Speedy deletion nomination of Gretchen Banks
Hello Starship9000,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Gretchen Banks for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, Cdtew (talk) 23:28, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did to SpinSpider, without verifying it by citing reliable sources. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Sum mer PhD (talk) 04:41, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from SpinSpider.

Hi, and merry Christmas! Regarding speedy deletion, this can be done via Twinkle, or via the Special:NewPagesFeed using WP:CURATE. Make sure you understand how the processes work before jumping in, as inappropriate use of these tools may lead to editing privileges being limited. hope this helps, all best, Mabalu (talk) 03:35, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

PROD-related categories
Hi, Category:All articles proposed for deletion is automatically included if a PROD template is placed on an article and should not be added by hand, because that screws up things if an article is de-PRODded. Also, I saw that you created Category:Proposed deletion as of 28 December 2012. That is not necessary either, because these cats are created automatically by bots.

Recent deletions
Hi. I noticed a lot of articles you've recently created qualified for speedy deletion. You might want to review the page I linked (as well as the notability page) because it seems you might not understand what exactly is admissible as a Wikipedia page and what is not - generally only things that exhibit significant coverage in secondary sources (meaning a lot of reliable sources about the topic) can become articles. If you have any questions, feel free to let me know on my talk page. Cheers,  Intelligent  sium  01:20, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

your question
Please not ask me questions on my main talk p.; the archive p. for January is where i will move questions and comments I get asked about during january after dealing with them.

You ask me how to delete a afc page. I assume you mean how to delete a page you created, and then decided not to work on further, because the reviewer's comments convinced you that it was not going to be accepted despite further editing, or because you realized that yourself, or because you just made an error in starting it.

the way to do it is to add at the top of the page the line

It will then be deleted in a few hours. This is also true for any article you start in mainspace.  DGG ( talk ) 22:19, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for trying to keep Wikipedia free of vandalism. However, one or more edits you labeled as vandalism, such as the edit at Jean Martianay, are not considered vandalism under Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word "vandalism" than common usage, and mislabeling edits as vandalism can discourage newer editors. Please read NOTVAND for more information on what is and is not considered vandalism. Thank you. ''And this is another example of what I can only call incompetence. Of course these edits a. were not vandalism and b. improved the article.'' Drmies (talk) 05:42, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

STOP
Okay, Starship, you need to take a break in general. I've deleted the page you made about the glitch Pokemon, as it was a copyright violation of Bulbapedia. Bulbapedia's license is incompatible with ours, so we can't take material directly copied from there, and we certainly can't take material copied from anywhere if you don't say where you're copying it from. The PROD tags are a problem as well, as others have told you. Seriously, take a break; I don't want to block you, but I will if that's what it takes.

 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or sock puppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page.

Please also stop patrolling  any  more pages and listing  them  for deletion until  you  have significantly  more experience (over 1,000 mainspace edits) and read and thoroughly  understood the instructions at  WP:NPP  and WP:Deletion.

 * Starship, those are not the conditions Kudpung set for an unblock. These conditions are quite clear, and they are a minimum before I would agree to an unblock. In fact, what you're saying is exactly incorrect: if you see a page not written in English, you will not request speedy deletion. That's part of the unblock conditions, not the whole of it. And I continue to doubt that you know how your contributions were disruptive--not just the deletion requests, but some other edits as well. Drmies (talk) 17:38, 15 January 2013 (UTC)


 * What should I do if I see a page written in a different language but not english? ==Starship9000 (talk) 21:37, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, there's a place on Wikipedia to request translation into English here. If and only if the foreign-language article is identical to an existing article on a foreign language Wikipedia (the German Wikipedia, for example), you can tag it for speedy deletion under A2, but again, that's only if it's in a foreign language and identical to another article on another Wikipedia.  Otherwise, follow the instructions at Pages needing translation that I linked earlier to request a translation into English.  If the request goes unanswered for two weeks or more, then you can nominate it for deletion, but not before. Writ Keeper &#9863;&#9812; 21:51, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

It looks perfect then it used to look when I proposed it for deletion for a unsourced BLP but now it looks perfect. ==Starship9000 (talk) 21:41, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

Do you have any ideas for new articles?
If you do, let me know by responding below this message. I've created a number of articles and I'd be happy to help you develop your ideas and find good sources before publishing them on Wikipedia. Andrew327 17:07, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

Unblock requests
Hi Starship. You have still not understood the conditions for your unblock. This leads me to think that either English is not  your main language, or that  you  are still  in  Primary/Elementary school and your reading  skills are not yet  perfect, but I apologise if I'm wrong on either count - I can only guess.
 * Just so you know what you must and must not do when your current block expires, here it  is again:

Additionally you are strongly advised to go on a mentoring  programme at  WP:Adopt where you  will  learn all  the ins and outs of editing. Please understand that if you  don't  follow these conditions, to prevent you from  disrupting the Wikipedia any admin can block you again without warning and for a much  longer time. I hope you  understand, and if not, you are welcome to ask me any questions on my talk page. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 23:03, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) You will not patrol or tag any new pages or other pages until you have made at least 1,000 edits to articles.
 * 2) You will create any new articles in your Sandbox first and ask an established user to  review it  before it  is moved to  Mainspace.
 * If you are interested in being adopted (which is highly recommended), simply copy and past the following text onto your user page and an experienced editor will stop by and help you:

Kudpung, I got what I need to do when I am unblocked and I made 816 edits so is that good enough or I need more edits? Starship9000 (talk) 01:18, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Kudpung was referring to article edits, of which you have only 300+ right now. He's saying that if he unblocks you, you can't patrol new pages etc. until after you have at least 1,000 article edits.  I presume he's making this condition so that you will concentrate on article edits and by doing that learn more about what goes into making an article, and what is and isn't acceptable - so you don't continue to make the same kinds of mistakes you've been making up to now. Beyond My Ken (talk) 01:26, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Does that mean I can not propose articles for deletion? And once my block expires, am I allowed to create a article then put it on the sandbox or only create it on the sandbox?--Starship9000 (talk) 13:21, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, now that your block has expired, please do not propose articles for deletion, and please only create articles in the sandbox. Writ Keeper &#9863;&#9812; 14:10, 17 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Writ Keeper, do I only propose articles for deletion when I make it to 1,000 edits? My block expired today.                            --Starship9000 (talk) 22:42, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Recap
Starship, although it's been explained to you  several  times, you  seem to  be having  difficulty  understanding. I appreciate that  it is probably  because you  are still  only  in  7th Grade, so  because we want  to  encourgage very  young  users to  contribute - and get  it  right - I'll repeat  again  what  we have asked you  to  do: I'm sure you  will  understand why we have had to impose these conditions -  all we're doing is trying to help you, so  if you're not  sure of anything, drop  in  at  the   the Teahouse (see above) where a bunch  of experienced editors are always ready  to  help  newcomers and you  are also  welcome to  ask  me for advice on my  talk  page. To know how many edits you  have made to  different  parts of the Wikipedia, click  here. Good luck, Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:07, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) Do not  patrol and tag  any  new pages for anything until you  have made at  least  1,000 edits to Wikipedia articles. This does not  include minor spelling  or punctuation corrections, etc. It  does not  include edits to  your  user pages, dab pages, redirects, or other discussion pages or AfD.
 * 2) Create any  new articles in your sandbox first, then ask an admin to  review it  before it  is moved to  article space.

Kudpong, does that means that I can't particapate in articles for deletion? --Starship9000 (talk) 02:42, 19 January 2013 (UTC)


 * I think it's best  that you stay away from all management areas util you  have 1,000 edits constructively  improving  and expanding  articles. That  means that  you  do not  place 'orphan' tags on articles -  in  fact  you  don't put  any  tags on any  articles at  all. This shouldn't  be so  difficult to  understand. It's a condition of you staying unblocked. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:19, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Disruptive edits?
Starship, please stop making disruptive edits to pages. You are back to the same old nonsense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Julser1 (talk • contribs) 03:53, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Julser: Can you please provide diffs? I've looked through S9000's recent edits and I'm not sure what you're referring to. Beyond My Ken (talk) 04:01, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I've also collapsed your AN/I report as being premature. Please wait for a response from S9000, and please provide specifics about what you consider to be "disruptive". Beyond My Ken (talk) 04:22, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, as far as I can see, Julser undid one "vandalism" edit that was actually anything but and another thing that was also not vandalism. Julser, you are too inexperienced to be making these sorts of calls - especially with your limited history being not so rosy. Lukeno94 (talk) 10:07, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Alright, I will stop disruptive edits. --Starship9000 (talk) 14:11, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Adoption offer
Starship9000, I see that above some of Wikipedia's most respected administrators as well as some other great users have strongly suggested you seek adoption. I am here to offer to admit you to my adoption school, where you complete a series of lessons and tests before a final exam that will give you a working knowledge of the encyclopedia as a whole as well as its policy. If you would be interested in taking me up on this offer, please reply here, and I will set up a personal classroom for you. Respectfully, Go   Phightins  !  16:53, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Your sandbox draft of Flint Covered Bridge
Hi Starship, I see you've submitted this article at AfC. It really is not ready. You hav not said where the bridge is (you list road names with no context at all), and have put it in a Vermont category, but without any text saying it is in Vermont). You also cite no sources at all. More minor issues include that you have not bolded the article name the first time it's used in the text, and you don't have any wikilinks to other articles. I'm pretty sure there is an infobox for brdiges you could also include to help both the reader and to guide you in what else to add to the article. Lady  of  Shalott  17:45, 19 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Should a editor request the sandbox page about the Flint Covered Bridge in Vermont for deletion or should we improve it more? --Starship9000 (talk) 21:06, 19 January 2013 (UTC)


 * I think you should improve it more, starting with LadyofShalott's suggestions. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 21:14, 19 January 2013 (UTC)


 * LadyofShalott, I actually improved the article User:Starship9000/sandbox that has information about the Flint Covered Bridge which does not have a article yet. I added vermont related category's as well as infoboxes on the bridge and NHRP for the bridge. Please do check the sandbox to see if its good or not. If it is, then should I resend it to Articles for Creation. If its not, then I will improve it.  (AFC)?--Starship9000 (talk) 01:22, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Do you have a source for the information? You can check out Referencing for beginners for information on how to add it to the article or ask help from any of us here. Ryan Vesey 01:28, 20 January 2013 (UTC)


 * No, I do not have a reference on it. I am getting ready to add one to the article then we need to check if it actually is more improved. If yes, then we should resend it to articles for creation. If no, tehn I will improve it more until it meets the wikipedia notability. --Starship9000 (talk) 01:31, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I made some improvements to the article, and although it would benefit greatly from being expanded, it will be ready for the mainspace as soon as we can get citations for the content. Ryan Vesey 01:33, 20 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks Ryan Vesey. I think you should go resend it to articles for creation that way we should create the article                Flint Covered Bridge. I think it should be requested again for AFC. Thanks. --Starship9000 (talk) 01:36, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I'll recreate it as soon as you can get a source for the information. I'm looking for a free image right now. Question, did you get any information from this site?  Your text was very close to the text of the site.  We need to be very careful not to write anything on Wikipedia that is too much like the sources, otherwise you can get in trouble for copyright infringement.  It's good now, and it's possible that it was a coincidence, but I'm just letting you know. Ryan Vesey 01:40, 20 January 2013 (UTC)


 * I putted a reference for it. And how I got the information about the bridge is that I looked up facts about the Flint Cvoered Bridge on

www.Bridgehunter.com|Flint Covered Bridge.com. I might put a picture of the bridge on the page today. And I will be careful about the part were you told me about the copyright infringement. What do you think I should do after I put the image for the bridge? Thanks.
 * Hey Starship, I found an image somebody had uploaded and I found a good NRHP source that gave some information on the bridge and the date it was listed and I added that to the article. I moved it to Flint Covered Bridge for you. Ryan Vesey 02:01, 20 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks Ryan Vesey. --Starship9000 (talk) 02:16, 20 January 2013 (UTC)


 * The article as is stands is good. Starship, if you can aim for at least that quality as you create your articles, you'll be in good shape. Remember that providing references for your material is a key component of creating a decent article. :) Lady  of  Shalott  06:27, 20 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I might create a amusement park ride or roller coaster article in the sandbox. I might create the page                      List of Drievliet attractions and List of Kings Island attractions. --Starship9000 (talk) 14:19, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

Notable rides
As a friendly talk-page stalker of Astros4477, I wanted to offer some assistance in response to your question on his talk page. A very good example of a notable ride is the Windseeker's rival attraction, the SkyScreamer at Six Flags theme parks around the country. Then there's flat rides like the Enterprise, Frisbee, Top Spin and Scrambler. Are you wanting to prepare an article about a particular model of ride, or about a specific installation of one? If it's the former, be bold and have at it. If it's the latter (for example, an article about the Windseeker found at Cedar Point), you would need to provide information from reliable sources indicating why that particular installation is notable enough for its own article. If you have other questions or comments, please feel free to leave them here or on my talk page. Good luck! -- McDoob AU93  18:30, 24 January 2013 (UTC)


 * I don't think having 6 WindSeeker articles is a good idea. They're all at Cedar Fair and are fine in one nice article.-- Dom497 ( talk ) 21:20, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

January 2013 edits
I know you mean well, but unfortunately, a number of your recent edits, including this one and this one, have added uncited information into the articles. More specifically, it appears to be original analysis on your part, something that Wikipedia also discourages. We cannot make deductions or statements based on our own interpretations of what is already out there. Put another way, instead of one of us saying that Flight Deck is the only suspended coaster at Kings Island, we would need a reliable source making that same statement; then it would be allowed. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to ask. -- McDoob AU93  20:31, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Roller Coaster GA's
There is no simple way to describe how to get a roller coaster article to Good Article status so please don't get intimidated by how long this message is.

For the sake of explaining, I am going to use Intimidator (roller coaster) which is one of my GA's. Though this article is complete it's easier to explain how I got to a state rather then how to get there. The first thing you should ask yourself is what the article must have:


 * A history section
 * A ride experience section
 * Depending if the ride has won any awards, an award section
 * A lead

History: This section should obviously have some history about the coaster. The first thing should be what happened before the roller coaster was announced. Where any attractions removed/moved to make room for the coaster? Did the park launch teaser's to build hype for the announcement? If this info is available, then it should be included. However, if there is a coaster that you know the park had teasers but you can't find any sources, LEAVE IT OUT! Next comes the announcement. This only has to be one sentence but if you can find sources that describe how the ride was announced, who announced it, etc then include it. To find when the ride was announced, you can go to the coaster's RCDB page. For Intimidator, its page is here. At the top of the page there are 3 tabs. One of them say press releases which will lead to the press release with a date. In the article, a basic sentence would say something along the lines of, "Intimidator was announced to the public on August 26, 2009. Next comes construction. When did construction begin/end? When was the lift hill completed? When was the layout completed? These are all the things that you should try to find. Typically, this may require you to search quite a bit. If you are working on an older roller coaster it will be likely that you can't find any reliable construction sources which will mean you will have to leave it out. However, you can probably go to the parks website, copy the url, and go to [Way Back Machine] and see if you find anything in the archives (sometimes this will work and sometimes is won't). After construction, the final sentence should be when the attraction opened, "After construction and testing was completed, Intimidator opened on March 27, 2010". If you find a source that mentiones that ride soft-opened (opening for a limited time before officially opening), then you should put, "...Intimidator soft-opened on ____ before officially opening on March 27, 2010". Now, if there is any additional info that doesn't fall under construction, announcement, or opening, in a new paragraph or sub-section, you should put that info. For example, in the Intimidator article there was a first rider auction. I'm not going to explain what to put in that section as it is right in the Intimidator article.

Ride experience: This section should be divided into 3 parts; a description on what riding the coaster is like (pretty much searching a POV of the coaster on youtube and translating the video into words), Trains (How many trains does the coaster have? How many cars does one train have? How many seats does one car have? How many riders can one train hold? Also, if there is any other info you think should be included and can be sourced about the trains such as if the trains are themed as anything you may wish to add it), and Track (How long is the track? How high is the lift? What is the angle of the first drop? What type of braking does the coaster use (only include if you can find at least one reliable source)? What colour is the track/rails/supports?).

Awards: This will take some time to do. The Golden Ticket Awards and Mitch Hawker's Best Roller Coaster Poll are the best places to look. For the GTA, you will have to manually search through the magazine to find if the coaster won anything. Links to the magazine can be found here (ref numbers 18 - 30). In that article, ref #31 leads to results for the Mitch Hawker's awards. If the roller coaster indeed has won awards, it should be included in the article in a form of a table.

Lead: Leads will vary from article to article so just take a look at other articles to get an idea of what to write for that part (The lead is like the intro to the article, it can be found in every article at the very top (first paragraph)).

Pictures: Photos are great to have, but optional. You should first look at Wikipedia Commons for any pictures and Flickr as those are good places to find photos (be careful with flickr as only a few pictures can be used on Wikipedia because of licensing).

This is a basic guideline and in no way guarantees that the article will be promoted

If you have any other questions please leave a message on my talkpage.-- Dom497 ( talk ) 19:40, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Unblock conditions
Hi Starship. You still  only  hvae 370 edits to  articles and it  will  take time to  make more, so  please do  not  be in  a hurry -  you  still  have a lot to  learn. From questions you  are asking  on my  talk page and the talk pages of other users, I'm  still  not  sure that  you  have fully  understood the conditions for remaining  unblocked. So here they are again: You do  not patrol or tag pages for anything  at all  until you  have made at least  1,000 edits to  articles. This 1,000 is a minimum and may  be more depending  on  the circumstances. The 1,000 edits will not include edits of yours that have been reverted or that are problematic such as needing  references. Please also consider GoPhiting's offer to  teach  you  how to  edit  Wikipedia because now that  someone has offered to  mentor you, there is no excuse for you  to  make any  mistakes. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 23:27, 26 January 2013 (UTC)


 * I understand now. I did not propose any articles for deletion. I will go remove twinkle of my gadgets right now. Thanks for telling me.that. I understand Kudpung so thanks for telling me the goals to stay unblocked. I have also been creating articles in my sandbox page as well as creating draft articles that looks like this: User:Starship9000/Flint Covered Bridge. I might create more amusement park and bridge related draft articles. Thanks. --Starship9000 (talk) 23:34, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
