Deletion requests in your userspace
Hi Thornfield Hall! I see you've asked form some user sub pages to be deleted. Not a worry, that's done. Just a note you can request them to be deleted under criteria U1 rather than G8. Not that it matters particularly, but thought I'd let you know! Pedro : Chat  10:39, 27 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Thank you. I forgot which method I had used to delete the ones before, which method causes the least inconvenience? Thornfield Hall (talk) 20:59, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Ancient astronauts. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 03:41, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Hello, it's general policy to not name minor children- really any children at all, but especially minors- unless they have articles themselves. 331dot (talk) 07:50, 15 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Where is that policy defined? The articles on Elon Musk, Al Pacino, and Adam Levine all include such details. It seems unlikely such high profile articles would be violating a policy for that long. — THORNFIELD HALL (Talk) 08:02, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
