Hi. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for working to improve the site with your edits to List of suicides, as it really improves the article. However, the portion of your edit in which you mention the method of suicide edit had to be reverted, because it is not found in the source you cited. If you want to re-add that detail, please do so only if you can accompany it with a citation that supports it. If you ever have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks.

List of suicides
Hi. Thanks for adding all those entries to List of suicides. I did my best to add archive info to them, as well as general copyediting. However, I later saw that one of them, Keith Wayne, was supported solely by a citation of Find a Grave. However, the information on Find a Grave is at least partially user-generated, which like IMDB or Patch Media, violates WP:USERG. I didn't know that it was user-generated until I checked at the Reliable Sources Noticeboard, and found that there were a number of past discussions in which editors indicated this, such as here, here, and here. If you find a reliable source for it, feel free to re-add it. Thanks again. Nightscream (talk) 19:46, 27 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi. I appreciate all the additions you're making to the List of suicides article, but could you please make sure that the citations have the correct information?


 * In the first place, the date format has to be consistent in an article, and the one for that aritcle is MM-DD-YYYY.


 * Second, for some reason, the parameters in your citations are sometimes filled with nonsensical information. For example, your entry of Jay Stewart contained the following info:




 * As you can see, the parameters are filled with the names of social media companies. I'm guessing you didn't do this on purpose; maybe you used a bot or something to assist. But it's a good idea to make sure that your edits come out right, whether by previewing them beforehand, or checking them after. Can you please pay closer attention to these things? You're a valued contributor to that article, but I end up having to clean up after you when you leave this stuff in the article. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 02:23, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Left Brain (rapper)


Hello, ToFf. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Left Brain".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the, , or  code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! --TheImaCow (talk • contribs) 06:20, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Craig Xen (July 19)
 Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk&action=edit&section=new&nosummary=1&preload=Template:Afc_decline/HD_preload&preloadparams%5B%5D=Draft:Craig_Xen Articles for creation help desk] or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Robert McClenon was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: This draft has been Rejected by a reviewer in the Articles for Creation review process. DO NOT resubmit this draft or attempt to resubmit this draft or prepare or submit a draft that is substantially the same as this draft without discussing the reasons for the rejection. You may request a discussion with the rejecting reviewer, or you may request a discussion with the community at the Teahouse. A discussion will not necessarily agree to a resubmission.

It should be noted that the reviewer has not decided that the topic is not notable. An article on the topic may be accepted in the future. However, there is no reason to think that this draft will become an article, and there is evidence that this draft will never become an article. If there is to be an article on this topic, this draft must first be blown up and started over.

If this draft is resubmitted without discussion and without starting it over, or if an attempt is made to resubmit this draft or an equivalent draft, without addressing the reasons for the Rejection by starting over, a partial block or a topic-ban may be requested against the submitting editor.

You may ask for advice about Rejection at the Teahouse.

This draft does not appear to indicate which of the musical notability criteria is satisfied. If at least one of the criteria is satisfied, please revise this draft appropriately, with a reliable source, if necessary stating on the talk page which criterion is met, and resubmit.

You may ask for advice about the musical notability criteria at the Teahouse.

The last two times that this draft was submitted, it was declined with a statement that the notability criterion should be noted in AFC comments or on the talk page of this draft, and that the submitter could ask for advice. It has twice been resubmitted with minor additions, but without any explanation of how the subject satisfies either musical notability or general notability. These declines and resubmissions are a waste of time of the submitter and of the reviewer. The submitter does not appear to be ready to explain why the subject is notable.

This does not mean that the subject is not notable, and it does not mean that the subject is notable. It does mean that the submitter is not making any progress toward demonstrating notability, and that this draft should be blown up and started over.

Concern regarding Draft:Craig Xen
Hello, ToFf. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Craig Xen, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Draft space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for article space.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion under CSD G13. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available here.
