Your latest article
Hey WayneGriffin, I recently moved your most recent article to User:WayneGriffin/sandbox because the mainspace is used for articles, not for user-related content which was what that page basically was. Feel free to continue to update your findings on that page but please do not add such pages to the mainspace. Feel free to move that page to any other title as long as it is under your userpage (User:WayneGriffin/x). If you'd like to ask any questions, feel free to hit me up on my talk page or reply to this with, Cheers,   Anarchyte  ( work  &#124;  talk )   12:13, 7 April 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm afraid I have to disagree. Wikipedia is not a web host for holding personal web pages unrelated to work on building the encyclopaedia, even if that page mentions reading Wikipedia. This applies no matter what the title of the page. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 17:13, 7 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. From what I could remember of the page, it read a bit like what may be included on a first version of a userpage (User:WayneGriffin), so I moved it to their sandbox in case they wanted to have it as their userpage (I don't want to intrude into their userpage). Though, it seems they haven't edited since then so I guess U5 would apply, sorry for the hassle. Cheers,  Anarchyte  ( work  &#124;  talk )   02:48, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
