Hello OnlyNano, Bavan Maval is a notable article on Wikipedia and Bavan Mavals were ruled and controlled by Koli chief and all of the information was removed by a user named DeccanFlood. DeccanFlood placing the fake details of Marathas on Bavan Maval. DeccanFlood added the sources in which is written that twelve mavals were controlled by Maratha and all information is about Twelve Mavals according to given sources but DeccanFlood hijacking the Bavan Maval article and removing Koli details of Bavan Maval. I request you to block DeccanFlood for infinity and revery his edits to stop his dictatorship on wikipedia. --Harbans Pathania (talk) 09:18, 22 June 2024 (UTC)Struck sock comment.

I just put the warning on your profile, which just has links to checkout. This is pretty much an edit war, so take a look at WP:WAR to settle the dispute. I'd only be feeding the war, then become involved myself. OnlyNanotalk15:07, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
Trinidad ISD Edit
YOU MADE THE MISTAKE TO CHANGE MY EDIT BACK BEACUSE IF YOU GO TO THE TRINIDAD ISD website, to the 2 page at the bottom, it says MICHAEL WARREN as principal and athletic director!!! Nwgregory2010 (talk) 22:50, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
Whether it's there or not, it's still unsourced. Copy the link where it says that, and create a {{cite web}} for it. OnlyNanotalk22:54, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I noticed that a user, who is probably one of the administrators, makes a lot of false information without sources or by citing irrelevant sources,
for example, he tries to insert something that does not exist, by inserting a page in Wikipedia, for example, something called Mocha. A Japanese drink that you made mocha Mocha is a Japanese drink that someone entered a Wikipedia page and typed "Mocha Kurdish"And hit it is the first and main form of mocha.
Wikipedia place The inclusion of correct and genuine content is with reliable sources, not the place of page references without sources that create false naming on something else in it. Please look into it. We are wondering how this page was created. It looks like people can make any page with wrong content and be supported.
The third round of the 2024 WikiCup ended on 28 June. As with Round 2, this round was competitive: each of the 16 contestants who advanced to Round 4 scored at least 256 points.
The following editors all scored more than 400 points in Round 3:
Sammi Brie (submissions) with 557 points, mostly from 1 featured article on KNXV-TV, 5 good articles, and 8 did you know nominations; and
AryKun (submissions) with 415 points, mostly from 1 featured article on Great cuckoo-dove, with a high number of bonus points from that article.
The full scores for round 3 can be seen here. So far this year, competitors have gotten 28 featured articles, 38 featured lists, 240 good articles, 92 in the news credits, and at least 285 did you know credits. They have conducted 279 featured article reviews, as well as 492 good article reviews and peer reviews, and have added 22 articles to featured topics and good topics.
Remember that any content promoted after 28 June but before the start of Round 4 can be claimed during Round 4, which starts on 1 July at 00:00 (UTC). Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether for a good article, featured content, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.
Anyway, you mentioned you'd be on the lookout for my requested edits, and I'm seeing that there are 152 edit requests ahead of me. Can you tell me what that means? Like does that mean months of waiting, or weeks? There is incorrect information on the current page that I would like to correct. I would also like to receive guidance on what edits in my request I can make now and which would go through, notwithstanding my COI. Thank you.
OH, and you said "add diffs" but I don't know how to access that. Here are my requested edits on the talk page: Talk:Perkins Eastman
I added a link to what diffs are in my rules section. The time it takes to get reviewed varies. Our COI discussion is all over, so it's fine that it was archived! It's random when you will get approved, so you will just have to wait, I guess. It's same with the articles for creation process. OnlyNanotalk01:22, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
Thanks -- so, while I'm waiting, do you think there are any basic, factual edits I can add myself to correct errors? Jserge630 (talk) 13:52, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
you said that "there are zero good sources that have a good reputation." I don't think that is true, Heise is a source with good reputation, also I checked similar articles like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Element_(software) and I don't see how their sources are more relevant, also there is already a Delta Chat page in the German Wikipedia https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_Chat
I am new in wikipedia, after reading a bit in the best practices I think the problem is that I cited too many sources that were not relevant enough or only mentioned Delta Chat together with other apps and not as the main topic of the article, I deleted those references.
Thanks for letting me know, and resubmitting. I'll take another look and verify, but I don't think I reviewed the notability of Heise. I'll keep you posted! OnlyNanotalk13:24, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
Not done I'm still going to have to decline, because it requires significant coverage on several independent and reliable sources. Heise seems like a pretty good source. But the rest are just primary sources or bad/not related sources.
shouldn't the fact that the page already exists in the German wikipedia https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_Chat be proof that the article is relevant? maybe some of the sources from there could be included
There is better sourcing on the de article. Just because it's published in the German Wikipedia doesn't automatically mean it's notable. OnlyNanotalk14:01, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
Article on Musician Bill MacKay
Hello OnlyNano
Thank you for looking at my submission. I admit to being confused about it being turned down again, especially since yesterday's edits include a feature piece on my subject matter, musician Bill MacKay, in The Washington Post, long considered one of America's and the world's premier newspapers.
I am left wondering what sort of possible more independent coverage could be possible, other than perhaps a longer piece in the same paper.
Please advise as I think Mr. MacKay's long public career warrants his inclusion as a subject in Wikipedia.
Thank you. I appreciate that. I replied to a Jake W who had written me, replied just now as well concerning disclosure of financial stake in the subject, of which I have none, and made that clear.
Please let me know if I can assist with further clarity on anything at all. I appreciate your work.
I have just done a re-working of the language. I hope & think it now hews closer to the neutral tone required for the article. Several things were simplified and opinions removed in favor of the straight facts. Thanks for your help, and letting me know how I can improve further if necessary. All the best,
I see that the article has been turned down again, and on reviewing it I don't see the instances of advertising-based or promotional language mentioned, and I took out everything I could that appeared to offer any kind of biased view towards the subject.
It appears to me to read as more as an entry listing events and work produced. Am I incorrect here?
Can you please give me advice on how to go forward with the article? I feel the subject has merit and is worthy of inclusion. Thanks for helping me do what I can do get the article in proper shape for submission.
One thing that would help would be to outline for me some of the lines that are problematic.
Jake W suggested I speak to you as I'd like to ask if you could please review my submission again. I have heavily edited and shaped it, and I believe I now understand much better how to format such an article. I am thankful to you and other staff for making it clear what sort of tones are appropriate and so on.
In any case, I'd be grateful if you'd lend your eyes to it again, thus forgoing the months-long process of waiting to be reviewed, again.
Alright, so I think it is best to explain in more length why I still would like to make the decision to decline the article in it's current state.
Let's start with the sourcing. I noticed immediately an article on The Guardian. They are a great spot to have an article about a subject in. It's reliable, free, easy for AfC reviewers to see notability. Though, the article in question included on the source list, [2], doesn't include a single mention of Bill MacKay. The NPR source is what I can say is pretty good, at best, unfortunately. The article itself seems to be almost like a passing mention, as the article is two short paragraphs. Another article from a good source, Pitchfork, is another (definitely) passing mention. I have to reactivate my library source for the New York Times, though that is also not an article about the subject, so that's not going to be the killer source to get this article published. However, I do like the Washington Post article. It's about him! It's from a reliable publication! And, best of all... it's not a passing mention! That's a good start! Just find more articles, like the Washington Post article, and add them into the article! While it's easier said than done, if you really think this musician is notable, then you should go look for those amazing articles! You can get more information about good sourcing tips at Wikipedia's page on verifiability, and the section on sourcing, on that very same page!
Next, we have to talk about the promotional language. I noticed that you had been warned recently about having a conflict of interest. I understand where you are coming from with the article. I slip up loads when getting overly promotional about a great restaurant I've visited, even when talking. That's normal! I like how well you've cleaned up the article, and I don't see any glaring issues.
In more general terms that would beef up your article, an infobox would be amazing! Those are a pre-built template (they can be made by you, if you want, though!) which get imported into your article. I would suggest adding Template:Infobox musical artist into the article. This is not a requirement to be accepted, but I feel better about accepting an article (much like submitting your essay in a binder, rather than the pages themselves) when I see infoboxes and content.
So, to sum up, I would like to see more sourcing, and ideally some more content (don't forget headings, and naming sections, such as History and Discography) and an infobox. I think the sourcing should be your #1 priority, though. Let me know if you need any more help! OnlyNanotalk20:30, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
Request on 21:15:03, 2 July 2024 for assistance on AfC submission by Callummccormack
Hey thanks for reviewing my first article, first of hopefully many.
I chose Sam Brodie as my first topic as he is relatively notable in my country and believed an article could be suitable, especially giving his recent chart entry which is a criteria of notability for musicians (Billboard charts). He has also earned a gold record which is another criteria of notability for musicians.
Is this article suitable to be a stub? (Scottish musician stubs) as there is relevant sourcing and notability, but maybe we can open it up for expansion?
He is one of the bigger musicians from Scotland too, as an artist, but I couldn't find much relevant sourcing on that - maybe some other editors could look through it more in depth if we created a stub and opened it up for expansion.
Looking through 'Category:Scottish record producers' there are many with less notability and sourcing as Brodie, but are labelled as stubs or not labelled at all with similar detail.
As you say, and I agree with, "it's on the brink of being accepted" and for my first article that's some positive feedback and any more would be very helpful. I could find more sourcing and notability but I don't want to overkill the article and keep it as neutral as possible, in hopes other writers could contribute too.

Hey there! If you were able to post this message, you should have no problem editing. Did you try editing any other pages except the one you were looking to edit? It's possible that that page could have had page protection on it. Try clicking on this link (a link to automatically open the editor for the page Epic of Gilgamesh), and see if there's any warnings or block notices. That page has no page protection, and should be editable by you. OnlyNanotalk14:40, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

All Sources from Xsoundbeatz
Hello @OnlyNano Thankyou that you reviewed the Draft Xsoundbeatz here are all sources from the Macedonian Producer Xsoundbeatz.
Hello @OnlyNano i can’t resubmit the draft Xsoundbeatz can you please edit the draft what best it’s because you now I’m here new and don’t know mutch about sources and what exactly to write
@Way1994, All these sources above are of the same poor quality as the ones already in the draft. We don't care what he or anyone on his team have to say about him. Most of these are just repeats of the same press release/SEO type of promotion. We need to see sources that are completely unconnected to him and are considered reliable by our standards to even begin to discuss inclusion. If you can present 3 such sources I would reconsider the rejection, please read through my previous link and WP:NMUSIC to see what we are looking for. McMatter(talk)/(contrib)01:37, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Hello Thankyou @OnlyNano that's all he has, but what about press serbia and eksluzivabahiphopsince these three are big media portals, i think These three are good for sources please check them out.
Sadly, my decision is final on the decline. Press Serbia is a press release website, which means they copy content of press releases, which doesn't count as a reliable source. The eksluzivaba site doesn't seem like a reliable source, and that's what the Press Serbia was copied from, probably. I could give you hiphopsince, but it needs more than one good source to prove credibility... OnlyNanotalk14:30, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
Again, this decision is final, until you update the article, but for example, HipHopMag is evidently a sponsored post. We're looking for articles that are more high quality and authentic. OnlyNanotalk17:11, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
Okay thank you @OnlyNano if there it’s something new i will contact you here.
Hello, OnlyNano. If it's of any interest to you, Way1994 is a sockpuppet of a long-term spammer evading global locks on multiple accounts. The account Way1994 is now globally locked too, and the draft, which had already been created and deleted a number of times, has been deleted again. JBW (talk) 17:30, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

I randomly picked the username as I primarily come from the marketing industry. Just received a warning message from the Wikipedia team. Do I need to change my username, if yes, how? --Marketingmentor (talk) 03:34, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
I'm assuming this is about User talk:Marketingmentor § Your username. As my note says, if you think your username doesn't violate policy, you can just reply explaining why. In this case, while a company named "Marketing Mentor" exists, this is only an issue if you represent that company, promote it, or are otherwise associated with it. Otherwise, your username is perfectly fine. Thanks for clearing that up. jlwoodwa (talk) 06:11, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I‘m Sophie! :) I‘m new to Wikipedia editing and just noticed that you’re my mentor. That’s why I checked out some of your work and I gotta say: I‘m impressed! You’re clearly very involved in Wikipedia already, which is great to see! I like your humour, especially in regards to Wikipedihol! I support the legalisation of it, too!

Hi OnlyNano, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the new page reviewer user right to your account. This means you now have access to the page curation tools and can start patrolling pages from the new pages feed. If you asked for this at requests for permissions, please check back there to see if your access is time-limited or if there are other comments.
This is a good time to re-acquaint yourself with the guidance at Wikipedia:New pages patrol. Before you get started, please take the time to:
Hey OnlyNano, I see above you were recently granted the page reviewer right; welcome, the NPP queue is too long and we're in constant need of more support.
I'm reaching out here because I have undone your review of Doug Showalter as you marked it reviewed after tagging it for speedy deletion. I just wanted to give a quick reminder that the only deletion process that marks something as reviewed is nominating for deletion at AFD. Take a minute to review the tutorial on the NPP page, or feel free to ask me on my talk page if you have any questions, or the project discussion page if you are uncertain about a review, or leave it in the queue for another editor to take a look at.
Thanks for noticing my mistake! That's a lot of help, as I'm still getting used to CSD nominations within the context of NPP, and with a variety of other new decision paths. Regards, OnlyNanotalk00:16, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello, OnlyNano. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "OpenBullet".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
