Debian GNU/NetBSDHi there. I saw you changed a long-standing redirect into a stub article, and then someone proposed its deletion. Since the topic has been stale for 15 years apparently, it's unlikely the article has WP:POTENTIAL. If you want to re-create it, please discuss it on the relevant Talk pages. If you need any help, please don't hesitate to reply on my Talk page. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 16:06, 18 January 2017 (UTC) Your draft article, Draft:List of unicameral legislatures![]() Hello, Carrot official.

![]() A tag has been placed on Category:Italian football clubs established in 1967 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz Read!

It is not helpful to make a redirect for every possible misspelling of a name. And if there is an article on Alexa Dectis, it makes no sense to create a redirect at Alexa Dectis (actor) because readers will just search for her name, Alexa Dectis, and are unlikely to add "actor" to their search terms. Redirects should be for alternative names & terms that readers might search for, not more complicated versions of their names. Wikipedia:Redirect has a lot of helpful information that will be useful if you choose to spend time on this editing task. You might also visit Redirects for Discussion where editors discuss whether questionable redirects should be kept or deleted. Liz Read!

Per UTRS appeal #60827,will restore Talk Page Access so that user may request unblocking here. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 14:18, 17 July 2022 (UTC) Block appeal![]() Partofthemachine (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log)) Request reason: (Note: This is largely copied from a previous appeal that I was not able to post on the talk page.) I would like to take this opportunity to appeal the indefinite block I was given in April 2021. The reason I was blocked was primarily because of two factors. First, I nominated a largely legitimate user subpage for deletion because I disliked the user that created it. I now recognize that this was immature and a waste of editors' time. Second, I created user pages and user talk pages for new users even though this was not necessary, because those users can create pages of their own. Because it has now been over a year since I was blocked, I request to be unblocked per WP:SO.

A barnstar for you!
November 2022This is the only message I will leave here. I have very politely asked you to stay off my talk page. That is a perfectly normal request and on Wikipedia it is expected to be respected. I have been around on Wikipedia for a great many years and there are 629 people watching my talk page, there are 24,059 links to it and 2,733 editors have contributed to it. In 16 years you are only the 4th person I have asked to stay away. Take my advice, you have already invited sanctions and you are continuing to step on our policies. Enjoy your editing but do try avoid being a Wiki policeman until you have a lot more experience. Maybe Chris troutman is the person to ask, he's as experienced as I am - perhaps more so.

While "drive-by" nominations have always been discouraged, there is now a consensus that they are subject to removal without review. The relevant discussion can be found here, and any further questions can be posted at Wikipedia talk:Good article nominations. I see that you're a fairly experienced editor, but I would suggest nominating articles where you're the primary contributor so you can get a better grasp of the Good Article process.

Hello, Partofthemachine, I have a request to ask. When you are tagging pages for deletion, please post a notification on the talk page of the page creator letting them know of the deletion tagging. I see that you use Twinkle, which is great, but check your Twinkle Preferences and make sure that the box stating "Notify page creator" is checked off. It should then be checked off every time you tag a page for any type of deletion, CSD, PROD, AFD/RFD/MFD/etc. but it doesn't hurt to double-check and make sure it is checked. It's just best practices for editors who do patrolling so I'd appreciate you adopting this habit. Many thanks! Liz Read! Talk! 07:08, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
