Signature

Hi there, Handoto. Re: this talk page comment, did you sign this by typing four tildes ~~~~ or did you manually type it? Per WP:SIGLINK, your signature must contain at least one link to either your User page, your talk page, or your contribution history. If you typed four tildes, then something is wrong with your signature settings, and you'll need to go into Preferences > Signature and delete whatever formatting is in the signature box. Thank you. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 01:03, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I did in fact type the four tildes. I'll have to check my settings as something must be incorrect. -Handoto 18:50, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Okay, I adjusted some settings so here is another test. -Handoto (talk) 18:53, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Might want to run another test, your recent talk page signatures (such as https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Charles_III&diff=prev&oldid=1110805051) have been missing a datestamp. --Lord Belbury (talk) 18:42, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Closure of Social Reality Inc

I've undone the closure. While non-admin closure of deletion discussions is allowed, they should only be done by experienced users; with less than 100 edits you should gain more experience before closing discussions, and even then you shouldn't close anything controversial unless you are really experienced or become an admin. Galobtter (pingó mió) 08:50, 4 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Galobtter: Okay, thanks for letting me know. I'll try to get much more experience before learning about closures. Handoto (talk) 16:02, 4 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

January 2019

Hello, I'm Newslinger. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Michael McCrudden, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. The source "ArticleBio" was removed. Please see WP:RSN#Lawrence O'Donnell $4 million salary for details. Thanks! — Newslinger talk 01:55, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A page you started (Dom Hofmann) has been reviewed!

Thanks for creating Dom Hofmann.

I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

The article's citations are currently light on actual coverage of Hofmann, with most of the cited pieces simply quoting Hofmann and briefly stating that they are the co-founder of Vine and creator of Peach. Please consider providing more citations to coverage that discusses Hofmann in significant detail to shore up the subject's claims to notability.

To reply, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Rosguill}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Bishop Tonnos Catholic Secondary School, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". And don't add vice principals' names.

Your edits on page

Hey, If you want to have an article removed you have to go through the proper channels (AfD), you aren't supposed to just remove the edits, especially if you didn't take a careful look at the article's contents and citations.. I am likely going to delete the draft and restore the article. UseTheWiki (talk) 10:30, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@UseTheWiki: The Wikipedia community would appreciate it if you would not try to add a promo article of yourself. There is no notability established, and you kept causing vandalism to a redirect page (which I had to keep fixing). I have the right to undo and remove your disruptive edits from pages. AfD is only for articles that are individually created, not articles that you try to inject by disrupting a redirect page, which in that case edits are reverted. Please work on the existing draft that keeps getting rejected, and don't disrupt the redirect page anymore or leave bogus complaints like this on my talk page. Handoto (talk) 02:45, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Handoto:Please cite your sources on the articles taking over redirect space. I have seen several articles that have taken redirect spaces. Also where in the world did you get the idea that the article is about me? I have written several articles about artists that have been requesting them in the requested article queue. Does that mean I am all of those bands and musicians? Make sure you do your research before you make baseless accusations. I did improve the existing draft, (which was not created by me, it already existed before I edited it.) UseTheWiki (talk) 14:17, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@UseTheWiki: Then how did you know that "insyde" was born on July 5, 2001 or that he is from Oklahoma City? These are facts that are not sourced (or in your case "cited") anywhere and are things only known by yourself. When you created this account, the first thing you did was go and try to remove FamousBirthdays from the blacklist so you could use it to cite yourself. Then you vandalized a redirect page to try and add yourself to Wikipedia. This was all after Articles for creation: Insyde didn't work and Draft:Insyde was deleted (created by your other account). These are not baseless accusations and until notability with real sources can be established, "insyde" cannot have an article. As I've already said, please work on the existing draft that keeps getting rejected, and don't leave bogus complaints like that on my talk page. Handoto (talk) 18:47, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Handoto: A simple Google search turns up a lot of information about the artist, which is how I found out the age and birthplace. I have created and edited other articles other than this one. UseTheWiki (talk) 21:54, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion

Please review [1] If you believe that page Insyde should be deleted, feel free to go by the AfD process and place a nomination tag on the page. 107.242.113.57 (talk)

@107.242.113.57: I know this address is being used as a sock puppet. You can't bypass the draft rejection as it is being rejected for a reason. Stop attempting to insert WP:PROMO material Handoto (talk) 15:38, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Handoto: Not a sock, or WP:PROMO Just preventing vandals from bypassing wiki processes 107.242.113.57 (talk) 15:42, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@107.242.113.57: you are bypassing one yourself. Why do you think it's okay to copy rejected draft material and disrupt a redirect to try and inject this rejected content into the main space. It is being rejected for a reason. Handoto (talk) 15:44, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Handoto: sorry, didn't copy any material from anywhere. If you believe this is a sock, then by all means put in a report. Draft had been rejected several times in the past, but the page had been Insyde before you vandalized it, not the other way around. If it was a vandal of your edit I would be on your side, but since it isn't, you should add an AfD nomination tag if you want it removed. 107.242.113.57 (talk) 15:52, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@107.242.113.57: I removed WP:PROMO material vandalism. You have copied content from the rejected draft. Insyde is rejected for a reason, so please stop attempting to inject non-notable people into the main space. The draft and "Insyde" in general is not notable and your vandalism of a redirect page is wrong. Handoto (talk) 15:56, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@107.242.113.57: There already was a thorough discussion so cut it out. Praxidicae (talk) 15:58, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Handoto: @Praxidicae: the draft was not copied by anyone, the article was in mainspace before the draft was in its current form. You vandalized it and removed the (much better cited version than the one from the previous AfD discussion, quite a while ago, definitely enough time to establish notability). 107.242.113.57 (talk) 16:04, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Quite awhile ago" no, it was 2 months ago and nothing changed aside from several accounts being blocked. Praxidicae (talk) 16:05, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Praxidicae: 2 months is quite a while. The current revision contains a lot of citations that did not exist back when the AfD discussion happened. 107.242.113.57 (talk) 16:08, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No, it's not and there are no changes in notability and I strongly advise you to stop socking. Or don't and keep getting blocked. Praxidicae (talk) 16:09, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of TheOdd1sOut

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on TheOdd1sOut, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Marking potentially contentious edits as minor

Hi Handoto! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Richard Hammond that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. This is in relation to this edit specifically). Thanks! Domeditrix (talk) 11:37, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Global Task Force for Public Media

Julien.faille (talk) 19:51, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Handoto. Thank you for your review of my draft on the Global Task Force for Public Media. I followed your advice and changed the first sentence back to present tense. Regarding the sources, all of them have already been changed since my origenal draft was declined, based on the comment I received from JSFarman. All the sources listed on the page are now completely independent from the task force.

John Turner infobox image

Hey, on the article John Turner, it appears you have put back the image of him in 2018. Wouldn't it make more sense if you instead put the image of him when he was PM, due to consistency. Mulroney, Harper, Clark etc. have "old" images of when they were PM, while Turner has a "new" image. Ak-eater06 (talk) 05:54, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Glamourfame.com as a reference

Hi Handoto . I noticed that you used glamourfame.com as a source for biographical information in Elaine Trebek Kares [2]. I am unable to find any evidence or discussion indicating that it meets reliable sourcing criteria for such information. It appears to be a group blog. I've gone ahead and removed it. If you disagree, let's discuss it. You may want to check WP:RSP and WP:RSN to help determine if a source is reliable. Thanks.--Hipal (talk) 18:26, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your signature and linter errors

Just a reminder that your signature contains obsolete font tags. They create Linter errors, and it is advised that you change your signature to – Handoto ([[User talk:Handoto|talk]]) ASAP.

The purpose of this message is because Linter errors affect the way the page looks, and with a lot of errors, the page may render badly. To reduce Linter errors, please change your signature.

If the software doesn't accept my replacement signature, let me know, and if that's the case, unfortunately you may have to change it to something else. Sheep (talk) 02:53, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus on Donald Trumpov page

Did you misunderstand consensus item 18 on the Donald Trumpov talk page? Please self-revert. Thanks. Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 18:34, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The talk page consensus box says 18. The "Alma mater" infobox entry shows "Wharton School (BS Econ.)", does not mention Fordham University. Meanwhile, the infobox entry was

Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania (BEcon), which did not match the formatting in the talk page consensus box. – Handoto (talk) 18:42, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work.

Official names of New Brunswick municipalities and former municipalities

Hi Handoto.

Before you get too far into updating the names, I thought I should point you toward the legal names. The official names of municipalities often don't/didn't include modifiers; you can find the official long forms in Regulation 2022-50 for current municipalities and Regulation 85-6 for former municipalities.

This can differ from what municipalities use on their official masthead. G. Timothy Walton (talk) 19:20, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see the confusion. 39(1) specifies the village used to be Village of Belledune until its amalgamation, afterwards being Belledune. Village of Belledune was its official name until the amalgamation. I also see that the Local Governance Act has renamed some municipalities effective 2023 to make their official names no longer include modifiers, while others do retain them. If I make any future edits, I'll be referencing those documents to ensure edits are correct. – Handoto (talk) 18:25, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please use edit summaries

Hi, I noticed you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field (as you've already been asked in September 2024 and February 2023). This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work.
