Speedy deletion nomination of QuickTime 7.7.1
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 QuickTime 7.7.1, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- The page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. (See section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do.
- It is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. (See section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Wikipedia has standards for the minimum necessary information to be included in short articles; you can see these at Wikipedia:Stub. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
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 removed 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. — Andy W.

Proposed deletion of Amino (app)
The article Amino (app) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No indication of what the app even does, let alone any useful information sufficient to conduct a productive search for information about it online.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Largoplazo (talk) 04:13, 9 November 2016 (UTC)
Octane Games moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Octane Games, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. czar 15:28, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
December 2016
Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Black Mesa (video game), 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. Thank you.

Tone
The tone of one of your recent edit comments was a tad harsh. However true it was, the Wikipedia ecosystem works best when we avoid "raising the temperature". (sorry for preaching!) Snori (talk) 08:35, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Reversion to my edit
You marked my correction of some Gaelic on Holyrood Park as "vandalism". I actually used the correct spelling. The letter "y" is not found in the language. Please look up a few dictionaries online!
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/seileach
- my bad. —apap04¿ (talk) 15:05, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
- i was unfamiliar with that word. but thanks for correcting me. —apap04¿ (talk) 15:17, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
per removal
https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Category:Pages_using_infobox_government_agency_with_unknown_parameters
Am currently trying to decipher where the unknown parameter is so I can remove it to reduce backlog, if you can help; that'd be great. My contributions show I have edited articles to remove unknown parameters before. 78.144.82.158 (talk) 22:10, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
- Yeah, sorry about that. I did remove the general note so you're fine. --apap04¿ (talk) 22:11, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
- I have an old account year from long ago, I rarely edit and this past week is anomaly per amount edited, I understand why you reverted and am not angry. There's a lot more to be angry about in this place trust me :). 78.144.82.158 (talk) 22:16, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
- Gotcha. 👌 --apap04¿ (talk) 22:19, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
- I mostly edit on outside wikis so if you want me to help you out or help me out on my stuff just let me know. 78.144.82.158 (talk) 22:22, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

Rollback and reviewer granted
Hello Apap04. Your account has been granted the "rollbacker" and "pending changes reviewer" user rights. These user rights allow you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes and quickly revert the edits of other users.
- Please keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin).
- The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection enabled is located at Special:StablePages. You may find the following pages useful to review:
- Wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes, the guideline on reviewing.
- Wikipedia:Pending changes, the summary of the use of pending changes.
- Wikipedia:Protection policy#Pending changes protection, the policy determining which pages can be given pending changes protection by administrators.
Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of reviewer or rollback. If you no longer want either of these user rights, contact me and I'll remove it, alternatively you can leave a request on the administrators' noticeboard. Happy editing! — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 22:38, 23 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Coffee:, sorry to interrupt if you're truly busy, but you haven't given my rights. I'm still autoconfirmed. If you could maybe check up on my user rights and change them. Thanks! :) –apap04¿ (talk) 23:40, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
- Self-trout I somehow completely got distracted with that tab still open, and never got back to it... My sincere apologies. I've applied the rights to your account now. — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 01:26, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks! :) apap04¿ (talk) 14:00, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
Why did you make this edit?
This is clearly changing well-known, sourced information. The song went to number on in the US. Why did you do this, especially with "Yikes" as the edit summary? It isn't a good look. It looks like the kind of thing a vandal does because they don't like whatever the article is about. Ss112 23:50, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
- @Ss112: Sorry, I thought it was supposed to be updated every time it changes. My bad. ;( –apap04 talk | contributions 00:09, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
- Chart sections are for peaks only, not for the current position. Ss112 00:10, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

According to the edit history of this page, the edit I reverted was part of an attack on the page previously; other members of the WP:FOOTY community are trying to get the message across that the table in which my edit was reverted is meant to show draw order rather than seeding order. During the draw in December, Uruguay was placed in A4 with Saudi Arabia at A2, as evidenced by the opening match on 14 June.
