Hi, the recent edit you made to Cold Turkey has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing.

Cut and paste move

Hello, Mdumas43073. It appears that you copied and pasted John Earl Madden to John Madden (American football). Please do not move articles by copying and pasting them because it splits the article's history, which is needed for attribution and is helpful in many other ways. If there is an article that you cannot move yourself using the move link at the top of the page, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves. Also, if there are any other articles that you copied and pasted, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you, Zzyzx11 (Talk) 04:13, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Up on the House Top

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Up on the House Top, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Up On the House Top. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 20:02, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

I have fixed your copy-n-paste move of Up on the House Top. I can see above that you have previously been told about using the move button instead of copy-n-pasting articles. Please do this correctly in the future. If you need help, see WP:MOVE or feel free to ask me or any other editor. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks. -- JLaTondre 22:21, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Redirect of 1973 MLB season

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on 1973 MLB season, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because 1973 MLB season is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting 1973 MLB season, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click here CSDWarnBot (talk) 19:30, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Please do not create malicious redirects, as you did with Great Wall of China. They are disruptive and are considered vandalism, and have been reverted. Users who continue to create such redirects may be blocked. Doug Weller (talk) 19:11, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Multiple wiki-links

The Wikipedia Manual of Style states that wikilinks should only be used in the first instance of the linked article in an article. Therefore, the Eastern Time Zone and TV network articles that are linked to in the NFL playoffs articles should not be re-linked for every single game. Thank you.

Speedy deletion of Mark Champion

A tag has been placed on Mark Champion requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Mdumas43073! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 139 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. Jay Randolph - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
2. Frank Herzog - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Once Upon a Classic

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Once Upon a Classic, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Once Upon A Classic. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 19:13, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of List of NFC Divisional Playoff Game broadcasters, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.enotes.com/topic/List_of_NFC_Championship_Game_broadcasters.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

Proposed deletion of List of AFC Wild Card Playoff Game broadcasters

Not really clear why this is supposed to be notable. For the Super Bowl and the like, yes, but this is taking things too far. It's not as if their is e.g. widespread speculation about who will be commenting this year (like for e.g. the Academy Awards) or otherwise exceptional attention for this subject.

An article you recently created, Mel Tormé at the Crescendo (1955 album), 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 click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Sources needed for Days of the Year pages

You're probably not aware of this change, but Days of the Year pages now require direct sources for additions. For details see the content guideline, the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide or the edit notice on any DOY page. Almost all new additions without references are now being reverted on-sight.

Please do not add new additions to these pages without direct sources as the burden to provide them is on the editor who adds or restores material to these pages.

Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 14:13, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Film scores by Nathan Scott

A tag has been placed on Category:Film scores by Nathan Scott 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.

Your draft article, Draft:Mel Tormé at the Crescendo (1955 album)

Hello, Mdumas43073. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Mel Tormé at the Crescendo".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! UnitedStatesian (talk) 18:46, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

Edit summaries, please

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. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. Thanks! Eric ^talk 02:28, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Editing logged out

Hello, Mdumas43073

As it happens, right after you created a category today, Category:Films scored by John Leipold, IP editor 2601:40C:8380:1720:958D:9A2F:3DDA:F90 added dozens of pages to this category. This is quite a coincidence. Since you have a registered account, please log in to do all of your editing. Editing logged out can be viewed as sockpuppetry or trying to edit deceptively. It also reveals information about you like your physical location. There is no reason why you couldn't have made these edits with your registered account so please do this in the future. Thank you.
