Hey there! I just wanted to reach out as I noticed you've added a few maintenance templates to articles recently. Per MOS:ORDER, I wanted to point out that these generally should be placed above infoboxes. You're doing great work—simply some brief feedback for the future. Happy editing, and let me know if you have any questions! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 01:16, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
Drive-by tagging
editI can see you are a new editor, and your contribution seems to be drive-by tagging. Please take a moment to fix some of the problems you are identifying, rather than leaving them for other editors to fix. Thanks for your understanding. Magnolia677 (talk) 16:38, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
Not sure why Biden and the Academy Awards was deleted.
editBiden addressed the very serious issues from the documentary "The Hunting Ground" (2015), which discussed assault on college campuses. I don't understand why it was deleted. Starlighsky (talk) 03:15, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, but don't ask me! I only reverted your edit because you didn't follow the bold revert discuss rule on that article; I don't have any opinion on Joe Biden's contribution to that event. I have already sent a message to @Zaathras directing them to the talk page entry you made.

Orphaned non-free image File:Doors Roblox Gameplay 50.jpg
edit
Thanks for uploading File:Doors Roblox Gameplay 50.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:07, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
World's second largest democracy by population.
editHi. USA is the 3rd largest country by population. China is a not a democracy. India is a democracy and it even states on their Wikipedia article that they are the world's largest democracy by population. Now isn't it just a simple deduction that the USA would be the world's 2nd largest democracy by population since China is not one? Not really sure if I need a source for this. Alexysun (talk) 03:04, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- More Context: The only two countries with more population than the USA are India and China. Alexysun (talk) 03:05, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Alexysun Well, the verifiability policy states that material that is "likely to be challenged" should always be cited. Not every reader out there will know or care about the political status of China and India, nor even their population. Based on that, it should be cited.
- Also, Wikipedia is (ironically) not a reliable source because of its user-generated content. TheWikiToby (talk) 03:51, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- @TheWikiToby Okay, I'll find something. Alexysun (talk) 04:00, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
