Welcome!

Hello, Harvey Milligan, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like Captain Paul Quine, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

Proposed deletion of Captain Paul Quine edit

 

The article Captain Paul Quine has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

non-notable

While all 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 {{dated prod}} 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 {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Ridernyc (talk) 14:38, 8 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Paul Quine edit

 

A tag has been placed on Paul Quine 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

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.

March 2010 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. A page you recently created, Paul Quine, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests, and consider using the Article Wizard. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article. You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. CobaltBlueTony™ talk 21:08, 5 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Your contributed article, TSS Manx Maid edit

 

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.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, TSS Manx Maid. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Manx Maid. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Manx Maid - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Brad (talk) 04:03, 15 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi edit

I see you are having a few problems with editing Wikipedia judging by the feedback you are getting here. Possibly this is because you are trying to do too much too soon. Wikipedia takes a long time to learn all the ins and outs of, and all the various guidelines, policies etc. I would recommend that you read the pages linked in the welcome notice at the top of the page if you have not done so already, as they explain a lot of what Wikipedia is and isn't.

Re the MV Peveril (1963) article, you have given some sources, but these need to be used as inline citations - for an example of this, see SS Empire Energy, which I created today. WP:CITE explains about citing sources. If you are interested in ships, WP:SHIPS is the relevant WikiProject. Just add your name to the membership list and you're in! You can always ask for assistance at WT:SHIPS. My talk page is also available if you wish to ask me anything. Mjroots (talk) 09:26, 30 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Citing References edit

Hello, Harvey Milligan. My name is Mike, and I have noticed all your recent contributions to Wikipedia, and I appreciate them. With that being said, I noticed that in August, User:Mjroots sent you a greeting on this page, and offered to help you in regards to citing sources for the articles you are creating. WP:REFB is a good starting point to learn how this is done. Tyke (elephant) is an article I created some time ago. I encourage you to visit the articles page, and note the reference included within the article. You'll also notice, there is a section at the bottom of the page entitle References. In that section, you can click on the links provided that will show you where the information within the article comes from.

Please do not continue to post unsorced material to Wikipedia. If you have questions, don't be afraid to ask me or others who have attempted to reach out to you for help. Thanks. Stubbleboy 19:06, 17 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Morning edit

Good Morning Harvey Milligan

I have spent time correcting the references on the RAF Jurby article but there is parts i could not "fix" due to fact that on citations No.4, No.6 and No.7 you have not placed the page number(s). Please add these A.S.A.P.

Also i have placed the book about "Manx Festival of Aviation: Festival programme 2006" within the bibliography (where it should of been the whole time) however you have not entered the authors name. When you correct it all you need to do is to replace the words "Unknown author" with the author's name everywhere it is in the article and the bibliography.

Thank you

Instead using "<r ef>Gordon Kniveton: Manx Aviation in War and Peace (1985) p51</r ef>" please use the following "<r ef name="Kniveton1985p51">Kniveton 1985, p. 51.</r ef>" (without the spaces and quotation marks of course) all you need to is to change the page numbers.

Please do not use Wikipedia articles as a reference, if the reference is from the article, just go into the edit mode on the article and copy the reference across also i need the page number for "Poole, S. Rough Landing or Fatal Flight. Amulree Publications, 2006.ISBN 978-1901508031" the citation is there but the page number is not on the RAF Jurby article.

Thank you

P.s I love the replies i'm getting on your talk page, it does not take long to type yes, no or ok followed by your signature.

P.P.s Please reference your runway lengths as i have just measured 11/29 runway and found it to be around 1,200m not the 1,000m you have changed it to.

Hi. When you recently edited RAF Jurby, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Squadron, Dispersal and Newcastle (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Ship Articles edit

Hello Harvey

On reading some of your extensive IOMSP articles, I noticed a couple of small things where you may have misunderstood the terms. Firstly, gross register tonnage has nothing at all to do with displacement. Secondly, I do not understand why you are entering each ship's Official Number in the infobox field for "Way number". The latter is the identifier for the particular slipway used by the shipbuilder - see here.

I changed these in SS Ben-my-Chree (1908), but you will hopefully revisit your other articles. Davidships (talk) 00:52, 17 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hall Caine Airport edit

You're doing good work with the expansion. Do you have access to The Times online archive. There may be some material there which can be used (I've not looked yet). I don't want to edit conflict with you while you're working on the article, but I have access if you don't. Mjroots (talk) 09:45, 31 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thanks for your input into Hall Caine Airport. I do not have access to The Times online archive, but I do have access to the local (Isle of Man) newspaper archive. Over the next few weeks (as time permits) I intend to make further contributions to the article in order that it can be as comprehensive as possible. There are certain paragraphs which need a slight re-arrangement and I have also got source from the MER archive part of which is an article in which concerns Hall Caine Airport and was written in 1984. I can post on this when I've exhausted all my sources and you could then perhaps add anything to which you have access. Harvey Milligan (talk) 13:36, 02 August 2015. (UTC)
You've been doing good work. I've assessed the article at B class, but it's not that far off GA. There's a few unreferenced paragraphs (maybe ref in following para covers the info, but it really needs a ref for every para) and also quite a few instances of a space being needed after a ref and before the next sentence. You should think about putting this forward for GA once these have been addressed. Mjroots (talk) 19:12, 14 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the feedback - always appreciated. Not sure what is meant by 'B' class or 'GA'. The paragraphs, as you thought, are referenced but like you point out are not properly indicated. The references I use do tend to cover the entire paragraph as opposed to the specific sentence. I have some further research to do in order to complete the article, however I'm quite pleased with the depth of it as of now. I will be using the local newspapers as the primary source of information (as you can see the majority of information has come from them) and will endevour to be more structured with references. Cheers. Harvey Milligan (talk) 13:16, 16 February 2018. (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Please do not put spoilers into edit summaries, as you did with Ian Hutchinson at 12.25 on the 6 June soon after the race "Number of TT wins altered to 12 and podiums 20 following victory in the 2016 Supersport TT"

It spoils the TV coverage for those not wanting to know in real time. Wikipedia is not a news source, neither is it a competition to see who 'can get it on to Wikipedia first'. A simple edit summary such as 'updated TT result' would be sufficient, and warn-off those not wanting to know.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 22:29, 7 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

November 2016 edit

  Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to David Kewley. I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

|image=SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!

3RR edit

You have now violated WP:3RR. Agricolae (talk) 15:22, 24 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

 

Your recent editing history at Francis Pigott Stainsby Conant shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.Agricolae (talk) 15:32, 24 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Edit warring at Francis Pigott Stainsby Conant edit

Hello Harvey Milligan. See my comment at the edit warring noticeboard. In my opinion, you should be blocked for 3RR violation if you won't back away from this dispute. Your best option is to undo your last change, and agree to wait for consensus before restoring it again. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 18:46, 24 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your message, it is much appreciated. I have to say however, that the proposer appears to be indulging in a form of intimidation - and looking at his talk page it would appear this is the rule as opposed to the exception.
I have written almost 200 articles for Wikipedia, and I find the suggestion leveled by the proposer to be nothing short of insulting.
Regards, Harvey Milligan (talk) 23:17, 24 July 2017. (UTC)
 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

The full report is at the edit warring noticeboard. Even good contributors sometimes fall into disputes, and this happens all parties are expected to follow the steps of WP:Dispute resolution. Someone like yourself who often adds content would be expected to know about policies like WP:NOTGENEALOGY, or at least try to understand them when they are pointed out.

Fiona Curzon moved to draftspace edit

An article you recently created, Fiona Curzon, 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.

William Cain edit

Would you like to explain exactly what you think you're doing here? You have surely been here long enough to know that's not how we do things on Wikipedia. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:52, 1 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

There is more than one William Cain listed on Wikipedia. Therefore it would appear to be sensible that should the name be inserted into the search bar, then it should link to the William Cain disambiguation page. This would enable the researcher to locate the specific person to which they intend to read about, and not just relate to "William Cain." By creating the page "William Cain (brewer & philanthropist)" it allows it to be differentiated from other people of the same name. Harvey Milligan (talk) 16:10, 1 November 2018. (UTC)

With all due respect, after eight years editing Wikipedia how can you possibly not know that the way to go about this is to move the page in question (thereby preserving the edit history) and not cut and paste into a new article? In any case, the correct disambiguated title would be Sir William Cain, 1st Baronet. We do not use double disambiguators like William Cain (brewer & philanthropist). -- Necrothesp (talk) 17:31, 1 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
However, I agree with you that he is probably not the primary topic. I have made the appropriate changes. -- Necrothesp (talk) 17:45, 1 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Harvey Milligan. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Fiona Curzon".

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.

historic Isle of Man churches edit

Thank you for contributing articles on historic churches in the Isle of Man. I have been checking Category:Churches in the Isle of Man, towards making more links from Registered Buildings of the Isle of Man to existing articles. I noticed a couple of yours, including St Trinian's Church and St George's Church, Isle of Man. These two, though great contributions, appear to me not to belong in Category:Registered Buildings of the Isle of Man, because they're not in the list-article (so I removed the category). Or am I missing something? The list-article was built to be comprehensive, but I know it does covers just explicitly listed/numbered buildings and does not include IOM's equivalent to "historic districts" elsewhere. If you have other info, please let me know!

Anyhow, keep up your good work! And I would be glad of help to build out the list-article, too. :) --Doncram (talk) 19:19, 4 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Donny Robinson DAB page edit

Hey! I think this is a pretty clear case of an unnecessary DAB page due to there being a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of Donny Robinson (BMX racer), especially considering the second person on the DAB page doesn't even have an article and only has a section in a separate person's article. A hatnote would work fine here. There was a recent discussion at Talk:Christian Braun#Requested move 13 June 2023 along these lines, resulting in the person with the article being moved to the undisambiguated title.

Do you have any further reasoning for why these articles should be disambiguated instead of using a hatnote, and/or would you object to a reversion of the move (of course with a hatnote being added)? Skarmory (talk • contribs) 05:38, 21 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
