Hello, I'm Jonas kam. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Men's European Volleyball Championship, 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. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Jonas kam (talk) 23:09, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
- I have a reliable source. The CEV gave Romania hosting rights in November 2022 and the FIVB change continental championships to even numbered years. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 23:14, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did at Men's European Volleyball Championship, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Jonas kam (talk) 01:11, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Draft:2023–24 EHF European League a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into 2023–24 EHF European League. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. ❯❯❯ Raydann(Talk) 21:56, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of 2023–24 LEN Champions League
editIf 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 2023–24 LEN Champions League, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do.
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.

editHello, I'm Hey man im josh. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Please stop removing appropriate tags from articles, such as as the Template:One source tag that you've removed from several articles that it's been appropriately placed on. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:21, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at 2023–24 LEN Euro Cup. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. I believe this is the fourth time now that I've asked you NOT to remove relevant tags from articles, as you did here. The only sources on the article from the organization itself, making it a primary source. The one source tag is appropriate because the website for the organization is the only source used.

The article ICC T20 Champions Cup has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Unverifiable, there are some old sources all giving different years, but nothing definitive or confirmed
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. Fram (talk) 16:42, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Better source request for File:EHF European League 2023.png
editThanks for your upload to Wikipedia:
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete or generic. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact source (such as the web page, or printed document) where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain, search engine, pinboard, aggregator, or the direct/bare URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. — Ирука13 06:29, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:LEN Women's Euro Cup logo2.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:LEN Women's Euro Cup logo2.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) 02:19, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
Duplicate parameters
editOn September 21 you made multiple additions of the parameters OTwin_AAA and OTloss_AAA to the 2023–24 LEN Challenger Cup, 2023–24 LEN Women's Challenger Cup, and 2023–24 LEN Women's Euro Cup articles, and other duplicate parameters to 2023–24 LEN Women's Champions League article. These duplicate parameters cause these articles to be listed at "Category:Articles using duplicate arguments in template calls". None of us editors who patrol this page periodically are sure how to correctly fix these duplicates. They've been there for 10 days, and it appears that the tournaments are ongoing for several months. Would you mind fixing them so they are no longer duplicated, but also making sure that they're correct? Thanks. Ira Leviton (talk) 14:47, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
Austria qualifying for 2024 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup
editHow can you be so certain that Austria qualified for 2024 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup ? Do you have a source ? UEFA has not sent any communication, how can you be so certain of that without any references and sources ? Pindrice (talk) 18:17, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- Who else are they going to give it to? I understand your point but it seems pretty obvious to me. For now, If you want to hide it before it's officially announced, that makes sense, but I don't think erasing it would make sense. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 18:21, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- I don't mean what I said to sound arrogant. It's just, who else are UEFA going to give the spot too? ILoveSport2006 (talk) 18:28, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- "It seems pretty obvious to me" -> That is not an acceptable argument here on Wikipedia, we use valuable sources and references and certainly not a personal thought. What if UEFA decides to organize a play-off between Austria and Iceland (the other 3rd place) ? What if UEFA decides to use another way to choose the fifth team. You write prose like it is 100% sure but in fact you have absolutely no idea of what they are gonna to do. Maybe indeed Austria will be chosen, maybe not. Pindrice (talk) 18:28, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- And even for the other confederation, you write prose like it is 100% sure (Costa Rica and Fiji), do CONCACAF and OFC have confirmed your thoughts ? 100% sure ? You should add something like "We wait the official announcements from the different confederations" Pindrice (talk) 18:31, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- Ok, in regards to Austria, Their spot could be given to someone else. Even though you said a lot of what ifs that won't happen. But in regards to Costa Rica and Fiji, there are no scheduled U-20 women's competitions in their respective regions. So both of them will certainly qualify. No region is going to organise any impromptu play off for a U20 Women World Cup spot. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 18:37, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- "Even though you said a lot of what ifs that won't happen." -> WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT IT ???
- I noticed that you are a very bad editor and again you give me the proof once again ! Cleaning all your mess on water-polo and basket pages ! You are one really a bad editor, please do other things that editting because you're very bad at it ! Pindrice (talk) 18:44, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- Woah, you don't have to get personal. I am happy you help me with the articles. All I'm saying is anyone can make a what if suggestion. But for someone that's really sensitive and autistic, it's hurts you saying that I'm terrible this, terrible that etc. We weren't even having an argument. I had an opinion, you had an opinion. What are you trying to accomplish by saying all this rude stuff? Are you trying to make me feel small? Are you trying to hurt me? I have done so many articles since I started editing. I like editing.

- Ok, I will make my feelings clear. Your verbally abusive message was disgustingly hurtful and vile. How dare you go on my talk page just to say how I should stop editing. I have made so many articles about competitions that should've already had a page. I have worked on my articles for hours day and night ever since I started editing. If I'm so bad at editing, then why did no one edit the U20 Women World Cup after 2 hours of the expansion announcement, before I got grubby little hands on the keyboard to badly edit. I couldn't edit in that time because I was playing Volleyball. But when I find out about the news, I immediately started editing the page.
- Unless you say sorry and understand that your reply was unacceptable, I don't want you to reply or go on my talk page ever again. No exaggeration, your reply was the worst thing that has been said to me in my life. How dare you! ILoveSport2006 (talk) 20:50, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
- @Pindrice please be mindful of the civility policy:
Editors should always treat each other with consideration and respect. They should focus on improving the encyclopedia while maintaining a pleasant editing environment by behaving politely, calmly and reasonably, even during heated debates.

Non-free logos
editHi,
I see you've had some challenges with using non-free logos on various articles. Wikipedia is a freely licensed encyclopedia, and tries to minimize the amount of non-free content used. To use non-free content such as copyrighted logos, the usage must meet all of the non-free content criteria. I know this can be a bit confusing. The guidelines for non-free content include examples of uses that are acceptable, and examples of uses that are unacceptable. I can see your interest is in sports and their associated teams, leagues, and competitions. With such an interest, you should look at the examples of unacceptable image use. In particular, point 14, and point 17 are examples of unacceptable use that you must be aware of. A good example for point 14 is LEN Women's Euro Cup. The logo used there is for the competition in general, and the usage is okay. But that same logo cannot be used in 2023–24 LEN Women's Euro Cup because it is a specific instance of the event. I hope that helps clarify things for you. If you have questions about images related to copyright, or non-free usage, you can ask questions at Media Copyright Questions, and for more general editing help, you can post at the Teahouse. Regards. -- Whpq (talk) 18:06, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

The file File:Russia bid picture 2026 EHF Women's Euro.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
This is not crucial enough to the article to qualify as a valid non-free image.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 02:43, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

editHello, I'm Arcendeight. I noticed that you recently removed content from 2022 FIBA 3x3 AmeriCup without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

- Hi @ILoveSport2006, thats great! Thank you for doing so! I would encourage you not to blank the article you are replacing until you have drafts that are ready for publication. I see those articles are still in draftspace, so removing the original article removes that content from public view. Please feel free to turn the primary article into a redirect once your drafts are ready. All the best, Arcendeight (talk) 11:46, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

Page moves
editHello, ILoveSport2006,
I review the Move log and am getting absolutely dizzy from your constant article page moves. Why are you creating articles in main space and then moving them to Draft space? Please just start in Draft space and work on them so they won't need to be moved back and forth between namespaces. And please do not do page moves trivially just because you would prefer a slightly different page title. Moving pages multiple times is disruptive editing so try to consider where an article should go and do just one page move. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 05:40, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

Replaceable non-free use File:Mladost pool.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Mladost pool.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 17:48, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter
editThe first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.
The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:
- Generalissima (submissions), who has 916 points mostly from one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher), 15 GAs, and 16 DYKs on a variety of topics including New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures, in addition to seven reviews
- Vami_IV (submissions), who has 790 points from two FAs on Felix M. Warburg House and Doom (2016 video game), two GAs, one DYK, and 11 reviews
- AirshipJungleman29 (submissions), who has 580 points from one FA on Hö'elün, two GAs on Mongolia-related articles, two DYKs, and five reviews
- Sammi Brie (submissions), who has 420 points mostly from nine GAs and seven DYKs on television and radio stations
- MaranoFan (submissions), who has 351 points from one FA on Holidays (Meghan Trainor song), a nine-article FT on 30 (album), and three DYKs
- Skyshifter (submissions), who has 345 points from one FA on OneShot, one DYK and two reviews
In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to Vami_IV (submissions), who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.
Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

Speedy deletion nomination of 2031 FIBA Basketball World Cup
editIf 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 2031 FIBA Basketball World Cup requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.eurobasket.com/World-Cup/news/806904/2023-World-Cup-Draw-held-in-Manila and https://www.sportskeeda.com/basketball/news-examining-2023-fiba-world-cup-draw. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
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.

editWelcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in 2024 Women's European Volleyball League, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. 98𝚃𝙸𝙶𝙴𝚁𝙸𝚄𝚂 • [𝚃𝙰𝙻𝙺] 13:47, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- Can you clarify? Because when you added the logo, which I was very thankful for, I had to adapt that area to accommodate the logo because at the time, due to the logo, the tournament list/schedule section was a bit squashed and I wanted space between the logo and the tournament list/schedule section. That's why, so I undid your edit because it looked all squeezed in again. If there's a better way to give space between both things, please tell me. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 14:15, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at 2024 FIVB Volleyball Women's Nations League shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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; read about 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 you 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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. 98𝚃𝙸𝙶𝙴𝚁𝙸𝚄𝚂 • [𝚃𝙰𝙻𝙺] 22:57, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

AFC Women's Champions League
editSorry if the edit summary may lack tact for the reversion. But to elaborate on my reasoning, we cannot include information about the associations that submitted entries for the 2024–25 AFC Women's Champions League that comes from a dubious source. Who knows where the "Asian Games" Twitter account which seems to have no links to the Olympic Council of Asia or the Asian Football Confederation got their information? So it's just prudent to omit the whole unverifiable thing at all instead of adding it since "that's the better indication we have at the moment".Hariboneagle927 (talk)` Hariboneagle927 (talk) 07:19, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- I understand your point. However, these reports from Twitter have been true in the past. Specifically when the slot allocation for the Asian Club Competition revamp was reported on Twitter by these accounts, it was all 100% true. So these account/s have released true info in the past.

Links to other language articles
editAre you sure it's an acceptable practice to link to articles in other language wikipedias texts of English wikipedia articles? I've never seen it before. For example the link to fi:Naisten F-liigan kausi 2023–2024 from 2024–25 Women's Floorball Champions Cup. And many others. Prikryl (talk) 04:48, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- I understand your point, but I think it is unlikely that domestic floorball league pages will be made on the English wiki. So I think this is the best option as of now because the links add a bit more context and information. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:44, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for your answer. Though, I do not think you have answered my question (if this is an acceptable practice). I understand why you are doing it. But I also see how confusing it can be. I've never seen it in any other article. Afaik, the acceptable linking to other language wikis is via Template:Interlanguage link. For an example of its use, see Superliga florbalu#Teams. Prikryl (talk) 04:51, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- Personally, I think due to the fact that the links increase the context and information in the article, it is an acceptable practice. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:42, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, but I wasn't asking what you "personally think". I'm asking if you have any example of such use of links or any reference supporting such use. Prikryl (talk) 06:05, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- I have used this type of linking for leagues in the recent season of the European Water polo, Handball, Volleyball, Basketball. While researching Handball, this article, SPAR Premium League, also has links that I do for some clubs. There are definitely some other articles that use this type of link too, but I forgot which ones they were. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:38, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- The consensus is not to use not-marked links to other language wikis:

Making subpages and their main page deliberately into a disam page
editCan you explain here please. Pelmeen10 (talk) 01:23, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
- Both genders deserve a their own article rather than being squashed together into one like they used to be. I didn't make the disam page originally, someone did it for me and personally, I think it works really well. It looks similar now but once the tournament starts and groups are added etc, both articles will look different. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:41, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

- He deserved it and I have no regrets. While I have loved our conversation, I have to confess you aren't a nice person from the messages and you have a rude elitist behaviour. Hope I never see you again. Byeeeee :| ILoveSport2006 (talk) 19:24, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

- I am very nice to people on Wikipedia, but people don't listen to me. I have done numerous articles on Water polo, Sitting Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Volleyball, Floorball and Korfball so saying "he doesn't immediately seem to be developing into a net positive" I deem a personal attack. I didn't like the fact that, from my perspective, Explicit didn't care about originally responding me on this talk page and then thobbed me off with a "they are the same" when if you looked harder, they weren't.
- I also felt his attitude was bad too, essentially punishing me for what I said. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 11:44, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- When I am nice, I don't really think people listen to me. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 11:49, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- The "He deserved it and I have no regrets" message is because when I originally asked for help on the matter. No one did and Pigsonthewing treated me like dirt and didn't help at all, so I was annoyed with him. Again, if people helped me properly then this all would've been avoided. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 11:53, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- What doesn't help is that Explicit never edits the pages in question, but deletes them. That's not right. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 11:58, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- You're going to have to stop using personal attacks as a way of getting people's attention. And you're going to have to stop thinking people are required to give you whatever help you think you need. In addition to the personal attacks, your behavior at Pigsonthewing's talk was out of bounds. And frankly your assertion that if someone isn't editing a page, they can't respond to a deletion request for that page shows a complete misunderstanding of how Wikipedia works. Valereee (talk) 11:59, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Why did you make a comment that I deem a personal attack. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:00, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Your talk page shows a lack of learning and many concerns not responded to, which after 10K edits should not be the case, which makes me think you are not developing into a productive editor. That is a description of your behavior, not a personal attack. Valereee (talk) 12:02, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Why is Explicit's attitude validated and your comment's is deemed okay. That's not right. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:05, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- I am not fully in the wrong. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:05, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- What about this comment "Explicit didn't care about originally responding me on this talk page and then thobbed me off with a "they are the same" when if you looked harder, they weren't." ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:06, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- It doesn't matter whether Explicit was correct or incorrect. This is not about whether you were correct. This is about making personal attacks. You may not say to them, "You are a lying petty person who knows NOTHING about these Handball articles. You have a bit of power and you are using it. You must a sad life." You also may not restore demands for answers that someone has deleted from their own user talk. Valereee (talk) 12:12, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- This comment from Explicit is the reason I made the comment "But since I can't have an opinion, I guess I can't restore the article. Oh well". If he didn't make that comment, I would not have made mine. So where's his telling off? ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:16, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Tell him off for what? You'd literally just told him he wasn't allowed to have an opinion. Which by the way is another thing you shouldn't be telling people here. Valereee (talk) 12:20, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Can I have an answer to this point I made: I didn't like the fact that, from my perspective, Explicit didn't care about originally responding me on this talk page and then thobbed me off with a "they are the same" when if you looked harder, they weren't. ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:24, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, but no, I'm not getting into the argument of whether an article for a 2032 sporting event needs to be created now or not. I don't have any interest in sports, and again, crucial to your understanding of this entire issue, no one owes you the help you want. Losing your temper over that is not productive. Valereee (talk) 12:31, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Can I have an apology for your comment that I deem a personal attack? ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:33, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- As I explained above, it wasn't a personal attack, but I'm sorry it felt that way to you. Another thing you're going to need to learn is what is and isn't a personal attack. Information at WP:NPA#WHATIS. Valereee (talk) 12:36, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- I appreciate that and I think that's a good way to end the conversation. This wouldn't have happened if people just showed me a bit more respect because normally, I am very respectful. Explicit was rude and Pigsonthewing treated me like dirt so I had a bit of fun with it. From now on, I will be looking at the responses ILoveSport2006 (talk) 12:42, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
