Ways to improve Global storm activity of 1997 edit

Hi, I'm Garagepunk66. Palmount45, thanks for creating Global storm activity of 1997!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Needs sources. Needs to be developed and expanded.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Garagepunk66 (talk) 06:24, 5 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Proposed Deletion edit

Proposed deletion of Amy Walz edit

 

The article Amy Walz has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Clearly fails WP:GNG and WP:ENT -- role in A Beautiful Mind is listed as Blond in Bar in IMDB. No WP:RS establish notability.

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.

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to December 6, 1983, Selma, AL tornado, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say.

Speedy deletion nomination of Christmas 1982 tornado outbreak edit

Hello Palmount45,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Christmas 1982 tornado outbreak for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. Take a look at our suggestions for essential content in short articles to learn what should be included.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. NeedAGoodUsername (talk) 23:53, 19 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Removing pictures edit

Hi Palmount45. Why did you remove the pictures at pain in animals and Cruelty to animals? Note that Wikipedia is not censored, so the fact that images might be offensive to some is not in itself a reason to remove images. In fact, I would argue it's important to have some pictures; they add to the encyclopedic value of the article by illustrating examples of the subject. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 19:35, 24 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

January 2016 edit

  Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to Boot. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page to reach consensus rather than continuing to remove the disputed material. If the content in question involves images, you also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you.

February 2016 edit

  Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Istanbul Atatürk Airport does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! Jetstreamer Talk 23:01, 17 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your "minor" edits edit

Deleting long standing images from an article (without discussion) are not minor edits, particularly when the lead image is deleted. The images you replaced them with were decidedly not "better" images. If you think otherwise then you should explain your reasoning on the article talk page. --Epipelagic (talk) 20:44, 30 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

New England Patriots seasons edit

Why the change in the uniform picture? The picture you are adding contains an illegal uniform (the alternate uniform cannot be worn, as it has a white helmet), so it hasn't existed in years. Tarl N. (talk) 21:34, 22 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

June 2016 edit

  Hello, I'm HurricaneGonzalo! I'm not telling you to not make pages, but I really think you should take it one at a time on these articles: Tornadoes of 1961, Tornadoes of 1962, Tornadoes of 1963, Tornadoes of 1964, Tornadoes of 1965, Tornadoes of 1967, and Tornadoes of 1968. It takes forever to correct these edits you have made that are incorrect. However, I have changed them to the correct number from the source itself. This can cause you to get blocked from editing pages. Please use the correct number from the sources. HurricaneGonzalo | Talk | Contribs 18:09, 24 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Non-free image use edit

  Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. We always appreciate when users upload new images. However, it appears that one or more of the images you have recently uploaded or added to a page, specifically 2009 Chicago Bears season, may fail our non-free image policy. Most often, this involves editors uploading or using a copyrighted image of a living person. For other possible reasons, please read up on our Non-free image criteria. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:27, 26 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi Palmount45. I'm not sure if you're aware that there are basically two types of image files found on Wikipedia: freely licensed/public domain files and non-free files. Freely licensed and public domain files , such as ones found on Wikipedia Commons, only need to satisfy WP:IUP; non-free image files, however, need to satisfy WP:NFCC in addition to IUP. Since non-free image files are considered to be protected by copyright, their use on Wikipedia is strictly limited and each use must satisfy all 10 of the non-free content criteria listed at WP:NFCCP. Many of the uniform files you've been adding to NFL team season articles are non-free, which means that you need to justify their use in the article by providing a non-free use rationale which shows how all 10 non-free content criteria are met. So, please check the licensing of any image before adding it to an article. If the file is non-free, then please provide the appropriate justification for the way you want to use. If you're not sure how to verify a file's licensing or how to provide non-free justification, then feel free to ask for help at WP:MCQ. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:14, 26 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Unconstructive editing to veal edit

Please don't replace NPOV wording with biased emotional wording like "inhumane" to articles and mark it as minor like you did with veal. While I'm sure you have your own reasons for doing what you did or maybe you even thought this was a clarification, you must understand that Wikipedia is not a place for political propaganda, as your edits would be taken to be.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Big One (NASCAR), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Brandon Jones (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Numbers from Tornado outbreak of April 2–3, 1982 question edit

I came across the article randomly and thought to do some touching up, but noticed you included a number 77 that didn't seem to match the sources in the article. The only difference in the records I found was a potential 64th tornado listed in discrepancy between SPC and Storm Reports. I know it's been a while since you edited it, but any idea where you got the number 77? Thanks! JeopardyTempest (talk) 11:33, 30 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Edit from September 2016 edit

I know it's a while ago but only now there's editors including me noticing the year 1961 that you added to an image in this 2016 edit. SlightSmile 22:12, 7 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi Palmount45. Yes, adding "1961" to saddle shoe, as mentioned above, with no evidence that that is the right date, makes us unable to know why you made that edit. Please add a source or something in the edit summary next time. The thing is, if you just add that fact, we cannot tell if you are guessing, know but did not add the source, or are even vandalizing. We need to know it is not vandalism. Please add a source next time. Thank you very much. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 07:29, 10 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
