Hello ZkanSll. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Abishe, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:   Introduction to Wikipedia   The five pillars of Wikipedia   Editing tutorial   How to edit a page   Simplified Manual of Style   The basics of Wikicode   How to develop an article   How to create an article   Help pages   What Wikipedia is not

Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:   Do be bold   Do assume good faith   Do be civil   Do keep cool!   Do maintain a neutral point of view   Don't spam   Don't infringe copyright   Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest   Don't commit vandalism   Don't get blocked

If you need further help, you can:   Ask a question

or you can:   Get help at the Teahouse

or even:   Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:   Fight vandalism   Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome   Help contribute to articles   Perform maintenance tasks

Become a member of a project that interests you   Help design new templates   Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

• Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
• Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
  

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Consensus

Wikipedia works by collaboration and consensus, not by each individual editor doing whatever he or she wants, and ignoring the opinion of other editors. As you know, a discussion about Checkmates in the opening produced solid consensus that the topic was not suitable for a Wikipedia article, and so it was deleted. Please respect that consensus, and don't try to unilaterally overturn it by re-creating the article. JBW (talk) 18:14, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Checkmates in the opening

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.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Checkmates in the opening requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Checkmates in the opening. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

MfD nomination of Draft:Checkmates in the opening

Draft:Checkmates in the opening, a page which you created or substantially contributed to, has been nominated for deletion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; you may participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Checkmates in the opening and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Draft:Checkmates in the opening during the discussion but should not remove the miscellany for deletion template from the top of the page; such a removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. CThomas³ (talk) 16:02, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

March 2020

Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages, as you did with Draft:Checkmates in the opening. Doing so won't stop the discussion from taking place. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the appropriate page. Do not remove the MFD tag, or the record of the decline of the draft.

Robert McClenon (talk) 20:06, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

Robert posted a rather tame version of this warning which was nice of him. Let me be more blunt: as JBW said earlier to you we operate on consensus. Resubmitting an article which was recently deleted is disruptive. Removing the deletion tags is disruptive. Repeatedly resubmitting a draft might be disruptive. It seems like you have plenty to offer in the area of chess. Find current articles to improve. That would be great. But further disruption will be met with a block.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Checkmates in the opening (March 9)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Sulfurboy was: This submission is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia.

March 2020

This is your only warning; if you remove or blank page contents or templates from Wikipedia again, as you did at Draft:Checkmates in the opening, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Do not remove MfD and AfC templates. This is the final warning. Sulfurboy (talk) 05:27, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
