Regardless of whether or not you think citations are necessary, they are required for contested material. You should also check up on WP:CIVIL. Onel5969 (talk) 19:12, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I responded to you over on my talk page; since you are new you may not know how to check your watchlist. So go to my page for further discussion.--Jorm (talk) 20:05, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I know you really feel strongly about your edit, but please don't edit war to force your preferred version. You have already made three reverts. Continuing to revert will probably get you blocked. You should use the talk page to build consensus for your edit.- MrX 12:52, 22 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Idoghor Melody were:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

You're right, thanks for pointing this out. Joeparsec (talk) 09:24, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Joeparsec. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Dave Smith, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 06:02, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Joeparsec. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Dave Smith".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 05:47, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
