Please do not add multiple links for the same wiki article as you have done, twice, at List of children of the Presidents of the United States. This is called WP:OVERLINKING and is unnecessary. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 03:19, 9 February 2018 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Octavia Taylor

Hello, AprilShowersBringMayFlowers,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Octavia Taylor should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Octavia Taylor .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
• Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! Shearonink (talk) 20:29, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

I appreciate your editing zeal but some of your recent edits to Wikipedia have removed or deleted reliable sources or have used sources that are unreliable (geni.com & findagrave) or do not always have sources. Please be careful about sources & referencing in your future editing. Thanks, Shearonink (talk) 20:31, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Robin Bush (daughter of George H. W. Bush)

Hello AprilShowersBringMayFlowers,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Robin Bush (daughter of George H. W. Bush) 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.

John Parke Custis

This edit to John Parke Custis ended up being kind of mangled. I went ahead and fixed it. Not sure why you added "citation needed" as the various diseases that could be "camp fever" are all referenced in various sources, so I added a ref & deleted "citation needed".

Speedy deletion nomination of Childbed (disambiguation)

Hello AprilShowersBringMayFlowers,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Childbed (disambiguation) for deletion. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an unnecessary disambiguation page.

If you feel that the page 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.

Mary Jackson (engineer)

Hi, I see you added a {{refimprove}} template to the article on Mary Jackson (engineer). Can you be more specific about what you feel is poorly sourced? GorillaWarfare (talk) 22:23, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Sarah Knox Taylor

Greetings. With this edit you asked for clarification on the statement about Sarah dying just three months after her marriage to Davis. What needs clarification here? Omnedon (talk) 17:05, 13 March 2018 (UTC)

March 2018

Hello. 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 Angela Lansbury 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:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision differences
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Edison (talk) 21:09, 13 March 2018 (UTC)

Hash vs hashtag

Hash and hashtag have different meanings and are not inter-changeable. The former is a punctuation mark and the latter is a metadata tag used on social media. Also, the number sign article is specifically about the punctuation mark. "Hashtag" and "Sharp (music)" use the same symbol but are not punctuation marks, that's why they have their own articles and should not be stated to be a name for the punctuation mark in the lead of the number sign article.

Random redirects

Hi,

Recently you have created several redirects in the ways not used, and even disapproved in wikipedia. PLease do not create redirects unless it is really necessary. Even better, do not create them until you become more familiar with wikipedia conventions and guidelines. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:10, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:The Prairie Thief book cover.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:The Prairie Thief book cover.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--AprilShowersBringMayFlowers (talk) 22:32, 15 April 2018 (UTC)) 17:31, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia:UNRELIABLESOURCE listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Wikipedia:UNRELIABLESOURCE. Since you had some involvement with the Wikipedia:UNRELIABLESOURCE redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so.

Ways to improve Fannie Jacobs

Hi, I'm Rosguill. AprilShowersBringMayFlowers, thanks for creating Fannie Jacobs!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Currently the article has a very long quote in the middle. Consider replacing the quote with a summary highlighting Jacobs's political positions as expressed in the quote.

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.
