Information icon Hello, I'm 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Richey Edwards, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 15:30, 2 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Steve Cooke (Quizmaster) edit

Hi JayeSmith2022. I see you're new to Wikipedia, and I hope you enjoy your time here. (Some of us stay around for ages and get a real kick out of improving content!). It looks like you might be having a problem creating a new article on Steve Cooke (Quizmaster). Could I suggest you try editing this in your Sandbox first? - just look for the link at the top of the page. When you've got things looking right, you can then cut and paste it into Wikipedia's 'mainspace' without the risk of some editor coming along and deleting hallf-done work. Or you could try the Articles for Creation tool, which lets you get things right before you submit it for consideration. It's so easy to fall foul of editing rules (especially of living people) - see WP:BLP. Hope this helps. (Oh - just seen your latest version, and it looks like your coming along. Sorry if this sounds patronising - just trying to help out. Regards Nick Moyes (talk) 15:37, 2 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Steve Cooke (Quizmaster) edit

 

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 Steve Cooke (Quizmaster) 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 http://www.derbyshiretimes.co.uk/news/hit-tv-quiz-eggheads-poaches-bolsover-s-steve-cooke-1-8161769. 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 removed 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. 2601:188:1:AEA0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 15:41, 2 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Your recent editing history at Richey Edwards shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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. See BRD for 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:51, 2 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistently making disruptive edits. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Widr (talk) 15:55, 2 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
