Disambiguation pages

Please note that disambiguation pages like Balian of Ibelin (disambiguation) are meant to help readers find a specific existing article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the Wikipedia:Disambiguation dos and don'ts you should:

• Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
• Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
• Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated
• Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
• Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
• Do not insert external links or references - Wikipedia is not a business directory

I have modified Balian of Ibelin (disambiguation) based on your edit, but using only one link and not piping Balian III d'Ibelin.

Thank you. Leschnei (talk) 22:22, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Essex House (publisher)

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 Essex House (publisher) 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 parisolympiapress.com/2015/10/26/books-for-trade-essex-house-north-hollywood-california-1968-1969-updated-post-oct-2015. 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 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.

Two unsolicited pieces of advice

1. Next time you accidentally create an article, you can actually just add {{db-author}} for a brief time.
2. You can use the article wizard and articles for creation until you get confidence in article writing.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from List of fictional countries into Draft:List of fictional places. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:24, 25 February 2023 (UTC)

For all item the source is explicitly given by the precise pointer of each item as

Casterly Rock

So I do not understand the criticism.

Agrabah

While I presume you removed the entry from List of fictional countries on the Earth because it is a duplicate, this should have been made clear in the edit-summary after you reverted User:Alex the weeb, or at least in a talk-page message to them. Now they are poised to re-revert since they will assume you removed the entry without a good reason! Vif12vf/Tiberius (talk) 01:57, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Concern regarding Draft:List of fictional places

Hello, LordFalk. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:List of fictional places, 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) 22:07, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

October 2024

Hi LordFalk! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at List of fictional countries set on Earth that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Thank you. TompaDompa (talk) 17:22, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Adapting orderings and/or correcting wrong issues is definitely not major.

That is the only thing I did. LordFalk (talk) 18:17, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

You added content. That does not fall under the heading of WP:Minor edit as understood on Wikipedia. TompaDompa (talk) 18:25, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

I did add no content; I correct the content introduced in

13:13, 27 October 2024 65.184.134.50

And now I correct your mistake and I will marc it as a minor edit LordFalk (talk) 04:09, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

The content had been removed between that edit and yours, so it indeed counts as you (re-)adding content. TompaDompa (talk) 12:24, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
