User talk:KevinNov3

Hello, KevinNov3, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Jojo Mojos, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained.

Hello KevinNov3,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Humphrey Funeral Home for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Hello, I'm IAmChaos. I noticed that you recently removed content from [[:N61 highway (Philippines)]] without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Happy Editing--IAmChaos 04:47, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to First Ladies and Gentlemen of the Philippines, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. —hueman1 (talk • contributions) 18:41, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You posted a deletion discussion tag at the top of Berber flag, but you didn't create the discussion that the tag claims is being held, so I've removed the tag. Largoplazo (talk) 11:46, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:IPadOS 15.2.png. 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) 17:26, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, KevinNov3,

I reverted your closure of this AFD. For some reason, you closed it as "Keep" even though not a single editor was asking for this article to be kept, there was only a nominator asking for it to be deleted. Please do not close any more deletion discussions until you have more experience as an editor and read Wikipedia:Non-admin closure which provides guidance deletion discussion closures by non-admins. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:11, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, KevinNov3,

You have only been editing for 2 months, you have no experience to be closing a complicated deletion discussion like this one. You have to remove all of the template transclusions of each template which you neglected to do.

And if you read the policy about non-admins closing deletion discussions (Wikipedia:Deletion process#Non-administrators closing discussions), you'd see that non-admins are only supposed to close deletion discussions that result in "Keep" decisions, not "Delete" decisions because you can not carry out the deletion yourself. I've reverted all of your template and template talk taggings. This is the second time you have taken on more responsibilities than you have experience for, without reading the appropriate policy guidelines beforehand. If this continues, you could lose your editing privileges so please stick with improving articles.

If you have questions about editing on Wikipedia or non-admin closures, please bring them to the Teahouse. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 03:23, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you close Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kirill Sinitsyn as Keep? It should have been closed as Delete as the Keep !votes were ridiculously weak and they were outnumbered by the well-reasoned Delete !voters. Iffy★Chat -- 10:18, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Just to let you know that I reverted your close of the aforementioned RfD since consensus is far from being reached and your close was completely unwarranted. I would also like to ask you to please refrain from closing any other discussions, on RfD or any other venue, at least until you've gained enough experience to do so (seeing how your close of the AfD mentioned above was also unnecessary and against WP:BADNAC). Thanks. CycloneYoris ^talk! 10:42, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I would appreciate better understanding your reasoning on closing the Patricia Harris Seeley AfD as keep. Thank you, Beccaynr (talk) 11:17, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please revert your close. A non-admin is only to close AfDs that are non-controversial. You have provided no reasoning for your close it can hardly be said the Keep has consensus. I have noted your recent spree of closing AfD and the reaction on your Talk page. I too would advise you to stop closing AfDs until you understand what you're doing, have more experience, provide reasoning and avoid controversial closes. HighKing⁺⁺ 17:49, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. HighKing⁺⁺ 18:02, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing certain namespaces (Wikipedia) for persistent poor AfD closes after a number of questions about these incorrect closes. You may still edit all Wikipedia articles and talk pages. There is a discussion about your editing at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#New(ish)_edit_non-admin_closing_AfDs_-_queries_being_ignored_on_Talk_page - however you will not be able to edit this because of your block, so you should make any comments here.

If you think there are other good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Black Kite (talk) 18:44, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I would like to continue to edit the Wikipedia namespace

Decline reason:

Please respond to the numerous concerns raised about your XfD closures on this talk page and at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#New(ish)_edit_non-admin_closing_AfDs_-_queries_being_ignored_on_Talk_page. Being accountable for your actions and participating in discussions is not an optional part of Wikipedia editing, especially if you want to get involved in behind-the-scenes work. – Joe (talk) 06:35, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

Hi Black Kite, I respectfully request my partial block removed and editing the Wikipedia namespace reinstated. I now understand what I was blocked for and I will not do it again

Decline reason:

It is not enough for you to tell us that you understand- many people say that they understand when they actually do not. You must demonstrate your understanding by specifically telling us what you did wrong and what edits you plan to make instead. I am declining your request; I will give you one last chance to make another request on this page, so make it count. 331dot (talk) 12:50, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WP:GAB explains how to craft an appropriate unblock request. Remember, you are trying to convince us you understand. Just saying you understand isn't enough and may cause your block to be extended. --Yamla (talk) 11:45, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kirill Sinitsyn as keep while it should have been closed as delete and edit articles instead 

Decline reason:

 Far from your multiple unblock requests showing that uou understand the reason for the block and will not do the same things again, they show unambiguously that you don't understand the reason. I suggest that you completely forget about deletion discussions and other related matters until you have far more experience of making plain and simple minor improvements to articles. I also advise you that if you make any more unblock requests similar to those you have already made, you are likely to be given a more comprehensive block, to prevent you from continuing to waste administrators' time reviewing requests which have no chance at all of success.

• Hi. I don't think you need to be unblocked to change your username. All you need to do is read Wikipedia:Changing username and then make your request at Special:GlobalRenameRequest. As for requesting unblock from the Wikipedia namespace, somebody with your beginner level of experience should not be doing any admin-style tasks at Wikipedia namespace pages at all. That is the problem you need to understand, not that you got a specific one wrong. So, I suggest you forget that for now and do some work on article content instead. And then, when you can demonstrate that you have some better experience here (say in 6 to 12 months time), an unblock request might be accepted. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 08:25, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not only experience with editing, but with the deletion process. Your first stab at it was a month ago, when you inexplicably placed an AFD tag on top of Berber flag, but didn't even create a discussion page. Then, four weeks later, you leaped right over ever having had any experience participating in deletion discussions to shutting them down, both files-for-discussion and articles-for-deletion. Finally, after having been asked on April 15 not to do this, on April 19 you went on a spree, doing the same thing, still having had no experiencing in participating in such discussions and without any indication that you understood them. Largoplazo (talk) 11:48, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you revert my edits to Gweedore with no explanation whatever. This is unacceptable, particularly in light of the warnings and advice you have been given (above) regarding your conduct on Wikipedia. 107.127.46.34 (talk) 13:59, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia. Please stop your disruptive editing or your block will become more wide. Star Mississippi 19:17, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I've undone your RM close at Talk:Funimation#Requested_move_7_January_2023. Several reasons spring to mind: 1) it was open just over half a day 2) your close in no way represents the discussion 3) there was only one comment in the discussion, 4) threads on the page, as well as the page history, indicate that it is clearly not uncontroversial, and would require explanation or elaboration. It's possibly the worst close I've ever seen. If this complaint has any relevance to the previous discussions I can see on this page, then you should probably think twice next time. Thanks. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 15:19, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Dear Black Kite, I acknowledge that my recent actions in closing Articles for Deletion (AfD) discussions were inappropriate as a non-administrator. I understand that non-admin closures in AfD discussions require fair experience, including previous participation in such discussions. I recognize the importance of adhering to Wikipedia's guidelines and have learned from this experience. I sincerely apologize for any disruption caused and assure you that I will not close AfD discussions without the necessary experience. If unblocked, I am committed to actively engaging in discussions, gaining more experience, and contributing positively to the Wikipedia community. Thank you for considering my unblock request. Sincerely, KevinNov3

Accept reason:

Per below. - UtherSRG (talk) 11:49, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

I noticed you'd "corrected" a number of redirect links by changing a link of the form [[A]] to one of the form [[B|A]]. For example, at "Edward VI", you changed [[Henry VIII of England]] to [[Henry VIII|Henry VIII of England]]. The previous version was actually correct.

Wikipedia prefers simple redirected links of the first type to unnecessarily "piped" links of the second type. Please read WP:NOPIPE, MOS:NOPIPE, and WP:NOTBROKEN for clarification. Here's a brief quotation from WP:NOPIPE:

N [[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart|Mozart]]

Y [[Mozart]]

Best wishes, Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 08:34, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Jean-de-Neville excuse me Why are redirect links needed even though It links to the incorrect article title

KevinNov3 (talk) 12:45, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A redirect isn't a link to an incorrect title: it's one way of displaying a particular text while linking to the correct article that happens to have a different title. The article at WP:PIPE explains the difference between a piped link (like [[Henry VIII|Henry VIII of England]]) and a redirect (like [[Henry VIII of England]]). Both links display the same text ("Henry VIII of England") and both arrive at the same target page.

In the case of "Henry VIII", there are currently 44 redirects to the page of that name. If the page were to be moved to a different location, it would be a simple matter to update those 44 links to point to the new target. It would be a much bigger job to track down and "correct" all the links (currently 10,071) to "Henry VIII" to make them point to the new target page.

Piped links also tend to produce clumsy, unreadable wikitext - things like "British [[Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs|Foreign Secretary]], [[E. F. L. Wood, 1st Earl of Halifax|Lord Halifax]]" instead of "British [[Foreign Secretary]], [[Lord Halifax]]", both of which display the same text ("British Foreign Secretary, Lord Halifax") and link to the same two target pages. Redirects produce clear, simple, low-maintenance wikitext. Piped links have their place, but in general it's not recommended to replace redirects with pipes without good reason, as explained at "WP:NOTBROKEN".

It's actually quite a common misconception that "piped" links are somehow more "correct". They're not, and it's something I have a bee in my bonnet about. Because I spend a lot of time cleaning up links, it bothers me a little to think that people are undoing my work in the name of correctness.

Best wishes, Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 13:51, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also on the Princess Charlotte of Wales (1796-1817) article on the father section on the info box there is a piped link instead of a redirect link George, Prince of Wales (later George IV) so please change it to George, Prince of Wales (later George IV).
