Hello! Boar69, you are invited to the Teahouse, a forum on Wikipedia for new editors to ask questions about editing Wikipedia, and get support from peers and experienced editors. Please join us! Liz Read! Talk! 06:54, 2 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved 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. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 08:00, 2 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Thanks for your contributions to Tom Laporte. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and it is promotional and reads like an advertisement. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. CurryTime7-24 ( talk) 23:57, 5 March 2024 (UTC) reply

thanks. i misunderstood how drafts work in the naming. I thought drafts were to be under your userID. Boar69 ( talk) 02:05, 11 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow, or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus. This includes making page moves while a discussion remains underway. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you. Liz ^{Read!

Hello, Boar69,

You seem to have gone overboard moving pages around. This is typically the sign of a brand new editor who doesn't know what they are doing. You shouldn't have to move a page more than once. So, think things through and consider a) does this page really need to be moved, b) if so, what is the correct new page title and is it spelled correctly and c) are you sure which namespace the page should be moved to. Just so you know, Wikipedia maintains logs for page deletions and page moves so all of your actions are recorded outside of your Contributions page which is where I came to see all of your page moves.

If you have questions about when it is appropriate to move an article or page, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 19:37, 9 March 2024 (UTC) reply

I've moved all the above pages to remove your user name. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 12:58, 10 March 2024 (UTC) reply

thanks, i thought it was standard to keep a draft somehow under your username Boar69 ( talk) 14:12, 11 March 2024 (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 SafariScribe were:

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.

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.

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 after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Tom Laporte and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
