Firstly it is a basic principle that if a new title is required, you move the article - you do not copy&paste. Template:latest stable software release/Maxthon has about 190 edits - credit to the authors must be preserved.
But in this case even a move was totally inappropriate. Do you understand what transclusion means in a MediaWiki context? If I had deleted template:latest stable software release/Maxthon, please explain how the release information would be shown in the comparison of web browsers article? Exactly the same goes for Skype except that in this case template:latest stable software release/Skype has more than 800 edits.
Please explain how template:infobox software displays release information.
I have blocked you briefly but I propose that the block should be removed as soon as you provide satisfactory answers to my questions above. — RHaworth ( talk · contribs) 20:57, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
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 Template:Clickable button 3, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do.
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.

Thanks for uploading File:Dart logo wordmark.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. GMG talk 14:41, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
