Hi Elli, my name is Sam and I am a representative of StormPay (www.stormpay.io). The article about StormPay on Wikipedia is about a company that doesn't exist anymore and had bad reputation. StormPay.io currently owns rights to the naming and is not associated with the old company, however, when customers search for stormpay.io Wikipedia shows old information and the article has our logo which is against the law. I want to edit the article but Wikipedia didn't allow me.
Could you please recommend what I can do in this case and how I can change the old article or create a new one for stormpay.io? -- Stormpay ( talk) 13:41, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

Hi, and thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give
Template:Editnotices/Page/Lists of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into
Template:List of killings by law enforcement officers in the United States editnotice. This is known as a "
cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the
page history, which is
legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

To elaborate on this edit, I have not been redirecting forever. I started NPP run from the oldest, and redirected them as I came across them over the past 2 or 3 days. I don't know if there are more to come, so if you think they should not be redirected, I won't. About the past ones, I won't be going back to articles I have reviewed, so I won't be doing anything whatever happens. I only reverted to tell you there was an AFD (which I also found during my run). But it felt like poor form, so I am here anyway, so I guess I needed not make that edit at all. Regards! Usedtobecool ☎️ 17:15, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Hi Elli! I was informed via email from a couple of users a few weeks ago that a bunch of template pages that I created were nominated for speedy deletion under G6. Confused with what was going on and why, I went to find out what pages were nominated and what the reason was for. I ended up having to focus my attention elsewhere before I managed to figure things out. I eventually forgot about it and carried on...
Just now, as I was going through my old emails and deleting them, I came across the emails that were from those users that were notifying me of the G6 deletions a few weeks back. After some searching and peeking through logs, I found that you had nominated all of those edit notices that I had created for my user talk archive pages, and that you had created a group notice for me. Explicit was pretty spot-on in the deletion reason for those pages - I guess I never took the time to get group notices to work, and I just created a bunch of edit notice pages for each one instead... Looking back on that now, I guess that was pretty stupid and silly of me to do, huh? ... :-D
Anyways, I just wanted to reach out to you and thank you for creating that group notice for me. I took some time just a bit ago and read up on proper group notice creation at WP:EDN, and... yeah... it's actually a very simple process once you've actually read through all of the documentation on how to do so (which I... well... obviously didn't). ;-) Anyways, I greatly appreciate you for doing that. If anything, it forced me to go and read up on this, and I obviously learned something new. :-)
I hope you have an excellent day, and I wish you happy editing! :-) Best regards - ~Oshwah~ (talk) (contribs) 10:12, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
I wanted to let you know that tweaked the documentation slightly to better encapsulate who the template is for, and to suggest a default time for the expiry parameter. You're welcome to adjust any part of it if you feel its needed. TomStar81 ( Talk) 18:30, 12 November 2021 (UTC)

Hello, Elli,
When you tag pages for speedy deletion, please post a notice on the page creator's talk page letting them know what's happening. Twinkle should post these notices for you once you set up your Preferences to "Notify page creator" and make sure all of the CSD boxes are checked. But if Twinkle doesn't post a notice, you should do so yourself. This is especially important for a brand new editor so they are aware why pages they have created were deleted. Thank you. Liz Read!

I'd rather not bring more attention to this so I'm commenting here but just so you understand. You might think of it as benign or silly or whatever, but what you did here was grossly inappropriate and shows remarkably poor judgement. Sure, the article itself does not dox anyone but it contains a hyperlink which attacks three editors and doxes not just one but two of them. When you see that something is blacklisted, it is for a reason and it applies to project space as well, and at a minimum needs to be whitelisted before being included anywhere.

Hi Elli! I was informed via email from a couple of users a few weeks ago that a bunch of template pages that I created were nominated for speedy deletion under G6. Confused with what was going on and why, I went to find out what pages were nominated and what the reason was for. I ended up having to focus my attention elsewhere before I managed to figure things out. I eventually forgot about it and carried on...
Just now, as I was going through my old emails and deleting them, I came across the emails that were from those users that were notifying me of the G6 deletions a few weeks back. After some searching and peeking through logs, I found that you had nominated all of those edit notices that I had created for my user talk archive pages, and that you had created a group notice for me. Explicit was pretty spot-on in the deletion reason for those pages - I guess I never took the time to get group notices to work, and I just created a bunch of edit notice pages for each one instead... Looking back on that now, I guess that was pretty stupid and silly of me to do, huh? ... :-D
Anyways, I just wanted to reach out to you and thank you for creating that group notice for me. I took some time just a bit ago and read up on proper group notice creation at WP:EDN, and... yeah... it's actually a very simple process once you've actually read through all of the documentation on how to do so (which I... well... obviously didn't). ;-) Anyways, I greatly appreciate you for doing that. If anything, it forced me to go and read up on this, and I obviously learned something new. :-)
I hope you have an excellent day, and I wish you happy editing! :-) Best regards - ~Oshwah~ (talk) (contribs) 10:12, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
I wanted to let you know that tweaked the documentation slightly to better encapsulate who the template is for, and to suggest a default time for the expiry parameter. You're welcome to adjust any part of it if you feel its needed. TomStar81 ( Talk) 18:30, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
Hi Elli, I hope you're having a good day. You have reviewed two of my pages in the past, Midnight Blue (Love Streaming) and Waterfall. I was wondering if you could please review my new page Cosmos when you get a chance? Thank you so much. —Bostonite01310 talk | contribs 16:32, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
My bad I didn't mean to remove 2 requests. Also I didn't know that it was a c&p move as I thought it was just a request to revert an undiscussed move. My apologies. ― Blaze The Wolf TalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:21, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
Elli, would you still be able to properly move Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing? The move itself was appropriate, just not the method. Not sure if I clarified that well enough in my request. GhostOfDanGurney ( talk) 18:33, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
Hello, Elli,
When you tag pages for speedy deletion, please post a notice on the page creator's talk page letting them know what's happening. Twinkle should post these notices for you once you set up your Preferences to "Notify page creator" and make sure all of the CSD boxes are checked. But if Twinkle doesn't post a notice, you should do so yourself. This is especially important for a brand new editor so they are aware why pages they have created were deleted. Thank you. Liz Read!

The article
2000 Alabama Amendment 2 you nominated as a
good article has passed ; see
Talk:2000 Alabama Amendment 2 for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can
nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility. Message delivered by

I'd rather not bring more attention to this so I'm commenting here but just so you understand. You might think of it as benign or silly or whatever, but what you did here was grossly inappropriate and shows remarkably poor judgement. Sure, the article itself does not dox anyone but it contains a hyperlink which attacks three editors and doxes not just one but two of them. When you see that something is blacklisted, it is for a reason and it applies to project space as well, and at a minimum needs to be whitelisted before being included anywhere.

OMG. Sorry. I've had some mistakes in different wikis. I'll fix it.-- TaronjaSatsuma ( talk) 20:22, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
Hello. As the one who came up with joke AfDs for Robinhood and Mike Soroka last April Fool's, I would like to apologise for my less-than-appropriate behaviour during that discussion. In hindsight, I should not have seen your nomination as targeting of any kind. Although I stand by my Speedy Deletion request for the two AfDs, I should have handled my on-Wiki comments better.

Hello, Elli,
Thank you for catching this vandalism. How did you happen upon a file talk page? Or are you just very active scanning recent changes? I worry about pages like this, that no one has on their Watchlists. Thanks again for all of the work you do here. Liz Read! Talk! 21:38, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
Please do not unclose/restore the RFC, we already have a discussion that has been ongoing for days and has been advertised in multiple venues to solicit additional feedback. We do not need a second discussion on basically the same thing. — Locke Cole • t • c 05:00, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, 2000 Alabama Amendment 2), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hello Elli - I thought I had successfully edited the Gallery page of Jewish Legion and apparently my contribution was removed. I uploaded a photo of discharge papers showing my grandfather's service in the Royal Fusiliers from 1918-1920 along with a caption. Now it appears to be gone although it still exists on wiki here: /info/en/?search=Jewish_Legion#/media/File:Royal-fusiliers-discharge-HermanGrant.jpg - Do you have any suggestions? Should I delete and re upload?

Hello,
You recently voted delete for an article for GNG, which is now at: /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/RobOps
As per my understanding, GNG eligibility is considered to have been met if there are at least two significant coverage from independent, reliable sources.
This topic seems to have the required such coverage in the following: [1] [2] [3]
Please explain how GNG is not met so that I avoid similar articles in the future.
