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 List of real-life superheroes 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 http://yourcostuminfo.blogspot.com/2018/02/real-life-superhero.html. 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. Onel5969 TT me 03:32, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Can you stop reverting my edits for no reason other than that you think they're personal attacks? What I commented on in "Wikipedia does not need you", for example, was a valuable contribution to the discussion but you're biased against me for using bad words and for my attitude towards admins, I guess.

On 5 October 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article H. P. Lovecraft, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that when H. P. Lovecraft was five years old, he was told Santa Claus did not exist and responded by asking why " God is not equally a myth"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/H. P. Lovecraft. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, H. P. Lovecraft), 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, Susmuffin. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Algernon Blackwood bibliography".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗ plicit 08:33, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi Susmuffin, curious as to why you're reverting any mention of Lovecraft's racism in the article on him? There is a lot of contemporary research as well as contemporaneous evidence of his racism and of its centrality to his literary corpus. It would be great to collaborate on improving the article. Cheers, Atiru ( talk) 22:29, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

Bots Newsletter, December 2021 | ||

Welcome to the eighth issue of the English Wikipedia's Bots Newsletter, your source for all things bot. Maintainers disappeared to parts unknown... bots awakening from the slumber of æons... hundreds of thousands of short descriptions... these stories, and more, are brought to you by Wikipedia's most distinguished newsletter about bots. Our last issue was in August 2019, so there's quite a bit of catching up to do. Due to the vast quantity of things that have happened, the next few issues will only cover a few months at a time. This month, we'll go from September 2019 through the end of the year. I won't bore you with further introductions — instead, I'll bore you with a newsletter about bots. Overall

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 List of real-life superheroes 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 http://yourcostuminfo.blogspot.com/2018/02/real-life-superhero.html. 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. Onel5969 TT me 03:32, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Can you stop reverting my edits for no reason other than that you think they're personal attacks? What I commented on in "Wikipedia does not need you", for example, was a valuable contribution to the discussion but you're biased against me for using bad words and for my attitude towards admins, I guess.

The article H. P. Lovecraft you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:H. P. Lovecraft for comments about the article. Well done!

On 5 October 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article H. P. Lovecraft, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that when H. P. Lovecraft was five years old, he was told Santa Claus did not exist and responded by asking why " God is not equally a myth"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/H. P. Lovecraft. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, H. P. Lovecraft), 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, Susmuffin. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Algernon Blackwood bibliography".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗ plicit 08:33, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi Susmuffin, curious as to why you're reverting any mention of Lovecraft's racism in the article on him? There is a lot of contemporary research as well as contemporaneous evidence of his racism and of its centrality to his literary corpus. It would be great to collaborate on improving the article. Cheers, Atiru ( talk) 22:29, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
