The answer to your question re currencies is that you didn't volunteer to do it. Now you can and should. To be fair though, tables are not the best place to start correcting things so maybe best you get some practice with 'ordinary' errors and omissions. -- Red King ( talk) 18:19, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mascalls corner until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

Thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from
El Al into
El Al fleet. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere,
Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an
edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and
linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{
copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also.

Your additions to Christ Church, Snodland have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

Hi @ Tbf69, following the GA review and quickfail of St Peter's Church, Maidstone, I thought I'd send you a separate message about copyright violation and close paraphrasing. As Diannaa has mentioned above, please do not directly copy or closely paraphrase text from sources–the article should be written in your own words. As detailed in the review talk page, there is evidence of copyright violation which you can identify from comparing the source and article side-by-side, or if you prefer by using the Earwig copyvio tool.
I'd suggest checking for similar instances in other articles you have contributed to. If you have any questions do let me know, happy to help as much as I can if you need further information or clarifications. Unexpectedlydian♯4 talk‽ 12:59, 7 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello Tbf69,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Krónan for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cruiserweight.

You've been making a lot of page moves. Some of them have been reverted already ( Le Train and as described in the preceding thread), and others hotly contested [1]. I saw you moved Canadian comfort cab to Wide-nose locomotive, citing a blog. That's not a reliable source and you should not have made the move based solely on said blog. The name of the article should be determined by what is most used in reliable sources, and you clearly did not make an actual attempt to gauge what reliable sources say. You're still a fairly new editor, and you've made some moves that should not have been made, likely because you are going too fast. Please slow down.

Re this [2], see Wikipedia:Canvassing. Though I've no idea why you think I would be interested anyway. AndyTheGrump ( talk) 21:12, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. Thank you.

Please stop edit warring to force your changes to Prime. Please read WP:BRD. You made a bold change to Prime, changing the long-standing target, without discussion. I reverted this change, and now it's up to you to start a discussion and find WP:CONSENSUS for your change.

It seems unlikely that you have been here for over 3 years, and made over 1700 edits, without being aware of Wikipedia's policy on edit-warring, but you don't seem to have ever received a warning about it before, so I shall give you the benefit of the doubt, and assume you didn't know. However, if you didn't, then read Wikipedia:Edit war now, because if you continue the edit-war you will almost certainly be blocked from editing. JBW ( talk) 20:31, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi... on what basis are you claiming "transport" is more common in Canadian English? I would say transport is more common when talking about goods/economy/commerce but in terms of things like moving people, especially transit, we use "public transportATION" here. You are making a lot of page moves without, from what I can see, much backing other than your say-so that transport is the right article title.
For instance, right in the opening of Transport in Canada, there are references to both Transport Canada and the Transportation Safety Board of Canada, so not sure what you're basing this sweeping "transport is more common than transportation in Canada" statement on. — Joeyconnick ( talk) 23:25, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
Starting another move request, right after the previous one was SNOW closed and everyone supported keeping the article at the current target, is likely to piss people off. It makes it seem as if you are ignoring consensus, and you'll notice someone linked WP:IDHT in respect to your behavior. Doing stuff like this is a good way to eventually end up at WP:ANI. I'm not threatening to take you there, but I want you to slow down and also check talk page history before making moves or move requests, as sometimes the moves you are proposing have been previously discussed.

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Your bold move of Rail gauge in Australia has been reverted because an editor has found it to be controversial. Per Wikipedia:Requested moves, a move request must be placed on the article's talk page, and the request be open for discussion for seven days, " if there is any reason to believe a move would be contested". If you believe that this move is appropriate, please initiate such a discussion to form the appropriate consensus. Again, please note that moving a page with a longstanding title and/or a large number of incoming links is more likely to be considered controversial, and may be contested. Note that such consensus is particularly required before moving a title with incoming links in order to create a disambiguation page at that title.
Consistency of names within a particular area is a good thing but you need to be aware of WP:ENGVAR. Different areas and countries have different ways of referring to them and in Australia the term Rail Gauge is used as can be seen by the formal title of the Royal Commissions and more.
As a broader comment you should make a formal move proposal via WP:RM rather than just moving things without discussion otherwise you will likely be taken to WP:ANI.

But you don’t have to reply to everyone, or challenge every person who disagrees with you. Your reply to Donald Albury, after he made his position clear, was simply sarcastic, and your insistence on citing WP:COMMONNAME, WP:CONCISE, WP:CONSISTENT and WP:PRECISE over and over is getting close to WP:Bludgeon.

Hi Tbf69. I've reverted your page move of Kingston upon Hull. See User_talk:SilkTork#Talk_page_archiving. As this is a long standing name, and is the name used by reliable sources, and is the common name, it would be more appropriate to get consensus for such a move. SilkTork ( talk) 11:50, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
Currently on this talk page there are 6 different posts about page moves without gaining prior consensus which then were reverted. For Kingston upon Hull the talk page already had discussion about the naming indicating that it was likely to be a contested move. I strongly suggest that you start using the process at WP:RSPM rather than making BOLD moves before you are taken to WP:ANI and someone suggests that you are banned from BOLD page moves. Gusfriend ( talk) 22:06, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
You created Hitachi Rail yesterday. What you've done is effectively duplicated Hitachi Rail Italy. Despite the different names, both articles are referring to the same company, and if you had read Talk:Hitachi Rail, you would have seen a link to this discussion in 2021, where moving to Hitachi Rail was proposed but closed as no consensus. The proper thing would have been to open another requested move if you believe the facts have changed such that the move is now appropriate, not barrel ahead as if the move would be uncontested when clearly it wouldn't be. I'm really running out of patience with your continued messing up of articles despite numerous warnings. At this point you are very close to a trip to ANI, which will not end well for you.

Hello. I can see you've been editing here regularly for the last two and a half months. I can also see that your user talk page, and Archive 1, are filled with various editors complaining about a variety of your edits and asking you to slow down. I haven't looked into the details of those complaints, but it's unusual for a new editor to get so many complaints from so many different editors about so many different edits (copyright, moves, edit warring, canvassing, you name it).
Today, you started your fourth concurrent broad RFC in the past month: 1, 2, 3, 4. Some editors in these RFCs are complaining about your failure to follow WP:RFC, e.g. WP:RFCBEFORE and WP:RFCBRIEF. In the 4th RFC, you created a new naming convention page and proposed its adoption, apparently without discussing it anywhere first. I've never seen an editor with less than 3 months tenure start a new naming convention page before.
In sum: you're wasting a lot of people's time by doing things that you aren't really ready to do, like bold page moves and launching multiple RFCs. Generally speaking, editors don't launch multiple RFCs at the same time, because RFCs are expensive, and we need to be careful about how we use community resources. Some might start two RFCs in a month... but 4? That's excessive. I am the umpteenth editor to come by your talk page and ask you to stop/slow down what you're doing. Please heed these requests. Please don't launch any more RFCs until you have more RFC participation experience, and until you understand WP:RFC, including WP:RFCBEFORE, etc. Don't launch policy RFCs until you have experience launching smaller, non-policy RFCs with success. Don't propose entirely new policies until you have experience launching policy RFCs with success. The same with bold page moves: don't do those until you have a lot of experience participating in WP:RMs and you know how page moves work.

Thanks for uploading File:Canelo Álvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin III poster.jpg. 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) 03:10, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an
edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and
linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{

Hi @ Tbf69, following the GA review and quickfail of St Peter's Church, Maidstone, I thought I'd send you a separate message about copyright violation and close paraphrasing. As Diannaa has mentioned above, please do not directly copy or closely paraphrase text from sources–the article should be written in your own words. As detailed in the review talk page, there is evidence of copyright violation which you can identify from comparing the source and article side-by-side, or if you prefer by using the Earwig copyvio tool.

You've been making a lot of page moves. Some of them have been reverted already ( Le Train and as described in the preceding thread), and others hotly contested [1]. I saw you moved Canadian comfort cab to Wide-nose locomotive, citing a blog. That's not a reliable source and you should not have made the move based solely on said blog. The name of the article should be determined by what is most used in reliable sources, and you clearly did not make an actual attempt to gauge what reliable sources say. You're still a fairly new editor, and you've made some moves that should not have been made, likely because you are going too fast. Please slow down.

It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you.

Hi... on what basis are you claiming "transport" is more common in Canadian English? I would say transport is more common when talking about goods/economy/commerce but in terms of things like moving people, especially transit, we use "public transportATION" here. You are making a lot of page moves without, from what I can see, much backing other than your say-so that transport is the right article title.
For instance, right in the opening of Transport in Canada, there are references to both Transport Canada and the Transportation Safety Board of Canada, so not sure what you're basing this sweeping "transport is more common than transportation in Canada" statement on. — Joeyconnick ( talk) 23:25, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
Starting another move request, right after the previous one was SNOW closed and everyone supported keeping the article at the current target, is likely to piss people off.

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Your bold move of Rail gauge in Australia has been reverted because an editor has found it to be controversial. Per Wikipedia:Requested moves, a move request must be placed on the article's talk page, and the request be open for discussion for seven days, " if there is any reason to believe a move would be contested". If you believe that this move is appropriate, please initiate such a discussion to form the appropriate consensus. Again, please note that moving a page with a longstanding title and/or a large number of incoming links is more likely to be considered controversial, and may be contested. Note that such consensus is particularly required before moving a title with incoming links in order to create a disambiguation page at that title.
Consistency of names within a particular area is a good thing but you need to be aware of WP:ENGVAR. Different areas and countries have different ways of referring to them and in Australia the term Rail Gauge is used as can be seen by the formal title of the Royal Commissions and more.
As a broader comment you should make a formal move proposal via WP:RM rather than just moving things without discussion otherwise you will likely be taken to WP:ANI.

Hi Tbf69. I've reverted your page move of Kingston upon Hull. See User_talk:SilkTork#Talk_page_archiving. As this is a long standing name, and is the name used by reliable sources, and is the common name, it would be more appropriate to get consensus for such a move. SilkTork ( talk) 11:50, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
Currently on this talk page there are 6 different posts about page moves without gaining prior consensus which then were reverted. For Kingston upon Hull the talk page already had discussion about the naming indicating that it was likely to be a contested move. I strongly suggest that you start using the process at WP:RSPM rather than making BOLD moves before you are taken to WP:ANI and someone suggests that you are banned from BOLD page moves.

You created Hitachi Rail yesterday. What you've done is effectively duplicated Hitachi Rail Italy. Despite the different names, both articles are referring to the same company, and if you had read Talk:Hitachi Rail, you would have seen a link to this discussion in 2021, where moving to Hitachi Rail was proposed but closed as no consensus. The proper thing would have been to open another requested move if you believe the facts have changed such that the move is now appropriate, not barrel ahead as if the move would be uncontested when clearly it wouldn't be. I'm really running out of patience with your continued messing up of articles despite numerous warnings. At this point you are very close to a trip to ANI, which will not end well for you.

In the 4th RFC, you created a new naming convention page and proposed its adoption, apparently without discussing it anywhere first. I've never seen an editor with less than 3 months tenure start a new naming convention page before.
In sum: you're wasting a lot of people's time by doing things that you aren't really ready to do, like bold page moves and launching multiple RFCs. Generally speaking, editors don't launch multiple RFCs at the same time, because RFCs are expensive, and we need to be careful about how we use community resources. Some might start two RFCs in a month... but 4? That's excessive. I am the umpteenth editor to come by your talk page and ask you to stop/slow down what you're doing. Please heed these requests. Please don't launch any more RFCs until you have more RFC participation experience, and until you understand WP:RFC, including WP:RFCBEFORE, etc. Don't launch policy RFCs until you have experience launching smaller, non-policy RFCs with success. Don't propose entirely new policies until you have experience launching policy RFCs with success. The same with bold page moves: don't do those until you have a lot of experience participating in WP:RMs and you know how page moves work.
We don't have any formal rules or technical barriers that prevent new editors from launching RFCs and such, but 99% of editors have the common sense not to launch multiple policy RFCs in their first few months of editing. Please, recognize you're new, start slow, build your way up slowly. Levivich ( talk) 19:09, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
Hello, I've noticed that you've recently made some significant changes to my userbox User:KomradeKalashnikov/Userboxes/British rail. I would greatly appreciate it if you raised any concerns with me before making such significant changes to the content of the userboxes I have made, especially considering the one in question was created on behalf of another user. Thanks in advance! -- KomradeKalashnikov ( talk) 21:20, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
