Welcome!

Hello, SunloungerFrog, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:44, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello! Voting in the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 2 December 2024. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

After removing the PROD from this article, I saw your thanks and that you had added the template. Even on a BLP, we should be doing WP:BEFORE checks to ensure there's nothing obvious that could be added as a reference. In this case, there was {{Expand Spanish}} on the article - it would have been simple to check the Spanish-language version of the article and copy one or more of the references from there over.

@Reconrabbit Ha yes I thanked you because I ended up feeling guilty that I hadn't done WP:BEFORE, rather idly hoping that the PROD BLP might provoke the creating editor to put some references in. SunloungerFrog (talk) 09:27, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
You didn't leave a message on Fixer88's talk page about it though. If you use WP:TWINKLE you can automatically add PROD templates/AfD and add a notice to the creating editor's talk page at the same time. Reconrabbit 13:57, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, yes, I started using Twinkle yesterday. Makes it a lot easier! SunloungerFrog (talk) 14:00, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
