This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Tornadoes of 2015, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Tornadoes of 2014. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.
It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 21:16, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, I'm Sjö. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Earthquakes in 2015, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Tornadoes of 2015
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
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.
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Tornadoes of 2015 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
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 "Click here to 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Dustin (talk) 23:00, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
- Perhaps I have improperly applied the criterion, but this article could be applied to any other tornado year at the beginning, and in its current state, it is of no use. The article should not be created until the formation of tornado #1, which will undoubtedly be soon. Until then, this article has no use. I have created a draft which may be moved to mainspace (I have formatted the article already; it is Draft:Tornadoes of 2015), and it contains more information. The reason I did not move the article I am tagging to draftspace is that it contains contributions other than my own so I do not have rights over. Dustin (talk) 23:01, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

September 2016
[edit] Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Hero Alom. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges.
You should report it rather than edit-warring, thanks. NgYShung huh? 10:09, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

Florida hurricanes
[edit]Hi,
I noticed that you recently moved List of Florida hurricanes (2000–present) to List of tropical cyclones in Florida (2000–present) on the basis that not all storms were officially classified as hurricanes. It's important to remember that in most casual and even many scientific settings, we use "hurricane" to refer to all tropical systems in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific. Officially, the National Hurricane Center calls it the annual hurricane season, and here on Wikipedia, we've generally decided that "hurricane" is the more concise and accessible term to use in article titles (like Atlantic hurricane, History of Atlantic hurricane warnings, etc). Moreover, there are dozens of articles in Category:Lists of tropical cyclones in the United States that would need to be moved for consistency with your change. I've reverted your move for now, so if you'd like to peruse it further, please start a discussion at an appropriate venue. Thank you. – Juliancolton | Talk 15:42, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

You created an article without sources, and I had to spend about half an hour to figure out that it does not exist. It is not in the database of the Kazakhstan localities, it is not in the census, and I found no evidence that it is an old name of the locality which was renamed. It is easy to check that the coordinates are for Ganyushkino. It might be a quarter of Ganyushkino, but I suspect that you just collect names from Google maps and bump them into Wikipedia without actually checking with reliable sources. If this is correct, you need to (a) stop doing this immediately; (b) if there are other articles you created in a similar way, please go and revisit them, before someone deletes them as a hoax, and you, as a hoax writer, would be blocked.--Ymblanter (talk) 09:23, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

AlternativaPlatform moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, AlternativaPlatform, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. czar 17:35, 24 September 2016 (UTC)

Not nonsense
[edit]You tagged] the article Story of Phillip Archer with {{db-nonsense}}. This speedy deletion criterion is very narrowly defined to include only text that cannot be meaningfully interpreted in any language. Clearly, this article can be meaningfully interpreted. The subject is obviously completely non-notable (and I have changed the db tag accordingly), but the text itself is not gibberish. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 12:46, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution
[edit] Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from X-shaped radio galaxy into NGC 326. 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. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 11:45, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
NGC article creation categorization
[edit]I have noticed that with your recent creation of articles on NGC objects (which is a project I had been meaning to do for a while, thanks for putting in your own effort to the cause!) you had been categorizing them with some atypical categories, specifically the "stem" categories Category:Astronomical objects, Category:Astronomical object articles by quality, Category:Astronomical objects by year of discovery, and Category:Astronomy. Would it be possible to omit those in future articles to keep consistency? Furthermore, it would be much appreciated if you also sorted Category:NGC objects to the NGC number (NGC 300 would be 0300, for instance) and sorted Category:Astronomical objects discovered in [year] by the YYYYMMDD of discovery. Again, many thanks! exoplanetaryscience (talk) 02:39, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Improving your NGC object articles
[edit]Hello, I've noticed you've been creating articles for some of the NGC objects. Thank you very much for doing that! Just some suggestions to improve them:
- Many NGC objects are not galaxies, they are open clusters or stars, so use {{Infobox open cluster}} or {{Starbox short}}, etc. for those.
- Also, for {{Infobox galaxy}} the
|type=
parameter is actually the morphological type of the galaxy (like Sa, Sb, Sc, E0, S0), not the object type. So just putting "G" for that is a bit unhelpful, since "G" only stands for galaxy.
- The
|dist_ly=
parameter is for distance. Distances can often be found on NED, but they are given in megaparsecs. To convert them to Mly (million light years), use the {{convert}} template.
- If you look up the object name on Wikimedia Commons, you may find an image for the galaxy.
I hope this advice was helpful. Thanks, Loooke (talk) 21:02, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you, this was really helpful. Just a question though: how would I find the morphological classification of the objects I'm looking for? Would they be found on NED, or somewhere else? Cheers, AlphaBetaGammaDeltaEpsilonZeta 10:39, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
- @YBG: I didn't know about {{tl}} and {{para}} before, thank you very much!
@AlphaBetaGamma01: Glad I could help. You can find morphological classifications on NED: there's a section that says "Classifications", and then a row that says "Galaxy Morphology." For example, NGC 413's morphological type is "SB(r)c:" or "SB(r)c?" – either one is fine.
SIMBAD also has morphological types. However, they are sometimes listed as numbers, like "5" for NGC 413. To convert these numbers to the de Vaucouleurs class, use this chart here. Loooke (talk) 22:31, 7 February 2017 (UTC)- Oh yeah, one more question: how do I find the standard deviation of a galaxy (for distance), since we can't precisely get the exact answer? AlphaBetaGammaDeltaEpsilonZeta 10:24, 9 February 2017 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks! AlphaBetaGammaDeltaEpsilonZeta 06:01, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
- @YBG: I didn't know about {{tl}} and {{para}} before, thank you very much!
- The standard deviation of the galaxy distance is also given in NED. For NGC 413, for example, there's a table that looks like this:
NGC 0413 | Distance modulus (mag) |
Metric Distance (Mpc) |
---|---|---|
Mean | 34.28 | 72.050 |
Std. Dev. | 0.30 | 10.112 |
Min. | 34.06 | 64.900 |
Max. | 34.49 | 79.200 |
Median | 34.28 | 72.050 |
You would take the mean metric distance, the standard deviation of the metric distance, and put it into code like this: {{convert|72.050|+/-|10.112|Mpc|Mly|abbr=on|lk=on|order=flip}}

Disambiguation link notification for April 19
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of earthquakes in 2014, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Yakutat. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
