Name move

I screwed this up. LoudLIzard, not LoudLizard. Capital I, instead of lowercase. RickinBaltimore (talk) 21:07, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

@RickinBaltimore:Ah, no worries - it's been fixed now. I appreciate the help regardless! :)

Archiving problems

Hi, I am not a new editor but was wondering if anyone could help me with a problem I am having with my talk page archives. As you can see on the right, they appear to be listing all of Wikipedia's pages rather than the list of my archives. I am using ClueBot III's ArchiveThis tool. Any idea why this might be?
Thanks in advance, LoudLizard (📞 | contribs | ) 15:45, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

User being helped on IRC. The error was caused by this bot edit, which appears to be a bug in need of reporting to User talk:ClueBot Commons. --Nick⁠—⁠Contact/Contribs 15:53, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
Thanks! I will file a report once I can gather some more info on why this has happened. LoudLizard (📞 | contribs | ) 15:54, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

how do I use visual editor back

Struggling to formate images with source editor--Makeamericagr8again (talk) 17:02, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

@Makeamericagr8again:Hi. See if this picture tutorial helps or maybe have a look at the images section of the manual of style. If that doesn't help, feel free to reply to me here with what you are specifically trying to do, and I'll do my best to help. LoudLizard (📞 | contribs | ) 17:04, 7 May 2016 (UTC)
Further to my previous message, you can access the visual editor by pressing the pencil at the top-right of the source editor. LoudLizard (📞 | contribs | ) 17:08, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

Pending changes in Aeroflot

Do not accept uncited modifications [1]. The article has been PC-protected for persistent unsourced changes.--Jetstreamer Talk 12:47, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Candover Clinic Logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Candover Clinic Logo.png. 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 the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:30, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

The article Jul baldovin has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Your contributed article, Jul baldovin

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, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Jul baldovin. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Jul Baldovin. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Jul Baldovin – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Melcous (talk) 11:32, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

@Melcous: Thanks for your messages above. However, I am not the creator of either of these pages. I actually moved the page with the incorrect formatting of the artist's name (lowercase) to the other page. Since then, the original creator of the page continued to edit on the wrong version of the page. I'm sure this was just an honest mistake, but please ensure you check who is the original creator of the page before putting a user warning template on their talk page. WP:TEMPLAR also applies. LoudLizard (📞 | contribs | ) 11:58, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
Hi, this is a glitch with twinkle unfortunately, it recognises you as the "creator" of the page due to the move and therefore automatically warns you. Not much else I could have done sorry. Melcous (talk) 12:10, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
@Melcous: Oh, I see. No worries :) LoudLizard (📞 | contribs | ) 12:18, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
