- If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Sign your messages with four tildes (~~~~), be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
- When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
- If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.

Please don't add {{ stub}} as well as more specific stub tags, as you did in this edit, and remember that all stub tags should be put at the very end of the article, per WP:ORDER. Thanks. Pam D 23:02, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited One-storied America, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Native Americans. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

An article you recently created,
Alexander Gorkov, is not suitable as written to remain published. While it appears to be notable, it needs more citations from
reliable,
independent sources. There are large sections which are wholly uncited. (
?) 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. I did this rather than removing the uncited material in the article, which I felt would be more disruptive. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask on my talk page. When you have the required sourcing (and every assertion needs a source), and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Or feel free to ping me to take another look.

Viktor Anfilov moved to draftspace
An article you recently created,
Viktor Anfilov, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from
reliable,
independent sources in order to show it meets
WP:GNG. It should have at least three. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(

Hello. I moved the page of the article you translated about the beheading of a Ukrainian prisoner of war because I believed his identity was confirmed but this is not the case. Could you change the links at your userpage to protect this person's identity? By the way, I also moved your article about the Russian phrase, so you might want to change that link too.
