Help me!

can someone help me with uploading a file? Please help me with... uploading a file. I tried it twice and the first time, it led me to a blank page, and the second time it showed a error message about a blacklist or something. The garmine (talk) 14:28, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

It is really hard for us to troubleshoot without much more details. Please read this page and see if it explains what went wrong (file name maybe) WP:UPIGtstrickyTalk or C 15:24, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
Gtstricky its fixed now. The garmine (talk) 04:02, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

CSD

Hi, you tagged MMMAAAKKKR with G1, when the criteria clearly says " In short, if you can understand it, G1 does not apply.", the article was understandable, and you tagged it when it was already tagged, instead of replacing the tag with {{db-multiple}}, i suggest reading WP:FIELD if you haven't, thanks. Lil Johnny (talk) (contribs) 01:29, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

Lil Johnny:sorry. Im working on slow computer and I only have my list of speedy deletion templates on one. The garmine (talk) 01:42, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
Oh, may I suggest using Twinkle? Lil Johnny (talk) (contribs) 21:40, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
Lil Johnny:Twinkle Is enabled. The garmine (talk) 19:02, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
So if I get you right, you don't remember the CSD because you have them listed in another part but you have twinkle activated (and twinkle includes a list of CSD tags when tagging a page)? whatever just good luck NPP and read WP:FIELD. Lil Johnny (talk) (contribs) 19:57, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
Lil Johnny:yes, and the "part" is actually another computer. The garmine (talk) 00:44, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
Haha, oh also WP:NPP is useful btw. Lil Johnny (talk) (contribs) 00:58, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
I insist that you read these before continuing with NPP, some of your tagging are incorrect. Lil Johnny (talk) (contribs) 01:02, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
(edit conflict)Lil Johnny:oh yeah? lol. this little computer's so slow i'm afraid I might have to stop with this computer, even with twinkle! I tried to tag Two different articles for deletion with twinkle, and by the time I did, they were already deleted! lol The garmine (talk) 01:06, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

Your tag addition to Fourth Estate (association)

Read your addition. thanks. I've cleaned up the copy at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fourth_Estate_(association)

Do you think the tag can be removed? or does it need additional work?

Thanks

Speedy deletion nomination of Death of Tim Piazza

Do not create articles about living people that are entirely negative in tone and unsourced. Wikipedia has a policy of verifiability and any negative information we use must be reliably sourced, and our articles must be balanced. Negative, unreferenced biographies of living people are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Under section G10 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images in violation of our biographies of living persons policy may be blocked from editing.

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 "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.

What are you talking about? Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 00:55, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
@The garmine: So, would you care to explain your silly post above? I have no idea what you are talking about. Where on earth did you get the idea that my article was: (A) an article about a living person? Or (B) an article that is entirely negative in tone? Or (C) an article that is unsourced? What did you do? Just make up these accusations out of whole cloth? I'd like to know how you determined that any of these three characteristics in any way applied to the article that I created. In fact, when you tagged the article -- a full two seconds after I had created it -- the article content had absolutely nothing in it, except for the four words "Death of Tim Piazza". So, how do those four words constitute: (A) an article about a living person? Or (B) an article that is entirely negative in tone? Or (C) an article that is unsourced? Please explain your rationale. Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 02:56, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
@The garmine: I assume that you will not be replying. So, I am deleting this from my Talk Page. Thanks. Best, Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 02:41, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
@Joseph A. Spadaro: sorry. i was in a hurry and didn't realize that. The garmine (talk) 03:48, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

Help me!

Is Dammit steve a name that actually is allowable? (also, all he does is create pages that are deleted.) Please help me with... finding out if Dammit steve is a name that actually is allowable. The garmine (talk) 14:03, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

Hi garmine! Not sure about legality of the name, it is a reference to Scuba Steve and wasn't meant to offend anybody. About the pages I've made that have been deleted, in most cases it have been orphaned images I uploaded many years ago. I'm always trying to improve my work and the vast majority of my creations recently have been reviewed without a problem.Dammit steve (talk) 14:20, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
Thanks, Dammit steve. The garmine (talk) 14:24, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

NPP

Hi. We appreciate your enthusiasm but complex maintenance tasks are not for beginners. I have reverted the PROD you placed on Jacob Adams-Nahachick with the correct template. Please consider doing some more simpler tasks such as patrolling for vandalism until you have more experience. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. Happy editing! Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:53, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Kudpung : okay. Maybe stop looking for a reason to delete every page created and back to my basic edits like bolding titles and organising references. and what did you replace the tag with? The garmine (talk) 12:44, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
Click on the red link and you'll see. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 12:49, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
@Kudpung: Ok, but I was right and was tired and had like 15 seconds till bedtime. but you were more right. Do you want to hear a joke? The garmine (talk) 12:53, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

Darren Davidson

Is it a copy? Do you mean author rights abuse ?Xx236 (talk) 09:00, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
