How Can I Edit Categories? DSOFOreverTYU (talk) 18:16, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
- Hi DSOFOreverTYU, can i clarify, are you looking to add/remove categories to pages? If not could i ask you to clarify what your looking to do with them please. Amortias (T)(C) 20:59, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
- Category pages can be edited, just as other pages, but this only applies to some head matter at the top of the page and not to the content of the category. Most of the time, there is no need to edit the category page.
- Pages are assigned to categories by entries on the article page itself. If you look at the bottom of a page, there is usually code like
[[Category:Some category 1]]that makes the page where it appears a member of the category named 'Some category 1'. - Renaming categories is a more involved process and that is generally done only after a discussion and with the help of a bot, since the renaming affects every page in the category.
- While anyone can create a new category and add pages to it, this sort of activity should best be done by someone familiar with the various polices that apply to categorization. There are conventions about naming, about when a category is a sub-category or super-category of some other category, and the often-confusing issue of diffusing categories vs non-diffusing categories.
- The general entry point for this topic is at WP:Categorization. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 01:07, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

How Can I Lock Pages To Prevent Vandalism? DSOFOreverTYU (talk) 17:46, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
- WP:RFPP is where you request page protection for each individual article. Only admins have thee authorization to add page protection. — Maile (talk) 18:40, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
Tick Tock (Clean Bandit and Mabel song)[edit]
Hi, I'm Hayman30. Please read WP:NOTBROKEN. There is nothing wrong with linking to redirects, hence there is no need to pipe them. Camille Purcell is credited as Kamille on the song, and Kamille is a valid redirect, hence we can simply link to the redirect. Hayman30 (talk) 18:11, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
September 2020[edit]
Hello, I'm Robvanvee. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Saweetie, 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. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Robvanvee 17:45, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

DYK nomination for Eurovision Song Contest 1997[edit]
Hi there. I appreciate your enthusiasm in nominating the article on Eurovision Song Contest 1997 for the "Did you know" section on the main page, however it is highly likely that your nomination will be rejected given that the article does not currently meet the eligibility criteria for inclusion. I feel it would be wise for you to read through the rules for DYK and the supplementary guidelines before nominating further articles. Additionally, consider installing the DYK check which allows users to very easily check if an article is suitable for DYK. Sims2aholic8 (talk) 17:00, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
I thought that if it gained a good article title in the last week it is possible for to be in DYK. DSOFOreverTYU (talk) 17:03, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
- Normally yes, however the review on that article was considered invalid as it did not follow the usual procedures for a GA review and thus the GA status was reverted. The full account of the issue can be found here. The article is still nominated for GA review however, and as I mentioned in my comment on the DYK nomination template the plan was to nominate once a thorough GA review is concluded and once the article has been officially passed.

Alika Milova moved to draftspace[edit]
Unfortunately, an article you recently created Alika Milova, is not ready as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage with citations from reliable and independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. I've moved your article 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 WP:GNG guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. M.Ashraf333 (talk) 18:41, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
M.Ashraf333, Okay, I will add sources and more content to the page and submit it to review when I am done. DSOFOreverTYU (talk) 19:17, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

Concern regarding Draft:Cyan Kicks[edit]
Hello, DSOFOreverTYU. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Cyan Kicks, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.
If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 09:02, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
