The article Cloverdale Mall has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No notability asserted.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --v/r Electric Catfish (talk) 14:47, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

[edit]
Hi, BouncyGlow, you'll likely not be pleased about this but I have suppressed a number of your edits which reveal too much personally identifiable information about yourself. We have a policy of protecting editors' safety by hiding such information if they share it. I'm really sorry about having to suppress your edits, and I know it's annoying, but it's for the best. Please don't re-add the information. For some useful information on privacy and safety, you can take a look at Wikipedia:Guidance for younger editors and Wikipedia:On privacy, confidentiality and discretion. Thanks, and sorry for messing about with your pages! — foxj 17:02, 14 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please be careful adding users to the Banned Users list

[edit]

I see that you added User:WaldenForKing to the list of banned users...

For your information, he is evidently just blocked indefinitely, which is different than banning. Banning is a community policy action, not just the action of an individual administrator. It requires additional steps and is only undertaken in worse abuse cases, usually after particularly severe and/or persistent (many months, or years) abuses.

There are several differences in handling banned users, and putting a merely blocked user in the banned users list is not good.

Usually we leave that type of update to administrators who are experienced with user abuse issues. I appreciate that you were trying to help, but please be careful in the future. No harm done, but someone could have gotten confused and done the wrong thing in the future based on that. If you are curious about the process, there is a ban that was just passed up on the administrators' noticeboard and you can also look at the banning policy and procedures. The process is open and we're happy to have new people come and get involved. There's a lot of existing policy and precedent but we do want it to be open and available.

Another administrator did back out that change, so you don't need to do anything else, but I wanted to make sure I explained to you what had happened and why.

Thanks for your time. I hope you have a good week. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 20:41, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"This is kinda mean"

[edit]

You deleted my comment with the edit summary "This is kinda mean", without even the courtesy of a response? Your edit summary is somewhat ironic given the unfair and insulting accusations you made on my talk page (which you still have not retracted). My message wasn't mean - I was simply frustrated at the nasty template you left on my talk page. I'm sorry if you thought it was mean and I apologize if I offended you, and it wasn't intended to be mean, but you cannot go around making unfounded accusations. You need to be careful with leaving templates like this, and almost always a personal message is better than a template. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 13:44, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your nice note on my talk page. I appreciate it. I'm sorry we got off on the wrong foot. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 13:43, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As the article does not specify in which city the mall is located (all I could figure from the street names was that it's within an English-speaking country), I assumed you were talking about Wellington, New Zealand. But I couldn't find a mall by that name in that city. Can you be more specific please? -- Blanchardb -MeMyEarsMyMouth- timed 23:53, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that this mall is in Etobicoke, Ontario. Farine (talk) 00:01, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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.

A tag has been placed on Kipling Queensway Mall requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Removing Speedy at Kipling Queensway Mall

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for taking the time to create a page here. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you created yourself. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the deletion tag you removed from Kipling Queensway Mall. Please do not continue to remove the deletion tag, instead, if you disagree with the deletion, you can follow these steps:

  1. Go to the page by clicking this link. Once there, select the button that says Click here to contest this speedy deletion.
  2. This will take you to the talk page, where you can make your case by explaining why the page does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do. For further help about the deletion, you could contact the user who first placed the tag or a highly active user who is willing to help with deletion. This message was left by a bot, so please do not contact the bot about the deletion. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 01:07, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with Kipling Queensway Mall. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Click here to contest this speedy deletion, which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. - SDPatrolBot (talk) 01:11, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Johnny Au. Your recent edit to the page Target Canada appears to have added incorrect information, so I have removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Another thing, your addition is considered ungrammatical.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Eglinton Square Shopping Centre, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dominion Stores (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Hi

[edit]

Hi Bouncy. Thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia. I'd like to ask you try to be more careful in your editing. You seem to be making the same mistakes repeatedly. The word you are looking for is "formerly", not "Formely". Also, use a capital letter at the beginning of a sentence, or for the start of a proper noun like someone's name, or the name of a company. Otherwise, use small letters, e.g., at the start of a comment in parentheses. Regards, Ground Zero | t 22:27, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi BouncyGlow. Would you care to explain why you removed the PROD tag from Glasgow Airport Link? Does this mean you are going to take responsibility for finding reliable secondary sources to establish its notability and working links to verify it?--Charles (talk) 00:17, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

February 2013

[edit]

Please do not add or change content, as you did to East York Town Centre, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Charles (talk) 14:40, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Square One

[edit]

Hello. Of course - that would be great. The problem is that the anchor references were unsourced. If you source it, the problem dissappears, the anchors can be re-added. As set out at WP:ANC, Wikipedia guidelines do not allow tenant or restaurant lists in shopping centre articles, but lists of anchors are fine.

As an aside, though, the sources need to identify the stores as anchors. In other words, the source needs to do more than just say Wal-Mart exists in the mall and is so many square feet - the source needs to say Wal-Mart is an anchor. If the source doesn't identify Wal-Mart as an anchor, then it's the same WP:OR problem all over again, because all we have are Wikipedia contributors guessing that Wal-Mart plays an anchor function.--Skeezix1000 (talk) 16:51, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello? --Skeezix1000 (talk) 20:13, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Could you please respond to the issues on the talk page? Thanks. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 15:13, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It's been four months. Please respond on the article talk page, or I will assume that you concur. Thanks. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 15:04, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Target under construction in The Pen Centre.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Target under construction in The Pen Centre.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 15:26, 4 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
