April 2024[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 22:21, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
- I followed all the guidelines and many YouTube help videos faithfully. I copied the writing style and formatting of other biographical entries, but my article was immediately deleted. Yet, I did not receive notice of the deletion immediately, so I was trying to move my article back to Sandbox. This process could be intuitive and user-friendly, but it is not. The so-called talk element is simply rude. It is one thing to say, your article cannot be accepted and needs this work: da da da da. Instead I find, only after hunting, a one line "your article was deleted." So now, Liz, whoever you are, you say "welcome." Well guess what, I don't feel welcome.
