Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In the future, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history, as well as helping prevent edit conflicts. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

The Show preview button is right next to the Publish changes button and below the edit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you. - Sumanuil (talk) 18:18, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I will keep in check. Regards. Obawinner (talk) 19:27, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Captions[edit]

Please use more accurate captions for images. Right now you're just copying and pasting the filename, but that's not what a caption is. The caption should describe the image. See WP:CAPTION for more guidance. ProcSock (talk) 12:40, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I will keep to check. Obawinner (talk) 12:43, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Please also slow down in general. Images need to be relevant. A good number of your recent contribs aren't correct or aren't relevant to the article. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 15:30, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
In regards to that, your recent image posting to Carl Sieg was incorrectly captioned, although that probably wasn't entirely your error, as the image in Wikidata was incorrect. Be sure to translate any language you're not fluent in. WQUlrich (talk) 11:27, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

August 2021[edit]

Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Betty Ford Center, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Please make sure the images you're adding add value to the articles. Simply putting them there for contest credit does not improve the encyclopedia. Thank you Star Mississippi 19:04, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

About Inserting of Images[edit]

Hi! I've seen your contributions regarding inserting of Images of many personalities. I appreciate your contributions but please be aware of this thing that which article the image belongs to. Just like you inserted the image of Ghulam Mustafa Jatoi's image in Ghulam Murtaza Jatoi. Therefore, I'll request you to keep check about knowing that the image highlights which personality/article's subject etc., in order to avoid confusion in future too. Thank You.Wallu2 (talk) 18:10, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for July 2[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Suicide in Nigeria, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page LUTH. 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.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 19:48, 2 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Lagos State Model College, Igbogbo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://lagosschoolsonline.com/schools/profile/9720. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 deleted 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.

Oluwaseyi Moejoh moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Oluwaseyi Moejoh, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) 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. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your draft article, Draft:Oluwaseyi Moejoh[edit]

Hello, Obawinner. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Oluwaseyi Moejoh".
