Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden, does not have enough sources and citations 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.

- If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
- If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

Hello, Panda815!
Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk.

[edit]December 2019
[edit]Hello, I'm Alex 21. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Doctor Who (series 12), 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, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. -- /Alex/21 11:29, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
- The note very specifically says to wait for BBC-official confirmation. The Twitter account you used is also not a verified account, and thus cannot be used as a source. -- /Alex/21 11:30, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
- I've found a better source, with a direct quote from Chibnall about the episode. Cheers. -- /Alex/21 11:41, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden, a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.
If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.
You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.
If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.
Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:31, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Your addition to Doctor Who (series 12) has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. This message is referring to your addition of BBC copyrighted pre-episode summaries to the article. Some publications have a license to use these summaries, but Wikipedia does not.
On a note unrelated to the copyright issue, please don't include links to the draft space e.g. Draft:Orphan 55 to the mainspace e.g. Doctor Who (series 12). A link should only be made once the draft article is moved to the mainspace. Best wishes --TedEdwards 19:57, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
- To remind you again, draft articles must NEVER be linked into the mainspace, as you did here. --TedEdwards 18:12, 11 January 2020 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden
[edit]Hello, Panda815. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}
, {{db-draft}}
, or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! UnitedStatesian (talk) 14:41, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for February 16
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Regeneration (Doctor Who), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bill Potts (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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) 15:14, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

[edit]Your recent editing history at Doctor Who shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

[edit]File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Doctor Who Legend of the Sea Devils.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Doctor Who Legend of the Sea Devils.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status and its source. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.
If you did not create this work entirely yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. You will also need to state under what licensing terms it was released. Please refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file.
Please add this information by editing the image description page. If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Vladlen Manilov ✉ / 14:00, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Doctor Who Legend of the Sea Devils.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Doctor Who Legend of the Sea Devils.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 00:14, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
File will be used for an article which is currently a draft. Draft:Legend of the Sea Devils already has a field for it. Panda815 (talk) 17:26, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

mentioning XYZ2023 on Shetland (TV series) Revision history
[edit]The diff, that made you think, I "put the number 7 in Billy's series bracket", was just a revert in order to avoid the change saying, that Mark Bonnar participated only in series 1–7. The number 7 in Billy's series bracket was just an unintended side-effect. This is where it got introduced initially. --XYZ2023 (talk) 11:56, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
- My apologies, I saw the first instance of it and didn’t go any further. I can’t change my mentioning of you now to @Gareth Griffith-Jones who actually did it but thanks so much for digging out where it happened and who it was. Panda815 (talk) 12:07, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
- Sometimes I am also tempted to mention resp. blame somebody in the revision history. But it is mostly a bad idea, because it cannot be changed, once I know better. --XYZ2023 (talk) 12:10, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
- I’ve learnt that lesson now and won’t be doing again before checking. Panda815 (talk) 12:24, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

[edit]Hi Panda815! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Phillip Schofield several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.
All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Phillip Schofield, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. You may be interested in reading MOS:LEAD.. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 11:10, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Gaia Octavia Agrippa
- I am aware of the edit war policy! Thanks very much for the reminder though. I am more than happy to take it to the talk page, as is recommended, however, reversions of my edit seem to be done by lots of different users and with no reason provided. Therefore it seems that it wouldn't be so easy to have a discussion as those users aren't actually looking at my reasoning that is already there. This means that a talk page article may not gain any traction and could go unnoticed.
- Those were my reasons for not going to talk page and continually reverting. Hope that helps you understand where I'm coming from!
