Copying within Misplaced Pages requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. It appears that you copied or moved text from Cranford, New Jersey to Nomahegan Park (your addition has since been removed). While you are welcome to re-use Misplaced Pages's content, here or elsewhere, Misplaced Pages's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Misplaced Pages, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. If you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Misplaced Pages:Copying within Misplaced Pages. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:26, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of SeaQuest Interactive Aquariums
Hello Bhdshoes2,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged SeaQuest Interactive Aquariums for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Speedy deletion nomination of SeaQuest Interactive Aquariums
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 SeaQuest Interactive Aquariums requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
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 Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Daiyusha (talk) 20:46, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

Deborah Cannon Partridge Wolfe moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Deborah Cannon Partridge Wolfe, 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 Misplaced Pages). 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 Misplaced Pages'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.

BLP discretionary sanctions alert
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Anonymous blogs are never acceptable sources for claims about living people. Before you edit the biographies of living people any further, I strongly suggest that you review and take to heart our policies regarding such content. Further violations may be reported at Arbitration Enforcement as grounds for the imposition of sanctions. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 04:52, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:Deborah Cannon Partridge Wolfe
Hello, Bhdshoes2. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Deborah Cannon Partridge Wolfe".
In accordance with our policy that Misplaced Pages 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 edit the submission 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 Misplaced Pages! —Nnadigoodluck███ 00:21, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

Sources are needed
In this edit, and other similar edits, you've added details about bodies of water that pass through places. Presumably you know that Pumpkin Patch Brook passes through the township based on a source, so why not satisfy Misplaced Pages policy and add the source with each edit? And I don't know why Robinsons Branch has no apostrophe, while Robinson's Branch Reservoir does, but there's no need to add a piped link for Robinson's Branch. If the stream should properly have an apostrophe in the name, consider a change rather than playing with the name in links. Alansohn (talk) 15:15, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

Michael (upcoming film) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Michael (upcoming film), 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 Misplaced Pages). 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 Misplaced Pages'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.

- You might want to see Draft:Michael (upcoming film) (not the article you created). You should work on that rather than the one you created as it has more content. Sungodtemple (talk • contribs) 00:56, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Merck move to Rahway
Regarding this edit, George W. Merck was born in 1894. It seems unlikely that he moved Merck to Rahway in 1903 when he was nine years old. I'm not sure how to best re-word this, but it appears incorrect. Alansohn (talk) 16:12, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Jess Hilarious
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 Jess Hilarious requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
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 Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Removal of Bamboozle
As in this edit, why are you removing details about the history of the Bamboozle festival from the article for Asbury Park, New Jersey? Alansohn (talk) 00:48, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
- Hi! Shouldnt it only be active festivals? Bhdshoes2 (talk) 01:01, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
- Why only active festivals? The rest of the article has historical data and The Bamboozle is a notable event on its own. Alansohn (talk) 19:21, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
- Ok! It just seemed old and out of date to me. Last one in AP was a long time ago. But if you think it should stay, sounds good to me. Bhdshoes2 (talk) 21:53, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics
You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Misplaced Pages’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Misplaced Pages administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Misplaced Pages;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
