Hello, I'm Gab4gab. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, David W. Panuelo, 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. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Gab4gab (talk) 22:31, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

December 2020

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Falls Church, Virginia, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Misplaced Pages:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 17:43, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

2022 Minnesota Senate election moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, 2022 Minnesota Senate election, 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. — Amkgp 💬 18:54, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:2016 California Republican presidential primary

Hello, Augusthorsesdroppings10. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "2016 California Republican presidential primary".

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 deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Misplaced Pages, and happy editing. Liz 06:08, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

Concern regarding Draft:2022 Minnesota Senate election

Hello, Augusthorsesdroppings10. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:2022 Minnesota Senate election, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Draft space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for article space.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion under CSD G13. 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 occurred, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available here.

Thank you for your submission to Misplaced Pages. FireflyBot (talk) 18:01, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Piece of String, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page English.

Hampton Roads

With this edit at Hampton Roads, you changed the population of the "urban area" to 1,439,666. What was your source? Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 00:18, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

I've looked into the urban area thing, and not only can I not find urban area populations for the 2020 Census (only from 2010), I cannot exactly understand how this is any different from a metropolitan statistical area. As for the MSA populations for 2020, here is my source, which is the source for this page: https://www.census.gov/library/visualizations/interactive/2020-population-and-housing-state-data.html. I consolidated the MSA and metro area populations because an MSA is the official designation for a metro area and the "metro area" population was unsourced. Also the current population density is too high, it should be about 463.50/sq mi. Augusthorsesdroppings10 21:45, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Could you please provide a direct link to the source which shows 1,439,666. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 00:00, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

List of United States urban areas says this. But I now know that is an outdated figure, which is why I did not incorporate it when I made my most recent edit to the article. This is the aforementioned article's source: https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/reference/ua/ua_list_all.txt. Augusthorsesdroppings10 00:15, January 15 2022 (UTC)

Agnew

Shouldn't it be "more recent" since we are only comparing two (Agnew and Calhoun) whereas if someone else had resigned pre-Agnew, it would be "most recent"?--Wehwalt (talk) 17:50, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

Geezus

Have you checked Andrews IMDB??? 2600:387:8:F:0:0:0:7F (talk) 02:13, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

O.K., first of all, we don't consider IMDB a reliable source. If you can find a reliable source saying that he is dead, then add it back with a citation for that source, but don't add uncited information or cite IMDB. You can see that link for reliable sources help.--Augusthorsesdroppings10 (talk) 02:17, 18 May 2022 (UTC)User:Augusthorsesdroppings10

Adoption in Slovenia

Thanks for the ref, but the claim is still getting removed. We have your ref that adoption is legal due to the court ruling, but also that the parliamentary bill failed, without anything addressing whether that the failure affects the implementation of the court ruling. (Same for marriage.) Do you have a recent ref that adoption and marriage either are or are not legal in Slovenia? I justify changes to the maps with our articles and their refs. — kwami (talk) 17:34, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

Never mind. I think we're all in agreement now. — kwami (talk) 19:30, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

Max Miller Elected member of Congress. Link Anthony Sabatini Member of the Florida Legislature Link If i find more i'll say Sithbuilder1 (talk) 03:39, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

I'll say it here too. Twitter is NOT a reliable source for endorsements. Per Misplaced Pages:Political endorsements, they need a reliable source. Per WP:SELFSOURCE, they should be used minimally, and not in reference to third parties, which endorsements inherently are. Augusthorsesdroppings10 (talk) 03:44, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

About Eric Lynn

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. It appears that you tried to give Eric Lynn a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Eric Lynn. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Misplaced Pages has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Misplaced Pages:Requests for history merge. Thank you. AmirŞah 11:22, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

Actually, as you can see here, I made an uncontroversial technical request, fulfilled by User:DrVogel. I don't remember exactly why I didn't just move it, but the reason had something to do with the redirect at Eric Lynn.

I don't do cut-and-paste moves. Augusthorsesdroppings10 (talk) 15:24, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

At the time I didn't know how to deal with redirect moves. Augusthorsesdroppings10 (talk) 15:25, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
