User talk:McMadagascar

Hello, McMadagascar, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as File:Urs Kalecinski.jpg, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

A tag has been placed on File:Urs Kalecinski.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement of https://www.instagram.com/p/CmcKzB2vsM8. 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — 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.

Hello, McMadagascar. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Urs Kalecinski, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 09:03, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Loriendrew. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, List of tallest people, 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 referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 21:26, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi McMadagascar - your edit comment "unrelated suggestion: species that occur naturally shouldn't have a tag at all in my opinion" - I think that's one to take up with BirdLife Sveriges (and also AERC, since the A, B, C, etc. schedules are coordinated across Europe), rather than here! PS I'm about to start on the next section of List of birds of Sweden now, if you could avoid edit conflicts for the next hour or so, please - MPF (talk) 16:23, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at List of national birds, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources to see how to add references to an article. Thank you. --Yamla (talk) 20:17, 30 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi, my mistake with the revert, the link was originally just to "sheldgoose", which was somehow changed to that particular genus, but I now changed the redirect: FunkMonk (talk) 09:46, 12 August 2025 (UTC)

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Fred Gandt · talk · contribs 17:50, 27 August 2025 (UTC)

Will do! McMadagascar (talk) 18:46, 27 August 2025 (UTC)

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