Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Esolo5002 (talk) 04:13, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited CCNY point-shaving scandal, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Agent. 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.)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved content from one or more pages into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content (here or elsewhere), Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. 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. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Esolo5002 (talk) 03:50, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that your recent edit to American Basketball Association draft did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account, you can give yourself a reminder by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary), and then click the "Save" button.

Thanks!

Thanks for your contributions to 2025 Redlands FC season. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit for review" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. JTtheOG (talk) 18:54, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Magnolia677. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Ferndale High School (Michigan), but you didn't provide a reliable source.

If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 11:39, 11 September 2025 (UTC)

I have reverted a number of your edits. Please note you cannot add huge amounts of "stuff you know" to Wikipedia. Please find sources to support your edits. Magnolia677 (talk) 11:45, 11 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm StefenTower. An edit that you recently made to 1947–48 National Basketball League (United States) season seemed to be generated using a large language model (an "AI chatbot" or other application using such technology). Text produced by these applications is usually unsuitable for an encyclopedia, and may contain factually inaccurate statements, fictitious citations, or other problems. You should instead read reliable sources and then summarize those in your own words. Your edit may have been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Various signs point to AI generation of this article. Stefen 𝕋ower ^{Huddle • Handiwerk} 20:39, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

It appears to me that the usual human editing care was not taken on this article, with huge issues to remedy. The lead is very dense and overly detailed, and appears like a wall. A big section with a list of patches of thick prose in place of normal paragraphing is very unusual. A lot of bare links given as refs is problematic. All these things point to the use of an LLM. Stefen 𝕋ower ^{Huddle • Handiwerk} 20:44, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

I am very sorry about that, I didn't take the proper editing care on the rough draft. Especially with the disambiguations. But I swear, I didn't use an LLM and my primary source is Murry R. Nelson's book. QBKennedy (talk) 22:55, 22 December 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your response. Whether or not you used an LLM, the article gives the appearance of computer-generated content not formatted as a readable encyclopedia article. Please put yourself in the reader's shoes – they will be overwhelmed by how this is presented, with overall walls of text, an overweight lead, lack of helpful sectioning, a list of large paragraphs where flowing prose with smaller paragraphs is expected, and possibly WP:OVERDETAIL. I hope you are not finished developing the article, as it needs a lot of work. For future article creations, it may work better to start in the Draft namespace while clearing up major issues. Happy holidays! Stefen 𝕋ower ^{Huddle • Handiwerk} 19:35, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

Hello QBKennedy, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, 1944–45 Pittsburgh Raiders season, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/1944–45 Pittsburgh Raiders season.

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|ViridianPenguin}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!
