Welcome!

Hello, Elevatorrailfan, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Sony T Series cameras, may not conform to some of Misplaced Pages's guidelines, and may not be retained.

Your contributed article, Sony T Series cameras

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.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Sony T Series cameras. First, thank you for your contribution; Misplaced Pages relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – List of Sony Cyber-shot cameras. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Misplaced Pages. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at List of Sony Cyber-shot cameras – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Misplaced Pages looks forward to your future contributions. --evrik 05:34, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Haughton Elevator Company

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 Haughton Elevator Company, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can place a request here. Triplestop (talk) 07:37, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

Loch Ness Monster

Your recent editing history at Loch Ness Monster shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your 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.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

RE: Donetsk People's Republic Flag

It's okay! The first article was located at Flag of the Donetsk People's Republic; however, since Misplaced Pages consensus has established that it should be deleted (deletion discussion here), it's no longer available. Hope that helps, § DDima 04:58, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

Since the first article was deleted, would that mean the article I created was deleted by mistake? Elevatorrailfan (talk) 05:04, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

Well , since the first article was already deleted, creating a second one would not necessarily be correct since Misplaced Pages editors have established consensus that the article should not exist in the first place. There is a reason why it was deleted, and it is listed in that discussion that I linked to above. I would recommend not to recreate it, or rather place the information somewhere else regarding the DNR... § DDima 07:29, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

Minor edits

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Kingdom of Scotland, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Mutt Lunker (talk) 23:19, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your 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.

Colony of New South Wales

Please note that the colony of New South Wales is not the same as the present New South Wales. The original colony included most of the Australian mainland, extending west into what is now Western Australia. It's placement in an irrelevant section of New South Wales can be confusing to non-Australian readers. The infobox is more appropriately placed in History of New South Wales]. --AussieLegend (✉) 10:27, 14 September 2014 (UTC)

Donetsk edit-warring

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Donetsk. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.-- Toddy1 (talk) 03:03, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

Infobox successors and predecessors

I agree with ‎Tóraí, on articles about states, keep the predecessors and successors as states only. Otherwise we could add Scotland as a successor to Kingdom of Scotland, and so on. It's unnecessary and confusing. That said, the obvious exception is when the article's about a subdivision itself, like Southern Ireland. Regards, Rob984 (talk) 10:18, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Your edit at Greek military junta

Hi there. I have reverted your edit at Greek military junta because most of your revert was not compliant with WP:MOS. You introduced short dashes where years are supposed to be separated by long dashes. Further, year intervals are not supposed to repeat the whole year for the end year. Also you eliminated the definitive article in front of "Turkish invasion", an action which introduced a grammatical mistake to the article. Going forward, please be more careful with your reversals. Thank you in advance. Δρ.Κ. 18:24, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

My apologies, I forgot to check all of the differences between revisions. All I intended to do was to change the government section in the infobox. Elevatorrailfan (talk) 18:27, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for understanding. I'm not sure about that part of your edit but if you want to discuss it or implement it is up to you. Best regards. Δρ.Κ. 18:33, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

Breach of the three-revert rule

Your recent editing history at Polish United Workers' Party shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's 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 BRD 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 your 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.
