Welcome to Misplaced Pages! I edit here too, under the username ], and I thank you for your contributions.
While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be ].


I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged ] for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain ''any'' encyclopedic content. You may find our ] to be extremely informative. Also, you may want to consider working on future articles in ] first, where they cannot be deleted for lacking content.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your ] or on ].


If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can <span class="plainlinks">''''''</span> but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=Shackles&subtype=delete|deleting administrator}}.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the ], but other ]es exist. In particular, the ] process can result in deletion without discussion, and ] allows discussion to reach ] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify -->


For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with <code><nowiki>{{Re|</nowiki>Ewhite31<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. And, don't forget to sign your reply with <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> . Thanks!

How you can help

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. We appreciate your contributions, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Misplaced Pages to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."

You might want to look at Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page.--PMDrive1061 (talk) 03:28, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Notification of topic ban

Per the consensus here, I have enacted a topic ban wherein you are not allowed to apply maintenance tags to any articles or drafts. Note, this applies to all tags and not just your list nor the shortcuts. Any violation of this topic ban will lead to escalating blocks so I advise you to edit with caution. Star Mississippi 21:47, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

@Star Mississippi:, I just got a message from Andy Dingley. Am I allowed to discuss the addition of templates on a talk page? --Jax 0677 (talk) 22:17, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
Belated, but I agree with @Floquenbeam here and the advice @Cryptic gave you as well as @Andy Dingley's first point: don't. While I wouldn't block you for discussing, it's a grey area where an admin wouldn't be wrong to do so if they thought you were using the Talk to get another editor to act as your proxy. Go work in another area entirely for a while, then try to learn where the disconnect is with your tagging and the community's views and then maybe consider requesting the ban be lifted. Star Mississippi 00:42, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
  • In case you're interested in drive-by feedback, Jax, I would strongly suggest not discussing adding templates on an article talk page. Even if technically, you're allowed to. It just brings you closer to the cliff edge. Just let it go, I'd suggest. Let article maintenance be someone else's problem for a long while, to prove to everyone you are not hyper-focused on the subject and might, eventually, be allowed to get involved again someday.

Would adding an "about" hatnote to Gunsmoke (album) to direct readers to Texas Hippie Coalition's similarly named upcoming album or "dab" to a disambiguation page such as Diwakar (disambiguation) be OK?

Thanks, for now, per your advice, I will post bare urls between "ref" tags and allow others to convert them to proper citations, like I did with Wake Up the Wicked. --Jax 0677 (talk) 14:06, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
No. sorry I thought you meant you would convert them. If you're just going to leave them partially done, I think that's an issue with the topic ban. Either fully convert them to a reference (and there's no reason not to with the scripts that take the URL and do it) or don't touch them at all. Star Mississippi 15:18, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
My plan is to add the URL between the "ref" tags, then convert them to proper citations when I am at logged on to Misplaced Pages via an actual conputer. I was afraid that "citeweb" might be considered a maintenance template. Thanks. --Jax 0677 (talk) 16:01, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Is my using {{histmerge}} to connect the histories of Rajput (surname) and Rajput (disambiguation) permissible? --Jax 0677 (talk) 13:30, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
No, you're still requesting someone to do work on your behalf. If you cannot complete the task, please do not add a template (it doesn't matter which) Star Mississippi 14:53, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Shackles

Hello, Jax 0677,

Welcome to Misplaced Pages! I edit here too, under the username Ewhite31, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged Shackles for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. You may find our guide for writing quality articles to be extremely informative. Also, you may want to consider working on future articles in draft space first, where they cannot be deleted for lacking content.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Ewhite31}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Ewhite31 (talk) 12:37, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

@Ewhite31:, thank you very much for your message. I think that it is perfectly acceptable for the plural to redirect to the singular. Thanks! --Jax 0677 (talk) 17:19, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

List of acts of the 119th United States Congress

Err…huh? Why did you add this redirect? It does not seem like it is correct (the 119th congress and the 118th congress are two different things), and it's not like someone looking for the 119th will think, "Oh, the 118th is 'close enough.'" Is it intended to be temporary? Surely it must be, but I don't understand. Was this a mistake? If not, please explain your thinking? Thanks. jhawkinson (talk) 09:22, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

re-huh? Today's edit is…not worse, but I still do not think it is better than either no page at all (where we were) or properly starting the page. What is your thinking, please? jhawkinson (talk) 15:30, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
@Jhawkinson:, "acts of the 119th United States Congress" should be added sooner or later to 119th United States Congress. --Jax 0677 (talk) 00:31, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
What does that have to do with my question? It would appear…nothing? I'm not even sure what you mean, but whether those words or concept behind htem should be added to a different article has nothing to do with whether the redirect should exist in either form. I have removed it and started the article. I am much more conflicted what to do about related redirect in List of bills in the 119th United States Congress, because I do not understand the encyclopedic justification for the existence of those pages. Anyhow, please don't create pages like this and add redirects in the future if you can't justify them. We would have been better off with the redlink, or the real page, but the redirect serves nobody. Thank you. jhawkinson (talk) 01:44, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
