Welcome!
Hi CarmenEsparzaAmoux! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Misplaced Pages community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay.
As you get started, you may find this short tutorial helpful:
Alternatively, the contributing to Misplaced Pages page covers the same topics.
If you have any questions, we have a friendly space where experienced editors can help you here:
If you are not sure where to help out, you can find a task here:
Happy editing! Andrevan@ 03:08, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
Auto archiving
Hey! Quick note when adding automatic archiving to pages using {{User:MiszaBot/config}} - you need to ensure you properly configure the template when copying it from one talkpage to another. To be specific, the parameters |archive=, which controls the archiving location, and |counter=, which controls some of the archiving configuration, need to be properly adjusted for talk pages. |archive= should be adjusted to the new talk page, and |counter= should be set to either the number of the most recent archive or 1 if there aren't any already. An example fix can be seen in this edit.
Don't worry about fixing any previous mistakes - I've already ran through your contributions and fixed any of the recent additions for you. Please just keep this in mind for the future. Thanks! Aidan9382 (talk) 14:50, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
Excellent work
Great job on Cafe Ohlone! Blackberryrose (talk) 21:04, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:William Dorsey Swann.webp
Thanks for uploading File:William Dorsey Swann.webp. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:35, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
August 2023
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! Pi.1415926535 (talk) 18:11, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
I have sent you a note about a page you started
Hello, CarmenEsparzaAmoux. Thank you for your work on Rockaway Quarry. User:SunDawn, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:
Hey there! Hope you're having a great day. Thank you for contributing to Misplaced Pages with your article. I'm happy to inform you that your article has adhered to Misplaced Pages's policies, so I've marked it as reviewed. Have a fantastic day for you and your family!

Template categorization
Hi. Regarding this recent edit of yours. Thank you for creating and categorizing the template, but in the future please make sure to place the categories between the <noinclude>...</noinclude> tags. This prevents the categories from being transcluded to the articles using the template. Those categories were in this week's database report so that's how I found out and I have corrected the problem here. Strange in this case, because of the timing, it looks like the transclusions didn't have time to fully complete (transclusions are rarely instantaneous) and I guess that's why only three of the four cats were listed.
For more information see WP:CAT#T and WP:NOINCLUDE. Take care, happy editing, and have a great rest of your day:) --DB1729 16:54, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
Introduction to contentious topics
You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Misplaced Pages’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Misplaced Pages administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Misplaced Pages;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Additionally you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
