I'm a little confused. Why did you tag File:Composite Cleveland Cavaliers uniforms.png for deletion? How exactly is it WP:NONFREE? I don't get it. It's being used in the Cleveland Cavaliers article. I used NBA.com sources from the article to create the file. Sources from NBA.com are publicly accessible, IMO. Please explain. I just feel like every time I try to create a uniform file, you and other editors will tag it for deletion. I just don't understand why. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 08:46, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

Due to your editorial involvement in {{Alice}} I thought you might want to participate in the RFC at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Templates#RFC: Overhauling the Disney franchise templates for consistency.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 04:40, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

[[ File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|48px|]]

The article Richmond Mall has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not notable, no sources

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

OK, I understand that it is not technically a building or structure, but I am trying to narrow down the "year works" cat. What subcat would you but it in?--Bellerophon5685 (talk) 20:50, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, EL - Re: Hadrut Province - I'm trying to get Hadrut Region moved to Hadrut Province. I have already corresponded with the editor whose comment you restored. I don't make it a practice of reverting TP comments but in this case, it was ok. What we need is for an admin to delete Hadrut Province so I (or you) can move Hadrut Region w/its TP history to Hadrut Region. Please, can you help?? ^{Atsme📞📧} 18:39, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi. I'm not familiar enough with the subject to judge whether or not it's an uncontroversial move. If there is disagreement, your best option may be to remove the deletion request and start a WP:RM discussion on Talk:Hadrut Region. - Eureka Lott 18:45, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

No problem. There was no disagreement, it wasn't a controversial move - it was simply the same article with 2 different names, one of which was the wrong name. Ansh666 explained what template I should have used when a page is blocking a move - I'll know next time - all is good. ^{Atsme📞📧} 18:51, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

Since you moved the article, I moved its associated talk page, so they didn't get split up. Thanks for the note. - Eureka Lott 18:55, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

The name of the template is ambiguous; as you can see, I interpreted it to be a template of wikilinks to the tallest buildings currently in Cleveland listed by opening date, especially since the target article of the wikilink in the header did list the buildings in this manner. You can see why I thought that the omission of 200 Public Square was so glaring. I'm changing the wikilinking in the header to match the format at Template:Buildings in Chicago timeline.

I was wondering if you could do me a favor and take a look at the Glenville article as well as the Beachwood articles. There's an editor with an agenda who keeps adding the same redundant (and POV/unencyclopedic in tone, as well off topic in the Glenville instance) and I'm not getting through to the guy. I've left my reasoning on the talk page of the Beachwood in the past as well as explained my edits in the summary bar to no avail. Please have a look when you get the chance. Thank you.

Pleasae be aware I have proposed a move for the Third Voice article at Talk:Third Voice#Requested move 18 September 2018. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 15:08, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Dmoz.org.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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 Wikipedia (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) 03:36, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect War Zone(Crusade). Since you had some involvement with the War Zone(Crusade) redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Steel1943 (talk) 20:41, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
