Tip of the Month:

  • Researching historical women writers who used pseudonyms requires careful investigation across multiple sources, as many women adopted pen names to avoid gender bias and judgment (e.g., being labeled a bluestocking) and, ultimately, to get published.

Emptying out categories

[edit]

Hello, Willthacheerleader18,

I hope you realize that it is considered "disruptive editing" to empty categories "out of process". If you would like to see a category renamed, merged or deleted, please make a proposal at CFD so that other editors are aware, especially if you are making large changes through a great number of categories. Do not remove all of the contents of a category so that it can be tagged CSD C1. And please do not "blank" pages, it can be useful for patrolling editors and admins to be able to see the category tree that a single category is part of. But, seriously, no more emptying out categories "Out of process", please start using CFD to nominate any categories you eould like to see renamed, merged or deleted. If you continue to ignore this, you might find your edits reverted. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 21:32, 9 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ways to improve Nima Taleghani

[edit]

Hello, Willthacheerleader18,

Thank you for creating Nima Taleghani.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

The lead needs to be significantly expanded. The subject's name plus 6 words is not enough.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Kudpung}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Pamela Brewington Cashwell

[edit]

Why do you object to listing the name of the degree she received from law school?

Because that is already specified in the infobox. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 03:32, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
An abbreviation for the degree appears in the infobox, but the name of the degree does not.Lawace (talk) 15:57, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
And that is sufficient. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 23:45, 25 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't believe that is sufficient. Why don't you want the actual name of the degree to appear?Lawace (talk) 00:15, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Because in the United States, a law degree is synonymous with a Juris Doctor. They are the same thing. The abbreviation for Juris Doctor (JD) is already listed in the infobox and linked there, as is common practice so far as I have seen on my more than a decade of editing here. There is no need to link it in the body of the article. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 01:15, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
In most instances where JD is listed in the infobox, Juris Doctor is also contained within the article. What is the procedure to mediate our dispute?Lawace (talk) 22:43, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Start a conversation about this on the article's talk page and ask for other editors to voice their opinions on the matter/take it to a vote. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 14:06, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The Ogburn sisters

[edit]

Good evening, Willthacheerleader18. I just happened to notice that you created these two articles recently, which I thought was pretty cool since they were my cousins. I spent a lot of time in Smithfield growing up; from your userpage it looks like you are very familiar with the area as well. Anyway, happy editing! Cheers, 28bytes (talk) 00:54, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi 28bytes, thank you for leaving this note! What a wonderful connection. I am friends with one of Lu Long Ogburn's grandsons, although I never met her. I am from NC and am pretty familiar with the Smithfield area. I hope you enjoyed reading those articles! If you have any pictures you'd like to add, please do so.. I do not have any that are within copyright. Have a great day! -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 18:37, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reversion of edits on Catholic church

[edit]

You have reverted scores of edits on the text of Catholic church article, without giving a justification. Many of these edits were discussed in the Talk pages and made in response to a review. Please provide justification for each of the changes you made or undo your reversion. Rick Jelliffe (talk) 21:16, 4 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This conversation is for the talk page on that article, not here, and is already ongoing. Those edits, aside from the replacement of the photo which was agreed upon on that talk page by other editors, have been reverted anyway. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 21:18, 4 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You can look at the documentation for the template you are using but it is also helpful to use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and ensure that the values you have added are displaying correctly.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Jewish American slave owners

[edit]

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 Category:Jewish American slave owners requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at [[1]]. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, 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 "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 deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Speedy deletion nomination of Lilly Contino

[edit]

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 Lilly Contino requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "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 deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Spritor (talk) 00:16, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Spritor: Seeing as you already opened up an AfD, I have removed your speedy deletion tag. There is no reason to do both when AfD is sufficient. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 00:25, 10 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
