Welcome to Wikipedia. A page you made may not meet our rules for new pages, so it will shortly be removed. Please use the sandbox for any tests. You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about changing. Thank you. Peterdownunder (talk) 05:50, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

Warning

Hi User:Peterdownunder! Your recent warning to my inbox was wrong. I found the page empty and it was created by someone else. My only work was to issue a QD notice . Thank you.Trunzep 06:10, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

I am sorry if I have made an error, but the page log has you listed as the creator.--Peterdownunder (talk) 06:17, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

No problem its ok.Trunzep 06:47, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

Copying pages

Copying pages from other Wikipedias is against our rules. These articles are not in Simple English, and therefore could be deleted without warning. Articles can be copied over, but they need to be simplified, and there needs to a copyright attribution to the original editors. A page you copied, Wizkid does not meet these rules, and will probably be deleted (if it hasn't been already). Just adding redlink tags or complex tags is not how it is done. Please read our guidelines on how to import or copy a page properly. --Peterdownunder (talk) 09:47, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

RfD proposal

Please stop interferring and wait for the proposal to be set up. Macdonald-ross (talk) 08:21, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

How am I interfering?--Trunzep 08:25, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

July 2016

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make helpful changes to Wikipedia. However, some of your changes, like those to "Zanzibar", did not seem to be helpful and have been reverted or removed. If you want to try out changing Wikipedia to learn more about how it works, please use the sandbox. Thank you. You attempted to update the presidents name, but also tried to remove the Wikipedia:Red link (read to learn why we don't do this). Please see Help:Wiki markup for how and when to use the "nowiki" tags. In your welcome message above are several valuable links that help show how to edit Simple English Wikipedia articles. If you have any questions after reading them, you can ask here or at Wikipedia:Simple talk. Rus793 (talk) 15:52, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Not helpful flags

Please don't add flags when pages are up for patrolling. If you can'r fix it, leave it alone for someone else to fix. Do you think we can't see what needs doing?. Macdonald-ross (talk) 17:22, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

QD nom for Orchard Island

Just a note. I redirected the page to Orchard Island, Ohio. I was in the process of creating the redirect when you nominated it for QD. The QD was my first thought also. I think the user intended it to be about "Orchid Island" in Taiwan and simply misspelled it. Thanks Rus793 (talk) 17:54, 6 November 2016 (UTC) Thanks for the help @Talk Purple Lamborghini¹⁷³⁸ 17:59, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Changes were not incorrect

Hi, I noticed a reversion you made yesterday by an IP editor on Eastern Orthodox Church: [1] Their edit summary said: Added two sentences about the Orthodox Church. Thank you for not warning them, but please take time to research what was clearly stated and did not appear to be vandalism before undoing. The sentences could have stayed as written. I actually added back the exact same facts, but with further explanation and wikilinks. Thanks and wishing you the best, Fylbecatulous talk 15:18, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

− Thanks for the correction. I'll research more on the Eastern Orthodox Church. Wishing you the best too! Purple Lamborghini¹⁷³⁸ 15:26, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

Please don't change user pages of other users

Please don't change other users' user pages, as you did with User:Fuhvah. If you see something on a user page that you think needs changing, you can either ignore it or leave a message on the user's talk page about it. I reverted your change because the text was OK the way it was. --Auntof6 (talk) 16:06, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

Quick deletion

Hi again. I noticed that you requested quick deletion on some pages and gave "previously deleted" as the reason. To use that as a quick delete option, the previous deletion has to have been through WP:RFD, not through QD. You might want to read the details of the available quick delete options at WP:QD, because the short versions that you see in some places don't have the complete requirement. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask. --Auntof6 (talk) 16:29, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

Personal info

I have just removed something from your user page because it's something that isn't allowed. Do not put it back. If you would like more information, please do not discuss it here, but email me instead. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 07:54, 11 November 2016 (UTC)

Warning levels

Much good work by you is slightly at fault by your not graduating warning levels. Even though you see clear vandalism by a user who seems determined to be disruptive, it is not right to start at level 3. Start at level 1 if the vandalism is trivial, or at level 2 if it is clearly meant to disrupt. Then you have somewhere to go if the user continues. If they have been warned before, glance at the date to make sure the last time was fairly recent. Thanks for your work, which is appreciated. Macdonald-ross (talk) 13:38, 16 November 2016 (UTC)

Hey @Macdonald-ross: I thought that you should warn per edits done. Eg.3 edits=Level 3 warning. I'll follow your advice. Thank you for your appreciation to my work and I also congratulate you for your adminship activites. Cheers and have a nice time --Purple Lamborghini¹⁷³⁸ 14:06, 16 November 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress

Hi Trunzep

In adding a vandal to the list at Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress, please remember to put the new request at the top of the list of user-reported vandals. Putting it at the bottom doesn't get it noticed right away. Lately, at least one instance of a newer user putting a request at the bottom of the list appears to have gotten it marked "stale", and no action was taken. Admins are busy and it just makes it easier to put it at the top of the list. Thanks Rus793 (talk) 20:18, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for the notice @Rus793:. Nice time n cheers --Purple Lamborghini¹⁷³⁸ 20:22, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

Finished Wikibreak

Am glad to be back from an untold wikibreak. Am from a 6- day teens camp in Oasis Eco Camp, Lake Elementaita, Kenya (Rift Valley Lakes). Had an AWESOME time there with spiders, safari ants, green mamba snakes etc. --Purple Lamborghini¹⁷³⁸ 09:34, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
