Regarding your recent edit to AVID:Logos From 1951/Unknown date

Information icon Hi, Patrick McCarthy , 22. It appears you are engaging in an edit war at AVID:Logos From 1951/Unknown date. This is when users disagree over the content of an article and repeatedly revert each other's edits. This type of editing is disruptive and unproductive. Please discuss the issue on the article's talk page before editing further. Thank You. Camenati (talk) 15:24, 27 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Draft articles

Hi, Patrick McCarthy , 22. I should ask you not to move the Draft articles I create into mainspace without asking me first. There are some inaccuracies and grammar errors I had found in your description for Venezuela Libre y Democrática that I had noticed and had to fix. I believe something like this has also happened before with the Draft:Canal 9 (Peru) page last week, but according to what was written in the User Reports page, that didn't feel report-worthy by the staff. But still, please let me know whenever you edit a draft page I want to make so I can go ahead and try to fix the errors in the description immediately and attempt to submit the article by myself. Thank you. SnowflakesOmega (talk) 03:00, 15 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

A disclaimer from me

Hello, I must have to advice you that I do not want to keep editing and fixing every page you make. These last two weeks, most of my activities in this wiki have been trying to fix most of the errors I've found in your articles. In brief, here's all the stuff you don't seem to take attention towards:

  • You use a lot of odd grammar - i.e utilizing "saying" like if the text is speaking to the viewer, confusing certain words (like "expert" (someone with knowledge in a certain topic) with excerpt (an extract of something)), utilizing "then" too much, small errors in punctuation, utilizing "A opening theme of a movie" instead of using the word "the" like everyone else.
  • You do not add credits to the pages (just put your username in "compiled" as you're the one who's writing most of the article).
  • Lack of spaces or line breaks when adding categories.
  • Overlooking a lot of logo aspects or specifying them too much (especially with fanfares for the latter).

Please take notes of what I had written above and try to improve on how you write descriptions. I believe that, with the writing abilities you have, most of the pages you have created do not seem good enough to be added to Mainspace. Try to make drafts for the logos you're researching instead, and staff will guide you on how to improve like I'm advising you.

I don't want to bug you with this subject matter no further, so just take this as a reminder. Thanks in advance. Yuuko2K (talk) 03:44, 6 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
