New Article[edit]
Why are so wicked by redrecting new article I created .
Please don't touch that page again ,you're not been reasonable at all,but just a wicked person who think he knows too much Mfksports (talk) 20:05, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
- I moved it into draftspace because in it's current state, it does not belong in mainspace. It needs improvements and needs to comply to the manual of style. I see that you have since moved the page back. In my judgement, that page has not changed since I moved it. It may be moved back into a draft by another editor, or, it may be expanded! Still, I believe I left a message on your talk page detailing why I moved the page. WhoAteMyButter (📨talk│📝contribs) 20:13, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

Citing Issues[edit]
Apologies as we work to correctly cite articles here. We've cited from a published source and have many. Please advise if you have recommendations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Calwave (talk • contribs) 04:10, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
- Hi. Thank you for reaching out to me. To begin with, the sources that you cite have issues with them:
- 1. They are self-published. We need independent, 3rd party sources.
- 2. They are not reliable, as they are press-releases.
- You should read Help:Referencing for beginners. I hope this helps. Please, {{ping}} me if you need more help. WhoAteMyButter (📨talk│📝contribs) 04:33, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

- I have been wondering about that. In fact, the colors are different! You are #FFA500, I am #FFB300. You can deny it all you want, but I know the truth! WhoAteMyButter (📨talk│📝contribs) 05:19, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
