Hi Jim Cartar. I would certainly recommend that you ask for autopatrolled rights. It's not a request for permission that I typically deal with, but from the requirements, it looks like you'd qualify and it looks like you'd benefit from the flag. Thanks for bringing your article Early Nationalists to my attention; I enjoyed the read. All the best -- Samir 02:06, 26 April 2014 (UTC)
Hi, Jim Carter, and congratulations on your article! I have nominated it for Did You Know. The nomination is here: Template:Did you know nominations/Early Nationalists. -- MelanieN ( talk) 16:02, 19 April 2014 (UTC)

Hello, anything wrong with my page? I just create for introduction and for some kind of communication purpose. Hope you can understand and remove speedy deletion. Thank you K.b.cheng ( talk) 11:20, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
On a separate but related note: Jim, your claims in this edit summary are entirely incorrect. Under WP:OWNTALK K.b.cheng is perfectly entitled to remove both warnings and speedy deletion notices from their talkpage. The only things that cannot be removed from a user's own talkpage are: declined unblock requests which relate to a currently active block, notices of confirmed (not suspected) sockpuppetry and MFD/speedy deletion tags (not notifications). Everything else can be removed after reading; it's not preferred ( archiving is the better option) but it's not disallowed. Please don't restore comments on a user's talkpage when that user has removed them, unless they fall into one of the above categories. Yunshui 雲 水 12:23, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

OK, I took a look at the article. I found a couple of problems you need to deal with. 1) That photo you used, which you uploaded as "own work" - how is that possible? And... taken in 1994??? 2) There is a lot of direct copying or close paraphrasing, for example from here. That will have to be reworded so that is it in your own words. Also the "notable interments" is copied from here. 3) I think you should actually add more from the Greenwood Cemetery site: the fact that he became an undertaker (especially if Taylor Funeral Company is still in business, which it sounds like it might be), and that he left the cemetery to his church and it is still run by a nonoprofit. 4) In one place you say it is the first African American cemetery in Nashville, and in another place you say it is the second oldest such cemetery - need to straighten that out.
Now: since you were concerned about the length, it sounds like you are planning to send it to DYK. I don't really recommend that. DYK is seriously broken right now. Instead of someone reviewing it and that's that, there are a lot of people adding additional comments and requirements even after the item has been approved. Lots of second-guessing and third-guessing, sometimes even pulling the item out of the queue after it has already been scheduled. You can see the process in action at my last two DYK nominations, here and here. And you can see lots of discussion about it here. Bottom line is I don't recommend submitting DYK nominations until things calm down. Of course there is no rush since you still have this in userspace. You could wait a while before launching it as an article - to see if DYK stops being so unfriendly. But I am seriously not recommending DYK right now. -- MelanieN ( talk) 22:36, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
Aloha. I recently read about the mass messaging incident you were involved in. I know you were trying to help Anna, but do you understand the concept of social norms? On Wikipedia, many editors do not like to be contacted with automated messages. It's within the realm of possibility that by doing so, you angered a lot of people who then visited the Village Pump and voted "oppose" because they were upset about the unsolicited message you sent, not necessarily because they felt strongly about Anna's proposal. So for example, it's possible that if you had not sent out such a message, there might not have been such strong opposition to Anna's idea. It's important to remember 1) your audience, and 2) how you address them. Contacting a thousand admins with an unsolicited message goes against our social norms, even if you and I think it is harmless. Just something to think about the next time you decide to take the initiative. This is a variation on "it's not what you say, it's how you say it". For more information, please read Wikipedia:Canvassing. Thanks. Viriditas ( talk) 20:07, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
I'm never going to help any one again. Every time, I try to help; something wrong happens. Thank you again Viriditas for the message.
Very good words, honestly
Viriditas, you are a true Wikipedian. I'm happy and glad that you are my friend. Please keep my talk page on your watchlist so that if I mistake again (I will try not to make a mistake but if I ever), you can help me. Thank you very very much.

I agreed and promised not to use AWB to fix typo, matter ends there
|
---|
Sorry to be blunt, but since you seem to be brushing away every previous occasion someone points out your abuse of automated tools, I'm going to have to do this formally:
You're clearly machine-gunning the "save" button without bothering to check the "corrections" you're making. Today alone (I haven't checked previous days) you've 'corrected' Dick Stealy's name to "Steally", corrected a typo without noticing that the sentence in which it was situated was gibberish (this sounds trivial but it's a real issue, as it makes it much harder to identify and clean up after problem editors), again failed to notice that a sentence was gibberish while additionally changing one hyphenated date-range to an en-dash without changing the others, made a "grammar fix" that doesn't make the least sense and replaced a still-comprehensible typo with nonsense. AWB isn't a fire-and-forget tool, and YOU NEED TO CHECK EVERY EDIT YOU MAKE BEFORE YOU PRESS SAVE. Please, stop doing this, as while I've no doubt at all you're acting in good faith, you're starting to slip well onto the wrong side of the line between "well intentioned with the occasional error" and "disruptive editor who refuses to learn from their mistakes". See Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Rich Farmbrough for an idea of where this is likely to be heading if you don't slow down and understand that one well-considered edit is of a lot more value than a dozen rushed ones.
