Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not replace pages with blank content, as you did with this edit to Food World 250, as this is confusing to readers. The page's content has been restored for now. If there is a problem with the page, it should be edited or reverted to a previous version if possible; if you think the page should be removed entirely, see further information. Thank you.

Hi, I'm Kudpung. Matthewshill, thanks for creating War Mothers Memorial Bridge!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please provide references

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

I found your sandbox the other day (I watch a category that looks for missing shields when you use {{Jct}}) and I thought I'd point you to {{KYint}}. It's part of the {{Jctint}} series of templates (look at Jctint for usage tips). Basically, it does everything you're doing in your sandbox but calculates the miles→km conversion automatically. –Fredddie™ 16:08, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Matthewshill, you'll likely not be pleased about this but I have suppressed a number of edits to your userspace which reveal too much personally identifiable information about yourself. I've done this per policy and for your own protection and safety on-line as you are a self-declared minor. I'm really sorry about that and I know it's annoying, but it's for the best. Please don't re-add it. For some useful information on privacy and safety, take a look at Wikipedia:Guidance for younger editors.

Lot of nice work on the state-by-state TV station lists, especially with some of the formatting work on the low-power stations.

Just wanted to drop by with a question, though. Looks like you got part of the way through formatting and updating the California low-power stations. In the process, though, you've removed about 30 of the records, and I'm at a loss to figure out why. Examples would include K18HD-D, KNXT-LP, KRVD-LP, etc. They're all licensed stations, and they're all LPTVs rather than simply being translators. Can you shed some light for me? Thx! Mlaffs (talk) 18:37, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I took those removed stations and put them on a word document. I now understand more about LPTV vs Translator. I used to considered translators repeaters of other stations. However, I now know, thanks to your comment, that translator is a class. Thanks for that note, because it's the first time I really paid attention to it. The reason I stopped halfway through is because California has so many LPTV stations. I will add those stations back in soon. I am trying to do it on a state-by-state basis, so it may take a while to get California completed. Once again, thanks! Matthewshill (talk) 21:36, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No worries - I had done a massive clean-up late last year/early this year (I can't even remember now) on all of the U.S. TV stations by state lists with regard to the class A and low-power stations. They were horribly outdated and incomplete. There's also such a massive amount of inconsistency between the various states. As you've seen, some states have them in a table while others are just bulleted lists. Some states only showed LPTVs while others had a separate section for translators. I decided the simplest thing to do was update what was there within the framework of each state's page, but I knew I'd want to go back at some point to standardize. "Some point" just hadn't arrived yet.

Technically, LPTV and translator are the same class. They both show up as either LD (digital) or TX (analog) in the FCC's records - you actually have to go into each individual license to see which it's an LPTV or a translator. You used to be able to tell from a character in the license number, but that's no longer reliable because of the new filing/numbering system that's been introduced. I believe the distinction was that LPTVs had at least some original programming, whereas translators only repeated another station's programming - again, not sure whether or not that's a true distinction anymore.

You previously moved a page to Bannered routes of U.S. Route 127 of Kentucky, and then copied and pasted the source to Bannered routes of U.S. Route 127 in Kentucky. You probably had to do so because the redirect at "Bannered routes of U.S. Route 127 in Kentucky" had been edited since creation, meaning you could no longer move an article over the top of the redirect.

For future reference, never copy and paste the contents of an article to a different page title. That is a major no-no with legal implications. I use the word "legal" because in doing so, you separated the history of the article from the text of it. Your single edit to paste in the entire contents of that article made the page history of "Bannered routes of U.S. Route 127 in Kentucky" look as though you wrote all of it yourself, when that is not the case. That action violated the copyrights in the text others contributed, and licensed, for our collective use. I've had "Bannered routes of U.S. Route 127 in Kentucky" deleted and moved the other page to that location.

In the future, if you can't move an article to a desired title, check the history of the page at the desired title. If it's a redirect with additional edits, the redirect will have to be deleted. There is a WP:CSD tag, G6, just for such a non-controversial page move. Tag it, and an admin can help you out. Imzadi 1979 → 23:21, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there, thanks for the enthusiasm in creating some new road articles. I have been making a few small changes to the recent articles you have created, and you should easily enough be able to continue with them on future articles you create.

Hey Matthewshill. Thanks for contributing to the encyclopedia. Just a reminder, when you create new articles, try to remember to also create the associated talk page and include the relevant Wikiprojects. These help interested editors find interesting articles and help improve them. It looks like most of your creations are in the same topic area, so this will probably be covered by {{WikiProject United States|KY=yes}} {{WikiProject U.S. Roads |state=KY}}. Otherwise, you can usually find the right projects by looking at an older related article where they've already been added. Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Kentucky Route 403, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Green River (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:19, 15 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Star City News 2018.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 20:45, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created, 2018–19 Buffalo Bulls men's basketball team, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
