Hello, I'm Oshwah. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Ryan Morgan seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:07, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to Darcy Lussick. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:30, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did with this edit to Darcy Lussick. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:34, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Matt Keating. IronGargoyle (talk) 00:42, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 36 hours for persistently adding unsourced or poorly sourced content. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:53, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This blocked user is asking that their block be reviewed on the Unblock Ticket Request System:

Your submission at Articles for creation: Mark Soden (July 20)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by David.moreno72 was:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The claim 'He is considered one of Norths greatest ever players' is not supported by the single reference. This is unacceptable.

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Proposed deletion of Eli Levido

Hello, Sully198787. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Eli Levido, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

edit the page
remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
save the page

Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Replaceable fair use File:Jack De Belin profile image.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Jack De Belin profile image.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Train2104 (t • c) 23:21, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages.

Thanks for uploading File:The North Sydney Bears logo.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.

Hello, I'm OhKayeSierra. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Curtis Sironen, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include citations that have reliable sources to your information, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. The Daily Mail is considered to be an unreliable source on Wikipedia. OhKayeSierra (talk) 07:56, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A belated welcome!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Sully198787. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! OhKayeSierra (talk) 19:26, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

User Proxy?

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Sully198787 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. IP Address 194.176.105.171 Sully198787 (talk) 07:15, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

That IP address is a confirmed proxy/vpn. Yamla (talk) 11:36, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I am not an admin so cannot accept or decline your request but you need to give the IP address so admins can investigate (I have had similar issues). Lavalizard101 (talk) 09:30, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So does this mean I cannot use Wikipedia now?, because this is the only computer I can use to do edits with.

You need to disable your use of the proxy/VPN in order to edit Wikipedia. --Yamla (talk) 11:26, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Why have I been blocked?. I am not doing anything illegal.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Sully198787 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. I have been blocked from doing edits from IP Address 194.176.105.171, I had been using this computer and doing edits for two weeks prior to the block and now all of a sudden it is a problem, I find this highly inconvenient because I have no other computer besides this one to do edits with, I am not doing anything malicious or uploading anything that is poorly referenced or being a troll etc, I have no idea what an open proxy is but if it is such a big deal why block me now and not straight away?.. Sully198787 (talk) 08:02, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

The block has been changed to anonymous-only, so it should no longer prevent you from editing. SQL ^{Query me!} 12:45, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This has nothing to do with things being illegal. In the simplest of terms, a proxy is a misconfigured connection that allows anyone on the internet to connect to it in order to hide their real IP address (network identity). These are often misused by parties to bypass bans, blocks, and for vandalism/trolling. That being said - @NinjaRobotPirate:, would you mind taking a second look at this? It's an N3 (NHS) IP, I believe. I'm not seeing any ports open. SQL ^{Query me!} 12:39, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I could convert the block to an anon-only block. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 12:41, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Punctuation and citations

Hi there, I notice that in several of your recent edits (3 out of 3 I randomly took a look at), you are adding punctuation after references: <ref>. as opposed to .<ref>.

Politically correct words reply

Hey mate, nothing to do with offensiveness or political incorrectness, just that the terms 'wooden spoon' or 'dropped' might not be immediately understandable to a reader that doesn't have much knowledge of rugby league or the NRL. We try to keep the terminology as general as possible so that anyone will understand the meaning. Phrases like finishing last, or replace/demoted are immediately clear to the reader, whether they are an Australian NRL fan, or a foreigner whose never heard of rugby league.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Nimes Olympique logo.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Nimes Olympique logo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

ATTENTION: This is an automated, bot-generated message. This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:02, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Bob Farrar

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Bob Farrar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://thebulldogs.com.au/sportal.php?page=player&id=69. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Nice work mate, I'm not a league fan but it's a nice article you've written. I'm going to suggest an improvement for this and future articles which is "wrapping" the references.

I appreciate that it is not vandalism, but we have an issue of WP:Undue with that information. Our guidelines for WP:BLPs are much stricter than for other articles and we require a consensus before we put contested negative information in an article. Cummins has refereed 300 games so drawing undue attention to a single incident in one game violates are principle of applying due weight to an article. There may be a case to add something to the game article as the scope of that article is much tighter than the whole career of a referee. AIRcorn (talk) 10:02, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Beattie

That is not how Wikipedia works: we do not include all content that is factual and has references. Famous people have many trivial stories about them: an article that included every referenced fact about anything the Queen had ever done, for example, would be literal miles long. For people who have had very long periods in public life, we have to pick out the most significant things they've done, good or bad, and not include something a tabloid picked up that they said last week because some editor thinks it makes for a good yarn. Beattie had a parliamentary career of more than twenty years and a reasonably high-profile public life in the decade-and-a-bit since, and our article has to balance all of that. The lead section has too much trivial wank about his extra-parliamentary career as it is (who cares that he guest lectured at some American university, let alone what rank it is?, in fact I'm going to remove that right now). It's always an amazing feature of Wikipedia how often we get called fans of someone who's really a gigantic turd (like Beattie) because even gigantic turds deserve good quality, encyclopedic articles.

Category:Rugby league players from Sydney

Hi Sully198787, just a quick question... when you add, e.g. the Category:Rugby league players from Sydney to articles, are you stating that the person was born in Sydney, or that because they have played for a Sydney club they have lived/worked in Sydney, and hence are from Sydney? The reason I ask is that we have 1000+ player articles that are in the Category:Place of birth missing, yet they have a nationality defined, which seems incongruous. While the place has birth does not always define nationality, if that's all we have a reference for, then that's all we have, and playing for the national team of a another country via decent/heritage or residency does not change the nationality of the person to that country of that national team. Best regards DynamoDegsy (talk) 12:33, 12 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya DynamoDegsy (talk), is this articles I have created or just in general?. It would probably mean players who were born in Sydney and grew up there and came through juniors etc at a club. I'm not sure if I would have done it for any other reason.Sully198787 (talk) 12:18, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, apologies if I came over as being accusatory, that wasn't my intention, as it's for articles in general, and I'm responsible for some, as in my early days for, e.g. England national rugby league team players, I may have added not just the Category:England national rugby league team players, but also the Category:English rugby league players, but luckily the era of Northern hemisphere player articles that I've initiated, the players generally played for their country of birth not descent/residence, and fortunately over time I've found some birth references, though there are exceptions, e.g. Harold Bowman. Of the 1200 player articles that are; Category:Place of birth missing, yet they have a nationality defined, approximately half are Australian, so its whether we have reference(s) so that we can remove the Category:Place of birth missing and add, e.g. Sydney to the 'birth_place' field of the Infobox?

Your submission at Articles for creation: Blair Kurtz (August 10)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by CFA was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines for sports persons and athletes). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Stat entries do not count towards notability. The Daily Telegraph is not a reliable source.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Blair Kurtz and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

North Sydney Bears edits

I would like to thank you the edits on Wikipedia made about my North Sydney Bears. All of them except the removed Western Bears info was good. Yes, PNG won the 18th license as of now. There are still rumours that PNG will be moved to 19th and the Bears will come in a year before based in Perth. I would suggest changing the category from “Western Bears” to “partnership with Western Australia rugby league”. Yes, it was first rejected, but no, they have not said they are giving up. Also, who put in “where westerners continue to play”? That seemed a bit weird to me. Thanks for changing it from “westerners”to “they” Servite et contribuere (talk) 14:22, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't change anything until it is actually set in stone that they are returning. There was someone a couple of months ago who changed the entire article solely based off a Fox League article that said the NRL were considering putting a Western Australia/North Sydney team in. I changed it all back at the time. Sully198787 (talk) 14:36, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it’s best to leave it as it is right now. It doesn’t say that the deal is official, and yes I do know someone changed the whole article, thanks for changing it back back then. It’s also important to keep in mind that this is not a stand alone bid Servite et contribuere (talk) 14:56, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
