Hi! Re: your edit on Julio Torres, I'm going to leave it for now but add a citation-needed flag. What's your source for this birthdate? For biographies of living people, Wikipedia only includes full birthdates that have been widely published by reliable sources, see WP:DOB. Bookworm-ce (talk) 16:00, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hi! Noting that I restored the citation needed tag, the link added in this edit is for an article about a completely different person, Alexander Torres. Happy to remove the tag once there's a reliable source (see: WP:RS) that specifically gives that date in relation to Torres, otherwise at some point we'll have to remove the date entirely. Thanks!

Excessive quoting
editHello, and thank you for your edits to Jack Reacher.
Wikipedia cannot accept excessive non-free content: the quotes you have included are excessively long and fall foul of our guidelines on quoting (for advice, see WP:OVERQUOTE), and so I have removed part of their content. Please reply if you have any questions. – Isochrone (talk) 19:48, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Juneau-Douglas: Yadaa.at Kalé High School. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Delia Owens, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Meters (talk) 21:29, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

requested move of Juneau-Douglas High School
editI have closed this RM as withdrawn since you targeted the wrong name, and asked us to start a new discussion. It is not possible to change the target of an existing requested move. Please start a new requested move with the correct target if you wish. Meters (talk) 03:27, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
