September 2013

Hello, I'm N2e. I noticed that you made a change to an article, BK Racing, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, 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. Thank you. N2e (talk) 19:59, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to BK Racing. 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. besieged^talk 20:02, 27 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Nelson Piquet, Jr. may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Richard Childress Racing

Hi Lukscheese. Thanks for the bubble tea!

On your work on Richard Childress Racing, thanks very much for adding sources. I have no problem with that new material staying now.

However, since you appear to be a fairly new editor of Wikipedia, I did want to tell you that the citations you have added are not full citations, and are therefore subject to something that we in Wikipedia call "linkrot". Basically, it means that what you've added is not as stable as it might be, and will be subject to a lot more change in the future than it would be with full citations.

A full citation will also include the date of the material in the source (if known) and the date accessed by the wiki-editor who consulted it, the title of the web page or news article, and usually the publisher of the source. Often the author may be included, if the source has a published author. I add tens of such citations to Wikipedia every day, so I would be happy to help show you how to make a few of your citations into full citations. If you do, just ask me on my Talk page. Cheers. N2e (talk) 12:36, 28 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I appreciate your enthuiasm for infobox work very much. In the future though, you don't need to add cites to the infobox - most of the information is already cited in the main body of the articles, only in very rare cases are inline citation in an infobox needed. Keep up the good work.

- The Bushranger _{One ping only} 22:21, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, as long as a claim is cited in the body prose of the article, then the citation does not need to be repeated in the infobox. But if the statement is not cited in the article, citations are appropriate in the infobox. Cheers. N2e (talk) 04:57, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for July 25

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lucas Oil 150, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mike Skinner. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

2017 NASCAR Home Tracks articles

Could you please let me handle the 2017 NASCAR Home Tracks articles? I've been doing it since 2014 and when others are starting to take it over, it'll get messy. I had to make quite a lot of fixes to the Entry list after your edits for Bristol and it takes way more time to fix everything than doing the Entry list edits myself. Thank you. Vettelisthebest (talk) 16:27, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for being so cool about it. I know I come over as selfish and controlfreak-y. :P Vettelisthebest (talk) 21:39, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Vettelisthebest (talk) Welcome, I'm from Brazil and I created a lot of NASCAR stuff on PT:Wiki and I hate when someone messy it, giving me more work. I understand what you feeling. Now I'll only edit something if it is extremely important, like you forgot something but only in last cases.

Template:CR7

Could you please tweak this template? Thank you. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 01:21, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What's wrong with that? or what do you want I make in that ? Looks good for me Luks25 (talk) 01:29, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't look as good as other templates like Template:RCR. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 02:56, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind. I noticed the second time it does look like other templates. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 02:58, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that template is different from RCR for example because RCR have others Series, personnel, former drivers, crew chiefs informations but CR7M only had Rohrbaugh as a driver, had multiple crew chiefs and the owner is Rohrbaugh family so I don't think that informations are really necessary Luks25 (talk) 03:20, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please add results tables to articles I created?

For example, Darwin Peters Jr., Casey Smith, and Keven Wood. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 03:01, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I have to add results tables for other pages but that articles are easy/fast to add so I can add. Luks25 (talk) 03:20, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Now, I need help on Draft:Jeff Agnew. Apparently, I can't add results tables. How do you do that? NASCARfan0548 ↗ 00:34, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have to thank for everything to Bcschneider53, since he created his NASCAR career results "incubator", as you can see here: User:Bcschneider53/NASCAR Results. So I copy the table that will be needed in driver's page and make the necessary adjustment like team/number/manufacturer informations and the finish results with the correct color that you can see in: Template:NASCAR driver results legend.

Disambiguation link notification for February 22

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2020 NASCAR Racing Experience 300, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Brandon Brown (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Help me!

On the article Ian Henderson (racing driver), I tried to add a results table but instead ruined the whole article. Could you please fix that problem? Thank you. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 02:35, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hey User:NASCARfan0548 you are doing right, you just forgot to close the table with |} in the last line. Also when start a new year, new manufacturer, new team or nem number in the table you should add |- to jump the line and table keep correct...without it everything will be in the same line.

Also since you are starting editing it don't forget the template under the NASCAR/ARCA name in motorsports career results because others series have different colors and different meanings in results table.

Glad I could help! Luks25 (talk) 05:48, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 15:18, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have the same problem on Zachary Bruenger now. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 16:24, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:NASCARfan0548 It looks normal for me now! And you see, is not that difficult to add results table after you learn to edit it. Luks25 (talk) 15:20, 21 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please fix Jerry Reary's table now? NASCARfan0548 ↗ 15:55, 21 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@NASCARfan0548: I took care of this one. I do suggest you take a look at the fixes Luks25 and I have done so that you get the hang of it yourself a bit quicker. Once you do a few of them and learn how it works, it's not too hard at all. --Bcschneider53 (talk) 17:23, 21 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I need help on Chris Lafferty's table now. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 16:46, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lonnie Rush Jr.

Could you please add his results tables? The article has been prodded because there are no references, so could you please fix that? Thank you. NASCARfan0548 ↗ 01:04, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I was working in other pages but I will help since the page is on the line to be deleted. I searched a few sources for it but only found one in the Motorsport. Luks25 (talk) 13:52, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page watcher) Max, how hard is it to add literally one source to your pages? PRODing your own articles and then begging others to do the work for you isn't the most efficient way of doing things, it's you doing the work when creating the page and making sure that it has multiple independent, reliable sources. A simple Google search will turn up sufficient material for at least a paragraph of prose on most of the pages you're creating, yet you create one-sentence stubs and ask everybody else to clean up behind you. If you want to work towards being an admin, a good start would be practicing these things so that you demonstrate an understanding and ability to put into practice a lot of core Wikipedia policies.
