Hi! This is my talk page, feel free to drop me a message. To experienced editors: feel free to stalk my talk page and reply to any threads here.To admins: I prefer that my talk page remain unprotected, even if it's being vandalized. Such edits do not particularly bother me and I prefer to remain accessible to anyone who would like to reach me. However, if the volume of vandalism is so high that no other solution would stop disruption, I don't mind if my talk page is semi-protected for a day or two. Hopefully, this is a rare occurrence.

Get ready to submit your candidacy, or (with their consent) to nominate a talented candidate!

[edit]I pinged you there, but I think it’s worth mentioning here because it seems to me that the account in question is doing everything possible to harass me, including wikihounding. They edited a page I had created and, just minutes later, removed a tag I had added to an article. Very strange, especially given the user’s history of wikihounding.

Speedy deletion nomination of Wes Allen (disambiguation)
[edit]
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 Wes Allen (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is:
- a disambiguation page with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" which lists only one extant Wikipedia page (i.e., there is a primary topic);
- a disambiguation page that lists zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
- a redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" whose target is neither a disambiguation page nor page that has a disambiguation-like function.
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:33, 26 July 2025 (UTC)
Question from Porralagos (06:16, 28 July 2025)
[edit]Yo bro I’m sorry uhm is their any articles you need help with that involve Portuguese history or Brazilian history --Porralagos (talk) 06:16, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
Hi! So I've been trying to get into editing on here and I've made some small changes here and there but there's a lot of information and policy to be aware of which can be difficult, and in hindsight I definitely shouldn't have done this because I'm too new and not familiar enough with deletion policy but I submitted an article for deletion and everyone disagreed (for valid reasons, again I did not do enough research and I should not be submitting articles for deletion with as little experience as I have) so I'm just wondering what your advice would be for getting more comfortable on here and how I can better familiarize myself with how things work :) like what did you do when you were a beginner? --Dyljm (talk) 18:12, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
