Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Template:User Neuschwanstein Castle, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:36, 8 March 2025 (UTC)

@Jonesey95 Yes, I had also asked Hey man im josh to delete the pages. I had made those mistakes while trying to do UBX migration. I'm sorry for that Xiphoid Vigour ||⚔|⚔|| 17:43, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
A userbox template that follows the naming rules, like {{User Neuschwanstein Castle}}, does not need to be migrated. What were you trying to do? – Jonesey95 (talk) 21:19, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
But, the migrations that I've seen transfer the non-babel boxes which are in template namespace to the userspace of either User:UBX or the personal namespace like at {{User Against userbox migration}} Xiphoid Vigour ||⚔|⚔|| 06:02, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
@Jonesey95 I'm sorry if have mistaken the migration. I'll try to be careful. Xiphoid Vigour ||⚔|⚔|| 06:04, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Userbox migration is an ancient page that should be disregarded. Wikipedia:Userboxes has the current guideline. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:56, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
Thanks for making me aware. Xiphoid Vigour ||⚔|⚔|| 16:11, 9 March 2025 (UTC)

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Mātṛviṣṇu, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. – Garuda Talk! 12:39, 12 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi, Garudam! Well I had moved it as the commonly used spellings don't use IAST. For example article name is Punjab not puñjāba. Only some articles which are of very low importance and historians use it more than others use IAST as name. Well, I don't think so that it's very unfamiliar to the common people. Feel free to revert if you think it should be the other way. Just remember to leave a redirect. :-) Regards, Xiphoid Vigour ||⚔|⚔|| 15:04, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
@Xiphoid Vigour, exception lies; see WP:FELU. Since the sources readily use IAST spellings, so WP:AT would defacto follows them. – Garuda Talk! 15:08, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
@Xiphoid Vigour and please don't quickclose the GA nominations with vague rationales, please familiarise yourself with GA reviewing. Best, – Garuda Talk! 15:11, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
@Garudam The article is actually short and needs some more improving. I am familiar with the criteria. I can also help improve the article. Also see the tags. Xiphoid Vigour ||⚔|⚔|| 15:15, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
Oh I see it can be short too Xiphoid Vigour ||⚔|⚔|| 15:16, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
But that's not a valid argument to fail the review, many short articles can pass GAN if it's well written and mainly spun around its own core topic without going here and there, see for example: Adur-Anahid. I'll fix the tag issues when I get to be free, in the meantime please feel free to improve it. – Garuda Talk! 15:59, 12 March 2025 (UTC)

Signature

Hi, Xiphoid Vigour. Your signature has two template calls in it, and exceeds 256 characters in length, all of which violate WP:SIG. Please bring it into compliance at your soonest convenience. Thanks. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe|🤷) 19:35, 17 March 2025 (UTC)

@Tamzin Thanks for notifying me. I didn't know that my signature can't have templates and it was too long. I'm going to fix it.Xiphoid Vigour (talk · contribs) 05:57:27, 18 March 2025 (UTC) 

Reviewer rights

I'd need more information before I would do such a thing — could you show me the specific edit that you're talking about? Also, if your account's been compromised but you haven't lost access to it completely, then all you really have to do is change your password to lock out the vandal, so we wouldn't normally remove user rights on a temporary basis just because of such a thing — we would usually only do that if your access to the account had been completely lost, so that the vandal had permanent control of it now. So just update your password and it should all be fine. Bearcat (talk) 16:54, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

Apologies @Bearcat, I've already removed the rights and following up with an investigation into the account. Seddon talk 17:01, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
