The welcome may be belated, but the cookies are still warm!
Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Tetrahedron17. 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 still benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
HiTetrahedron17! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Be our guest at the Teahouse! The Teahouse is a friendly space where new editors can ask questions about contributing to Wikipedia and get help from experienced editors like Gestrid (talk).
Thanks for identifying the source of the material in your edit.
This type of edit does get picked up by Copy Patrol and a good edit summary helps to make sure we don't accidentally revert it. However, for future use, would you note the best practices wording as outlined at Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia? In particular, adding a link to the source page and the phrase "see that page's history for attribution" helps ensure that proper attribution is preserved.S Philbrick(Talk)12:26, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I had to delete the same content in the source article as it wasn't relevant. Do I need to additionally write something specific in the edit summary for such cases? Tetrahedron17 (talk) 12:37, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Obscure piece of WP-lore coming you're way: This [1] doesn't work. For whatever reason, a successful ping must have that template and a WP:SIGNin the same published edit, or else it doesn't "go through". Can be read about at WP:PINGFIX. I said it was obscure.

I would rather have blocked the character who keeps adding the unreferenced text dump, but it looks like they have access to several IPs. I've semiprotected the article for 2 weeks. Bishonen | tålk19:28, 6 May 2020 (UTC).[reply]
Hello, Tetrahedron17. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Ritviz".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
