User talk:BuddyBoy600alt

Welcome to Miraheze
Hello, BuddyBoy600alt, and welcome to Miraheze! Miraheze is a free, non-for-profit wiki hosting service. If you would like to start a wiki please fill in this form or, if you'd like to contribute to an existing wiki, please see a few wikis here or the full list of wikis here. Note that (private) wikis aren't accessible unless you are given access, and closed wikis cannot be edited.

For more information, please see our FAQ. If you have any additional questions, concerns, or comments, please feel free to contact us.

You are encouraged to create your user page, whether here on Meta (visible only when on Meta), or your global user page that visible on any Miraheze wiki where a user does not have a local user page and provided that the wiki has the GlobalUserPage extension enabled and, additionally, where the wiki is not using the SocialProfile extension. Should you decide to create your global user page on Loginwiki and wish for it to replace your Meta user page, simply add the delete template to the top of your Meta user page by copying and pasting this code, and an administrator should delete it promptly (usually within 24 hours).

If you have any questions, after first reviewing FAQ and the help center, please don't hesitate to ask at the community noticeboard, but please be sure to end all new topics or replies you make on talk pages, user talk pages (like this one), and noticeboards with four tildes to include both (a) a username and (b) a properly formatted timestamp for our talk page archiving bot.

Thanks,

Requesting too many wikis, creating duplicate requests, and a note regarding user accounts policy
Hi BuddyBoy600alt,

Having noticed that you have had three wiki requests approved today and a further two wiki requests declined today, noting that you've only made four edits on one of them, I thought it would be both helpful and appropriate to advise you that requesting too many wikis, regardless of whether they are  approved or not, may be seen as spamming the wiki request queue. Even if they are approved, creating wikis that you end up abandoning is also problematic, as your wiki then occupies an existing subdomain for the duration of Dormancy Policy, which prevents other users from creating a wiki on what might otherwise be a wanted subdomain. This is a minor point, really, since there are other measures, including adoption requests and local elections, that can be workarounds for such scenarios. The more significant issue is that you should be here to create and develop wikis, not merely collecting a series of local hats. Of course, I assume good faith, and assume this isn't the case, but if it continues, I and others will have cause to believe that it may be the case. You are instead encouraged to join us on Discord with specific questions on developing your wiki(s).

Separately, I noticed with this wiki request, you simply created a duplicate request, instead of going back into the original wiki request you submitted, and editing it to address the concerns raised. Different wiki creators handle the same requests, and we need to be able to see the full history related to said request. Given the passage of time between wiki requests, I'm less concerned with this in this case (though felt you should still be advised of this for the future), and more concerned with your requesting this request so soon after your this request required additional information requested by another wiki creator. Additionally, Disney owns The Muppets, so it would be better for you to just request one wiki related to the topic.

Finally, noting your username is BuddyBoy600alt, I thought it important to remind you of user accounts policy, a global policy or community-adopted global standard to which all Mirahezians are expected to adhere. While you don't have to disclose all user accounts you have, you are strongly encouraged to do so. Typically, this is done on your user page, or your global user page on Loginwiki. Whether you disclose any alternate account(s) on Miraheze that you may or may not have, you must respect any local sanctions, blocks, or other restrictions applied to one account as if they applied to your alternate account(s) otherwise you may find yourself afoul of said policy.

Thanks again for your attention to these important notes.

Cheers,
