Hello, I'm Titodutta. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Next (group) because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Tito Dutta (talk) 11:31, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
Hello, Qazwiz, I have struck the note, but, please note, we generally use Template:Hatnote or Template:Distinguish and it is generally added at the top of the page, not after the lead as you did here. Anyway, I have added a Hatnote in article, see here Next (group), feel free to edit that Hatnote! And shouldn't we add a similar hatnote in N.EX.T too? --Tito Dutta (talk) 03:31, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

We generally use Template:Hatnote and disambiguation pages. Frankly speaking, writing "See also/Please read/For more information/Read more" in between the article are discouraged. About disambig page, please see this article Next. You can add the disambig link too in the hatnote where you have all articles with Similar title! --Tito Dutta (talk) 14:53, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Hey Qazwiz-- I wanted to personally let you know that we're moving this event to a Saturday date in April. Between April 4th and 25th, does either date work well for you? Thanks, I, JethroBT ^{drop me a line} 18:11, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

July 2015

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Charleston church shooting, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 23:38, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

thanks for your informitive answer...

unfortunately I've had no luck finding any other instance of this being played.

reminder, it was a sort of Big Brother group, using just members of the singing group playing mini-puzzle games and a social game that I called "Prohibition"

using what the participants knew of their fellow singers, each wrote an action or phrase that another was punished if performed. ... i believe the result goal donated money to a charity ...

perhaps a larger scope is needed? maybe a catagory "Social Games" ? in which "Prohibition" can be used as a type of game? I cannot believe it's insignificant but for the life of me not sure how to catagorize to fit other discussions of games.

Thanks again... :D Qazwiz (talk) 21:09, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Prohibition (Game)

When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
