Dormant worm awakes; a sketchy archiving site struck; ether burns.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your recent edits to Lac J'En-Peux-Plus when you modified the page, you introduced unknown parameters. Just because you specify |some_param=some_variable does not always mean that variable will display. The |some_param= must be defined in the template. You can look at the documentation for the template you are using but it is also helpful to use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and ensure that the values you have added are displaying correctly. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it. It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. Note I have likely fixed the error by now so check the history of the page to see how it was fixed. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance.
Thank you. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 03:14, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
Lac J'En-Peux-Plus moved to draftspace
Thanks for your contributions to Lac J'En-Peux-Plus. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because it has no indication of notability of the subject, it appears to consists of machine-generated text and it has too many errors of formatting. I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 03:16, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
- I translated directly the article from the French — I didn't realize I had to demonstrate addt'l notability for English wikipedia. I'll see if I can find more sources. SiliconRed (he/him • talk) 03:26, 29 April 2026 (UTC) SiliconRed (he/him • talk) 03:26, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
