notability edit
because someone is an employee of the Wikimedia Foundation and has published about WP they are "automatically" notable?--Wuerzele (talk) 04:58, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
Some more news coverage edit
Hey folks. I'm the subject of this article. I just wanted to call your attention to some substantial new coverage about one of the projects I am leading. See m:Research:Revision scoring as a service/Media (~100 articles in 11 languages). --EpochFail (talk • contribs) 20:32, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks, I have added a sentence about the AI. Couldn't find a name of the engine itself in the article, though. Everymorning (talk) 21:59, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
- Hey Everymorning. Sorry for the late reply. I purposefully don't watch this page so that I don't get tempted to try patrolling it ^_^. The engine is called m:Objective Revision Evaluation Service (ORES). A few of the articles say the name explicitly -- for example, this wired one does: http://www.wired.com/2015/12/wikipedia-is-using-ai-to-expand-the-ranks-of-human-editors/ --EpochFail (talk • contribs) 21:55, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks. I have added the name of ORES to the article. Everymorning (talk) 22:44, 31 January 2016 (UTC)

Fixed a link edit
I just saved Special:Diff/746822779 to fix a link to my webpage. I have a COI. I'm the subject of the article. If you'd rather I hadn't done this, let me know. --EpochFail (talk • contribs) 19:52, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
Recorded voice edit
I got a request from Pigsonthewing to upload a short recording of my voice to commons. I'm not sure if this belongs in the article, but just in case, I thought I'd link to it here. See File:Aaron Halfaker.voice recording.oga. --EpochFail (talk • contribs) 15:55, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you. I've added it to the article. For background, see WP:WikiVIP. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 16:49, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
This article from The College of St. Scholastica edit
I'm the subject of the article! I have a COI! Take what I say with a grain of salt.
Hey folks. I thought I'd call your attention to this article from my alma mater's comms dept: https://www.css.edu/undergraduate/outcomes/alumni-success-stories/new-frontiers.html It might be useful for sourcing some material related to my time at St. Scholastica. Maybe not. Either way, here it is.

- I added some stuff sourced to this article. Thanks for letting me know. Everymorning (talk) 19:26, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
This article from my old (and kind of current) research lab edit
I'm the subject of the article! I have a COI! Take what I say with a grain of salt.
Hey folks! I thought I'd call your attention to a blog post from my old research lab. It makes some statements about the work I do with them and my official title at the University of Minnesota ("senior scientist"). See https://grouplens.org/blog/friends-with-benefits/ Take from that what you will :) --EpochFail (talk • contribs) 19:43, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
Changes in employment edit
The subject of this article has recently changed jobs and is now at Microsoft. Could an editor look into it and change the page accordingly? Chtnnh (talk) 06:57, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
