Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Aubrey Smith (athlete), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Athletics. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Geology of the Yorkshire coast.

Hello OmniFlames. With regard to the deletion of "The geology of the Yorkshire coast", A visit to the Yorkshire coast has recently been undertaken, and the completion of the article is in prospect. Would you please inform me whether the deleted page is still available. Thank you. Halteres. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Halteres (talkcontribs) 18:03, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Nicosia local government units.png

 

A tag has been placed on File:Nicosia local government units.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Stefan2 (talk) 14:42, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

June copy-editing blitz has not started yet

Thanks for your copy-edits, but the June blitz does not start until June 12. You are welcome to edit any articles, of course. They just won't count in the blitz yet. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:07, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Ah, right. My apologies, I didn't realize. Omni Flames let's talk about it 21:53, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

June 2016 Guild of Copy Editors Newsletter

Guild of Copy Editors June 2016 News
 

 

Hello everyone, welcome to the June 2016 GOCE newsletter. It's been a few months since we sent one out; we hope y'all haven't forgotten about the Guild! Your coordinators have been busy behind the scenes as usual, though real life has a habit of reducing our personal wiki-time. The May backlog reduction drive, the usual coordinating tasks and preparations for the June election are keeping us on our toes!

May drive: Thanks to everyone who participated in last month's record-setting backlog reduction drive. Of the 29 people who signed up, 16 copyedited at least one article, 197 copyedits were recorded on the drive page, and the copyedit backlog fell below 1,500 for the first time! Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here.

June Blitz: this one-week copy-editing blitz will occur from 12 June through 18 June; the themes will be video games and Asian geography.

Coordinator elections: It's election time again; how quickly they seem to roll around! Nominations for the next tranche of Guild coordinators, who will serve a six-month term that begins at 00:01 UTC on 1 July and ends at 23:59 UTC on 31 December, opens at 00:01 UTC on 1 June and closes at 23:59 UTC on 15 June. Voting takes place between 00:01 UTC on 16 June and 23:59 UTC on 30 June. If you'd like to assist behind the scenes, please consider stepping forward; self-nominations are welcomed and encouraged. All Wikipedia editors in good standing are eligible; remember it's your Guild, and it doesn't run itself!

Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Jonesey95, Miniapolis and Baffle gab1978.

To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

LGBT IN RIGHTS SINGAPORE

@Flames I won't show any reference because my writings are of good faith. Singapore is a conservative nation.Senthoora poove (talk) 07:43, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

@Senthoora poove: That may be so, but Wikipedia requires that information be verifiable. It doesn't matter if you edit was correct or not, if you want it in the article, you need to back it up with a reliable source. Omni Flames (talk) 07:45, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

@Flames I am not interested editing the article anymore . If you can visit Singapore ,please visit.Senthoora poove (talk) 07:49, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

Flames please think again ..Singapore is conservative... research please.Senthoora poove (talk) 07:50, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

@Senthoora poove: Please read my message above once again. I don't know if Singapore is conservative, and I don't really want to know. If you want to add this information to the article, then you need to add a reference as well. Please see WP:REFB. Thank you, Omni Flames (talk) 07:53, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

@Flames I am not being able to find any reliable source to my writings , I have come to known those things by visiting Singapore in December 2015 .Senthoora poove (talk) 07:57, 9 June 2016 (UTC) @@Flames as I have told you before that I am not interested in editing that article and I am also aware of Wikipedia's rules and regulations... Senthoora poove (talk) 07:58, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

If you aren't interested in editing that article, then that's it, obviously it won't be added. Also, just because you found this out by visiting Singapore yourself, doesn't mean it's verifiable. Please see WP:NOR. Omni Flames (talk) 08:00, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

@Flames thank you but i request you to visit Singapore at least once. See my other edits if you find out any wrong information or against Wikipedia's rules.Senthoora poove (talk) 08:02, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

@Flames If you request me i will permanently leave editing Wikipedia articles.Senthoora poove (talk) 08:07, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

@Senthoora poove: Let me get this straight. I have no desire nor need to visit Singapore. I don't want you to leave, and I'm not saying that any of your edits have been against any of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines. Please, stay, and help contribute to the encyclopedia! We could use more editors like you. You may wish to read Wikipedia:Verifiability, not truth as it's very relevant to this situation. If you have any questions or issues, please don't hesitate to ask me! Thanks and good luck, Omni Flames (talk) 08:11, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

Page mover granted

 

Hello, Omni Flames. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, and move subpages when moving the parent page(s).

Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving redirect. When you move a page, please remember to correct double-redirects, make link corrections where necessary, and follow other relevant post-move cleanup procedures. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.

If you do not want the page mover right anymore, post here, or just let me know. Thank you, and happy editing! Biblio (talk) 23:44, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

Hanny's

Hello, Omni Flames.

You recently rejected my article for creation, Hanny's. I was somewhat confused by this since the chain has reliable references in the Arizona Republic, the largest newspaper in the state of Arizona as well as the largest non-national newspaper published by the Gannett Company. I was more puzzled, however, since the chain's former flagship is referenced in broken links on the pages Lescher and Mahoney and National Register of Historic Places listings in Phoenix, Arizona, since (and perhaps most importantly) the former flagship IS an NRHP-listed site (#85002058). In any case, I have edited and resubmitted the article with a direct link to the former flagship's NRHP listing. Since I was met with swift rejection, I anticipate swift approval given the subject's official recognition of historical significance by the federal government. I was just curious about the specifics of the matter.

Thanks, Hisrtoriarvm Arizonensis

@Hisrtoriarvm Arizonensis: I've had to decline the submission again since you still haven't listed enough reliable sources. Yes, the sources you've got there are good, but there are simply not enough of them for a solid article here. Hopefully that helps. Omni Flames (talk) 21:46, 11 June 2016 (UTC)
@Omni Flames: Alright, that's fine, How many sources do you need? I have no problem searching for additional reliable sources, however this would be much easier if I knew EXACTLY how many I need. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Historiarvm Arizonensis (talkcontribs) 23:36, 11 June 2016 (UTC)
@Historiarvm Arizonensis: There's no specific number of sources you need to show that the subject of the article is notable. You just need enough to prove that the company has been covered by reliable sources enough to warrant it's own encyclopedic article. You may want to see WP:GNG and WP:COMPANY. Omni Flames (talk) 23:41, 11 June 2016 (UTC)
@Omni Flames: Okay, thank you very much. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Historiarvm Arizonensis (talkcontribs) 23:47, 11 June 2016 (UTC)

@Omni Flames: I've just edited Hanny's and added articles from the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and the Tucson Citizen, all of which are accessible online. I figure that these non-biased references from non-local high profile publications reporting on a matter regarding a national company, Hartmarx, with references to Hanny's establishes it as a notable institution. I hope that this meets your standards. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Historiarvm Arizonensis (talkcontribs) 00:18, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
