Fixing AKC links
editHey, thanks for fixing those AKC links. They rearranged their site a few months back and I started my long, weary way through all the dog breed articles, fixing many of them, but I think I got sidetracked somewhere before the end of the alphabet.

Winogradsky
editThanks for pointing out those two Vinogradskii/Winogradsky articles; I've merged them. May the Wiki be with you--ragesoss 05:14, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
Re:Dead external links
editI'd love to re-generate the external link list, but I can't do that until Wikipedia does another database dump. They haven't done a database dump since December 14th. Don't ask me why. -- Marumari 15:11, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
Dead links
editHello,
Thanks for your attention to external links. However, please do *not* remove links which are cited as sources, such as in population figures. Thanks! -- Visviva 03:43, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
Your welcome!
editYou are quite welcome! I've setup a vandalism monitoring channel on freenode for WikiSpecies (#vandalism-en-species), I'll have it open so I can see when the bot is triggered, in case the vandal returns. In the meantime, I've told Danny I'm all set with sysop, and he has removed my rights per my request. If there is ever anything I can do to help out Wikispecies, let me know! --lightdarkness (talk) 02:29, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
editSuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
|
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 14:28, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
Botanical authors
editThanks for adding botanical author template to Alice Lounsberry. Also needed is the same for Chauncey Beadle and Albert E. Radford, whom I have just added. I would do it, but I don't know the rules or where to find any authoritative list. The abbreviation I have seen for them are Beadle and Radf., I believe. Now should I add these three to List of botanists by author abbreviation? I did add all three to List of botanists.--Cotinis 14:25, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
Broken redirect
editHello. You recently created the article Asa di Vaar, which consists in its entirety of the text "#REDIRECT [[Asa di Vaar]]". (You'd be surprised how often this happens!) I've been unable to identify which article you intended to redirect to. Can you please correct the link? --Russ Blau (talk) 18:20, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Söldner
editHello, you changed the link to Söldner to Söldner: Secret Wars in the article List of Amiga games (P-Z) in this edit in November 2009. If you had bothered to look at the article Söldner: Secret Wars or the game's official website, you would have seen that Söldner: Secret Wars is not an Amiga game.

Hi! I'm serving as the wikipedian-in-residence at the Smithsonian Institution Archives until June! One of my goals as resident, is to work with Wikipedians and staff to improve content on Wikipedia about people who have collections held in the Archives - most of these are scientists who held roles within the Smithsonian and/or federal government. I thought you might like to participate since you are interested in the sciences! Sign up to participate here and dive into articles needing expansion and creation on our to-do list. Feel free to make a request for images or materials at the request page, and of course, if you share your successes at the outcomes page you will receive the SIA barnstar! Thanks for your interest, and I look forward to your participation! Sarah (talk) 02:18, 17 April 2012 (UTC) |
Wikimedia - open source & hiring
editHello! I noticed from your edits and userpage category that you're interested in programming and CS. I thought you might want to know that the Wikimedia open source community welcomes you to get developer access so you can contribute code, critique others' commits, and generally get a better sense of how this place works on a technical level.
Also, the Wikimedia Foundation is hiring programmers, in case you know anyone who's looking. Remote work is often feasible.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. KATMAKROFAN (talk) 15:42, 29 November 2016 (UTC)

editWS is now slowly developing with less conflicts. I guess you have moved away to other things, but would kindly like to ask you to support with vote here, so we can reach the 25-30 votes minimum rule in order to be able to get local Checkusers, and get a local policy for CU, which will be the first step of developing more local solutions on WS.

Speedy deletion nomination of Bon viveur
editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Bon viveur requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either
- disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
- disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
- is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.
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 deleted 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Alexandermcnabb (talk) 07:47, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
The article Yard craft has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
No sources are cited within this article, and this has been tagged since March 2021. It seems that this page has been abandoned. However, if someone finds sources, then please remove this PROD and add them to the article.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
