Please do not invite me to meetups. Although I no longer have social anxiety, these events are much more exhausting for me than most people due to hypermobility/Ehlers-Danlos type 2, please respect this.

I have frequent chronic pain, there will be times I am not active due to it.

I also have severe ADHD, so there's a chance I might see certain things let me know if I missed something important.

I speak some French, and am beginning to use the French Wikipedia so French speakers are welcome here (I am mildly obsessed with the French language so beware)(Also learning Spanish but not enough to use the Spanish Wikipedia).




i just want to say i was reverting a ton of vandalism and i think i accidently did it more then three times in one page does reverting to the last version of a page more then 3times qualify towards the 3rr rule? if so im very sorry ill try to be more careful and im ready to suffer the consequences Saturn star 01:14, 11 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Don't worry. If it was just vandalism, and you reverted it more than 3 times, it's fine. See the exceptions here. Vandalism is one of them. R ParlateContribs@ (Let's Go Yankees!) 01:18, 11 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

You are correct, removal of those tags (if they are legitimate) is against policy. Warn them and if they continue, report to WP:AIV. --ST47Talk 18:14, 12 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Saturn star, thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia! Your other account, User:Shoujo nyah, is still here in Wikipedia. I think you can get the password or a new password if you gave an email address when you made that account. But if you didn't give an email address, I think nobody can use that account anymore:( But you can leave a message on User talk:Shoujo nyah to tell everyone that your new username is Saturn star!

I saw your request for adoption, but I'm not on Wikipedia every day, so I'm not sure I'm the best person to help you. But I have some suggestions. Look at WP:Vandalism. This page has some templates you can use to warn suspected vandals. If you want to warn editors about other problems, take a look at List of warning templates. There are many good standard templates for you to use to get your point across.

Thank you for helping Wikipedia! -- • • • Blue Pixel 03:12, 29 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

As you can now see I have changed the userbox on your user page to acceptance and who has adopted you. The first thing I would like to start with is helping you to improve your userpage and maybe find some WikiProjects that you would like to be in. Xtreme racer 03:32, 1 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

As you can probably tell I have done some more editing on your userpage to help you organize it some more.

Wiki Projects can be anything from the video games project: works on video game article, to Wiki Project Aircraft: Work on flying related articles, and many more. I am sure I can find you a Wiki Project that you would enjoy. If you could leave me a message saying the kind of things you are interested in I'll see if there is a project for it.

After seeing your message I have put the userboxes for WikiProject Ohio, Anime and manga and Harry Potter on your userpage. To officially join WikiProject Ohio though you need to add your name to the list of participants at the main page. If you would want to join other projects usually it just involves visiting the main page of the project and putting the userbox on your userpage. If you have many more questions please leave me a message. Xtreme racer 20:14, 5 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Actually, there is not much point in adding the template as user pages of indef blocked accounts (especially those of very new and vandal accounts) are deleted pretty quickly and adding the template serves no particular purpose. Although it is ok to add a "blocked" template when the blocking admin has forgotten to do so, it is unnecessary for indef blocks. - TwoOars 20:02, 9 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject Harry Potter roll-call

edit


Hi there. Your username is listed on the WikiProject Harry Potter participants list, but we are unsure as to which editors are still active on the project. Your name has therefore been moved to a "potentially inactive" list. If you still consider yourself an active WikiProject Harry Potter editor, please move your name from the Potentially inactive list to the Active Contributors list. You may also wish to add {{User WP Harry Potter}} to your userpage, if you haven't done so already. Conversely, if you do not wish to be considered a member of the WikiProject, leave your name where it is and it will be moved to the Inactive Contributors section. If you wish to make a clean break with the Project you may move your name to the Known to have left section. Many thanks.

Answer to Question

edit

You don't have to make major contributions to be part of the WikiProject. Even if you go through articles in the project for now and check for spelling or grammar problems while you gain more editing experience. Once you gain more experience you could help improve sections of articles that are poorly written or find sections that should be deleted. Xtreme racer 11:31, 24 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

As to how to start at WikiProject I am not sure but I would suggest your leave a proposal for the WikiProjects you wish to start here and other Wikipedia users will express their feelings about having such a project or if want you want to be a Wiki-Project is better suited to being a task force of another WikiProject.

Your reversion to the ACLU article

edit

With regard to this difference, yes, I'd say you did the right thing. The ACLU would oppose any organized prayers from any religion; it's just that it's usually Christians who are trying to organize these things.

Speedy Tagging

edit

Hey there! This is a just a note to remind you that we have lots of speedy categories to help sort stuff. While it doesn't technically matter (in terms of getting it deleted for a random reason) which WP:CSD category you put it, it requires a lot more effort for our overworked admins to choose the correct reason themselves, than it does for them to simply use the template. This is in reference to Taylor corum (now deleted) which you tagged as patent nonsense - it was, in fact, about a non-notable person.

Keep in mind that if an admin does just use your template (which they might if they're in a hurry), and it isn't right, this can confuse the user who created it, especially if it was created in good faith. Great work though - we can never have too many new page watchers! Thanks, Ale_Jrbtalk 20:43, 16 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Your CSD tagging

edit

It is considered a courtesy to notify the creator of an article that you've tagged their article for speedy deletion. This gives them the opportunity to respond and potentially develop the article into one that meets Wikipedia policies. This notification message can be delivered to the creator's talk page automatically if you use TWINKLE or by posting the correct template from Category:CSD warning templates. Thank you and keep up the good work, --Patar knight - chat/contributions 18:50, 10 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

edit

Just a note - you don't have to create pages like User:Rosariox18 with the indefblocked template. The real reason for the template is so that the page will get eventually deleted - this is about less pages, not more. The note on the talk page was sufficient. If the user has already created a userpage, then you should replace the content with that template. Just FYI, no action necessary. Tan | 39 01:22, 4 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yep, you use that template if they already have a userpage and they are then indefblocked. You can post any further comments here (and, for the record, you commented on my userpage - comments should go on talk pages, such as this one). Tan | 39 01:27, 4 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. When you patrol new pages, all articles that you have looked at should be marked patrolled, whether you marked them for deletion or deemed them acceptable, unless you are not sure.

Banned <> Blocked

edit

I noticed you've put banned messages on several user pages such as [1] and here [2]. These users have been blocked indefinitely which is not the same thing as a ban. From Wikipedia:Banning policy: "Banning should not be confused with blocking, which is a technical mechanism used to prevent an account or IP address from editing Wikipedia. While blocks are one mechanism used to enforce bans, they are most often used to deal with vandalism and violations of the three-revert rule. As a social construct that is not enforced by the MediaWiki software, a ban does not, in itself, disable a user's ability to edit any page. However, users who violate a ban may have their account access blocked entirely, as a way of enforcing the ban.". You may want to change the messages. --NeilN talkcontribs 01:46, 4 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

I have declined your "vandalism" speedy deletion for this page - it seems to me perfectly acceptable for a user page, and I think to tag it as vandalism only one minute after creation by a new user was a serious biting of a newbie.

Hi there!

edit

I noticed that your userpage had formatting errors which broke a couple userboxes; I've taken the liberty of fixing that for you. I hope you don't mind.

Anyway, I saw that your adopter retired back in 2009; if there's still anything you'd like to learn, I'm an experienced Wikipedian with over 12,000 edits over the course of 30 months, and I've adopted a lot of users in my time here. Even if you don't want to be re-adopted, you're always free to contact me if you ever need any help.

One last thing: have you ever heard of rollback privileges? Rollback allows you to revert vandalism much, much faster than the "undo" button and, seeing as you've reverted quite a bit of vandalism in your time here, would probably be useful to you.

I look forward to your reply. Cheers, and happy editing! Dylan620 (tc) 05:06, 26 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

I'm sorry, but the offer was nearly 7 months ago; now I have a very large amount of schoolwork/homework, meaning that I'm not active enough to support adoption. :( --Dylan620 (I'm all ears) 19:00, 18 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Edit warring

edit
Stop icon 

Your recent editing history at United Kingdom withdrawal from the European Union shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.. Take it to talk.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:59, 23 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi Saturn star,

I'm Kevin, one of the founding members of the Ohio Wikimedians User Group. Created in July 2016, we're working to be a central group of Ohio Wikimedians who organize and support offline events, promote the Wikimedia movement in Ohio, build connections throughout our state, and above all, support each other. We already have a handful of members and have worked to support multiple events, including Wiki Loves Monuments in the United States and several Art+Feminism edit-a-thons at universities throughout Ohio.

I wanted to reach out to you and invite you to join the Ohio Wikimedians User Group. Being a part of the user group will allow easy communication between active Ohio editors, notifications of upcoming events in the Ohio area, and, if you're interested, the opportunity to help organize events such as edit-a-thons or workshops. Some notes:

  • All members receive a monthly newsletter with recent happenings, upcoming events, and more. Check out our April newsletter here.
  • This Thursday at 8:30 EST, we're having our first online meeting. Check out our meeting page here for more details, an agenda, and a section to sign up if you'd like to join us. Topics will include introductions and brainstorming for future projects.

Right now we have a Wikipedia Takes Columbus photo event going on, a Wiknic coming up this summer, and opportunities to attend the upcoming Ohio Private Academic Libraries Conference. If you're interested in joining us, feel free to add your name here - and feel free to reach out to me (or post on the user group's talk page) with questions or discussions.

2019 US Banknote Contest

edit
  US Banknote Contest  
November-December 2019

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.


If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here

Welcoming new users

edit

While I appreciate the impulse to welcome new users who have not made any edits, the practice is generally discouraged for a number of reasons; even the welcoming committee discourages welcoming editors until they have edited. With Paige Poturalski, for example, you've given them a welcome template that 1) thanks them for their edits and 2) links to a page that contains zero edits. In addition, if you check the filter log, you can see that this editor has made repeated attempts to vandalise that has been caught by the abuse filter. If welcoming editors upon account creation was desirable, we would have a bot do it, but there has never been community consensus to do so. -- Ponyobons mots 23:26, 31 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

So you say that my edit was not neutral, which makes no sense. Taxation is indeed theft, as it forcibly deprives a person of their private property and imprisonment or more theft is typically used as means of punishing those who "evade taxation" (i. e., refuse to be robbed from).

WIkiProject Doctor Who Newsletter: July 2024

edit
The Space-Time Telegraph
Volume II, Issue I — July 2024
Brought to you by the editors of WikiProject Doctor Who

Okay–ooh. New teeth newsletter. That's weird...

Hello!

Welcome to the first regenerated issue of The Space-Time Telegraph, the official newsletter of WikiProject Doctor Who. We hope it finds you well in your safe travels across the Whoniverse! This newsletter was founded in 2008 and seemed to get lost in the time vortex quite quickly. Thanks to the Doctor dragging Sutekh through the time vortex and bringing life by bringing death to death (yeah... I'm a little confused too), it seems to have regenerated. The writing staff hopes to bring you future editions quarterly.
For this first edition, we have created an updated version of our mailing list that includes any active editors who previously had their usernames included in our participants list. If you do not wish to receive future editions, please remove your name from the mailing list. If you no longer wish to participate in the project, please also remove your name from the participants list.
I think that's enough about the newsletter for now. Let's dive into interesting things happening within the Doctor Who side of Wikipedia. Geronimooooo.....

Big Spike in Productivity

During 2024, the project has scored 8 GAs, 2 FLs and a GT, up from last year's 4 GAs and a GT. Several additional things are in the pipeline, with a bunch of things currently having been nominated with some mix of OlifanofmrTennant, TheDoctorWho, and Pokelego999 having their names attached to them. Allow me to look into the nominees.
  1. Series 14: As of July 18th, every single episode has been sent to GAN, with "Boom", "73 Yards", and "The Devil's Chord" having made it to GA.
  2. 2023 Specials: Early in the year, as part of trying to not lose the WikiCup, Ollie sent "The Star Beast" (still salty about the move) to GAN. It was reviewed by frequent collaborator (fly high) of hers, but failed. She then fixed it up and sent it back where it passed. Later "The Giggle" was expanded and sent to GA, followed shortly by "Wild Blue Yonder". WBY received help by JustAnotherCompanion, a pretty fresh user. This other companion chose not to be listed as co-nom. A page was created for "Destination: Skaro" and quickly got GA status.
  3. The Daleks' Master Plan was also sent to GAN by Rhain. It passed to join Rhain's other First Doctor content, being the fourth season three article to get the green check.
  4. Peter Capaldi: The filmography and newly created awards of Capaldi were both sent to FLC and passed. Capaldi's main page was sent to GA, though due to some minor incompetence on the part of the nominator it was failed.

Proposals to the WikiProject

A recent proposal at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Doctor Who suggested potential improvements and suggestions for the main page of the project, as well as discussions about the project overall. The proposals are as follows:
  1. The Task Forces section should be removed due to inactivity in the Torchwood Task Force, and a lack of significant interest in creating further Task Forces.
  2. The freenode channel no longer works and should be removed due to most discussion taking place on site.
  3. Due to the low quality of Lungbarrow and Jubilee despite being sample articles, these articles should either be removed as samples or improved. Additionally, the "sample device" has a very small application field, and should be removed from the sample articles section.
  4. An updates infobox should be included, similarly to those used by Wikipedia:VGCHAR.
  5. Radio Times's Doctor Who sections should be included in the references section due to their benefits for the project sourcing wise.
  6. The Deletion Discussion archive should be removed, or have work invested in updating it, due to its lack of updates.

If you feel you have any thoughts or suggestions on these matters, or on any other matters pertaining to the project and its main page, feel free to chime in the ongoing discussion.

Discussions of Note

A move discussion is currently underway on whether or not Doctor Who series 14 should be moved to Doctor Who season 1 (2024). The discussion also involves conversation on a few other adjacent articles. If you have an opinion on the matter please read over the discussion or leave comments.

WIkiProject Doctor Who: September 2024 Newsletter

edit
The Space-Time Telegraph
Volume II, Issue II — September 2024
Brought to you by the editors of WikiProject Doctor Who

You like Doctor Who? What's his name then?

Welcome

Hello and welcome to the second issue of the new newsletter! Following the success of the first newsletter we are back to write more stuff.

Articles for deletion
Several articles have been nominated for deletion, such as Time War (Doctor Who), and several articles have been deleted, or merged or redirected, especially those relating to books, due to lack of WP:SIGCOV and WP:NBOOK. Editors can always help either by participating in the deletion discussions (which are noted on the project page), adding to such articles, or bringing attention to other such articles through AfD or the WikiProject talk page, to aid in clean-up.

Notice of Draft Articles
A new Doctor Who spin-off was announced at the 2024 San Diego Comic-Con, called The War Between the Land and the Sea, and will feature old and new Whoniverse characters working for UNIT as they battle the Sea Devils. The main space article currently redirects to Whoniverse, but collaboration is currently underway in a draft article. As filming on this miniseries has recently begun, its relocation to the mains space will presumably take place soon per the recommendations laid out at WP:NTV.


There is also a draft article in progress for the upcoming 2024 Christmas special. While this article won't be moved until the episode airs, any new contributions are welcome.

Doctor Who News
A small number of editors have recently raised questions regarding the reliability of Doctor Who News. This website is particularly used for information regarding viewing figures and the Appreciation Index of most episodes as well as some news information. If there is a better source for any information supported by this website, it should be replaced in good faith.


A full consensus on whether or not to remove the information that can't be supported by a different source has not yet been reached. Any editor who has opinions on this matter should contribute to the discussion on the WikiProject talk page.

Continued Progress Towards Good/Featured Content
There has been lots of progress made towards recognized articles in the last two months, related to such diverse categories as series, specials, lists and episodes A sub-page has also been added to the WikiProject, to list any possible goals we can aim towards.

Proposals Regarding the State of Fictional Elements Articles in the WikiProject

Several proposals have been laid out regarding fictional elements in the WikiProject, which includes fictional characters, locations, and more. Due to a concerning quality state regarding the large majority of them, several methods of tackling them in order to improve these articles' quality for the future have been proposed. The primary three proposals are as follows:
1. A priority list should be made to determine what articles are most pressing and in need of improvement in the WikiProject overall. Focus would be put onto important subjects and articles in a state of dubious notability that would make them viable for deletion processes such as AfD.
2. A group of articles is selected for improvement, which are ones deemed most relevant to the WikiProject for the future. Any lesser important subjects can be sidelined and worked on as editors see fit.
3. A long term goal is made to improve all elements. This will come at the caveat of taking significantly longer and requiring more heavy participation than the above two proposals, but would guarantee a slow and steady way to solve the issue.
If any editors are interested in chiming into the conversation and sharing their piece on how this should be handled, or if any editors wish to help with this proposal and improve fictional elements articles, then feel free to share thoughts at the discussion's section on the article's talk page.
