Your logic in this edit is in error, although it's an understandable error. You say, "American" is not a language, "English" is. And of course, you are correct. But that is not the point. The box indicates what the official language is. And many years ago, the Illinois General Assembly did indeed pass a bill designating American as the official language of our state. Were they linguistically correct to do so? Of course not. But it doesn't matter; if they say the official language of the state is "Muppet", and the governor signs it, then Muppet is the official language, period.
Having said that, I won't be reverting your edit. Why? Because the law designating American as the official language has since been repealed. So you did the right thing, even if you did so in ignorance. My purpose with this post is just to expand your thinking a bit. See you around! HuskyHuskie ( talk) 04:38, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you.
I liked your answer to the newbie attempting (himself) to "bully" Cluebot NG. It needed a soft answer. It also provided a needed laugh! Student7 ( talk) 14:02, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
Please stop adding counties to the Categories:States and territories established in... These are not for counties. There doesn't appear to be any categories for County established in... Don't know if that would be necessary or not. Thank you. -- JoannaSerah ( talk) 21:56, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

See [9] where you reverted to a very bad version. I've taken care of restoring the page to something acceptable. DGG ( talk ) 16:07, 2 May 2012 (UTC) .
Could you explain why, for example, Germany or Belgium or Brazil needs to be discussed, but Norway did not, why two of the three Irelands need to be discussed but but all three UKs don't? I'm just spent the entire day going through those categories preparing those routinely on the basis that oodles of similar others exist, have been accepted no problem, and you've just declined the lot even though there is obvious ample scope for inclusion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.40.106.197 ( talk) 01:09, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
Hey 90. I'm dropping you a note because you used to patrol new pages. This is just to let you know that we've deployed and developed Page Curation, which augments and supersedes Special:NewPages - there are a lot of interesting new features if you want to get back into the swing of patrolling :). There's some help documentation here if you want to familiarise yourself with the system and start using it. If you find any bugs or have requests for new features, let us know here. Thanks!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Research park, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Raison d'etre. 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.

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 |
