Hi all! I'm an intern with the National Library of Scotland. My internship will mostly be covering how to use and edit Wikipedia and so I'm really looking forward to becoming a part of the community. Brxdxe ( talk) 11:39, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

Christine Beeton moved to draftspace
An article you recently created,
Christine Beeton, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from
reliable,
independent sources. (
?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (
verifiability is of
central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to
draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's
general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited National Library of Scotland, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages German and Italian. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot ( talk) 06:28, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
Nomination of Jean-Pierre Barou for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Jean-Pierre Barou is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jean-Pierre Barou until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Modussiccandi ( talk) 23:01, 17 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi, I just wanted to leave you a quick note with regards to the deletion discussion for Jean-Pierre Barou. Seeing that you're new to Wikipedia, let me say that I didn't nominate the page for deletion because I wanted to disparage your work on the article. The article is much better already than most WP:Stubs. I've merely had (and still have) doubts that the subject really qualifies for inclusion in Wikipedia in accordance with our guidelines. These discussions are there to determine what the consensus among editors is, which is why everybody, including you, is welcome to weigh in as long as they base their views on the guidelines. Regardless of how the discussion ends, your work is very much welcome on Wikipedia and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have about this or any other topic. Best, Modussiccandi ( talk) 10:49, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
- Hi, Modussiccandi. Thanks for this! I know it isn't malicious or anything, don't worry :) Its perfectly fair for people to weigh in on things like this, and it makes the articles better in the long run anyway. Cheers, Brxdxe ( talk) 10:55, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
Your submission at Articles for creation: Spring (novel) has been accepted
Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.
The article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. Most new articles start out as Stub-Class or Start-Class and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

Thanks again, and happy editing!

Your draft article, Draft:Carolin van Bergen
Hello, Brxdxe. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Carolin van Bergen".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia
mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
