Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Little River Inn, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cobbler. 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.

You are everywhere! I am so appreciative of your help in integrating the articles of the WikiProject Women in Red to Wikipedia and Wikidata. Not only do I not know how to do a lot of what you are doing, I have no skill with the technical parts and really am grateful for your work. SusunW ( talk) 16:22, 10 October 2015 (UTC) |

Hello! Just a reminder, the Film project does not cover biography articles. Therefore, please do not add the {{
WikiProject Film}} banner to articles about actors, directors and filmmakers. Those articles are covered by adding |filmbio-work-group=yes
to {{
WikiProject Biography}} instead. Thanks!

Dear Sara,
I JethroBT (WMF) suggested that I consult with fellow Wikipedians to get feedback and help to improve my idea about "As an unparalleled way to raise awareness of the Wikimedia projects, I propose to create a tremendous media opportunity presented by launching Wikipedia via space travel."
It is a revamped version that I spoke to you about on LinkedIn in 2014.
Please see the idea at
meta
Thank you for your time and attention in this matter. I appreciate it.
My best regards, Geraldshields11 ( talk) 20:33, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Norah Borges.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 ( talk) 22:53, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I made some improvements to the
Little River Inn article that you launched last month. I got the pushpin map to show up in both US and California versions. I also added a Geographic Locator and wikilinked a bunch of nearby cities to it. Can you check and see if I got them in the right order? The ones in the lower right corner are south/east from the inn, while others are north, some are south, some east, and some north/east. I tried to put them in order of their distance from the inn. The geo locator is at the very bottom of the page. Cheers! {{u|

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Deep Impact Taiwan Tour is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

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. Aspects ( talk) 16:04, 26 November 2015 (UTC)

Can you please show me where in naming policy it says that usernames must not be more than 40 characters? I can't find it myself (but then I do often miss things in my old age). A search for "40" at Wikipedia:Username policy finds nothing, and the only relevant thing I can find is "Some usernames appear problematic without fitting clearly into any of the above categories. This is often the case with confusing or extremely lengthy usernames, which are highly discouraged but which are not so inappropriate on their own as to require action" (emphasis in original).

Thanks for uploading File:Columbus Pride Logo 2014.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 03:29, 4 March 2016 (UTC)
