Hi there. Welcome to Wikipedia and I hope you enjoy your editing. I just wanted to point something out based on your current set of edits, you are adding a lot of links into articles but on many occasions you're adding too many links. We don't link common words in Wikipedia, just because they have an article. We only link to other pages when there is a reason for a user to want to click it to learn more that they don't already know. For example we don't link things like duck, dam, house, water, railway etc. For reference you can check out WP:OVERLINKING for more information. Cheers.

A tag has been placed on True North Inc, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
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 removed 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Please take a moment to review the Wikipedia policies on conflict of interest at WP:COI, promotional posting at WP:PROMO, and paid editing at WP:PAID. JamesG5 ( talk) 00:47, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and allow you to continue working on the True North Inc page. As a result, I have moved the page to User:AmericanAir88/True North Inc so you can continue working on the page out of mainspace. Please do not move it back to mainspace until a third party approves of it, and read Wikipedia:So you made a userspace draft for any assistance related to your draft. You may also leave me a message on my talk page if you have any more questions. Thank you. Sky Warrior 01:02, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
Given various other postings here on your talk page, I have serious misgivings about you closing AfDs. Normally those are closed by administrators, but sometimes they are closed by others (so-called "non-admin closures", "NACs"), but I can't imagine they're ever closed by accounts with less than 500 edits and a month of tenure, especially before the usual seven-day period. It might be best for you to let AfDs run their regular course and let actual admins handle their closures. Imzadi 1979 → 03:21, 29 August 2017 (UTC)

Hi AmericanAir88. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Alex Shih Talk 01:34, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
Hi, just wanted to let you know that I've redirected your article to the season 15 page, as there was an AfD discussion for the page and it was deleted due to no standalone notability. The page you created had the "W" capitalized (whereas the previously deleted article didn't), so I'm presuming you weren't aware of the discussion. No worries and just wanted to make you sure you aware of the relevant discussion there. Cheers, Katniss May the odds be ever in your favor ♥ 02:36, 19 October 2017 (UTC)
Hi. Thankyou for your participation in the challenge series or/and contests. In November The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There will be over $4000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. If this would appeal to you and you think you'd be interested in contributing new articles on women during this month for your region or wherever please sign up in the participants section. The articles done may also count towards the ongoing challenge. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate and raise money to buy books about women for others to use, this is also fine. Help would also be appreciated in drawing up the lists of missing articles. If you think of any missing articles please add them to the sub lists by continent at Missing articles. Thankyou, and if taking part, good luck!♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:56, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Zoomerang at Lake Compounce, 2015.jpeg. 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. Mz7 ( talk) 01:00, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
Hello:
The copy edit that you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article The Shawshank Redemption has been completed.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
I do not have access to the works cited in the Analysis section so have to take it on faith that any sentences used from them have been accurately quoted and marked so, or rewritten in the contributor'(s') own words.
Good luck with the GAN.

Hello, AmericanAir88. On behalf of Web.com, I've drafted an expanded and updated Wikipedia article for review by uninvolved editors. The current Web.com article is in critical need of improvement, as evidenced by the 5 banners and multiple "citation needed" tags. I've worked to address these tags by researching the company's history and drafting an accurate, neutral, and verifiable Wikipedia article, using appropriate sourcing.
So far, no editors have responded to this edit request, so I am reaching out to individual members of WikiProject Companies to ask for help. Might you be willing to review the proposed draft, then replace the current article's markup with the draft's markup appropriately?
Thanks for your consideration. Inkian Jason ( talk) 20:07, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
@ Inkian Jason: Of course. I will do what ever it takes to help you. AmericanAir88 ( talk) 20:19, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
Hi. I noticed that you are involved in Wikipedia TV project. Please take a look at an article about the Canadian show Cold Water Cowboys. It is at AfC process now.

Hi, I noticed your edits on Sunnyside Sugar Plantation and I am guessing you are not familiar with List-defined references. They are not widely used and I'm not a particular fan of them in normal circumstances but they are pretty much the only format that I can use when generating articles from CC-BY sources which use inline citations with a reference list (the Sunnyside article being a generated article). When the generator encounters the [DD] citation in the body text of the CC source, it emits something like <ref name=PREFIX-DD/> and then when it encounters the numbered reference list, it emits them with as list-defined references correspondingly numbered, so the source citations correctly point to the right item in the reference list. It's not ideal but it works. Kerry ( talk) 02:46, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi there! I came across your recent AfC approval of Refuge Recovery Centers and it seemed to fall short of WP:CORP so I nominated it for deletion. Let me know if I missed anything, and feel free to chime in or hit me up if you got any questions. Drewmutt (^ᴥ^) talk 00:10, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi. I authored that article and it was my first. I appreciated your AfC approval. Following Dremutt's deletion nomination, I found two additional citations to address the
WP:CORP issue raised by Drewmutt, and made appropriate edits. As I read the guidelines which you pointed out in the discussion suggest that authors be given time to improve articles before deleting them, I am having a hard time understanding why you were so quick to abandon your "Keep" recommendation. I'd also appreciate any help and advice on appealing the deletion.

@ Vampire Squid: Hi, I totally agree that they should have given more time for authors to improve the article. I abandoned my "keep" statement because I realized that my defense was hopeless. There were already several "delete" statements out there and I knew that my power could not overrun it. I will do what ever it takes to satisfy you. I will help appeal. AmericanAir88 ( talk) 00:16, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
Please take a look at Reid Collins & Tsai. It has been patrolled by a user with the law background but it looks like he is doing it for the first time or wrongly. His contribution currently is highlighted in red as a non-link. Thought that you could take a look at it and possibly give this guy an advice on how to handle such issues. -- Bbarmadillo ( talk) 20:58, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
Salutations,
I saw you were listed on Project Merge, and I thought I'd reach out to you.
I propose that Creamer potato be merged into potato ( discussion).
I listed under Wikipedia:Proposed_mergers#Merge_requests (awaiting consensus).
I don't expect any objections, but as an unregistered user I do not have the rights to to edit potato.
I expect the merge will be simple and if you are available/willing to carry out the merger it would be appreciated.
Cheers!

Saw you are part of the Article Rescue Squadron and wondered if you might be able to offer advice and or help. I'm an inexperienced editor who wrote a few articles in 2014 (I'm a professor and wanted to understand wikipedia better and be able to help my students with it). Two of my articles were created, but one was deleted today (Ty Morse) after a discussion that hinged on whether or not the subject was actually notable, which did not seem to reach consensus. I don't know who to reach out to or if this is even appropriate, but I'm looking for some guidance on what to do now or how to resolve it. Any ideas? Jemima1418 ( talk) 18:33, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

It's not technically a game show like my other GA nominations you've reviewed for me, but I currently have it at FAC. It could use a couple of more reviews.

AA88 - my nomination of Milk allergy for promotion to Good Article has been awaiting a reviewer since December 11. One of the problems is that the experienced editors knowledgeable about the topic (Doc James, Zefr, jtydog) have been contributors to the article in the past. Do you feel up to reviewing another allergy article. This can wait until after you complete your own GA process for French fries. P.S. In between Egg allergy and now I succeeded in bringing Vitamin C to GA status and did a DYK for Egg allergy. David notMD ( talk) 18:58, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
@ David notMD: Sure thing, Anything for you. I am 100% on board. It will be a bit before I get to it but I will start the review. AmericanAir88 ( talk) 00:27, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

...will not be the only person making changes to Milk Allergy. At least two other editors - MDs - appear to have this on their watch list.

@ David notMD: I am proud of the work you are doing to solve the conflict. In order to pass Attribute 5, BB will need to stop removing your table.

Hello, AmericanAir88. I recently posted a message at WikiProject Transport asking for additional feedback about my proposal to add information about Iteris' advanced traveller information system, lane departure warning system, and intelligent transportation system (see here). Unfortunately, no one has responded yet, either on the WikiProject talk page or the article talk page.
You were kind enough to help me with a request for the Web.com article a while back, and given your interest in both companies and transportation, I was wondering if you might be interested in taking a look at this request, too. To be clear, I am proposing updates to the Iteris article on the company's behalf, and I've disclosed my conflict of interest appropriately. If you're interested in taking a look at the proposed draft in its entirety, see here.
The edit request I referenced in the WikiProject Transport message is only related to the first half of the "Traffic and transportation" subsection, but if you're willing to take on more than just these 2 paragraphs, I'm also looking for someone to review the rest of the section, as well as the proposed "Agriculture and weather" and "Reception" sections. In my draft, you'll notice green and red text. Green = content that has been added to the existing Iteris article, while red = text that was rejected by an editor responding to my requests. I don't necessarily agree with the reviewing editor's assessment, but I'm replying on volunteers to implement my proposed changes. I invite you to review the draft and copy markup over to the existing article appropriately. If you are not interested, that's no problem! I will try to find other WikiProject Transport participants who may be willing to help. Thanks for your consideration. Inkian Jason ( talk) 18:16, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
@ Inkian Jason: Of course, I will help out. AmericanAir88 ( talk) 00:25, 9 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello again. I just wanted to let you know that I've placed my updated proposed text for the "Traffic and transportation" section into a fresh edit request to make things clearer and better show how the text has been updated based on feedback so far. Hopefully this will help with your review of the proposed text. Per our discussion here, I also plan to post a note at WikiProject Agriculture to see if any project members want to help out with reviewing the proposed "Agriculture and weather" section. Thanks again! Inkian Jason ( talk) 20:18, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Hello AmericanAir88. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as
patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the
New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia; if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at
New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various
deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at
page reviewer talk.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. TonyBallioni ( talk) 16:45, 17 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi, AmericanAir88.
I've noticed that you are an AfC reviewer but don't yet have the
New Page Reviewer flag. Would you please consider heading over to
PERM and requesting it? (check the flag requirements
HERE)
As part of a larger plan to increase cooperation between New Page Patrol and Articles for creation, we are trying to get as many of the active AfC reviewers as possible under the NPR user flag (
per this discussion). Unlike the AfC request list, the NPR flag carries no obligation to review new articles, so I'm not asking you to help out at New Page Patrol if you don't want to, just to request the flag.
Of course, if it is something you would be interested in, you can have a look at
the NPP tutorial. Please mention that you are an active AfC reviewer in your application.

Just wondering where you got the stat here that only 39 "V" articles remain to be reviewed, according to the guidelines at the top of the relevant sub-page. The semantics of these pages is that any entries with the {{ search}} template and a trailing "-" still remain to be reviewed, and I count 344 of them (I have automated the calculation of all the sub-pages). It's a laborious process, to be sure; I'm almost done with the A's, but I may as well jump to the V's next. 01:35, 18 April 2018 (UTC)

I've just been looking up the history of ladder toss (to check out its vague "this one guy invented it in 1994" claim) before realising there was a good amount of sourced history in the old Ladder Golf article which you redirected without copying any content across. -- Lord Belbury ( talk) 08:16, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi there. Welcome to Wikipedia and I hope you enjoy your editing. I just wanted to point something out based on your current set of edits, you are adding a lot of links into articles but on many occasions you're adding too many links. We don't link common words in Wikipedia, just because they have an article. We only link to other pages when there is a reason for a user to want to click it to learn more that they don't already know. For example we don't link things like duck, dam, house, water, railway etc. For reference you can check out WP:OVERLINKING for more information. Cheers.

A tag has been placed on True North Inc, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
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 removed 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.

Given various other postings here on your talk page, I have serious misgivings about you closing AfDs. Normally those are closed by administrators, but sometimes they are closed by others (so-called "non-admin closures", "NACs"), but I can't imagine they're ever closed by accounts with less than 500 edits and a month of tenure, especially before the usual seven-day period. It might be best for you to let AfDs run their regular course and let actual admins handle their closures. Imzadi 1979 → 03:21, 29 August 2017 (UTC)

Hi AmericanAir88. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Alex Shih Talk 01:34, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
Hi, just wanted to let you know that I've redirected your article to the season 15 page, as there was an AfD discussion for the page and it was deleted due to no standalone notability. The page you created had the "W" capitalized (whereas the previously deleted article didn't), so I'm presuming you weren't aware of the discussion. No worries and just wanted to make you sure you aware of the relevant discussion there. Cheers, Katniss May the odds be ever in your favor ♥ 02:36, 19 October 2017 (UTC)
Hi. Thankyou for your participation in the challenge series or/and contests. In November The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There will be over $4000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. If this would appeal to you and you think you'd be interested in contributing new articles on women during this month for your region or wherever please sign up in the participants section. The articles done may also count towards the ongoing challenge. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate and raise money to buy books about women for others to use, this is also fine. Help would also be appreciated in drawing up the lists of missing articles. If you think of any missing articles please add them to the sub lists by continent at Missing articles. Thankyou, and if taking part, good luck!♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:56, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Zoomerang at Lake Compounce, 2015.jpeg. 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. Mz7 ( talk) 01:00, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello, AmericanAir88. On behalf of Web.com, I've drafted an expanded and updated Wikipedia article for review by uninvolved editors. The current Web.com article is in critical need of improvement, as evidenced by the 5 banners and multiple "citation needed" tags. I've worked to address these tags by researching the company's history and drafting an accurate, neutral, and verifiable Wikipedia article, using appropriate sourcing.
So far, no editors have responded to this edit request, so I am reaching out to individual members of WikiProject Companies to ask for help. Might you be willing to review the proposed draft, then replace the current article's markup with the draft's markup appropriately?
Thanks for your consideration. Inkian Jason ( talk) 20:07, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed your edits on Sunnyside Sugar Plantation and I am guessing you are not familiar with List-defined references. They are not widely used and I'm not a particular fan of them in normal circumstances but they are pretty much the only format that I can use when generating articles from CC-BY sources which use inline citations with a reference list (the Sunnyside article being a generated article). When the generator encounters the [DD] citation in the body text of the CC source, it emits something like <ref name=PREFIX-DD/> and then when it encounters the numbered reference list, it emits them with as list-defined references correspondingly numbered, so the source citations correctly point to the right item in the reference list. It's not ideal but it works. Kerry ( talk) 02:46, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi there! I came across your recent AfC approval of Refuge Recovery Centers and it seemed to fall short of WP:CORP so I nominated it for deletion. Let me know if I missed anything, and feel free to chime in or hit me up if you got any questions. Drewmutt (^ᴥ^) talk 00:10, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi. I authored that article and it was my first. I appreciated your AfC approval. Following Dremutt's deletion nomination, I found two additional citations to address the
WP:CORP issue raised by Drewmutt, and made appropriate edits. As I read the guidelines which you pointed out in the discussion suggest that authors be given time to improve articles before deleting them, I am having a hard time understanding why you were so quick to abandon your "Keep" recommendation. I'd also appreciate any help and advice on appealing the deletion.

Salutations,
I saw you were listed on Project Merge, and I thought I'd reach out to you.
I propose that Creamer potato be merged into potato ( discussion).
I listed under Wikipedia:Proposed_mergers#Merge_requests (awaiting consensus).
I don't expect any objections, but as an unregistered user I do not have the rights to to edit potato.
I expect the merge will be simple and if you are available/willing to carry out the merger it would be appreciated.

Saw you are part of the Article Rescue Squadron and wondered if you might be able to offer advice and or help. I'm an inexperienced editor who wrote a few articles in 2014 (I'm a professor and wanted to understand wikipedia better and be able to help my students with it). Two of my articles were created, but one was deleted today (Ty Morse) after a discussion that hinged on whether or not the subject was actually notable, which did not seem to reach consensus. I don't know who to reach out to or if this is even appropriate, but I'm looking for some guidance on what to do now or how to resolve it. Any ideas? Jemima1418 ( talk) 18:33, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

AA88 - my nomination of Milk allergy for promotion to Good Article has been awaiting a reviewer since December 11. One of the problems is that the experienced editors knowledgeable about the topic (Doc James, Zefr, jtydog) have been contributors to the article in the past. Do you feel up to reviewing another allergy article. This can wait until after you complete your own GA process for French fries. P.S.

Hello, AmericanAir88. I recently posted a message at WikiProject Transport asking for additional feedback about my proposal to add information about Iteris' advanced traveller information system, lane departure warning system, and intelligent transportation system (see here). Unfortunately, no one has responded yet, either on the WikiProject talk page or the article talk page.
You were kind enough to help me with a request for the Web.com article a while back, and given your interest in both companies and transportation, I was wondering if you might be interested in taking a look at this request, too. To be clear, I am proposing updates to the Iteris article on the company's behalf, and I've disclosed my conflict of interest appropriately. If you're interested in taking a look at the proposed draft in its entirety, see here.
The edit request I referenced in the WikiProject Transport message is only related to the first half of the "Traffic and transportation" subsection, but if you're willing to take on more than just these 2 paragraphs, I'm also looking for someone to review the rest of the section, as well as the proposed "Agriculture and weather" and "Reception" sections. In my draft, you'll notice green and red text. Green = content that has been added to the existing Iteris article, while red = text that was rejected by an editor responding to my requests. I don't necessarily agree with the reviewing editor's assessment, but I'm replying on volunteers to implement my proposed changes. I invite you to review the draft and copy markup over to the existing article appropriately. If you are not interested, that's no problem! I will try to find other WikiProject Transport participants who may be willing to help. Thanks for your consideration. Inkian Jason ( talk) 18:16, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello again. I just wanted to let you know that I've placed my updated proposed text for the "Traffic and transportation" section into a fresh edit request to make things clearer and better show how the text has been updated based on feedback so far. Hopefully this will help with your review of the proposed text. Per our discussion here, I also plan to post a note at WikiProject Agriculture to see if any project members want to help out with reviewing the proposed "Agriculture and weather" section.

Hello AmericanAir88. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as
patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the
New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia; if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at
New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various
deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at
page reviewer talk.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. TonyBallioni ( talk) 16:45, 17 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi, AmericanAir88.
I've noticed that you are an AfC reviewer but don't yet have the
New Page Reviewer flag. Would you please consider heading over to
PERM and requesting it? (check the flag requirements
HERE)
As part of a larger plan to increase cooperation between New Page Patrol and Articles for creation, we are trying to get as many of the active AfC reviewers as possible under the NPR user flag (
per this discussion). Unlike the AfC request list, the NPR flag carries no obligation to review new articles, so I'm not asking you to help out at New Page Patrol if you don't want to, just to request the flag.
Of course, if it is something you would be interested in, you can have a look at
the NPP tutorial. Please mention that you are an active AfC reviewer in your application.

The semantics of these pages is that any entries with the {{ search}} template and a trailing "-" still remain to be reviewed, and I count 344 of them (I have automated the calculation of all the sub-pages). It's a laborious process, to be sure; I'm almost done with the A's, but I may as well jump to the V's next. 01:35, 18 April 2018 (UTC)
@ DavidBrooks: My apologies, I made a mistake.
Thank you for your review of Anything Goes (Irish TV series), can you help me with the copy editing tag, it seems to read OK to me, is there some issue in particular you see? Damiantgordon ( talk) 11:58, 18 April 2018 (UTC)
@ Damiantgordon: I will, Thank you AmericanAir88 ( talk) 02:29, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
@ Damiantgordon: Done. AmericanAir88 ( talk) 02:38, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
If you're processing a request to merge two articles, please actually merge them instead of just redirecting one to the other! I've just been looking up the history of ladder toss (to check out its vague "this one guy invented it in 1994" claim) before realising there was a good amount of sourced history in the old Ladder Golf article which you redirected without copying any content across. -- Lord Belbury ( talk) 08:16, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
@ Lord Belbury: Sorry about that. I did it because they were two of the exact same articles. WP:DUP. AmericanAir88 ( talk) 01:06, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
