Hi, Anna (and talk page stalkers). Fountain Posters has been busy uploading new versions of images to Commons that are commonly used on Wikipedia. [1] [2] Most of his new uploads claim he is adjusting levels, white balance, and curves, but as far as I can tell on my monitor, these new images are not an improvement but are instead, "washing" out the colors and making them all but unusable. Recent uploads that have me questioning this practice are here, [3], [4], [5], but there are so many, I wonder if he should be asked to stop doing this and if his uploads should be reverted. For example, is the brightness enhancement of this image an improvement? I really can't see how. Can someone weigh in here? I'm asking here because the community on Commons is impossible to deal with in any capacity, and the majority of these "enhancements" concern highly trafficked pages on Wikipedia.

Hi Anna i have added information on the Corner Hotel in Richmond and the information i have added is correct. I was the owner of the venue when Mick Jagger and Pink Floyd played there and the information on the page is not 100% correct. I have tried to correct it and fill in the missing years and i hope i have done it within your guidelines as to me this is most important to it be accurate. The Corner Hotel has just been listed as the 14th best venue in the world and it is sad that the years that started that proud story are lost. with thanks Wayne Gale — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.168.68.207 ( talk) 07:42, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

Having looked at some of your recent interactions with blocked users, I have to say it's a pleasure to have such a kindly and thoughtful person on the admin team. You're an example to us all. Yunshui 雲 水 14:02, 28 July 2014 (UTC) |
Thank you, Anna you seem nice, but we don't know why you thought we would want to write an article on bugs.
We wrote a specific article on
Scott L. Fredricks Studios
& a person named "KWw" deleted it, & was very rude to us.
We do not have any other purpose, but to write the article that we tried to.
If you can find where it was deleted, to,
we would appreciate it, & you can help us with that one.
Also, on another topic, we don't know how to put that long Rectangular Box in our article - the one that goes on the Right Hand side, of the Page , showing a Logo of a Company , its President , Address , URL etc.
We tried to look at the Templates but all they showed us was blank Pages.
So if you can find our writing on Scott L. Fredricks Studios , we can use your assistance, & if you can explain how to put that Rectangular Box on the Right Hand Side , we could also use your assistance. — Preceding

Thank you for pointing out that the article Rio Santiago poison frog exists as well as Excidobates captivus which I have started expanding. In sources, I have found the latter called "Santiago poison frog" but not "Rio Santiago poison frog". There has also been a change in the scientific name from Dendrobates captivus to Excidobates captivus. I propose doing a bit more expansion then merging the two existing articles and making suitable redirects. Cwmhiraeth ( talk) 05:02, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi Anna, & thanks, for being nice.
No - no bugs. We're not in the bug business.
The letters with the dots, for us, stand for something, & it starts with "I.A. ..." ... "the International Association of" ... .
We're in the Entertainment & Studio area. You asked us, if we only wanted to write about "Our" Organization.
Scott L. Fredricks Studios is NOT our organization . We're NOT associated with them, but we were writing about them - it's our job.
And your friend "Kww" is close to looking at a law suit possibly by them, & definitely by us !
We don't know if he actually works for Wikipedia , but Wikipedia may be getting sued by them ( Scott L. Fredricks Studios ) , & by us, because of the way he's acting.
So we've already said this, many times - we're NOT here to write on bugs, or anything else, except what our Reporters & Writers were doing, writing the Article that they did ( & in the way they did it ).
We need our copy of what we wrote, back, for our records, & for our own separate purposes.
We also need to know, how to put that Long Rectangular Box on the Right hand Side , there - the one that shows a Company Logo , Name of the Pres & CEO , Addresses , URL , etc. . — Preceding

Hi. Would you have a look at User:Pknife2014. Their talk page is clearly advertising and makes clear that their username abbreviates their company name.

Hi Anna,
Thanks for reviewing the article and your advises to improve the content within wikipedia format. I will make sure to follow them.

Considering boldly omitting the Vegetarian/non-vegetarian section in the table of List of Bangladeshi dishes. It's been empty from the article's inception, and several of the dishes can be prepared as both vegetarian and non-vegetarian. I think the article will have a cleaner layout in this manner.

Thanks for uploading File:K.L. Polytechnic, Roorkee logo.jpg. 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. Stefan2 ( talk) 12:39, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
I've blocked Ifalotaibi for a week for vandalizing your user page, but I thought I should follow up, given the mention at AIV about the possibility its a compromised account.

Hello Anna
I don't know if you still remember me. You reviewed my new Wikipedia webpage for the Asian productivity organization before and pointed out some copy right issues both in content and APO's logo picture.
Fortunately, Japanese and Korean Wikipedia pages were approved, so I would like to ask for some help to upload APO's logo.
Of course, the APO approved using the logo for Wikipedia pages for any languages.
I'll look forward to hearing from you!

Hi Anna,
I am sorry that the link i added to Yorkshire water was removed, as you can see from my account it was my 1st edit. so i am still learning the rules of Wikipedia....
I do need to pick your brains tho, if i wanted to add a page about a different business i assume that i just add a page then fill it with information and make sure that i write it as a 3rd party (as in not do it as self promotion?)
and include any relevant links to the official website, published information etc etc..... am i making sense? or just talking jibberish?
I look forward to your reply and fingers crossed getting my 1st page published with Wikipedia

Anna,
I appreciate your input on my submission for a Zyntony page in Wikipedia. We are a new corporation and have had several people ask what Zyntony is. It certainly is an unusual name which we have trademarked. Since most corporations have a Wikipedia page, we followed their outline in presenting factual information about the company rather than promotional information. I would appreciate your guidance in structuring the content to what is appropriate.

I've cleaned up enough "List of..." articles that some meta-level good ideas and best practices have become evident to me. Is there some WP or MOS article where such wisdom is collected? I've done some searching, but have only come up with a technical article on the syntax of lists. If a good article on the subject exists, I'd like to read it for further enlightenment, and to have a place to direct new editors to for guidance. If it doesn't exist yet, perhaps I and other interested editors could write one. I see the same mistakes being made, fixed (sometimes), and discussed repeatedly on the Talk pages of various "List of..." articles, and would like to see the wasted editorial energy redirected to better purposes. Or has somebody already tried to do this and given up? You've been around for a while, and have taken an interest in various "List of..." articles; I'm interested in your experience with this.

It was nice of you to unblock this user (too nice?
CIR,
IDIDNTHEARTHAT and
NOTHERE are looking more and more applicable), but in future cases like this, it would be more sensible to have the user file a
CHU request rather than getting them to register a new account. There's now no clear direct connection back from
Absolute Healing to
Sri Rupaji Anant Charitable Trust, despite them being the same user. As a rule, unless they're under a {{
softerblock}}
, they need to get their account unblocked and change the name rather than creating a new account, since doing so is technically
block evasion.

As the community grows and our members and non-members make reference to how DTVKit has helped them this will increase the references/sources.

Please look at Talk:Tram#Unhelpful infobox. This little discussion started when User:Fremantle99 added a singularly unhelpful infobox and photo to Tram. IP editor User:120.21.128.215 eventually noticed it and removed it. Some time later, Fremantle99 reinstated it, whereupon it was removed by User:G-13114. Fremantle99 promptly restored it, and then I took it out again, and initiated a good faith discussion on the Talk page. "Aneditor" then joined in to defend the bogus infobox, and I responded in good faith.
Somewhat later, I realized that "Aneditor" was actually Fremantle99 posing under a different name. I then poked around into the logs, and found the situation described in Talk:Tram#Unhelpful infobox. I'm rather annoyed that I was fooled (briefly) by a rather transparent dodge. Do you think the reprimand I wrote was too harsh, or was it too mild? Also, the one-man competition in Wikipedia:WikiSnap Challenge strikes me as bizarre and possibly counterproductive. Is any further action needed, or should the situation just be monitored for further developments? I have little experience dealing with this kind of affair, so I look to you as a friendly and far-more-experienced admin for advice. Reify-tech ( talk) 13:41, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

Are you also in the habit of harassing editors for following WP:Article titles?....I mean a string puller? -- DonCasT2 talk — Preceding undated comment added 01:51, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
You said at the talk page that you were planning in the near future to expand the article ... however, that was over two years ago. I am thinking of doing so with some pictures I've takn in China; I've found more sources. Are you still interested in doing so, or can I go ahead? Daniel Case ( talk) 04:35, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
Basically, the article as it will become will discuss the history of the concept ( Jan Wong writes about using them for her own son when she returned to Beijing for The Globe and Mail, and speculates that it might have evolved from China being short of just about everything except people, so that a method of toilet training that required the child to seek help from any nearby adult was likeliest to work well), the tendency of urban Chinese to associate their use in cities with people from the countryside (along with all the attendant stereotypes, I suppose), the apparent hope of said urban Chinese and Western diaper manufacturers that that the use of that product will eventually displace the kaidangku (I've been to China twice in the past year, and I think we both know that that's going to take a long time to happen), and the embrace of kaidangku by some Western advocates of elimination communication as a toilet training method (there have been some reported uses of them in the streets of hipster neighborhoods in Brooklyn; reportedly if you shop in the right stores in Chinatown (or today, I daresay, Flushing (ironically enough)), you can get them for a dollar).
I'm also wondering if I will get more of this sort of cultural resistance in the process (I relented to him on the grounds that the article was a stub and didn't need so many pictures (currently it has yours of the pants on sale in Haikou). Especially if I go my usual route and submit the expanded article to DYK. With the picture. Daniel Case ( talk) 16:49, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
I'm almost done; have to write the section on Western adoption of the pants, and then put the other pictures back in (Didn't realize there were articles in the Chinese, Japanese and Korean Wikipedias, either). Then I'll take it to DYK. Daniel Case ( talk) 05:45, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
Thanks. I could only use the bǎ, since it's supported by the source, although I'd love to include the rest, but that clears so much up ... it's technically a reference to the position one is holding the infant in, not the sound, which then metonymically stands in for the whole process of toilet training that way. At least the way Wong seems to use it.
You know, I actually did take a picture in Temple of Heaven Park of an old man holding a tinkling child up in the bushes (well, in the median of the walkway to the subway stop, basically in plain view (or I wouldn't have taken it, even though I'd been advised that the Chinese don't mind). I might actually have used it, but for the fact that I took it without looking through the viewfinder, so it came out with them out of focus (although it's still pretty obvious what's going on). I sort of wish I'd tried better; it would illustrate bǎ perfectly.
I also saw, on my trips to China, a kid with nothing on below the waist poop on The Bund (no less!), followed by his mother pointing to it looking expectantly past us in the crowd toward (I guess) his father, and a little boy peeing in the bushes (standing up) with his father behind him just outside the Summer Palace. Though in fairness I saw something similar in Jerusalem once, and who am I to talk, really? I took my son into the bushes a few times when he was younger (though I always took measures to be out of public view).
I have, as you may have been able to see, more or less finished the article, put the pictures in and nominated it for DYK. We'll see how this goes ... I have credited you as a coauthor for all the inspiration and encouragement you provided, as well as your help with the Chinese. Daniel Case ( talk) 04:19, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
It will be running Monday morning (your time, in Hainan) and Sunday night (my time, on the U.S. East Coast). The reviewer loved it and thanked us both—said he learned things. They'll be using the first hook, about how Chinese parents are using them less while Western parents use them more. And, of course, the picture (Interesting note: this will come right after the previous set of hooks, which uses my picture of Squaw Island. I wonder if this would be the first time the same user has had photos grace a consecutive set of hooks. Daniel Case ( talk) 01:59, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Ms. Frodesiak:
Having spent a lot of time looking through photos of China, I have come across quite a few of yours and I think they are fantastic!
I wanted to thank you for licensing the photos as Public Domain and let you know that in accordance with that license we have incorporated some of your photos into our website and apps.
Today we launched HANYU.CO, a Mandarin Chinese language learning service. Instead of the drab, generic stock photos most sites like this use we want to highlight China’s scenery, culture and history with fantastic photography, of which certainly yours qualifies.
In addition to our own photos, so far we have collected roughly 175 high resolution photos from third parties that are each showcased with the various language lessons. We have chosen six of your photos (and one you retouched) to be included.
If you are interested, this page shows all of the photos we’ve collected, their authors and the image licenses. http://www.hanyu.co/contributors.aspx You are of course given attribution for your photos on the website and within the apps.
If you have any questions at all or any concerns, please do let me know.
Thanks again!

The headers contained an error and a link to a page at your mail site that described the reason as having detected copyvio or spam in the message. My message had only one non-wikipedia link in it, and it does not trip any of my AV warnings. Looks like their spam filter is a bit too sensitive. Perhaps you can whitelist anything with "wikipedia" in it?

I certainly accept that you could describe someone as a Scottish politician. However, a person's nationality is usually used to describe the relationship between that person and the nation state to which they belong. I agree that when it comes to the United Kingdom this can be open to interpretation. However, since the UK is a nation state and Scotland is not (currently) and citizens of the UK are described as British it would be most correct to describe Scottish, Welsh, English and Northern Irish people as British Nationals. I understand that this may be contentious and would not have an issue with someone being described as a Scottish politician or Welsh singer, English actor etc.

Dear @ Anna Frodesiak:
I am at the point of leaving Wikipedia all together even though my knowledge is critical at this time for quickly developing Arabic articles, and my well sourced "Article" edit history has a shining record of my worth. You informed me that "From this moment on, if you are done wrong by, then nobody has to dig into a long history with lots of text to figure out who is right. Light will clearly shine, and the culprits will be exposed."
I am being done wrong on a daily basis by a (very) small number of people. To make this short, the flagrantly "biased" Rfc at [24] was concocted via private emails that were not discussing only personal matters... and is now used as a pretext to shame me, mob lynch me and hound me mercilessly with unfounded and largely exaggerated accusations, and purposeful additions of bogus stuff unrelated to the "single same dispute of the Rfc" every time I make a "well sourced" edit while Technophant's flagrant violations of policy are shamelessly overlooked. On the Rfc which must deal with one same single dispute, I have already asked for an objective, knowledgeable, uninvolved and unbiased admin, and no one has responded yet.
Technophant and email pal keep going back to their favorite admin. So, I will ask you to take a look at the Rfc, (including the Rfc Talk page), and help me get Technophant and his (very) few pals off my back once for all... Otherwise, and if I cannot make this clear to them, I am just going to leave Wikipedia for good. This is now not worth it. The daily badgering is affecting my quality of life. The way I feel right now, I wish I never prayed for that man when he pleaded on his talk page for someone to pray for him. Worldedixor ( talk) 04:47, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

Hi Anna Frodesiak: Have you ever nominated/co-nominated anyone for Wikipedia adminship? I'm presently considering the matter of running again after User:Stalwart111 has suggested that I give it another try (see "The final straw..." section on my talk page). Stalwart111 has posited the notion of using a co-nominator, and since you're someone I have actually worked with on many articles (e.g. User:Northamerica1000/Article collaboration), you came into mind.

Hi, Anna (and talk page stalkers). Fountain Posters has been busy uploading new versions of images to Commons that are commonly used on Wikipedia. [1] [2] Most of his new uploads claim he is adjusting levels, white balance, and curves, but as far as I can tell on my monitor, these new images are not an improvement but are instead, "washing" out the colors and making them all but unusable. Recent uploads that have me questioning this practice are here, [3], [4], [5], but there are so many, I wonder if he should be asked to stop doing this and if his uploads should be reverted. For example, is the brightness enhancement of this image an improvement? I really can't see how. Can someone weigh in here? I'm asking here because the community on Commons is impossible to deal with in any capacity, and the majority of these "enhancements" concern highly trafficked pages on Wikipedia.

Also, on another topic, we don't know how to put that long Rectangular Box in our article - the one that goes on the Right Hand side, of the Page , showing a Logo of a Company , its President , Address , URL etc.
We tried to look at the Templates but all they showed us was blank Pages.

Hi Anna, & thanks, for being nice.
No - no bugs. We're not in the bug business.
The letters with the dots, for us, stand for something, & it starts with "I.A. ..." ... "the International Association of" ... .
We're in the Entertainment & Studio area. You asked us, if we only wanted to write about "Our" Organization.
Scott L. Fredricks Studios is NOT our organization . We're NOT associated with them, but we were writing about them - it's our job.
And your friend "Kww" is close to looking at a law suit possibly by them, & definitely by us !
We don't know if he actually works for Wikipedia , but Wikipedia may be getting sued by them ( Scott L. Fredricks Studios ) , & by us, because of the way he's acting.
So we've already said this, many times - we're NOT here to write on bugs, or anything else, except what our Reporters & Writers were doing, writing the Article that they did ( & in the way they did it ).
We need our copy of what we wrote, back, for our records, & for our own separate purposes.
We also need to know, how to put that Long Rectangular Box on the Right hand Side , there - the one that shows a Company Logo , Name of the Pres & CEO , Addresses , URL , etc. . — Preceding

I've blocked Ifalotaibi for a week for vandalizing your user page, but I thought I should follow up, given the mention at AIV about the possibility its a compromised account. Seems odd that they would edit the same articles as before after an account compromise, but I can't figure out what else may have served as a trigger. Was wondering if you had any ideas.

Hello Anna
I don't know if you still remember me. You reviewed my new Wikipedia webpage for the Asian productivity organization before and pointed out some copy right issues both in content and APO's logo picture.
Fortunately, Japanese and Korean Wikipedia pages were approved, so I would like to ask for some help to upload APO's logo.
Of course, the APO approved using the logo for Wikipedia pages for any languages.
I'll look forward to hearing from you!
Thank you so much in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kwangyun.lee ( talk • contribs) 01:17, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
Hi, I am the copyright owner of the text and information published on www.munshilaw.com and am trying to create an article relating to my father, Mr. Aziz A. Munshi, Senior Advocate, Supreme Court of Pakistan.

Hi Anna,
I am sorry that the link i added to Yorkshire water was removed, as you can see from my account it was my 1st edit. so i am still learning the rules of Wikipedia....
I do need to pick your brains tho, if i wanted to add a page about a different business i assume that i just add a page then fill it with information and make sure that i write it as a 3rd party (as in not do it as self promotion?)
and include any relevant links to the official website, published information etc etc..... am i making sense? or just talking jibberish?
I look forward to your reply and fingers crossed getting my 1st page published with Wikipedia
Cheers

Anna,
I appreciate your input on my submission for a Zyntony page in Wikipedia. We are a new corporation and have had several people ask what Zyntony is. It certainly is an unusual name which we have trademarked. Since most corporations have a Wikipedia page, we followed their outline in presenting factual information about the company rather than promotional information. I would appreciate your guidance in structuring the content to what is appropriate.

I've cleaned up enough "List of..." articles that some meta-level good ideas and best practices have become evident to me. Is there some WP or MOS article where such wisdom is collected? I've done some searching, but have only come up with a technical article on the syntax of lists. If a good article on the subject exists, I'd like to read it for further enlightenment, and to have a place to direct new editors to for guidance. If it doesn't exist yet, perhaps I and other interested editors could write one. I see the same mistakes being made, fixed (sometimes), and discussed repeatedly on the Talk pages of various "List of..." articles, and would like to see the wasted editorial energy redirected to better purposes. Or has somebody already tried to do this and given up? You've been around for a while, and have taken an interest in various "List of..." articles; I'm interested in your experience with this.

It was nice of you to unblock this user (too nice?
CIR,
IDIDNTHEARTHAT and
NOTHERE are looking more and more applicable), but in future cases like this, it would be more sensible to have the user file a
CHU request rather than getting them to register a new account. There's now no clear direct connection back from
Absolute Healing to
Sri Rupaji Anant Charitable Trust, despite them being the same user. As a rule, unless they're under a {{
softerblock}}
, they need to get their account unblocked and change the name rather than creating a new account, since doing so is technically
block evasion.

Please look at Talk:Tram#Unhelpful infobox. This little discussion started when User:Fremantle99 added a singularly unhelpful infobox and photo to Tram. IP editor User:120.21.128.215 eventually noticed it and removed it. Some time later, Fremantle99 reinstated it, whereupon it was removed by User:G-13114. Fremantle99 promptly restored it, and then I took it out again, and initiated a good faith discussion on the Talk page. "Aneditor" then joined in to defend the bogus infobox, and I responded in good faith.
Somewhat later, I realized that "Aneditor" was actually Fremantle99 posing under a different name. I then poked around into the logs, and found the situation described in Talk:Tram#Unhelpful infobox. I'm rather annoyed that I was fooled (briefly) by a rather transparent dodge. Do you think the reprimand I wrote was too harsh, or was it too mild? Also, the one-man competition in Wikipedia:WikiSnap Challenge strikes me as bizarre and possibly counterproductive. Is any further action needed, or should the situation just be monitored for further developments? I have little experience dealing with this kind of affair, so I look to you as a friendly and far-more-experienced admin for advice. Reify-tech ( talk) 13:41, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

Are you also in the habit of harassing editors for following WP:Article titles?....I mean a string puller? -- DonCasT2 talk — Preceding undated comment added 01:51, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
You said at the talk page that you were planning in the near future to expand the article ... however, that was over two years ago. I am thinking of doing so with some pictures I've takn in China; I've found more sources. Are you still interested in doing so, or can I go ahead? Daniel Case ( talk) 04:35, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
Basically, the article as it will become will discuss the history of the concept ( Jan Wong writes about using them for her own son when she returned to Beijing for The Globe and Mail, and speculates that it might have evolved from China being short of just about everything except people, so that a method of toilet training that required the child to seek help from any nearby adult was likeliest to work well), the tendency of urban Chinese to associate their use in cities with people from the countryside (along with all the attendant stereotypes, I suppose), the apparent hope of said urban Chinese and Western diaper manufacturers that that the use of that product will eventually displace the kaidangku (I've been to China twice in the past year, and I think we both know that that's going to take a long time to happen), and the embrace of kaidangku by some Western advocates of elimination communication as a toilet training method (there have been some reported uses of them in the streets of hipster neighborhoods in Brooklyn; reportedly if you shop in the right stores in Chinatown (or today, I daresay, Flushing (ironically enough)), you can get them for a dollar).
I'm also wondering if I will get more of this sort of cultural resistance in the process (I relented to him on the grounds that the article was a stub and didn't need so many pictures (currently it has yours of the pants on sale in Haikou). Especially if I go my usual route and submit the expanded article to DYK. With the picture. Daniel Case ( talk) 16:49, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
I'm almost done; have to write the section on Western adoption of the pants, and then put the other pictures back in (Didn't realize there were articles in the Chinese, Japanese and Korean Wikipedias, either). Then I'll take it to DYK. Daniel Case ( talk) 05:45, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
Thanks. I could only use the bǎ, since it's supported by the source, although I'd love to include the rest, but that clears so much up ... it's technically a reference to the position one is holding the infant in, not the sound, which then metonymically stands in for the whole process of toilet training that way. At least the way Wong seems to use it.
You know, I actually did take a picture in Temple of Heaven Park of an old man holding a tinkling child up in the bushes (well, in the median of the walkway to the subway stop, basically in plain view (or I wouldn't have taken it, even though I'd been advised that the Chinese don't mind). I might actually have used it, but for the fact that I took it without looking through the viewfinder, so it came out with them out of focus (although it's still pretty obvious what's going on). I sort of wish I'd tried better; it would illustrate bǎ perfectly.
I also saw, on my trips to China, a kid with nothing on below the waist poop on The Bund (no less!), followed by his mother pointing to it looking expectantly past us in the crowd toward (I guess) his father, and a little boy peeing in the bushes (standing up) with his father behind him just outside the Summer Palace. Though in fairness I saw something similar in Jerusalem once, and who am I to talk, really? I took my son into the bushes a few times when he was younger (though I always took measures to be out of public view).
I have, as you may have been able to see, more or less finished the article, put the pictures in and nominated it for DYK. We'll see how this goes ... I have credited you as a coauthor for all the inspiration and encouragement you provided, as well as your help with the Chinese. Daniel Case ( talk) 04:19, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
It will be running Monday morning (your time, in Hainan) and Sunday night (my time, on the U.S. East Coast). The reviewer loved it and thanked us both—said he learned things. They'll be using the first hook, about how Chinese parents are using them less while Western parents use them more. And, of course, the picture (Interesting note: this will come right after the previous set of hooks, which uses my picture of Squaw Island. I wonder if this would be the first time the same user has had photos grace a consecutive set of hooks. Daniel Case ( talk) 01:59, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Ms. Frodesiak:
Having spent a lot of time looking through photos of China, I have come across quite a few of yours and I think they are fantastic!
I wanted to thank you for licensing the photos as Public Domain and let you know that in accordance with that license we have incorporated some of your photos into our website and apps.
Today we launched HANYU.CO, a Mandarin Chinese language learning service. Instead of the drab, generic stock photos most sites like this use we want to highlight China’s scenery, culture and history with fantastic photography, of which certainly yours qualifies.
In addition to our own photos, so far we have collected roughly 175 high resolution photos from third parties that are each showcased with the various language lessons. We have chosen six of your photos (and one you retouched) to be included.
If you are interested, this page shows all of the photos we’ve collected, their authors and the image licenses. http://www.hanyu.co/contributors.aspx You are of course given attribution for your photos on the website and within the apps.
If you have any questions at all or any concerns, please do let me know.
Thanks again!

Another list cries out for your help! It would be helpful to have columns showing the differences, but this could take some work. Viriditas ( talk) 23:32, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Seal meat, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Seals. 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.

Why did you block User:IBCPirates? That was useless! Now, how am I going to get into that account if it's blocked? What if the person was going to give me the password eventually on Scratch? So I can never use IBCPirates again? WHY? /:-( -- CaptainElizabethSwann ( talk) 19:04, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
I still regret that why I tried to help you. I was such a bone headed moron that I tried helping you and haven't understood that it will cause trouble to others (including you). Honestly, it was a bad use of mass message and am still ashamed of that. It is likely that, all those who were aware of that incident will never except me as an experienced one. I know time is a great healer but invoking my past in your comments is something that hurts me and points me my mistake again and again. I admit that it was all my fault and I apologize for that. But please try to understand what I'm trying to say. Thanks, Jim Carter (from public cyber) 19:35, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi Anna, I left a message for you but not sure if you received it. Can you please tell me how to set up a wiki page without misusing Wikipedia's guidelines or please tell me I am on my own, thank you Timedborg 12:21, 11 September 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Timedborg ( talk • contribs)

Hi, this José Gabriel Gonsalves is a re-creation of this twice-deleted page Gabriel Gonsalves. What do you think? Note that it was re-created by an SPA. Also note that the image in the article had been uploaded by Klokus/Newzealand123. Thanks. Logical Cowboy ( talk) 16:36, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
I certainly accept that you could describe someone as a Scottish politician. However, a person's nationality is usually used to describe the relationship between that person and the nation state to which they belong. I agree that when it comes to the United Kingdom this can be open to interpretation. However, since the UK is a nation state and Scotland is not (currently) and citizens of the UK are described as British it would be most correct to describe Scottish, Welsh, English and Northern Irish people as British Nationals. I understand that this may be contentious and would not have an issue with someone being described as a Scottish politician or Welsh singer, English actor etc.

Dear @ Anna Frodesiak:
I am at the point of leaving Wikipedia all together even though my knowledge is critical at this time for quickly developing Arabic articles, and my well sourced "Article" edit history has a shining record of my worth. You informed me that "From this moment on, if you are done wrong by, then nobody has to dig into a long history with lots of text to figure out who is right. Light will clearly shine, and the culprits will be exposed."
I am being done wrong on a daily basis by a (very) small number of people. To make this short, the flagrantly "biased" Rfc at [24] was concocted via private emails that were not discussing only personal matters... and is now used as a pretext to shame me, mob lynch me and hound me mercilessly with unfounded and largely exaggerated accusations, and purposeful additions of bogus stuff unrelated to the "single same dispute of the Rfc" every time I make a "well sourced" edit while Technophant's flagrant violations of policy are shamelessly overlooked. On the Rfc which must deal with one same single dispute, I have already asked for an objective, knowledgeable, uninvolved and unbiased admin, and no one has responded yet.
Technophant and email pal keep going back to their favorite admin. So, I will ask you to take a look at the Rfc, (including the Rfc Talk page), and help me get Technophant and his (very) few pals off my back once for all... Otherwise, and if I cannot make this clear to them, I am just going to leave Wikipedia for good. This is now not worth it. The daily badgering is affecting my quality of life. The way I feel right now, I wish I never prayed for that man when he pleaded on his talk page for someone to pray for him. Worldedixor ( talk) 04:47, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

Hi Anna Frodesiak: Have you ever nominated/co-nominated anyone for Wikipedia adminship? I'm presently considering the matter of running again after User:Stalwart111 has suggested that I give it another try (see "The final straw..." section on my talk page). Stalwart111 has posited the notion of using a co-nominator, and since you're someone I have actually worked with on many articles (e.g. User:Northamerica1000/Article collaboration), you came into mind. Anyway, this is just an initial query, no rush, and it's all just under consideration at this time. Feel free to post any comments on my talk page in the aforementioned section, if you're interested in doing so. NorthAmerica 1000 11:18, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

Hi Anna: Firstly, I'll respond to your reply in the thread above a little later. For now, per your abilities to quickly format tables, requesting conversion to table format the brand new List of pasta dishes that I just created, if you're interested in doing so. The requested column headers are: Name, Image, Origin and Description. I think this article will look great organized with the table format. Thanks for your consideration!
