Thanks your your advice. I would argue it was a test page though as his attempt was to create a guideline for a game he made up, and so it was nonsense as it had nothing to back it up as it was irrelevant to actuall games. Sopher99 ( talk) 13:44, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
You recently voted in a Articles for Deletion debate regarding the Staff Nurse Ella Kate Cooke article. Since your vote, I have completely re-worked the article and added reliable sources to it. In light of this, could you please reword your vote as a response that relates to the re-worked article (whether that be Keep or Delete)? Silver seren C 01:22, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
I didn't even know there was such a list regarding edits made! Funny I was the last one on the list. I saw lots of userboxes at the bottom of that list page. Do you know how to make and/or adject one of them? I only ask because I've uploaded over 600 photos to Wikimedia Commons -anyone can check-- but also, the main reason I appreciate things like Barnstars and now, this cool thing is that often as a wikignome/wikifairy working on unreferenced articles, "I can't get no respect"! Having userboxes and barnstars on my page make new users pause and re-consider before leaving snarky messages on my talk page! could you help make them for me, or find someone else who can? It would help a lot. Thanks! -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 17:01, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
Just a note to let you know I declined your speedy deletion on this article; I see little, if any, promotional material on this article; G11 is only for articles where it is purely promotional and requires a fundamental rewrite to become encyclopaedic. If you have concerns about specific portions of the article, you could remove or rewrite those sections as being promotional, and/or add a neutrality maintenance template to the article. In addition, remember that speedy deletion criteria are only for uncontroversial deletion; bear in mind that this article has already been taken to AfD and the result was no consensus. It should only be deleted as a result of a new AfD discussion. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 20:59, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Hello. Why did you mark my article for speedy deletion? Sautner is an Austrian writer, he already published three novels, whose topics are the Yeniche people. There is nothing comparable in Austrian or German literature. In addition, with three novels, Sautner fulfills the notability criteria, doesn't he? Please explain or/and withdraw your request.

Hi, I need to know if you (or someone you know here) could start a Category here for people who play the Weissenborn? Here is a page full of names of people who perform on the instrument, but it's listed as something different entirely at the bottom of the screeen.

There was also this person who seems to have gone through your recent edit history and undone many of your edits, without regard to what they were.

I have been uploading a LOT of photos --one guy in Germany was kind enough to offer his entire extensive collection. Anyway, some are really needed since it's doubtful there'll be any more of these artists that'll be free images to upload to Commons. The problem is that I can't slice and trim some of the photos- we CAN do it; the license alone gives us clear sailing, but a handful of them can be trimmed and fit into an infobox. They'd have to be "sliced and diced" (haha) to just have one person in the infobox about each person. Would you be willing to trim any photos? I can't because A) I'm computer-ignorant. B) can't on this computer and would screw it up anyhow I think. There was another editor on en.wikipedia -- User:Suede67 but it appears he's been M.I.A. for some time.. suddenly he just disappeared! He and I used to trade little tasks with one another. Ah well- If I give you the location of the photos and what needs done, would you be willing to help trim them? I have the photographer's blessing, even. -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 19:24, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
I noted your comment here and moved the ref's into the external links section, as they were surplus to requirements anyhow and are covered by the other sources regardless.

Hi Catfish Jim, we seem to have covered all the points raised during your GA review of the Wales article (would you mind confirming if that is correct). The exception, of course, is the introduction. We have a suggested lead here: User:Daicaregos/sandbox, and have (just) advertised on the Talkpage for any suggestions, amendments or improvements to it. Would it be possible to extend the review hold to allow editor feedback for what is, actually, quite a big change? If so, I would also like to advertise on the WP:WWNB to try to gain as much consensus as possible, which could help maintain article stability. A further seven days would be much appreciated. Please let me know if that would be OK. Thanks, Daicaregos ( talk) 10:17, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Hey- we don't have more than one photo that shows John Illsley of Dire Straits.

I'm so sorry to bug you! I know only a handful of editors on Wikipedia, but only 2-3 of you are good at these things. First, is there any hope for this photo (with your exceptional talents) towards showing George Duke in his own infobox: [9] ?? Right now, it's all we have, and I think it beats what is on his page now. I suppose I'll have to go trolling for his picture, even so. Also, my list of musician-photo uploads got so big I made a special page for the list. Would you be interested in interior decorating my userpage so that the list, (which has the link right above the little photo gallery there) can be seen more easily? Kind of like, "click on this object to find a list of upload names" (you can pick the object, I don't care). ?? It would help. Tell me if I'm pushing you too much, OK? thanks. -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 05:48, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
On 10 December 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Woodwrae Stone, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that when the foundations of an old Scottish castle in Angus were cleared in 1819, a floor slab in the castle's kitchen was found to be a Pictish stone, the Woodwrae Stone (pictured)? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000.

Thank you for uploading File:NI opinion poll 2009.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 14:24, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Ji Man-Won, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Existence of an article on other projects indicates that the subject might be significant or important. Please use WP:AFD instead. Thank you. So Why 21:12, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I'm not sure if you're aware, but you don't need to edit the WP:GAN page any more (for example, putting articles on hold). Just edit the template on the article talkpage. Otherwise, chances are that the GA bot will just revert you! -- Beloved Freak 13:23, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
I have been uploading a LOT of photos --one guy in Germany was kind enough to offer his entire extensive collection. Anyway, some are really needed since it's doubtful there'll be any more of these artists that'll be free images to upload to Commons. The problem is that I can't slice and trim some of the photos- we CAN do it; the license alone gives us clear sailing, but a handful of them can be trimmed and fit into an infobox. They'd have to be "sliced and diced" (haha) to just have one person in the infobox about each person. Would you be willing to trim any photos? I can't because A) I'm computer-ignorant. B) can't on this computer and would screw it up anyhow I think. There was another editor on en.wikipedia -- User:Suede67 but it appears he's been M.I.A. for some time.. suddenly he just disappeared! He and I used to trade little tasks with one another. Ah well- If I give you the location of the photos and what needs done, would you be willing to help trim them? I have the photographer's blessing, even. -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 19:24, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
I noted your comment here and moved the ref's into the external links section, as they were surplus to requirements anyhow and are covered by the other sources regardless. Obviously your right, it was covered in national papers considering the circumstances, really goes without saying. Thanks -- Domer48 'fenian' 21:38, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Catfish Jim, we seem to have covered all the points raised during your GA review of the Wales article (would you mind confirming if that is correct). The exception, of course, is the introduction. We have a suggested lead here: User:Daicaregos/sandbox, and have (just) advertised on the Talkpage for any suggestions, amendments or improvements to it. Would it be possible to extend the review hold to allow editor feedback for what is, actually, quite a big change? If so, I would also like to advertise on the WP:WWNB to try to gain as much consensus as possible, which could help maintain article stability. A further seven days would be much appreciated. Please let me know if that would be OK. Thanks, Daicaregos ( talk) 10:17, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for your support at my RfA last week. I'll do everything I can to live up to your expectations and if you ever need help from a janitor please feel free to drop me a line! P.s. You have one of the best usernames ever Panyd The muffin is not subtle 21:19, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
Hey- we don't have more than one photo that shows John Illsley of Dire Straits. If possible, it would be great to lighten this photo (he's the one on the left) and crop it, so there's a visible photo of him to add to his biography article text: [8] Hate to dump things on you-- if it is doable, it would really help! -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 00:20, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
I'm so sorry to bug you! I know only a handful of editors on Wikipedia, but only 2-3 of you are good at these things. First, is there any hope for this photo (with your exceptional talents) towards showing George Duke in his own infobox: [9] ?? Right now, it's all we have, and I think it beats what is on his page now. I suppose I'll have to go trolling for his picture, even so. Also, my list of musician-photo uploads got so big I made a special page for the list. Would you be interested in interior decorating my userpage so that the list, (which has the link right above the little photo gallery there) can be seen more easily? Kind of like, "click on this object to find a list of upload names" (you can pick the object, I don't care). ?? It would help. Tell me if I'm pushing you too much, OK? thanks. -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 05:48, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
On 10 December 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Woodwrae Stone, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that when the foundations of an old Scottish castle in Angus were cleared in 1819, a floor slab in the castle's kitchen was found to be a Pictish stone, the Woodwrae Stone (pictured)? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

There are a few photos that I, or someone else uploaded to Wikimedia Commons that still have "watermarks" on them. Do you know how to remove them? They are here: [10], here: [11], and here: [12] There's an additional problem with the last one. I don't know what I was thinking, but the file name has her as "Belinda Carlilei", when her true name is Brandi Carlile!
Can you help with either of these problems (or both?) I just can't believe I screwed up so bad!! Thanks! -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 22:06, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
I'll spesk to the photographrt in the morning and see what's happening. Thsnks once agsin. -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 23:11, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:NI opinion poll 2009.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 14:24, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads up. John Hendo ( talk) 13:27, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
Those really pretty userboxes you made for me from the barnstars I had, that you placed on my talk page are still there, and (whenever you have time), I think I'd like to change my mind and have you place them on my userpage instead of those giant monstrosities that are there now. I'm so computer ignorant, it isn't funny! Any changes you would like to make to my Userpage, sandboxes, whatever-- you have my complete permission to change! You are so appreciated! :) -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 00:44, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
