Hey! Thanks for the article ratings. A lot of these my students, so I feel a little conflicted about doing so. One question: Olivia, the book, is a Caldecott Honor Book, so maybe "Mid" or "High" instead of "low" importance? It is also a best-selling series. One of my students will write the article for the book in April-May. Here are the wards listed for all the books in the series:

I just noticed that Sophie Hunter has notable relatives and this should be reflected in her infobox. All sources are in the family family section of the page. If you may be so kind to copy-paste this to the page, I would be very grateful and it would be a big improvement to her page. Thank you in advance! 93.82.123.109 ( talk) 06:01, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

Can't quite see what's stubby and low about this page. What do you suggest is missing? Bmcln1 ( talk) 20:27, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
I agree about the info box. I don't do pictures, I'm afraid - life's too short. I'm afraid I can't consult any of her books to do a synopsis, but I'll look again on the Web to see if anyone else has done such. There is not a great deal more to be found about her anywhere, to be honest, which is not unusual. As a Quaker and a woman writer of the middle class she would be unlikely to trumpet her literary achievements much in that period, and schoolbooks were not usually reviewed. I feel the page is adequately referenced. Most of the info came from the ODNB, which is reliable. I can send you the text of that if you like, as it's pay-walled.

Thanks for notifying me about the notability issues. I am more than happy to fix the problems on my articles. I'd suggest you also notify the relevant wikiprojects; our Polish one for example is relatively active. I have taken care, I hope, of Świerszczyk, and I'll see about the other one soon. If you consider any AfDs, please check if there are WikiProject Poland templates on the talk page (otherwise we won't be notified), and if you can, try to check with me before the AfD so I can look for refs.

Hi there -- you're welcome. I found them by accident because the same IP had made what looked to be a vandal edit to a different page that I was reading. I just went to the last version before they started messing with it (after doing too much looking up to make sure I wasn't wrong) and then edited that page and saved it. So no rollback privs necessary. I left a warning on that user's IP talk page just in case they were goofing and not vandalizing but I have both pages on my watchlist now as well.

Hello—I think it's great that you're helping the Children's Lit portal, but the template formatting you've chosen to insert in many pages over the last day is not the appropriate one for most of the instances where you've employed it. I recommend reading the WP:P#How to add portal links to articles and perhaps looking at the correction I made to Wimmelbilderbuch as an example. If you have any questions, just respond here. I'll make sure I check back here next time I'm in wiki mode. Cheers! — jameslucas ( " " / +) 11:00, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Hello Coolabahapple,
Unregistered editors cannot create articles on Wikipedia, but they can use the articles for creation process to submit drafts that registered editors can either accept and publish or decline. The WikiProject Articles for creation is looking for experienced editors who want to partake in this peer review process. If you have what it takes to get involved, then please take a look at the reviewing instructions. To discuss specific AfC reviews, do so freely on the designated talk page.
There is currently a backlog of over 2800 drafts (0 very old).
If you know an editor who may be willing to help out, please use the template you are currently reading {{subst:

to draw attention to this WikiProject. Many hands make light work!

Hi. You thanked me for "repair layout" at Arnold Lobel#See also (not for "delete Amphibians", i take for granted) and for By the Shores of Silver Lake with correct layout of portals at By the Shores of Silver Lake#External links. I think the main point is, if the Portals code (vertical stack, not horizontal bar) precedes that for ordinary See also and External links bullet lists, then the Portals stack is displayed at right margin adjacent to bullet list; bullet entries wrap around Portals links. --rather than display Portals stack at right margin below bullet list, each Portal on a line of its own. If I understand correctly, Portal templates should always follow those for Commons and other wikimedia. Otherwise they are at the top of their section.
P.S. I am the author of {Portal bar} with comment "delete the word 'bar' ..." -- hundreds or even 1000 at the top of writer/illustrator See also sections, from 2012 or so. -- P64 ( talk) 16:04, 21 September 2015 (UTC)
Not being sure about the ping process, I'll add a quick note here as well.
First, let me thank you for the polite way you're dealing with the issue. I've dealt with a few extremely uncivil editors about the proposed deletion of a few other DF pages. Second, well, I'm concerned about having a missing book or other of the series, but it's already mentioned on the deletion discussion page. Third, I would appreciate if you explained to me why the NYTimes bestseller list not being good enough to establish notability, while Locus and Vector do. It's impossible not to know about the NYTimes bestseller list; having been an avid sf reader in my younger days I know about Locus, but Vector is a complete unknown to me.

Thank you for helping me understand more about the AfD process after the Kelly DiPucchio entry was nominated. It was nice to have it resolved quickly, but it really concerns me that some editors seem to be in a rush to nominate new entries for deletion. This specific situation was my second entry that was listed for deletion, the other was a speedy deletion request that happened within 5 minutes of me creating the entry. The editor claimed it was a "good faith 5-minutes". Is there anything I can do as someone creating new entries to counter this? I may not have many edits compared to the length of time I have been involved in Wikipedia, but I have been paying attention and I think this is one of the thing that scares new editors away. Few may be willing to fight back or even know how to do so. I would love some guidance on this. -- LibraryGurl ( talk) 15:01, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi Coolabahapple, I started the article to get the ball rolling on it. I used to have these learning books as a child. I was surprised there was no article on Dot and Jim at the Wikipedia, so I started one. Some of the topic I remember, but it's been a long time. Maybe you remember them if you're old enough. I couldn't remember the dog's name for instance. Hopefully there are editors out there who are able to contribute useful info to the article. Those books bring back memories. Thanks.

I'm a little confused by your edit here. Was the page showing up an unassessed page? Why would you delete the project?

You are right that 7,000 words is awful lot of verbiage on whether to delete one article on a relatively obscure character. And that AFD page isn't end of it: see the long discussion on my talk ( permalink)

Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!

I noticed that you have added "Category: [Year] in fiction" to a few articles lately, but these categories are actually for works set in the given year, not published in that year. (Unlike the articles "[Year] in literature", which are for works published in that year.) I can do some fixing later, when I'm more awake. It's nice to see some more articles on David Almond books, by the way – he is an excellent writer. Robina Fox ( talk) 01:08, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
Thanks for commenting to keep my article "Brian Wiprud." You clearly understand authors and books. Would you mind looking at another article I did, "Randall Hicks." The same person initially marked it for deletion for similar reasons, which I don't feel is appropriate. Thanks.

Hi Coolabhapple. Thanks for your encouragement. I don't know anyone in the editing side of Wikipedia so I hope it is okay to ask you a question. The good news is all three of my articles (Randall Hicks, Brian Wiprud and Laurence Shames), all mystery writers, have passed through the deletion stage and that's over. I wish only people who are familiar with a field would make comments about noteability, as no one in myster/detective fiction would have thought that. But the right result got reached. My question is the Randall Hicks article still has a "close connection" tag at the top which is annoying. I don't have a close connection to him and several people have edited the article besides me. How does it get removed? Thanks. I hope this is the right way to reach you. Gelo962 ( talk) 21:50, 12 February 2017 (UTC)Gelo962

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. 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.

Hey! Thanks for the article ratings. A lot of these my students, so I feel a little conflicted about doing so.

I agree about the info box. I don't do pictures, I'm afraid - life's too short. I'm afraid I can't consult any of her books to do a synopsis, but I'll look again on the Web to see if anyone else has done such. There is not a great deal more to be found about her anywhere, to be honest, which is not unusual. As a Quaker and a woman writer of the middle class she would be unlikely to trumpet her literary achievements much in that period, and schoolbooks were not usually reviewed. I feel the page is adequately referenced. Most of the info came from the ODNB, which is reliable. I can send you the text of that if you like, as it's pay-walled.

Hi there -- you're welcome. I found them by accident because the same IP had made what looked to be a vandal edit to a different page that I was reading. I just went to the last version before they started messing with it (after doing too much looking up to make sure I wasn't wrong) and then edited that page and saved it. So no rollback privs necessary. I left a warning on that user's IP talk page just in case they were goofing and not vandalizing but I have both pages on my watchlist now as well.

Hello—I think it's great that you're helping the Children's Lit portal, but the template formatting you've chosen to insert in many pages over the last day is not the appropriate one for most of the instances where you've employed it. I recommend reading the WP:P#How to add portal links to articles and perhaps looking at the correction I made to Wimmelbilderbuch as an example. If you have any questions, just respond here.

Hi. You thanked me for "repair layout" at Arnold Lobel#See also (not for "delete Amphibians", i take for granted) and for By the Shores of Silver Lake with correct layout of portals at By the Shores of Silver Lake#External links. I think the main point is, if the Portals code (vertical stack, not horizontal bar) precedes that for ordinary See also and External links bullet lists, then the Portals stack is displayed at right margin adjacent to bullet list; bullet entries wrap around Portals links. --rather than display Portals stack at right margin below bullet list, each Portal on a line of its own. If I understand correctly, Portal templates should always follow those for Commons and other wikimedia. Otherwise they are at the top of their section.
P.S. I am the author of {Portal bar} with comment "delete the word 'bar' ..." -- hundreds or even 1000 at the top of writer/illustrator See also sections, from 2012 or so. -- P64 ( talk) 16:04, 21 September 2015 (UTC)
Not being sure about the ping process, I'll add a quick note here as well.
First, let me thank you for the polite way you're dealing with the issue. I've dealt with a few extremely uncivil editors about the proposed deletion of a few other DF pages. Second, well, I'm concerned about having a missing book or other of the series, but it's already mentioned on the deletion discussion page. Third, I would appreciate if you explained to me why the NYTimes bestseller list not being good enough to establish notability, while Locus and Vector do. It's impossible not to know about the NYTimes bestseller list; having been an avid sf reader in my younger days I know about Locus, but Vector is a complete unknown to me.

Thank you for helping me understand more about the AfD process after the Kelly DiPucchio entry was nominated. It was nice to have it resolved quickly, but it really concerns me that some editors seem to be in a rush to nominate new entries for deletion. This specific situation was my second entry that was listed for deletion, the other was a speedy deletion request that happened within 5 minutes of me creating the entry. The editor claimed it was a "good faith 5-minutes". Is there anything I can do as someone creating new entries to counter this? I may not have many edits compared to the length of time I have been involved in Wikipedia, but I have been paying attention and I think this is one of the thing that scares new editors away. Few may be willing to fight back or even know how to do so. I would love some guidance on this. -- LibraryGurl ( talk) 15:01, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi Coolabahapple, I started the article to get the ball rolling on it. I used to have these learning books as a child. I was surprised there was no article on Dot and Jim at the Wikipedia, so I started one. Some of the topic I remember, but it's been a long time. Maybe you remember them if you're old enough. I couldn't remember the dog's name for instance. Hopefully there are editors out there who are able to contribute useful info to the article. Those books bring back memories. Thanks.

I'm a little confused by your edit here. Was the page showing up an unassessed page? Why would you delete the project? The problem is that Category:NA-Class children and young adult literature articles is largely full of redirects and that draft so maybe the project should consider adding redirect class. -- Ricky81682 ( talk) 00:48, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Re your comment [1] at AFD:Octaviano Tenorio.
You are right that 7,000 words is awful lot of verbiage on whether to delete one article on a relatively obscure character. And that AFD page isn't end of it: see the long discussion on my talk ( permalink)
Of course, it's not really about Tenorio. He has just become the locus for a wider dispute about a set of policy changes which some editors want to pursue. -- BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs) 15:58, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

Hello. It appears your talk page is becoming quite lengthy and is in need of
archiving. According to
Wikipedia's user talk page guidelines; "Large talk pages become difficult to read, strain the limits of older browsers, and load slowly over slow internet connections. As a rule of thumb, archive closed discussions when a talk page exceeds 75 KB or has multiple resolved or stale discussions." - this talk page is 127.3 KB. See
Help:Archiving a talk page for instructions on how to manually archive your talk page, or to arrange for automatic archiving using a

The Challenge Series is a current drive on English Wikipedia to encourage article improvements and creations globally through a series of 50,000/10,000/1000 Challenges for different regions, countries and topics. All Wikipedia editors in good standing are invited to participate.
Hello, Coolabahapple. Voting in the 2016 Arbitration Committee elections is open from Monday, 00:00, 21 November through Sunday, 23:59, 4 December to all unblocked users who have registered an account before Wednesday, 00:00, 28 October 2016 and have made at least 150 mainspace edits before Sunday, 00:00, 1 November 2016.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment.

Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!

I noticed that you have added "Category: [Year] in fiction" to a few articles lately, but these categories are actually for works set in the given year, not published in that year. (Unlike the articles "[Year] in literature", which are for works published in that year.) I can do some fixing later, when I'm more awake.

Hi Coolabhapple. Thanks for your encouragement. I don't know anyone in the editing side of Wikipedia so I hope it is okay to ask you a question. The good news is all three of my articles (Randall Hicks, Brian Wiprud and Laurence Shames), all mystery writers, have passed through the deletion stage and that's over. I wish only people who are familiar with a field would make comments about noteability, as no one in myster/detective fiction would have thought that. But the right result got reached. My question is the Randall Hicks article still has a "close connection" tag at the top which is annoying. I don't have a close connection to him and several people have edited the article besides me. How does it get removed? Thanks. I hope this is the right way to reach you. Gelo962 ( talk) 21:50, 12 February 2017 (UTC)Gelo962
