G'day Diannaa, thanks very much for the c/e of Operation Trio. I feel much more confident putting it up for GAN now! Regards, Peacemaker67 ( talk) 23:46, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi Thanks for the copy edit. Jim Sweeney ( talk) 10:27, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi Diannaa. No big deal but could I get a rev del on this. Not really my kind of humour. Slight Smile 20:22, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
I removed the db-f3 from File:Zoolea lobipes.jpg. The illustration was published in 1911 and is therefore in the public domain in the United States. CC BY-NC 3.0 refers to the additional text on the source site, which does not affect the public domain status of the illustration. Eastmain ( talk • contribs) 02:34, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Dianna, would you mind taking a look at footnote 4 in Mauritius Blue Pigeon and the discussion about it at Talk:Mauritius Blue Pigeon#November 2012 copy edit? Here we have a 12-page paper that is cited 18 times. Funkmonk has been asked to provide page numbers for these and neither he nor I are quite sure whether it's best to give the whole page range in one footnote or to split it up. What would you consider best? The article is aiming to go to FAC. Thanks, Simon. -- Stfg ( talk) 17:58, 10 November 2012 (UTC)

Just go ahead and delete it. I share the copyright and uploaded it myself, but you are correct. I didn't have permission from the person who took the photo. Sincerely, your friend, GeorgeLouis ( talk) 19:53, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
I have tried without success to find a way of indicating I own the copyright to my parent's photographs and I give my permission for their use. This apparently is not considered ownership of the property. What should I do now and in the future? Thank you. Brad Smith ( talk) 23:56, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
Where do you people get your silly ideas that the person in the picture can't be the owner of the picture because because the person took the pictre owns it? If the camera, film and whatever belonged to the person in the photo then it belongs to the person. Your saying that if I hand you my camera and say "take me picture", the picture belows to you and I need your permission to anything at all with the picture? BULL! In the case of the photo taken in Bosnia in the 2nd Infantry history it belongs to Jason Mitchell as so stated. He started the site and posted the photo, he also posted the other two photos. You people that think you have all the answers to all that is right or wrong with the world why don't you just delete everything in the site because it all came from some place else so therefore has the be copyrighted somehow. That goes for everything on Wikipedia, it all came from some other source and unless specifically stated as such shouldn't be on the sites. You have a lot of deleting to do! Lansmun ( talk) 15:08, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
So I give you my camera, ask you to take my picture, that the camera back, say thanks and we go on our seperate ways. I later use the picture in various ways including on the web. You see it, how exactly are you going to prove that you took the picture? Just by saying so, where is your proof? Do you have the negative or the memory card from the camera? You or anyone else can say whatever they want about the picture but where is the proof! 24.1.149.179 ( talk) 16:39, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I am in the late stage of developing a sources script, and was wondering if you would be interested in being one of my testers. I've written up most of the documentation and built up most of the script functionality. There are some minor missing features. I have already created and stocked three extensive in-built libraries/vocabularies ( 1, 2, 3) which I will continue extending. There's still work to be done to rationalise linkages and optimise the precision in dab situations. I'd value your input regarding any aspect, whether the documentation, objectives, structure or the library itself, and of course how it works.

Hello, Diannaa! I was wondering if you (or another guild member, but hopefully you :>) could take a look at this article for expansion. It's a mess for such a relatively successful band, and my recent attempts to improve the article have only scratched the surface. Could you work the ref magic, so I can cite Felder's book more easily? The sfn|harvard style is fine with me, but I don't know the best way to implement it. Thanks for your consideration on this!

Thanks for semi-protecting the above, can I ask you watchlist the article as the addition of unsourced results is still going on. Mt king (edits) 00:56, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
Hello! Madam.
How are you?
My request is to delete the redirect pages for this article :
Sarocharu (including talk page also).
Redirect pages links :
Have a nice day.
Raghusri ( talk) Raghusri 08:14, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
First of all thank you mam for that deletion. My kindly request is to delete all the other three pages because they are all implausive redirects. According to your opinion they should be kept. But i think they are unnecessary redirects and people will now view the latest title "Sarocharu" if you delete the other three pages. And more over those Spellings are wrong and space should not contain in those letters. This is single word "Sarocharu". If you know Telugu please read this title : "సారొచ్చారు" and see this image : " Sarocharu First look". The title is in clubbed form. So no gap should contain between those. So please delete the other three pages if possible madam.
Have a good day. Raghusri ( talk) Raghusri 16:47, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
Ok Diannaa no problem. Because your opinion is right. Raghusri ( talk) Raghusri 20:34, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi the article in question which requires full protection due to a merge. The last AFD said to discuss merging on talk page, yet no other parties, despite my invitations to those interested in the article (article notices/talk page messages etc). The article or the talk page hasn't changed since then, so putting it through AFD again would seem a little bureaucratic.
If you feel this is the incorrect procedure, please point me in the correct direction. Thank you.-- Otterathome ( talk) 15:32, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Hello Diannaa! I requested semi protection of Wreck it Ralph, which you declined. In response, I gave some examples of vandalism on the page. I also pointed out that there are many WP:FILMPLOT violations and additions of unsourced content if you read the page history. Could you please take another look? Thanks! Vacation nine 04:13, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi again Diannaa, WP:UAA currently has 16 non-answered requests however it isn't being auto-tagged with Admin backlog which the page is supposed to do automatically when there are more than 10 requests. I made a post on the talk here. Any idea what is happening, and could you possibly get to the requests if you have time? I hope I'm not asking too much of you :) Vacation nine 04:34, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi, you recently semi-protected my talk page due to IP vandalism. Now, that the same IP is going around reverting my edits and posting the same idiocy in edit summaries that he/she was doing on my User-page and then Talk-page. I was wondering if you could perhaps block him/her. If this continues, what do you suggest I do, because this IP appears with different address every day.-- Harout72 ( talk) 00:13, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa. I was chatting to RexxS and HJ Mitchell at the weekend about Doom Bar, an article I was hoping to see at FA one day. One recommendation was that I transformed the reference system to be clearer, perhaps {{ sfn}} and your name came up as someone who might be able to help out with this - in the absence of an editor who used to be very good at such things. I was wondering if you had any thoughts on how best to go about updating something like this. WormTT( talk) 13:53, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Ernest Shackleton and
John Diefenbaker are good examples of what can be done with this system. Note for technical reasons we can't put a sfn template inside an efn template if the notes are moved to a separate section down below. But we can put in <ref> tags or use {{

Hey Diannaa, I tried to reason with Kww, but he's not being very responsive or helpful. I'm going to post the thread so you can get a clear understanding of the request. Another editor actually agreed with me. Please take a look and tell me what you think. Thanks :)-- CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 00:01, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi Nathan. I have changed your copy-paste to a link to the conversation in question. Sorry, but I my opinion is that the location of the article needs to be left as-is; the disambiguation page at All I Want for Christmas Is You got 15,527 hits in the last 30 days, and the actual article at All I Want for Christmas Is You (Mariah Carey song) got 25,200 hits in the last 30 days. That's partly because the present article title is linked to in over 500 other articles around the wiki. People are finding what they are looking for, because a lot of people are arriving from a different article, not from the disambiguation page. There's a bit of a maintenance nightmare in moving pages that are linked in over 500 different places; are you going to go around fixing all those broken links, locate all the double redirects and repair them, etc?? Is it worth it? I don't think so; it would take many hours to complete, and there's just too much else to do, and there's no compelling reason to move the article. That's my opinion on the content issue. Now I hope you don't mind, but I am gonna give you some unsolicited advice here: Telling Kww to get over himself, implying he as a hidden agenda, and saying he is biased, is not likely to get a friendly response from him or from any editor on this wiki. Best wishes, -- Dianna ( talk) 02:56, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa. I was under the impression that it was acceptable to link cite parameters such as |publisher, |newspaper, etc., however I was just reverted for similar links with an edit comment "removed links in refs". If I've not been linking correctly in references, then so be it; but what are the accepted practices for "linkable" parameters? Thanks in advance for any information you can provide. Cheers.

Hi Nathan. I have changed your copy-paste to a link to the conversation in question. Sorry, but I my opinion is that the location of the article needs to be left as-is; the disambiguation page at All I Want for Christmas Is You got 15,527 hits in the last 30 days, and the actual article at All I Want for Christmas Is You (Mariah Carey song) got 25,200 hits in the last 30 days. That's partly because the present article title is linked to in over 500 other articles around the wiki. People are finding what they are looking for, because a lot of people are arriving from a different article, not from the disambiguation page. There's a bit of a maintenance nightmare in moving pages that are linked in over 500 different places; are you going to go around fixing all those broken links, locate all the double redirects and repair them, etc?? Is it worth it? I don't think so; it would take many hours to complete, and there's just too much else to do, and there's no compelling reason to move the article. That's my opinion on the content issue. Now I hope you don't mind, but I am gonna give you some unsolicited advice here: Telling Kww to get over himself, implying he as a hidden agenda, and saying he is biased, is not likely to get a friendly response from him or from any editor on this wiki. Best wishes, -- Dianna ( talk) 02:56, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Could I get an express revision deletion to head off edit warring? Thanks very much for the ongoing image revdel work. -- Lexein ( talk) 10:15, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

I noticed your username commenting at an Arbcom discussion regarding civility. An effort is underway that would likely benifit if your views were included. I hope you will append regards at: Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Civility enforcement/Questionnaire Thank you for considering this request. My76Strat ( talk) 11:46, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Diannaa. I was under the impression that it was acceptable to link cite parameters such as |publisher, |newspaper, etc., however I was just reverted for similar links with an edit comment "removed links in refs". If I've not been linking correctly in references, then so be it; but what are the accepted practices for "linkable" parameters? Thanks in advance for any information you can provide. Cheers.
