Hi IA, I hope this finds you well. My name is Matthew Roth and I'm a Storyteller working on the 2011 fundraiser with the Wikimedia Foundation in San Francisco. In past years, we've relied on Jimbo to carry the bulk of the fundraising weight and he's done very well helping us hit our yearly funding targets. This year, however, we're broadening the scope and reach of the fundraiser by incorporating more voices and different people on the funding banners and appeals that will start running full-time on November 7th. We're testing new messages and finding some really great results with editors and staff members of the Foundation. You can see the current progress of the tests here. I'm curious if you would want to participate in an interview with me as part of this process? The interviews usually last 60 minutes and involve a number of questions about your personal editing experiences, as well as general questions about Wikipedia and its impact in the world. You've been super active recently and we'd love to know more about what motivates you. Please let me know by emailing mroth (at) wikimedia.org. Thanks! Matthew (WMF) 22:08, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi there, I see that you moved a Mitch Brown to a "(footballer, born" from the "(footballer born". If you look at the Category:English footballers cat, you'll see that they never use a comma for this. I was intending to one day move any with commas back to the no comma form. It doesn't really bother me either way (hence I haven't done it) but I think this is probably one thing that we should align worldwide. Cheers, The-Pope ( talk) 06:45, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Herbie Screaigh 1933 (2).jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged.
