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

Hi wikifriend,
First I must say welcome. There is so much to do here and it's great having you volunteer to share knowledge.
Your user page has a name like this: User:Example. Its normal use is to give basic information, if you wish, about yourself or your Wikimedia-related activities. Although it helps other users know more about you, you don't have to say anything about yourself. You may wish to create a user page on Meta so that it will display on all Wikimedia projects where you have not created a local user page. You may click my username to see what is obtainable. (I'll love to know the inspiration behind your username though)
I'm a 21 year old human. You could drop me a message on my talk page or Wiki mail me for any questions or issues around Wikipedia. I could gladly adopt you. You may also get help from the rich resources here and here as well.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of people of self-identified Cherokee ancestry. Yuchitown ( talk) 17:57, 20 December 2018 (UTC)Yuchitown
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have recently shown interest in living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect: any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or any page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
I thought you should know, since you've been active at List of people of self-identified Cherokee ancestry and haven't been notified. – dlthewave ☎ 17:30, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
And I would credit you of course. I can just say I'm helping you. Indigenous girl ( talk) 22:44, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
Simply blanking reversions without an edit summary goes against policies on reversion. Given that you've left no edit summary, there is little I can address to assuage your concerns and I'm reverting. If you object to the reversion, please leave a reason either in the edit summary or talk page so we can discuss & work toward consensus. Buffs ( talk) 19:14, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
It's coming along well. Let me know if you want any input before it goes live. Otherwise I'll just wait 'til it's in mainspace. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 20:22, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
You are more than welcome to continue making quality contributions to Wikipedia. If your account is more than four days old and you have made at least 10 edits you can create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for Creation if you prefer.
Thank you for helping improve Wikipedia!

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of people of African-American and Native American ancestry is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of people of African-American and Native American ancestry until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Vizjim ( talk) 09:03, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
Hi - your input would be welcomed at User:Vizjim/Indigenous_American_identity.

Hi IG, would you be interested in helping me cleanup Sexual victimization of Native American women I have another project that is going to take priority today and just wanted to ask really quick before I have to get back to other important things. As far as I can tell the sources are there but there does appear to be a lot of WP:OR. I wanted to cleanup this thing up months ago but too much has happened that has slowed me down to clean it up. Again I'm not 100% sure what is properly sourced and what isn't, but it needs to be fixed or odds are the article will be deleted. Have a great day ttyl Mcelite ( talk) 20:05, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Scouting in Vermont, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Native Americans ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

I'm not sure I understand your question or why you placed it on Buffs' talk page. El_C 13:29, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
About editing the articles for which you have sourcing: IG, Your strength since you started on WP has been consulting as a cultural expert, along with your encyclopedic knowledge of where to find sources - in multiple fields. That's why those of us who ask you to come consult and collaborate do so. Adding sources to articles has always been a major part of what you've done here. While I truly understand your desire to de-escalate the drama here, I am also dismayed to see you suggesting that you refrain from editing due to it. This situation is not your fault. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 23:50, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
Does the article even look like it can be salvaged? Most of it is sourced to this site, which is not WP:RS as it cites zero sources; I don't think it's usable. I don't have time to go over all of it right now, but I think it might need to be gutted back to a stub, then merged into one of the other articles, like Native American religions. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 23:42, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
Thanks for stating your concern about my potential COI. How, from your perspective, should I resolve this? I am indeed teaching students to write for Wikipedia. The students choose their subjects; occasionally they draw from the website Dawnland Voices, which I help edit, but I do not receive any financial or other compensation for that work. Should I be noting my association with that project when I make edits on students' pages related to Dawnland authors? Am I incorrect in thinking that it is actually quite common for scholars to edit Wiki pages on topics where they have expertise? Ssenier ( talk) 00:53, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
You and your students still have a relationship in some manner with the individuals highlighted on your website and that violates COI. You can easily remedy this but either disclosing the COI (there are templates) or choosing not to create or edit articles where there is a conflict. It is of course common to edit in a field of one's expertise however conflicts of interest (having a connection to individuals who's articles you are contributing to for example) must be disclosed per Wikipedia policy. There are consequences if one does not. Indigenous girl ( talk) 01:24, 3 May 2019 (UTC) Thank you for the speedy reply! I will investigate these templates and try to retrace some of what I did!

Are you OK with my moving the translator's note up to the section on the linguistics? I should have checked with you first. Feel free to move it back, or I will, if you want it in chronological order. It seemed logical to me to put it with the other linguistics notes, for the record of anyone checking those sources. With all the chaos, tl;dr, and insertion of out-of-order comments on that page, it's been hard to keep track of anything. It was out of character for me to do that without asking. I was tired and frustrated with the disruption that had gone on. My apologies. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 19:27, 10 July 2019 (UTC)

I listened to the audio file. It was a radio interview, despite being listed as a video. I was able to source some content from that. But I'm surprised I couldn't find any reviews or other third-party coverage. I didn't necessarily believe it was "exploitative" - it's just without any significant coverage to use for sourcing how can we know?

Hi. I'd like to invite you to contribute to an article on working to create space for Indigenous history and culture on Wikipedia. The article will be simultaneously published in an academic journal and on the Wikiproject if project members agree. Your insights would be extremely valuable. I'm going to issue a similar invitation to some members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America, and would welcome additional suggestions for people to invite. The article is in a very early stage of planning as my hope is that it will be fully collaborative and that everyone who wants to will have a hand in designing it (and, of course, Indigenous voices should be prioritised rather than my own).

For excellent and insightful identification of WP:BIAS problems on Wikipedia's coverage of Indigenous creation myths, we owe you a debt of gratitude. jps ( talk) 19:46, 15 July 2019 (UTC) |
I have started a discussion that concerns you at AN. GoldenRing ( talk) 14:48, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
I forget, what's the deal with this: File:Flag of the Wabanaki Confederacy.png. It's been added and removed (and added and removed) from articles. If it's bogus, I'll put it up for deletion. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 18:19, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Saxifrage. Lepricavark ( talk) 18:14, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
I listened to the audio file. It was a radio interview, despite being listed as a video. I was able to source some content from that. But I'm surprised I couldn't find any reviews or other third-party coverage. I didn't necessarily believe it was "exploitative" - it's just without any significant coverage to use for sourcing how can we know? Let me know if you know of any other coverage of this. - CorbieVreccan ☊ ☼ 20:03, 31 October 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for your post at St. Joseph's Indian School. I think it was pretty clearly a talk page post and so I moved it from the article to talk. IMO the goal is an accurate and informative article. It would be great to have you join the party there. :-) Sincerely, North8000 ( talk) 22:03, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
As I posted on the talk page, there's some significant information on the school's website. I also have a couple of other things to check but it won't be for a bit. Indigenous girl ( talk) 12:34, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
I lost access to the email I had months ago. I had created it just for Wikipedia. I had to create a new one and now have it linked. Please just forward or send to my new email. Thank you and I apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused. I didn't want you to think I wasn't responding to you. -- ARose Wolf 15:54, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
Do you want me to set up an archive bot for your page, to automatically archive old discussions? - CorbieVreccan ☊ ☼ 00:30, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi - I was assessing the article Toasted Sister and found a deletion notice from you on the talk page - it looks like you may not have completed the AfD process so the discussion never took place? Thought you might want to continue with the nomination (or remove the message?) Vizjim ( talk) 20:05, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
Hi. I'd like to invite you to contribute to an article on working to create space for Indigenous history and culture on Wikipedia. The article will be simultaneously published in an academic journal and on the Wikiproject if project members agree. Your insights would be extremely valuable. I'm going to issue a similar invitation to some members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America, and would welcome additional suggestions for people to invite. The article is in a very early stage of planning as my hope is that it will be fully collaborative and that everyone who wants to will have a hand in designing it (and, of course, Indigenous voices should be prioritised rather than my own).
If you are interested, or have further questions, please sign up here or leave a comment on this subpage's talk: User:Vizjim/IndigenousWikipedia. Regards and respect, Vizjim ( talk) 09:21, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard regarding a BLP issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Jacqueline Keeler. Thank you. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 03:08, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi IG, did not mean to step on your toes with Lenape, but I believe the previous version was more balanced. I'm done if you need to make changes. Thanks, Yuchitown ( talk) 22:19, 22 February 2023 (UTC)Yuchitown

You seem to be getting a harder time at deletion review than you deserve. Sending this emergency kitten, hope this is not too stressful.
