I didn't write the information, I just took what was there, worded it better and wikified it. The discrepancy was probably an typo on my part. Thanks for pointing it out. Vidioman 01:13, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
You should tag all talk pages of articles related to Manitoba with the {{ WPMAN}} template, and assess them if possible. If you don't know how to assess, that's fine, just don't worry about it and someone will come along soon enough and assess them per the assessment scheme.

Hello, I noticed that you listed yourself as interested in being adopted, so if you'd like, I am willing to take up the task. Just respond to me on my talk page either way. -- Cielomobile talk / contribs 22:01, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Looking over the article that you're reviewing, here are my thoughts:
I'd probably fail the article rather than just put it on hold, for the reasons outlined above. -- Cielomobile talk / contribs 03:39, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
Regarding the use of wikilinks only once per article, you can view the guideline at Wikipedia:Wikilinks.
I still think that the story is noteworthy. Like I said, it is supported by multiple reliable sources (like MSNBC), so it satisfies WP:V and my own personal criteria for inclusion. Remember that WP:NOT is a guideline and is not set in stone. Other users might argue for the article's deletion, but again, it is my sense that it would fairly easily survive an AfD. -- Cielomobile talk / contribs 20:42, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
John, I noticed that your GA review of Death of Lana Stempien hasn't seen any activity in a while. Could you either fail or pass the article, or if you don't want to proceed, remove the "GAReview" notice from the GAC page? Thanks. Mike Christie (talk) 13:00, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
I feel that you've made your way through the adoption process pretty well, and that you're now ready for graduation. Congratulations! I'll still be around if you have any questions, of course. -- Cielomobile talk / contribs 20:27, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
Hello JohnJardine! Thank you for your contributions. I am a
bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is an
Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add
reliable,
secondary
sources to this article, it would greatly help us with the current
828 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{
unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (
consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot ( talk) 19:47, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
Hello, My name is Natalia Ioana Olaru and I am a final year master student in the Corporate Communication programme at the Aarhus School of Business, Aarhus University, Denmark. I am currently working on my final paper on the topic of user motivation to create content on collaborative media websites, the focus being Wikipedia. As a sample I chose the English and Danish portals. I would like to invite you for an online interview on the topic of what motivates you, to participate in editing and creating articles for this platform. I plan on doing the actual interviews in the period between 1st and the 15th of May via Skype, MSN or Yahoo Messenger. I am, however, open to other channels of communication too. Please let me know if you would like to participate in this interview and the preferred channel.
Thank you, Natalia Olaru Email: natalia.ioana.olaru@gmail.com MulgaEscu ( talk) 13:49, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia is celebrating its 15th birthday on January 15, 2016. I have thought for a while that it would be neat to meet some local wikipedians. According to the wikipedians in Winnipeg or Wikipedians in Manitoba category you are one of us. I am contacting people in this category to say: Let's celebrate this milestone. If you know other wikipedians, please ask them to join in as well.
I am posting this to your talk page as a transclude so that any updates will show up automatically.
Hope to see you there! Tenbergen ( talk) 04:46, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
One other Winnipeg Wikipedian showed up, in addition to a number of regular skullspace members. It was nice to actually talk to someone else who has worked with Mediawiki and actually "gets" transclusion. Cake was eaten! Tenbergen ( talk) 06:37, 16 January 2016 (UTC)
Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada/The 10,000 Challenge is up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge for the UK which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. If you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Canada like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1600 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for Canada but fuelled by a contest such as The North America Destubathon to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. I would like some support from Canadian wikipedians here to get the Challenge off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile! Cheers. -- MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 01:55, 22 November 2016 (UTC)
