Hello Kudpung,
As you probably know, I have been actively creating a large amount of articles for the Eulimidae family of gastropods, normally when I create these articles, I add the Caenogastropoda-stub tag to the bottom line. Now, I have thought about creating a stub tag especially for the Eulimidae family (much like with the Pyramidellidae family) but I have to admit, does this minor, misunderstood, unknown family of gastropods really need its own stub template? I'm not entirely sure, but I thought it would be best if I expressed my opinion to a more advanced contributor (you, of course). Even if creating a stub template for this family was acceptable, I would unfortunately have difficulty in proceeding with this action, due to my lack of programming and scripting skills, but nobody can be perfect at everything. Thanks, and have a splendid year while in 2013! Solo Toady ( talk) 09:19, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
Agreed with your recent comments at RfA ... your work identified a clear problem, that is, people aren't running as much as they used to (and they're not even doing all the good work that people do when they're getting ready to run), because they're not willing to run the gantlet. In fact, I think it's even a little broader than that ... I don't know many Wikipedians who are excited about getting thoroughly pawed over even by a lot of kind and knowledgeable Wikipedians ... and we're never going to enforce "kind and knowledgeable" at RfA. I'm hoping that Jimbo indicates that we've got time to put something together ... if so, one of the options I'd like to see us submit for his consideration is something that ... in some fair and non-disenfranchising way ... reduces the number of people commenting and voting. Do you have any favorite options at this point? - Dank ( push to talk) 15:35, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
If you can add anything to this list it would be appreciated. I think we need to talk about a central repository for this splintered discussion. Perhaps a notice in Signpost? -- Anthonyhcole ( talk) 14:06, 11 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung. A bit over a month ago, you fully protected the page East Germany until April, due to edit disputes and 3R. Recently we've had a lot of discussion on the talk page about how to improve the article, specifically about rewriting its lede. Good progress towards consensus! Latest draft lede has been approved by editors who disagreed strongly with each other about earlier ones. What to do now? I've considered putting in an "Edit Protected" request... However, because the changes we're discussing are quite extensive, I think it would probably be better to remove the full protection to enable ongoing tweaks.

Thanks for uploading File:StratColl logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot ( talk) 04:14, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi! You're getting this message because you are or have been a Wikipedia Ambassador. A new term is beginning for the United States and Canada Education Programs, and I wanted to give you an update on some important new information if you're interested in continuing your work this term as a Wikipedia Ambassador.
You may have heard a reference to a transition the education program is going through. This is the last term that the Wikimedia Foundation will directly run the U.S. and Canada programs; beginning in June, a proposed thematic organization is likely to take over organizing the program. You can read more about the proposal here.
Another major change in the program will take effect immediately. Beginning this term, a new MediaWiki education extension will replace all course pages and Ambassador lists. (See Wikipedia:Course pages and Help:Education Program extension for more details.) Included in the extension are online volunteer and campus volunteer user rights, which let you create and edit course pages and sign up as an ambassador for a particular course.
If you would like to continue serving as a Wikipedia Ambassador — even if you do not support a class this term — you must create an ambassador profile. If you're no longer interested in being a Wikipedia Ambassador, you don't need to do anything.
First, you need the relevant user rights for Online and/or Campus Ambassadors. (If you are an admin, you can grant the rights yourself, for you as well as other ambassadors.) Just post your rights request here, and we'll get you set up as quickly as possible.
Once you've got the ambassador rights, please set up at a Campus and/or Online Ambassador profile. You can do so at:
Going forward, the lists of Ambassadors at Special:CampusAmbassadors and Special:OnlineAmbassadors will be the official roster of who is an active Ambassador. If you would like to be an Ambassador but not ready to serve this term, you can un-check the option in your profile to publicly list it (which will remove your profile from the list).
After that, you can sign on to support courses. The list of courses will be at Special:Courses. (By default, this lists "Current" courses, but you can change the Status filter to "Planned" to see courses for this term that haven't reached their listed start date yet.)
As this is the first term we have used the extension, we know there will be some bugs, and we know the feature set is not as rich as it could be. (A big wave of improvements is already in the pipeline. And if you know MediaWiki and could help with code review, we'd love to have your help!) Please reach out to me (Sage Ross) with any complaints, bug reports, and feature suggestions. The basic features of the extension are documented at Wikipedia:Course pages, and you can see a tutorial for setting up and using them here.
In the past, the Education Program has had a pretty fragmented set of communication channels. We're trying to fix that. These are the recommended places to discuss and stay up-to-date on the education program:
We now have an online training for Ambassadors, which is intended to be both an orientation about the Wikipedia Ambassador role for newcomers and the manual for how to do the role. (There are parallel trainings for students and for educators as well.)
Please go through the training if you feel like you need a refresher on how a typical class is supposed to go and where the Ambassadors fit in, or if you want to review and help improve it. If there's something you'd like to see added, or other suggestions you have for it, feel free to edit the training and/or leave feedback. A primer on setting up and using course pages is included in the educators' training.
The Resources page of the training is the main place for Ambassador-related resources. If there's something you think is important as a resource that's not on there, please add it.
Finally, whether or not you work with any classes this term, I encourage you to post entries to the Trophy Case whenever you see excellent work from students or if you have great examples from past semesters. And, as always, let students (and other editors!) know when they do things well; a little WikiLove goes a long way!

Hello Kudpung. Please see this request. I understand you don't object if an uninvolved admin reviews the matter. How would you feel about a trial unprotection? That is, the page is unprotected and admins watch it for the first fourteen days. If an edit war starts up again, then we restore your full protection through April 13. Doing this experiment could provide useful data. If you agree, I'll do the unprotection. Thanks, EdJohnston ( talk) 18:25, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung. I've been meaning to put together a proposal on RfA clerking and start an RfC on it. I've finally gotten around to drafting a proposal. Would you mind taking a look at it and letting me know if you have any comments? I stole much of your work from WP:RFA2011, so much of it will look familiar. I believe that this idea should get an RFC, if only to gauge how much support there is for it. The ideas that were proposed in WP:RFA2011/CLERKS were good, but they never got a chance on an RFC. I'd like to correct that.
If there are any interested talk page stalkers, feel free to comment on it as well, although I'm not looking to start a lengthy debate on the subject. I would just like to get rid of any parts of the proposal that might cause widespread opposition to the RFC, add parts that might cause greater support, or otherwise format the proposal in a way that is easier to understand and/or expresses my ideas clearly.
You can find the draft proposal at User:Scottywong/RfA clerk proposal. Thanks. ‑Scottywong | confer _ 01:56, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Please refer to the talk page of this article to view my comment on your appreciation of the French article. Sorry for being so virulent, but I didn't like your remarks on the supposedly verbose and convoluted style of the model you were lucky enough to use in order to submit a decent article in lieu of its paltry predecessor. It would be appropriate that the authors of the article in English acknowledge their debt by a mention of their main source, as is the norm (I have tried, but have no access to the English model). Moreover, you don't seem to know that the translation was done whilst the French article was still in the making. It was amended and made much terser soon afterwards and is now a featured article.
This being said, all the best for the New Year. With all good wishes,

Hi, I don't think we've ever talked to each other, but I just wanted to say, thank you very much for your work at Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled. What you are doing helps to protect Wikipedia. In my opinion, it's very bad for Wikipedia when crappy stubs with errors and no references are not patrolled, and I think autopatrolled should never be given to people who see it as a "right" or a "trophee" for themselves, or who refuse to take any responsibility for the stubs they created and would rather go off and create many more that are just as bad, instead of going and fixing the ones they've already created. Especially when this is pointed out to them. I just wanted to say thanks. Cheers, Azylber ( talk) 15:49, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
This one comes conveniently following the theme of the post above. Just wanted to say thanks for your recent feedback regarding the articles I've created. It was all completely true, and the real facepalm moment for me was just now realizing the naked URL thing... Well, we should learn by mistakes.

Hello,
I tried to leave an addition to the Old Boys section of the school entry. My name is Alastair F Jones, and I attended the school from 1954-60. In my class for the first few years was Terry Bond, who went on to become drummer in the 1960's band The Rockin' Berries. I thought it would make a nice addition to the page, but you have removed it. I have nothing to 'cite' except that I was at the school with Terry in the 1950s. If you look at The Rockin' Berries entry in Wikipaedia, you will find Terry's name mentioned.

If anyone does disruptive editing such as vandalism, spamming, and violates wikipedias biography's of living persons, then am I allowed to warn that user if that user does those things or I am not allowed until I make 1,000 edits? -- Starship9000 ( talk) 01:42, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
Hello Kudpung. The article, Temsah, appears that it should not be on wikipedia. Please check and see if I should propose the article for deletion or request speedy deletion once I make 1,000 edits. Please do leave a message on my talk page. Remember to check the article and see if I should propose it for deletion or request speedy deletion and let me know if I should propose it for deletion or request speedy deletion. Good Luck! -- Starship9000 ( talk) 15:38, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Kudpung, I will go through what you wrote, as I do not understand the logic behind the comments...
Blatantly self-promotional beyond what is expected for users to say about themselves.
User has made only one edit outside his user page, and that was to ask for autoconfirmed rights in order to add more of his work to his user page.
Wikipedia is not LinkedIn, Facebook, MySpace, or a Google profile

There are some Worcestershire images in Commons:Category:Lines family sketchbook which you might enjoy, or whose subjects you might be able to identify. When are you next over here, BTW? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 15:30, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi, I don't think we've ever talked to each other, but I just wanted to say, thank you very much for your work at Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled. What you are doing helps to protect Wikipedia. In my opinion, it's very bad for Wikipedia when crappy stubs with errors and no references are not patrolled, and I think autopatrolled should never be given to people who see it as a "right" or a "trophee" for themselves, or who refuse to take any responsibility for the stubs they created and would rather go off and create many more that are just as bad, instead of going and fixing the ones they've already created. Especially when this is pointed out to them. I just wanted to say thanks. Cheers, Azylber ( talk) 15:49, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
This one comes conveniently following the theme of the post above. Just wanted to say thanks for your recent feedback regarding the articles I've created. It was all completely true, and the real facepalm moment for me was just now realizing the naked URL thing... Well, we should learn by mistakes.
I've fixed the URL issue now (I hope), but I would also like to hear if you have more suggestions on how to improve the articles. Of course, I will be expanding most of them over the time, little by little. Widr ( talk) 16:38, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
I have noticed that you're listed as an admin that can recall TParis ) User:TParis/Recall), so I have to ask, are you friendly with this guy? Could you do me a favour and take a look at his stunning contributions to ongoing issues between Epeefleche and I, and perhaps... I don't know, send us back to our corners?
Take a look at, particularly:

Hello,
I tried to leave an addition to the Old Boys section of the school entry. My name is Alastair F Jones, and I attended the school from 1954-60. In my class for the first few years was Terry Bond, who went on to become drummer in the 1960's band The Rockin' Berries. I thought it would make a nice addition to the page, but you have removed it. I have nothing to 'cite' except that I was at the school with Terry in the 1950s. If you look at The Rockin' Berries entry in Wikipaedia, you will find Terry's name mentioned.
Alastair Jones
If the page breaks rules and guidelines then the page has to be removed. I am good with that, rules are rules. Thank you Kudpung for taking the time reply. I understand your job is a difficult one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by William Esdale ( talk • contribs) 18:06, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
I've been making some progress on Snuggle development recently and I could use your feedback. Specifically, I've created a work log that I plan to update every time I get a chance to work on Snuggle. My intention is that you'll be able to watch that page to track my progress so I can get your feedback on features when they are early in development. The most recent entry (also the only entry) discusses new functionality for interacting with newcomers via Snuggle. I posted some mockups in the work log that show how I imagine the new features to work and I could use some feedback before I start writing the code. Thanks! -- EpochFail( talk • work) 20:29, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Hey Kudpung - this is to notify you that there is a discussion starting on the Article Feedback RfC talkpage that has ramifications for the RfC itself. Your input is much appreciated :). Thanks! and apologies if I've missed anyone Okeyes (WMF) ( talk) 16:43, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung, I've got a French article that I'd like to be translated to English. Originally I've made a request at WP:HD, but an editor pointed me to a list of French-to-English translators, where I found you (pleasant surprise). Could you have a look at the article? Cheers -- Sp33dyphil © hat ontributions 02:20, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
FWIW, I've attempted to transfer some of the info to Dassault Rafale -- do you mind having a look at the French article to make sure I've not misunderstood anything? -- Sp33dyphil © hat ontributions 08:48, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
