A so-called "administrator" is continually breaking the Ezekiel Jackson article in order to WP:WIN and make a WP:POINT. It's very unfortunate. Perhaps you could have a look at the article history, and restore it to how it was before 78.146.171.227 touched it. Thanks. 216.31.12.134 ( talk) 08:20, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
Hello - I felt that this incident is notable as this was a very usual event between two prominent rival radio show hosts who nearly came to blows. Perhaps this incident is not notable enough to go on Uygur's page. However, I feel this is notable enough for the TYT page as it is a prominent event backed up by multiple sources and video evidence. Therefore I feel it complies with BLP in context and is notable enough for the TYT page but on reflection not on Cenk's page. This is how the information on the relevant articles are right now. 141.241.26.20 ( talk) 11:00, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Hi, LM2000. I'm gonna retire from Wikipedia. I want to thanks this years supporting and helping me in this website. Lately, it's a pain to edit in Wikipedia, every time is a discussion, a problem, a lot of dumbass editions (Edge common name is Adam Copeland, Bayley without moves, background in PPVs). Also, the user I respect don't edit that much, like Starship, MJ, Ribbon Salminen... so I prefer to stay away from Wikia. Maybe I will return.

Hi. Thanks for the info. However, JMichael wasn't my only problem in recent months. A lot of editions I made were deleted and there is a lot of endless discussions. The Edge name change, Bayley signature moves, the discussion about the storylines at Royal Rumble, including a "wrestling is scripted" in the Mixed Match Challenge, Treker trying to change the C&A section just because he thinks the titles aren't real titles... it's not fun anymore. I make sporadic editions, but i'm not full time right now. -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 15:13, 13 February 2018 (UTC)

The Portals WikiProject has been rebooted.
You are invited to join, and participate in the effort to revitalize and improve the Portal system and all the portals in it.
There are sections on the WikiProject page dedicated to tasks (including WikiGnome tasks too), and areas on the talk page for discussing the improvement and automation of the various features of portals.
Many complaints have been lodged in the RfC to delete all portals, pointing out their various problems. They say that many portals are not maintained, or have fallen out of date, are useless, etc. Many of the !votes indicate that the editors who posted them simply don't believe in the potential of portals anymore.
It's time to change all that. Let's give them reasons to believe in portals, by revitalizing them.
The best response to a deletion nomination is to fix the page that was nominated. The further underway the effort is to improve portals by the time the RfC has run its course, the more of the reasons against portals will no longer apply. RfCs typically run 30 days. There are 19 days left in this one. Let's see how many portals we can update and improve before the RfC is closed, and beyond.
A healthy WikiProject dedicated to supporting and maintaining portals may be the strongest argument of all not to delete.
We may even surprise ourselves and exceed all expectations. Who knows what we will be able to accomplish in what may become the biggest Wikicollaboration in years.
Let's do this.
See ya at the WikiProject!
Sincerely, —
The Transhumanist

The RfC discussion to eliminate portals was closed May 12, with the statement "There exists a strong consensus against deleting or even deprecating portals at this time." This was made possible because you and others came to the rescue. Thank you for speaking up.
By the way, the current issue of the Signpost features an article with interviews about the RfC and the Portals WikiProject.
I'd also like to let you know that the Portals WikiProject is working hard to make sure your support of portals was not in vain. Toward that end, we have been working diligently to innovate portals, while building, updating, upgrading, and maintaining them. The project has grown to 80 members so far, and has become a beehive of activity.
Our two main goals at this time are to automate portals (in terms of refreshing, rotating, and selecting content), and to develop a one-page model in order to make obsolete and eliminate most of the 150,000 subpages from the portal namespace by migrating their functions to the portal base pages, using technologies such as selective transclusion. Please feel free to join in on any of the many threads of development at the WikiProject's talk page, or just stop by to see how we are doing. If you have any questions about portals or portal development, that is the best place to ask them.
If you would like to keep abreast of developments on portals, keep in mind that the project's members receive updates on their talk pages. The updates are also posted here, for your convenience.
Again, we can't thank you enough for your support of portals, and we hope to make you proud of your decision. Sincerely, — The Transhumanist 09:58, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

Hello LM2000, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages!
Overall the June backlog drive was a success, reducing the last 3,000 or so to below 500. However, as expected, 90% of the patrolling was done by less than 10% of reviewers.
Since the drive closed, the backlog has begun to rise sharply again and is back up to nearly 1,400 already. Please help reduce this total and keep it from raising further by reviewing some articles each day.

Thanks for uploading File:Sports Entertainment Xtreme.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 17:46, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi. I have a question about Connor's article. In the lead, I read "he posthumously received the inaugural Warrior Award at the 2015 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony." However, in the body I read "He posthumously received the award on March 28 and was inducted by Daniel Bryan and Dana Warrior". It0s the only part where I read that Connor was inducted in the Hall of Fame. In fact, the source Nº 13 doesn't metion him being inducted, just receiving an award. The same source states "Being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame on Saturday, March 28 are the Macho Man Randy Savage, Alundra Blayze, The Bushwhackers (Luke and Butch), Rikishi and Arnold Schwarzenegger." So, I think "inducted" is the wrong word. -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 22:35, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Hello LM2000,
This year's award for the Reviewer of the Year goes to Onel5969. Around on Wikipedia since 2011, their staggering number of 26,554 reviews over the past twelve months makes them, together with an additional total of 275,285 edits, one of Wikipedia's most prolific users.
See also the list of top 100 reviewers.
The backlog is now approaching 5,000, and still rising. There are around 640 holders of the NPR flag, most of whom appear to be inactive. The 10% of the reviewers who do 90% of the work could do with some support especially as some of them are now taking a well deserved break.
At #1 position, the Community Wishlist poll closed on 3 December with a resounding success for NPP, reminding the WMF and the volunteer communities just how critical NPP is to maintaining a clean encyclopedia and the need for improved tools to do it. A big 'thank you' to everyone who supported the NPP proposals. See the results.
Due to a number of changes having been made to the feed since this three-minute video was created, we have been asked by the WMF for feedback on the video with a view to getting it brought up to date to reflect the new features of the system. Please leave your comments here, particularly mentioning how helpful you find it for new reviewers.

Your survey Link: https://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9S3JByWf57fXEkR?Q_DL=56np5HpEZWkMlr7_9S3JByWf57fXEkR_MLRP_a9PhchBw5y39ASp&Q_CHL=gl
I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.
Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs ( talk) 16:12, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
The Portals WikiProject has been rebooted.
You are invited to join, and participate in the effort to revitalize and improve the Portal system and all the portals in it.
There are sections on the WikiProject page dedicated to tasks (including WikiGnome tasks too), and areas on the talk page for discussing the improvement and automation of the various features of portals.
Many complaints have been lodged in the RfC to delete all portals, pointing out their various problems. They say that many portals are not maintained, or have fallen out of date, are useless, etc. Many of the !votes indicate that the editors who posted them simply don't believe in the potential of portals anymore.
It's time to change all that. Let's give them reasons to believe in portals, by revitalizing them.
The best response to a deletion nomination is to fix the page that was nominated. The further underway the effort is to improve portals by the time the RfC has run its course, the more of the reasons against portals will no longer apply. RfCs typically run 30 days. There are 19 days left in this one. Let's see how many portals we can update and improve before the RfC is closed, and beyond.
A healthy WikiProject dedicated to supporting and maintaining portals may be the strongest argument of all not to delete.
We may even surprise ourselves and exceed all expectations. Who knows what we will be able to accomplish in what may become the biggest Wikicollaboration in years.
Let's do this.
See ya at the WikiProject!
Sincerely, —
The Transhumanist

Hi, LM. I saw you added the category PW executives at Paige's article. However, do you think it's right? Paige role as GM doesn't include real power behind the scenes, she is just a kayfabe authority figure. I think the category should be used with real executives, no kayfabe ones.-- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 21:39, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

The RfC discussion to eliminate portals was closed May 12, with the statement "There exists a strong consensus against deleting or even deprecating portals at this time." This was made possible because you and others came to the rescue. Thank you for speaking up.
By the way, the current issue of the Signpost features an article with interviews about the RfC and the Portals WikiProject.
I'd also like to let you know that the Portals WikiProject is working hard to make sure your support of portals was not in vain. Toward that end, we have been working diligently to innovate portals, while building, updating, upgrading, and maintaining them. The project has grown to 80 members so far, and has become a beehive of activity.
Our two main goals at this time are to automate portals (in terms of refreshing, rotating, and selecting content), and to develop a one-page model in order to make obsolete and eliminate most of the 150,000 subpages from the portal namespace by migrating their functions to the portal base pages, using technologies such as selective transclusion. Please feel free to join in on any of the many threads of development at the WikiProject's talk page, or just stop by to see how we are doing. If you have any questions about portals or portal development, that is the best place to ask them.
If you would like to keep abreast of developments on portals, keep in mind that the project's members receive updates on their talk pages. The updates are also posted here, for your convenience.
Again, we can't thank you enough for your support of portals, and we hope to make you proud of your decision. Sincerely, — The Transhumanist 09:58, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

I put a speedy deletion on it noting the three deletion discussions, not noticing that you had already put a speedy on it. Another user removed it making some ridiculous claim (see the edit summary in the history of the article). Could you please send it back to AfD?

Per the discussion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John Iadarola (2nd nomination) as Iadarola's career has grown, I have added additional sources covering his primary hosting of "True North" and "The Damage Report" series with additional non TYT sources. This is in addition to his daily hosting duties on the TYT main show. I have reactivated the article to mainspace. Trackinfo ( talk) 07:51, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Hello LM2000, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages!
Overall the June backlog drive was a success, reducing the last 3,000 or so to below 500. However, as expected, 90% of the patrolling was done by less than 10% of reviewers.
Since the drive closed, the backlog has begun to rise sharply again and is back up to nearly 1,400 already. Please help reduce this total and keep it from raising further by reviewing some articles each day.

Thanks for uploading File:Sports Entertainment Xtreme.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -- B-bot ( talk) 17:46, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Connor Michalek, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Posterior fossa ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hi. I have a question about Connor's article. In the lead, I read "he posthumously received the inaugural Warrior Award at the 2015 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony." However, in the body I read "He posthumously received the award on March 28 and was inducted by Daniel Bryan and Dana Warrior". It0s the only part where I read that Connor was inducted in the Hall of Fame. In fact, the source Nº 13 doesn't metion him being inducted, just receiving an award. The same source states "Being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame on Saturday, March 28 are the Macho Man Randy Savage, Alundra Blayze, The Bushwhackers (Luke and Butch), Rikishi and Arnold Schwarzenegger." So, I think "inducted" is the wrong word. -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 22:35, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
I haven't uploaded anything to Commons in quite some time, as I'm significantly less than thrilled with Upload Wizard or any of the other alternatives. However, I did browse those photos and was wondering if you were going to upload any others. I recognized Steve Keirn, Jimmy Garvin, Killer Karl Kox, King Curtis Iaukea, Jos Leduc and one of the Irwin brothers among the other photos. I'll put it on the to-do list if you're not going to bother. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 01:42, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

Hello LM2000, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages!
The New Page Feed currently has 2700 unreviewed articles, up from just 500 at the start of July. For a while we were falling behind by an average of about 40 articles per day, but we have stabilised more recently. Please review some articles from the back of the queue if you can (Sort by: 'Oldest' at Special:NewPagesFeed), as we are very close to having articles older than one month.

Hello, LM2000. Voting in the 2018 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23.59 on Sunday, 3 December. All users who registered an account before Sunday, 28 October 2018, made at least 150 mainspace edits before Thursday, 1 November 2018 and are not currently blocked are eligible to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
If you wish to participate in the 2018 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 18:42, 19 November 2018 (UTC)

Hello LM2000,
This year's award for the Reviewer of the Year goes to Onel5969. Around on Wikipedia since 2011, their staggering number of 26,554 reviews over the past twelve months makes them, together with an additional total of 275,285 edits, one of Wikipedia's most prolific users.
See also the list of top 100 reviewers.
The backlog is now approaching 5,000, and still rising. There are around 640 holders of the NPR flag, most of whom appear to be inactive. The 10% of the reviewers who do 90% of the work could do with some support especially as some of them are now taking a well deserved break.
At #1 position, the Community Wishlist poll closed on 3 December with a resounding success for NPP, reminding the WMF and the volunteer communities just how critical NPP is to maintaining a clean encyclopedia and the need for improved tools to do it. A big 'thank you' to everyone who supported the NPP proposals. See the results.
Due to a number of changes having been made to the feed since this three-minute video was created, we have been asked by the WMF for feedback on the video with a view to getting it brought up to date to reflect the new features of the system. Please leave your comments here, particularly mentioning how helpful you find it for new reviewers.

Hi, LM. How are you? I just found Beth Phoenix is gonna be inducted in the George Tragos Hall of Fame. [2] However, she is in the table.
