Dear Liz, the CfD about Judeo-Christian topics has been closed with a decision to keep the category. Apart from that, what is your opinion about my statement in this discussion that the category has been polluted with many articles that do not seem to belong there? Very specifically, would you mind if I would try a cleanup - or do you just entirely disagree with this statement? Marcocapelle ( talk) 21:12, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi Liz! Prompted in part by your question on Siko's talk page a while back, I'm going to be doing a series of webinars about getting started with wiki research. They're geared towards helping folks without previous experience with APIs, databases, programming languages, etc. learn the ropes of gathering and analyzing Wikimedia data. The first one is tomorrow at 1500 UTC (8am PDT). If you can't make it to that, the video will be posted on the Wikimedia Program Evaluation channel on YouTube as well. Hope to see you there! Cheers, Jmorgan (WMF) ( talk) 21:19, 15 July 2014 (UTC)
Hi, Liz. You have a link at User:Liz/Whiteboard3 for Toolserver replacements. That link is to User:Anna Frodesiak/Grey sandbox, which, as you can see, is now deleted. The new link is Wikipedia:Wikimedia Labs/Toolserver replacements. Best wishes, Anna Frodesiak ( talk) 23:16, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
Oops. A thousand pardons. I see the link to that sandbox was just from a userpage paste. Please disregard. :) Anna Frodesiak ( talk) 23:17, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi Liz, I just noticed that in March you tagged WP Optare as inactive, although your edit summary only stated that you were adding a Defaultsort parameter. [1] Can you remember whether you intentionally tagged it as inactive? If so, should we ask WP Buses to take it over, and redirect {{ WikiProject Optare}} accordingly? – Fayenatic L ondon 16:02, 4 July 2014 (UTC)

Please find that email, and follow those instructions. If you were not approved, did not recieve the email, or are having some other concern or question, please respond to this message at Wikipedia talk:JSTOR/Approved. Thanks much, Sadads ( talk) 21:17, 5 August 2014 (UTC) Note: You are recieving this message from an semi-automatically generated list.

Hello everyone! Hope you've all been having a great summer!
TheQ Editor recently proposed the idea of having another Backlog Drive in either September/October or November/December of this year. For those of you who have participated in the past two drives you know I was the one who organized them, however, come September, this will be my most important year in school so I will not be able to coordinate this drive (if it happens). TheQ Editor has volunteered to be a coordinator for the drive. If any of you would like to co-coordinator, please notify TheQ Editor on his talk page.
If you would be interested in participating in a Backlog Drive sometime before the end of this year, please notify TheQ Editor. Also, make sure to specify what month(s) work best for you.
At the time this message was sent out, the backlog was at 520 nominations. Since May, the backlog has been steadily increasing and we are currently near an all time high. Even though the backlog will not disappear over one drive, this drive can lead to several others which will (hopefully) lead to the day where there is no longer a backlog.
As always, the more participants, the better, and everyone is encouraged to participate!

Hello everyone! We hope you have all been having a great summer!
As we all know, the recent GAN Backlog Drives have not had any big impact on the backlog. Because of that, me (Dom497), Figureskatingfan, and TheQ Editor have worked on an idea that could possibly finally put a dent into the massive backlog. Now, I will admit, the idea isn't entirely ours as we have took the general idea of the WikiCup and brought it over to WikiProject Good Articles. But anyways, here's what we have in mind:
For all of you that do not know what the WikiCup is, it is an annual competition between several editors to see who can get the most Good Articles, Featured Article's, Did You Know's, etc. Based of this, we propose to you the GA Cup. This competition will only focus on reviewing Good articles.
For more info on the proposal, click here. As a FYI, the proposal page is not what the final product will look like (if you do go ahead with this idea). It will look very similar to WikiCup's page(s).
The discussion for the proposal will take place here. Please let us know if you are interested, have any concerns, things to consider, etc.

The final of the 2014 WikiCup begins in a few short minutes! Our eight finalists are listed below, along with their placement in Round 4:
We say goodbye to this year's semi-finalists.
Matty.007 (
submissions),
ThaddeusB (
submissions),
WikiRedactor (
submissions),
Figureskatingfan (
submissions),
Yellow Evan (
submissions),
Prism (
submissions) and
Cloudz679 (
submissions) have all performed well to reach this stage of the competition, and we hope they will all be joining us again next year.
There are two upcoming competitions unrelated to the WikiCup which may be of interest to those who receive this newsletter. The Stub Contest will run through September, and revolves around expanding stub articles, especially high-importance or old stubs. In addition, a proposal has been made for a new competition, the GA Cup, which the organisers plan to run next year. This competition is based on the WikiCup and aims to reduce the good article review backlog.
There is now a thread for brainstorming on how next year's WikiCup competition should work. Please come along and share your thoughts- What works? What doesn't work? What needs changing? Signups for next year's competition will be open soon; we will be in touch. If, at this stage of the competition, you are keen to help the with the WikiCup, please do what you can to participate in review processes. Our finalists will find things much easier if the backlogs at good article candidates, featured article candidates, featured picture candidates and the rest are kept at a minimum. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Hi Liz, I'm Kate from the 2C2P team. I'm reaching out because you'd recently closed the deletion discussion for 2C2P's article here.
The final decision was to merge with Alipay, but we would like to contest this as 2C2P's solutions are not being folded into the Alipay platform, nor is the 2C2P company itself being folded into Alipay. The Alipay+ cross-border wallet (a different service) will be linked more closely with 2C2P's existing payment gateway to expand the gateway's range of supported payment methods. (This is also what's actually mentioned in the source used for the mention of Alipay integration in the 2C2P article.)
We've also taken note of the original reason noted for nominating the article for deletion as well, which was the need for more substantial coverage, and would also like a chance to edit the article to adhere to Wiki policies better, rather than it being deleted.
We're new to Wikipedia so not quite sure how to proceed, but would the following steps be alright?
Apologies if this might not be the right space to raise this -- I'm still getting my bearings around here / familiarising myself with the processes around deletion, and we didn't have time to respond in the deletion discussion as it had already been closed when we saw it.

So we still have Ancient Egyptian Relgion/bagzzohchip in mainspace, but there's a draft in the userpage? Over to you, this one's beyond me... Best Alexandermcnabb ( talk) 06:44, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
I appreciate the help (and am looking for more help); I am sort of new at this and I did take a bold step in trying something new; I hope I am not causing too much chaos with a "bold move" of an article on my part The new user tool suggested I edit NVK Sakha and it did not look right to me having a long standing "multiple issues" tag, a dead link leading to the station (with little support to be found other than a listing of the broadcaster) a more inclusive article (reading the docs in WP:RM the terminology might be "primary topic.") from the same author existed; I liked the CSD tag because it allowed for easy reversion (simply by someone removing the tag). this way I would not be doing any harm as there was a process for evaluating something I considered to be radical.
I could start a talk page section or "subst:requested move|NewName|reason"
If I ask for a WP:RM what is the process?
I would guess the talk page is the easier path; with the move tag also driving a discussion? (If I go the RM path I will be flopping around a bit with the learning curve, but that is not a bad thing)
What would you do? I am leaning to notes in the talk page? I am just working my way through the complexity.. Flibbertigibbets ( talk) 10:32, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Hey there. I think this should have been relisted, as no one else has !voted since my evidence of notability. All there was was the opener of the AFD voicing their disagreement. More time should have been given to see if consensus would turn around after the sources I provided. MoonJet ( talk) 04:16, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
Hi Liz. Thanks for the welcome. I see you deleted the Talk page for the non-existent article Solar eclipse of April 8, which I'm sure was a reasonable decision based on some policy somewhere. I have to ask, though, whether you actually read the talk before deleting it? It consisted of a polite request for someone to create a redirect from the non-existent article page to the actual article: Solar eclipse of April 8, 2024. Even if you were 100% sure that such a redirect was a terrible idea, and 100% sure that the wiki shouldn't have such requests "littering" its Talk pages, it would have been more polite to leave a little note on the Talk page explaining your viewpoint, then waiting a few days to see if anyone disagreed. Could you please reconsider the request to add a redirect, since (as I explained on the Talk page) some software can't correctly parse URLs with commas in, and I think that a lot of people will be searching for "solar eclipse of april 8" next year, so this will help them find the right article. If you're happy to implement that redirect, then I'm happy for the Talk page to stay deleted. :-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 51.6.245.56 ( talk) 10:37, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
Please see Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2022 October 28; I moved the Hathorn version to a temp page, and then moved a rewrite into place from the temp page and requested for the copyvio version to be deleted. I also have no idea where the rewrite went, so I ask for that to be restored. Sennecaster ( Chat) 19:37, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
I'm about to REFUND Draft:Daniel Spellbound. I noticed it has a "promising draft" request that it not be G13 deleted, but that you had deleted it anyway. Was this intentional or accidental?

Could you explain what's plausible about including the phrase "(technical rename)" in a redirect title? * Pppery * it has begun... 03:12, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
this is mentioned in the hatnote at Enclosed C and has been so. I was fixing errors detected by Category:Missing redirects- but it isn't - the hatnote on Enclosed C has never mentioned the term anywhere. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:28, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

Good afternoon.
Would you please review the decision to delete this article (08:38, 27 October 2022). ProShare is a highly respected UK membership organisation, which lobbies the UK Government to foster Employee Share Ownership. Had I seen the proposal to delete this page in time I would have commented accordingly - it was only when I sought to refer to it today that I noticed the deletion.

.Hi Liz. I’d appreciate it if you reached out to my on my talk page or by email to ask about my intentions before stating in an AFD that I went to Discord in an attempt to bypass AFD. You see my name there regularly. You know or ought to know by now that I am respectful and behave in a way that shows I follow rules or at least do my best. I’ve only been a patroller for two months. If I drafted incorrectly it was due to error, not attempting to go around protocols. I’ve demonstrated nothing but politeness and the ability to take your quite regular feedback onboard, and will continue to do so. I do expect that you will assume I tried to do the right thing. “Bypassing” AFD is not the right thing. I would not do that intentionally. Thanks. MaxnaCarta ( talk) 22:40, 31 October 2022 (UTC)v

If you're happy to implement that redirect, then I'm happy for the Talk page to stay deleted. :-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 51.6.245.56 ( talk) 10:37, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
Please see Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2022 October 28; I moved the Hathorn version to a temp page, and then moved a rewrite into place from the temp page and requested for the copyvio version to be deleted. I also have no idea where the rewrite went, so I ask for that to be restored. Sennecaster ( Chat) 19:37, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
I'm about to REFUND Draft:Daniel Spellbound. I noticed it has a "promising draft" request that it not be G13 deleted, but that you had deleted it anyway. Was this intentional or accidental? (I'm fine either way... I'm more asking if I happen to come across this later on another article.) - UtherSRG (talk) 23:44, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for the heads-up on my talk page. Regards, Comte0 ( talk) 23:45, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
Howdy! Please take a look at the first "October 2022" heading (started by Qzd) at [2], in which a patently COI user is threatening to start suing for libel. Thanks! - Julietdeltalima (talk) 22:46, 30 October 2022 (UTC)
Could you explain what's plausible about including the phrase "(technical rename)" in a redirect title? * Pppery * it has begun... 03:12, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
this is mentioned in the hatnote at Enclosed C and has been so. I was fixing errors detected by Category:Missing redirects- but it isn't - the hatnote on Enclosed C has never mentioned the term anywhere. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:28, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

Good afternoon.
Would you please review the decision to delete this article (08:38, 27 October 2022). ProShare is a highly respected UK membership organisation, which lobbies the UK Government to foster Employee Share Ownership. Had I seen the proposal to delete this page in time I would have commented accordingly - it was only when I sought to refer to it today that I noticed the deletion.

Hello Liz,
As the paragraphs based on primary sources have been removed in the article Pontevedra Viva, and the two remaining sources cited in the References are secondary, could the tag
be removed ?
Thank you and best regards-- MJSB73MP ( talk) 17:54, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

.Hi Liz. I’d appreciate it if you reached out to my on my talk page or by email to ask about my intentions before stating in an AFD that I went to Discord in an attempt to bypass AFD. You see my name there regularly. You know or ought to know by now that I am respectful and behave in a way that shows I follow rules or at least do my best. I’ve only been a patroller for two months. If I drafted incorrectly it was due to error, not attempting to go around protocols. I’ve demonstrated nothing but politeness and the ability to take your quite regular feedback onboard, and will continue to do so. I do expect that you will assume I tried to do the right thing. “Bypassing” AFD is not the right thing. I would not do that intentionally. Thanks. MaxnaCarta ( talk) 22:40, 31 October 2022 (UTC)v

Would you kindly userfy Draft:Salal Credit Union? I was waiting for more media sources, I'd like to keep it around. Thanks. ☆ Bri ( talk) 20:43, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
