You are invited to join WikiProject Haiti, an outreach effort which aims to support development of Haiti related articles in Wikipedia. We thought you might be interested, and hope that you will join us. If you'd like to join, please sign up here. L'union fait la force! Thanks! |
Hi MassiveEartha, I noticed that you may have interest in Haiti-related articles and thought I'd extend the invite to a completely revamped WikiProject Haiti. Cheers! Savvyjack23 ( talk) 06:47, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

Hello, MassiveEartha. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, James Noël (poet), for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want James Noël (poet) to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.
If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.
Thanks,

Hi. Thankyou for your participation in the challenge series or/and contests. In November The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There will be over $4000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. If this would appeal to you and you think you'd be interested in contributing new articles on women during this month for your region or wherever please sign up in the participants section. The articles done may also count towards the ongoing challenge. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate and raise money to buy books about women for others to use, this is also fine. Help would also be appreciated in drawing up the lists of missing articles. If you think of any missing articles please add them to the sub lists by continent at Missing articles. Thankyou, and if taking part, good luck!♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:49, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Royal African Company, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page George ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hello, MassiveEartha. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Carla Capalbo".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia
mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}
, {{db-draft}}
, or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. » Shadowowl | talk 17:42, 21 May 2018 (UTC)

Hello, MassiveEartha. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, James Noël (poet), for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want James Noël (poet) to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.
If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Hi. Thankyou for your participation in the challenge series or/and contests. In November The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There will be over $4000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. If this would appeal to you and you think you'd be interested in contributing new articles on women during this month for your region or wherever please sign up in the participants section. The articles done may also count towards the ongoing challenge. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate and raise money to buy books about women for others to use, this is also fine. Help would also be appreciated in drawing up the lists of missing articles. If you think of any missing articles please add them to the sub lists by continent at Missing articles. Thankyou, and if taking part, good luck!♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:49, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Royal African Company, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page George ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hello, MassiveEartha. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Carla Capalbo".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia
mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}
, {{db-draft}}
, or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. » Shadowowl | talk 17:42, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
