Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited World of the Unexplained museum, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Fisherman's Wharf and In Search Of ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Sure, no problem. The ANI thread is here: Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#User:Kavdiaravish/User:Stonex201. If you'd like the article restored to your userspace, that shouldn't be of a problem; just let me know. It's just that all of this user's articles have been mostly copyvios (from books, which makes them more difficult to detect), and what isn't tends to be not worth saving.

Thanks for uploading
File:Frieda and Diego Rivera.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 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) 04:31, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Hello Mercurywoodrose: In my opinion, your best bet would be to create a Chocolate WikiProject. People don't contribute to task forces much nowadays, as evidenced per (see revision histories):
I'm currently busy with other projects, articles, etc., but in the future I could help out with getting this going. I don't have enough time right now. A significant part of the process after a WikiProject is created is sending out invitations to users who would likely be interested (e.g. those who contribute to chocolate-related articles), in order to establish a member base.

I think that Portal:Coffee has potential for improvement and expansion. Not to criticize, but rather than nominating it for deletion, it may have been more functional to seek editors that may be interested in improving it. At any rate, I've undid the speedy deletion tags on each subpage (placed by another editor), so people can actually view the content that is already in place. The tag atop the portal suffices.

We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Hi there Mercurywoodrose! I've noticed you have yourself listed as a member of the Food and Drink Wikiproject. Unfortunately it looks like the project has been slowly sliding into inactivity except for a couple of people. That makes me a sad potato, and nobody likes a sad potato amirite?
If you'd like to turn my frown upside down, can you do two small things?
First off, go
here and add {{
Tick}} ( ) next to your name if you're still part of the project.
Second, go to the project talkpage and participate in a discussion about how to make the project more active, and how to go about making articles in our area of interest a lot better.
You don't want to make me cry, do you? Potatoes have a lot of eyes you know. So come on, join in! :)

However, I would like to have it changed from "Lexington Hills (Santa Clara, California)" to "Lexington Hills (Santa Clara County, California)", since "Santa Clara" could refer either to the city with that name, or to the county (and it should refer to the county).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited I Love You, California, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Sierra Nevada and Catalina Island ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!

A tag has been placed on File:Korean ten thousand won.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only," "non-derivative use" or "used with permission," it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. [2], and it was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19, or is not used in any articles. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 22:37, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Mercurywoodrose: The top-level importance page nominations page for WikiProject Food and drink hasn't received any input except from you (and thanks). Since I nominated the articles, it would be best for another person to close the entries that have received !votes and update the talk pages for the articles. A problem is that virtually nobody contributes to the page, and the way entries are all boxed-in on the project's main page seems to possibly discourage participation, like people just skim over them. If somebody doesn't close the entries that have actually received support, and update the articles accordingly, they will likely just sit there in limbo forever. Another editor insists that an uninvolved editor close entries, but when nobody comes along to actually do it, it is counterproductive. Perhaps the instructions on the page should be revised, because it isn't working out. Please respond at your convenience. Northamerica1000 (talk) 01:26, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think 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).

Hello Mercurywoodrose: In my opinion, your best bet would be to create a Chocolate WikiProject. People don't contribute to task forces much nowadays, as evidenced per (see revision histories):
I'm currently busy with other projects, articles, etc., but in the future I could help out with getting this going. I don't have enough time right now. A significant part of the process after a WikiProject is created is sending out invitations to users who would likely be interested (e.g. those who contribute to chocolate-related articles), in order to establish a member base. Northamerica1000 (talk) 09:43, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
A user just closed a category discussion stating that the nominator withdrawn the nomination. I can only see User:76.254.34.67 proposing to withdrawn the nomination. I am wrong? Curb Chain ( talk) 04:07, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

We have developed an exciting new version of SuggestBot’s interface with some cool features! Volunteer to be one of the first users to try it and help us make it better by answering a short survey! If you’re interested in participating, leave us a message on SuggestBot’s user talk page. Regards from Nettrom, SuggestBot’s caretaker. 18:52, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot’s recommendations. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information in the consent information sheet.
We have added information about the readership of the suggested articles using a Low/Medium/High scale which goes from Low

Good job trying to fix up that portal, please don't take my move for its deletion of it as anything untoward your hard work. -- Jeremy ( blah blah • I did it!) 06:02, 27 April 2013 (UTC) |
I think that Portal:Coffee has potential for improvement and expansion. Not to criticize, but rather than nominating it for deletion, it may have been more functional to seek editors that may be interested in improving it. At any rate, I've undid the speedy deletion tags on each subpage (placed by another editor), so people can actually view the content that is already in place. The tag atop the portal suffices.

IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Hi there Mercurywoodrose! I've noticed you have yourself listed as a member of the Food and Drink Wikiproject. Unfortunately it looks like the project has been slowly sliding into inactivity except for a couple of people. That makes me a sad potato, and nobody likes a sad potato amirite?
If you'd like to turn my frown upside down, can you do two small things?
First off, go
here and add {{
Tick}} ( ) next to your name if you're still part of the project.
Second, go to the project talkpage and participate in a discussion about how to make the project more active, and how to go about making articles in our area of interest a lot better.
You don't want to make me cry, do you? Potatoes have a lot of eyes you know. So come on, join in! :)

A tag has been placed on File:Korean ten thousand won.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only," "non-derivative use" or "used with permission," it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. [2], and it was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19, or is not used in any articles. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 22:37, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Mercurywoodrose: The top-level importance page nominations page for WikiProject Food and drink hasn't received any input except from you (and thanks). Since I nominated the articles, it would be best for another person to close the entries that have received !votes and update the talk pages for the articles. A problem is that virtually nobody contributes to the page, and the way entries are all boxed-in on the project's main page seems to possibly discourage participation, like people just skim over them. If somebody doesn't close the entries that have actually received support, and update the articles accordingly, they will likely just sit there in limbo forever. Another editor insists that an uninvolved editor close entries, but when nobody comes along to actually do it, it is counterproductive. Perhaps the instructions on the page should be revised, because it isn't working out. Please respond at your convenience. Northamerica1000 (talk) 01:26, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
