Your page User:Nat/Recall/Main has Multiple unclosed formatting tags lint errors, one of only 3 pages in English Wikipedia with this error.
If you would kindly replace the markup on that page with
{{User:Nat/Title|Requests for Recall}} {{User:Nat/ubx/default}} <br><br><br><br><br><br><br> <div style="text-align: center;"><big><big><big><big>'''Are you sure want to continue?'''</big></big></big></big> <br><br><br><br> <big><big><big><big><big><big>'''[[User:Nat/Recall|Yup]]''' | '''[[User:Nat|Nope]]'''</big></big></big></big></big></big></div>
It will fix all of the lint errors directly on this page and preserve the appearance. There will still be low-priority lint errors coming in from {{User:Nat/ubx/default}}
, but that is not as important as the high-priority Multiple unclosed formatting tags error on this page. —

Hi Nat,
Just would like to check, I understand the file copyright owner has sent in an email using the template provided by Wikipedia. Could I just verify why it was still updated as having insufficient permissions by you, and how I should rectify this? For your reference: /info/en/?search=File:Lim_Wee_Kiak_NDP.jpeg
Thanks so much Nat! Wamprong ( talk) 05:57, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

Hey Nat, thanks for your response. I do not have a personal relationship with KzeeBigname, neither do I seek to promote a particular website.
I would have added different media links if others were able. But since that was not the case, I used the available ones.
I may be a newcomer on Wikipedia, but as a writer, I write from a neutral point of view!
I made an error in one of my responses to your colleague Nathaniel Tang when he asked to provide" by which reason you are representative as stated and authorized to issue this permission."
I am sorry that I did not address this issue earlier and let it reach this far.
I take full responsibility for my action, which occurred due to me rushing to answer your colleague questions without properly deciphering it.
However, I hope you take into consideration the clarity I provided.
Thanks for your understanding and best regard.
Dopoe,Jr ( talk) 15:12, 14 June 2020 (UTC) Hi Nat
I haven't heard from you since I responded to the comment you left on the KzeeBigname article I submitted for review. I am writing to know if my clarification has been fully comprehended and accepted.

all discussions about pharmaceutical drug prices and pricing and for edits adding, changing, or removing pharmaceutical drug prices or pricing from articles.
I often clean up articles from WP:Database reports; one of these lists pages with too many maintenance templates. Usually this is the work of an enthusiastic new editor who wants to make sure that all possible issues in an article are addressed. I welcome them, explain that this isn't how things are generally done, and give them links to WP:OVERTAGGING and other helpful pages.
So I was surprised to see this from an experienced editor. Readers have to scroll halfway down the page to reach the beginning of the article, and from the point of view of someone who fixes problems noted in maintenance tags, my first instinct is to find another article to work on. In that way, it's self-defeating, or as WP:Responsible tagging puts it, 'Adding more tags usually results in all of them being ignored'. When I see pages like this, I remove the less urgent tags, e.g. Sections and Weasel. If there are related tags such as Autobiography and COI, I keep the more general one. That way, the articles are more likely to get the attention they need. I hope you'll be more sparing with maintenance templates. Cheers, BlackcurrantTea ( talk) 06:35, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

You moved this draft from a sandbox to draft space, and also tagged it as possibly undisclosed paid editing. We have already had an article on Tanisha Scott since 2013. My first thought is simply to decline the draft as duplicating the article and to tag the draft and the article to be merged in article space, but is there any particular reason that you are aware of why I should do something else?

Re Draft: Bhupinder Singh Mahal - I have made revisions to the draft in keeping with your suggestions. I was a founding member of a Sikh discussion group on Yahoo-Groups, now shut down. I was approached by Bhupinder in 2012 to help publish his book - about a Sikh emperor - as it could then be disseminated widely among the 1200 Sikh members of the group. No fees were asked nor paid. My son and I helped Bhupinder on the publication on Kindle Direct Publishing.
I do not have friendly relationship with Bhupinder. As our members bought his book and wrote favorably about it, and as I came across his recently published book "Origin of Jat Race", I was impressed with his works and decided to explore his life and activities. As I delved into his life I got persuaded to write his bio.
I am 88 and frail. Please assist me to improve the draft.

Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. / Johan (WMF)

A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the Administrator's Noticeboard. 20:06, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. / Johan (WMF)

Established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have not made any edits or logged actions in the preceding twelve months. Because you have been inactive, your administrative permissions will be removed if you do not return to activity within the next month.
Inactive administrators are encouraged to rejoin the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to rejoin the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
