Draft: Elizabeth Clark
Nthep.
I believe I have completed the text for the above author. I have removed the reference to a book cover that was a problem. I wonder if the draft can now be moved to Wikipedia. It needs an entry in the disambiguation page for Elizabeth Clark except I'm not sure how to put it there. Could you advise me please I'm suggesting "Elizabeth Clark (1875 - 1972) Children's storyteller, author and lecturer. "
Once this step is finished, could we please discuss again the possibility of including one book cover using NFCC protocol or whatever? Pogga D ( talk) 20:51, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. -- MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello,
Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

Hi Nthep.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins). MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:48, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Hi Nthep,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

Just dropping a reminder, but
this thread at the Teahouse comes off a bit bitey, and not exactly a paragon of a friendly place to help new editors become accustomed to Wikipedia culture, ask questions, and develop community relationships.
I realize a lot of people have an aversion to
hat collecting,
leveling up their WP accounts, and contracting
barnstaritis, but these are are poor reasons to do anything but encourage new users to to contribute productively, even if they find that motivation in something like an edit drive. That is, after all, part of what these drives are for.

I gave an article about an oil company that is in many African nations. Believe you me, its a very difficult task in getting notable information online about this simply because their aren't many sources that give this information even though there are just enough to prove its an existing company. I would like some help on this article, thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Royaljama ( talk • contribs) 02:17, 27 December 2016 (UTC)

This may be the same who participated in the discussion, but not sure. FWIW, I think the close was not In accordance with proper procedure, so I reverted the IPs edits.

You just deleted a page I created. I had not finished it yet, I should have saved it in the sandbox. Is there any way of recovering what you deleted so I can save it in my sandbox? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chocolatebareater ( talk • contribs) 22:11, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
Hi! Thanks so much for dealing with the revdeletion at José María López Lledín. Could ask you to extend the same courtesy to the very first revision, which seems to have got missed and so is still visible to us mere mortals. Thank you! Justlettersandnumbers ( talk) 23:11, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
Hi Nthep. Would you mind taking a look at Special:Contributions/2.28.71.127 when you a chance? It seems that the is disagreeing with your close to Wikipedia:Files for discussion/2016 September 2#File:National Bank of New Zealand logo.svg. This may be the same who participated in the discussion, but not sure. FWIW, I think the close was not In accordance with proper procedure, so I reverted the IPs edits. If, however, you feel more discussion is needed and that my reverts were inappropriate, then please revert back. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 23:16, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
Hi, a consensus seems to have been reached at Talk:Wakefield Trinity R.L.F.C.#Proposed rename and if possible, I'm requesting you close the discussion and move the page please. If you can't, no worries, I'll be happy to start the formal 7 day move request/discussion if you feel that's the better option. Many thanks Bwfcwarrior ( talk) 23:23, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Nthep, I noticed that you deleted the older image (my original) of Dillinger here: File:Brand_of_Honor_Bucking_Bull_Dillinger_in_the_Pasture.jpg#filelinks I was unable to delete the original image. Someone else had made a change to it to make it a better image to use and created a new image. I have the same problem with this image if you can assist here too? File:Little_Yellow_Jacket_being_ridden_by_Chris_Shivers.jpg If you could delete the original image, much obliged. I will set about learning how to upload more appropriate images in the future. These were my first two. I'm thinking only admins can delete. Thanks and have a great week. :) dawnleelynn (talk) 00:19, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
