talk 09:29, 19 December 2021 (UTC)Hello, Qwerfjkl,
Thank you so much for tagging the empty categories! For years, I did this task every morning (U.S. time) but lately I've been getting to it later and later in the day and I didn't do it at all yesterday so today's list was twice as long. It's good that there is more than one person who checks this list. Typically, there are between 10-20 categories each day but it can get into the hundreds depending on what pages have been deleted so extra help is always welcome. It doesn't take a lot of time to do, but it's good to stay on top of so things don't pile up.
There are a few editors who create most of our categories who have asked not to be notified when a category they created has become empty and I can relay this information to you if you pick this up as a regular task and add it to your already crowded list of things you tend to on Wikipedia. Thanks again! Liz Read! Talk! 23:09, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I wanted to tell you something.
Here you moved my question from the Teahouse, along with the signatures, which I think you are not supposed to do according to @
Nick Moyes what he said
here. I am quoting the part- If you find complex advice helpful, you could always think about making another sandbox page just for table advice, and either link to the diff that it was given, or copy/paste the reply into your sandbox page, and split it up into different headings. If you do the latter, strip out the persons signature - or at the very least the date/time stamp, but make an edit summary crediting them when you copy it into your sandbox. This is called 'attribution' and helps credit other peoples work
. So, why did you then copy the stuff along with the signatures? Is it allowed in some cases? ―

The 2021 re-examination of RFA has been completed. 23 (plus 2 variants) ideas were proposed. Over 200 editors participated in this final phase. Three changes gained consensus and two proposals were identified by the closers as having the potential to gain consensus with some further discussion and iteration. Thanks to all who helped to close the discussion, and in particular Primefac, Lee Vilenski, and Ymblanter for closing the most difficult conversations and for TonyBallioni for closing the review of one of the closes.
The following proposals gained consensus and have all been implemented:

Category:International airports has been nominated for deletion. A discussion is taking place to decide whether this proposal complies with the categorization guidelines. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the categories for discussion page. Thank you. ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 17:56, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Category:International airports requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2011_November_15#Category:International_airports. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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 "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 deleted 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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. ...William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 18:09, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Qwerfjkl,
Since you are tagging empty categories lately, I thought I'd let you know that there are a couple dozen categories that appear on the empty categories list that were emptied "out of process" and so I have reverted that editor's edits. So, these "People from" categories are no longer empty. I know that you would see that as soon as you opened the categories to tag them but I thought I'd let you know ahead of time that not all categories on this long list are actually empty and need to be tagged.
Thank you for your work! Liz Read! Talk! 02:25, 5 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello.
The Category:Azerbaijani sports venue stubs should not be deleted as being unpopulated, which is not the case, because the Template:Azerbaijan-sports-venue-stub exists since 2009, where many of them were added in the short Azerbaijani sports venue articles, but the complementary Category:Azerbaijani sports venue stubs for this stub was missing, until I created it this year. That is why it should stay. I put this paragraph in the Category talk:Azerbaijani sports venue stubs page, in case you wish to comment as well.
Yours sincerely, Multituberculata ( talk) 19:26, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

You've made quite a lot of redirects lately to Bishop of Vienne, but this is itself a redirect to Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vienne, so what you've actually done is to create a lot of double redirects. Could you go back and fix them? Not every request for redirects at AFC is particularly well-focussed, so you need to take care to double-check what is being requested.

It looks like you were not tagging these categories for deletion. I have mentioned the sudden emptying of categories on this subject at Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines and they are having a discussion about both articles and categories on Barangays.

The Category:Azerbaijani sports venue stubs should not be deleted as being unpopulated, which is not the case, because the Template:Azerbaijan-sports-venue-stub exists since 2009, where many of them were added in the short Azerbaijani sports venue articles, but the complementary Category:Azerbaijani sports venue stubs for this stub was missing, until I created it this year. That is why it should stay. I put this paragraph in the Category talk:Azerbaijani sports venue stubs page, in case you wish to comment as well.
Yours sincerely, Multituberculata ( talk) 19:26, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for your fantastic work on
User:Qwerfjkl/VEref.py, based on my
VisualEditor ref namer.py script. You
called your work bad, but I know my original work was really bad, nowhere near my typical programming level for programs I plan to distribute it, I just whipped it up real quick to fix a problem in a single article. Any badness in the script is my fault—your work on improving some free software I wrote in a rush to make it actually useful is worthy of a
hacker culture barnstar

Hello! Due to your intervention at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 December 24#Validity of Catholic Church Authority, I inform you there is a smiliar RfD (article AfDed for a delete turned into an inappropriate redirect) at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 January 2#Independent Catholic Church USA.

Whack! You've been whacked with a wet trout. Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly. |

You've made quite a lot of redirects lately to Bishop of Vienne, but this is itself a redirect to Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vienne, so what you've actually done is to create a lot of double redirects. Could you go back and fix them? Not every request for redirects at AFC is particularly well-focussed, so you need to take care to double-check what is being requested.

Hey, I reacted to your message at Category talk:Croatian military personnel in Ottoman armies. -- Joy [shallot] ( talk) 14:28, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect Help:REFERENCES and has thus listed it for discussion. This discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 January 14#Help:REFERENCES until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. -- Tamzin cetacean needed (she/they) 23:09, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Qwerfjkl,
It looks like you were not tagging these categories for deletion. I have mentioned the sudden emptying of categories on this subject at Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines and they are having a discussion about both articles and categories on Barangays. But they are aware of what has been happening over the past few days and it's fine to tag them for CSD C1 deletion. Thank you for your work! Liz Read! Talk! 01:27, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
I made you a new toy to play with: Category:Pages with lower-case short description. Have fun! It will probably take days or weeks to populate fully, but you can feed the articles to your new script at whatever pace you want. – Jonesey95 ( talk) 07:10, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you, Qwerfjkl. I need to gather info for a particular entry, but otherwise, there is nothing I need at the moment. Kind regards :) -- Askmisspatience ( talk) 18:20, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
I put a complaint on ANI in Stonewalling on Talk:Julian_Assange and nothing seemed to be happening so I just did a search of "Stonewalling on Talk:Julian_Assange" to see if anyone referred to it and just your talk page came up with

But looking on this talk page I found nothing nor in the history since yesterday! Any idea what could be happening or is search just doing something very strange? Thanks. NadVolum ( talk) 10:32, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for tagging Agnibaan Rocket for speedy deletion nomination. I created this page by mistake. Please remove this page as soon as possible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harshdeep2021 ( talk • contribs) 13:59, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
Can you please remove the CSD for Category:Slovakia Summer Olympics football squad navigational boxes. A blocked user tried to delete it. Thank you. KingSkyLord ( talk | contribs) 15:31, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
Please see my proposal to speedily rename subcategories of Category:Enforced disappearances by country e.g. Category:Forced disappearances in Argentina to Category:Enforced disappearances in Argentina to align with the parent category per C2C. Hugo999 ( talk) 04:21, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
There isn't anything I need at the moment. Thank you for asking. I'm gathering basic data for a non-profit client to add their wiki info and to be able to do so for an author page, etc. I'm looking at how other cities and organizations add their basic data. Will gather similar info to load per wiki guidelines. This process is all new, so not going to happen immediately. If there's a question will research the answer first. If I get stumped will ask for certain. Thank you for being a mentor. Askmisspatience ( talk) 19:10, 23 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi -- I just posted on Village Pump (technical), but I put it at the top of the page instead of the bottom. Is that why you moved it, or did I post on the wrong page? — DannyH (WMF) ( talk) 21:38, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
