Laura, as far as I can tell you have not yet responded to any of the six DYK notifications of issues with your nominations. I don't understand why you bother to nominate articles if you aren't going to address issues that come up in the nomination process.
Of the six, one has been approved because someone intervened and took care of the issue, one has been rejected, and the remaining four (post-Christmas) are all a week old, the standard interval to wait before it's considered safe to assume the person will not respond. As such, they could be rejected at any time, and are likely to be so in the next couple of days unless you take action.
Please give these remaining four DYK nominations your attention right away, and give some priority to issues with your nominations going forward. Thank you very much. BlueMoonset ( talk) 19:46, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi. I think there is some confusion going on with File:Kylie Gauci.ogg. The spoken version is about a Louise Ullery, b. 1977, who doesn't appear to have a wikipedia article, and the link is to a revision of the page Jeremy Doyle. I can't see any obvious explanation, and it doesn't appear to have been recently vandalised. Sorry if I'm being really stupid - its quite late at night where I am.

Hi Laura. I reverted My Legado on this article (for all the right reasons, I might add). Apparently they represent or work for the athlete. Be that as it may, the article itself is in pretty poor state, and this is of course your area, if I remember correctly. Perhaps you can find some easy ways to improve this article. Thank you, Drmies ( talk) 04:14, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
I have undone your tagging of the redirect. It is extremely disruptive as the redirect has 896 incoming links, and tagging it breaks these links. Number 5 7 20:01, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
And your current batch of edits unfortunately proves my point. Why on earth would you be correcting a redirect to another redirect rather than a a direct link. I'm afraid this is going to ANI. Number 5 7 20:36, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello. I was cleaning out the Sportspeople Stubs category. I found a few articles that you created, including Manuel Berzal Burgos and Manuel Rodriguez Navarro. I moved them to Spanish Paralympic medalist stubs.

There is a proposal at the IdeaLab that may interest you. Lightbreather ( talk) 20:58, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello, Laura Hale. It is I, Ellie Kesselman, your Quora acquaintance, here to say "Hi!' and bring a friendly "oink". I love all varieties of pigs, thus reference them a lot. My :@) is a symbolic friendly piggy. I realize that this is somewhat puerile, but I am trying to be sincere, instead of my usual cautious formality. I liked what you said today (maybe yesterday?) on the IdeaLab proposal thingy!

Since WikiProject Women as proposed at the IdeaLab may take some time to realize, and based on a discussion on the proposal's talk page, I have started a test Kaffeeklatsch area for women (cisgender or trans-woman, regardless of sexual orientation) only.

Hello Books & Bytes subscribers. There is a new Visual Editor reference feature in development called Citoid. It is designed to "auto-fill" references using a URL or DOI. We would really appreciate you testing whether TWL partners' references work in Citoid. Sharing your results will help the developers fix bugs and improve the system. If you have a few minutes, please visit the testing page for simple instructions on how to try this new tool. Regards, MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 18:47, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

Laura, as far as I can tell you have not yet responded to any of the six DYK notifications of issues with your nominations. I don't understand why you bother to nominate articles if you aren't going to address issues that come up in the nomination process.
Of the six, one has been approved because someone intervened and took care of the issue, one has been rejected, and the remaining four (post-Christmas) are all a week old, the standard interval to wait before it's considered safe to assume the person will not respond. As such, they could be rejected at any time, and are likely to be so in the next couple of days unless you take action.
Please give these remaining four DYK nominations your attention right away, and give some priority to issues with your nominations going forward. Thank you very much. BlueMoonset ( talk) 19:46, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello Laura, I see you've been adding citations to Tom Mohan. I don't think coverage in a local Irish newspaper/site is enough to satisfy notability guidelines. So, I still believe this article should be deleted. Thanks, JMHamo ( talk) 14:55, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
Laura, I hope to close the AN discussion about you.

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Great job on your recent page creation! If you check back i have added some tags to help the quality of the page.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Mycomp86 ( talk) 17:05, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi. I think there is some confusion going on with File:Kylie Gauci.ogg. The spoken version is about a Louise Ullery, b. 1977, who doesn't appear to have a wikipedia article, and the link is to a revision of the page Jeremy Doyle. I can't see any obvious explanation, and it doesn't appear to have been recently vandalised. Sorry if I'm being really stupid - its quite late at night where I am. Jamesx 12345 23:03, 15 February 2014 (UTC)
Hi Laura. I reverted My Legado on this article (for all the right reasons, I might add). Apparently they represent or work for the athlete. Be that as it may, the article itself is in pretty poor state, and this is of course your area, if I remember correctly. Perhaps you can find some easy ways to improve this article. Thank you, Drmies ( talk) 04:14, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
I have undone your tagging of the redirect. It is extremely disruptive as the redirect has 896 incoming links, and tagging it breaks these links. Number 5 7 20:01, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
And your current batch of edits unfortunately proves my point. Why on earth would you be correcting a redirect to another redirect rather than a a direct link. I'm afraid this is going to ANI. Number 5 7 20:36, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi Books & Bytes recipients: The Wikipedia Library has been expanding rapidly and we need some help! We currently have 10 signups for free account access open and several more in the works... In order to help with those signups, distribute access codes, and manage accounts we'll need 2-3 more Account Coordinators.
It takes about an hour to get up and running and then only takes a couple hours per week, flexible depending upon your schedule and routine. If you're interested in helping out, please drop a note in the next week at

You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

As you're apparently the Paralympic classification expert around here I'm requesting you to please see Talk:Paratriathlon classification#New system as from 2014 and contribute to updating the article. The source document I found - http://www.triathlon.org/paratriathlon/categories - talks about "points" without explaining them. Roger (Dodger67) ( talk) 13:23, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
Verity Long-Droppert has been taken to AfD and I note no one has bothered to inform you despite you being the page creator. It's at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Verity Long-Droppert if you're interested. Best, Jenks24 ( talk) 03:11, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi, this may be of interest to you. Bogger ( talk) 10:11, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

Hello. I was cleaning out the Sportspeople Stubs category. I found a few articles that you created, including Manuel Berzal Burgos and Manuel Rodriguez Navarro. I moved them to Spanish Paralympic medalist stubs.
However, I found that Spain came in fourth, not third. That means these articles/references are inaccurate and I thought you would like to help fix them. -- MrLinkinPark333 ( talk) 00:21, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi. An accusation was made a few weeks ago, alleging that you were a sockpuppet of another editor ( TheQ Editor). It doesn't appear that you were ever informed of this; that was an oversight, for which I apologize on behalf of the Wikipedia sockpuppet investigation team.
In any case, the conclusion of this investigation was that no evidence sufficient to link you to the other editor was found, and the investigation has now been closed. — Rich wales (no relation to Jimbo) 18:49, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
For all the good work you do!

Just wondering if you have any thoughts re: the idea of WMF hosting a genealogy project. If so, feel free to contribute to this discussion. And apologies if I have made this request before. --- Another Believer ( Talk) 17:56, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

There is a proposal at the IdeaLab that may interest you. Lightbreather ( talk) 20:58, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello, Laura Hale. It is I, Ellie Kesselman, your Quora acquaintance, here to say "Hi!' and bring a friendly "oink". I love all varieties of pigs, thus reference them a lot. My :@) is a symbolic friendly piggy. I realize that this is somewhat puerile, but I am trying to be sincere, instead of my usual cautious formality. I liked what you said today (maybe yesterday?) on the IdeaLab proposal thingy!

Since WikiProject Women as proposed at the IdeaLab may take some time to realize, and based on a discussion on the proposal's talk page, I have started a test Kaffeeklatsch area for women (cisgender or trans-woman, regardless of sexual orientation) only. If interested, your participation would be most welcome. Lightbreather ( talk) 19:39, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Hello Books & Bytes subscribers. There is a new Visual Editor reference feature in development called Citoid. It is designed to "auto-fill" references using a URL or DOI. We would really appreciate you testing whether TWL partners' references work in Citoid. Sharing your results will help the developers fix bugs and improve the system. If you have a few minutes, please visit the testing page for simple instructions on how to try this new tool. Regards, MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 18:47, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
