Hi, in Talk:Housefly you said that some of the images weren't of houseflies. Unfortunately, it's not clear to me which pictures you referred to when you said "the first" etc. Could you clarify? Thanks a lot, AxelBoldt 22:05, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
Hi Amaurea! Thanks for contacting me. I've raised the issue on the Wikipedia-l mailing list, where it's received a much bigger public response and is actually being debated. I'm still wary, though, that a lot of people seem to be going along with the stable versions proposal without knowing too much about it, and the proponents of it just say "well, it's not a significant change". You can read the public debate at Wikipedia-l mailing list archive and if you want to contribute to the discussion, you're welcome to post to the mailing list. Together we can make a difference!

I believe the number of articles of >AEQ quality is far too small to make any significant dent in the overall rate of recruitment of new editors. At present, there are 848 former featured articles, out of a total of 887,508 articles on Wikipedia. That is less than 1/1000. If every one of the former featured articles was protected (which is an overestimate, since some of them may have prospects of new developments in the near future, and others may not be >AEQ any longer), there would be no visible effect on Wikipedia's rate of growth. Furthermore, there is only one new featured article per day, while the number of newly created articles every day is far higher. Thus, although the number of protected articles would go up, the total number of articles would go up much faster - with the end result that the protected articles would represent a declining fraction of the total number of articles, and their effect on Wikipedia's rate of growth would get ever smaller. -- Mihnea Tudoreanu 23:38, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

Regarding the definition of a page, I'm going by Wikipedia:What is an article, particularly the bit about what Special:Statistics uses (in the main namespace, not a redirect, has one outbound internal link). I have the query/code written, and just wanted to pass the format by you. I added a bit more information, primarily to make it easier to double-check the data for mistakes on my part.
Columns:
I sorted it by page_id, just because that's easiest for me, which means it's not sorted by timestamp. The first couple of lines in the report will be:

I have a bit of doubt about the data... I'm going off the first recorded revision in history... I don't think that's always 100% accurate. For instance, looking at the first version of Anarchism, it doesn't look like it was really the first version. Though I don't know much about the accuracy of the data from the early days. Maybe it doesn't matter to you, I don't know.
Anyway, say the word and I'll go ahead and run the full report, it will probably take 30 - 60 minutes to run. -- Interiot 23:29, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi,
Could you reconsider your edit removing the scrollbars from the table of opinion polling results on the page " Opinion polling for the Greek legislative election, 2015"? When the scrollbars were still in place, they kept the column headers in place even when you were scrolling down to older polls. That way, even when you were looking at a year-old poll, it was immediately visible which column belonged to which party - the column headers were kind of like a frozen row in a spreadsheet. That made use of the table a lot easier, to be honest! Consider this just as feedback from a user. Cheers, -- No-itsme ( talk) 06:40, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Amaurea; thanks for clarifying which data was used for File:Iceland opinion polls.svg, although referring to a list in English-language Wikipedia (which also might be subject to changes) certainly isn't ideal for using that figure in German-language Wikipedia, but I would accept it there. It's a nice figure and can be helpful. However, as Friedel V pointed out on the discussion page, there is another issue with the figure - the confusing use of party abbreviations. German-language Wikipedia uses the official party letters; for example, the Independence Party (Sjálfstæðisflokkurinn) has the letter D, and the Social Democratic Alliance (Samfylkingin) has the letter S. Your figure is using inofficial/invented abbreviations that are used in English-language Wikipedia's table, such as S for the Independence Party, which is utterly confusing in a context where "S" is otherwise used (as the official party letter) for a different party. So, I have removed the figure again for the time being, to prevent confusing readers, but would like to ask: Maybe you could (for German-language Wikipedia and maybe other Wikipedia language versions using the Icelandic party letters) generate a version of your figure using party letters instead of English Wikipedia's abbreviations? Then I would be glad to see it back in de-WP. Gestumblindi ( talk) 12:21, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

That table indeed has some useful information, but could probably use some trimming. There are entries with zero content, and it's not clear that huge a table is needed. Perhaps the table could be moved off to another article (Sgr A* star cluster?), while leaving information for only the most relevant stars in the main article. I'd suggest that the three stars with articles of their own (S2, S55, S62) and maybe S4711 (if you can find some information for it) might be relevant to the overall Sgr A* article.

Hi Amaurea; thanks for clarifying which data was used for File:Iceland opinion polls.svg, although referring to a list in English-language Wikipedia (which also might be subject to changes) certainly isn't ideal for using that figure in German-language Wikipedia, but I would accept it there. It's a nice figure and can be helpful. However, as Friedel V pointed out on the discussion page, there is another issue with the figure - the confusing use of party abbreviations. German-language Wikipedia uses the official party letters; for example, the Independence Party (Sjálfstæðisflokkurinn) has the letter D, and the Social Democratic Alliance (Samfylkingin) has the letter S. Your figure is using inofficial/invented abbreviations that are used in English-language Wikipedia's table, such as S for the Independence Party, which is utterly confusing in a context where "S" is otherwise used (as the official party letter) for a different party. So, I have removed the figure again for the time being, to prevent confusing readers, but would like to ask: Maybe you could (for German-language Wikipedia and maybe other Wikipedia language versions using the Icelandic party letters) generate a version of your figure using party letters instead of English Wikipedia's abbreviations? Then I would be glad to see it back in de-WP. Gestumblindi ( talk) 12:21, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

Greetings and felicitations. I was just browsing the Sagittarius A* article, and noticed that your last edit to it broke the named reference "Gillessen", apparently because it is defined twice. I thought you'd like to know so that you can fix it. :-) — DocWatson42 ( talk) 03:47, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited S0–102, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page VLT ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

That table indeed has some useful information, but could probably use some trimming. There are entries with zero content, and it's not clear that huge a table is needed. Perhaps the table could be moved off to another article (Sgr A* star cluster?), while leaving information for only the most relevant stars in the main article. I'd suggest that the three stars with articles of their own (S2, S55, S62) and maybe S4711 (if you can find some information for it) might be relevant to the overall Sgr A* article.
As a secondary comment, calling an editor a "deletionist" violates WP:NPA, so be careful. Regards, Tarl N. ( discuss) 02:28, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of countries by total road tunnel length is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of countries by total road tunnel length until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 03:41, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
