Well, I would tend not to use these templates in the main body text of an article, as it can prove difficult to read and annoying to some users. However in tables and lists etc, then yes, I would probably use the templates. Fire Fox esp 16:49, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
Hi, Bart! Just wanted to drop a quick thank-you note for your contributions to the articles on Russian federal subjects (infoboxes, flags, etc.) Would you be interested in joining the Russian federal subjects WikiProject? I used to work on it quite extensively, but now I simply do not have the time and keep looking for someone (or not necessarily "one") to take over. Anyway, thanks again for all your work!— Ëzhiki (erinaceus amurensis) 19:00, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
- Actually I only started adding there because I was working on the
List of flags (Regional flags) and saw that many were lacking in wp. Since I don't even speak or can't read russian I won't be of much help I fear, but nevertheless I'll keep improving where I can (mainly improving the layout of the articles) !!
Bart l 01:33, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
- Ah, I was hoping for more :) Anyway, since the articles are pretty much being neglected at this time, any help you can render is going to be invaluable. Thanks again!— Ëzhiki (erinaceus amurensis) 02:43, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
- On a similar note, could you be so kind as to add the three flags that are still missing? Thanks!

You contributed to the TFD discussion for {{ 2LCdisambig}}. I am following this with further discussion at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages)#Abbreviations. Susvolans ⇔ 18:46, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
Hi, I was looking at some of your edits. It was hard to see what you had wikified, because the reordering made the "changes" display hard to read. Although it's not a rule, it would definitely keep things clearer if you could keep the reordering and wikification in separate edits. Thanks.
I also noticed that some of the pages you worked on had links on non-subject words. I don't know how many of those you added, and how many were already there. As it's frowned upon in the disambiguation guidelines, I'm removing this.
If you weren't the one who made those links, please accept my apologies; as I said, it was hard to tell.
Fourohfour 20:57, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
- I mainly do 2 things in this regard: put the abbreviated word in front of the sentence = wikification and 2nd sort them alphabeticly; not a bad idea to do it in two seperate steps anyway ! Apologies accepted, for I did not through in non-linked items, even removed some of them myself, I fully agree on your comment !! Only one remark: in my opinion it should not be bad to add extra links to items in the explanations and make the subject bold, see example below. Bart l 18:42, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Groningen coat.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Groningen coat.gif. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are
open content,
public domain, and
fair use. Find the appropriate template in
Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Shyam ( T/ C) 15:27, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

An image you uploaded, Image:Zuid-Holland coat.gif, was tagged with the {{ coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{ seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 13:21, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Greetings, You are being contacted by BetacommandBot and by Zscout370. The reason for this message is that you have have uploaded Image:Arkhangelsk Oblast Flag.gif under the following license Template:Vector-images.com. Recently, a decision was made about images and anything not meeting freedomdefined.org will be considered "unfree" for Wikimedia's purposes. The terms of the website do not allow their images to be used now under our new guidelines. You are being given a chance to relicense the image for about two weeks. If you fail to relicense the image, there is a good chance the image will be deleted from Wikipedia. If you have any questions or concern, please see Zscout370. Thank you.

There have been a series of proposals to initiate a Featured List of the Day on the main page. Numerous proposals have been put forth. After the third one failed, I audited all WP:FL's in order to begin an experiment in my own user space that will hopefully get it going. Today, it commences at WP:LOTD. Afterwards I created my experimental page, a new proposal was set forth to do a featured list that is strikingly similar to my own which is to do a user page experimental featured list, but no format has been confirmed and mechanism set in place. I continue to be willing to do the experiment myself and with this posting it commences. Please submit any list that you would like to have considered for list of the day in the month of January 2008 by the end of this month to WP:LOTD and its subpages. You may submit multiple lists for consideration. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TonyTheTiger ( talk • contribs) 18:59, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Messias Gabriel Liotta
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Messias Gabriel Liotta. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and " What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Messias Gabriel Liotta. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.
Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. -- Erwin85Bot ( talk) 01:06, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Template:SmCountry
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 Template:SmCountry, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —

File:Namur Flag.png missing description details
is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the image, and it will be more informative to readers.
If you have any questions, please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot ( opt-out) 15:57, 9 June 2013 (UTC)Better source request for File:Tambov Oblast Flag.gif
Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot ( opt-out) 03:11, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

UKR listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect UKR. Since you had some involvement with the UKR redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. - CHAMPION ( talk) ( contributions) ( logs) 06:44, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
The file File:Tambov Oblast Flag.gif has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Unused, superseded by File:Flag of Tambov Oblast.svg.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
files for discussion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion. --

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —

File:Namur Flag.png missing description details
is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the image, and it will be more informative to readers.
If you have any questions, please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot ( opt-out) 15:57, 9 June 2013 (UTC)Better source request for File:Tambov Oblast Flag.gif
Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot ( opt-out) 03:11, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

UKR listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect UKR. Since you had some involvement with the UKR redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. - CHAMPION ( talk) ( contributions) ( logs) 06:44, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
The file File:Tambov Oblast Flag.gif has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Unused, superseded by File:Flag of Tambov Oblast.svg.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
files for discussion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion. --
