Miscellaneous

- Following the 2024 Steward Elections, the following editors have been appointed as stewards: Ajraddatz, Albertoleoncio, EPIC, JJMC89, Johannnes89, Melos and Yahya.
An edit you made to this page a number of years ago, which remains active, included wikifying a link to Georges Gonthier, the father of Charles Gonthier. Unfortunately your link appears to actually point to Georges Gonthier, the mathematician, who was born in the 1960's and is definitely not old enough to have been the father of Charles Gonthier. May I ask that you make a suitable correction to the page if you deem it appropriate? Ordinarily this is a change I would make myself but because I know Georges Gonthier, the mathematician, personally I do not consider it appropriate for me to make this change.

- Thanks for requesting this in the way that you did! I have removed the incorrect wiklink. Best wishes, Paul Erik (talk) (contribs) 02:23, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of User:Charliesouza/Charlie Souza
A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Charliesouza/Charlie Souza, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.
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.

Hello Dearest admin,
I saw you reverted on Colin Jost without warning the new user. Trying to welcome the new user, I saw his contribs and just drove-by to tell you. They may be a new editor that don't know some things here on Wikipedia. The message of revert is not enough. I hope this sets as a reminder (as I also know there are many works you have to cover). Thanks and keep doing good as you always have done! Safari Scribe Edits! Talk! 01:56, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hello,
User:SafariScribe. Thank you for the reminder, and thanks as well for adding a welcome message to the new user. If I might offer one piece of feedback to you: I would not have made the suggestion to the new editor that Jost's height might be added to his infobox. We don't do that unless the person is notable for their height, or if it is relevant, such as if they are a sportsperson. Best wishes,
Paul Erik

- Welp, I understand. Thanks for that. I am just making sure the new users are welcomed like any other editors, since most of the vandals at some point are seen in users not welcomed with links to editing. Thanks though! Safari Scribe Edits! Talk! 02:19, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
