Hello! I see you are an advanced user, and that you recently made a change to the article "No Man's Land (2001 film)", specifically two days ago. Therefore, and considering I can't do it myself because of my present status as a beginner user, I was wondering if you could consider changing the next phrase in the article: "Luckily, an English reporter arrives on scene". In this phrase, the use of the adjective "luckily", suggests to the reader the arrival of the reporter is a positive outcome in the story, when the film doesn't establish a moral framework that would allow for such affirmation, and the use of the term responds to an opinion made by an user. Thus, I recommend the aforementioned term is avoided. I would really appreciate if you consider my recommendation, and thank you for taking the time to read my message!
A tag has been placed on Veronika Zemanová requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion process. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's discussion directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please contact the administrator who deleted the page or use deletion review instead of recreating the page. Thank you.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Per Wikipedia:Overcategorization, please do not include an article in both a parent and child category. This will help to keep the number of categories to a manageable level. Thanks! Ng.j (talk) 03:57, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
This article was nominated for speedy deletion. Don't worry, I declined it, but you need to say more than just "X is a Ukrainian windsurfer". Clicking the link shows that she is a member of the Olympic team, and therefore certainly notable, but you should say that in the article, otherwise you may get speedy nominations under WP:CSD#A7 "no assertion of importance or significance". Regards, JohnCD (talk) 19:47, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
Correction - it was actually the talk page that was (correctly) nominated for deletion because of vandalism. All the same, my advice is good, even a stub article needs to make clear why its subject is important or significant, a reader should not have to click a reference link to find out. Regards, JohnCD (talk)

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages
Thank you for your recent articles, including My Nikifor. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. This can help you too, as the WikiProject members will often defend your work from deletion and try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information.

Template:Aviation accidents and incidents in 1966
For an aviation accident to be entered into the template, it must have an independent article. If you look at all the templates from 1920 till today, you'll notice the lack of redlinks.

Hi Inwind,
Just dropping by to let you know that on your recent article about Sandra Speichert I have now added 2 references to it, along with a minor ammount of extra information that I found online while researching for the references.
Maybe if you get a chance you could pop back over and take a look for yourself in case there is anything that doesn't sit right with you.
Kindest regards and happy wiki-ing!

Gučevo
I think that your move of Gučevo (mountain) was ill-advised. Both items are relatively obscure, so it is not a big deal, but in general:
two-item disambiguation pages are generally undesirable. In that way, 100% of searchers will not arrive to the right place. If you put one term as primary topic, at least 50% of them will.
The rule of thumb that I apply is that 2-item dab pages are OK only for obscure toponyms without clearcut primary topic, and/or where the number of items is likely to grow. No such user (talk) 12:56, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
I don't feel strongly one way or the other. I just followed the example from the fr and sr wikipedia, which preferred disambiguation. Modifying those five links to the mountain would have been just as easy an option. Inwind (talk) 14:18, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

Chernyshkovsky
Hi there! Just wanted to let you know that I restored that page again (to follow the spirit of WP:BRD) and provided a rationale on the talk page. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); January 31, 2013; 15:39 (UTC)
You know, I'd appreciate if you could reconsider the tone of this edit summary, please. I've clearly outlined the policy concerns on the talk page, and it is you who persists with re-reverts after being reverted as a part of WP:BRD. What's more, continuing to revert as the discussion is ongoing is not only poor form, it's typically considered to be disruptive behavior as well. I have no desire to escalate this situation any further, but I'd very much appreciate it if you could refrain from making bad-faith assumptions based on nothing but "suspicions". If only I had a quarter every time someone accuses me of "ownership" instead of continuing with the discussion... I'd have a lot of quarters by now! :)—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); January 31, 2013; 16:40 (UTC)
My suspicion on ownership is based on your claim on "policies" which seem to be contrary to those in the Russian wikipedia. I would go along with adding "River" to all Russian rivers even though I would prefer to reserve it to those rivers where disambiguation is required. Even though the interwiki links with the Russian and German wikipedia are upset when using one article for all three genders I would accept your system because you have created the quasi standard in the English wikipedia. The way in which Chernyshkovsky is disambiguated will also make no difference to world as a whole. I trust you to know Wikipedia better than me to find a suitable forum where we could gather a third party opinion for our little argument. Inwind (talk) 07:24, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
Inwind, I'm a little surprised that you don't know this, but Wikipedias in different languages have different, and often incompatible, policies and guidelines. There is a great number of guidelines in the English Wikipedia which do not exist in other editions; same is true the other way around. Each language edition is manned by mostly non-overlapping communities, each language has its quirks, and each culture has differing views on how things (sometimes very basic things!) ought to be done. All in all, the English Wikipedia is no more bound by the Russian or German Wikipedias' policies than the Russian and German Wikipedias are bound by ours. Imagine the outrage if someone in the Russian or German Wikipedia started to insist that all articles about the US cities must be in the "City, State" format solely because that's how it's done in the English wiki! That'd be ridiculous, wouldn't it?
As far as Chernyshkovsky go, it may not make any difference to the world as a whole, but based on the en-wiki policies, which the local community agreed upon, there is one particular way how it should be done. If you don't like that guideline, it is your full right to go to the MOS pages and challenge that guideline there, but please don't take it out on one random hand-picked example or go down the slippery slope of accusing other editors of bad deeds or "ownership".—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); February 1, 2013; 13:13 (UTC)
I agree with you that the naming convention for places in the US is not necessarily the best solution and it is good it is not exported to other wikipedias. However, I can not help the impression that your concept for Russian place name disambiguation follows the same route. I still believe that there could be element of "ownership" in the field of Russian place names in the English wikipedia. I have to admit though that I am a bit of a revolutionist and therefore may be seeing Tsardoms where others don't. Inwind (talk) 16:41, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
It is not "my" concept at all (and I would really appreciate it if you stopped accusing me of "ownership" already) ; I am merely following what our guidelines prescribe. One of my duties as an administrator is to know our policies and I am expected to enforce them when a situation calls for it. This, by the way, is true of whether I "like" a particular guideline or not (and as a private editor, I happen to believe the whole primary topic thing is a bunch of bullshit which creates more problems than it solves).
By the way, did you get a chance to read through those guidelines? Do you believe I am not interpreting them correctly or there is a good reason to make an exception here, one I'm just not seeing? If so, then by all means let's continue to discuss this further on the dab's talk page. That's what BRD is all about.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); February 1, 2013; 17:48 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on File:March on the Drina.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Your recent editing history at Don Cohan shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. While you did use a talk page, you did not do it instead of further reverting, but rather continued to revert. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing.

Benedict Cumberbath's Personal Life section
Hi there! Favor? Would you mind amending the paragraph regarding Cumberbatch's engagement to Sophie Hunter? It's rather ambiguous and I think a good context is necessary. I have checked Hunter's page and the paragraph about her engagement is just right.
On 5 November 2014, The Times announced that Hunter and actor Benedict Cumberbatch became engaged.[26] They met on the set of the 2009 film Burlesque Fairytales but didn't start dating until early 2014.[27][28][29]
Hello! Regarding Benedict Cumberbatch's personal life section, it should be "on the set of" rather than "on the sets of the film Burlesque Fairytales". Please correct. Thank you!180.191.65.179 (talk) 08:25, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
Word choices on lead paragraph
I have an issue with the rather pedestrian word choices on the lead paragraph of Benedict Cumberbatch's page. It says:
"...is an English actor and film producer who has performed in film, television, theatre and radio. He is the son of actors Timothy Carlton and Wanda Ventham and went to school at the University of Manchester and the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art."
University of Manchester isn't just a simple "school," it's a university, a higher educational institution. He also got a Masters degree at the London Academy of Dramatic art. It would be better for the sentence to read as:
"is an English actor and film producer who has performed in film, television, theatre and radio. The son of actors Timothy Carlton and Wanda Ventham, he graduated from the University of Manchester and continued his classical acting training at the the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art".
I hope you can help amend the article. Thank you!180.191.64.54 (talk) 04:56, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Wikidata
Don't forget to connect those articles you created about villages in Bulgaria to Wikidata. For example, "Zhultika" exists at bgwiki (Bulgarian Wikipedia) with the title "Жълтика". It also exists at the Romanian, Kazakh, Russian, and Ukrainian Wikipedias. All of those are connected through Wikidata here. That's where you need to add Zhultika. If you don't connect them then "Zhultika" might eventually get its own item and then one of the Wikidata administrators (like me) will have to delete that making sure it's connected to the other one. Thanks for creating the articles. Regards, --AmaryllisGardenertalk 14:25, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
Altai
Hi, Inwind! I had to undo your split of the Altay disambig into Altay and Altai. The vast majority of the entries on that page are related to the Altai region, in one form another, and as the region may be referred to under either spelling, so can be the individual entries. It all boils down to mere choice of spelling, and that's not a good enough reason to split a page. The only entries which can rightfully belong on the Altai page are those which cannot possibly be referred to as "Altay", and I'm not seeing any (apart perhaps from the novel). That said, this would have worked the other way, too (i.e., if the dab had originally been at "Altai", it would have made no sense to create a separate, and vastly duplicate, "Altay" disambiguation page). Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); December 11, 2014; 19:21 (UTC)
Dear Ezhiki, there are three Altays or Altais involved. Russian, which seems to be your domain seems to prefer the i, whereas the Chinese and Turkish seem to prefer the y. Maybe we have a chance for a compromise here. Inwind (talk) 19:36, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
But this has nothing to do with Russian, or Chinese, or any other foreign language. It has only to do with English, since this is the English Wikipedia. And in English, most of the "Altai" entries on that page can be found spelled both ways (just take a look at this gbooks results list, for example). Disambiguation pages exist to facilitate navigation, not to provide lessons about the language origins of the terms. There are no entries on your version of the Altai page which can't also be found spelled "Altay" in English, which makes it necessary to list them all on the "Altay" page (since disambiguation pages do include alternative spellings), and which, consequently, makes the "Altai" page totally redundant and best organized as a redirect. I'm not sure why you are not seeing that?—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); December 11, 2014; 19:47 (UTC)
Wikipedia etiquette suggests to talk first, then act. Three reverts are normally a no go and I thought that administrators would certainly stick to that. It is not true that the foreign origin of a word has to be lost in the English translation. There is an article on Müller which is seperate from Muller. I suggest to take a break to lower the emotions and then think of a compromise.Inwind (talk) 20:17, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
Apologies for the reverts, but I thought the reason is pretty obvious. I'm actually surprised that after three tries I'm still failing to communicate it to you. The Muller/Müller situation is different because the Muller page is an article (a set index article, and a lousy one at that, but still an article); one which is rightfully linked from the Müller disambiguation page. The whole point of the disambiguation pages is to link to articles, after all. On the other hand, the "Altai" page which you created was not intended by you as an article, but simply as another disambiguation page. And as a disambiguation page, it is a complete or a nearly complete subset of the "Altay" disambiguation page. Our editing guidelines do not recommend such an approach; WP:DPAGE (the "variant spelling" bullet) applies here.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); December 11, 2014; 20:44 (UTC)

Hi there. I wonder why you moved Vršovice to Vršovice (Prague). The two villages have populations under 500 and the Prague district has around 38,000, so is clearly the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. What was your rationale for moving it? Thanks, C679 22:13, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
As there was no disambiguation I went for the simple solution, disambuating from Vršovice. I just followed the disambiguation for other districts. Inwind (talk) 22:18, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
The simple solution is leave the page where it is and make a Vršovice (disambiguation) page. I will open a RM. Thanks, C679 08:11, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
Ok I have sorted it out, could you please revert your relevant changes. Thanks, C679 09:08, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
Delvaux
Hi Inwind. A question on the new Delvaux disambiguation page. Shouldn't this page be named "Delvaux_(disambiguation)" while Delvaux the company keeps the "Delvaux" name ? Reason: the primary topic is the company and it also happens to be the only topic whose name is exactly Delvaux. All other topics are either persons or asteroid with a composite name. It is a similar case as for Chanel where the company is the primary topic and the disambiguation page is clearly named as such: Chanel_(disambiguation)Naestr (talk) 08:04, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello, both methods are possible. If I have to choose, I look for the choice in the wikipedia of the native language. As the French Wikipedia chose the title fr:Delvaux I did the same. Inwind (talk) 11:59, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Your recent edits and autopatrolled
In this edit to Daniel Quinn (actor), you added unsourced biographical information. Please do not do this. In Eva Maria Meineke, you created a BLP that is almost entirely unsourced except for a citation to a stock photo website. You could lose your autopatrolled user right for this. I have, in an effort to establish notability, added two film citations to the article. I also removed biographical details which were completely unsourced. I also added a talk page with the {{WikiProject Biography}} banner, which includes the fact that this is a BLP. Someone with the autopatrolled right should have already done this. And, looking over just the past few articles that you've created, I saw Hardcover (film), which is completely unsourced. I don't understand how you got the autopatrolled user right if you're creating unsourced articles and sourcing BLPs to a stock photo website. You really need to slow down, take more care in sourcing, and work to add sources to the articles you've already created. I suggest that you stop creating articles until the ones that you've already created are properly sourced. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 17:18, 11 March 2016 (UTC)

Let's move then. Inwind (talk) 23:57, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

I prefer - within reason - to be WP:BB rather than clogging up move discussions. Feel free to revert or notify me if you do not agree with any of my moves. To avoid the problem with incoming links to disambiguation pages, I take your point and adjust incoming links first.Inwind (talk) 10:16, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
I think you miss the point. The diplomat, Abid Hasan, is a more important historical topic in the context of an encyclopedia than a relatively obscure athlete. It is therefore the primary topic, and should not be moved absent a discussion in which evidence is provided on which to base a consensus that the athlete is more important. Furthermore, a disambiguation page is merely a navigational device; if navigation can be accomplished with a hatnote, we use this less obtrusive method. It is fine to be bold, but when your bold edit is reverted, the next step is to initiate a discussion. With respect to Sergei Panov, however, I can see no argument for a primary topic between three relatively obscure athletes. bd2412T 14:25, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
Inwind, your behaviour is becoming problematic. Despite the above warnings, you continue to break twodabs setups. What are your intentions? Are you going to continue to violate that guideline? Pinging BD2412 as well. --Midas02 (talk) 01:10, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
Could you be a bit more specific what you call problematic behaviour. Do you consider one of the Bruce Chambers a primary topic ? Or is it the incoming links warning generated by the bot ? I am not an expert on how the wikipedia database works, but there seems to be a few hours lag in the database before template links are adjusted. During this time these links point to the old page. If you know how to avoid this, please let me know. Inwind (talk) 05:23, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
What is there not to understand? Bruce Chambers was set up in a twodabs scenario. The presence of hatnotes is a testimony of that. You have come in and moved the pages, on the sole basis of your personal opinion. As you have done in the past. So that's violating WP:TWODABS. In such cases, going through WP:RM is required to challenge the ongoing consensus. --Midas02 (talk) 18:52, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited William Holden (actor, born 1862), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Rochester. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello, Inwind. Voting in the 2016 Arbitration Committee elections is open from Monday, 00:00, 21 November through Sunday, 23:59, 4 December to all unblocked users who have registered an account before Wednesday, 00:00, 28 October 2016 and have made at least 150 mainspace edits before Sunday, 00:00, 1 November 2016.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
Hello. You seem confused about the difference between a disambiguation page and a surname index. I'd encourage you to read MOS:APO, which explains our guidelines for pages when someone shares the same surname. In addition, per WP:BRD, you need to stop reverting me. You boldly made a move, and I reverted you. The next step is to discuss, which is what we're doing now. If you want wider input, you can request the move at WP:RM. Per WP:3R, if you revert again without consensus to do so, you could be blocked. Thanks, --Tavix(talk) 15:07, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
The new disabiguation Pirri (name) is a good compromise. Inwind (talk) 15:42, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
What is the film about? Love story, western?Xx236 (talk) 08:27, 12 December 2016 (UTC)
Spinout
Hi. 1. About this: [2]. It's just not right. The song was written for the movie, the album simply contains the soundtrack to it. 2. And about this: Cut-and-paste moves are not allowed, use WP:RM. (But in this case I think the movie is the primary meaning and shouldn't be moved. --Moscow Connection (talk) 15:44, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi Inwind - you shouldn't overwrite a redirect to create a new article on another topic. I have therefore reverted your changes. My suggestion is that you create a new article with a different title, for example Operation E (drama). The usual notability rules apply. NealeFamily (talk) 22:04, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
added hatnote for Japanese invasion of Malaya. Just using google search I could not find much many sources using Operation E for the Japanese invasion . Inwind (talk) 22:42, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
Thanks Inwind - that is a practical solution. You might want to expand the article on the film though. It looks pretty bare. NealeFamily (talk) 02:56, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
Let's reduce the environmental impact of the Wikimedia movement!
Hi Inwind, please allow me to get in touch with you because you have stated sympathy with environmental causes on your user page. I would like to invite you to check out the Environmental impact project page on Meta, where I am trying to create some momentum to reduce the environmental impact of the Wikimedia movement. My first goal is to have all the Wikimedia servers run on renewable energy. Maybe you could show your support for this project as well by adding your signature? Thank you, --Gnom (talk) 19:45, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi, film titles should be italicized. Thanks. Opencooper (talk) 00:23, 23 January 2017 (UTC)
Draft:Aleksandra Cotti
I moved Draft:Aleksandra Cotti back to draft space today at 10:11, you moved it back to mainspace without any improvements on 12.18. Didn't you wonder why it was moved back to draft space, and did you even try to check the facts in the article? The first source, [3] only gives 2012 Olympics, and no medal. The second source, [4] indicates that Italy won silver at Rio 2016, but doesn't mention Cotti. And the third and final source, [5] indicates that she played in a game at the 2013 World Championships.
How can this set of sources be used to cliam that she won a silver medal at the 2016 Olympics (and apparently at two European Championships as well)? The one source about her Olympic appearances, the olympic.org source, contradicts this fact. It may be true anyway, but as it stands, this article should not have been moved to mainspace, and certainly not a second time. Fram (talk) 12:51, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
In my view only the reference for the 2016 Olympics was incorrect. This is not a reason to move an otherwise perfectly fine article to Draft, you can just add [citation needed]. Anyway this reference is now corrected. Inwind (talk) 13:10, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Then your view is wrong. The infobox lists three medals, none of them were referenced, and for the Olympics you had a reference actually saying the opposite. These are the major claims in a short article, not some minor detail. Fram (talk) 13:16, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
I have checked five of your SvG moves, and moved two of them back to draft space. Draft:Alexandra Dascalu has in the main text a club with a source, but the source doesn't mention the club; and in the infobox you have a 2011 club which appears to be wrong. Draft:Alessya Safronova has a different club in the source than in the text it supposedly should source (and in the infobox). What's the point of having a source if it doesn't match the sourced content, and what's the point of having a SvG cleanup if you let such things slip by all the time. Fram (talk) 13:35, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
It is difficult to verify every single source on several thousand SvG articles which have gone to Draft. I moved only those articles back, where the subject is noteworthy and no libellous text is inlcuded. I admit that I have not read the complete SvG story. I am sure you can find millions of wikipedia article with less than 100% perfect references. Should they all be moved to Draft ? Inwind (talk) 13:46, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Safronova had one source, which contradicted the article... No, we don't remove all articles with poor sourcing, we have in this case removed all BLP articles by one author where the sourcing was often poor and the text was filled with errors (including but not limited to severe BLP violations). The intent of the cleanup was not to only get rid of the truly egregious BLP violations, but also to make sure that the sources actually worked and were relevant, and that the few bits on information in the article were matched in the sources (and preferably a check that the subject is actually notable should be made as well). Your checks are really insufficient in this case. Fram (talk) 13:58, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
Please, either stop moving articles out of draft, or make sure that whatever is in the articles is referenced. In an article like Aleksandra Wójcik (volleyball), her 2013 and 2015 performance is not sourced. Of course, you should also activate the categories. Fram (talk) 16:55, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
Formating refs
Thanks for Pitbull (film) and Courage (2011 film). I noticed you added a bare reference, which I formatted. Please note that bare links like that are in danger of being affected by link rot, plus they are not informative for the readers. You can easily format those links either by running the refill script which is linked in my edit summary, of if you are using the visual editor, the auto generate citation function. They are all pretty easy to use, mostly automated, and will make your articles look better with just few clicks. Let mw know if you have any questions. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 23:35, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

An article you recently created, Levana Finkelstein, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. — InsertCleverPhraseHere 14:19, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. BangJan1999 22:23, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
Invitation to join Women in Red
Thank you for creating several articles on women and their works over the past couple of months.

If you would just like to receive messages about our activities without becoming a member, you can simply add your name to our mailing list. If you would prefer to not receive additional notices of our monthly activities, you can let us know on our opt-out list. In any case, thank you for actively contributing to the coverage of women (currently, 17.09% of English Wikipedia's biographies).
Hi. I'm just letting you know that I have removed your account from the Autopatroled user group. I think you will benefit more by having your pages checked by a New Page Reviewer. This will not affect your ability to create pages in any way. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 17:56, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Municipalities of Venezuela
Kannst Du https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Municipalities_of_Venezuela durchschauen, die Municipality-Artikel sollten alle in der Form "X Municipality" sein, so wie bei z.B. bei US counties. Der Typname im Artikelnamen existiert um einen stabileren und klareren Namen zu haben, wird also nicht nur zur Begriffsklärung genutzt. Weiters sollte es wo nötig immer ", statename" sein, nie ", Venezuela". 77.179.112.215 (talk) 09:53, 26 November 2017 (UTC)
