Hi Life684 - I've moved your new template {{Modern Pentathlon-stub}} to {{Modern Pentathlon footer}}. The template you made isn't a stub template, and the -stub ending is used only for that. Hope that isn't a problem :) Cheers, Grutness...wha? 01:03, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Do you think its a good idea to list the current top 16 teams in the rankings for the relays? Intoronto1125TalkContributions 19:58, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Life. I have seen you are a very active user in the sports section. I'm the owner of an international forum about sports, where people from all around the world can discuss about results, news, informations, predictions and much more. We are particularly focused on Olympic sports and on London 2012, keeping the forum updated about all Olympic qualifications. We collect results, informations, medal counts from each event of each sport, from Modern Pentathlon Youth A Championships to Triathlon African Championships, from canoeing world cup to women's road cycling world cup. People from all around the world can follow all results, support their country and discuss about that. Would you be interested to take part in that ?
Let me know.
Thanks.

Hi. When you recently edited Russia at the 2012 Summer Olympics, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Nikolay Skvortsov (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Hi. I am part of an effort to get Wikimedians access to the 2016 Summer Olympics as accredited reporters and photographers. Part of this effort includes covering the 2012 Summer Paralympics. Two Wikimedians have credentials to attend these games as reporters through Wikimedia Australia. As English Wikipedia does not allow original reporting, this is largely through Wikinews with a project page found at Wikinews:Paralympic Games. If you are interested in helping to get Wikimedians to the next Summer Olympics,I'd encourage you to assist with Wikinews efforts, and also to work on all language 2012 Summer Paralympic Wikipedia articles before, during and after the Games to demonstrate a track record of success. Thank you. --LauraHale (talk) 04:36, 17 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability 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. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:13, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
