hi!

Hi Smellsofbikes,

Nice article on Project squid. Should the title actually be Project SQUID? If so, not a problem; just click the move tab at the top of the article and enter the proper title. The redirect will be created automatically. Or I can do it -- let me know. Best, -- phoebe / (talk to me) 16:54, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

fixed :) explained on the talk page -- redirects are your friend.

re: journals -- yes ;) I was waiting to see if you'd notice ... nice to see you here too! I'm much more active here than there, these days. -- phoebe / (talk to me) 22:59, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

I loved your change to Avebury

Thanks for the good edit summary and for a very good laugh. Sharktopus^talk 16:56, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Wagatwe wanjuki moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Wagatwe wanjuki, is not suitable 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 click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 05:17, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

Concern regarding Draft:Wagatwe wanjuki

Hello, Smellsofbikes. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Wagatwe wanjuki, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 06:01, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Wagatwe wanjuki

Hello, Smellsofbikes. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Wagatwe wanjuki".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 05:26, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
