Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Wilson Lee Flores, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tondo (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.

Hello Allen,
I'm contacting you because we need some Tagalog translators to help with the deployment of the new VisualEditor on tl.wikipedia. There are help pages, user guides, and description pages that need translating, as well as the interface itself. The translating work is going on over on MediaWiki: Translation Central. I also need help with a personal message for the Tagalog Wikipedians. If you are able to help in any way, either reply here, or head over to TranslationCentral. Thanks for your time, PEarley (WMF) (talk) 18:13, 2 September 2013 (UTC
I don't know if I can help. I'm a native Tagalog speaker but I'm more comfortable using English version of Wikipedia. Maybe I can translate a personal message for Tagalog Wikipedians. I can do that. Thanks for inviting me. Just hit me if you need more help. Allenjambalaya (talk) 05:52, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
Allen, thanks so much for helping out. If you could, here is my message to the Tagalog wikipedians:
Greetings Tagalog Wikipedia editors from the Wikimedia Foundation. I am posting to let you know about the VisualEditor (VE) editing interface. It is a new, visual way to edit Wikipedia. We would like to deploy VE on the Tagalog Wikipedia soon, and I would like to get Tagalog editors' opinions on the new platform. To test VE, you can enable it by going to "Preferences" "Editing" --> "enable Visual Editor". We welcome your feedback, and would like to know about any problems or "bugs" experienced on tl.wiki. Several other wikis are part of a rollout on September 24, we would like to add Tagalog to the list but would like to hear from the editing community here first. After the rollout, the button for the new editor will be displayed side-by-side with the button to edit using wikitext. Thank you for your comments, and happy editing, PEarley (WMF) (talk) 02:20, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
Okay, Tagalog message translation here (though I used some Tagalog-English for clearer emphasis):
"Mabuhay, Tagalog Wikipedia editors! Mula sa Pundasyong Wikimedia, nandito ako para ipagbigay alam ang tungkol sa VisualEditor(VE) editing interface. Ito ay isang bago at "bisuwal" na paraan na baguhin ang Wikipedia. Nais naming palawigin ang VE sa Tagalog Wikipedia sa madaling panahon, at nais kong tipunin ang opinyon ng mga pagnugot na Tagalog sa bagong plataporma. Para subukan ang VE, maaari mong subukan ito sa pamamagitan ng pagpunta sa "Mga nais ko" "May binabago" --> "Paganahin ang VisualEditor". Bukas kami sa inyong mga komento, at nais naming malaman kung sakaling mayroong mga problema o "bugs" na mararanasan sa tl.wiki. Ang iba't-iba pang mga wiki ay bahagi ng rollout sa Setyembre 24, at kinalulugod naming idagdag ang Tagalog sa listahan ngunit nais muna naming marinig sa komunidad ng mga patnugot dito. Pagkatapos ng rollout, ang pindutan para sa mga baguhang editor ay ipapakita na katabi ng pindutan sa pagbabago (o editing button) gamit ang wikitext. Salamat sa inyong mga komento at maligayang pag-edit." Allenjambalaya (talk) 02:53, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
Allenjambalaya, thanks for the very quick response, and I appreciate the difficulty in translating some of these terms. Excellent work. I have posted to the Cafe on tl.wiki - let me know if there is another noticeboard where it would be important to post. PEarley (WMF) (talk) 03:09, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello, Allenjambalaya/Archive 1! We are looking for editors to join the Europeana 1989 challenge, a multilingual Wikipedia Challenge where all of the participants are invited to improve Wikipedia articles related to the European Revolutions of 1989 in their own language. We have selected a short list of topics that may be improved or translated. As you have already edited some of the listed articles, we thought you might be interested, and accept the challenge. Hope that you will join us. Thanks!!!
It's not bad. I just don't know where to put this. I'm just a casual Wikipedian. You can suggest to put this in the Mobile Legends talk page.—Allenjambalaya (talk) 11:58, 2 October 2019 (UTC)
In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.
If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Cerebellum was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Jam Alas and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Jam Alas, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
Hello, Allenjambalaya!

I actually changed some words but I was not thinking of paraphrasing the whole part I brought to the article. Will try to put again some details. Lesson learned. Thanks for the heads up though. —Allenjambalaya (talk) 13:33, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Hi, regarding this and this, WP:AFC is completely voluntary and so articles don't need to be submitted through it. The main reason to draftify an article would be when it's far from being ready for mainspace (usually due to sources severely lacking), and sometimes for undisclosed paid articles. Formatting issues can be fixed in mainspace, and infoboxes [2] aren't mandatory. – Thjarkur(talk)13:06, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Hello! Thanks for commenting. Formatting issues are just what I know to edit but not the notability of an article. How about the notability? It is better for them to draftify them first before making them as articles for peer review? Or make it as an article first then have them nominated for deletion when they are not ready in the first place? I might be wrong though. Simply curious. —Allenjambalaya (talk) 15:43, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
WP:DRAFTIFY explains it a bit further – if it either has some plausible notability but is just unfinished (like not citing a single good source), or is promotional yet not a G11 it's fine to draftify (just remember to notify the editor). Other articles are usually kept in article space or nominated for deletion. (I'm probably misunderstanding your second question, but if someone submits something non-notable to WP:AFC it's just rejected instead of being moved to article space and then deleted). There is of course very little actual "peer review" for most articles, AFC mostly does basic checks to see if the sources are good enough, and so incorrect or biased material makes it through there all the time since few editores here are experts. – Thjarkur(talk)16:14, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply. It's well stated in WP:DRAFTIFY that moving an article to a draft space is not a backdoor for deletion. Well, that's what I did I guess. As for "peer review", sometimes actual editors do really come and contribute... not always though. So there. Thanks for taking time and explaining. Have a good day (or night).—Allenjambalaya (talk) 01:10, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
Have you heard about PhilWiki Community?
Did you know that there is a small community of editors in the Philippines who meet up and conduct activities online and offline to promote Wikimedia projects? Please take a look at our profile here. You might be interested to join. Thanks. --Filipinayzd13:03, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Edit remark
Hi. Here you pointed out an edit, assuming I made a mistake and that I had removed content unexpolained (ouch). Here I replied & explained to you that (a) there was no error, (b) the es looks correct. Since then, I have not heard from you.
Given the seriousness of the claims you made, I might expect that in the end you admit your mistake or refine your complaint (in case something is wrong still). -DePiep (talk) 18:05, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
Timelines and precise descriptions are essential to the discussion of government officials who underwent COVID-19 testing
Thank you for your work on List of Philippine public figures who underwent COVID-19 testing. As I've said elsewhere, I have issues with grammar and preciseness on the text. But in addition, I'm concerned that your edits de-emphasized the sequence of events. I feel that dates are important because they demonstrate: (a) the insensitivity of the act at a particular point in history (when there were few tests); and (b) which actions on which dates led to violations of the algorithm. To my mind, these are essentially "criminal" acts (in the popular, if not necessarily also legal, sense), so timelines are absolutely important. - Chieharumachi (talk) 13:59, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
@Chieharumachi: Thanks for replying. It was not my intention to de-emphasize the sequence of the events. The timeline was not in my mind when I made the edits. Though grammar and preciseness is not my cup of tea, I like if articles better if they have less adverbs hence the edits. In other words, I like brevity. The Background section you created is like an expounded version of the article's lead which explains why we have the list in the first place. But as the deletion discussion goes on, it seems that the article will be deleted anyway that's why I invited you to join in the discussion since I presume you want to keep the article. By the way, your username is in Japanese. チエ春町?I know a little Japanese.—Allenjambalaya (talk) 14:21, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
Like I said, I feel that these are facts for which people need to be held responsible, so I feel expounding is necessary. And precise language is necessary. There's a big difference between "was tested" and "had been tested," for example. But if it gets deleted, then I will just add the facts to the new article. In full detail, with unquestionable references. And history will be the judge of those 野郎. As for the name, yes, the name is because I love Fukuoka. Long story. - Chieharumachi (talk) 16:32, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi Allenjambalaya, and thanks for your Review of article Basketball IQ. I'm having also a parallel discussion with another reviewer, ie 1292simon. He acknowledges that his comment for WP:OR it may not be valid. Hence the only open issue is the one that correctly phrased by you related to WP:COI issues. As I also said to 1292simon, kindly notice that I have inserted inside https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_talk:Basketball_IQ , a respective warning of COI. And also explained the case, ie: "This user has declared a connection. ((Optional) Author of this wikipedia article and the Referenced webpage https://sites.google.com/view/basketball-and-iq/home author is the same.)". Furthermore, also in my User Profile (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Polizois77), I have insert again a relevant comment, ie: "This user has made a public declaration indicating that they have a conflict of interest with regard to the following Wikipedia article(s): Draft:Basketball IQ".
Hence can you please re-evaluate the case? Or can you please guide me how to overcome this obstacle? Many thanks in advance! Polizois77 (talk) 10:56, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
@Allenjambalaya: Hi Allenjambalaya! I will edit again the article, enhance it with more resources, and re-submit it. You wrote at my talk page that 'Maybe you can remove the math part and just mention it as an article section as the draft as it is now eats up the main'. Can you elaborate your quote 'just mention it as an article section'? Let me also give some addon info: Basketball IQ is a term widely used by Coaches, players, fans and journalists. Though there is no defined any metric on this. Which I'm giving via my proposal.Polizois77 (talk) 11:51, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
@Polizois77: Hello! Actually, if you checked the edit history, I was the one who put the definition (i.e. copy-edit or just quote sources) of the Basketball IQ as used by basketball analysts and coaches (not the metric). So far, there is no Basketball IQ article. I think that is a Wikipedia worthy article and chances are it might be approved. But as a metric? That's original. But take note that it might be first hit with the WP:NOT particularly this violation and it will be turned down. It should be at least be as established like this. But I might be wrong with this too.—Allenjambalaya (talk) 14:04, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
@Allenjambalaya: Hi! I have resubmitted the page according to comments. So, I have altered the structure, enhanced the content, and added reliable references. Kindly re-check. Thanks. Polizois77 (talk) 22:07, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
Hi Allenjambalaya and AngusWOOF. Given that the article has fundamental COI issues, I was wondering if something like a CSD that could be done on this draft? The purpose would be to avoid wasting other reviewer's time by preventing it from being resubmitted in future. Cheers, 1292simon (talk)
1292simon, if it's resubmitted without improvement, we AFC reviewers can reject it (put the stop sign symbol on it). CSD was reserved for blatant advertising / self-promotion or copyright issues. Most of the COI research/algorithm parts have been removed from the article, besides Polizois77's self-inserted article as a Further reading, but it could also be toned like an essay. If you think the topic can't be saved or fashioned into a stub definition, then you could try MFD. But the phrase itself is widely used and could go in the glossary. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:35, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
Thanks AngusWOOF, I agree that is a good approach. Allenjambalaya- sorry for spamming up your Talk page! Cheers, 1292simon (talk)

Thanks for taking a look at the article. I think that your concerns about copyright are mistaken -- as you can see from the citations, the source text is licensed CC-BY. Thanks for taking a look again when you can. Shockofsputnik (talk) 23:52, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
@Allenjambalaya: Yes, that is pointing to the archival guide, which is licensed CC-BY, which means that it can be copied with attribution. It's licensed that way so that people can copy and paste and not have to paraphrase. More information about CC-BY licensing is available here. This is not a copyright violation.

Hello and good day. First of all thanks for welcoming me, it's such a pleasure. I would like to ask. I've been editing and contributing here for quite some time already (probably more than 2 years) but I am unsigned. Everytime i edit, it is identified by various IP addresses (because it constantly changes everyday, when I stop edit for a time and returned) where they're all inactive already. I know something about sockpuppetry and it's against rules. Anyway, after quite some time, i can edit again (I've been blocked because my Ip address might be the same with the one whom they suspected to be a troll) and this is the only time I was welcomed. For some reason I choose to be anon, but if sometime (ex. tomorrow) I'll edit again, will the Ip address identified will be the same as the one I'm using right now or not? I choose not to sign up but maybe. Sorry if this is quite long.
@2001:4454:2FD:CC00:ADDE:686E:EF1A:10F6: Hello! I actually encourage you to use an alias and register as it will make you more anonymous than using your own IP address. If you use your IP address, take note that Wikipedia users can detect what's your ISP provider and even your location. And as you mentioned, your IP address might be tied to someone else's as it is not static or constant, and swaps with other subcribers of your ISP. If you have questions, you can ask in the Teahouse. Cheers! —Allenjambalaya (talk) 10:54, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
I dream of horses Hello! I am actually not sure about what the tag "orphan" specifically mean so I put a "good faith" revert. Sorry but I still don't understand what you are trying to say even you've explained it to me. To me, it seems that both orphaned and dead end article are the same. Man, my reading comprehension is that bad? Thanks for the heads-up. I'll read now. Cheers!—Allenjambalaya (talk) 11:32, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
