Hi Phantomsteve/Archives/2013, Please remove protection from VOSS Solutions, I have a new content for it. I made same request to Jéské Couriano and Nyttend. Thank you. —JOHNMOORofMOORLAND (talk) 02:01, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
- What do you think? Jéské protected it, but he's not an admin anymore, and his talk page has a notice saying that he doesn't want to be consulted for his opinion on administrative issues. I'm hesitant to unprotect without someone else's input. Nyttend (talk) 02:13, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
- Views/Day
- Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
- Quality
- Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
- Content
- Is more content needed?
- Headings
- Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
- Images
- Is the number of illustrative images about right?
- Links
- Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
- Sources
- For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 23:37, 17 September 2013 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for September 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Classics Illustrated Junior, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Puma (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.

Please comment on Wikipedia talk:Rutvik Oza
Hello! I would recommend you to just take a look at Wikipedia talk:Rutvik Oza. Oza is a filmfare award winning writer for Udaan (see http://www.movieplus.com/article-details/anurag-kashyap-redefining-indian-cinema-615/ and http://ibnlive.in.com/photogallery/14375-8.html). He has also penned hit movies including Satyagraha (see http://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/cinema-reviews/satyagraha-food-for-thought-for-fastfood-generation/article5079201.ece and http://in.bookmyshow.com/entertainment/satyagraha-film-review/25490). So, I wish you could look into the matter yet again. Thank you! PartheshPatel (talk) 11:10, 27 September 2013 (IST)
