Disambiguation link notification for November 6

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

What Separates Me from You review

Hello ScoobyHugh. I've had little internet access yesterday and for the majority of today. I should be able to start fixing the issues with What Separates Me from You at some point tomorrow. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 17:47, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No problem at all. I hope you agree that my comments go some way to improving the article! All the best. ScoobyHugh (talk) 17:58, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review ScoobyHugh. Is it possible you could also review the other two ADTR albums at GAN (And Their Name Was Treason and For Those Who Have Heart)? I'm trying to get the band's studio albums to GA before their next one drops next month (October 8). I understand if you're not feeling up for it. Thanks anyway. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 12:47, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I might be able to review one, but I do really mean might. My advice would be to read through the criteria thoroughly to make sure the articles already meet the criteria, so that any review would be straightforward. I know it's hard to review your own work, but give it a go. Good luck in your goal anyway (I'm a ADTR fan myself)! ScoobyHugh (talk) 20:19, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge

Hi, at Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge we're striving to bring about 10,000 article improvements and creations for the UK and Ireland and inspire others to create more content. In order to achieve this we need diversity of content, in all parts of the UK and Ireland on all topics. Eventually a regional contest will be held for all parts of the British Isles, like they were for Wales and the Wedt Country. We currently have just over 1900 articles and need contributors! If you think you'd be interested in collaborating on this and helping reach the target quicker, please sign up and begin listing your entries there as soon as possible! Thanks.♦ --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:42, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Invite to the African Destubathon

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) 21:14, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
