Disambiguation error

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Dorchester Collection, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Private. 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.

2016 Arbitration Committee elections

[edit]

Hello, Slick1nz. Voting in the 2016 Arbitration Committee elections is open from Monday, 00:00, 21 November through Sunday, 23:59, 4 December to all unblocked users who have registered an account before Wednesday, 00:00, 28 October 2016 and have made at least 150 mainspace edits before Sunday, 00:00, 1 November 2016.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority 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 in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 22:08, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The 10,000 Challenge

[edit]

Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!

December

[edit]

On March 7 last, the National Business Review published the following paragraph.

"When the contracts start in October, Go Bus will supply 89 buses, mostly brand new low-emission buses built in New Zealand. The company said it would invest $40 million in new vehicles, equipment and two new depot facilities, with 250 new driver and management jobs created."

That paragraph is identical to a paragraph you included in the Draft:Ngai Tahu Holdings article. Is there other copyvio material in the article? Moriori (talk) 02:50, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that. All references are copy and pasted directly from the article and paraphrased. I must've forgotten to paraphrase this certain paragraph. I've gone through and paraphrased the paragraph that you've pointed out. Slick1nz 11.12, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

How about making an effort to edit collegially?

[edit]

You couldn't possibly have missed yesterday's edits made before your overnight edits. And yet you inserted material that someone else has to change. For instance, it's Ngāi Tahu Holdings not Ngai Tahu Holdings, Ngāi Tahu Property not Ngai Tahu Property, Ngāi Tahu Tourism not Ngai Tahu Tourism, Ngāi Tahu Farming not Ngai Tahu Farming, etc. The "Ngāi" style was consistent throughout the article, and in its name, so it would have been helpful for you to follow that convention.
