Hi.  It's important to introduce background information for musicals.  Please don't delete it.  See, for example, ''[[Hair (musical)]]'', ''[[Flower Drum Song]]'' and ''[[Carousel (musical)]]''.  All of these have been reviewed by numerous editors and promoted to GA-class or FA-class.  Also, please see our guidelines at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Musical Theatre/Article Structure]].  Also see [[WP:LEAD]], which explains that there should be a summary of the whole article in the Lead, and then the article is laid out at full length below.  I know the article is just a short article now, but eventually it will be expanded with more information.  WP:MUSICALS guidelines about background/history sections says that the section should answer the following questions:
* What is the source material for this work? What is notable about the older work or how has the musical changed its focus?
* How did this musical come to be written and/or produced?
* Whose idea was it to make this musical?
* Was this musical started in any workshops or previews? What was unusual about them? (For example, in a workshop of the precursor to Dreamgirls, Nell Carter's performance influenced how the show developed, and this should be addressed in this section.)  --  [User:Ssilvers|Ssilvers]] ([[User talk:Ssilvers|talk]]) 21:08, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

::I don't think we need the word "famous" to describe the film, if that's what's bothering you.  I'll delete it.  -- [[User:Ssilvers|Ssilvers]] ([[User talk:Ssilvers|talk]]) 21:24, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

:::Thanks for the message.  Yes, that's ok.  Of course the film IS famous, but we don't need to say so:  we can give the evidence instead - that it won the Academy Award.   Personally, I think we should add that it continues to be broadcast on TV, but I'll leave it to you as to whether you want to add that now.  I think it's worth noting, as it also makes it crystal clear to most readers that we are, indeed, talking about THAT version.  :-)  -- [[User:Ssilvers|Ssilvers]] ([[User talk:Ssilvers|talk]]) 21:34, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Do you know how to collapse the big Oz navbox at the bottom of these articles?  It seems very obtrusive.  Best regards, -- [[User:Ssilvers|Ssilvers]] ([[User talk:Ssilvers|talk]]) 21:21, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

:I suggested, as a compromise, that the 1939 film adaptation bore a stronger resemblance to the original that "many" previous versions.  Does that work for you?  -- [[User:Ssilvers|Ssilvers]] ([[User talk:Ssilvers|talk]]) 21:49, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your patience in this discussion.  I will copy the new sentence to the 1987 article.  I understand that you are familiar with the literature in this area.  Can you find a citation for the sentence?  We should give a page range from a source that compares these versions and notes which of them were more or less similar to the original book.  Perhaps we can cite to a chapter or two in the Swartz book?  Thanks for any help!  -- [[User:Ssilvers|Ssilvers]] ([[User talk:Ssilvers|talk]]) 22:41, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

:I added a plot summary.  Can you check it and add any important details?  For instance, after the Wizard takes off in his rocket ship, does Glinda show up, like in the film, or does Dorothy make a journey to Glinda's home, like in the novel?  All the best!  -- [[User:Ssilvers|Ssilvers]] ([[User talk:Ssilvers|talk]]) 17:35, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

I am very skeptical about the suitability of the Baum book being in the Alice template. -- [[User:Evertype|Evertype]]·[[User_talk:Evertype|✆]] 15:52, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

::Carolyn Sigler lists Baum's [[Dot and Tot of Merryland]], [[The Magical Monarch of Mo]], and [[The Wonderful Wizard of Oz]] all three in her bibliography (though she does not annotate it)... indeed the Wonderful Wizard is a story about "girl who goes to otherworld and has adventures" while if I understand it the Magical Monarch is a set of stories without a common character through them. (I could be wrong; I haven't read it). Is there more in Baum criticism that discusses the nature of the imitation or influence? -- [[User:Evertype|Evertype]]·[[User_talk:Evertype|✆]] 19:19, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Two things:

# Remember the General Notability Guideline.  Being a character in a book ≠ being noteworthy enough for a Wikipedia article.  The threshold is sources; all the nominated articles have source problems; and in addition were stubs and are from some of the lesser-known books  
# Questioning my competency can be construed a personal attack

==Calling me a vandalizing deletionist==
[http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=List_of_Oz_characters&action=historysubmit&diff=422730612&oldid=422730521 Excuse me?]  If you haven’t noticed, I’ve '''''added''''' 32KB of content to this article even if you take off the list, and 56KB of content if you don’t.  That doesn’t sound like vandalizing deletionism to me, that sounds like talking a craptacular list of redlinks and making it into a decent article.  And just because you haven’t written the blurbs (''I’ve'' been the one writing most of the blurbs around here), you can just add the blurbs as you write them '''''[[User talk:Purplebackpack89#top|<span style="color:#660066;">Purpleback</span>]][[User:Purplebackpack89|<span style="color:#000000;">pack</span>]][[User:Purplebackpack89/C|<span style="color:gold;">89</span>]]<span style="color:#FF9900;">≈≈≈≈</span>''''' 18:52, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

== Calling good faith edits vandalism ==

Please do not use the word "vandalism" to describe good faith edits in a content dispute. "Vandalism" has a very specific meaning on Wikipedia, which you can read about at [[WP:VANDAL]]; the quick summary is that vandalism is something which indisputably is done to damage the encyclopedia.  Purplebackpack's reversion of your addition is a content dispute, and clearly not vandalism.  Calling another editor's good faith edits vandalism is generally considered to be a personal attack, and thus not allowed under [[WP:NPA]].

Furthermore, you need to respect the standard [[WP:BRD|BRD]] editing process--that is, if you add something to an article, and another editor reverts it, don't re-add the information and thus start an [[WP:Edit warring|edit war]].  Instead, discuss it on the talk page until consensus is reached (which is clearly not the case yet).  Thanks. [[User:Qwyrxian|Qwyrxian]] ([[User talk:Qwyrxian|talk]]) 21:18, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

==Edit war==
Hello. You appear to be involved in an [[WP:EW|edit war]] on [[ List of Oz characters ‎ ]].  While [[WP:3RR|the three-revert rule]] is hard and fast, please be aware that you can be blocked for edit warring without making 3 reverts to an article in 24 hours. You are not entitled to 3 reverts and are expected to cooperatively engage other editors on talk pages rather than reverting their edits.  Note that posting your thoughts on the talk page alone is not a license to continue reverting. You must reach consensus.  Continued edit warring may cause you to be blocked.

== Re: Snake deity ==

Replying to your post at [[Talk:Egyptian pantheon]]:

There were a lot (a ''lot'') of gods that could be represented by cobras ([[Meretseger]], [[Wadjet]], and [[Renenutet]], for example). You say the snake god didn't have a cobra hood, but it's possible that it was a cobra depicted without its hood spread; I've never heard of such a thing, but there's tremendous room for variation in Egyptian art. The only god that I'm sure was consistently shown as a snake without a hood was [[Apep]], but I've never seen him in human-animal form, just as a really long snake. My best guess would be one of the bizarre demons of the [[Duat]], who are shown en masse in funerary texts but don't have much individual identity.

All this assumes, of course, that the wall display was based on genuine Egyptian art, rather than something made up in modern times. [[User:A. Parrot|A. Parrot]] ([[User talk:A. Parrot|talk]]) 20:50, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

==[[Leonard Kastle]] has passed away.  I thought you might want to know==
His Memorial service is tomorrow in Colonie, NY.  I left, under external links, a link to the Albany Times Union Obit.  They allow a Legacy book feature for people to leave condolences.  I know you admired his work so I felt I should at least tell you this.  I also was sent a photo, from his Pastor, with permission to use it in his article.  I'm not too sure how to do that.  I used to know but my brain overflowed.  Can I send you a link to the photo?  BTW, I am very sorry for your loss if you also knew him or studied with him as I did.  I'm trying to write something to be read tomorrow and get it to them in time.  His Pastor also sent me a digital copy of the announcement of his death to his Parish.  Leonard's conversion to Christianity is one of the biggest reasons he never made another film.  All the scripts he wrote, beautifully written ones, had a redemptive theme to them.  When I worked in Development, I passed two of my favorites to every producer I could, including Mel Gibson, but at that stage in his life, he just wanted murder & mayhem as did the others, hoping for the next Honey Moon Killers.

I'd like to see if we can add a paragraph about Leonard's teaching and it's impact.  If I manage to wrote my eulogy  and it's published eventually, it might be quotable.

== [[Vulva]] at [[Vagina]] article ==

Hello, Scottandrewhutchins. What do you mean by [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Vagina&diff=423245631&oldid=423008787 this edit?] How is it not clear that this particular vulva is shaven? Clicking on the image clearly shows that this is a shaven vulva. It is not a natural state (as though the woman doesn't need to shave), and it is not a child's vulva. Which is why I reverted you on that. If you plan on reverting me without discussion, I will be bringing in other editors on this matter. It's a pretty clear-cut case as far as I'm concerned.

== Joyce Drake ==

<s>e</s>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I'm undertaking work re Drake which IMO is the friendliest possible approach to your efforts, and it seems worthwhile trying to clarify that for your information.<br /><!-- 
 -->&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Incidentally, FWIW it may help you to know that it is clearly ''not'' "[his] new book" in which she is mentioned, as he wrote -- per the blacklisted URL www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&tag=mozilla-20&index=blended&link_code=qs&field-keywords=%26%2334%3BThe%20Worst%20Album%20Covers%20in%20the%20World%26%2334%3B&sourceid=Mozilla-search -- a follow-on in 2005.)<br /><!-- 
 -->&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The rough-handling approach would be simple reversion of the Dab [[Joyce (singer)]] back to the Rdr (which survives to preserve the addressability via external links to the SAmerican singer). This is justified by the guideline [[WP:DabRL]], part of the navigational doctrine that we Dab actual articles (and not potential ones).<br /><!-- 
 -->&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Instead, i intend to apply that only after applying the guideline against [[WP:incomplete disambiguation]]s (which IMO is based on their dispensibility, and the difficulty of maintaining them). The difference that will make is that the edit history of your and others' reverted edits will be trackable within the Dab page's history, rather than only in the fairly obscure  blind alley of the Rdr's history. Without forming any opinion about the notability of JD, i think it will be feasible to write at least a stub about her, and the presence of content from the (restored) Rdr's history in the history of the Dab may benefit an editor working on that.<br /><!--

== The [[Richard Wagner|Wagner]] article is in need of some help ==

We're in a bit of a pickle in the Wagner discussion page.  The issues concerns what can be in the introduction and what not, should it be shortened and are the chapters in the right order? At the Wagner discussion page there is  Edit War solution topic and at the end of it some courses of action that I was requested to list. Please help, it seems that the few old hags (me included) don't want to come to any conclusion. Just take a fast look.

== L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz ==

This title is in the list of [[Adaptations of The Wizard of Oz#Future adaptations]], with a 2012 release date. In the [[Template:Oz]], there's a listing for "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (2011)" in the film section. Are these the same films? And do you think that the film is notable enough yet to belong in the template as an important forthcoming film? and, if the template film is different than the 2012 adaption, which film IS it? As you probably know, templates should generally not have nonlinked or redlinked subjects, unless its patently obvious they deserve an article. in this case, i dont even know what its referring to, let alone if its notable.[[User:Mercurywoodrose|Mercurywoodrose]] ([[User talk:Mercurywoodrose|talk]]) 06:10, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on [[:Video Communications, Inc.]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[WP:CSD#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], such articles may be deleted at any time. Please [[Wikipedia:Notability|see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable]]. 

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit '''[[Talk:Video Communications, Inc.|the page's talk page directly]]''' to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact [[:Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles|one of these administrators]] to request that the administrator [[Wikipedia:Userfication#Userfication of deleted content|userfy]] the page or email a copy to you. <!-- Template:Db-notability-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> Best regards,  [[User:Cindamuse|<span style="color:navy; font-family:Tahoma;">Cind.</span>]]<span style="color:purple; font-family:Tahoma;">[[User talk:Cindamuse#top|<span style="color:purple;">amuse</span>]] (Cindy)</span> 22:01, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]] content policy.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

*'''Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating''' articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
*'''Be cautious about deletion discussions'''.  Everyone is welcome to provide information about [[Wikipedia:Independent sources|independent sources]] in [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|deletion discussions]], but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
*'''Avoid linking''' to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see [[Wikipedia:Spam]]).

==[[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[Toshimitsu Tanaka]]==
[[Image:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|48px|]]

The article [[Toshimitsu Tanaka]] has been [[WP:BLPPROD|proposed for deletion]] because it appears to have no references. Under [[Wikipedia:BLPPROD#Objecting|Wikipedia policy]], this newly created '''[[WP:BLP|biography of a living person]]''' will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a [[WP:V#Sources|reliable source]] that directly supports material in the article. &#32; The nominator also raised the following concern:
:<b>All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.</b>

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see [[Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners|Referencing for beginners]], or ask at the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|help desk]]. Once you have provided at least one [[WP:V#Sources|reliable source]], you may remove the {{tl|prod blp}} tag. '''Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.''' If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can {{#ifexist:Toshimitsu Tanaka|request that it be undeleted|[[Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion|request that it be undeleted]]}} when you are ready to add one.<!-- Template:ProdwarningBLP --> --[[User:DAJF|DAJF]] ([[User talk:DAJF|talk]]) 06:51, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

I'm writing an academic article on people-participation in the 'production' of Shakespeare studies. 

I noticed that you had recently provided some edits for the Wiki Shakespeare page, and wondered if I might ask you some questions about that?

This project is at a very early stage so I've not yet refined or worked out a fixed methodology. So the questions are also not yet fully formed. (And I am aware that you also contribute to many other pages.)

1. What motivates you specifically to contribute specifically to the Shakespeare page?

2. Do you consider that your skills in this regard are general, technical, or specialist?

3. Have you contributed to other Shakespeare-related pages?

3. What's you opinion on how the Shakespeare page has evolved over time?

4. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the Shakespeare page in terms of its current form and content?

5. Who would you say are the target readers for this page?

6. What have been the advantages and/or the frustrations of working on the Shakespeare page?

7. What are your reflections on the process of wiki-engagement in terms of connection, community and collaboration?

8. In your view, are there any other questions that ought to be considered?

Many thanks for taking the time to read this!

Your edit-warring on [[Tea Party movement]] is unacceptable. The edit you reinserted is an extremely obvious NPOV violation (presenting a negative evaluative opinion as an undisputed fact and promoting it to the lead as if it were part of the definition), and it has no backing on the talk page.

A tag has been placed on [[:Super duper pooper scoopers]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Obviously invented|section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not for things made up one day|something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally]], and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], such articles may be deleted at any time. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Super duper pooper scoopers|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. <!-- Template:Db-invented-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:Legacypac|Legacypac]] ([[User talk:Legacypac|talk]]) 19:59, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

The article [[Koko Jones]] has been [[WP:BLPPROD|proposed for deletion]] because it appears to have no references.

Once you have provided at least one [[WP:V#Sources|reliable source]], you may remove the {{tl|prod blp}} tag. '''Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.''' If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can {{#ifexist:Koko Jones|request that it be undeleted|[[Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion|request that it be undeleted]]}} when you are ready to add one.<!-- Template:ProdwarningBLP --> <span style="background-color:lightblue">'''''&nbsp;[[User:Velella|Velella]]&nbsp;'''''</span><span style="background-color:lightblue">&nbsp;<sup>''[[User talk:Velella|Velella]] Talk ''</sup>&nbsp;</span> 20:25, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. 

Expanding coverage of Jewish women on Wikipedia makes these women and their creations discoverable, addresses the gender bias on Wikipedia in a positive way, and works to correct imbalances archival collecting practice and institutional projects that have historically silenced women's narratives.

A training session on editing Wikipedia will be held at 12:30 pm. Experienced Wikipedians will be on-hand to assist throughout the day. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand. 

Light refreshments will be provided.

Make edits! Ask questions! Be bold!

Join us for a full Saturday of social Wikipedia editing at the [[Museum of Modern Art]] (drop-in any time!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to the lives and works of Latin American artists.

The ''WikiArte'' (Wiki Arte y Cultura Latinoamerica) edit-a-thon is a global campaign to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Latin American arts and culture and to counter geocultural systemic bias on Wikipedia. 

Featuring an opening Artists' Panel at 10am, with Sol Aramendi, Sharon Lee De La Cruz, and Marisa Morán Jahn, to be moderated by Rocío Aranda-Alvarado, curator at El Museo del Barrio.

The Museum of Modern Art and Fundacion Cisneros/Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros are uniting with international allies to focus on the lives and works of Latin American artists, architects and designers.  With keystone events scheduled for October 22 in New York City and other cities throughout the month (Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Caracas, & others), the campaign aims to further similar goals to [[Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism|Art+Feminism]].

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. Introductory training on the basics of Wikipedia editing will be given throughout the edit-a-thon. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand.

== Europe 10,000 Challenge invite ==

Hi. The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge]] has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland [[Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge]]. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like [[Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic)]]. For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon]], sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --[[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

On the last Sunday of every month, the Boardroom at [https://www.acehotel.com/newyork Ace Hotel New York] hosts Action Equals History — a unique opportunity for New Yorkers to learn hands-on in a technology training/workshop session about the mechanics, practices and benefits of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia projects. This is an opportunity for all to gather, share and work collectively towards a more robust account of history.

For this month, and following on the recent [[Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism|Art+Feminism]] campaign, we'll focus on building better [[edit-a-thon]] tools for a variety of different thematic campaigns, and user-testing them with the community.  Towards a goal of advancing these tools for wider use with diverse local groups.

On the last Sunday of every month, the Boardroom at [https://www.acehotel.com/newyork Ace Hotel New York] hosts Action Equals History — a unique opportunity for New Yorkers to learn hands-on in a technology training/workshop session about the mechanics, practices and benefits of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia projects. This is an opportunity for all to gather, share and work collectively towards a more robust account of history.

For this month, we'll focus on Wikipedia casual editing, ways to use and develop [[Wikidata]], building better [[edit-a-thon]] tools for a variety of different thematic campaigns, and user-testing them with the community.  Towards a goal of advancing these tools for wider use with diverse local groups.

The '''Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met''' will be the [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]]'s second edit-a-thon, hosted on '''Sunday November 19, 2017''' in the Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City.

Following the first Met edit-a-thon in May 2017, the museum is excited to work with [[meta:Wikipedia Asian Month 2017/Asian Art|Wikipedia Asian Month]] for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of [[Asia]]. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely.

== Managing a conflict of interest ==
[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, Scottandrewhutchins. We [[Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome to Wikipedia|welcome]] your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things [[Special:Contributions/Scottandrewhutchins|you have written about]] on Wikipedia, you may have a [[conflict of interest]] (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the '''[[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest guideline]]''' and [[Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations|FAQ for organizations]] for more information. We ask that you:

*'''avoid editing or creating''' articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
* '''propose changes''' on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{tl|request edit}} template);
* '''disclose''' your COI  when discussing affected articles (see [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI|WP:DISCLOSE]]);
*'''avoid linking''' to your organization's website in other articles (see [[Wikipedia:Spam|WP:SPAM]]);
*'''do your best''' to comply with Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Core content policies|content policies]].

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see [[Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure|WP:PAID]]). 

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted.  Thank you.<!-- THE FOLLOWING CATEGORY SHOULD BE REMOVED IF THE USER IS BLOCKED, OR IT IS DECIDED THAT THIS USER DOES NOT HAVE A COI, OR THIS TEMPLATE HAS BEEN IN PLACE FOR A WHILE WITH NO ACTION. -->{{#ifexpr: ({{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}} - 20180831215123) < 5000000000 | [[Category:User talk pages with conflict of interest notices|{{PAGENAME}}]] |  }}<!-- Template:uw-coi --> [[User:power~enwiki|power~enwiki]] ([[User talk:Power~enwiki|<span style="color:#FA0;font-family:courier">π</span>]], [[Special:Contributions/Power~enwiki|<span style="font-family:courier">ν</span>]]) 21:51, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

==  [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[:File:Anne no Niki - soundtrack.jpg]] ==
[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|alt=Notice|48px|]]

The file [[:File:Anne no Niki - soundtrack.jpg]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>Non-free album cover being used in a [[:WP:DECORATIVE|decorative manner]] in [[:Anne no Nikki#Soundtrack]]. Non-free album cover art is generally allowed to be used for primary identification purposes in stand-alone articles about albums, but its use in other articles is generally only allowed when the cover art itself is the subject of sourced critical commentary as explained in [[:WP:NFC#cite_note-3]] and the [[:WP:NFC#CS|context for non-free use]] required by [[:WP:NFCC#8]] is evident. There is no such commentary for this particular album cover anywhere in the article, and the use of soundtrack album cover art in articles about films or TV programs is generally not allowed for this reason as explained in [[:WP:FILMSCORE]]</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[File talk:Anne no Niki - soundtrack.jpg|the file's talk page]].

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Files for discussion|files for discussion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> -- [[User:Marchjuly|Marchjuly]] ([[User talk:Marchjuly|talk]]) 08:06, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

'''[[meta:Translat-a-thon/NYC/2019|Translat-a-thon NYC 2019 @ LaGuardia Community College]]''' is hosting the second annual Wikipedia Translatathon! At this event on '''Thursday evening and during the day Friday this week''', anyone from the public is invited to LaGuardia to join students, professors, and CUNY faculty in translating Wikipedia articles among any languages which attendees understand. Themes for this event include public health and the history of New York City.
 
New York City has a large immigrant population and great diversity of speakers of various languages. Among all schools in New York City, LaGuardia has the highest percentage of immigrant students, the highest percentage of students who speak a language other than English as their first language, and the greatest representation of language diversity. It is a strength of LaGuardia that it can present "Wikipedia translatathons", which are Wikipedia translation events.

== Your edit to the Glendale article ==

Hi. I've removed one of your edits to the [[Glendale, Queens]] article because your addition to the "Demographics" section is misleading, and because it contains an inappropriate external link to your own blog. The statement you added, {{tq|The area is plagued by high levels of bigotry and racism.}} is in reference to a controversy over a proposed homeless shelter. As per [[WP:NPOV]], such controversial information must be described neutrally, not using buzzwords like "plagued", and should be described in as direct a manner as possible, not by using said buzzwords.

Additionally, two of your three sources are opinion pieces, including one that is your own blog. Per [[WP:ELNO]], {{tq|Blogs, personal web pages and most fansites (negative ones included), except those written by a recognized authority}} are generally to be avoided, especially those to your own webpage. The same applies to [[Queens Community Board 5]] as well. Seeing as how you're a long-term editor, please take care to avoid these in the future. Thank you.

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of [[Banknotes of the United States dollar|United States banknotes]], yet only a fraction of these are represented on [[c:Main Page|Wikimedia Commons]] in the form of 2D scans.  Additionally, [[Colonial history of the United States|Colonial America]], the [[Confederate States of America|Confederate States]], the [[Republic of Texas]], multiple [[List of states and territories of the United States|states and territories]], communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, [[WP:WikiProject Numismatics|WikiProject Numismatics]] will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019|2019 US Banknote Contest]].  The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on [[m:Complete list of Wikimedia projects|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 [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019#Awards|awards]].

The museum is excited to work with [[meta:Wikipedia Asian Month 2019|Wikipedia Asian Month]] for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of [[Asia]]. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely. Asia Art Archive will host a sister event in Hong Kong next week.

[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|alt=Notice|48px|]]

The article [[:The Mad Mod Witch]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>Fails GNG</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:The Mad Mod Witch|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist.

==Godzilla VHS tapes==
Wikipedia's coverage of home video releases of various Godzilla films is embarrassing, and everything I do keeps getting reverted.  Pretty much all of them can be seen here: http://snakeandboris.blogspot.com/p/ameri.html The [[WP:RS]] standards being implemented are nonsense given the images of VHS covers and where one would find reviews of specific VHS editions, but I'm not going to fight anymore.--[[User:Scottandrewhutchins|Scottandrewhutchins]] ([[User talk:Scottandrewhutchins#top|talk]]) 03:42, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
:Hi. I'm reverting your edits as you are adding it from sources that seem to be from fan sites (VHSCollector doesn't suggest its anything but a fan built catalogue). If the VHS releases are important, we can dig it out in the prose. Per [[MOS:FILM]], we are not supposed to be add every single bit, just information that is required. Perhaps finding early home video releases etc could be beneficial, but its not really essential. Perhaps try to focus on updating these Japanese genre films to be more like an article like ''[[Matango]]'' or something.

Trying to identify the piece Troy made fun of was genuine, since it was definitely in middle school, which is too early for the six-parter. As far as <i>The Wizard of Oz</i>, I still have the program and can take a picture of it (I was the Guardian of the Gate). I don't have the program for <i>Sherlock Holmes</i>. In that version, Watson was played by a girl supposedly selected from the audience, and it was based on "The Red-Headed League."

The article [[Chris Fitkin]] has been [[WP:BLPPROD|proposed for deletion]] because it appears to have no references. Under [[Wikipedia:BLPPROD#Objecting|Wikipedia policy]], this '''[[WP:BLP|biography of a living person]]''' will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a [[WP:V#Sources|reliable source]] that directly supports material in the article. &#32; The nominator also raised the following concern:

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see [[Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners|Referencing for beginners]], or ask at the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|help desk]]. Once you have provided at least one [[WP:V#Sources|reliable source]], you may remove the {{tl|prod blp/dated}} tag. '''Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.'''

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbqxsJaTDQM The event will be broadcast live via YouTube]. Feel free to ask questions for the panel through the chat!

== Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine Conflict...please fill out my survey? ==

Hello :)
I am writing my MA dissertation on Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict, and I noticed that you have contributed to those pages. My dissertation will look at the process of collaborative knowledge production on the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the effect it has on bias in the articles. This will involve understanding the profiles and motivations of editors, contention/controversy and dispute resolution in the talk pages, and bias in the final article.
 
For more information, you can check out my [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_Wars_and_the_Israel-Palestine_Conflict meta-wiki research page] or my [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Sarabnas user page], where I will be posting my findings when I am done.
 
I would greatly appreciate if you could take 5 minutes to fill out [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdriEAkTQCq5Us26lxEqbjfw4jh3ktqTLaE8FN7fYY7Eph1Fw/viewform?usp=sf_link this quick survey] ''before 8 August 2021.''

Participation in this survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. There are no foreseeable risks nor benefits to you associated with this project.
 
Thanks so much,

Sarah Sanbar

My revert of your edit at [[United States Border Patrol]] wiped my edit summary.  The text added from the sources cited was fact, not opinion.  It doesn't matter where you get a quote from Biden, it's still a quote from Biden.  Please discuss on the article's talk page.  Thanks.

Hi Wiki-Yorkers,

We are reaching out as part of our community-building efforts at [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC|Wikimedia NYC]]. Our regional group is engaged in a strategic planning process to sharpen our strategy for the next three years, and we would like your input. Given your connection to us and your experience with Wikimedia NYC, I would be grateful if you would be willing to share some of your perspectives and insights as we think about our next chapter.

[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScDs0eLjMp4dF16GZBoF9osrR6wm-TTM4zdSuODDAKOvlsbQA/viewform Attached is an anonymous survey], which will remain active until February 28. Responses will go directly to Barretto Consulting and the Wikimedia NYC board will receive responses in aggregate and to identify cross-cutting themes. Please take some time to answer it and share your thoughts with us.

{{Clickable button 2|Fill out our Wikimedia NYC survey!|class=mw-ui-progressive|url=https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScDs0eLjMp4dF16GZBoF9osrR6wm-TTM4zdSuODDAKOvlsbQA/viewform}}

The article [[:Sylvan Place]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>'''Sylvan Place apparently doesn't exist, this just describes the layout of related streets and its former location. Notability not established with substantive sources'''</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:Sylvan Place|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> [[User:Reywas92|Reywas92]]<sup>[[User talk:Reywas92|Talk]]</sup> 22:55, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
