I see you're back to your normal prolific editing again, so I was wondering if you could finish off the Africa Destubathon and award the national barnstars as promised. I do appreciate the work you've done in setting it up - I think it was very helpful to the project. I just don't think these sort of projects should be left hanging at the end.

== Listifying red links in navboxes ==

I don't know where to ask, but I am sure it would be possible for someone to generate lists of red links from navbox templates like the ones in {{cl|Buildings and structures navigational boxes}} (and subcategories). This would greatly help in creating missing article directories for the Challenges.

Music venues

I'll take a look sometime. Working on WiR stuff at the moment. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 16:56, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much!

For the barnstar and the recognition! Well appreciated and a motivation to keep going with the improvements and expansions. All the best, Tisquesusa (talk) 21:54, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Rambling Ramblings

Hi Doc. Hope you are well. How are things with you? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 16:56, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks!♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:24, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Happy to hear that Doc. Films like La La Land and Moonlight are setting the screens on fire. The former, esp., makes me believe that musicals are here to stay in Hollywood. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 17:35, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Clive Mantle as Dr Barrett.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Clive Mantle as Dr Barrett.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:25, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Tencreek deletion

I've put a delete request on the Tencreek page as I think you meant Trencreek. All maps I can find show it as Trencreek.

A tag has been placed on Tencreek requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect from an implausible typo or misnomer.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by 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's policies and guidelines.

Category:Individual bikinis has been nominated for discussion

Category:Individual bikinis, which you created, has been nominated for possible deletion, merging, or renaming. A discussion is taking place to see if it abides with the categorization guidelines. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the categories for discussion page. Thank you. KATMAKROFAN (talk) 03:48, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Closing the discussion as Delete is bizarre. Recognizing that 'it is not a vote', the overwhelming consensus was plainly Keep. 7&6=thirteen () 12:48, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it should never have been closed as a delete! Perhaps another admin can look into it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:56, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hitomi Tanaka

I've created another Hitomi Tanaka page which was put up for deletion. I used sources from New York Daily News, Playboy, TV Tokyo and I don't see how it could really be deleted. You were involved in this discussion last time and I wanted to reach out.ChiefWahooMcDonalds (talk) 22:09, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Dr. Blofeld. Please check your email; you've got mail!
It may take a few minutes from the time the email is sent for it to show up in your inbox. You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{You've got mail}} or {{ygm}} template.

7&6=thirteen () 23:00, 16 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You are invited to join the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hitomi Tanaka (3rd nomination). As you have participated in a previous AfD on this article, you may be interested in commenting on this third AfD. Thank you.

Are we supposed to list contributions only by members? Because Ssven has listed contributions by those who are not on the list like Editor 2050 and Shakthi Saba. But I hope they don't have anything against being listed as members there. Kailash29792 (talk) 10:25, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ideally people put their own articles up, but adding entries by others is OK if they're OK with it. Might be better to invite them first though.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:55, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Getting to them between RL demands. :-) We hope (talk) 13:28, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. So many idiots about on here at the moment, difficult to want to write anything!♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:29, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That's why I'm doing maintenance type work. :-D We hope (talk) 14:44, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I see that Hotel Panafrica was Prodded but you were never notified. I thought I would let you know before actually deleting the article. - GB fan 15:08, 23 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If we can have 100 articles on hotels in the US or UK, you'd think just having two hotels for Equatorial guinea would be acceptable. Is there not two notable hotels in the country? ♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:01, 23 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merger discussion for Baron Hill (house)

An article that you have been involved in editing—Baron Hill (house)—has been proposed for merging with another article. If you are interested, please participate in the merger discussion. Thank you. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 05:51, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for El Progreso, Jutiapa

On 25 February 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article El Progreso, Jutiapa, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that maize, cacao, and achiote were historically the main crops produced in El Progreso, Guatemala? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/El Progreso, Jutiapa. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, El Progreso, Jutiapa), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:JamesTienTheChase.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:JamesTienTheChase.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:50, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
