Cissinae
Hi, Paulmcdonald! – I don't believe our paths have crossed much to date. Is it OK with you if I undelete Cissinae, which I (thought I) was in the process of redirecting to Corvidae a moment ago? Just my 2 eurocents, but isn't a subfamily almost always going make plausible redirect to the parent family? Regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 18:30, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
- No worries, I was just processing what looked to be a clear-cut speedy delete. Go for it!--Paul McDonald (talk) 18:40, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
Invitation to participate in a research
Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
Kind Regards,

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Legoland Discovery Display of Kauffman Stadium.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Legoland Discovery Display of Kauffman Stadium.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 seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Ирука13 14:23, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
