WikiProject Redirect tagging

Hello,

I've noticed you added {{tl|WikiProject Redirect}} to a few pages in the mainspace. However, redirects should not be tagged, it is specifically for pages relating to redirects. Thanks! :) ~ Eejit43 (talk) 14:28, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

* Our first double issue in almost four years, although we will try to return to a monthly schedule henceforth (incidentally, the last double issue saw Markham's storm petrel at GAN, and this one sees it finally pass FAC).

A highly competitive first round of the WikiCup sees four Tree of Life editors advance to the second round: {{noping|MtBotany}}, {{noping|Fritzmann2002}}, {{noping|Ealdgyth}}, and {{noping|AryKun}}
The March 2024 GAN Backlog Drive starts today; everyone is welcome to participate and help reduce the backlog of GANs.
The January edition of our monthly rolling contest was won by {{noping|Quetzal1964}} with 100 points from 40 articles, mainly related to various species of marine fish. {{noping|simongraham}} was second with 80 points from 14 articles on jumping spiders.
The February edition saw {{noping|Quetzal1964}} win for the second time in a row, with 114 points from 43 articles. In second place was {{noping|Snoteleks}}, with 21 points from 7 seven articles on various unicellular eukaryotes, including the GA Telonemia.

Hi Jarrah Tree,

We've both been around a long time, but here you pointed out something I was quite unaware of.

Thank you again.

(For people who may have this watchlisted, Jarrah Tree was the first user to [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Shirt58&oldid=103600936 welcome me] when I had pretty much no idea what Wikipedia was about back in 2007. This sort of collegial work is what makes me stay here.)

Military History assessments

Hi, I notice that you have been updating a lot of Wikiproject banners, which included removing the Military History quality assessment rating. However, the Military History project asked to keep a separate rating to the centralised rating used by other projects. I don't believe there has been consensus to adopt the central rating, so you need to retain the Military History rating, even if it matches the central rating. From Hill To Shore (talk) 15:52, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Leonard Mann Copyright Problem

I certainly used the ADB page for my updates of the Leonard Mann page but thought I'd shifted things around enough to be abe to get by, but their edit bots must have hit a limit in terms of the copied phrases. I'll work around it.

I'm not discouraged by this. It's more the endless back-and-for arguments with disruptive editors that get nowhere that used to wear me down. But I'm retired now and have more time to work on stuff. Stay tuned. Perry Middlemiss (talk) 20:43, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

* The newsletter will not be returning to a monthly format (mainly because the author is busy failing every exam imaginable) and is on a bimonthly schedule for the foreseeable future.

The second round of the WikiCup was very competitive, requiring the highest points total to advance since 2014. Two TOL editors, {{noping|AryKun}} and {{noping|Fritzmann2002}}, advanced to the third round.
The March edition of our monthly rolling contest was won by {{noping|simongraham}}, who amassed 118 points from 21 articles on various species of jumping spider; in second place was {{noping|Quetzal1964}} with 109 points from 53 articles on marine ray-finned fish.
Quetzal1964 and simongraham were also the top two in the April edition, although Quetzal was ahead this time, with 68 points to simongraham's 48. In the annual leaderboard, Quetzal and simongraham are in first and second place respectively, with 291 and 246 points; in third place is {{noping|Snotoleks}}, with 76 points.

Indigenous Australian identity

@JarrahTree Hi. Out of curiosity, how does one verify Indigenous identity in an Australian context? In the US and Canada, there are things like tribal rolls, tribal citizenship, etc that can be used to verify whether a person is of Indigenous heritage or not. I've seen news articles about people pretending to be Aboriginal; that's rampant in North America. What criteria determines Indigeneity in Australia, aside from self-identification?

I have so much thank you for your conversation with me.

Did you remember 2 months ago at Feb 27th, 2024? You have congratulated me because I'm a new user at Wikipedia. You know, I thanked you because of your happiest conversation to me? Yeah, actually, thanks. Arief Azazie Zain (talk) 06:45, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

The Mount Magnet Leader and Youanmi Miner

Thanks for your edits to the article I created, The Mount Magnet Leader and Youanmi Miner. I had a question though. Is the "See also" section necessary? There's only one linked article and I had added the category Newspapers of the Mid West region of Western Australia which includes Mid West newspapers, the article linked in see also. I'm happy to leave it as-is, I was just asking for the future as you're a more experienced editor.

I noticed from your userpage you also contribute to Trove. I just joined today and am really intrested in Australian history so I think it's a site I'll be spending a lot of time at. Do you think it's worth fixing the transcription for all of the articles I use as sources? I plan on contributing as and when I can but it can take some time (e.g. I barely corrected a quarter of [https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/260089587/28990323 this] article and that took about half an hour). I just wonder if it would be worth taking the extra time routinely for articles referenced on Wikipedia, for example when people are checking references verify what's in the article.

Comment about comments about RfC: Inclusion of Noongar words

Quoting from [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Whadjuk&diff=prev&oldid=1224111852] ...

Please consider (next time, because this RfC is now closed) doing one of the following:

Get involved.
