Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Lois Orr, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Charles Orr ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Lois_Orr check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Lois_Orr?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Welcome also to Women in Red. Perhaps you've already been a member under a different user name. If you intend to concentrate on women's biographies, you might be interested in our Ten Simple Rules for Creating Women's Biographies. Let me know if ever you need any help or experience any problems or leave a message on the WiR talk page. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 06:47, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

Please see note on your DYK review. BTW if you are reviewing a nomination, please keep your approval tick and comments at the bottom of the thread. If you are promoting a hook to the prep set, then you edit at the top of the template. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 23:28, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

:An additional point: the same person is not supposed to approve and promote a nomination. Different people are supposed to do these steps on a particular nomination. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:55, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

:: Apologies, it wasn't quite clear with the instructions on the difference between passing a DYK nom and promoting one. I thought it was one and the same. Apparently not. --Meanderingbartender (talk) 02:30, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

::*Thomas D. Keizur DYK nomination is still open. Brief text that states what you did during review process is needed to clear it. Something like: "16px Good to go. Article is long enough and new enough; no sourcing, copyright, or content issues were found. Hook has good sources and meets length and format criterion. QPQ was done." This let’s DYK folks know that a complete review was accomplished. Since this is my nomination, I'd like to ensure it isn't forgotten. Thanks!--Orygun (talk) 20:42, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

::Hi, it's been two weeks since {{u|The Rambling Man}} responded on the nomination template about the image. If it's not properly licensed, it should be removed from the article before it appears on the main page. Yoninah (talk) 21:37, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

:::{{ping|Yoninah}} one person's opinion is not a valid enough reason to remove an image. If they want to take it up at commons where the image is currently not in dispute. Otherwise, I see no reason to remove the image from the page or the DYK nom. --Meanderingbartender (talk) 01:13, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

::::This is not one person's opinion; he is an administrator at WP:ERRORS who often pulls hooks from the main page for incorrect image licensing, even if the image is just included in the article and not featured on the main page.

Excuse my English, but what in the world is the problem now? You like the alt hook; we just need another reviewer. In case you haven't noticed, DYK has been reduced to a skeleton staff. We have 3 editors regularly promoting hooks to the main page, and a handful of editors regularly doing reviews. Most hooks wait up to a month before any action is taken on them. Could you please un-withdraw your withdrawal? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 10:22, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

Hello,

I am E. Whittaker, an intern at Wikimedia with the Scoring Team to create a labeled dataset, and potentially a tool, to help editors deal with incivility when they encounter it on talk pages. A full write-up of the study can be found here: m:Research:Civil_Behavior_Interviews.

We are currently recruiting editors to be interviewed about their experiences with incivility on talk pages. Would you be interested in being interviewed? I am contacting you because of your involvement in Wikipedia’s Women in Red project. The interviews should take ~1 hour, and will be conducted over BlueJeans (which does allow interviews to be recorded). If, so, please email me at ewhit@umich.edu in order to schedule an interview.

Thank you Ewitch51 (talk) 19:37, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Nominations for the upcoming project coordinator election are now open. A team of up to ten coordinators will be elected for the next year.

They do not, however, have any authority over article content or editor conduct, or any other special powers. More information on being a coordinator is available here. If you are interested in running, please sign up here by 23:59 UTC on 14 September! Voting doesn't commence until 15 September. If you have any questions, you can contact any member of the coord team. Cheers, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:54, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
