I moved them to User:Ottawahitech/Bill 28 (British Columbia) notes. Please keep the talk page for discussion of the article. Thanks. World's Lamest Critic (talk) 17:07, 4 January 2017 (UTC)

Howdy @Ottawahitech , You just assessed as C-level Quality for the new BC Transplant Society. And too often there are negative comments by wikipedia users. So hope is okay to say THank You for being first contributor after my creation of the article. And also Level C that says needs more information and references is very accurate so I am thankful for your assessment. And also adding categories to the Talk page. I was hoping health editors with more knowledge about the subject or sector would be contributing sooner. So am glad you added something.

Cheers ! Canuckle (talk) 00:27, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

I removed [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Homelessness_in_Vancouver&diff=758856874&oldid=758839534 a question] you posed on Talk:Homelessness in Vancouver because talk pages exist to discuss the article, not the subject. Perhaps you can ask your question at one of the reference desks instead. World's Lamest Critic (talk) 03:12, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

:{{Yo|World's Lamest Critic}} You have blanked Talk:Bill 28 (British Columbia) several times and refused to participate in the thread that I started there: Talk:Bill_28_(British_Columbia)#Repeated blanking of this talk-page. I believe you are deliberately being disruptive and ask you to please stop. My talkpage should not be used for these types of messages. Ottawahitech (talk) 17:36, 8 January 2017 (UTC){{small|please ping me}}

::As I've explained here twice already, I moved your notes to a subpage. I attempted to discuss this situation with you here, but you did not respond. Please leave the talk page for discussion of the article itself. World's Lamest Critic (talk) 23:02, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Regarding my reversion of your recent edit to Public housing in Canada – please review MOS:OVERLINK and Wikipedia:Red link. Thanks, Citobun (talk) 17:37, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

== Proposal to speedily rename category==

Please see my proposal to speedily rename :Category:Companies of Canada established in 1972 to :Category:Canadian companies established in 1972 per C2C: Hugo999 (talk) 12:09, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Please stop with disruptive edits such as this: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Categories_for_discussion&diff=prev&oldid=760043048. Faking ignorance that you don't know where it goes and asking other editors to clean up after you is unacceptable. 2605:8D80:687:8040:E50B:A21E:AF0D:66AB (talk) 17:39, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

Listen there isn't a campaign to silence you here. The problem is low quality edits. If you look at your last homeless edit, it is of poor quality and is re-wording a news story. There isn't any meaningful information being added. If you are having such problems with reverts and apparently having your stuff deleted maybe it is time to re-evaluate and review the WP:GNG? SuperMarioWikiEditor (talk) 10:45, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

:Again please engage in a discussion on this. Stop shopping for someone else's opinion and provide some justification on your own please. You don't appear to be interested in collaboration, perhaps this isn't the place for you. SuperMarioWikiEditor (talk) 19:50, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

You participated in the discussion at Talk:Homelessness in Vancouver about adding the category "economy of Vancouver". There was consensus not to keep that category. I think it is reasonable to assume that the same applies to [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Homelessness_in_Alberta&diff=760879485&oldid=760879368 every other article on homelessness]. When working collaboratively, it is important to accept that others may not agree with you and to go along with the consensus. Thanks. World's Lamest Critic (talk) 16:52, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Hey bud - nice job tagging all those airports for WikiProject Canada! Cheers, PKT(alk) 22:33, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

File:Ambox warning pn.svg Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at :Talk:Bill_28_(British_Columbia).

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. You appear to be engaged in an edit war. Please discuss instead of reverting. SuperMarioWikiEditor (talk) 00:28, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

File:Information.svg Welcome to Wikipedia. A page you recently created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages, so it will be removed shortly (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests, and consider using the Article Wizard. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article. You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. You are now creating pages, redirecting them to other pages and linking your newly created page.

:This is about warring at Talk:Bill 28 (British Columbia). Per [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Edit_warring&diff=761938220&oldid=761937274 this comment], I'm letting you know that you and the other party can both be blocked under the edit warring policy. I urge you to reply at the noticeboard and agree to stop reverting the set of notes until a consensus is reached on where to locate this material.

A tag has been placed on :Ruth Ibanez requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not credibly 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 criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Dear Ottawahitech, I highly appreciated the (mutual) 'categorization-motivation' in 2016/17, and truly hope that the unexpected Wikipedia-block (at least for me personally) will not last indefinitely. My best wishes and greetings,

Roland zh (talk) 20:18, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

: {{yo|Roland zh}} thanks so much for leaving me your message a few months ago. It gave me a big boost when I felt I was being discarded by the community.

: Just wondering if you would still be interested in continuing the "categorization-motivation" we had before? For example I have noticed that when you create a new category that is underpopulated you add the {{underpopulated}} template to categories that are underpopulated. Since the :Category:Underpopulated categories is huge (12,100 entries as of now), few if any editors are working in that area.

: Here is an [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:New_Zealand_businesswomen&diff=752575124&oldid=743017817 example] of what I used to do when I could still edit. In that particular case it seems that the addition of :Category:New Zealand businesswomen to :Category: Underpopulated women categories achieved its goal and that the cat is no longer underpopulated.

: Am I making sense? Ottawahitech (talk) 14:31, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

::Hi Ottawahitech, welcome back :-) Honestly, my "categorization-motivation" as wikignome is time-limited by early 2018 since then hopefully the people of India 'bio task' should be done (then returning 'back to restricted Wikmedian's work (Wikimedia Commons), and on 'Zürisee' and South India content). In general, all the scheduled categories are established (and also 'some' undone, you know), and the categories that are tagged in the beginning as 'underpopulated' usually should have > 20 wikis, hence, I've already removed that tag. At the time being, from time to time, 'filling' these categories and refining.

::But, you are right, in general, I share your opinion that just a handful Wikimedians may be engaged to take care of these 'underpopulated' categories, but at least related to bios about people from India, imho the India community (project) does 'fill' underpopulated categories. In general, to women related categories, I was also frustrated that many of them were handled in a rather negative way, but xxx happens ;-) Nevertheless, hoping, you'll continue on 'your course', too, kindly regards, Roland zh (talk) 19:34, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

If you're interested in en.wp content, have you considered requesting an unblock and addressing the reasons for your block? It's been years and I can't think of why WP:STANDARD wouldn't apply. VQuakr (talk) 00:53, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

File:Ambox warning pn.svg

A tag has been placed on :Category:Seychellois women by role indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. ForsythiaJo (talk) 21:46, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

@Just Step Sideways, in 2022 you restored my talk age access but qualified this by saying I could only use this access:

• for purposes of appealing the block ONLY. if used for proxying again, feel free to reblock.

As I have told you on several occasions, I have no interest in appealing my indef-block but I would like to know, for example, if I am free to remove the box at the top of this page which implies that I have left wikipedia of my own free will. Ottawahitech (talk) 16:23, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

:I have removed the template with [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Ottawahitech&diff=prev&oldid=1206399885&title=User_talk%3AOttawahitech&diffonly=1 this edit]. As far as I am aware, you are not eligible for Template:Not around. Do not make any further edits to this talk page except "for purposes of appealing the block only". Do not reply to this comment. James500 (talk) 01:58, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

::{{yo|Ottawahitech}} If you can't comprehend why you were blocked and don't wish to appeal, all you have to do is just go away. Please don't ever ping me or otherwise contact me in any way ever again. It's extremely tiresome getting pinged once in a while about nothing.

The article :List of Nortel protocols has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Subject does not meet the WP:NLIST.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be 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 edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

:To SMasonGarrison: thank you for alerting me to the discussion in which you have Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2024_December_31#Category:Identity_theft_victims I created in 2014 for deletion. I believe a deletion of this category will be a disservice to the many individuals who are still not aware that anyone can be a victim of identity theft, even sophisticated people such as, for example, Ben Bernanke. Ben Bernanke's article is currently one of the items in this category, together with 7 other notable people who have been the victims of identity theft. I suspect there are many more such notable people who not yet been added to this category.

:Unfortunately I cannot accept your invitation to participate in the discussion because I am indef-blocked on the English Wikipedia. As a matter of fact, my responding to you here may be a further contravention of the terms of my block, in which case I would like my post to serve as an appeal of my talkpage restrictions for the following reason:

:As I have told the blocking admin, whom I am not pinging at their request, I do not wish to appeal my block. Before I was blocked at the discretion of Beeblebrox/Just Step Sideways I made [https://xtools.wmcloud.org/ec/en.wikipedia.org/Ottawahitech about 75,000 "edits"] to the English Wikipedia, and have continued contributing to other Wikimedia projects since my Block in 2017. I enjoy my recent volunteer activity more than I did my activity here, and do not ask for a complete unblock. However, I would still like to be able to communicate with fellow wikipedia editors and request the removal of the restrictions that have been imposed on my user-talk.

:Notice to the admin handling this request: Just to let you know I am a very infrequent visitor to the English Wikipedia, and as such there is no urgency in acting on this request. Thanks in advance, Ottawahitech (talk) 23:26, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
