Disambiguation link notification for October 7

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mawson Trail, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Wilmington, Melrose and Craddock. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Orphaned non-free image File:Leaflet example.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Leaflet example.png. 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. Stefan2 (talk) 23:15, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Stevage (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Caught by a web host block (209.95.32.0/19). I'm using a VPN through IPVanish - mostly in response to recent metadata retention laws. I'm logged in using my account, and am in good standing. I'm not sure why I shouldn't be able to edit Wikipedia this way? Stevage 02:14, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

As explained by Jeremy, open proxy blocks are not usually 'anon. only', so logged in users cannot edit through them. PhilKnight (talk) 00:19, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Wikipedia does not allow editing through open proxies or anonymising services. This is partially because such services are depressingly abused routinely (especially by banned users) and partially because Wikipedia identifies anonymous users by their IP addresses. While there is a workaround it isn't granted unless there's a reason editing through a closed proxy/with the anonymising service off is impossible. —Jeremy v^_^v ^Bori! 07:33, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It seems so strange that editing is prevented on the basis of IP first, rather than account. Surely the fact that I'm logged in with my not-banned account is enough to verify that I'm not an unwanted user. Hmph. Stevage 11:31, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

IP blocks can actually be set to allow registered users to edit through them. Open proxy blocks, however, generally aren't flagged with "anon. only". —Jeremy v^_^v ^Bori! 19:01, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: GeoPackage (December 18)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:

This submission's references do not adequately evidence the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of websites and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:GeoPackage and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also get Wikipedia's Live Help real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your draft article, Draft:GeoPackage

Hello, Stevage. It has been over six months since you last edited your Articles for Creation draft article submission, "GeoPackage".

In accordance with our policy that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Puffin ^{Let's talk!} 08:53, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Larry Donovan (bridge jumper)

On 22 October 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Larry Donovan (bridge jumper), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Larry Donovan (bridge jumper)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

Speedy deletion nomination of Financial Risk Manager

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Financial Risk Manager, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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.

Research on Backlogs

Hi Stevage,

I'm Pau Giner, a member of the Wikimedia Design team. We are interested in providing better support to some of the activities that experienced editors do. In particular, we want to understand better how backlogs work and the issues that users may find when adding the work to be done, and finding/completing this work.

We are organising a series of short interview sessions, and we consider you as an experienced editor are an ideal candidate to participate. In order to participate you can fill this form that collects the basic information for us to schedule a session and contact you back. If you know other users that may provide useful information in this area, feel free to recommend them to participate too.

The sessions will use Google Hangouts, which is a browser-based videoconference tool, but using a camera is totally optional. We use this tool since it will allow you to share your screen and show how you do your on-wiki activities in more detail. If you prefer a different format/tool, please let us know.

Thanks! --Pginer-WMF (talk) 10:08, 28 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Can you help me with WP:EASTEREGG?

Hi there,

I've been having difficulty lately with some users who have limited experience with hypertext, and who don't really understand the concept of WP:EASTEREGG.

The typical situation is:

I'll make a completely uncontentious edit correcting some arbitrarily-titled link.
A random user will undo it claiming that it's not an easter egg.
I'll make the edit again, point out that it is an easter egg, linking WP:EASTEREGG.
They'll undo it again, claiming that it's not that type of easter egg.
I'll make the edit again, pointing out that it is.
Again they'll undo it, this time saying that the whole WP:EASTEREGG article isn't any good, and that those guidelines anyway are just made up by random passing strangers anyway.
Wikipedia slowly devolves into TVTropes.

I think this interaction exposes one of the fundamental weaknesses of Wikipedia: Often established formatting practices will be overruled by the consensus on inexperienced users. And as you can see above, it makes no difference whether you can clearly show them the established formatting practices.

In order to help solve this, I've been trying to find good references to link/anchor style guidelines. But it occurred to me that users such as yourself (who've worked on the Wikipedia:Piped link article) might have some even better references for me to learn from, or possibly point out where I may have misinterpreted the guidelines in some way.

Kind regards,
