Welcome to the Wikipedia!
Hello, and Welcome to the Wikipedia, Aelfgifu! Thanks for the contributing the link over on the Guantanamo Bay article. Hope you enjoy editing here and becoming a Wikipedian! Here are a few perfunctory tips to hasten your acculturation into the Wikipedia experience:


 * Take a look at the Wikipedia Tutorial and Manual of Style.
 * When you have time, please peruse The five pillars of Wikipedia, and assume good faith, but keep in mind the unique style you brought to the Wiki!
 * Always be mindful of striving for NPOV, be respectful of others' POV, and remember your perspective on the meaning of neutrality is invaluable!
 * If you need any help, post your question at the Help Desk.
 * Explore, be bold in editing, and, above all else, have fun!

And some odds and ends: Boilerplate text, Brilliant prose, Cite your sources, Civility, Conflict resolution, How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Pages needing attention, Peer review, Policy Library, Utilities, Verifiability, Village pump, and Wikiquette; also, you can sign your name on any page by typing four tildes: &#x7e;&#x7e;&#x7e;&#x7e;.

Best of luck, Aelfgifu, and most importantly, have fun! Ombudsman 21:11, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Louisa May Alcott
Louisa May Alcott was already in Category:19th-century American novelists. There is no reason to put her in a parent caegory of that when she is in that caegory.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:48, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ruby GELF library
I don't care if that particular pages is deleted but it just seemed odd that there is no mention of any Ruby GELF at all in the Wikipedia eg - https://www.graylog.org/resources/gelf-2/  If you search for Ruby Gelf, there are many pages of links and mentions of it. I don't know how to rename a page to rewrite it and I don't have time to set up another stub. Aelfgifu (talk) 14:48, 10 February 2015 (UTC)



A tag has been placed on Ruby GELF library 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 an organization or company, but it does not 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 "Click here to 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Uploading logos
Hey Aelgifu! Thanks for uploading the new Springer Nature logo a while back. It looks like you used the upload tool in the visual editor; that tool actually sends the photo to Commons, which is only for freely licensed files (Creative Commons and such). Logos are fair use, and have to be uploaded to Wikipedia itself. It's not your fault—our whole image situation is an awful, confusing mess—but I thought it might help you to know.

Happy editing!—Neil P. Quinn (talk) 06:52, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:Aelfgifu.jpg


The file File:Aelfgifu.jpg has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "unused, low-res, no obvious encyclopedic use"

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 notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:01, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
