Longevity articles
Flags are NOT used in longevity articles as they do not comply with MOS:FLAG. Adding spaces achieves nothing. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 06:43, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Sorry. After you first notified me, I didn't notice I was still re-adding the flags. My intent was to just re-add the other changes I had done, such as spacing and corrections. I made the right edit now. - Alumnum (talk) 07:42, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
 * ...and in the process you have changed several countries so that they are now incorrect. DerbyCountyinNZ  (Talk Contribs) 08:22, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Which countries are incorrect? I didn't notice a single one. - Alumnum (talk) 08:34, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
 * William Johnson, Johnson Parks, Juan Ramos, Arthur Reed, Shukhrat Aliyeva, Oberia Coffin, Mamie Evans, David Peterson and Sarah Hoover. All changed from US to Brazil. DerbyCountyinNZ  (Talk Contribs) 08:49, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh, that was when I automatically replaced the country names with the flag templates, but I had messed up those ones. It's fixed now. - Alumnum (talk) 08:57, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 18:26, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Strawinsky poster.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Strawinsky poster.jpg. 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:48, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Rejected Youth


A tag has been placed on Rejected Youth 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 band or musician that 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 deleted 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. StraussInTheHouse (talk) 16:12, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

We from Pitcairn Island moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, We from Pitcairn Island, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Invitation from Wikimedia Portugal
(English below)

Olá. A Wikimedia Portugal é uma associação portuguesa sem fins lucrativos, fundada em 2009, reconhecida pela Wikimedia Foundation como "chapter" de Portugal. A nossa missão é, em geral, contribuir para a disseminação generalizada do saber e da cultura, através do incentivo à recolha e criação de conteúdos isentos de restrições de utilização, modificação e distribuição, e da difusão dos mesmos; e em particular, promover e apoiar os projetos da Wikimedia Foundation, entre os quais a Wikipédia, com ênfase para os projetos nas línguas faladas em Portugal, o português e o mirandês.

Gostaríamos de contar com o apoio de (e reciprocamente apoiar) todos os voluntários naturais, residentes ou simplesmente interessados em Portugal. Embora fundada em 2009, a associação teve um largo período de inatividade, que estamos agora a ultrapassar. Vimos por isso convidá-lo, caso nisso tenha interesse, a inscrever-se como associado da associação, demonstrar apoio à existência de um "chapter" em Portugal, e a envolver-se em atividades futuras inscrevendo-se na lista de distribuição de email. Recentemente, a Comissão de Afiliações da Wikimedia suspendeu o apoio à Wikimedia Portugal, pendente, entre outras coisas, do apoio da comunidade de editores portugueses. 

Agradecemos desde já!

Hi! Wikimedia Portugal is the Portuguese chapter of Wikimedia, founded in 2009 and recognized by the Wikimedia Foundation. Our mission is to contribute to the general dissemination of knowledge and culture through the incentive to the collection and creation of content without restrictions on use, modification and distribution, and promote their difusion; we promote and support the Wikimedia Foundation projects, among which Wikipedia, with emphasis on projects in Portuguese and Mirandese.

We would like however to count on the support of (and in turn ourselves support) all volunteers that are citizens, resident, or simply interested in Portugal. Despite being founded in 2009, the chapter has gone through a long period of inactivity that we are trying to overcome. We have sent you this message to invite you, if you are interested, to enroll as associate to the chapter, demonstrate your support to the existence of a chapter in Portugal, and get involved in the discussion of future activities by registering in the mailing list. Recentely, the Wikimedia Affiliations Committee suspended support to Wikimedia Portugal pending, among other things, the support from the community of portuguese editors.

Brazilian general election split
Hello Alumnum. Not all general election articles are split into presidential and legislative (see Bosnian general election, 2018 as an example), and at present only one Brazilian election article is split (2010). The only reason an article should be split is if there is enough text to justify it. In the case of this Brazilian election, there is hardly any text regarding the presidential election that isn't in the general election article (only the bits about Lula and Bolsonaro's stabbing. If you still think it should be split, please join the discussion on the general election talk page. Cheers, Number   5  7  17:15, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
