Alphabetical sort
Please refrain from changing the sorting system of the H&O section by placing the Christian observances on top. We had discussions over whether Christian feast day should be placed on top (or bottom) and the consensus is to keep the sort as strictly alphabetical. There is no strong reason why "Christianity" should be placed in the beginning. To avoid issues related to it (the religion), we decided to neutrally sort the H&O alphabetically; which means that Armed Forces Day or Children Day are placed before the Christian observances. By the way, thanks for introducing forgotten observances into the H&O section.--Rochelimit (talk) 04:31, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Minerals vs. Gemstones
We don't classify natural materials by their uses but by what they are. Garnet minerals may be used as gemstones, but that isn't what they are. Only a pyrope of gem quality is a gemstone, all pyrope garnets are minerals of a recognized composition. Pyrop e  14:03, 9 June 2016 (UTC)


 * This is a classic case of over-categorization. Specifically, this is categorization by a non-defining property. As I have said in many edit summaries, sometimes these minerals are used as gemstones but they are not always so. Being a gemstone is not what defines these minerals; being a garnet group mineral is what defines these minerals. All garnets are garnets, only a few of them are then are of the right optical and physical properties to be gemstones. By all means use a specific sub-category to identify those garnet species that are commonly seen as gemstones, but don't remove the mineral from the 'parent' mineral category. That simply isn't helpful, and implies that these minerals are only gemstones, which isn't true. All garnet gemstones are types of gemstones, so you could quite easily argue that "Gemstones" would be an appropriate true parent category whose entries should be diffused into specific sub-categories, but this isn't true of the mineral categories.

Non-free use disputed for File:Tunfatimahstamp.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Tunfatimahstamp.jpg. Unfortunately, I think that you have not provided a proper rationale for using this image under "fair use". Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. Note that the image description page must include the exact name or a link to each article the image is used in and a separate rationale for each one. (If a link is used, automated processes may improperly add the related tag to the image.  Please change the fair use template to refer to the exact name, if you see this warning.)

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted after seven days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 15:23, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

Hello Asarelah
I think someone is deleting my messages on managers talk pages ,i told many managers about this problem, but it will be deleted after 1 or 2 minutes, now i got message from another one telling me that its my last chance to vandalize Wikipedia !!, how can you help me ? --87.236.233.178 (talk) 07:21, 22 August 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what is happening. I suggest you try Help:Contents, read it over carefully, and see where to go from there. Also, I'm guessing that English isn't your first language and you may want to mention that on your talk page. Someone may have thought you were vandalizing because your English was poorly written and it might be a good idea mention that on your page to avoid further misunderstandings. I also left this message on your user talk page. Asarelah (talk) 11:25, 22 August 2016 (UTC)

Women by century
I am sorry if I offended you, but even if you disregard the fact that it is, in my opinion, not ethical to divide people by gender more than absolutely necessary (I, personally, feel very strongly for people with gender difficulty and the hbtq-community, who dislike this, except from the fact that I am a feminist) then my other reason remains: the category "18th-century women" would be astronomically enormous in size, composed of eventually thousands of articles, and categories who are to big are not very useful. If you wish to keep such a category, then why not at leas divide them in to nationalities. Thank you. --Aciram (talk) 15:01, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Melvin Coombs


The article Melvin Coombs has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern:
 * Fails ONEVENT; all identifiable sources for this name deal either with the subject's death, or another person entirely.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address 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 articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — swpb T 17:53, 19 September 2016 (UTC)

Please refrain from changing the alphabetical sorting rule of H&O
Dear Asarelah, please make sure that the alphabetical sort of the H&O section is maintained (referring to your previous edit for November 1 where you place the "Earliest" part on top). This has been maintained for years to ensure neutrality and reduce conflict with certain "groups", so please keep it consistent and do not introduce something new (e.g. placing "Christian Feast days" on top of "Arbor days"). Anyway, I reinstated the Kerala and the Haryana foundation day onto the H&O section but in general, the H&O doesn't include regional or city birthday. I decided to place a good faith for Kerala and Haryana foundation days just because it has always been in the H&O section for years.--Rochelimit (talk) 10:35, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

Carnival period
Hi, Asarelah. It is not correct to say that the Carnival period begins on 6 January. The first day of this period (Shrovetide) is Septuagesima Sunday, the date of which varies year by year, of course, according to when Easter falls. -- Picapica (talk) 22:16, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Hallmark day
Hi Asarelah, Thank you for your contributions in the H&O section. However, please refrain from adding commercial Hallmark-ish food day into the H&O section. Unless it is historically notable (e.g. National Doughnut Day), most of these days were Hallmark card material for commercial use and are gimmicky, and so unfit to be placed in the H&O section.--Rochelimit (talk) 15:11, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

Removing information
May I ask why you are removing holidays/festivals that are non-Gregorian calendar events from the section known as "Non-Gregorian observances, 2017" on the April page? (121.214.29.160 (talk) 10:47, 17 February 2017 (UTC))
 * Because a lot of those observances are from 2016 rather than 2017 if you look at the sources. I got a bit confused when I was doing it and I may have mixed them up a bit, but I'll get them sorted out asap. Asarelah (talk) 13:07, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay thanks for clearing that up. Sorry, I didn't realize some of them were from last year. You can keep the dates for the South/Southeast Asian New Year festivals the same, because most of them fall on either April 13 or April 14 this year as well.

March Madness 2017
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

expatriated versus extirpated
Asarelah,

Thank you for all of the species pages you are creating. I noticed that you are using the word "expatriated" (i.e. Naturalisation (biology)) when you mean "extirpated" (i.e. Local extinction). I wanted to let you know so that you could make the corrections. I've made a couple already.--Nowa (talk) 18:39, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive
G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
 * updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

For the Milhist co-ordinators, AustralianRupert and MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 10:53, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Michaelwtwitty.png
Thanks for uploading File:Michaelwtwitty.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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:16, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Charlotte Hallmark until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Yuchitown (talk) 15:52, 23 March 2019 (UTC)Yuchitown

Removal of categories
Why have you removed dozens of biographies from the category Jewish resistance members during the Holocaust, and other apparently relevant categories? There may be a valid reason for this, but since you have provided no edit summaries or talk page discussion it is hard to see what this could be. I am reluctant to carry out, or request, a mass reversion of these edits; but, if you can't offer an explanation, I may be obliged to do so. RolandR (talk) 13:40, 25 March 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:Chief Looking Glass.jpg


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

Also:
 * File:Eagle of Delight.jpg
