re: Hanyang Univeristy
I haven't heard of deletion of non-US courses. My interaction with the WMF and such have been mostly positive. Maybe your course page as deleted due to some technical issues or miscommunication? If you send me links I can take a look. Regarding student blocks, I haven't seen this happen, through IPs of numerous public schools in US (high schools and below, not universities) are indeed blocked because younger kids have been found to be very prolific vandals. I am not aware of universities that should be affected by blocks. This is something you may want to discuss at WP:VP. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 12:44, 25 September 2016 (UTC)

You are the instructor for an ongoing course. One of the users you list as a member of the course is listed at the newly-created SPI. The other (the "master") is not. I am aborting a check I was doing, which appears to be largely a waste of my time. It would have been much easier if each student said on their userpage that they were a member of your course. I found you by chance, and these kinds of set-ups need to be tighter as they not infrequently create problems for socking cases, and the students risk being blocked, which is not a positive introduction to Wikipedia. I'm putting the case on hold until I hear from you, which I hope will be soon. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:06, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

Maynooth University
Hello. I noticed that a lot of the students associated with the course that you a running are editing the page of the university. While some of it is useful, it has also introduced duplicate images, underlining of words in the article and unreferenced information. Also, I would discourage the students of editing the page for the University that attend. There is a possible WP:CoI there. Thanks. Karst (talk) 15:36, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Auguste, I thought the students were going to mark their userpages so it was clear they were part of your class. I don't see that happening and I see a certain amount of disruptive editing. Even if it's due to inexperience rather than any malicious intent, classes need to be closely enough monitored so this doesn't happen.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:03, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

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)

AFD:
I just reviewed some the "List" articles on Wikipedia and there are many lists constituted of individual elements that are not notable (by a certain interpretation). I'm not sure this list is different from other existing lists. AugusteBlanqui (talk) 23:34, 11 March 2017 (UTC)

Issuing level 1 warning about removing AfD template from articles before the discussion is complete. (Peachy 2.0 (alpha 8))
Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with List of the names of children who died at the Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. This is an automated message from a bot about, where you removed the deletion template from an article before the deletion discussion was complete. If this message is in error, please report it.—cyberbot I  Talk to my owner :Online 23:45, 11 March 2017 (UTC)

That's strange. I have replied to the issue in a few places and pinged the editor who raised the issue. I suppose this level 1 warning is now part of my permanent record. AugusteBlanqui (talk) 23:54, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
