I've changed the speedy on that from G11 to A7 as the page is not overly promotional, however, please remember that per thisUser_talk:CAPTAIN_RAJU you shouldn't be tagging any page for deletion until it has existed for 7 days. That page had been up for a minute when you tagged it as not english and four minutes when you tagged it for speedy deletion. I'm assuming good faith here, that you've misunderstood your ban, but you should be patrolling from the *back of the queue*. Valenciano (talk) 12:50, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

ur mean u stoled my words

Hi there.
Sorry, to add a discussion in a wrong way but I guess you are also an avid Telugu movie fan so can we share our knowledge.

Regards, SBson1357 SBson1357 (talk) 17:50, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

Sorry about that I was just looking at the word Christ mas means more of Christ without looking it up. I don't think Christmas was Jesus Birthday but when a word has Christ in it. The focus should be on Christ. I was taught how to play on words. It is pretty cool, but I shouldn't have used it for this. I need to be more Christlike.Kimktsweetpea (talk) 19:54, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

Tech News: 2016-51
 Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Tech News
 * Because of the holidays the next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 9 January 2017.
 * The writers of the technical newsletter are asking for your opinion. Did you get the information you wanted this year? Did we miss important technical news in 2016? What kind of information was too late? Please tell us! You can write in your language. Thank you!

Recent changes
 * Administrators and translation administrators can now use Special:PageLanguage on wikis with the Translate extension. This means you can say what language a page is in. The Translate extension will use that language as the source language when you translate. Previously this was always the wiki's default language. This was usually English.
 * Octicons-tools.svg Wikis connected to Wikidata can now use the parser function  to get formatted data. You can also use   to get raw data. You can see the difference between the two statements. There are also similar new functions in Lua.

Problems
 * Some abuse filters for uploaded files have not worked as they should. We don't know exactly which filters didn't work yet. This means some files that filters should have prevented from being uploaded were uploaded to the wikis. MediaWiki.org and Testwiki have been affected since 13 October. Commons and Meta have been affected since 17 October. Other wikis have been affected since 17 November.

Changes this week
 * There is no new MediaWiki version this week. There will be no new MediaWiki version next week either.

Meetings
 * Octicons-sync.svg The next meeting with the VisualEditor team will be on 3 January at 20:00 (UTC). During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. See how to join.

Future changes
 * The 2016 Community Wishlist Survey is done. It decides what the Community Tech team will work on during 2017. You can see the results.

Clarification regarding the meaning of Mohannad

Ukondafu to be Ukondayu
Thank you for your messenge. I recently edited some pages that mention Ukondayu as Ukondafu. I'm a native Japanese speaker and never heard/read his name pronounced/spelt as Ukondafu. I'm not a specialised in this Ukondayu's study but am glad to know if there is any evidence that Ukondafu is correct. This is just my question to this Morimoto Ukondayu's true phonetic sound. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Omar Haddad (talk • contribs) 18:46, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
