Wikipedia Stories Project
Hi!

My name is Victor and I'm a storyteller with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. I'm chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who make and use Wikipedia have so much to share. I found your username from the Highbeam application list.

I'd very much like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project, or if you know anyone with whom I should speak.

Thank you for your time,

Victor Grigas

 * Hey thanks, but I cannot speak/write english fluently. So I think, I'm the wrong person for that...--CennoxX (talk) 00:37, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Article Feedback deployment
Hey CennoxX; I'm dropping you this note because you've used the article feedback tool in the last month or so. On Thursday and Friday the tool will be down for a major deployment; it should be up by Saturday, failing anything going wrong, and by Monday if something does :). Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 23:29, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 22
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 65th Primetime Emmy Awards, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Nashville (TV series) (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Know about Twinkle?
Just wanted to ask, given that I saw you manually revert an edit. WP:TWINKLE is a highly sufficient gadget designed to make Wikipedia editing much, much easier. I highly recommend it. You can read all about it, including how to enable it, at WP:TWINKLE. Tutelary (talk) 21:48, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

Arrow video
You're missing the point. There is no context in the article to support the video. Context would be us already having discussion from Amell on the island filming. Instead, you're having people watch a video to learn about that context. In order for a reader to be able to learn what you want to show them, they have to be able to view the video (which is not an automatic for most readers). We should not have to force readers to watch a video to learn something about the show. The video, if absolutely necessary, should be used as an aid to information already present (e.g., describing the music when Jason appears in Friday the 13th, and then supplying an audio track so that they can hear). In addition, per MOS guidelines for visual aids, you don't sandwich text between 2 visual aids and we already have a quotebox to the left of the text where the video is.

Pebble (watch)
Hi, CennoxX. Regarding this change, what if it were to read "time since attached to a bike"? It just doesn't make sense as it is, because it sounds like it's showing the time, which it clearly isn't. CrisH7 (talk) 18:20, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
 * It shows the bicycling speed, bicycling distance and bicycling time. But now I understand the problem you are having with the current wording... What about “A Pebble attached to a bike, displaying bicycling speed, distance, and time.” or something like that?–CennoxX (talk @ dewiki) 09:47, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
 * That's much more understandable, thank you. Just as a side note, cycling is almost always used over bicycling. CrisH7 (talk) 10:07, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
