Proposed merger
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. I see you have proposed a merger of Lucas number into Lucas sequence. I think there are very good reasons why the articles should not be merged - I have explained these reasons on the articles' talk pages. If you want to consult other editors who are active in the mathematics area of Wikipedia you could mention the proposed merger on the WikiProject Mathematics talk page.

Hi, Danielklein!

I'd like to second what Gandalf61 just said. Please mention proposed mergers of two math articles on the math talk page before tagging the articles. Things will probably go more smoothly that way. Anyway, I don't think the proposed merger is a good idea, for reasons I've explained both here and here. Have a great day! DavidCBryant 12:34, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Danielklein! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created  are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the list:

Sinhala language
Kwamikagami, Danielklein --

Under "Writing system" we see "Sinhala also knows hal kirama and uses two differing virama symbols depending on the basic grapheme to explicitly indicate the lack of a vowel." Could one of the knowledgable editors please clarify this? I get the impression that virama symbols are sound-killers, but I could find nothing on "hal kirama". (I assume "knows" in this sentence should be "recognizes" or "uses".) Thanks -- Jo3sampl (talk) 19:27, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Re: Penny (Australian)
You left a message on my talk page in 2010: "Where does your information about the penny being withdrawn in 1991 come from?" The Swedish Rounding page used to have this factoid on it; it has since moved to Coins of Australia. All I did was mirror the information on a more useful spot.

Disambiguation link notification for September 5
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Colour names in Sinhala and English, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Orange (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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 12:14, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

Accent support
Hi Daniel. This is the only way i could figure to contact you. please forgive me if it is inconvenient. i am new to wiki. I found your input regarding the Australian accent very helpful. I am an American Actor in Melbourne (married an Australian) working on my AU accent so I can get involved over here. I want to write out my parts phonetically but feel overwhelmed as to where to start. The needs affected are my being able to contribute creatively and my need for support. Would you suggest a starting point, or perhaps I could buy you a cuppa and pick your brain.

Moved from article talk
Hi, I removed the following post which said
 *  What I mean is that no evidence or line of reasoning has been presented for IRV giving voters multiple votes. I find this claim interesting (although ridiculous) and would like to know more about it. I.e. how could anyone think that it could be true? Danielklein (talk) 13:38, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

Two other editors (including me) had already explained that our talk page guidelines limit article talk pages to discussing article improvements, and they are not just for chatting about issues. You're welcome to post ideas for improving that article, based on reliable sources. Thanks NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 13:44, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Can you please put something in the article about how one voter can have more than one vote or remove it as an unverified statement? Danielklein (talk) 13:47, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your interest in IRV! I'm not sure precisely what the issue is but I am interested in hear your thoughts.  At article talk, please quote the text you are talking about.  A good way to quote is to use Template:tq. (click that link to see the syntax). I will look for follow up at article talk.  Good to meet you.  The learning curve here is somewhat steep, but there is a lot of help available to those willing to accept it. Sounds like you are.  Welcome NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 13:51, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Articles with Sinhala-language external links


A tag has been placed on Category:Articles with Sinhala-language external links requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

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. Liz Read!

Deleting Sinhala films
I noticed that you are going to delete Sinhala film articles, James Bond and Bindu (already). I got your point. So there is no any offence about deleting James Bond film. However, it is not fair with the film Bindu. Because, the film has received positive reviews from critics, as well as nominated in many film festivals and won some awards. Therefore, as you said earlier, the film is noteworthy to include here. Because, it has some importance. If any Sinhala movie has positive or negative critic review or award nominations, I do not think it is good to delete. Reconsider about it again. I hope you will get the point.

Gihan Jayaweera (talk) 10:43, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
 * , I have detailed my rationale on Bindu's talk page. I have no issue with notable Sri Lankan films being included on Wikipedia (and they don't need to be notable internationally, being notable only within Sri Lanka is good enough). In fact, I would love to see more good articles on Sri Lankan topics on Wikipedia as I have an interest in Sri Lanka, particularly the Sinhalese people and Sinhala language. I will be proposing more films for deletion as I find them. This is not a criticism of your work. You can ping me on each film's talk page to discuss the notability of that particular film, as it's not appropriate to get into the details on a user's talk page. --Danielklein (talk) 05:41, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Gihan Jayaweera
Hi, please note that is an autopatrolled editor, that means his article creation record has been examined and approved by admins. I have also seen a number of his articles and consider that they pass WP:GNG so if you continue to target his articles I will be opposing your actions as in my opinion they are invalid, also I believe you are harassing him more than helping him, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 17:40, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

Important Notice
—— Serial # 10:13, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Arbcase "Discussion to prevent overzealous editing was derailed" Declined
In response to your request for arbitration of this issue, the Arbitration Committee has agreed that arbitration is not required at this stage. Arbitration on Wikipedia is a lengthy, complicated process that involves the unilateral adjudication of a dispute by an elected committee. Although the Committee's decisions can be useful to certain disputes, in many cases the actual process of arbitration is unenjoyable and time-consuming. Moreover, for most disputes the community maintains an effective set of mechanisms for reaching a compromise or resolving a grievance.

In all cases, you should review Dispute resolution to learn more about resolving disputes on Wikipedia. The English Wikipedia community has many venues for resolving disputes and grievances, and it is important to explore them instead of requesting arbitration in the first instance. For more information on the process of arbitration, please see the Arbitration Policy and the Guide to Arbitration. I hope this advice is useful, and please do not hesitate to contact a member of the community if you have more questions. Moneytrees🌴Talk🌲Help out at CCI! 16:02, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
