Disambiguation link notification for September 6
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Soviet Storm: World War II in the East, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cuban. 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.

Thank you for creating quality articles, such as Adolf Hitler's adjutants, and expanding them, such as Edda Göring and Adolf Hitler, for inspiring reviews of good and featured articles as an adjutant of precise sourced knowledge, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

 * Thank you so much. I'm happy to help. :) Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 13:30, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
 * By the way, Gerda, I'm currently expanding Um Himmels Willen, I'm convinced you know it? I myself watch it everyday, so I decided to expand the article - your input is welcome. Vielen dank. :) Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 13:43, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Interesting, sorry, never even heard of it, too busy here ;) - Vielen Dank! - ill is a very useful template for inter-language-links: the red link is replaced by a blue one automatically when an article in English is created, - please use abundantly ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:38, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Haha, ich Weiss, I always confuse V with F because I'm Danish. :) I did not know about the ill thing but I do now, so Vielen Dank :) Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 15:44, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Glad to help ;) - Ich weiß noch was: another very useful template is lang which should precede every term/phrase in a different language than English, every time it's used, - helping people with screenreaders. Use even more abundantly, starting with the title of Um Himmels willen ! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:46, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Another template? Wikipedia surely likes templates. I will use them as much as I can, but properly won't change those on Um Himmels Willen until later or tomorrow. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 16:00, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

Re: GA
Hey. I could, but I have a personal rule against reviewing an article twice, mainly just because to me more eyes are better. Wizardman 01:37, 23 September 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jonas- just a note to say that non-free images can only be used in articles, and so not userpages and the like. See WP:NFC for more information. I have removed the non-free images you were using on your userpage and replaced them with placeholders. J Milburn (talk) 14:29, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

GA Cup - IMPORTANT NOTICE
Hi, I'm Dom497, one of the judges for the GA Cup. It seems like you are off to a great start and I just wanted to inform you on something.

You should never pass an article when you are leaving suggestions to improve the article. Why? Because there are people who will ignore you (remember, you promoted their article so why does it matter to listen to you now). Also, most of the suggestions you are making are actually good ones...in the sense that if the nominator ignores them, the article doesn't meet GA standards....so if you ever make suggestions, put the article on hold and let the nominator address them. Please make note of this for future reviews. Thank-you and good luck!-- Dom497 ( talk ) 19:38, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Dom497, as I stated on the review pages, the majority of the points I made are suggestions, which means the editors who worked on the article will make the final decision about implementing them. If the GA-nominator or another major contributor decides to ignore the suggestions or fix the errors mentioned (which no one has done so far) I will change it myself. In any case, I don't pass articles which contain major errors. But thanks for the notice. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 19:45, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Jonas, I'm Figureskatingfan, another GA Cup judge. You should know that you're missing out on some potentially valuable points by passing these articles so quickly.  Remember, there's a section for review length.  If the article's nominator has a response, that counts towards the points total.  We highly suggest that you wait for a response.  Remember, nominators have a week to respond, and if they don't, the article should be failed.  Also remember that the point is to improve articles.  If you say that an article's prose should be improved, the nominator should have an opportunity to do that before the article is passed to GA.  In the meantime, we won't award any points until we're satisfied that your nominators have responded.  Please let us know when that is. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 20:09, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Christine (Figureskatingfan), I'll just withdraw from the cup. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 20:25, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * What's wrong with what we suggested? We're not saying your reviews are bad...they're great to be honest! All were telling you is that you should wait for the nominators to respond first. If you still want to continue in the competition, I'll give you the points for the reviews already completed on the condition that you put the article on hold in the future if needed. But if you would still like to withdraw, just let me know.-- Dom497 ( talk ) 20:30, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Dom497, I'm not going to put my passed articles on hold per my comments on the review pages and per my comments earlier today. Neither do I want you to break the rules or force you to make an exception for me, because that's unfair to other participants. I would like to stay in the cup but I will expect to get points for the articles I review. I easily take things personal here on Wikipedia because of previous incidents. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 21:23, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I wasn't asking you to put the articles you already passed on hold. There's nothing we can do about those reviews anymore. All I was asking was for future reviews, place the article on hold (if needed). Regarding you wanting the points you deserve, we were never going to remove any points; unless you are doing something really bad, we will never take away points. Also, per the rules, you should note that the judges have the right to refuse/delay the awarding of points for any reason. And my intention was not to offend you in anyway.


 * In other words, you'll still get the points from your 7 unchecked reviews (once they are looked over).-- Dom497 ( talk ) 22:44, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Then we understand each other. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 23:38, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Then everything is good? Still in? :) -- Dom497 ( talk ) 00:18, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Yep. :) Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 00:54, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Stability of article GA candidate Gary Cooper
I'd like to review this article for GA but I have some concerns about stability.

Can you summarize for me the conflicts going on with the article and on the talk page?

Is there a way the parties involved could come to some understanding before the GA Review begins?

&mdash; Cirt (talk) 17:48, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Cirt, I don't recognize the "unstability" of the article. After my GA-expansion/improvement the article appears to be stable. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 19:34, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I was concerned by this edit, and in particular this comment. Can you explain? &mdash; Cirt (talk) 19:38, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Good point. Have a look at this edit. That edit is the work of a seven hour long improvement, so naturally I was somewhat pissed. But even so, I don't think there is any edit wars or content disputes or a serious scale. This edit is just misunderstanding and this comment was merely ... a notification. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 21:29, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm confused though, that filmography thingy is still in there, is that okay? &mdash; Cirt (talk) 21:39, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Cirt, my best advice is to start the review and then cite your concerns or worries at the review page. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 21:43, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, I may yet do that but I've asked for their take as they seemed to be the 2nd most active user on that page lately. &mdash; Cirt (talk) 21:50, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, I will be as active as I can in the discussion. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 21:52, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. :) &mdash; Cirt (talk) 21:59, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Suppose so. :) Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 22:05, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

Hrm, this comment by is not encouraging. Looks like the article isn't stable at the present time. Unfortunately, I suggest you remove your nomination -- that way perhaps you two can pursue a compromise between yourselves, or if need be, some form of WP:Dispute resolution. Sorry dude, wish it wasn't the case. :( &mdash; Cirt (talk) 03:38, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

You keep forgetting the last step in GA reviews
Hello Jonas Vinther. You have been a great reviewer recently and you are smashing the GA Cup! However, please remember to change the class on the talk page in the WikiProject templates to GA. I have changed 3/~17 and it would be great if you could do the rest. Good luck in the GA Cup, --  NickGibson3900 Talk (GA Cup judge) 07:06, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't understand? How do I change the class? Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 10:57, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Oh, I understand now. It's fixed NickGibson3900. Jonas Vinther (speak to me!) 16:04, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Turuma GAN
Thank you very much for reviewing turuma. I was busy with non-wiki stuff, so I didn't even notice that the review starting before you had passed it.

I reverted a lot of your minor copyedits, though. For example, "turuma" is a type of vessel, like yacht, so it's not supposed to be capitalized, and Swedish kollegium is related to "college", but has a rather different meaning. In this context, it's the equivalent of a modern ministry. Kammarkollegiet is probably the only modern Swedish government agency that still retains that term.

If you feel I reverted over-zealously, let me know. Again, though, thanks for your effecient, prompt review.
