Welcome to WikiProject Plants!
 Hi, and welcome to WikiProject Plants! Our scope includes any and all taxa of plants, botanists, and botany topics. We're glad to have you working with us on our project!

A few features that you might find helpful:
 * Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
 * We discuss our project frequently at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Plants. You can [ watchlist it] to keep up with the conversations.

Here are some easy ways you can contribute:
 * Images: There are articles that need images. You can search Wikimedia Commons for images. When you find one, add it to the Wikipedia article in the taxobox and remove the "needs-photo=yes" parameter from the project banner on the talk page of the article. You could also help identify plant photos on Commons.
 * Taxobox: We also have articles that need taxoboxes. See the taxobox usage guide for information on how to add a taxobox. When complete, don't forget to remove the "needs-taxobox=yes" parameter from the talk page banner.
 * Stubs: Consider expanding one of our stubs or create one of our requested articles.
 * Assessment: You could also help assess our unassessed articles.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page or the project at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Plants. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around!

Bizarre articles
Hi Flickts. Articles such as Spanish Vocab and Shakespeare 101 are non-encyclopedic and we don't want them. Thanks for your efforts though! There's a welcome message at the top of this page with links you might like to read about the type of articles we need in our encyclopedia. Thanks. ➔ This is REDVEЯS 19:12, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Welcom to WikiProject Schools
I would like to welcome you to the group. we can always use more active participants and you seem to be enthusiastic. I would, however, like to ask you to please review the assessment guidelines before you assess any more articles. Some of your assessments have been unwarrantedly high and have been reverted to their previous state. Please let me know if you have any questions concerning our assessment process and happy editing!

WikiProject Biography Newsletter 5
To receive this newsletter in the future, please list yourself in the appropriate section here. This newsletter was delivered by the automated R Delivery Bot 15:34, 7 October 2007 (UTC).

A tag has been placed on List of Pink Floyd bootlegs, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template   to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Empty pages: solutions
It's much better to create an article with enough content already in place (at least enough material to be a stub). You can also create a subpage (see WP:SUBPAGE) and work on the article there until you are ready to 'go live', at which time you move the article to the mainspace. By the way, Please make sure the article cites to reliable sources which verify its content, or it will be deleted in any case. Cheers.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 16:07, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Pink Floyd bootleg page

 * In reply to your post on my talk page, the bootleg article was deleted primarily for one reason: The article contained little to no content and was marked for deletion under the Criteria for Speedy Deletion - No Content (WP:CSD). When building articles, a page should start with enough content to merit its inclusion.  Things like notability (WP:N) and citation (WP:CITE) of reliable, verifiable, third-party sources (WP:RS, WP:V) should be included.
 * However, the nature of the page is "bootlegs." Bootlegs are, inherently, illegal.  Thus, I'm not sure if the article would meet the notability guidelines unless there was a reason for it's notability besides the fact that it's a bootleg.  That, however, would be for someone else to comment on as I am not very well versed in Wikipedia's legal issues. ++Arx Fortis (talk) 17:03, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Old Man and the Sea/Context
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Old Man and the Sea/Context, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/oldman/context.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 20:58, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

WP:RUSSIA roll call and your input required
Privet. You are receiving this message as you were listed on the membership list of WP:RUSSIA at Wikipedia:WikiProject Russia/Members. Recent times has seen minimal activity within WikiProject Russia, and there is an attempt to re-invigorate the project and have it become more organised into a fully-fledge functioning project, with the aim of increasing the quality of Russia-related articles across English wikipedia.

As we don't know which listed members are active within the project and Russia-related article, all listed members are receiving this message, and are requested to re-affirm their active status on Russia-related article by re-adding their username to WikiProject Russia/Members by adding:

#

to the membership list. You may also like to place   on your userpage, as this will also place you in Category:WikiProject Russia members.

There is also an active proposal on the creation of a single WP:RUSSIA project. The proposal can be viewed at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Russia, and your comments and suggestions are welcomed and encouraged at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Russia/Proposal.

We all look forward to your continued support of WP:RUSSIA and any comments you may have on the proposal. --Russavia Dialogue Stalk me 04:37, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Hi! I'm serving as the wikipedian-in-residence at the Smithsonian Institution Archives until June! One of my goals as resident, is to work with Wikipedians and staff to improve content on Wikipedia about people who have collections held in the Archives - most of these are scientists who held roles within the Smithsonian and/or federal government. I thought you might like to participate since you are interested in the sciences! Sign up to participate here and dive into articles needing expansion and creation on our to-do list. Feel free to make a request for images or materials at the request page, and of course, if you share your successes at the outcomes page you will receive the SIA barnstar! Thanks for your interest, and I look forward to your participation! Sarah (talk) 01:33, 18 April 2012 (UTC)|}

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Flickts. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Flickts~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:57, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 12:56, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
