Magic Kingdom article
Thanks for the barnstar ... I think the user before me didn't realize just how much damage the offending editor did when he undid the vandalism in good faith. Sometimes you just gotta look at the history and see just what was going on. Also, I took the liberty of relocating the barnstar on my page and provided a link indicating who bestowed it and when (i.e., I added your name and date of edit). I tend to list them in chronological order ... yeah, I'm a stickler for detail sometimes. :) --McDoobAU93 (talk) 23:20, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Wikify Drive
Since you signed up for the September 2010 GOCE event, I wanted to invite you to participate in a similar event: the September 2010 Wikification Backlog Elimination Drive. In case you didn't know, "Wikification" is the process of formatting articles using Wiki markup (as opposed to plain text or HTML) and adding internal links to material. Barnstars will be awarded to participating editors. Thanks!

Hard (music festival) External References
Hello Hippychickali. Hope you are doing well. I will say in advance, apologies if my format on your talk page is incorrect, the language and protocol is often confusing to one such as my self not schooled in html. I was stopping by to check in with you to see if you might be able to remove the external references flag you posted (on july 20) on the Hard (music festival) page. I don't believe I had listed any external reference sources except for the one in the archive box at the top and the reference links. I'm not sure why its there exactly. If you could let me know, I'd be glad to make the appropriate required edits. I thank you kindly for your time and appreciate your feedback and time.

deOrphaning script
Hello everyone! I was just working on responding to a couple bug reports for a script that I worked up as part of a request from this project, and I noticed that only a couple people (who weren't even on this mailing list) are actually using the script. A little history on the script: In March of 2014, came to my user talk page and said he needed some help in acquiring a script for a backlog drive that he was working on that could keep track of and score deOrphanings for a scored backlog drive. I took that request to the project's talk page (BackLog Drive "DO" (De-Orphaning) script proposal) and there was near unanimous support for this. I thought about the proposal and decided the best way to do it was to build a new script (which is still no where near as comprehensive as 's OrphanTabs) and build into it a mechanism that will make BLD scoring easy.

What I'm wondering at this point is, since there appears to be only two people using the script, should I continue to develop this script with a goal of using it for scoring BLDs or just debug the existing script and leave it at that. Thanks for any replies or comments.

If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Opted-out of message delivery to your user talk page.

Welcome to AfD
Welcome back to Wikipedia, and thank you for getting involved in the Articles for Deletion process. For your recommendations to carry the weight you intend, it's important (more important perhaps than in other areas of Wikipedia) that they be structurally well-formed and that your arguments be grounded in policy. You may find WP:AFDFORMAT and Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions helpful reading in this regard. Worldbruce (talk) 02:16, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Port Caledonia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Donkin. 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) 08:56, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Sydney Academy 49 Terrace.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Sydney Academy 49 Terrace.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 14:41, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

New 10,000 Challenge for Canada
Hi, WikiProject Canada/The 10,000 Challenge is up and running based on The 10,000 Challenge for the UK which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. If you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Canada like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1600 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for Canada but fuelled by a contest such as The North America Destubathon to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. I would like some support from Canadian wikipedians here to get the Challenge off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile! Cheers. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:55, 22 November 2016 (UTC)
