Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Lower court of San Marino. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Plagiarism, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 15:10, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

G'day
G'day Iazyges. Thanks for awarding me the last lot of Swords. Just remember, when you award them, you need to add them to the awards page under the Swords heading. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 10:08, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

New Page Review - newsletter
Hello ,


 * Breaking the back of the backlog

We now have New Page Reviewers! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog. Now it's time for action. If each reviewer does only 10 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by each reviewer doing only 2 or 3 reviews a day - that's about 5 minutes work! Let's get that over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.

Not only are New Page Reviewers the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work. Read about it at the new Monitoring the system section in the tutorial.
 * Second set of eyes

With some tweaks to their look, and some additional features, Page Curation and New Pages Feed could easily be the best tools for patrollers and reviewers. We've listed most of what what we need at the 2016 WMF Wishlist Survey. Voting starts on 28 November - please turn out to make our bid the Foundation's top priority. Please help also by improving or commenting on our Wishlist entry at the Community Wishlist Survey. Many other important user suggestions are listed at at Page Curation. Sent to all New Page Reviewers. Discuss this newsletter here. If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list.

Iazyges
Hello, Iazyges -- I have completed a copy-edit of Iazyges. At several places in the article, as I was editing, I came across quite a few instances of sentences running one into the next, and sometimes into the next. In order to form sentences that made sense and flowed well, I had to do a certain amount of "educated guessing" as to what exactly was meant. Thus, I recommend that you read the article carefully to be sure that I did not introduce any factual errors. If you have any questions, or would like to revise a sentence (or paragraph) and would like my help, please do not hesitate to ask. Best regards, – Corinne (talk) 20:34, 27 November 2016 (UTC)


 * I remembered two things I wanted to mention. One is that I thought it might be helpful to include a pronunciation guide for "Iazyges" at the beginning of the article. Some readers might wonder whether "zy" is pronounced "zy" or "zee" and whether the "g" is a hard "g" (as in "good") or a soft "g" (as in "general"). The other is that I was intrigued by the mention of the influence of the Iazyges armor on Roman and perhaps other Western European armor, and I wondered if there were any illustrations of Iazyges armor, and, if not, of Roman and/or early European armor that scholars think might have been influenced by Iazyges armor. Just a thought. – Corinne (talk) 20:47, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
