Philadelphia Phillies Opening Day starters
Regarding your edits to the navbox template related to List of Philadelphia Phillies Opening Day starting pitchers, I have reverted them. With a list that is so long (considering the Phillies' 126-year history), there is no reason to link to all of the team seasons and to overlink players with multiple Opening Day starts. The navbox is not the list; it should not try to accomplish the same goal as the list. Navboxes are for navigating between linked topics; lists are for bringing together comprehensive groups of information. Since every article linked in a navbox should have that navbox on it, in the case of your design, we would have to put the Opening Day starters' template on every single team season article, which – I think you'll agree – is a completely inappropriate use of that particular template. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks. KV5 ( Talk  •  Phils ) 11:53, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Wolf Hall
Hi, looks like you and I created a new article at the same time. I felt Wolf Hall, as a Man Booker winner, deserves to have the primary name of Wolf Hall, since it was just a redirect before, and not a very important one. Would you be amiable to redirecting Wolf Hall (novel) -> Wolf Hall? Green Cardamom (talk) 01:47, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

December 2014
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. ElKevbo (talk) 06:58, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Invitation from Wikipedia Asian Month 2016
 Wikipedia Asian Month  Thanks for partipating Wikipedia Asian Month last year, and I hope you enjoy it. Last year, more than 7,000 articles contribute to Wikipedia in 43 languages in Wikipedia Asian Month, making us one of the largest event on Wikipedia. We will organize this event again in upcoming November, and would like to invite you join us again.

This year, we are lowering down the standards that you only need to create 4 (Four) articles to receive a postcard (new design), and articles only need to be more than 3,000 bytes and 300 words. We are also improving our postcard sending process, e.g. making the postcards right now, and collecting the address after the event ends without waiting other languges.

Wikipedians who create the most articles on each Wikipedia will be honored as "Wikipedia Asian Ambassadors". We will send you both digital copy, and a paper copy of the Ambassador certificate.

Thank you for considering! --AddisWang (talk)

Orphaned non-free image File:Nipthebuds.png
Thanks for uploading File:Nipthebuds.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:38, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

deletion about Bill Lauch
Why did you delete most references to him? If you don't mind me asking. Most articles of celebrities tend to mention partners. Chefs-kiss (talk) 11:19, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I didn't "delete most references". Here are my changes. I removed the reference from the lede, as the fact that Ashman had a partner is not one of the most important facts about him (WP:MOSLEAD). Lauch accepting Ashman's award was duplicated in the article and doesn't need to be mentioned twice; I removed one of the two citations. The current version of the article retains their partnership, Lauch's profession (which I would still argue is unnecessary detail), and two public encounters. Every citation is still included. Mentioning details like the fact that Lauch is from Cincinnati is irrelevant to Ashman (the topic of the article) and adds unnecessary noise (see WP:WEIGHT). --Irregulargalaxies (talk) 15:47, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you for clearing it up! Regarding the profession i thought it might be relevant since often famous people congregate with famous people? You know. Movie stars tend to marry other movie stars or models. I wouldn't have put it in if there was a separate article on Bill himself. What are your thoughts on that? Chefs-kiss (talk) 22:51, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't think this bit of information really adds anything to this article, but I'm not going to make an effort to specifically remove it if you want to add it back. I'd say mentioning any attribute of people who are not the subject of the article should mostly be considered about whether it adds any meaningful context ("meaningful" can of course always be debated). As a counterexample - if Lauch were a butcher, or a teacher, or a jazz singer from Kazakhstan - would anyone reading the article about Ashman interpret him or his relationship with Lauch any differently? Those are mostly personal opinions, though - I think most actual policy would be covered under WP:RELEVANCE. Irregulargalaxies (talk) 03:28, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clarifying! Will clear up certain things then! Thanks

Speedy deletion nomination of L'Express de Madagascar


A tag has been placed on L'Express de Madagascar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Bbb23 (talk) 00:37, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
