Original Next Thing Co. page history
Thank you for taking action on the Next Thing Co page. Is there some way to point interested parties to its original history? While I was deliberating between "delete" and "merge" (not that I know the exact steps), I read about attribution to previous editors by preserving page history. As shown in the original talk page, my motivation to "merge" usable content into CHIP (computer) is the page's disorganization. Meanwhile, there is no easy way for me to acknowledge previous individual editors of that page for pieces I merged (and thus did not contribute). So I thought I'd leave the page as a stub (not that I know how to do that, either) so I can point back to the original history.

Twisted House
hello! I tagged this article for notability as there are only three sources, one of which is non-reliable (Youtube). if you want to remove the tag yo have to add reliable sources to resolve the issue, as I imagine you are aware.104.163.159.237 (talk) 03:43, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, I was looking at Henry Ernest Boyes... (this is how Wikipedia gets its quality control: you get picky about my edits, and I get picky about yours). In any case, you only have two reliable sources in that article as well. Since I am sure you will revert my correct notability tag above, I would just like to point out that to establish notability you need WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS. In short, a diversity of in-depth coverage is required... Ok now I am seeing that you are an administrator, and accordingly scratching my head about your understanding of sourcing. Oh well.104.163.159.237 (talk) 03:52, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I added three sources to the Boyes article.104.163.159.237 (talk) 03:59, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
 * And I've added several to Twisted House, so I've removed the tag. EnPassant (talk) 14:24, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I suggest the IP can go around and delete more than half the articles on Wikipedia for the same reasons he's trolling me - stubs are meant to be expanded and improved. Missvain (talk) 14:52, 16 May 2018 (UTC)

Thanks
No one has ever thanked me using the "thank" link, until you came along. I have to say I've not noticed it until I got thanked. On the other hand, I haven't really contributed much lately. I don't know when "Thank" was added. But, hey, thanks for the thanks :) Fred Hsu (talk) 00:41, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Ha! Glad to surprise you with a thanks. Thanks for whenever - and whatever it may be that you contribute, User:Fred Hsu :) Missvain (talk) 17:39, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Rejected Submission
Hello, Missvain,

I am writing as follow up to a message that I received from you regarding my contribution for Patrick L. Anderson. Your message directed me to your talk page, for further questions.

Is there any process of reconsideration? I ask since I sourced that entry meticulously. I do know the subject (which was the stated reason for the rejection), but that is why I find him so interesting and am aware of his story in the first place (also, I did not receive any type of compensation for my composition).

Patrick Anderson also is very much a public figure, whose 9/11 survival story was featured in depth on PBS, so I thought he would be worthy of a Wikipedia entry, which would allow those curious in his experiences to look him up and learn more.

Please advise.

Many thanks for your guidance, pjschwartz1 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pjschwartz1 (talk • contribs) 20:58, 1 June 2018 (UTC)

Rejected addition of the link to the finding aid to the Anshutz collection.
I've reviewed the info at WP:ELDUP and it seems to me that a finding aid to a fully digitized collection could be one of the exceptions where websites can be both references and external links. This web page is entirely devoted to T. Anshutz, has multiple sub-pages, and has info not mentioned in the other 2 external links. The other 2 links under external links are either to only images of his paintings or paintings and a couple of articles. The link I tried to add has letters written to others by Anshutz, letters from others to Anshutz, financial records, and photographs, not of his art works but of classes he taught. I know there's a fine line between what to include and what to exclude and I'm trying to understand where that is. Thanks! --Mcdanielm (talk) 16:12, 5 June 2018 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in study
Hello,

I am E. Whittaker, an intern at Wikimedia with the Scoring Team to create a labeled dataset, and potentially a tool, to help editors deal with incivility when they encounter it on talk pages. A full write-up of the study can be found here: m:Research:Civil_Behavior_Interviews. We are currently recruiting editors to be interviewed about their experiences with incivility on talk pages. Would you be interested in being interviewed? I am contacting you because of your involvement in Wikipedia’s Women in Red project. The interviews should take ~1 hour, and will be conducted over BlueJeans (which does allow interviews to be recorded). If, so, please email me at ewhit@umich.edu in order to schedule an interview.

Thank you Ewitch51 (talk) 19:38, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:31, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi Missvain, I've recently done a bit of work on Bishop John Carroll (statue). Given your in involvement in the DC task force of WikiProject Public Art, I think you might be interested to know that I've nominated it for WP:GAN. If you care to take a look and see if there are any glaring absences in the article, I'd appreciate your input.  Ergo Sum  01:05, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

Jen Bryant page
Miss Vain, thank you for approving the page for author Jen Bryant. I contributed a number of articles to Wikipedia in the past but the guidelines/rules have become much more strict since then.

I have sent in the e-mail granting release of the Jen Bryant photo. She hired me to create this page (I am her webmaster) and gave her permission to release this to Creative Commons.

For the maintenance message, "use of external links may not follow Wikipedia's policies or guidelines," I have removed external links to places and colleges and awards (the award links appear later in the Selected Awards and Honors section) in the introduction and Background and Education sections. I hope this is what was meant. I left the links to persons such as Tina Barr and David Keplinger, believing people might want to know who they are.

As for this message, "This article relies too much on references to primary sources," I have referred to other children's literature author's pages to make sure I was recording similar links. I truly don't understand this message. There are links to 14 articles written by others about Jen or written by Jen and published on other websites. I would consider those to be secondary sources because they are not published on her own website. Can you help me understand what would be preferred?

Vickilp (talk) 16:39, 8 November 2018 (UTC)Vicki Palmquist
 * User:Vickilp - Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Wikipedia relies on content being cited using reliable secondary sources - which are, for example, newspaper articles, magazine articles, radio interviews, etc. Wikipedia prefers you use those, versus the websites where her content is published, etc. Also, if you happen to know the subject, which I think you might - you keep calling them Jen, as if you know them personally - you should probably stop writing the article. It breaks our WP:Conflict of Interest policy. Cheers. Missvain (talk) 17:42, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:John steuart curry.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:John steuart curry.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:00, 17 November 2018 (UTC)
