Mami Naito
Hi there!

Thanks for your article about Mami Naito. I've made some edits, assigned a category and put the competition information in a table with columns for the competition and date. I also put one of the bare urls into a simple citation format with the title, site and retrieved date. Hope this helps!--CaroleHenson (talk) 03:50, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

2012 South American U-20 Women Championship
Hello. I find the results on Spanish Wikipedia. Here: --Uishaki (talk) 17:58, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Badminton Pictures
Hey, no i do not know about that. Maybe ask an experienced editor who does a lot with images. Kante4 (talk) 22:13, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Reference of Badminton Acticles
Hi, MorrisIV! I found that you usually use a Chinese website "http://www.badmintoncn.com/cbo_star/star_xxx.html" as the source of reference for the badminton acticles. In fact, "www.badmintoncn.com" is just a Chinese badminton-fan platform, but not the official website of China National Badminton Team. I think it should not be used as a reliable source.—Wongpong (talk) 03:02, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

2011 Cloverdale Cash Spiel
Hey! I noticed you added line breaks to 2011 Cloverdale Cash Spiel. What were you trying to do there? I think there may be a better way than using line breaks, but I'm not sure what format you wanted. Prayerfortheworld (talk) 00:13, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
 * When I viewed the page the Men's team chart got scrunched. Several of the names appeared on two lines, as opposed to the Women's chart where everything was on one line. I will concede that it might be because my computer screen isn't as wide as some of the more recent computer screens.--MorrisIV (talk) 02:01, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

2012 Olympic Football officials
Hello, I appreciate your feedback on the British (English) match officials. I was really unsure because in past Olympic articles I have seen officials listed initially as British but on the same article when listing them for officiating a particular match then they are identified with their Home Nation. I think I will go back and hopefully bring those articles in line with listing them consistently as British. Thanks. --Spartan008 (talk) 21:57, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Hey, there is a discussion going on, about the match reports for the olympic football tournament. You are welcome to join here. Kante4 (talk) 12:25, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

NWSL
I would like to request your support in this discussion re: the professional status of the National Women's Soccer League and inclusion on this page: WikiProject Football/Fully professional leagues. Thank you for your consideration. Hmlarson (talk) 01:15, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

New Super Series format
Yes, I have seen this, too, but there were no discussions about it. On the one hand I am very happy, if somebody is doing such strange things like draws and I hope he (and you) will add a lot of more draws in the future. The addition of the qualification rounds is very useful, too. On the other hand it is very sad, that a work is done twice while a lot of other tasks are still waiting for the first time publication of Wikipedia. So what to do? We must keep him as editor, but it would be good, if he could apply his energy into the generation of really new draws. I have here for instance the complete draws for all disciplines of the 1949, 1950 and 1956 All England, some qualification draws of some world championships are still missing, too. Tournamentsoftware lists all draws of the All England since 1989, and all the draws from 1989 to 2009 (partially also 2010) are missing here. So really much things are to do. Florentyna (talk) 08:28, 26 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Probably he never answers on discussions (or does not know, how it works). Malaysia and Korea he started to edit before the discussion, this way we probably get all the 2013 results in one and the same form. But he should not touch any other existing older draws. --Florentyna (talk) 16:37, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

User difficulty.
Hi, I would personally just revert his edits, if he's non-responsive. -- Earl Andrew - talk 20:39, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Badminton
Hey, i commented there. Since i (or was it we in an earlier discussion?) "brought" that system over i think it should be kept, much better. Kante4 (talk) 21:38, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Can you tidy up the 2013 Super Series tournament from 4 to 2 sections only? We might need to standardise all. --Aleen f 1 03:27, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm assuming you mean the 2013 Korea and Malaysia events. I did them both with help from User: Florentyna and some others, but User:The tampan changed them. There are about 150 edits to manually undo. Do you know of a way in which we can undo all of those edits in one move?--MorrisIV (talk) 06:34, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I think since tournament done, you can browse the best revision to revert. Possible? --Aleen f 1 11:20, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Anyway to discuss about the flag issues? --Aleen f 1 16:17, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I think User:Drmies made a good suggestion that we create a guideline for badminton articles at WikiProject Badminton. The Badminton Project is woefully short of information compared to other Olympic sports' project pages.--MorrisIV (talk) 16:39, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

UEFA Templates
Hey, you linked it to the 2011 templates and not 2015. That was the point that you forgot, but no big deal. ;) Kante4 (talk) 13:21, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Template
Hey, not really but maybe check out the navbox template. Other than that, not really as russian is really not a language i know anything. ;) And on the en-wiki i never faced such a problem. Kante4 (talk) 15:08, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

An exciting month of wiki events!
 Hello there,

I am pleased to say that April will be a very exciting month for Wikipedia in Washington, DC. We have a lot of different events coming up, so you will have a lot to choose from.

First, a reminder that our second annual Women in the Arts Edit-a-Thon will take place on Sunday, March 30 at the National Museum of Women in the Arts.

Coming up in April, we have our first-ever Open Government WikiHack with the Sunlight Foundation on April 5–6! We are working together to use open government data to improve the Wikimedia projects, and we would love your help. All are welcome, regardless of coding or editing experience. We will also be having a happy hour the day before, with refreshments courtesy of the Sunlight Foundation.

On Friday, April 11 we are having our first edit-a-thon ever with the Library of Congress. The Africa Collection Edit-a-Thon will focus on the Library's African and Middle East Reading Room. It'll be early in the morning, but it's especially worth it if you're interested in improving Wikipedia's coverage of African topics.

The following day, we are having our second annual Wiki Loves Capitol Hill training. We will discuss policy issues relevant to Wikimedia and plan for our day of outreach to Congressional staffers that will take place during the following week.

There are other meetups in the works, so be sure to check our meetup page with the latest. I hope to see you at some of these events!

All the best, James Hare

Wikimedia DC invites revolutionaries, free thinkers, and other sundry editors to a DC WikiSalon
The WikiSalon is a special meetup usually held during the first and third full weeks of every month, from 7 PM to 9 PM. It's an informal gathering of Wikimedia enthusiasts, who come together to discuss Wikimedia wikis and collaboratively edit. There's no set agenda, and guests are welcome to recommend articles for the group to edit or edit on their own.

If you're coming by Metro, the closest station is Dupont Circle (on the Red Line). If you're driving, a lot of parking opens up downtown after 6:30 PM, so finding a parking space (even a free one) should be easy. Once you've found the building, go to Cove on the second floor. We will be in the conference room. When: Wednesday, September 17, 2014 at 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM

Where: The Cove, Dupont Circle, 1730 Connecticut Avenue NW, 2nd floor, 20009, DC

Football at the 2015 Pan American Games
Template:Infobox international football competition is usually placed for every football tournament at the top (e.g. 2014 FIFA World Cup). Since the top of the page is already occupied by Template:Infobox Pan American Games event, I put it at the bottom to avoid cluttering. Chanheigeorge (talk) 13:21, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Markus Fernaldi Gideon / Gideon Markus Fernaldi
Hello MorrisIV, I accidentally saw your edit message in 2015 Chinese Taipei Masters Grand Prix page that you are unsure about the name of the Indonesian badminton player. Actually his name is Markus Fernaldi Gideon. Since social media accounts like Twitter or Instagram cannot confirm this, the Indonesian Badminton Federation official profile will explain. As usual, BWF name registering system is the main cause of this confusion. Hope this helps. Griff88 (talk) 04:57, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

Sweden's Olympic qualification procedure
Hello! I noticed you posted a question on Raymarcbadz's talk page on this topic last year asking what their requirements were. I'm not sure if you're still curious, but I figured I'd answer it anyway. It is true that Sweden historically were very inclusive in their selection, letting anyone who qualified go. It's been a while since then though, last 15-20 years they've been more picky.

The stated requirements is having a chance to finish top 8 in individual events, or top 6 in team events. There might be some leeway in interprating that, but generally expecting a result around 20th wont do it in individual events. Aside from that, young athletes expected to do better in future olympics, will be selected more generously and don't have to meet as high standards. (Still, just qualifying isn't enough, they need to be reasonably on par with those competing.)

Having followed their selection process the last few olympics, I'd say there's an additional situation where one qualified might be selected despite not having a reasonable chance at top 8 (top 6 for teams). That's if the athlete is the sole representative in that sport; they will be more generous then. (As evident in, for instance, the selection for speed spating in 2014.)

Also, side note. Anyone selected and sent to the games for their chance in any specific event, is allowed to participate in any events they qualified too. That's why table tennis players get to play singles if their team qualify, and how Sofia Arvidsson got to play singles in tennis in 2012. (She was accepted for her chance in mixed doubles.) -- Lejman (talk) 11:35, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
