Hi RHM, been a while. As you know, this one will go on the Main Page on April 21. Sometimes you write "the Mint" soon after, for instance, "Philadelphia Mint" ... readers may miss that you're referring to the US Mint, and I think "US Mint" would work better in these cases. Otherwise, the lead section looks good to go. - Dank (push to talk) 00:52, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Dank! It's good to hear from you again. I noticed your changes to the article, and I think they look good. Thanks for those, and for the note. In some cases, "the Mint" could refer either to the Philadelphia Mint or to the U.S. Mint in general, since it was the hub [coin pun alert] of the organization at that time, and most official business was conducted there. By contrast, the branch mints were more akin to coin factories.-RHM22 (talk) 01:47, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Doh! I had forgotten that ... okay, no need to be careful then. Btw, I didn't get your ping ... the notification software doesn't notify when you add a username unless you sign again. Isn't technology grand? - Dank (push to talk) 02:23, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Dank: I didn't know that! Thanks for that information. The tildes high, but I'm movin' on. When I stopped editing in 2012, we were still using talk back templates, so this flawed technology is most welcome.-RHM22 (talk) 02:32, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
 * That notification worked, and that's a terrible pun. - Dank (push to talk) 02:56, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
 * I apologize for nothing.-RHM22 (talk) 02:59, 31 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Like that line, - didn't want to start a new thread: if you are in for a difficult GA review, there's Maria Radner, - tough for me to edit, I did only little, in prep for DYK. - I am expanding BWV 165, - please keep an eye on it. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:25, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Gerda: Sure, I'll take a look when I get a chance. I have a few pending requests, so it may take me a few days to get to it.-RHM22 (talk) 22:56, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
 * When you get the chance for the singer, I would appreciate it. GA, but prose questioned, - nothing I could do. - The cantata is at FAC, latish but my fault, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:48, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Gerda. Sorry about taking so long; I've been very busy this past week, and I got sick (again!) and just did not feel like doing anything this weekend. I will certainly take a look at your article this week, though!-RHM22 (talk) 01:04, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry to hear about sickness, take it easy and get better as slowly as is comfortable. it's not "my" article. I met it on routinely checking new articles related to Germany, and made me cry, - doesn't happen too often. I only edited a bit, - it's collaboration as I love it, but as a result a little uneven, both in style as in weight (due and perhaps undue). - "My" article - the cantata - can wait, - actually I found another work Bach wrote for the occasion only yesterday! - which needs to be integrated, hopefully today, - also not "my" article as you can tell immediately by lack of an infobox ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:01, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, we're all sharecroppers at heart, but what has traditionally been derided as "ownership" is what I prefer to think of as "stewardship", assuming the editor or editors involved are thoughtful and knowledgeable. At any rate, I'll get to it very soon! Only a couple of requests sit ahead in queue.-RHM22 (talk) 11:30, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Stewardship is fine. Only I (as far as I know) have been told by the almighty arbcom that I have to watch out carefully if I created an article (and by create they mean turn red link to blue or make an article from a redirect). If I did I may create an infobox, otherwise not, even if I created 99% of the content of said article. I worked on Kafka, it helps to understand things like that ;) - I also read that "Live editing to a featured article is not such a good idea", - better no comment ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:56, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

Today,  precious  again. GA expert, what do you think of Lilacs for GA, at a glance? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:03, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for questions on the talk. The author will not be able to answer, sadly, but let's see what we (everyone interested) can work out. There is a draft version linked to on his talk, - that's actually how I met the article. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:29, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Gerda: Oh, sorry. I didn't know that the editor responsible is no longer active. I liked the article; it's well-written and informative. Lincoln has long been an interest of mine. I'll take a look into the DAB links and make some easy fixes myself. After that, you should be able to get GA without much difficulty if you're interested. By the way, I am far from a GA expert!-RHM22 (talk) 13:35, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you for looking into this. I wonder, seeing that the number of lines is given sometimes as 206, sometimes as 207, what is right, also why one source is given bolded? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:05, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Gerda: It looks to me that some of the references are incorrectly formatted. I'd replace them with the easy templates. As for the page number, I'd say that one or the other is probably just a typo. I guess it would be easy to confirm one way or the other, by counting! There is probably a simpler way, though: it must be widely cited in works about Whitman or poems in general. I'll look into it to see which one is correct; my first thought would be 207.-RHM22 (talk) 03:20, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I found a 1912 printing that gives 206 lines, but others seem to have 207! I'm not sure which is the accepted version.-RHM22 (talk) 03:24, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I mentioned both, changed the refs and nominated for GA. Perhaps look at the refs for mistakes in transition, and some things commented out, for example I don't know where to place "Jr.". I bet that some more authors could be linked. Will look again tomorrow. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:19, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Gerda: I'll take a look at it now. Regarding the 'Jr.' suffix: some people have a comma before it, and others don't. In the case of Martin Luther King Jr., the preference seems to be for no comma. I'm not sure about George Walker, because his article makes no mention of it. Are you sure that it belongs after his name?-RHM22 (talk) 23:35, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I am not sure about anything ;) - just getting to know the article, and making mistakes in copying. The problem I see when adding Jr. to the surname is that it would brake the harv refs, no? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:45, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Oh! I see what you mean now. I don't think that would break the Harvard citation. Are you using ? It looks like the article uses sfn right now. I use sfn a bit differently than most people, because I don't use a separate line for the year. In other words, I use  . Either way, I don't think the Jr. would mess with the refs, and you could leave it out of the inline citations if you wanted to anyway. It certainly won't cause any problems with the cite book template either.-RHM22 (talk) 15:39, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

I took the liberty to nom the next liberty, Today's featured article/requests/Susan B. Anthony dollar, - please improve the blurb and do the pic crop magic ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:40, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Gerda. Thanks! I'll take a look.-RHM22 (talk) 00:22, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Hi Hetika. I'm a bit busy at the moment, but I'll take a look at your PR when I get some free time.-RHM22 (talk) 20:25, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
 * At first glance, the article needs a considerable amount of work and input from native speakers. I'm going to ping Dr. Blofeld, because I know that he enjoys these Indian film articles.-RHM22 (talk) 20:29, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Not so much as Hollywood and French/Italian cinema film articles and actors but the Indians on wikipedia are always striving for good quality articles on films, more than American films on average I'd say so I try to help out when I can. Will try to look at this within a week or so.♦ Dr. Blofeld  20:33, 4 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi. I'd be very grateful if you could give Castell Coch a read and comment at Peer review/Castell Coch/archive1. Thanks.♦ Dr. Blofeld  19:08, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Dr. B.. I'll peak in there as soon as I get a chance. I'm currently working on the above, so this castle will be a nice break from Bollywood! I wouldn't mind having one myself.-RHM22 (talk) 23:00, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Sorry about that! Well in fairness I can't blame them, the Bollywood articles generally do get overlooked at FAC.♦ Dr. Blofeld  16:04, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Any chance you could give Tenebrae (film) a read? I'm trying to retain it as an FA but I'm not convinced the prose level is exactly "brilliant".♦ Dr. Blofeld  21:21, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Dr. B. I will give it a check, but I have a bit of a backlog at the moment. This has been a busy month so far.-RHM22 (talk) 16:33, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Castell Coch
Dear RHM22, a brief note to thank your again for your peer review of the above and to let you know it is now at FAC where, again, your comments would be very much appreciated. Best regards. KJP1 (talk) 17:19, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Not a problem at all re. your further comment on the image descriptions. And I entirely take the point re. access, it does look different when I view it on the iPad or iPhone.  Shall we see what the reviewers say and respond accordingly.  KJP1 (talk) 18:37, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
 * That sounds like a good course of action to me. Accessibility is often taken into consideration at FAC, but I'm not sure if that caption layout poses any concerns in that regard.-RHM22 (talk) 23:31, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

Sheldon coin grading scale
As a coin collector myself, I am surprised this article hasn't been touched upon, it is used by all of the major grading services. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 00:43, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi, Knowledgekid87. That article is definitely pretty bare bones, seeing as how it's the only widely-used grading scale here in the U.S.. I don't have much information on it for reference, since the market aspects of numismatics never much appealed to me (I like to write about coins, but I own very few), but it could definitely use some expansion. Come to think, references might actually be a bit scarce, since the Sheldon scale is one of those things that's often taken for granted and not usually discussed in depth. Maybe something like Photograde would provide some background.-RHM22 (talk) 00:52, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Most of the books dealing with coins such as the red book by Whitman and one by Coin-world goes more into grading and the history behind it, I would need some help though. Its okay if you like to write about coins that's good too. =) - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 00:58, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * The Red Book seems to have some more generalized, glossary-type information when it comes to the Sheldon scale, but it's always useful for some minor things. I have the 'professional' Red Book from a few years ago, which I believe goes quite in-depth in regards to grading standards. I'll pull that out and see what I can find. This time of year is very busy for me, and I have another project that I'm about to move from the back burner to the fore (American Silver Eagle, the penultimate in our series of dollar coin articles). After I'm done with that, I'd be glad to provide some assistance where possible, but as I said, I don't have a terribly large pool of references for that particular subject. Let me know what you decide!-RHM22 (talk) 01:04, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I have long wanted to make substantial changes to the Sheldon scale article. I thought perhaps of making a table with the different grades along with 2 coin and 2 paper currency stereotypical example of the grade (without making it an article about third party grading services). A delicate balance would be required as most of the references operationalizing the scale are published by the grading services--Godot13 (talk) 13:13, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

Quick query
Did you get a MUSE email to your previous address earlier today? Nikkimaria (talk) 01:32, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Nikki. Nope, I didn't get the MUSE e-mail in either address (old or new). I got the JSTOR sign-up e-mail recently, but nothing about MUSE lately.-RHM22 (talk) 01:36, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks - I wasn't sure whether they had sent it out themselves or not, so I will do that later this evening. Nikkimaria (talk) 01:38, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I will keep an eye out for it.-RHM22 (talk) 01:40, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Temper (film)
I'm planning to take this article to GA status before which i want to get it c/ed. Can you c/e the article? Let me know whether you are interested in doing so or not by messaging me within a reasonable time. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 02:39, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Pavanjandhyala. I can do a copyedit, but I'm a bit busy at the moment, so it might not take place in the very near future. If you're very pressed for time, I won't be able to help you. Sorry!-RHM22 (talk) 13:49, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Can you try to predict when can you begin the c/e process considering your commitments? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 13:56, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, I might be able to look in on it within the next few days. However, first thing's first: you'll need to expand the lede section. The article is pretty long, but the lede is really short. The first thing you'll have to do for GA is expand that a bit. I'll give you some more suggestions after I read the whole article.-RHM22 (talk) 13:58, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Please do. After that, once you list the suggestions, i shall begin work on it. One help, is it the gross figure or distributor share that should be mentioned in the infobox? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 14:03, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm really not an expert in film articles, but the infobox film template says that worldwide gross should be used for film revenue.-RHM22 (talk) 14:08, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Alas, India does not have something on the lines of Box Office Mojo which provides "definitive results" rather than "estimates". So, i am preferring to go with share. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 14:40, 26 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi. You gave a nice copyedit to Shah Rukh Khan a couple months ago. Would you be willing to do the same now for his most popular film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge? I am trying to get this to FA for its 20th anniversary. It was recently gone over by the GOCE, but SandyGeorgia said it's still not good enough. If not, could you at least provide some pointers for me at Peer review/Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge/archive1? Thanks, BollyJeff  &#124;  talk  22:44, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

I know that Dr. Blofeld does some work with Indian cinema, but I don't know whether or not he would be interested in copyediting the article. I will take a look when I am finally able to plow through my backlog!-RHM22 (talk) 14:02, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for raising our awareness for coins, treated with competence and dedication, - a small gem in additions to your crowns, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

 * A gem bright along the banks of the River Memory! I appreciate it still, and the original gem sits on my user page.-RHM22 (talk) 13:38, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
 * There are now two options for a userbox if you prefer that. - I also keep the original message on my user page ;) - Falstaff is FA now, in memory of Viva-Verdi, - a wonderful tribute by Tim riley. - River Memory: I had asked Viva-Verdi if, after all operas by Verdi, he would give an infobox to the master also. No answer. It should have told me that he was not with us anymore. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:55, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I have had no interaction with him, and opera is very far from my expertise, but it seems like he was a quality contributor. The general public doesn't notice or miss Wikipedia editors when they're gone, except for the little empty spot inside their minds that could have been filled with something.-RHM22 (talk) 14:10, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I loved reading the condolences in this case, especially "a poignant reminder that the friendships we form here are real, heartfelt, and lasting". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:05, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
 * In case you have a bit of time: Daniel Brustlein, I asked for more lead, now it's a bit too much detail for my taste. What do you think? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:55, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Dear Gerda: Sorry about the delay in responding. I looked over the Brustlein article and made a few small changes. As the lede stands now, I think it should be expanded. An article of that size (relatively small) should probably have a two-paragraph lede section. Maybe the inclusion of some of his personal and early life would help to fill it out a bit. Those parts seem noticeably absent from the lede. Also, as a side note, there is a little bit of what might strike some as original research in the 'Personal life' section. For example, there are a few instances of phrases like "this seems likely..." Overall, I think it looks nice. Willem de Kooning seems to come up in every article I work on.-RHM22 (talk) 13:40, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

If I have to supply a source for Mozart's Requiem being in D minor I don't care about the star, simply best shape. I'll try to expand his 100. Psalm. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:46, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

Today, thank you for American Arts Commemorative Series medallions, "a rather obscure and unloved series of American bullion medallions produced as a competitor to the very popular South African Krugerrand coins. Though their sale numbers were lackluster, they served as the direct ancestor of the American Gold Eagle, a series of bullion coins which are today extremely popular with both collectors and investors."! By now, both Reger (also a bit obscure and unloved) compositions are FAs. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:13, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

16 Vayathinile
Hello RHM22. I had expanded the article 16 Vayathinile and it passed its GA review today. The reviewer (Dr. Blofeld) wanted the article to be copyedited as he felt that the prose could be tightened up. I requested Pavanjandhyala as to who might copyedit the article. He recommended you for it. I see on your user page that you have contributed to the promotion of Enthiran (2010) to featured article status. Would you be interesting in copyediting this film? If so, please let me know. Thank you. Thamizhan1994 (Appo Pesu) 13:49, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Do you think you could help dealing with them? Example: "it was never out of print", - four major anthologies are listed to support that, but strictly speaking, that doesn't support "never". Reword? How? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:32, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Gerda. Sorry about the delay. I'll take a look at the references today, unless they've already been fixed.-RHM22 (talk) 16:34, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I didn't change anything. See the talk first, please. - Would you take another GA review? Geist und Seele wird verwirret, BWV 35, for 23 August, interesting talk also, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:51, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm taking a look at Lilacs now, Gerda. (Apologies again for the delay.) At first glance, it seems to me that Victoria is correct in saying that the primary sources are insufficient, especially if you're using them to assess Whitman's thoughts on anything. It would be a bit like sourcing The Lord of the Rings to a statement saying that Tolkien believed orcs were evil. The only real solution, as far as I can see, would be to find secondary sources to corroborate; some of the sentences can't be reworded without changing the meaning. As for it never having gone out of print: citations to several anthologies would probably be enough to say that it was published in those specific anthologies (and only barely that), but as you say, it's certainly not enough to establish a continual publication history.
 * Some of the 'citation needed' tags seem quite unnecessary. For example, the one after the sentence regarding publication following Lincoln's death could be cited to the poem itself (which may or may not be necessary, depending upon whether or not the same rules for fiction apply to poetry), and the date of Lincoln's assassination is easily established and could be cited to any one of thousands of books.
 * "Scholars believe" is problematic, and should probably be narrowed down to a certain person, unless it can be established that it's generally accepted by scholars at large.
 * As a side note, reference 93 doesn't point to any work that is listed in the bibliography, and Olmstead is listed in the bibliography but not cited anywhere in the article. Shucard (1985) is also not cited, but I believe that ref 93 (Shucard [1998]) may be the intended use for that.
 * I'm sorry that I couldn't be more helpful. I have a copy of Leaves of Grass, but I'm not an expert on poetry and I don't have access to any sources you haven't probably already seen (in other words, online). I have to do a review of a film article, but after that, I'll take a look into your GA request when I have some free time. I hope things are going well in your part of the world.-RHM22 (talk) 03:13, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Please remember that it is not an article I wrote, nor understand much about the topic, other than general admiration. You could do me a favour if you reword the passages in question, example: when 4 anthologies are listed to support that it was never out print, either drop the statement or give the years of those anthologies. If not possible, comment out. - If you could get to the cantata soon I would highly appreciate it, because it is connected to next Sunday, and I would like to see it on the Main page then. (Missed last week's already.) I spent some time "shouting" on ANI, my choice (for the first time in my history here), and even successfully so!


 * The cantata review is done, even in prep for DYK tomorrow. Interesting question on the talk, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:35, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I even translated some of it to German ;) - next for GA: Preise, Jerusalem, den Herrn, BWV 119, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:52, 24 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi, can you take a look at it? It needs a copyedit before FAC.♦ Dr. Blofeld  06:31, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

Thank you
Thanks for your PR and FAC comments and/or edits to Chetro Ketl, which is now a featured article. It was a long and interesting process, but thanks to a wealth of insights and suggestions the article is now among our best. Thanks for taking time out of your busy editing schedule to help me.

Today's featured article/January 25, 2016
Hi RHM, working on this one now. Let me know if my text works for you. - Dank (push to talk) 01:31, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Hm, this contradicts itself: "... all were minted in the 1830s or later. They were first created for use in special proof coin sets ... Some silver dollars were struck in 1804, though all were dated 1803." I'm guessing it should be "all the Class II and III coins were minted in the 1830s or later" or something. Let me know if I'm guessing wrong. - Dank (push to talk) 01:58, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi Dank. Actually, the dollars minted in 1804 weren't 1804 dollars, because they were all dated 1803. The only 1804 dollars struck were made for the diplomatic mission and again as restrikes some years later. I'll take a look at that blurb now.-RHM22 (talk) 04:41, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Sorry, for which diplomatic mission? 1834 and 1835? - Dank (push to talk) 04:47, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Apologies for the confusion! This is an unusually complicated topic. The first 1804-dated dollars struck were made specifically for the Roberts diplomatic mission to Asia in the 1830s. A quantity of dollars were struck early in 1804, but those were all dated 1803. As far as I'm aware, the reason for that is still unknown, but I assume it was done to save from having to make additional dies. When it came time to create coin sets for Roberts, Mint officials mistakenly determined that the dollars struck in 1804 were actually dated 1804, so they chose that as the date to use for the diplomatic sets. Again, the reason is today unknown, but of course there is speculation. The later restrikes came about after people realized that 1804 dollars existed (since they didn't until the 1830s), and collectors needed them for their sets. I'm currently doing some work on the blurb in a different tab.-RHM22 (talk) 04:54, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay, I just shortened the blurb to take out the stuff that was wrong (I see it now in the non-lead text), but feel free to write your own. - Dank (push to talk) 05:00, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm doing a few edits now, but I'm concerned that it may be too long. Do you think the current length is acceptable?-RHM22 (talk) 05:03, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * It's not too long; the average is about 50 characters longer. I made a couple of small tweaks; s'ok? - Dank (push to talk) 05:54, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Dear Dank: That looks perfect! Thank you for your fine work.-RHM22 (talk) 16:15, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Great, sorry for my earlier confusion. - Dank (push to talk) 17:08, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins
Hello,

Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers
Hi.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins) .MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for the article about "one of the least popular coins ever struck for American circulation. In response to the Eisenhower dollar, another unpopular coin, the U.S. Mint began issuing a smaller dollar in 1979. It quickly became apparent that it would also not be accepted by the public, partly due to confusion caused by the similarity in size between it and the quarter dollar. Numismatists drew comparisons between the Anthony dollar and the twenty-cent piece, another failed coin which also caused confusion in commerce."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:21, 16 November 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Jarko Zavi


The article Jarko Zavi has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Memorial-style page on a Canadian ceramics artist. The page states he was an outsider who did not participate in exhibitions, which rules out many of the WP:Artist inclusion criteria. The only other points for inclusion are a few minor newspaper mentions."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 06:07, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

Nomination of Jarko Zavi for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Jarko Zavi is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Jarko Zavi until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 06:08, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

This message was sent to all administrators following a recent motion. Thank you for your attention. For the Arbitration Committee, Cameron11598 02:55, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular)
ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.

Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, two-factor authentication remains an optional means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised.

We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered.

For the Arbitration Committee, -Cameron11598 21:04, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

Administrators will no longer be autopatrolled
A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the Administrator's Noticeboard. 20:06, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
