Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Coccinellidae of New Zealand


A tag has been placed on Category:Coccinellidae of New Zealand requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

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.

Modern Meadow review request
Hi there, I proposed some updates to the page about biotech company Modern Meadow, and I think this might be of interest to members of the Biology WikiProject. I see you’re a member of that project who has been actively editing things on Wikipedia during the last six months, and I was wondering if you might be willing to take a look at them? The proposals address the concerns of a flag posted on the article. I have a COI and don’t want to violate Wikipedia rules by editing the page myself. Thanks very much for your time.

Disambiguation link notification for September 3
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited New Zealand Trade and Enterprise, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Trade promotion. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:03, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay
Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.

Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics.  Schwede 66  09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
