Autopatrolled granted
Hi Slafayette, I just wanted to let you know that I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&page=User%3ASlafayette added] the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing!  Schwede 66  20:18, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks that's awesome! I really appreciate your reviews of the pages I've been creating as well! Slafayette (talk) 20:51, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

Kia ora
Kia ora Slafayette, just thought I'd stop by and say hi! Looks like we have some similar interests on here :-) I recently discovered this crowdsourced google list of inspirational NZ women, I think it was created to help people find women to have on discussion panels etc as they are so often men-only (or men-heavy). Anyway, there are over 725 names on it and quite a few seem notable enough for a WP article ..... if you're looking for any more material to work with! All the best.

 * MurielMary (talk) 08:24, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks it's lovely to hear from you! That looks like a very useful list, I'll definitely go through & use for inspiration for future articles. I've only recently started actively editing Wikipedia and it's motivating to create articles specifically on women. I was born & grew up in New Zealand so am also enjoying learning more about the women from there. Slafayette (talk) 10:44, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

The Group
Hi Slafayette - I see you've been adding a lot of artists to The Group NZ... are you sure these were all members of The Group, or did some of them just exhibit alongside The Group? If it's the latter, perhaps there needs to be a new section of the template for associated artists. Grutness...wha?  01:47, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks I've been adding them if they were exhibitors i.e. not guest artists, although I see your point, they should have specifically been members (active) in The Group NZ itself. Also because there are quite a few it would be good to easily see who is more active/prominent. I'll go through the ones I've added and review them a bit, if it makes more sense to have them as associated artists I'll rearrange. Also just wanted to say thanks for all your reviews & amends to my articles, I've recently started editing Wikipedia and am still learning! It's really helpful to see the fixes and changes and hopefully my articles will continue to improve. Any comments or suggestions are always welcome! Slafayette (talk) 10:50, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Glad to be of help - and good to see an enthusiastic new editor doing so much work :) FWIW I work in the arts for a living down in Dunedin NZ, so I know something about these artists (though not really enough to be able to add much more than you're doing!) Grutness...wha?  11:05, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

Proposed draft for Liwonde National Park
Hello, Slafayette. On behalf of the nonprofit organization African Parks via the Wyss Foundation, and as part of my work at Beutler Ink, I've submitted an expanded and updated draft of the Liwonde National Park article for consideration at Talk:Liwonde National Park. I am looking for someone to review this draft for accuracy and neutrality, and to copy over content appropriately as a replacement of the current article, which is almost entirely unsourced.

Since you're a recent member of WikiProject Africa, I thought I'd reach out to see if you are interested in taking a look at the proposed draft. My requests for help at several WikiProjects have gone unanswered for a while now. Might you be willing to take a look at the draft?

Thanks for your consideration. Inkian Jason (talk) 15:51, 27 October 2017 (UTC)

The World Contest
Thank you for your contributions to the World Contest. As an assistant judge I am required to recheck entries approved by the bot and I have marked a couple of yours as needing attention. You need to be careful about close paraphrasing in your articles. For example Louise Wallace (writer) states "Wallaces's work touches on family stories, popular music, travel, and relationships" while the source states "The collection touches on family stories, popular music, travel, and relationships". This is unacceptably close to the original and needs to be written in a different way. ("A variety of themes include travel, modern music and family relationships" or somesuch.) Of course, some things such as "an MA in Creative Writing at the International Institute of Modern Letters" can't easily be written in a different way, and to repeat them is acceptable. I don't want to put you off, and look forward to other new contributions from you that don't have this problem. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:22, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks I noticed that you highlighted this on the contest page for Oceania and I completely understand the comment. I will amend the articles so this is no longer an issue (and also check other pages I've created/future pages). The Earwig check tool is really helpful to ensure all the content is original, thanks for linking to it. As a new editor I definiatly appreciate the feedback and any suggestions, I'm using the contest (and WIR) to push myself to create pages & learn more about the editing process - I've definitely learnt a lot so far!Slafayette (talk) 12:06, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
 * You are doing well, and if I can be of any help, please ask. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 14:13, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

Tuvalu and Niue
Nice work. Fancy a crack at Tokelau? I tried to find someone who would make a likely subject, but came up blank. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 15:25, 17 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks - I'm actually working on an article for Tokelau now! I thought it would be fun to challenge myself to see how many countries & territories I could create a page with a women bio. It's fun that there is a contest going on too, but that's just a bonus! Some places are much harder than others but the research process is interesting. If you come across anyone interesting from the Pitcairn Islands let me know, that's the one I'm really struggling with! Slafayette (talk) 19:19, 17 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Ooooh, excellent. I look forward to reading it. Couldn't come up with anyone for Pitcairn Island, either...I'll keep chewing it over and let you know if I can think of anyone. Otherwise - happy editing, and keep up the good work! -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 20:25, 17 November 2017 (UTC)
 * And I see you found both - excellent work! -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 17:39, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks very much! I was surprised I did but great to come across some interesting stories! Slafayette (talk) 20:01, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
 * That's always the most fun part of these things, isn't it? Finding stuff about people you otherwise never would have heard of. From places you'd never think of going. (Well...I harbor a desire to visit the Pitcairn Islands. One of these years I will make it happen.) -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 20:33, 19 November 2017 (UTC)

Women in Red World Contest
Hi. We're into the last five days of the Women in Red World Contest. There's a new bonus prize of $200 worth of books of your choice to win for creating the most new women biographies between 0:00 on the 26th and 23:59 on 30th November. If you've been contributing to the contest, thank you for your support, we've produced over 2000 articles. If you haven't contributed yet, we would appreciate you taking the time to add entries to our articles achievements list by the end of the month. Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale!

Shirley Smith
Hi Slafayette, I loved reading your article on Shirley Smith (lawyer), great woman to write about! Just checking though, you've added her to the page on first women lawyers around the world but she wasn't actually a first lawyer, she was the 41st woman in the High Court. I don't think she belongs on that page for that reason, although she could be on that page as "first woman to hold a full position in a university Faculty of Law". What do you think? MurielMary (talk) 03:30, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks MurielMary! I completely agree with your comment and I've updated the description to reflect that she was the first woman faculty member to teach law. I'm not sure if that warrants her remaining on the page as most of the list seems to related to being admitted to practice law. I'm happy to remove her if she no longer fits in the scope of the list! Slafayette (talk) 11:24, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

An exceptional barnstar for you
Thankyou so much for the hard work! I make it $100 that you've won. Please double check. If you would like to donate any of your winnings into the Women in Red Book Fund to raise money to buy books for editors of women topics who need them on demand please add your name and the amount you'd like to donate in the sub section below the prize winners on the main contest page.♦ Dr. Blofeld  14:05, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks User:Dr. Blofeld, my very first barnstar as well! Well done on a great contest, it must have been loads of work but it was great fun and wonderful to see everyone's contributions. It also inspired me to explore women of Oceania & I'm glad I could add to the coverage of some great women. Checking the results, I think my amount should be $160 ($10 for 11th, $100 for Oceania, $50 for literature), thanks! Slafayette (talk) 14:49, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Ah yes, corrected :-) Can't believe it's your first barnstar, you do a lot of amazing work here!♦ Dr. Blofeld  14:52, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Good to see that you're also a member of the jazz project. So much work needed there too!!♦ Dr. Blofeld  15:09, 4 December 2017 (UTC)

Looking for help
Hi,

I was looking for some small help.Recently I created a new article en:Kithaab i.e. es:Kithaab-a play about women rights issues- which has been copy edited and is ready for translation in various languages. Looking for your possible help in translating the article en:Kithaab es:Kithaab to your language. If you are unable to spare time yourself then may be you like to refer the same to some other translator to get it translated in their own respective languages.

Thanking you, with warm regards

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)
