Disambiguation link notification for January 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Central administration, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Computer console (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Trio Hellenque
Hello,

New to this site, thanks for your help. I have this info directly from the source, the leader of Trio Hellenique & also the official fanpage which I have added. Is this ok? Hope you can help out. FNikolaidis (talk) 16:41, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
 * I have a couple of recommendations:
 * Use citations instead of external links; they are more visually appealing and more consistent.
 * Find another source –&#32; a reliable source –&#32; that verifies information on the article.
 * If you want, leave a note here when you're done so I can remove the tag. Thank you, Spencer.mccormick (talk) 16:47, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

Thank you but the reliable source is the leader of Trio Hellenique, V.Nikolaidis himself that has given me this information. I am his daughter and the official facebook fanpage that I have given has been created by me with first hand info. Don't think it can get anymore reliable... Is this enough for you to approve? FNikolaidis (talk) 17:53, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, we need a way of verifying the content. Perhaps a news article would do. Spencer.mccormick (talk) 17:55, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

FNikolaidis (talk) 18:05, 1 February 2014 (UTC)Would this link to the album with photo's & article's be enough? & also when you look at this: https://www.facebook.com/TrioHellenique/info you will notice I have the same last name as the leader as he is my dad & I am the admin of the pages mentioned on there. Hoping you can help me out. FNikolaidis (talk) 18:05, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
 * It would be nice to have –&#32; in addition to the references you have provided –&#32; a non-facebook reference. Spencer.mccormick (talk) 18:12, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your time & help! The photo album on facebook which I had uploaded is full of article's and pictures and are non-facebook related, it shows Trio Hellenique moments & article's. I can also provide you with a twitter page: https://twitter.com/TrioHellenique and a youtube page: www.youtube.com/user/TrioHellenique and this site we are in the process of setting up: http://triohellenique.webs.com/ also a google search will show many mentions of trio hellenique. Is this enough to verify the reliability? FNikolaidis (talk) 18:20, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
 * The reliability of the sources is questionable. However, I will remove the Proposed Deletion tag, replacing it with another tag that will not result in the deletion of your article in ten days. You should also consider reading the sections documentation; the article has some formatting issues. Spencer.mccormick (talk) 18:27, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

FNikolaidis (talk) 18:34, 1 February 2014 (UTC)Thank you will try to get the hang of this & also find some other sources and will try to add them. Appreciate your helpFNikolaidis (talk) 18:34, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia! When (and if) you have the time, I've included a few links and tips that you might be interested in:
 * The New Contributors' Help Page is always a good place to start;
 * If you have any questions, you can always ask me or contributors at the Teahouse;
 * You might want to consider reading the Simplified Manual of Style or parts of the the Manual of Style;
 * It could be helpful to familiarize yourself with our copyright policy;
 * Finally, when replying to threads, you can indent your post by interting a colon at the beginning of your comment. This helps organize talk page posts.
 * Remember, be bold, but not reckless or disruptive in your editing. Also, there's no need for you to learn all of this now, as you already have a project. I wish you good editing, Spencer.mccormick (talk) 18:46, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

FNikolaidis (talk) 19:55, 8 February 2014 (UTC)Had the chance to log in again today and it seems the page is up again for deletion? :( I thought you had fixed that. I am trying to enter the ref's correctly and asked help for that if maybe someone could enter them correctly for me? FNikolaidis (talk) 19:55, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Ah, yes. It appears another editor added back the tag. As I had previously indicated, the Facebook references were deemed to be unreliable. I implore you: please find another non-Facebook reference, such as a news article, to reference the article. If you find one, I can add it to the article; simply drop it on my talk page.

Syed Ahmad Barelvi
Hi new user here so trying to learn how to use this site. Regarding the article on syed ahmed barelvi the original article I found wasn't neutral it had terms like "brutal Sikh rule", "oppressive Sikh rule". There is no evidence for such remarks to be included in the article, and they are just subjective opinions by the previous barelvi biased article writer/editer. Therefore I added a little balance to the argument based on what I've read of this character syed barelvi — Preceding unsigned comment added by Truthspeaker84 (talk • contribs) 22:33, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
 * The wording felt a little unbalanced. Perhaps if you used more neutral wording instead of taking the opposite side, it would be more beneficial. For more information, see the guideline WP:NPOV. Thanks, Spencer.mccormick (talk) 01:03, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

New deal for page patrollers
Hi ,

In order to better control the quality  of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
