Orphaned non-free media (Image:Mxitv5.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Mxitv5.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:17, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

bitter smell when you rub your nose
Read on the ref desk about your nose thing. Do you get smells from other kinds of tactile experience? If so, you might have synesthesia. Not bad. Awesome, actually. If your experience is just isolated to your nose, then that's kinda weird. --Shaggorama (talk) 06:24, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Xhosa Wikipedia
Hi Adriaan. Thanks for your interest in contributing to the Xhosa Wikipedia. I've put a response there, but in case you don't read it, will repeat it here too.

"You can still contribute actively to the project, whether or not you are an admin, and I agree that there's not really a need for an admin for the Xhosa Wikipedia right now. I am strongly against closing the project, as that just puts a large barrier to any future contributions. Regarding translating MediaWiki, have you looked at TranslateWiki?"

I see that you have, based on a comment in your Afrikaans talk page! I've been keeping a close eye on the smaller South African language Wikipedias (see this post for example), so any more enthusiasm to contribute is great.

I've also written a tool that helps with translating templates, so, for example, if one country template was translated, it becomes easy to quickly populate other countries with similar templates. So if you're keen to contribute, dive in, and don't get put off by the negativity you encounter :) Greenman (talk) 13:18, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:05, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
