Disambiguation link notification for August 31
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Spiti Valley, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tabo. 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.)

Khanahr (Salgi) village moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Khanahr (Salgi) village, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

 * Comments noted, thanks. I'm working on improving this article. --Tagooty (talk) 15:13, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Khanahr has been accepted
 Khanahr, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. Most new articles start out as Stub-Class or Start-Class and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the  [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk&action=edit&section=new&nosummary=1&preload=Template:AfC_talk/HD_preload&preloadparams%5B%5D=Khanahr help desk] . Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider.

Thanks again, and happy editing! Ingratis (talk) 09:04, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

As an extra note to the above, I think the article title does not need to be anything more than "Khanahr", since there is no other article of a similar name. Ingratis (talk) 09:13, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Image quality icons should not be included in article captions
Hello. I'm an administrator and a Teahouse Host, and you may have seen that earlier today I pinged you in a reply I gave to at the Teahouse, regarding their query about your rather unusual inclusion of image quality icons in every article caption whenever you've inserted on of your own photographs. As wonderful as your photos are, I'm afraid we simply don't include those icons in the articles themselves as they only serve to detract from their encyclopaedic nature. Instead, anyone going to Commons to look at one of your images in more detail can see your work has been appreciated by the community via the use of the image quality icons there.

It's an easy mistake to have made, but I really do need to ask you to go back and remove them all, please. To help you get started on this, I can offer: Unfortunately, I can't offer you a link to all the articles where you've placed File:Cscr-featured.svg, as this graphic is also used in hundred of other Featured articles. So I will simply have to ask you to go through the articles you've added your photos to and remove this and any other image quality icon from all the captions, please. Thankfully, you are really good at leaving edit summaries, so a Ctrl-F search for the word "seal" in every one of your past contributions may make that task easier for you.
 * Pages that link to "File:Valued image seal.svg"
 * Pages that link to "Template:QI seal"

I'm sorry to have to ask you to do this, and I certainly wouldn't want to put you off from contributing your wonderful photos to articles in future, but I do ask that you omit the icons, please. Many thanks, Nick Moyes (talk) 00:46, 23 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Noted. Will do the needful. Tagooty (talk) 01:33, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

Hello Tagooty - sorry about the hassle. I didn't even know they were your images. I just saw the icons and did not remember seeing that done before in other captions. I thought I would query through the Tree House for a better opinion. Please continue to compete in QI/FP/VI. You make excellent images. Best, Gordon
 * Thanks for the appreciation. I'll certainly continue to compete for QI/VI/FP and to edit Wikipedia articles.  I follow the Wikipedia dictum of "be bold" and cheerfully rollback the occasional step too far! --Tagooty (talk) 02:44, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
