GA nominations
Hi, Zanimum. I I would like to inform you that you have missed out the GA nomination you reviewed fro Fancy (Iggy Azalea song). Is it because it failed, and that's why it is not added in? Thanks, DEW.   Adrenaline  ( Nahnah4 ) 09:48, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Edward Greenspan
You likely know this stuff. A few days ago with a different IP, I took him out of Category:2014 deaths and replaced it with Category:Recent deaths— I've just keyed   in case it doesn't show up—and it doesn't show up in the page. What's happening? Your explanation would be appreciated—I've yet to give the hidden category meta article a thorough reading. I'd like to put it and the deaths from heart failure categories next to 1944 births. I'll be back here to read your response and likely post again. Thanks.

Your GA nomination of David Bednar
Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article David Bednar you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days.

Your administrator status on the Inupiaq Wikipedia
Hello. A policy regarding the removal of "advanced rights" (administrator, bureaucrat, etc.) was adopted by community consensus in 2013. According to this policy, the stewards are reviewing activity on wikis with no inactivity policy. You meet the inactivity criteria (no edits and no log actions for 2 years) on the wiki listed above. Since that wiki does not have its own rights review process, the global one applies. If you want to keep your rights, you should inform the community of the wiki about the fact that the stewards have sent you this information about your inactivity. If the community has a discussion about it and then wants you to keep your rights, please contact the stewards at m:Stewards' noticeboard, and link to the discussion of the local community, where they express their wish to continue to maintain the rights. If you wish to resign your rights, you can reply here or request removal of your rights on Meta. If there is no response at all after approximately one month, stewards will proceed to remove your administrator and/or bureaucrat rights. In ambiguous cases, stewards will evaluate the responses and will refer a decision back to the local community for their comment and review. If you have any questions, please contact the stewards.

Monk
Hi, Zanimum. As I know you are interested on the series, I'd like to ask you to copyedit "Mr. Monk Gets a New Shrink" for a GAN. It has one of the smaller receptions I've done for Monk but it was what I could find and I think it's enough for GA. On the other hand, I think production maybe a bit verbose. On a side note, as far as I know you're a good reviewer, I'd like you to do not review this one. I hope you don't take it personally but while I don't think someone would say it's a bias, you've reviewed four out of four Monk GA episodes. Could you do this/these favor(s)? Greetings.

Speedy deletion nomination of Jay Martin


A tag has been placed on Jay Martin requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
 * disambiguates two or fewer extant Wikipedia pages and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
 * disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Support request with team editing experiment project
Dear tech ambassadors, instead of spamming the Village Pump of each Wikipedia about my tiny project proposal for researching team editing (see here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Research_team_editing), I have decided to leave to your own discretion if the matter is relevant enough to inform a wider audience already. I would appreciate if you could appraise if the Wikipedia community you are more familiar with could have interest in testing group editing "on their own grounds" and with their own guidance. In a nutshell: it consists in editing pages as a group instead of as an individual. This social experiment might involve redefining some aspects of the workflow we are all used to, with the hope of creating a more friendly and collaborative environment since editing under a group umbrella creates less social exposure than traditional "individual editing". I send you this message also as a proof that the Inspire Campaign is already gearing up. As said I would appreciate of *you* just a comment on the talk page/endorsement of my project noting your general perception about the idea. Nothing else. Your contribution helps to shape the future! (which I hope it will be very bright, with colors, and Wikipedia everywhere) Regards from User:Micru on meta.

Automotive Building
Hi, I was starting an Automotive Building article of my own, (User:Alaney2k/Automotive_Building when I saw the link to your Automotive Building article from the Wikimedia Commons picture. I have not gotten very far. I have added City of Toronto Archives pictures and am working on that right now. Eventually, I was going to build up the content by looking through the Star and Globe archives from the Toronto Public Library website. Your content looks pretty good. I noticed that you have not done any work on it since 2014, though. Are you planning to continue it? Your work is pretty close to being moved into the main space, I think. Alaney2k (talk) 17:27, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for bringing this into the main space, and doing all the additional work you've done. I tend to start but not complete articles, I need to remember to make the leap! (I think I got distracted by the Art Building and/or Women's Building.) I don't have any immediate intentions to do more digging, so you're welcome to shape it however you like.
 * Will you be nominating it for DYK, or shall I? It would be nice to give the article a bit of a push on the main page. --  Zanimum (talk) 17:17, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I don't know how to nominate it. I'm sure it passes the 5x rule. Alaney2k (talk) 20:37, 27 August 2015 (UTC)

GA review of Les Demoiselles d'Avignon
Hallo, I've started the review of Les Demoiselles d'Avignon for GA. In general it is a fine article which I'd be pleased to see as a Good Article. The referencing needs a little tidying up, there are one or two points that should be mentioned, and the legacy section needs a little beefing-up. I've suggested specific ways these few things could be done: you may have other equally good ways of doing these things. I do not think any of the changes will take at all long. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:15, 28 September 2015 (UTC)


 * We are quickly approaching the time when I will be obliged to fail this GAN for lack of response, something I am always sorry to do, given the efforts of the editors involved.

Proposed deletion of Hawaii Five-O (1997 TV pilot)


The article Hawaii Five-O (1997 TV pilot) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Failed television pilot. Also, not independently notable per WP:N. Although sources discussing the topic have been found, expansion is impossible. Quality as is fails WP:IINFO. Already covered briefly in Hawaii Five-O (original) and Hawaii Five-0 (reboot).

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on |the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hi, I see that you didn't submit Draft:Brampton Outstanding Business Achievement Awards or Draft:Pet Valu to WP:AFC so it's been sitting around draftspace since December 2013. Would you consider submitting it to AFC or reviewing it or something? Else, I think it's a stale draft. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 04:32, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi Zanimum, a while back, you did the GA review on Sip 'n Dip Lounge. I'm having a bit of trouble explaining to another editor that the changes he wants to make aren't helpful. I'd value you watchlisting the article and if the edit-warring continues, to weigh in with your views on the matter. Montanabw <sup style="color:purple;">(talk) 11:44, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

Animegao kigurumi
Im okay with you reverting if you have a good reason on why. There had been a discussion in place about a merger, rather than remove the tags as well you could have provided at least a source or two to help out. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 19:39, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
 * If you're merging pages, it's common practice to ask for input from editors that have recently contributed to the page to provide their input. Not everyone is watching their watch lists.
 * Regardless of procedure, take a look at the literal translation of kigurumi: "to wear a stuffed toy". It's a pretty good definition of a mascot costume, and it's a fair definition of people with animal pyjamas. It's a terrible definition of people wearing a costume to look like another person.
 * While some Japanese stage shows include animegao costumes, animegao is largely a hobbyist practice.
 * To me, and I can assure you to the animegao kigurumi community, merging the two is like merging Giant pandas and red pandas. Yes, at the heart of things both are mammals with mask-patterned fur, but it's really just a case that one of the two was badly named early on, and it's too late to change that.
 * Ultimately, the pyjamas should be shuffled off as onesie pyjamas, the Japanese word for mascot shuffled off to there,elsewise we should have articles on bortargas and mascottes, and the article on kigurumi should largely be about animegao kigurumi, with a see also up top saying Kigurumi is the Japanese word for... The other two.
 * As to sources, that's always been a challenge. It's still niche in English speaking countries. Many of the references are about mask construction, or located on social media sites. I'm looking. --  Zanimum (talk) 00:23, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay fair enough, I actually support it's own separate page but am unsure about the stand alone notability bit. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 14:21, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

<section begin="technews-2016-W02"/> Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes Problems
 * Wikimedia no longer uses visitor statistics from comScore.
 * You can make interactive graphs with the Graph extension. There is now a tutorial for how to do this.
 * Some pages do not turn in up in categories where they should be. This is because link tables are sometimes not populated.

Changes this week
 * The Nuke extension will work with Flow. This will make it easier to handle spam in Flow.
 * New file uploads will now be patrollable.
 * Internet Explorer 8 will no longer have JavaScript support. You will still be able to browse and edit Wikipedia if you use Internet Explorer 8, but will not be able to use some features. This can be solved by upgrading to a newer version or switching to a different browser.

Meetings
 * Octicons-sync.svg You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 12 January at 20:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes
 * Octicons-tools.svg URLs in the recent changes IRC feed will no longer be rewritten to unencrypted HTTP. This could be a breaking change for bots dependent on the IRC feed.
 * The edit tabs for the wikitext editor and the visual editor will be combined to one single edit tab. You will be able to choose which one you prefer. If you are not logged in, your choice will be saved as a cookie in your browser. You can test the single edit tab.
 * There is a beta feature that adds links to the subject on other Wikimedia projects. This works much like the links to for example Wikipedia articles in other languages. It will go out of beta testing and be enabled for everyone in January. Wikis that don't want this can decide to have it disabled.
 * The difference between "alerts" and "messages" notifications is unclear to some. The developers want feedback at the Phabricator task or on MediaWiki.org so they can make this better. You can give feedback in your language if you can't write in English.

 * Octicons-tools.svg MediaWiki will get a new authentication and authorization system called AuthManager. This is planned to happen in a month or two. Some bots will need to change how they log in. Two new and more stable authentication methods will be available now: Owner-only OAuth credentials and bot passwords. You can read more about the change.
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 19 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 20 January. It will be on all Wikipedias from 21 January (calendar).

Talk:The Land of Gorch/GA1
Zanimum, your review has been sitting since New Year's Day. Do you intend to review it, or should we put the nomination back into the reviewing pool?

 * It's been over a week since I posted the above, with no response. Since you have been similarly unresponsive a number of times in the past, such that some reviews had to be terminated and put back into the reviewing pool, it seems best if I give you a deadline: the end of the day, February 29, UTC time. If there is neither a response here nor activity on the review, it will be closed on March 1, two months after it was opened. I hope you will take some action before then.

Zanimum, thanks very much for agreeing to take on the GA Review for The Land of Gorch !

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Wonderful World of Disney: Disneyland 60, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Den of Thieves.

 * The Capiunto extension is installed on test wiki. Capiunto provides flexible infobox functionality for Scribunto and generates HTML for infobox features such as headers and rows. It is designed for clean and modern infoboxes that are driven by data from Wikidata, easily usable across different language versions, and easily extensible.
 * The visual editor now follows the TemplateData  setting announced in November. When you edit or add a use of a template, the wikitext will be laid out in one of the two ways.
 * The order of parameters and format defined in a template's TemplateData will be now respected.

Changes this week
 * On wikis where the visual editor is available in single edit tab mode, red links may open the visual editor instead of the wikitext editor, depending on user preferences.
 * Anonymous editor warning is now displayed as a warningbox for consistency in both the visual editor and the wikitext editor.
 * Parsoid has been updated to fit some HTML 5 specifications.

 * It is now easier to categorize images uploaded to Wikimedia Commons in the Commons Android app.
 * Octicons-tools.svg Bare attributes in tags now parse according to the HTML5 specifications.  will parse as   instead of   as it used to. Please use   or   instead. This is mostly likely to affect pages on Wikisource projects.

Problems
 * Phabricator has been a bit unstable lately. This should be fixed now.
 * The PageView API shows wrong data between 23 February and 29 February for pages with special characters in their title.
 * The parsing change mentioned above caused a large number of pages to break, especially on Wikisource.
 * You may see falsely formatted edit links on both mobile and desktop devices. Mobile devices can also show incorrect formatted table of contents. This should be fixed soon.
 * Templates using TemplateData that were edited with the visual editor might have some problems in wikitext mode. This can be fixed by editing and saving the page by using the visual editor without making any changes.

Changes this week

Because of a test, there will also be a couple of minutes where you can't edit the wikis on 15 March starting 07:00 UTC. You can read more about the server work. There will be more notifications and updates about this.

Should you ever get tired of waiting, just let me know, and I'll put the nomination back into the pool of those waiting for reviewers without any loss in seniority.

<section begin="technews-2016-W26"/> Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes
 * The ORES service has now moved to a new location. This should make it easier to use ORES. The ORES review service is now available as a beta feature on Wikidata and Persian Wikipedia. ORES is an artificial intelligence system for Wikimedia wikis to help editors.
 * The order of wikis in collapsed cross-wiki notifications was different than when the list was expanded. This is now fixed.
 * A new category for tracking pages with math errors was added:    :.

Problems
 * The Wikimedia Etherpad crashed on June 23. Some edits done that day have been lost. They can be found at etherpad-restore.wikimedia.org for another few days.

Changes this week
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 June. It will be on all wikis from 30 June (calendar).
 * The way to mark notifications as read or unread will be changed to be more clear.

Meetings
 * Octicons-sync.svg You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 28 June at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes
 * The Collaboration team at the Wikimedia Foundation will look at developing better tools for edit review. This is because research suggests we scare away newcomers who want to help.
 * An e-mail from the Editing Department explains the technical work that is planned and being researched for the future. Items include better wikitext and visual editing, prompts for edits, language improvements, annotations, and meta-data separation.
 * The sorting of Notifications into the two fly-out menus is going to change on July 5 to 7. Bundled notifications should be easier to explore and mark as read individually.
 * Octicons-tools.svg From 29 June git.wikimedia.org (running Gitblit) will redirect all requests to Phabricator. The vast majority of requests should be correctly redirected.
 * Catalan and Polish Wikipedias will have Wikidata descriptions added to articles in the mobile view by default. This is currently a beta option for the mobile versions. This might come to other wikis later.

Proposed deletion of Bridget Hall (actress)


The article Bridget Hall (actress) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Complete WP:NACTOR fail – only one significant role (see IMDb for "Bridget Hall (II)") for the TV show, Spellz, which itself appears to be completely a non-notable TV series. Further, no secondary sourcing provided at article, and after looking around I can't find any other independent sourcing at all.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on |the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 17:03, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Olympians and Paralympians from Peel, Ontario, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Andrew Yorke. 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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:12, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Welcome to Pooh Corner VHS.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Welcome to Pooh Corner VHS.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:15, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Creating and editing links to sections on other pages on the wiki now works again in the visual editor.
 * For some users, cross-wiki notifications haven't been working properly. The count has been wrong when only cross-wiki notifications were present. The cross-wiki bundle has been showing only the names of wikis and not the actual notifications. This will be fixed soon.

Changes this week

Wikispecies
Hi

I am writing on behalf of Wikiversity Journal of Medicine, an open access, peer reviewed medical journal, with no publication charges. You can find more about it by reading the article on The Signpost featuring this journal. Recently there has been a proposal to define a separate sister project for journals under Wikimedia and to move the pages under  similar to the case of WikiSpecies. You have been one of the early contributors to Wikispecies. Could you please guide me about how to get the relevant subdomain of wikimedia.org.

Seeking your cooperation.  D ip ta ns hu Talk 14:18, 18 August 2016 (UTC)


 * Interesting concept! I'd say that this page on Meta Wiki is the appropriate location. --  Zanimum (talk) 23:59, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
