Information icon Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Amanda Abbington. Thank you. Bbb23 (talk) 00:32, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Iain Glen, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Impact, Missus and Anchor Me (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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Haplogroup X (mtDNA), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Native Americans (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

February 2014

[edit]

Please do not remove correct information from articles, as you did to Y-DNA haplogroups in European populations. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you removed were incorrect, please cite references or sources and discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Jingiby (talk) 13:23, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That is new organized information instead of it being all over the place from 20 different studies, I spent hours adding it all and will fill in the blanks later. Please do not revert them. Anarchistdy (talk) 13:26, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Report of Commonwealth Wars Graves Commission

[edit]

"Click to read" on the green icon for the Annual Report on page 45 it reads "United Kingdom and Colonies" The Commonwealth War Graves Commission Annual Report 2010-2011 Page 45 The source is quite clear, there should be no despute.--Woogie10w (talk) 03:59, 3 February 2014 (UTC) Also the Commonwealth War Graves Commission is an official source, the webpage you cited is a self published and cannot be be used as a source on Wikipedia.--Woogie10w (talk) 04:09, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You will see on page 43 of the Report of Commonwealth Wars Graves Commission for the "United Kingdom and Colonies" there are 244,769 identified burials and 138,940 commemorated on memorials for total dead in WW2 of 383,709. Those are the official figures from the UK government.--Woogie10w (talk) 04:30, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, so I've read it and it seems like it's referring to British Overseas Territories not colonies of the former British Empire like it's suggested, because it separates the "UK and colonies" from British Indian, Canada, Ausralia etc. Anarchistdy (talk) 07:38, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

French casualties WW2

[edit]

French casualties do include colonial conscripts Ils intègrent tant les soldats qui se battirent sous la croix de la Lorraine que les militaires des forces vichystes engagés au Levant ou en Afrique du Nord. Ils mêlent coloniaux et métropolitains, conscrits et militaires d’active, soldats réguliers et résistants – quand ces derniers bénéficièrent d’un statut militaire à l’instar de Jean Moulin. [1] --Woogie10w (talk) 04:06, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

They also have an English translation on the site [2]--Woogie10w (talk) 04:20, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Paywalls

[edit]

Regarding paywalls and verifiability, Wikipedia policy allows sources requiring payments. Both WP:PAYWALL and Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Cost support this, as does this administrator's help desk response. Can you cite any policy to back up your claim that paywalls equate to unverifiability?  Mbinebri  talk ← 20:59, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

U2

[edit]

I hate to say it, but the band is Irish. The formed in Dublin while the members were living and attending school in Dublin. The members are all still based in Dublin. Despite two of the members being born in England, they do not identify as such "English". Feel free to revert, but there are a half dozen or so editors who also watch the article who will support the current wording. Walter Görlitz (talk) 09:15, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disruptive editing

[edit]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.

  • If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
  • If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Toccata quarta (talk) 14:32, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ethnicelebs is not a reliable source, I tried to link it before and an Admin told me it's not because it uses wikipedia as a source. Anarchistdy (talk) 04:11, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

ANI notice

[edit]

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Toccata quarta (talk) 15:11, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Anarchistdy. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Fallout 4".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Fallout 4}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save page", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 06:29, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Hi, at Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge we're striving to bring about 10,000 article improvements and creations for the UK and Ireland and inspire others to create more content. In order to achieve this we need diversity of content, in all parts of the UK and Ireland on all topics. Eventually a regional contest will be held for all parts of the British Isles, like they were for Wales and the Wedt Country. We currently have just over 1900 articles and need contributors! If you think you'd be interested in collaborating on this and helping reach the target quicker, please sign up and begin listing your entries there as soon as possible! Thanks.♦ --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:40, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 02:04, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
