Stubs

G'day. As a heads up, we tend to stub at the bottom of articles not right at the top. It marks it as a note rather than being the first thing that hits you when you get to the article. I've removed the ones you've added - if you really think they are stubs (and I'd encourage you to think again about that in at least one case) then please go ahead and stub again. If you need a hand doing so then ask.

I'd suggest you might want to take a wee look at WP:STUB in the meantime. HTH Blue Square Thing (talk) 19:04, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thanks for all your help. As you know I'm new so just trying to help out GingerGeek (talk) 19:31, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fibrinogen

Wasn't this a little overkill? A stub article like that that doesn't need sections, a separate intro, or restructuring. --Auntof6 (talk) 20:01, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah sorry about that GingerGeek (talk) 16:37, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Simple Wiki, Unban

Request reason(s):
I only revert vandalism, no reason given or notice on my Talk Page

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):
It's collateral damage from a rangeblock. After consulting the admin who made the rangeblock and getting a go-ahead, I've added IP block exempt to your account. You should be good to go now. -Mh7kJ (talk) 18:54, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

La tempestad in simple English

Hallo GingerGeek, I have reverted your revert of my edit on simple:La tempestad in simple. Please note that Wikidata is live so there is no need for traditional interwikis any more. For your information I am an admin on Wikidata and huwiki as well, I guess I know what I'm doing. By the way, I'm just back from Chester, it is a nice town, I love it.

Hi GingerGeek. Just wanted to make sure that you've seen this reply from Csigabi. Osiris (talk) 03:32, 8 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

QD on Simple English Wikipedia

You recently tagged an article for Quick Deletion on the Simple English Wikipedia as being spam. It was not spam, so the QD notice did not make any sense to me. The QD is denied.--Peterdownunder (talk) 12:40, 16 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for September 4

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Tom Cassell, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Halo (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.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 12:36, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Tom Cassell

The article Tom Cassell has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:BLP article that does not meet WP:NENT nor WP:NCREATIVE, only sources are WP:PRIMARY

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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Tom Cassell

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Tom Cassell, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Tgeairn (talk) 22:19, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Huggle 3

Hey GingerGeek! I am Petrb, one of core developers of Huggle, the antivandalism tool, which you are beta testing (according to https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Huggle/Members#Beta_testers). I am happy to announce that Huggle 3 is ready for some testing. You can read more about it at WP:Huggle/Huggle3_Beta. Please keep in mind that this is a development version and it is not ready for regular use. That means you must:

Watch your contribs - when anything happens you didn't want, fix it and report a bug
Frequently checkout source code and build latest version, we change it a lot

If you find any problem with a feature that is supposed to work perfectly, please let us know. Some features are not ready yet, it is listed in known problems on Huggle3 beta page, you don't need to report these - we know it! So, that's it. Have fun testing and please let us know about any problems, either using bugzilla @ http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/ or #huggle ^connect. Please respond to my talk page, I am not going to watch your talk page. Thank you Petrb (talk) 10:57, 14 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Huggle 3 beta is out - and we need more feedback!

Hey GingerGeek, how are you? I am Petrb, one of huggle developers, and you are currently subscribed as a beta tester of huggle on meta (meta:Huggle/Members. You may not have noticed, but this week I released first beta precompiled installers for ubuntu and microsoft windows! Wikipedia:Huggle/Huggle3_Beta has all the links you need. So if you can, please download it, test it and report all bugs that is really what we need now. Don't forgot that as it's just a beta it's unstable and there are some known issues. Be carefull! Thank you for helping us with huggle Petrb (talk) 16:20, 29 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We need your help testing latest huggle

Hello,

I am sending you this message because you listed yourself on meta:Huggle/Members as a beta tester. We desperately need attention of testers, because since we resolved all release blockers, we are ready to release first official version of huggle 3! Before that happens, it would be nice if you could test it so that we can make sure there are no issues with it. You can download it packaged for your operating system (see Wikipedia:Huggle/Huggle3_Beta) or you can of course build it yourself, see https://github.com/huggle/huggle3-qt-lx for that. Don't forget to use always latest version, there is no auto-update message for beta versions!

Should you find any issue, please report it to wikimedia bugzilla, that is a central place for huggle bugs, where we look at them. That is i mportant, if you find a bug and won't report it, we can't fix it. Thank you for your work on this, if you have any questions, please send me a message on my talk page, I won't be looking for responses here. Thanks, Petrb (talk) 15:12, 10 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

New huggle 3.1 is going to be released soon

Hi GingerGeek, we are to release a new major version of huggle, but we did receive almost no feedback from our beta testing team, which you are a part of (see https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Huggle/Members). It would be of a great help if you could download it (if you have windows, all you need to do is getting http://tools.wmflabs.org/huggle/files/huggle3.1.0beta.exe and putting it to a folder where you have installed huggle) and test it. You can always get a help with making it @ #huggle ^connect!

Major changes:

Multisite support - you can now log in to unlimited number of wikis in 1 huggle session and get a huge queue of all edits made to these wikis. This is good for smaller projects which gets overlooked often.
Ranged diffs - you can select multiple revisions and get a huge diff that display all changes done to them.
Fixes of most of bug reports we had so far

In case you found a bug, please report it to bugzilla: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?product=Huggle&list_id=147663 thank you! Petrb (talk) 10:09, 30 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Huggle message

Hey GingerGeek! You are receiving this message because you are subscribed at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Huggle/Members#Beta_testers

I have recently launched a new downloads for beta testers that contains nightly builds of huggle, eg. versions that are built every day from our master branch and contains latest huggle. These builds are currently provided only for Windows and Ubuntu. You can find them here: http://huggle.wmflabs.org/builds/

Please keep in mind that these don't have any automatic updates and if you download and start using nightly build, you will need to update it yourself! So don't get yourself to running old version, it's possible to install both stable and nightly huggle, which is what I suggest.

Keep the bug reports coming to phabricator: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/create/?projects=Huggle Many thanks! Petrb (talk) 09:57, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
