Improper use of sockpuppet templates

Please stop adding {{sockpuppet}} templates like you did here. The template is used to identify real, abusive sockpuppets, not placeholder accounts. Favonian (talk) 14:03, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited Japanese Nursing Association, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Associations (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) 10:53, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to the 2012 WikiCup

Hello, and welcome to the 2012 WikiCup! The competition officially began at the start of 2012 (UTC), and so you are free to claim any content from after that time. Your submission page, where you must note any content for which you wish to claim points, can be found here, and formatting instructions can be found in hidden comments on the page. A bot will then update the main table, which can be seen on the WikiCup page. The full rules for what will and will not be awarded points can be found at Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring. There's also a section on that page listing the changes that have been made to the rules this year, so that experienced participants can get up-to-date in a few seconds. One point of which we must remind everyone; you may only claim points for content upon which you have done significant work, and which you have nominated, in 2012. For instance, articles written or good article reviews started in 2011 are not eligible for points.

This round will last until late February, and signups will remain open until the middle of February. If you know of anyone who may like to take part, please let them know about the comeptition; the more the merrier! At the end of this round, the top 64 scorers will progress to the next round, where their scores will reset, and they will be split into pools. Note that, by default, you have been added to our newsletter list; we will be in contact at the end of every month with news. You're welcome to remove yourself from this list if you do not wish to hear from us. Conversely, those interested in following the competition are more than welcome to add themselves to the list. Please direct any questions towards the judges, or on the WikiCup talk page. Good luck! J Milburn (talk) and The ed17 (talk) 13:42, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism Template

If you are going to update the vandalism template please sign your own name and either update or erase the previous "info" as it will not be the same. Dan653 (talk) 21:14, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WikiCup/History/2012/Submissions/Message2011

I have reverted your addition. You may claim points for working on an article in such a way that you bring it to featured article status, not merely for editing an article that is already featured. Further, if you have not actually retired, you should have your username changed back. If you have any questions, please contact me on my talk page.

Retirement

You asked to be retired at CHU. I renamed you as requested. You cannot continue to edit Wikipedia if you are retired. If you wish to un-retire, please ask and I will reverse the rename. Otherwise, you will be blocked if you continue editing with an improper username. Thank you. MBisanz ^talk 00:41, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
