Re: Category:Hood Films

Category:Urban crime films is much more encyclopedic for the "crime" films. For the others, move them up into Category:African American films. "Hood Films" is just...besides being colloquial, there's the racial implications of having "Hood Films" be a subcat of "African-American films". I'd evenb consider not making Category:Urban crime films, and simply moving the relevant films into Category:Crime films. --FuriousFreddy 23:27, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's why I said take the non-crime films out of the category, and move them into Category:African American films. "Hood films" isn't encyclopedic. --FuriousFreddy 01:30, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Template:User 1440x900

A tag has been placed on Template:User 1440x900 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).

Thanks. --MZMcBride (talk) 22:16, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An invitation to join WikiProject Ohio

Hi, you are listed under Category:Wikipedians in Ohio or one of its subcategories. WikiProject Ohio has been slowing down and we're looking for active Ohioans to turn that around! But first, let us introduce ourselves; we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to Ohio and we're sure there's somewhere you'll fit in just fine. The project's departments include article quality assessment: We have over 5,000 articles to assess for class alone, newsletter writing: This has been delayed by a few months, and new page patrolling: Which has also been slowing down. We also have a newly formed taskforce on our over 1,000 townships at WP:OHTWP.

We have 132 members, many of which are not active within the project. If you are listed there and still received this message please accept the auotmated porcess's apologies. If you are interested in joining us please list you name here. If you're not interested please note this is a one time invite and you will never hear from us again.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to leave a message at our talkpage or with any member of the project, we'll be happy to answer any of your questions. We look forward to seeing you around!

ArbCom elections are now open!

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.

I reported this to AIV as a compromised account; it's possible this is just a person who's gone troll. Either way they should be done here. power~enwiki (π, ν) 21:39, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the above and I planned to report as a compromised account if they make such edit again. -★- PlyrStar93 _{→Message me. ←} 21:41, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
