Disambiguation link notification for February 3
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Insect farming, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages National Geographic and PRI (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.

Replaceable fair use File:Screenshot of Evernote 5.png
Thanks for uploading File:Screenshot of Evernote 5.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Seraphimblade Talk to me 22:50, 5 February 2014 (UTC)
March 2014 GAN Backlog Drive
It's that time again! Starting on March 1, there will be another GAN Backlog Drive! There will be several changes compared to previous drives:
- This drive will introduce a new component to it; a point system. In a nutshell, older nominations are worth more points than newer nominations. The top 3 participants who have the points will be awarded the Golden, Silver, or Bronze Wikipedia Puzzle Piece Trophy, respectively.
- Unlike the December 2013 Backlog Drive, earning an additional barnstar if you reached your goal has been removed.
- The allowance to have insufficient reviews has been lowered to 2 before being disqualified.
- An exception to the rule that all reviews must be completed before the deadline has been created.
Also, something that I thought I would share with all of you is that we raised $20.88 (USD) for the WMF in the December 2013 drive. It may not sound like a lot but considering that that was raised just because we reviewed articles, I would say that's pretty good! With that success, pledges can be made for the upcoming drive if you wish.
More info regarding the drive and full descriptions regarding the changes to this drive can be found on the the drive page. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on the drive talk page.
I look forward to your participation and hope that because of it, some day the backlog will be gone!

Hi Steven! As you may know, Rare breed (agriculture) is "Today's [actually this week's] article for improvement". You wrote the lede for it on January 2010, but your text has now found its way to Google Books, where it serves as a blurb for a book on rare breeds that was published later that year. You are invited to join our discussion on this issue at on the article's talk page. Cheers! Madalibi (talk) 12:16, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

FYI
Hi Steven. Just wanted to drop you a note to say don't take comments like this too seriously - it's hyopcritical in the extreme. That user happens to be a sock of a banned en.wiki user - he is only still editting here in that new guise through the corruption and incompetence of various supposedly 'trusted' functionaries on this project. You've probably even heard of him, he's apparently still active on IRC etc, and likes to get involved in technical issues, even though he is completely clueless about it. For full details, speak to en.wiki abritrator Carcharoth (talk · contribs), he has all the evidence that proves he's a sock, and all the names of the functionaries invovled in covering it up. It's also pretty well covered on the badsite (as all the most serious en.wiki cover ups tend to be it seems). I've tried to find out why nothing is being done about his continued illegitimate presence here, but my efforts are being obstructed by those same functionaries. Maybe an WMF staffer would have more success in finding out what's going on down on the farm here at en.wiki - it's bad enough that you have to take largely uninformed flak from legit users each time you roll out new developments designed to improve WMF projects for the average joe, but to have to take it from banned users (whose bans were imposed in part for being clueless about technical matters), is surely too much, no?

OER inquiry
Hi Steven Walling, I'm sending you this message because you're one of about 300 users who have recently edited an article in the umbrella category of open educational resources (OER) (or open education). In evaluating several projects we've been working on (e.g. the WIKISOO course and WikiProject Open), my colleague Pete Forsyth and I have wondered who chooses to edit OER-related articles and why. Regardless of whether you've taken the WIKISOO course yourself - and/or never even heard the term OER before - we'd be extremely grateful for your participation in this brief, anonymous survey before 27 April. No personal data is being collected. If you have any ideas or questions, please get in touch. My talk page awaits. Thanks for your support! - Sara FB (talk) 20:49, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Visy Industries logo.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Visy Industries logo.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. Stefan2 (talk) 14:59, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject Good articles Future GAN Backlog Drive
Hello everyone! Hope you've all been having a great summer!
TheQ Editor recently proposed the idea of having another Backlog Drive in either September/October or November/December of this year. For those of you who have participated in the past two drives you know I was the one who organized them, however, come September, this will be my most important year in school so I will not be able to coordinate this drive (if it happens). TheQ Editor has volunteered to be a coordinator for the drive. If any of you would like to co-coordinator, please notify TheQ Editor on his talk page.
If you would be interested in participating in a Backlog Drive sometime before the end of this year, please notify TheQ Editor. Also, make sure to specify what month(s) work best for you.
At the time this message was sent out, the backlog was at 520 nominations. Since May, the backlog has been steadily increasing and we are currently near an all time high. Even though the backlog will not disappear over one drive, this drive can lead to several others which will (hopefully) lead to the day where there is no longer a backlog.
As always, the more participants, the better, and everyone is encouraged to participate!

GA Cup
Hello everyone! We hope you have all been having a great summer!
As we all know, the recent GAN Backlog Drives have not had any big impact on the backlog. Because of that, me (Dom497), Figureskatingfan, and TheQ Editor have worked on an idea that could possibly finally put a dent into the massive backlog. Now, I will admit, the idea isn't entirely ours as we have took the general idea of the WikiCup and brought it over to WikiProject Good Articles. But anyways, here's what we have in mind:
For all of you that do not know what the WikiCup is, it is an annual competition between several editors to see who can get the most Good Articles, Featured Article's, Did You Know's, etc. Based of this, we propose to you the GA Cup. This competition will only focus on reviewing Good articles.
For more info on the proposal, click here. As a FYI, the proposal page is not what the final product will look like (if you do go ahead with this idea). It will look very similar to WikiCup's page(s).
The discussion for the proposal will take place here. Please let us know if you are interested, have any concerns, things to consider, etc.

WikiProject Good Articles - GA Cup
WikiProject Good articles is holding a new competition, the GA Cup, from October 1, 2014 - March 28, 2015. The Cup will be based on reviewing Good article nominations; for each review, points will be awarded with bonuses for older nominations, longer articles and comprehensive reviews. All participants will start off in one group and the highest scoring participants will go through to the second round. At the moment six rounds are planned, but this may change based on participant numbers. Some of you may ask: what is the purpose for a competition of this type? Currently, there is a backlog of about 500 unreviewed Good article nominations, almost an all time high. It is our hope that we can decrease the backlog in a fun way, through friendly competition. Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors! Sign-ups will be open until October 15, 2014 so sign-up now! If you have any questions, take a look at the FAQ page and/or contact one of the four judges. Cheers from NickGibson3900, Dom497, TheQ Editor and Figureskatingfan. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 19:04, 15 September 2014 (UTC) To receive future GA Cup newsletter, please add your name to our mailing list.

SF edit-a-thons on March 7 and 8
ArtAndFeminism (3/7) and International Women's Day (3/8)! | |
---|---|
Dear fellow Wikipedian, In celebration of WikiWomen's History Month, the SF Bay Area Wikipedia community has two events in early March -- please consider attending! First, we have an ArtAndFeminism edit-a-thon, which will take place at the Kadist Art Foundation from 12 noon to 6pm on Saturday, March 7. We'll be one of many sites worldwide participating in this edit-a-thon on March 7th. So join us as we help improve Wikipedia's coverage of women artists and their works! Second, we will be celebrating International Women's Day with the International Women's Day edit-a-thon on Sunday, March 8 from 1pm to 5pm at the Wikimedia Foundation. Our editing focus will be on women, of course! I hope to see you there!

Disambiguation link notification for March 9
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Arbosana, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page CABI. 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) 09:06, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Invitation
Hello, Steven Walling,
The Editing team is asking for your help with VisualEditor. I am contacting you because you were one of the very first testers of VisualEditor, back in 2012 or early 2013. Please tell them what they need to change to make VisualEditor work better for you. The team has a list of top-priority problems, but they also want to hear about small problems. These problems may make editing less fun, take too much of your time, or be as annoying as a paper cut. The Editing team wants to hear about and try to fix these small things, too.
You can share your thoughts by clicking this link. You may respond to this quick, simple, anonymous survey in your own language. If you take the survey, then you agree your responses may be used in accordance with these terms. This survey is powered by Qualtrics and their use of your information is governed by their privacy policy.
More information (including a translateable list of the questions) is posted on wiki at mw:VisualEditor/Survey 2015. If you have questions, or prefer to respond on-wiki, then please leave a message on the survey's talk page.
Thank you, Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 18:12, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
Unethical activity?
It was suggested on the Quora talk page that you are abusing your position and access to technology (notably, bots) to preserve Quora's reputation on Wikipedia.
You should be aware of this. Your claims about Quora have been sharply questioned using sources at least as credible as those you cite. As an employee, you should be quite careful not to be caught involving yourself in stock price manipulations. As a Wikimedia Foundation employee, you should be quite careful not to be caught using one-shot account bots to do your dirty work. You could lose both jobs over this.
Now perhaps you will attempt to censor the records, or trace the IP of this account, or whatever, but it won't matter. The letters will be sent to both boards and the paragraph explaining the suspicious editing and advocacy of a "near-unicorn" valuation for Quora.
Even Jimmy Wales does not change things on his BLP that he strongly objects to. Given your deep COI you should not be advocating, and certainly not using bots.
If someone else at Quora is using bots for this purpose, you should report them to Wikimedia Foundation immediately. Until you do, you're the prime suspect.
No way this ends here. Be very careful, your career is on the line. Both boards (Wikimedia, Quora) will be notified if there is any more of this manipulation.
Specifically, do not remove the POV tag from the Quora article or advocate its removal. Someone with a COI as deep as yours has nothing to offer on that. Your COI is too deep to be involved in the Quora article, and your dual position at Wikimedia and Quora may be seen as a manipulation in itself. That is, as part of a scheme by Quora to control how it's portrayed in social media. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Erantan (talk • contribs) 18:12, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

#define vandalism
Can you please explain to me, why is vandalism if i add a popular culture reference to an 8-bit microcomputer's article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.36.12.34 (talk) 17:50, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
More vandalism at The Assayer
The page The Assayer was protected by you a week ago. As soon as the protection expired there is more vandalism by anonymous IPs. I would appreciate a lengthier protection of the page. Tkuvho (talk) 12:12, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Tkuvho: In this case it looks like just one IP, which isn't enough to justify protection. Also, it appears that IP is engaged in a good faith content dispute over a few points, and not engaged in vandalism. I encourage you to discuss the issue with them on the Talk page. If they violate three revert rule or other policies I can block the IP. Steven Walling • talk 17:59, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
- There is by now an assortment of IP's interfering with the page. Please add protection. Tkuvho (talk) 09:15, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
- There are by now 5 IPs involved in vandalism at the page. Related pages Galileo Galilei and Galileo affair are already protected. Please add protection here as well. Tkuvho (talk) 08:30, 24 June 2015 (UTC)

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, you recently approved the protection request for Marriage Boot Camp however the page isn't actually protected, and I think a bot may have intervened after your edit. Would you mind re-checking it? Thanks -- Whats new?(talk) 06:25, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Techstars-logo.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Techstars-logo.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) 03:45, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

Could you please explain the reason for adding advertising tag to this article? Please point me to the specific parts of the text and sources. Thank you. --N Jordan (talk) 18:17, 22 February 2016 (UTC)
- @N Jordan: There are a bunch of reasons this needs to be either tagged as an advert or significantly rewritten:
- the article was obviously mostly written by the founder of the company (Henrik Nielsen, writing as User:Henrikinfrance) who has done nothing but add content about Handpresso.
- all but two of the 7 sources are primary sources, not secondary sources that verify notability
- the article is too heavy on PR-style product specs and mentions of design awards
- The relevant core guideline is WP:NOTADVERTISING, which summarizes as, "Information about companies and products must be written in an objective and unbiased style, free of puffery. All article topics must be verifiable with independent, third-party sources..." Steven Walling • talk 19:19, 22 February 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you for your prompt response. User:Henrikinfrance passed away few years ago. In 2014, I edited this article and added independent, third-party sources. If you think that any of those sources is not independent, please point me in the right direction. I would really appreciate your help.--N Jordan (talk) 19:41, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 4
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Napa Valley Marathon, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Napa. 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.

Bay Area WikiSalon series kickoff, April 27
The last Wednesday evening of every month, wiki enthusiasts in the San Francisco Bay Area will gather to collaborate, mingle, and learn about new projects and ideas. We have two brief presentations lined up for our kickoff event in downtown San Francisco:
- The Nueva Upper School recently hosted the first ever high school Wikipedia edit-a-thon. We will hear what interests them about Wikipedia, what they have learned so far, and what they hope to achieve.
- Photojournalist Kris Schreier Lyseggen, author of The Women of San Quentin: The Soul Murder of Transgender Women in Male Prisons, will tell us about her work and how she researched the topic.
We allow time for informal conversation and working on articles. Newcomers and experienced wiki users are encouraged to attend. We will have beverages and light snacks.
Please note: You must register here, and bring a photo ID that matches your registration name. The building policy is strict on this point.
For further details, see here: Wikipedia:Bay Area WikiSalon, April 2016
We hope to see you -- and until then, happy editing! - Pete, Ben & Wayne

Simpsonwave deletion
Hi, I saw you closed the AfD page for Simpsonwave. I still feel it isn't really needed as a separate page. A lot of the citations link to sources essentially giving the same information. It would possibly be better placed in a merge situation. I'm newish to Wikipedia beyond minor amendments to articles, so I'm not brilliant with knowing what process to take exactly. On the Talk Page, the general consensus seems to be merge/delete. What's a better way to progress? Hookorcrook (talk) 13:20, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
- @Hookorcrook: Just because the information in the sources is somewhat duplicative is not a rationale to merge or delete a subject. Even in core topics like sheep or Portland, Oregon, most of the core basic information is the same across sources, so it makes sense that for a more new and obscure topic it would be very much the same. There are more than enough sources to meet the general notability guideline and provide adequate verification, so there's no reason to delete it. The Simpsons is a huge article and tacking on more to it is not wise for readability. Steven Walling • talk 04:35, 19 June 2016 (UTC) P.S. Great username. Very clever :)
Invitation to the Bay Area WikiSalon series, Wednesday, June 29
The last Wednesday evening of every month, wiki enthusiasts gather at Bay Area WikiSalon to collaborate, mingle, and learn about new projects and ideas.
We make sure to allow time for informal conversation and working on articles. Newcomers and experienced wiki users are encouraged to attend. Free Wi-Fi is available so bring your editing devices. We will have beverages and light snacks. We will also have:
- A brief report on Pride edit-a-thon recently held at the San Francisco Publice Library, coordinated by Merrilee:
- What topics might we cover in a follow up?
- Find out more about resources your public library provides to help with editing (hint, it's more than just books!)
- Special announcement (secret for now but come and find out more!)
- Join in on an in person Wikidojo!
- Are you curious how your peers approach writing a Wikipedia article? This exercise, pioneered by Wikipedians Nikola Kalchev and Vassia Atanassova in 2015 and conducted in many places around the world, will help us all - from first-time wiki users to veteran Wikipedians - share ideas, while building an article together. If you have ideas (relating to Bay Area history, ideally) about a new article we could build (stubs and short existing articles are fine), please submit them ahead of time to coordinator Pete Forsyth. (User talk page or email is fine.)
- Announcements and impromptu topics are welcome, too!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly; your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. -- SuggestBot (talk) 23:38, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Alfred screenshot.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Alfred screenshot.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) 17:26, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
