welcoming

Please do not welcome users until they have contributed. Firstly it can sound patronising ('thanks for your contributions? I haven't done anything!') and secondly it can scare some users off. Ironholds (talk) 21:48, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Welcomes

Hi Mario1987. As nice as it is that you're welcoming new users, it'd be better if you stop your current method. Generally, we only welcome users who have made at least one (non-vandal) edit. 90% of our new accounts never edit, so welcoming them is a waste of time, energy and bandwidth. Additionally, the red-linked talk page is very useful for people dealing with vandalism. Turning it blue slows their useful work. Thanks. ➨ ❝ЯEDVERS❞ a reasonably good buy 09:41, 12 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Portal

It looks very nice, I don't really have time to contribute to the Argentine one, my list of things to do seems to double in size every 3 months, just going through my watchlist and the New footy articles takes up most of the time I have for editing these days. Good luck with it. King of the North East 22:02, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mario! Thanks for letting me know about the existence of that portal. Is there anything else to say but "great to have that, good job, keep up the good work?" --Vlad|-> 10:28, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, but no thanks!... Lately I don't have anymore the time I used to have for wiki... so I'm just browsing around and fixing stuff where I see it to be broken. Moreover, I never could edit something in a particular category (i.e. I'm a football enthusiast, a fan sometimes, I love football, but I don't think I've got the patience to edit about it... :) But good luck in recruiting more members. If you don't have an account yet, I recommend you to come over to the Romanian wikipedia, I think that there are some football fans there too!... --Vlad|-> 10:47, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent job, it could be compared with other football portals that are probably bigger. However, I won't contribute to that portal (or some kind of a Romanian football project, if it would exist). It's not only because I have too much work right now, but I also believe I am still being misunderstood after I did all that job on Romanian Cup 2008–09. I'm not that interested in Romanian football in general but I'm writing/editing/contributing to this season's European football articles and therefore Romanian Cup article was just part of that work, nothing more. Anyway, great job with the portal and I hope you will have enough editors to support it. Bye! SonjiCeli (talk) 11:18, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

DYK

I would like to help in reviewing the WP:DYK, suggestions section. How can i do that? Do i have to have a special status for ex. to be a member of WP:DYK? Thanks in advance. Mario1987 20:32, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, there is no special requirements to start checking the DYKs. All you need to do is know the rules. You can read them on the DYK page. You need to check that the article is either new, or 5x expanded the last five days (first edit on the day it is listed), that the hook is referenced (including reading the reference if it is online) and is in the article, and that the hook is no more than 200 characters. I think it should re fairly well documented on the DYK page. A tip can be to install the java script importScript('User:Dr_pda/prosesize.js'); //[[User:Dr_pda/prosesize.js]] on your monobook page (add the above code to User:Mario1987/monobook.js). This allows you a one-click check of the readable prose length (the part that is qualifiable for DYK). I've seen some of your work around, and I find it quite interesting (of course, it is in a field I enjoy reading about too). Good luck, and please ask if there is anything you wonder about.

hi there,

do you mean with 5x an article has to be expanded five times the size by me (or someone else) in order to be nominated? Seems a tall order if that would be the case. Gryffindor (talk) 20:30, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Monuments in Chişinău

I notice that this category you created is unpopulated (empty). In other words, no Wikipedia pages belong to it. If it remains unpopulated for four days, it may be deleted, without discussion, in accordance with Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#C1. I'm notifying you in case you wish to (re-)populate it by adding [[Category:Monuments in Chişinău]] to articles/categories that belong in it.

I blanked the category page. This will not, in itself, cause the category to be deleted. It serves to document (in the page history) that the category was empty at the time of blanking and also to alert other watchers that the category is in jeopardy. You are welcome to revert the blanking if you wish. However, doing so will not prevent deletion if the category remains empty.

If you created the category in error, or it is no longer needed, you can speed up the deletion process by tagging it with {{db-author}}.

Am intrebat pe Wikipedia_talk:WPF si cei de acolo au fost de acord ca acel portarl nu are ce cauta pe pagina cluburilor. Tu ce parere ai ? LaUr3nTiU (talk) 15:56, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Ramazan Abbasov

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Ramazan Abbasov, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Has been unsourced for 3 months, fails the sourcing requirement at WP:BLP

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:DMHI.jpg)

⚠

Thanks for uploading Image:DMHI.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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk) 00:48, 8 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for File:Oncescu-kbile5-thumb-250-0-18.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Oncescu-kbile5-thumb-250-0-18.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 12:20, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use Image:Oncescu-kbile5-thumb-250-0-18.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Oncescu-kbile5-thumb-250-0-18.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 12:35, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

List_of_Nobel_laureates_by_country

What are you doing to this list. Out of your dozens edits, I have found a few which are correct (i.e., they follow the information on this site [1]).

Most of you changes, however, appear absolutely arbitrary. Sometime you delete a middle name, sometimes you add it. Sometimes you expand an initial to the full name, in other cases you delete the initial.

Please stop editing and have this clarified first. Tomeasy_{T C} 09:09, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

DYK

Hello, Bine Mai. You have new messages at Soman's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

--Soman (talk) 20:20, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mario, I do appreciate your work for DYK and have nothing against you personally. I look through many DYK noms and if I find something clear (+ or -), I reply, if not, I leave it to others. Thats why I wrote on your noms - they are lacking proper references, thats all, nothing serious or special. I don't speak Romanian, but I can read several european languages (both east and west), which make it easier for me to read some Romanian too. Cheers. Materialscientist (talk) 11:21, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

IMO, the notability of Satu Maru topics is on the edge - the mayor is notable. Colleges themselves are probably notable enough to have a WP article per each, but, the DYK hook merely listing their names is by no means notable. Materialscientist (talk) 12:31, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mario, I do sympathize your efforts to let the world know more about Romania. I just feel you need to choose things which would be more interesting to outsiders to read (I mean for DYK, for WP articles being "interesting" is not so important), and which would be easier to support by independent references. I often get into such situation myself and try to find topics which are covered in English-speaking literature. Right now I have several cool facts, which I can't publish because of that (no reliable refs.). Cheers. Materialscientist (talk) 12:40, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pyrrhotite

It meets all the requirements. It is not a stub by any standard. By "assessment" you mean the project tag on the talk page? That is totally irrelevant. --BorgQueen (talk) 12:33, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As I said, that is totally irrelevant. --BorgQueen (talk) 12:39, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No. What makes you think it is necessary? The Geology wikiproject does not have anything to do with the DYK. --BorgQueen (talk) 12:42, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Play & Win (band)

A tag has been placed on Play & Win (band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Play & Win (band)

OK, they look reasonably notable to me. I'm probably getting a bit trigger-happy as a result of all these Myspace bands who seem to think it's their right to have a Wikipedia article. I'll remove the tag, sorry to bother you with this mistake. Jonathan Hall (talk) 13:56, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
