Electoral districts
[edit]Well, I don't know about any automated processes for making pages, but I wouldn't mind helping out. My French isn't the best however, so you'd have to watch my grammar and all :) Bonne chance! -- Earl Andrew - talk 22:17, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
- Sounds great -- Earl Andrew - talk 23:57, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
Translations
[edit]Thanks for adding the translations to Knox College (Toronto) and the former Ewart College...now, how about a translation for The Presbyterian College, Montreal / Le Collège Presbytèrien? Bacl-presby 01:17, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- I might do it sometime. We're trying to get featured article status for fr:Université de Toronto, which is why we did a translation blitz for all the articles connected to it (colleges and whatnot). dh ▪ 2¢ ▪ 22:57, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit]Sorry, but I don't speak French. I have, however, noticed the translations, and am flattered since the articles are largely my work. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 17:02, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Image:Stockwellburtday.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Stockwellburtday.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{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 the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. Abu badali (talk) 18:43, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
The article Chris Pearson (radio) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Non-notable radio presenter.
While all 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. Elongated shorty (talk) 23:20, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Digging.holes. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Digging.holes~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: Special:GlobalRenameRequest. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk)

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.
