Speedy deletion nomination of Asustor
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Asustor 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 company, corporation or organization that does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. creffett (talk) 21:01, 28 August 2019 (UTC)

Hello!
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Release Radar
Hello. Are you sure that Release Radar isn't unique? You don't need Spotify account to see list. Eurohunter (talk) 22:27, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- It's automatically generated once a week based on each Spotify user's listening habits, so a song being included in a particular user's Release Radar (out of millions of Spotify users) is not anything notable. Yes I know I don't need a Spotify account to view another user's Release Radar (if she has made her Release Radar public), but that doesn't change a thing. feminist (talk) 02:40, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
- I don't use Spotify so I don't know but it looks like playlist provided by Spotify, not by any user. Could you provide release radar playlist by any user? Eurohunter (talk) 17:20, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
- Spotify provides a unique Release Radar playlist to every user once a week. Each Spotify playlist is computer-generated based on each user's listening habits. As a Spotify user, my Release Radar, for example, is completely different from what was originally cited on Home (Basshunter song). feminist (talk) 03:25, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Feminist: There must be two types of release radars, private and public. What do you think about it? Eurohunter (talk) 16:50, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- Spotify users can set their playlists (including their Release Radar) public or private, but it doesn't make the content of any particular user's Release Radar notable for a Wikipedia mention. feminist (talk) 11:49, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

In June 2018, you suggested that I work directly on the Wikipedia:Vital articles/Level/5 list, seeing as how it would be more helpful for Wikipedia as a whole. Now in response to this, I would like to give you a notification that I intend to not only stay with my personal VAs list, but take it to the next level this time! I had ideas for a list like this as far back as February 2014, and back then, I decided to grant vital status to an unheard-of 100,000 articles. Now that an extensive Vital Articles list has been made official, I have decided to revert to the original article count intended for my max-level Personal VAs list, with something that should prove to impress the Vital Articles community and be the granddaddy of all VAs lists on Wikipedia, with twice the proposed count for the Level-5 list. To accomplish this feat, I may need help with the quotas set for my list and where to allocate them, as well as what I should include in or exclude from my list. Although simply copying the official VAs list, as well as its past revisions, would be a great place to start. My apologies if this is unnecessary, but I just had to give you fair warning that I intend to do this. I hope for good luck as I make this endeavor and would appreciate it if I was supported by the likes of you. --SethAllen623 (discussion/contributions), November 27, 2019, 07:16 UTC.

British Milk sheep
Hi Feminist
Just wondering the reason for the move close at Talk:British Milksheep, you haven't given a rationale for the close. I provided solid sources saying that the breed is often known as British Milk or British Milk sheep, and although the British Milksheep title does appear in some sources, no evidence was presented that it is more common than the previous title. Just listing a number of sources doesn't prove a WP:COMMONNAME. I think more evidence should be provided before moving away from the status quo. Thanks — Amakuru (talk) 11:13, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
- The consensus at the move discussion supports the move to "British Milksheep". Justlettersandnumbers, the RM nominator, is of the view that the sources you provided do not support the title "British Milk sheep". The RM discussion has run for more than a month and no other editors have supported retaining the current title. Participants at the RM consider the sources provided as supporting "British Milksheep" as the WP:COMMONNAME of the topic. feminist (talk) 14:30, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi. I'm a bit surprised at your closure of Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2020_September_11#Halloed.

I just dropped by ...
... to say that I like your new signature. While I'm here, I'd like to thank you for writing Sanders-Trump voters. I find the whole situation to be quite shocking. I'm a Bernie supporter, but I voted for Hillary and will vote for Joe. Never in a million years would I ever vote for Trump. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 21:40, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
- You're welcome. To attract swing voters, we must always try to understand why they vote the way they do, even though it may seem inexplicable at first glance. Then we can target them effectively. feminist (talk) wear a mask, you stupid bastards 02:17, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi, the nominator has retired from Wikipedia. If someone cannot fix the article issues and submit a new hook, I suggest we just fail this. Yoninah (talk) 16:02, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
- Yoninah, I have suggested a new hook, and the article issues appear to merely be minor details that are perhaps not translated well. This shouldn't be difficult to fix. I'll look into them. feminist (talk) | free Hong Kong 02:48, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

A userbox for you!
I have seen that you are supporting the independence of Hong Kong through signatures. Well, instead of doing so through signatures, I suggest you should use a userbox to show that you are supporting the independence of Hong Kong. Insert independence{{!}}Hong Kong
