2015 already

Hi Guerillero. No frills - just a quiet ‘’all the best’’ to you for 2015 and I hope you’ll continue to be around on Wikipedia for a long time to come. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 15:43, 1 January 2015 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 launch newsletter

Round one of the 2015 WikiCup has begun! So far we've had around 80 signups, which close on February 5. If you have not already signed up and want to do so, then you can add your name here. There have been changes to to several of the points scores for various categories, and the addition of Peer Reviews for the first time. These will work in the same manner as Good Article Reviews, and all of the changes are summarised here.

Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round, and one of the new changes this year is that all scores must be claimed within two weeks of an article's promotion or appearance, so don't forget to add them to your submissions pages! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

La web de Rebecca Liljeberg te varis errors. M'he disposat a corretgirlos i no fas mes que borrar-m'ho tot. Quants mes errors hi hauran dins WP? Adeu — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tekateado (talk • contribs) 03:25, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tekateado: I don't speak Catalan, but from what I got from google translate, you are objecting to my reversion to your links. While I sympathize with your goal of making the article better, adding links to fan sites is not going to do it. --Guerillero | My Talk 03:36, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

Hey.

What are you doing to WrestleMania XXVI? Are you trying vandalize it?Philgta5 (talk) 03:09, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

@Philgta5: I removed some of the unencyclopedic fancruft that was written from a in universe perspective. Several sections were so bad that I removed most of it so someone could start over. Before you revert me, I suggest you reread what a Secondary Reliable Source is and the Manual of Style for writing about Fiction. --Guerillero | My Talk 03:44, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

Article you edited at Af

You added a Prod to Dimi (metric prefix) (diff) and that was replaced by a redirect. I have nominated a bundle of articles for deletion, including this one, because I think there should be a central discussion. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aum (unit).

Disambiguation link notification for January 8

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Richard Withers, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hermitage. 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.

Potential unblock

Guerillero, if you have acccess to UTRS, could you take a look at UTRS #12683 (link) and let me know what you think about extending some rope? --Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:33, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

@Ponyo: Why not? If they are willing to do something but make crap in their userpace, I am game --Guerillero | My Talk 23:39, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Infobox for A Rape on Campus Reply

I'm currently going through WP:WikiProject Gender Studies articles and labeling any that don't have an infobox. I'm surprised that there isn't something under journalism, magazines or a template in Category:Publishing infobox templates for individual notable articles. If it's parameters were similar to Template:Cite news done as an infobox then there wouldn't be any opportunity for POV pushing. Neither side would dispute the day it appeared, the publication it was in, the headline for the article, or that the article itself was notable for the controversy that it caused. I think it's a case of a infobox template that is missing from Wikipedia. --The Vintage Feminist (talk) 01:38, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Heads Up: GG is giving you the stinky eye

KiA is plotting to get you banned for (IIUC) being a meat puppet of Ryulong. Your voting patterns seems to have displeased them.

Everyone needs to do this as an IP user. Let's see them wade through no more than 300 requests to have Guerillero lifetime domain-wide blocked.

This might produce some spam, but for the moment their efforts are mostly amusing. just a FYI. --GreggHamster (talk) 17:19, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
