Wikipedia Help Survey
[edit]Hi there, my name's Peter Coombe and I'm a Wikimedia Community Fellow working on a project to improve Wikipedia's help system. At the moment I'm trying to learn more about how people use and find the current help pages. If you could help by filling out this brief survey about your experiences, I'd be very grateful. It should take less than 10 minutes, and your responses will not be tied to your username in any way.
Thank you for your time,

"Blood donation by country"
[edit]Hi, just wanted to respond to your suggestion of a category and template. I'm no expert on the subject, but I worked a bit on the Bangladesh article. Didn't find a lot of material, but noticed a few citations to one of the articles cited there, and you might want to try web searches based on it:
- Hosain, G.M.M.; Anisuzzaman, M.; Begum, A. (1997). "Knowledge and attitude towards voluntary blood donation among Dhaka University students in Bangladesh". East African Medical Journal 74 (9): 549–553.

Disambiguation link notification for March 4
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rochester, Iowa, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page CDP (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.

Re: Two transliteration suggestions
[edit]Hello Lo Ximiendo,
Thank you for your suggestions. I currently am quite busy in daily life and do not have time to update that transliteration tool, nevertheless you can continue to give your suggestions via email or by leaving a message on my Wikipedia usertalk page and I can update those lists in bulk.
Yes, it is true that the Northern Min transliteration tool (based on the Jian'ou dialect) is not [yet] as comprehensive as the Eastern Min and Southern Min transliteration tools.
This is because I have not yet found an online dictionary or book publication which contains a comprehensive listing of the romanized northern min vocabulary.
By the way, if you are interested in knowing more about the Northern Min language written in the romanization used by the missionaries a century ago, you can now view the entire Northern Min Romanized New Testament online. (If you click "上一頁" (it would take you to the previous page", and clicking on "下一頁" would take you to the next page). Alternatively, you can toggle through by entering the page number, eg:
It would contain a huge wealth of words and vocab.
Some of those words I am able to guess/decipher what their chinese character equivalents are, whereas there are some words which I am not completely sure yet and would need help from a native Northern Min speaker to shed more light on it.
Generally speaking, when those western missionaries published a romanized Bible in a certain sinitic language, they would also subsequently publish a dictionary which shows the Chinese Character and its romanized equivalent. I have not yet found such a dictionary for this particular dialect (Jian'ou, formerly known in those days as "Kienow").
Anyway, even if such a dictionary was never published at that time, it would still be possible to obtain help from native speakers of that language. I am not currently living in China (especially in the Northern Min speaking region), hence it would be slightly more difficult for me to get the full list of chinese character to Northern Min conversion tables.
In the future, if I ever encounter a native Northern Min speaker online or if I have the time to visit the Northern Min region, then I would have the chance to get that Northern Min transliteration tool substantially updated with the full list of vocab. --JackonLee54 (talk) 10:20, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
- By the way, how did you first encounter (ie. discover) my transliteration blog on blogger.com? What was the keyword that you typed? --JackonLee54 (talk) 10:21, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
- The external links of the article on Kienning Colloquial Romanized. All because I wanted to add, to a certain template at Wiktionary, a parameter for Min Bei pronunciation. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 10:29, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

Unblock request
[edit]Hello- I would like to be unblocked from posting comments to my userpage. I have new responses on my Wiktionary user page that I would like to comment on. I can accept being blocked for three months from editing on English Wiktionary mainspace, but I don't see how I earned getting blocked off my userpage. Is there a process to go through in terms of getting a decision on whether or not to let me comment on my userpage? Nobody who doesn't want to interact with me has to write on my userpage, and I have responses to my proposal. Geographyinitiative (talk) 23:51, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Teqvoly
[edit]Hello Apisite,
Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username JJPMaster, and I thank you for your contributions.
I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged an article that you started, Teqvoly for deletion, because it appears to be about something that you or someone you know personally invented, coined, or discovered, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important and/or recognized enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.
For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|JJPMaster}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

- @JJPMaster: Teqvoly is a variation of Teqball, which uses a curved table and a volley ball instead of a soccer ball. --Apisite (talk) 00:57, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Apisite: I added the tag because the article was unsourced and had an external link to a YouTube channel, but have removed it and have decided to draftify it instead. JJP...MASTER![talk to] JJP... master? 00:58, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Fungi of Michigan
[edit]
A tag has been placed on Category:Fungi of Michigan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
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. Liz Read!
