Speedy deletion nomination of Extra Ordinary (webcomic)
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 Extra Ordinary (webcomic) 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 web content, 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.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. The Elves Of Dunsimore (talk) 06:24, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for October 7
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Last Thing You Forget, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Singles, EP and American (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.

Women's history editathon
Hey - Sorry for the late notice, but since you have yourself tagged as living in the Bay Area, I thought you might appreciate notification that we’re having an event Saturday! It’ll be held at Hoyt Hall, an all-women's house of the Berkeley Student Cooperative from 3 to 6 pm tomorrow. The main event page is here. Anyone is welcome to show up, but we’re expecting a significant number of people to come who have literally never edited Wikipedia before. If you’re an experienced Wikipedian who would be able to provide useful help to some of the newbies, your presence would be especially appreciated (and it might be a good idea for you to show up at 2 or 2:30 instead of three. Thanks, Kevin Gorman (talk) 01:58, 6 April 2013 (UTC) I’m AWB’ing this message to all Wikipedians who have tagged themselves in the bay area. I’m sorry if the message isn’t of interest to you; feel free to delete it. I’ll be unlikely to send future messages in a similar way, but if really don’t want to receive future messages of this sort, please let me know.
Cyberbully
Hello. You recently stated that 'Cyberbully' needed to be improved upon because it read too much like a news paper article. In your opinion, how do you think that it can be rectified? It has been quite some time since I have seen the film. I am in no hurry as I find it quite depressing. If you give me a few hints as to how it can be improved, I will see if I can remember enough of it so that I can attempt to improve upon the 'errors.' Thank you (😺Galaxycat😺 talk 19:00, 5 July 2013 (UTC))
- Sure, nothing big. Most notably the reception section is overwhelmingly positive, even though the film gained a significant amount of notoriety for its quality (direct to tv movies...). It's discussed by Gawker, TV Tropes, a several other sources.
Infobox error
Hi, there seems to be something wrong with the Han Chinese article's infobox. I noticed after you organized the names under the pictures [1], there was a slight format error there, notice the "File:" and "frameless" that shouldn't be there in the infobox. I tried to fix it, but it can't seem to work. Can you take a look at it? Thanks!--Balthazarduju (talk) 01:06, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
Oh by the way, to answer your question on Empress Dowager Cixi. I'm pretty sure Cixi is Manchu, that is why I removed her.--Balthazarduju (talk) 01:06, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
- Interesting... I notice the same issue in Persian people ([2]) now as well, so my first suspicion is that a change in Template:Infobox ethnic group caused this. It looks like there were a couple changes to the template in the last few weeks that could possibly do this, so I'll ask on that page. →

Hi there. Thanks for signing up for the WikiWomen's Edit-a-Thon at Berkeley that is happening today. I look forward to seeing you!

Chien-Shiung Wu
Hi Ozhu, as I said at the Tea House, I have changed the referencing in the Hammond book in the above article to use simplified footnotes. This link shows the difference between your last version and the one I just edited, which should explain how it's done. If you have any more questions, please leave a message on my talk page. Oh, and ignore the {{convert}} template that I also changed - that has nothing to do with it. Cheers, ► Philg88 ◄ ♦talk 09:27, 6 April 2014 (UTC)
OER inquiry
Hi Ozhu, I'm sending you this message because you're one of about 300 users who have recently edited an article in the umbrella category of open educational resources (OER) (or open education). In evaluating several projects we've been working on (e.g. the WIKISOO course and WikiProject Open), my colleague Pete Forsyth and I have wondered who chooses to edit OER-related articles and why. Regardless of whether you've taken the WIKISOO course yourself - and/or never even heard the term OER before - we'd be extremely grateful for your participation in this brief, anonymous survey before 27 April. No personal data is being collected. If you have any ideas or questions, please get in touch. My talk page awaits. Thanks for your support! - Sara FB (talk) 20:46, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

Invitation to WikiProject Post-hardcore
Invitation
Hello, Ozhu,
The Editing team is asking for your help with VisualEditor. I am contacting you because you were one of the very first testers of VisualEditor, back in 2012 or early 2013. Please tell them what they need to change to make VisualEditor work better for you. The team has a list of top-priority problems, but they also want to hear about small problems. These problems may make editing less fun, take too much of your time, or be as annoying as a paper cut. The Editing team wants to hear about and try to fix these small things, too.
You can share your thoughts by clicking this link. You may respond to this quick, simple, anonymous survey in your own language. If you take the survey, then you agree your responses may be used in accordance with these terms. This survey is powered by Qualtrics and their use of your information is governed by their privacy policy.
More information (including a translateable list of the questions) is posted on wiki at mw:VisualEditor/Survey 2015. If you have questions, or prefer to respond on-wiki, then please leave a message on the survey's talk page.
Thank you, Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 18:12, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
