Re: Nazi Germany
[edit]No, of course not, I was merely doing RC patrol, and it was against one IP address. I'm not a regular at that article, maybe you can find someone who is at the talk page. --Pilotguy (roger that) 16:52, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
|
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 14:50, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
{{Year-in-poetry-stub}}
[edit]Hi - a stub template or category which you created has been nominated for deletion or renaming at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion. The stub type, which was not proposed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, does not meet the standard requirements for a stub type, either through being incorrectly named, ambiguously scoped, or through failure to meet standards relating to the current stub hierarchy or likely size, as explained at Wikipedia:Stub. Please feel free to make any comments at WP:SFD regarding this stub type, and in future, please consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 02:17, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
Acid Rain & Editting in General
[edit]When you aim to make a series of edits, just edit the whole page and do it in one go if at all possible. By saving and then editing again, it means that patrolling people who are looking to clean-up mark-up etc can cause and edit conflict. Obviously we all miss stuff, but try to do everything in one go (use the whole article tag, rather than section edits to sort it out). Thanks for your help Philipwhiuk 16:57, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- Hi. Yes, I normally do, but on this occasion the markup was blasted and I missed it when I saved the page - I actually had to undo my contribution and do it again, hence the three edits to the article. Cheers!Pedro | Chat 11:12, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for December 29
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited CAPRI OS, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages SSL and SSH. 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.

[edit]Disambiguation link notification for March 21
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Wetherspoons, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tim Martin (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Clap for our Carers has been nominated for Did You Know
[edit]Hello, Philipwhiuk. Clap for our Carers, an article you either created or to which you significantly contributed, has been nominated to appear on Wikipedia's Main Page as part of Did you know. You can see the hook and the discussion here. You are welcome to participate! Thank you. EnterpriseyBot (talk!) 01:53, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
DYK for Clap for Our Carers
[edit]On 14 May 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Clap for Our Carers, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Britons are being urged to clap for their carers every Thursday evening during the country's COVID-19 pandemic? You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Clap for Our Carers), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
