Feel free to leave me a message on this page.

Thanks to the talk page of Jack Phoenix on WikiTutorials for most of the source of the handy box above

Kudos and other feedback

Colbert

Thanks for the compliment. People don't compliment each other enough on Wikipedia. Given all the arguments I've been in the middle of, it's really nice to hear your kind words.

Excellent rewrite of the intro. It's something we struggled with, when we all were first creating the article, but it never really seemed to gel. You must have some magic writing dust — it's amazing how fast you took a really really degenerated intro and made it shine. Your user page says that you've been a user since June 15, 2006. We could have really used you in May.

It's always nice working with talented contributors. Hopefully, we'll cross wiki-paths again in the future. -- Brian.fsm 05:35, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Interwikitionary

Hi/Terve/Hej Ronja!

Interwiki linking is a rather nice feature, and may even be used as a kind of advanced dictionary (as one of my colleagues points out for their students).

I followed the link to your French user page; and after that, I just tested Wikipedia:Interwiki. This soon led me to the French "official" translations Lien interwiki and lien inter-langue for Interwiki link. If you incidently are interested. (Mostly, I was interested in how braver people make French user pages... I've not dared yet...)

Why I stopped contributing to Wikipedia

The below saved messages are just two examples of a trend of USA-centrism that is completely unacceptable for an encyclopedia. This European prefers not to waste her precious time fighting systemic bias in Wikipedia. I wish all the luck to those who can take the time to do so. --Ronja (talk) 12:35, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A: HERCA, a top European security+safety organization, is "not notable enough" -> speedily deleted

Speedy deletion nomination of Heads of European Radiological protection Competent Authorities (HERCA)

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 Heads of European Radiological protection Competent Authorities (HERCA) 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 an organization or company, 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". 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 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. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 20:11, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up. I checked Candidates for speedy deletion, and did not find the page listed, and there was no notice on the (moved) page itself, now Heads of European Radiological Protection Competent Authorities, so I guess all is well? --Ronja (talk) 04:59, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Heads of European Radiological Protection Competent Authorities

The article Heads of European Radiological Protection Competent Authorities has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

no evidence of notability

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:08, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Great! An organization that coordinates much of the radiation and nuclear safety strategy of 300 million people is not notable. Neither convincing, Wikipedia, nor appealing to common sense - nor motivating, for that matter. I thought also other editors could develop stubs - I guess I misunderstood how this community works... --Ronja (talk) 15:21, 20 March 2013 (UTC) ; text color and bolding added 22 July 2019[reply]

B: Ken Tipton, a one-time indie film director in the USA, is notable enough to keep

The Ken Tipton stub still exists. The prosecution rests. --Ronja (talk) 12:04, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Proofreading translations from Finnish to English?

Dear Ronja,
I was so pleased to have discovered your user page via the transclusions of the Finnish translator icon page, but am now saddened to find that you have decided no longer to contribute here, at the en.wiki. I am nonetheless hopeful that you might still be monitoring this page for new activity, and that you might consider assisting me in a new project, for which I require the occasional proofreading assistance of a native speaker of suomen kieli.
Here goes: I found that there is a bunch of former municipalities of Finland for which there are no articles here at the en.wiki. So, I first decided to create a stub article for Lauritsala, just to prove to myself that I could do this. I enjoyed it so much that I thought it would be useful to do the same for all the other ones. To this end, I created a project page in my user space.
If/when you have the time (and inclination?), I would be grateful if you could take a look at it, simply to familiarise yourself with my goal and method of approach. I found that the Google Translator is surprisingly good at translating the wikitext at fi.wiki into reasonable English; so, all I need is the collaboration of a native Finnish speaker to proofread the final drafts of each stub after I’ve completed them, and just before I move them in main article space. I imagine this might require up to an hour in each case and, since it took me about 10 days to create the first stub, I would send you a heads up from each talk page when each stub is ready for proofreading. Also, there are about 50 stubs to create, so I dare say it would be a fairly long-running project.
I hope to have whetted your appetite for what I think would be a fun collaboration, and I look forward to receiving a response from you at your convenience. Please know that I would totally respect your decision if you decline but, if I hadn’t asked, I would never have known that you might have said ‘Yes’.
So, thank you very much for reading all this, and for your consideration.
With kind regards for now;
Patrick. ツ Pdebee.^(talk)^{(become old-fashioned!)} 12:18, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
