Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard, (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button
located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 17:44, 15 April 2021 (UTC) Thanks, I nearly forgot about it.SVcode(Talk) 17:46, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
Actually "I agree because its a pretty short article and can do expansion and rewritting." in that page should be modified a bit (its→it's and rewritting →rewriting). Please proofread the words that you type carefully before submission.--RekishiEJ (talk) 13:27, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 22
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Awrtable, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Pastoralist. 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.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 05:53, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
Nothing about your edits there makes any sense to me. Why would you import the Wikidata description, only to change it to something that is not the reason the article subject was notable less than a minute later? I see that you made seven edits in less than that one minute, suggesting you may be rushing through this task and not paying a lot of attention to the details. Please be more careful. Thanks.

- Sorry would not try to do that again. SVcode(Talk) 00:47, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

Short descriptions
[edit]Please be aware of WP:SDFORMAT, which strongly recommends 40 characters or less. Many of the descriptions you're adding are much longer. Also keep in mind that short descriptions are shown as a subtitle in the search results below the article title. If the article title already contains the park name, then there's no reason to repeat that in the short description.
For example, Raptor (Cedar Point) doesn't need to be "Steel inverted roller coaster at Cedar Point". Instead, use something like "Inverted roller coaster" or "Steel roller coaster". --GoneIn60 (talk) 23:40, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

June election: Jonesey95 was chosen to continue as lead coordinator, assisted by Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis. New maintenance template added to our project scope: After a short discussion in June, we added {{cleanup tense}} to the list of maintenance templates that adds articles to the Guild's copy editing backlog categories. This change added 198 articles, spread over 97 months of backlog, to our queue. We processed all of those articles except for those from the three or four most recent months during the July backlog elimination drive (Here's a link to a "tense" discussion during the drive). Progress report: As of 18:26, 24 September 2021 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors have processed 468 requests since 1 January and there were 60 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog of articles tagged for copy-editing stood at 433 (see monthly progress graph above). Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Jonesey95, Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.
