Pink Floyd

Hi, thanks for tidying Pink Floyd, though one query - was there any reason you removed the fact that Waters would consider touring Dark Side with the other three? Thanks, --HighHopes ^{(T)⋅(+)⋅(C)⋅(E)} 12:16, 27 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The same information was given in a previous section: "I hope we do it again. If some other opportunity arose, I could even imagine us doing Dark Side of the Moon again - you know, if there was a special occasion. It would be good to hear it again".

Teiladnam 13:27, 27 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Then many thanks indeed! --HighHopes ^{(T)⋅(+)⋅(C)⋅(E)⋅(P)} 11:47, 28 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice

Hi,

As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.

We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.

You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

RfD nomination of Murrrrderrrrr

Proposed deletion of President of the Internet

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article President of the Internet, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

This is just silly. Hundreds of individuals claim this 'presidency' just because. Redirect is not appropriate, neither is listing them all.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Rror (talk) 17:05, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alex Jones (radio)

Hello Teiladnam: I reverted your last edit on the Alex Jones (radio) article because I think it indicates that the reliable sources are somehow not so reliable. Alex Jones' own statements about his political leanings are not as strong as those made about him by experts. If a criminal states that he did not commit a crime it does not affect the fact that he is a such-and-such criminal. In other words, Alex Jones may say that he is not a right-winger, but the fact that several experts have labeled him such is much more reliable. My example involving a criminal is poor but it was the one that came to my mind, atm. Varks Spira (talk) 05:01, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Film

Hey, do you have any interest in being part of WikiProject Film? I noticed you've edited some film articles. Let me know, and I can template you with an invitation. :P Erik (talk | contribs) 22:57, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the offer, but I don't do much on Wikipedia aside from minor edits (though I might add a short plot summary to Ishtar, based on what Nathan Rabin wrote about it in My Year Of Flops). - Teiladnam (talk) 12:18, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:59, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Miao, India

The article Miao, India has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A rather silly quasi-dab page created by a banned editor - has no use

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.

Portland Art+Feminism Edit-a-thon: March 12, 2022

You are invited! An Art+Feminism Wikipedia edit-a-thon will be held in Portland, Oregon, on March 12, 2022. Learn more here!

Wikipedia is one of the most-visited sites on the internet—and it’s created by people who volunteer their time to write and edit pages. Learn how to edit Wikipedia and be a part of shaping our understanding of our world. In this workshop, volunteer Wikipedia editors will be on hand to train participants on how to get started editing pages and offer ideas for which pages you can pitch in to help improve. Show up at any point during the four hours to get started!

Also: Free burritos!! We will be providing vegan, vegetarian, and meat burritos from food cart Loncheria Las Mayos. Alder Commons has a large, fenced playground. Children are welcome! Some computers will be available to borrow, but if you have a laptop, please bring it to use. We will also be leading an online training for new editors at 11am-12pm PST. Please feel free to join that training if you are not able to show up IRL.

This event is part of the international month of events organized by Art+Feminism, which is building a community of activists committed to closing information gaps related to gender, feminism, and the arts, beginning with Wikipedia.

Table captions are now a requirement on Wikipedia, even if considered redundant

Hello. As I pointed out in my revert summary, per MOS:TABLECAPTION, which is part of Wikimedia's larger policy on WP:ACCESSIBILITY, captions are a requirement for all tables. It's been raised before that to sighted readers that they are redundant and repeat information from a section header, but a Wiki-wide consensus at WT:ACCESS in 2020 took this into account and still decided they are needed. Please see Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Accessibility/Archive 15#RfC on table captions. Thank you. Ss112 06:43, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
