Upper Canada politician stubs

Hi, I've gone through the list of Ontario MPP stubs, and I've moved about a hundred to the Canadian politician stub category. Could you create the specific category for Upper Canada politicians? (Almost all of the ones I moved were Upper Canada. There were only a few that were Province of Canada politicians. I've changed them as well, but they wouldn't warrant a specific category.) Thanks for your help, and for teaching me about stub structure! Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 03:07, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikilink tagging

Hello, when you are going through your stubs, please be judicious as far as tagging articles as being underlinked. In some cases, there is no justification for more wikilinks. My goal is to reduce the number of articles that have that tag by adding wikilinks when necessary. Thank you for listening. Rogermx (talk) 19:38, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The only time I might nark an article as underlinked is when using AWB, as I am still picking up on the changes here in the last 5 years I tend to rely on AWB making the correct automatic adjustments, I will however attempt to spot any incorrectly tagged articles. Waacstats (talk) 20:47, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Hello, you have marked dozens of small beetle stub articles with the Wikilinks tag despite their being one-sentence stubs. I doubt that the vast majority of them deserve this tag. Again, this is making more work for those of us trying to reduce the number of articles with this tag. Rogermx (talk) 16:23, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adding Wikilinks tags

Hello, could you please be judicious about adding Wikilink tags to very short stub articles? Two of the Scottish footballer articles do not have need for anymore wikilinks. Some of us are trying to reduce the backlog of these tagged articles. Thank you for your help. Rogermx (talk) 22:22, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Short Description and AWB

Hi: I noticed that some of your recent edits using AWB (e.g. Peter Murdoch) have the unfortunate side-effect of moving Short Description below hatnotes, in violation of MOS:ORDER. This is an AWB genfix bug, which was corrected last November soon after the 6.1.0.1 release, but not yet released as an official binary. It's annoying to fix these manually, and I have built a binary from the latest official sources if you're interested. See Wikipedia talk:AutoWikiBrowser.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Cross River State geography stubs

A tag has been placed on Category:Cross River State geography stubs requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz ^{Read!

Niall Dunne's Wikipedia page - new section

Hi,

My name is Sophie and I am very new to being a Wikipedia user editing and writing articles. I am contacting you because I saw that you had made changes to Niall Dunne's Wikipedia page a couple years ago. I was hoping I could get your help to create a new section on his page. As I am currently working at Polymateria, the company at which Niall is CEO I am unable to update his page due to WP:COI guidelines but am wondering whether you might be happy to help me add a section to his page?

If you are happy to help me I can send you the text that I would like to update the page with.

Again, as said I am very new to this side of Wikipedia so please do let me know if there is another way I should be trying to make these changes.

Thank you and hope to speak soon, Sophie SophieStromback (talk) 17:19, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

How do you do it??

Hi Waacstats! I'm kind of in awe of the speed and efficiency of your stub sorting - I was wondering whether you have particular tools or methods that you use. I have a Mac, so AWB is not available to me. I have just recently started using Cat-A-Lot and a stub sorting script for simple stub type changes. Do you have any recommendations that might save my fingers some labor?? Cheers! Her Pegship (?) 00:22, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Wilhelminakerk

The article Wilhelminakerk has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Completely unsourced article on a building with no actual assertion of notability. Searches for sources mostly turned up false positives (other, unrelated churches with the same name), and the few I could find that may have been on this building were extremely brief mentions. Without any significant coverage in reliable sources, it fails the WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Opera and Vivaldi

Hello, Waacstats. I noticed your Opera userbox, and I'm an Opera user from way back, before anybody ever heard of it, from the time when I used to watch ECMA performance stats, and Opera regularly beat everybody hands down. Anyway, I still like and appreciate Opera (still have Opera mini on my iPhone), but I've switched over from Opera to Vivaldi for 90% of my browsing, and nearly 100% of my Wikipedia edits. The tab handling is superior to Opera (and far superior to everybody else), although I think Opera has noticed, and is is trying to catch up. In any case, you owe it to yourself to at least try Vivaldi (Chromium basd). It's awfully good, and it's hard to switch back. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 11:19, 16 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
