Renaming GLAM/JHU page=

Hi there! I see you were the primary editor of the GLAM/JHU page for the 2012 project between Hopkins and the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya. I am about to launch a GLAM project page that will encompass all Johns Hopkins Wikipedia projects--editathons, class projects, article assessment, etc. Would you consider allowing us to use the GLAM/JHU page for this and moving your existing content there to a "Projects" tab within the bigger site I am making, or possibly turning it into a case study similar to https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Case_studies/Walters_Art_Museum? I'm happy to see that Hopkins has already explored Wikipedia through your project! Thanks, Flappable (talk) 22:15, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia and Society Comm535 Project

Hello Kippelboy! I got your name from my professor Andrew Lih. I am currently working on my final project for my Wikipedia class and could use your expertise. I am comparing Spanish Wikipedia and English Wikipedia to see if there is any difference between how certain topics are covered depending on the region and its culture. Also I would like to ask a user like you who works on both Wikipedia to help me understand these differences (if they exist) and why do you think they happen. My most important question has to be: why do you think that English Wikipedia has over 4 million articles while Spanish Wikipedia only has over 1 million even if the regions that Spanish Wikipedia services are more than that of English Wikipedia? I might have more questions further along the project and will keep posting them here so I can get your professional opinion. Thank you very much for your help,

Disambiguation link notification for May 19

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Centre de Documentació i Museu de les Arts Escèniques, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Magic (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Gavanzo

Gavanzo (talk · contribs) is basically a single-purpose account set up to edit war over the Spanish/Catalan controversy on the side of the Spanish. Your edit to Joan Miro is of no avail, he will fight you over it tooth and nail. Sorry but he appears to have watchlisted several high-profile Catalan bios and pops up to revert anyone who disagrees with him. Elizium23 (talk) 04:51, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Controversy on the side of Spanish? I have in a watchlist some articles that are usually not following the Wikipedia standards widely discussed. Evidence: Wikipedia:NCGN#Multiple_local_names and Wikipedia_talk:Article_titles/Archive_31#Spanish.2FCatalan_double_names. Fight against you? I am using in Antoni_Gaudí the formula that you agreed with someone else in Talk:Salvador_Dalí#Born_in_Catalonia ! . And my last edit in Joan Miró was a revertion from this one http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Joan_Miró&diff=560589481&oldid=557706857 , an edit with no justification, and no comments. So, Elizium23 (talk · contribs), what is your accusation? What am i doing wrong? Gavanzo (talk) 07:45, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up, I just took the "March" header out as of now to make it look cleaner, not a problem for it returning.

Speedy deletion nomination of Alfons Borrell i Palazón

Hello Kippelboy,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Alfons Borrell i Palazón for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. valereee (talk) 20:34, 5 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the speedy of course; the editor involved needs some counseling. DGG ( talk ) 20:37, 5 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Yves Bélorgey

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

No evidence of notability.

While all constructive 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.

Thanks for reaching out to that teacher in Barcelona, as described on the education board. It always is stressful to see that a teacher is trying hard to have a class contribute, but for people at that board to be powerless to offer them support. Anything that you can say or do is a help. If you have something to share later, please report back with an update. If the class needs help from the education program in English them have the professor or class post to the board.

Speedy deletion nomination of TERMCAT

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 TERMCAT requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.termcat.cat/en. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Hi Kippelboy, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Matthias Müller (filmmaker), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page CCCB. 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.

Multilingual pageviews

A while back you asked me about adding a multilingual option to Pageviews Analysis. Well, I've got a brand new tool that meets this need up and running at toollabs:langviews. Let me know what you think! It's sort of beta-ish; sometimes queries for certain projects will fail. I'm working to figure that out, but hoping people will enjoy what I've got so far. Ping me back or write on my talk page if you've got any feedback, would love to hear it. Best — MusikAnimal ^talk 16:29, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Peace Treaties in Art 30 x 30 Challenge

Hi Kippelboy! How are you? Just a quick observation, for all your impetus you are laaagging behind in the Peace_Treaties_in_Art_30_x_30_Challenge at this moment, I am concerned ;) Salut! Iñaki LL (talk) 07:13, 30 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Again, a question (help)

Hola Kippelboy, ¿cómo va? It is a shame we could not count on your expertise on the matter for the Peace Treaties in Art Challenge:), no worries! I was wondering, here I will need your help, I have the badge on the right, but does not show correctly, do you have any knowledge by chance how that can be fixed? (This one is a png, not svg) Any hints appreciated, salut! Iñaki LL (talk) 09:12, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Digital Anthropology research

Hello Kippelboy, My name is Stephanie Barker and I am a student at the University of Colorado Boulder. I am currently enrolled in a Digital Anthropology class, which attempts to answer how the digital world affects culture and how culture affects the digital world. For my final project I am doing an ethnography on women Wikipedia users and as a member of the WikiProject Women page I was hoping I could ask you some questions about your experiences editing Wikipedia pages. 1. Have you ever been locked into an intense editing war? If yes, please explain the situation to me. 2. How did you become interested in editing Wikipedia pages and did you have any initial fears/hesitations when you started editing pages? 3. Have you ever been a victim of a mass deletion or other vandalism on Wikipedia? If yes, please explain the situation to me. 4. How would you describe your gender? 5. Is there anything else you would like to share with me about your experiences as a Wikipedia editor? I would like you to know that I am only sharing my research with my professor and the other students in my class. If you would like me to send you a copy of my final project, I would be more than happy to! Sincerely, Stelba90 (talk) 01:06, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge

Hi there. I've started a new initiative, the Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. It's a long term goal to bring about 10,000 article improvements to the UK and Ireland. Through two contests involving just six or seven weeks of editing so far we've produced over 1500 improvements. Long term if we have more people chipping it and adding articles they've edited independently as well from all areas of the UK then reaching that target is all possible. I think it would be an amazing achievement to see 10,000 article improvements by editors chipping in. If you support this and think you might want to contribute towards this long term please sign up in the Contributors section. No obligations, just post work on anything you feel like whenever you want, though try to avoid basic stubs if possible as we're trying to reduce the overall stub count and improve general comprehension and quality. Thanks.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:43, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! Wikipedia Asian Month is about to start. Here is some information about participating in the event:

Please submit your articles via this tool. Click 'log in' at the top-right and OAuth will take care the rest. You can also change the interface language at the top-right.
Once you submit an article, the tool will add a template to the article and mark it as needing review by an organizer. You can check your progress using the tool, which includes how many accepted articles you have.
Participants who achieve 4 accepted articles will receive a Wikipedia Asian Month postcard. You will receive another special postcard if you achieve 15 accepted articles. The Wikipedian with the highest number of accepted articles on the English Wikipedia will be honored as a "Wikipedia Asian Ambassador", and will receive a signed certificate and additional postcard.

Wikimedian in Residence BoF at Wikimania 2017

Hello!

My name is David Alves (User:Horadrim~usurped), and I'm an Wikipedian in Residence at RIDC NeuroMat (User:Horadrim). I've reach your contact through the Wikimedian in residence page in Outreach. As you may know, Wikimania 2017 is coming! I am here because, as a fellow WiR, I believe this would be a great opportunity for us to share experiences, discuss difficulties and exchange solutions, creating a community among us capable of supporting in other projects that would benefit from residents. In that sense, I have submitted a proposal of a Birds of a Feather activity to Wikimania that you can check out here. I hope to count with your support in this project and would like to invite you to join us if you participate in Wikimania. In case of any doubts, please feel free to contact me, either in my talk pages or by e-mail at david.alvesoutlook.com.

Thank you very much! ‎Horadrim~usurped (talk) 00:33, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
