Welcome to the 2014 WikiCup!
Hello EuroCarGT, and welcome to the 2014 WikiCup! Your submission page can be found here. The competition will begin at midnight tonight (UTC). There have been a few small changes from last year; the rules can be read in full at Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring, and the page also includes a summary of changes. One important rule to remember is that only content on which you have completed significant work, and nominated, in 2014 is eligible for points in the competition- the judges will be checking! As ever, this year's competition includes some younger editors. If you are a younger editor, you are certainly welcome, but we have written an advice page at Wikipedia:WikiCup/Advice for younger editors for you. Please do take a look. Any questions should be directed to one of the judges, or left on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup. Signups will close at the end of January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will make it to round 2. Good luck!

- Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! You did nothing wrong, I just placed a file template on your media so it wouldn't be copied to Commons. ///EuroCarGT 00:49, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

File:Omosexy Jalade.jpg
Hi. You tagged File:Omosexy Jalade.jpg for renaming. I moved it to Commons instead (under the new name), but now see that it's apparently a copyvio (commons:File:Omotola Jalade Ekeinde.jpg), so have tagged it as such there. Does that sound OK? Cheers. -- Trevj (talk · contribs) 11:41, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
- Sounds good at Commons! ///EuroCarGT 15:17, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
- OK. -- Trevj (talk · contribs) 10:55, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

I consulted on IRC and blocked for a few days, noting that you requested it and asking the user that if it is in error, to please leave a message on a talk page. WhisperToMe (talk) 06:17, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

File mover
Hi EuroCarGT, I've reviewed your recent file moving work and am satisfied with what you've done. In addition, I pinged Graeme Bartlett, who, as you know, was the admin who declined you before, and they have no objection to you having the userright. As such, I've granted you file mover. That being said, I would advise caution and if you think a file should be moved but want a second opinion, use {{rename media}} or, if you wish, contact me or another admin personally. Good luck. :) Acalamari 23:36, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
- Alrighty then! Will take caution, also will contact you via talk page for additional help. Thanks ///EuroCarGT 00:20, 11 January 2014 (UTC)
January 2014
Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s and 1 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
- List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
- The '''Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2''' {stylized as Galaxy NotePRO 12.2) is an [[Android (operating system)|Android]]-based [[tablet computer]] designed and manufactured

Category:Indian actress stubs
Hi there. Just to let you know, stub categories are supposed to be proposed and accepted through a separate procedure than AfC. So you shouldn't have accepted the stub category request at WP:AFC/C. I've tagged the category with housekeeping G6, and I will notify the proposer of the category of the correct procedure. Cheers, Michaelzeng7 (talk) 20:29, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
- @Michaelzeng7: Alrighty, thanks for notifying me! Will know in the future. Best, ///EuroCarGT 21:10, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi there. I appreciate your enthusiasm, but with only 51 edits to mainspace yourself, I do not think you are adequately qualified to be making nao on what is, strictly speaking, an admin area. You can rest assured that admins do all the necessary research before according the use of additional tools, and nao (from anyone) are rarely useful. Regards, Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:18, 21 January 2014 (UTC)
- @Kudpung: Okay then. I've also seen the discussion at WP:PERM/AP, I understand that, I'm just making a comment. Also, not sure what you mean with 51 edits to mainspace? Cheers, --///EuroCarGT 01:21, 21 January 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited MasterChef Canada, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page CTV (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.

Hi,
I have quoted several noted Indian resources that have talked about Sheenlac paints. These sources are big names with repute in India. So I see no point in claim of the references that have been given. Please have a re-look and do the needful.

Elephants for Peace
Thank you for taking the time to review the "Elephants for Peace" article.
"This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies."
I have, at least, 29 verifiable independent, reliable, published sources linked to the article. Maybe they're the wrong kind of articles? Could you tell me what I would need? This is my first submission! :-)
Thank you for your help. Natacha --RomaNatacha (talk) 12:14, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
