Hello! Talk to me!

A barnstar for you!

[edit]
The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
For you most recent medical edits on Wikipedia. Contributions such as these 1, 2, and 3 show that you are a notable contributor to the topic and are here to keep Wikipedia alive with current information. Thanks. Morning277 (talk) 20:20, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Meet the Press is a conservative talk show that tries to look like it covers both side. Hence the panelling "conservative propaganda" — Preceding unsigned comment added by DaddyWatkins (talkcontribs) 18:55, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia isn't the place for your opinions. Jakebarrington (talk) 18:58, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

RfA

[edit]

Hello, Jake. I undid your edits to WP:RFA because you did not follow the instructions for transcluding your nomination. If you'd like to try again, I suggest you re-read the instructions more carefully. However, you might want to consider WP:NOTNOW before you do so. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 10:51, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks. Jakebarrington (talk) 10:53, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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

No evidence of notability

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. Ryan Vesey Review me! 17:41, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Why is it purposed for deletion? Sources are reputable and accurate. Page is properly formatted. I don't understand. Please get back to me. Jakebarrington (talk) 18:08, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Jakebarrington. I noticed that a Requests for Adminship page was created under your name, either by you or by someone else, and I was wondering as to what the status of that request might be. Please note that new users are rarely successful at RfA and that the Wikipedia editing community sets an extremely high bar for potential administrator candidates. That being said, I strongly urge you to read Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship, Wikipedia:Adminship is not for new users, and Wikipedia:Not now, and ask you to reconsider whether you really do wish to go through with your candidacy; please understand that you stand very little to no chance of passing RfA at this point and that you are strongly discouraged from running for adminship. If you are still intent on running for adminship with that request and are absolutely positive that this is what you want, please transclude your RfA at WP:RFA by following the instructions at WP:RFA/N; otherwise, I'll go ahead and delete the RfA page for you in about a week or so from today. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 17:32, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Why would you issue me a warning though? I didn't break any rules by requesting adminship. Did I? Jakebarrington (talk) 23:03, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
(talk page stalker) It's not supposed to be a warning, just a notification. The big ! sign isn't very friendly though, so I've changed Template:RfA query to use File:Information.svg instead. SmartSE (talk) 11:46, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks, Jakebarrington (talk) 14:32, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You're right; my apologies if that notice seemed a little unfriendly. :) This notice is important (it would be a little surprising for you to create an RfA in good-faith and then be blown away by the comments), but it probably doesn't need that warning image. My thanks to Smartse for changing that. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 18:45, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The Anti-Vandalism + STiki Barnstar

Congratulations, Jakebarrington! You're receiving this barnstar because you recently crossed the 1,000 classification threshold using STiki. We thank you both for your contributions to Wikipedia at-large and your use of the tool. We hope you continue your ascent up the leaderboard and stay in touch at the talk page. Thank you and keep up the good work! West.andrew.g (developer) and Yaris678 (talk) 12:28, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 113th United States Congress, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Tim Ryan, Jim Jordan and David Joyce (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.

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 Showroom logic requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. reddogsix (talk) 15:50, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

2019 US Banknote Contest

[edit]
US Banknote Contest
November-December 2019

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.


If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here
