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.

Fame!

Hi, Tannin. You might not know that your article Quokka is referenced in David Mitchell's Man Booker longlisted novel The Bone Clocks, p. 321:

"What's a quokka? Besides a hell of a Scrabble score."

"An endangered marsupial. The first Dutch who landed here thought they were giant rats, so they called the place Rat's Nest Island: Rottnest, in Dutch. Most mainland quokkas got killed by dogs and rats, but they've managed to survive here."

"If the archaeology falls through, there's always natural history."

Aoife smiles. "I Wikipediaed them five minutes ago."

Just thought you might be interested. --Antiquary (talk) 20:53, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ways to improve Fictional national animals

Hi, I'm Markdask. Tannin, thanks for creating Fictional national animals!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. This excellent article would be so much better if it had references to go with the individual animals.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Speedy deletion of Macroscelidea

If this was the first article that you 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.

The page Macroscelidea has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appeared to be a direct copy from https://veteriankey.com/insectivores-insectivora-macroscelidea-scandentia/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material 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 use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review. — Diannaa (talk) 21:30, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
