Tokyo Rose

There is a section in the article Tokyo Rose that refers to Walter Kraner. That section's title says "Tokyo Rose", when it should state "Tokyo Mose", as that was what he was called. I attempted to fix that, but you removed my edit. I think that section's title/header should be corrected, as the error makes makes the article confusing, and I believe that you made a mistake in reverting my edit. As you said to contact you, I am letting you know, and I hope you will fix this soon. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CamoPants (talkcontribs) 08:47, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

April Hickox

Hello,

We are working on this Wikipedia page as a group of users for a academic assignment. A lot of my edits were reworking my colleagues posts.

What can I do to make this work for us? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arthistory01 (talkcontribs) 18:17, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Massacre of the Latins

Not sure what happened there. I merely updated the wikilink to a more specific and more helpful article. Please review edits more carefully before reverting. Thanks. 72.201.104.140 (talk) 00:15, 6 April 2017 (UTC)

Deletion sorting

Some, but not all, Canadian provinces already have their own subpages of the Canadian page for deletion sorting. There's no need for a page which is already delsorted as Ontario to also be on the main Canada page in addition to that — it should just be on the province page alone. Thanks.

4th GA Cup - Wrap Up

WikiProject Good Articles's 2016 GA Cup - Wrap Up

Hello, GA Cup competitors!

Saturday, April 1 concluded the 2016-2017 GA Cup. 64 reviews were completed by our finalists. Although the backlog increased by 42 over the reviewing period instead of declining, the increase suggests that the contest is encouraging editors to nominate articles for review.

Congratulations to Shearonink, who is the winner of the Cup, finishing with 672 points! Once again, just as in last round, this is more than the point totals for all the other competitors combined! It was a close race for second place between Krishna Chaitanya Velaga, who achieved 164 points, and Sturmvogel_66, who earned 150. Though Sturmvogel_66 reviewed one more article than Krishna Chaitanya Velaga, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga managed to earn 14 points more due to reviewing older articles. Our two wildcard competitors, Kees08 and Chris troutman, came in fourth and fifth, respectively.

There were some bumps in the competition this time: The sign-up deadline and the first round were both extended due to fewer competitors signing up then was planned for. And there were delays in tallying points and getting out the newsletter. The judges apologize for this latter difficulty. Lastly, mid-way through the competition we bid farewell to Zwerg Nase, who stepped down from their position as judge due to other commitments. Information about the Final can be found here.

Thank you to all of our competitors, and congrats to our winners!

Cheers from Figureskatingfan, 3family6, Jaguar, and MrWooHoo.

FYI: Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Americas

Hello. I noticed that you have been deletion sorting American topics in the Americas category. That category has been defunct since 2007 and selecting it under assisted delsort does nothing. The working category is "United States of America." Keying in "sta" in assisted delsort, brings it up pretty fast. Thank you for your help at AfD. • Gene93k (talk) 03:45, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it is made for a fraternity that has been running for 17 years. Multiple websites showing brothers are www.betakappagamma.org and bkgbaylor.org . I have been working on the website for the past hour and would be very disappointed if my efforts were in vain. The fraternity has grown immensely since 2012 and even the content on the page has resembled that of any other fraternity on Wikipedia. In terms of national presence, if you look on school websites like Baylor, UT Austin or LSU, you will find Beta Kappa Gamma's influence on the community. In terms of chapter numbers, there are multiple fraternities and sororities that have less than 7 and ones that only have 1 chapter(local fraternities).

These are sources that show that it is an established official organization in the United States and that it is a fraternity:

https://www.gofundme.com/BetaKappaGamma

In addition to all these websites, Relay for life is the biggest cancer research event in America. Beta Kappa Gamma was the GOLD sponsor of Relay for life donating thousands of dollars. Here it is on their website. http://main.acsevents.org/site/TR?fr_id=82902&pg=informational&sid=209324


To show the publicity of the organization and both it's service and social impacts:

Not only was there local coverage, there was also outside local coverage by cities outside of the fraternity's main residence/university.

These are additional sources for Beta Kappa Gamma in Houston and nationally

Disambiguation link notification for April 12

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Boxer (2017 film), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Romantic. 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.
