Good Article Review; Jeri's Template edit

DO NOT TOUCH. PLEASE.

The "-" indicates that something needs fixing, the "=" indicates that it is of decent quality, and the "+" indicates that it is of great quality, but mind you, this doesn't mean it is perfect. If there is a "~" next to it, that means it is borderline with the next rating. "=~" would be borderline "+" and "=" for example.

Agricultural extension edit

I believe I addressed every issue in agricultural extension that you gave a "-". Other than that you suggested one section should be better referenced. The user who was the largest contributor to this page has agreed to do this, but it will not happen in the seven day hold period for GA review. If you get a chance, please have a look and see if you are comforable promoting the article now. ike9898 22:40, 18 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

As of this moment, I cannot promote the article to GA status, as for I am required to wait for one more day before this article can be taken off hold. Since everything that I marked as "-" otherwise was dealt with, and there is no way to fix this by the time alloted, I see no reason not to promote it. If it was something more serious, I would have no choice, but since this is a minor and a "just to make sure" thing, I see no reason not to make it a good article.

I doesn't really matter to me, but I think you're misunderstanding the "on hold" rules. I think the intention of the rule is that if you place an article on hold, you have to give the nominator (or other editors) at least two days to address critisisms before failing the article. I don't think the two day minimum applies to promoting the article. What purpose would that serve? But seriously, I don't care, and wouldn't get in an argument over this.

I award a barnstar on your user page edit

This is for making Snorunt a GA. Vikrant Phadkay 15:42, 16 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Well, thanks. That was quite unexpected, but I'm flattered. Jerichi~Profile~Talk~ 00:54, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

WP:POKE is doing some housecleaning edit

This notice is to inform you that because many people have added their names to Wikipedia:WikiProject Pokémon#Participants but do not seem to be active, all names are being deleted in an effort to find out who is still truly interested in the project. All you have to do is re-add your name if you'd still like to be considered a member of WP:POKE. Any questions, you can contact me on my talk page. -ΖαππερΝαππερ BabelAlexandria 17:41, 22 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (Image:SnoruntTGCrubysapphire.jpg) edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:SnoruntTGCrubysapphire.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 02:10, 7 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Featured sounds edit

I noticed that you have participated in Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates in the past. There are now two candidates and the project appears to be abandoned. If you could look at the candidates and vote it would be appreciated. Zginder (talk) (Contrib) 00:42, 8 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia:WikiProject Pokémon edit

The list of participants of the Pokémon WikiProject is quite sizable, however, there is no way to determine which of whom are active contributors to that project. All participants in the list have been moved to Inactive. If you consider yourself to be an active member of the Pokémon WikiProject, please go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Pokémon#Participants and move your username to the Active section. Thank you.

Motto of the day edit

Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 01:51, 4 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014 edit

Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.

Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

This message has been sent by pjoef on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).

Disambiguation link notification for April 11 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Atlas (video game), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page PC. 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.
