Clash of views on Book articles edit

Hi! Maybe you can help—somehow? I have been trying to write text for 2 books: The Internet Galaxy and Homo Ludens. I adopted a plan, discussed it on the talk page, said what I intended to do and so on... Suddenly, I see that weeks of work are undone by some Administrator/Editor who does not contribute to the Talk page and does not sign. I have reverted both edits and fully expect conflict. It is not the treatment I expect. --Михал Орела (talk) 14:25, 16 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Contest proposal edit

A proposal has been posted for a contest between all 200 country WikiProjects. We need to know how this contest should be run, and what problems to look out for. And we're looking for judges, coordinators, ideas, and feedback.

(And we have some really cool awards for the contest).

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:52, 23 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

January 2016 edit

Information icon Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Kitten Tracks, from its old location at User:MantaRay/articlebucket. This is because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Ricky81682 (talk) 08:17, 1 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Draft:Kitten Tracks concern edit

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Kitten Tracks, a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:39, 3 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:Kitten Tracks edit

Hello, MantaRay. It has been over six months since you last edited your Articles for Creation draft article submission, "Kitten Tracks".

In accordance with our policy that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. —MRD2014 T C 14:23, 1 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
