The June 2019 Signpost is out!

Your signature

There is something in your signature that is forcing a black font in text following it. This makes large parts of talk pages almost unreadable for editors who use the green-on-black gadget. Please could you change it? Thank you. DuncanHill (talk) 15:26, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

It's the "font color="black"" that appears before the timestamp. DuncanHill (talk) 15:28, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
You need a /font color = "green" where you want the green to stop, and a /font color="orange" at the end. These need to be fixed in all your uses of the signature. DuncanHill (talk) 15:35, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
And a /font color="0C6E89" to stop that as well. DuncanHill (talk) 15:36, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:Santa hat.png

 

The file File:Santa hat.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unused, low-res, no obvious use

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:01, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
