I just wanted to make you aware of this discussion I started at Winter storm naming. I have no intentions of making any changes to the article myself, but was just hoping to get input from editors previously involved in the article (or recently-closed AfD) in an effort to improve the article and clarify its purpose. I will leave any changes to the consensus of other editors who decide what's best. Your participation would be welcome, regardless of your views on the issue. Thank you. 76.189.111.199 (talk) 22:14, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
Hello AHeneen,
How are you doing? I am editing the Tourism in Egypt page [[1]]. I am looking forward to work with you, so that we can helpfully expand it.
Thanks,

Hi. I am not an admin and this is just a friendly comment to a fellow editor. You obviously know it's ok to add public domain text verbatim to an article, but you might not realize that you need to attribute the text to the source to avoid any appearance of plagarism. The guideline is that there needs to be a visible attribution in either the text or the reference section, so your comment in the html just proves good intentions. I replaced your citation with ((USGS)), one of the many attribution templates available for this sort of thing. Regards, Celestra (talk) 00:12, 25 September 2013 (UTC)
On 26 February 2014, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Ethiopian Airlines Flight 702 hijacking, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Ethiopian Airlines Flight 702 was hijacked by the co-pilot? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it may be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

You changed the Emirates delivery numbers in List of Airbus A380 orders and deliveries. This is not a small job and cannot be done in isolation, the tables now do not sum, and they disagree with each other. These tables, or templates, are also included in other related pages and causes discrepancies on those pages including rendering some of the text in those pages incorrect. The tables also do not match the references cited. Changing this little number is a very big job. In the past it was chaos because people updated the tables piecemeal in response to press releases and other sources, consequently, the consensus arose to use ONLY the official Airbus O&D, this pretty much fixed the numbers churn. This comes out monthly so we just need to wait. I would recommend that the change be reverted. Ex nihil (talk) 09:45, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
There is some discrepency in the list, there are three Dutch people with dual citizenship one each from Israel, USA and Belgium, two Britons one each from South Africa and New Zealand, so shouldnt tehe dual citizen section for all these countries includ these numbers? inspector (talk) 15:52, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
I wanted to let you know that I undid your edit [2]. The table format you modified is one of the two accepted by consensus, both of them included at WP:AIRLINE-DEST-LIST.

That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. 64 competitors made it into this round, and are now broken into eight groups of eight. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups. Round 1 saw some interesting work on some very important articles, with the round leader Freikorp (submissions) owing most of his 622 points scored to a Featured Article on the 2001 film Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within which qualified for a times-two multiplier. This is a higher score than in previous years, as Godot13 (submissions) had 500 points in 2014 at the end of round 1, and our very own judge, Sturmvogel_66 (submissions) led round 1 with 601 points in 2013.
In addition to Freikorp's work, some other important articles and pictures were improved during round one, here's a snapshot of a few of them:

Dude's continuing to be disruptive. Now that it's evident he "lost" on the sortable table at Los Angeles City Attorney, he's gone back to edit-warring on Template:LosAngelesCityAttorneys. I've explained what I did there numerous times, and yet his most recent comment at Template talk:LosAngelesCityAttorneys seems to act like I did it BOLDly for no apparent reason. Could you explain to him what's going on? Cuz I'm at the end of my tether with him right now. It seems like he refuses to stop fighting until he "gets" something, regardless of how many people disagree with him or how off-base his ideas are. pbp 14:44, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Joint Agency Coordination Centre, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Interpretation. 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.

Hello, AHeneen. I wanted you to be among the first to know that I have changed my username to User:BeenAroundAWhile. That’s because I have, well, been around a while — 83 years to be exact, on April 8.
First, I want to apologize if I have upset you with some of my recent edits. Obviously I don’t mean anything personal by my edits, and I make them only because I think they will be good for the encyclopedia.
But I did want to introduce myself. For a good many years I have specialized in creating or editing Wikipedia articles about Los Angeles — its neighborhoods, its history, its public servants — oh, all that stuff. I have either originated or contributed to most of the articles on Los Angeles City Council members and Los Angeles city attorneys, dating back to 1853. I’ve been able to use my L.A. Public Library card to good advantage over the Internet, even though I don’t live in L.A. any more. I’m glad you share my interest in history.
Also I notice your interest in international relations. That was my field when I was at UCLA, although I graduated from UC Riverside with a major in government. I worked for two years in Geneva, with the International Labor Organization. Interesting life, but I returned to UCLA to get an MA in journalism.
I suppose I am addicted to Wikipedia. As a former newspaper reporter and editor, and a journalism professor of a quarter century specializing in writing and editing, I can’t keep away from hammering away at a keyboard in a manic attempt to edit and to create. I have tried to take breaks, but it is an impossibility. Not only do I have my watch list of favorites, but I also hover like a vulture over the Recent Changes page and pounce on any submissions that are found wanting. Oh, well.
As you know, I’ve taken a break from our discussion about improving the templates associated with Los Angeles City Attorney, but I plan to return to it after my week is up. I hope that our chats over there will be friendly.
Sincerely, BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 19:11, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
On 23 March 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Joint Agency Coordination Centre, which you recently created or substantially expanded.

Hi, I'm glad you've joined the DYK reviewing team! I'd like to mention that just because an article passed GA doesn't mean it's an automatic yes for DYK.

The second round one has all wrapped up, and round three has now begun! Congratulations to the 34 contestants who have made it through, but well done and thank you to all contestants who took part in our second round. Leading the way overall was Cas Liber (submissions) in Group B with a total of 777 points for a variety of contributions including Good Articles on Corona Borealis and Microscopium - both of which received the maximum bonus.
Special credit must be given to a number of high importance articles improved during the second round.
The points varied across groups, with the lowest score required to gain automatic qualification was 68 in Group A - meanwhile the second place score in Group H was 404, which would have been high enough to win all but one of the other Groups! As well as the top two of each group automatically going through to the third round, a minimum score of 55 was required for a wildcard competitor to go through. We had a three-way tie at 55 points and all three have qualified for the next round, in the spirit of fairness. The third round ends on June 28, with the top two in each group progressing automatically while the remaining 16 highest scorers across all four groups go through as wildcards. Good luck to all competitors for the third round! Figureskatingfan (talk · contribs · email), Miyagawa (talk · contribs · email) and Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email) 16:58, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi AHeneen, a new arbcom case has been opened: Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Kww and The Rambling Man. Reading the discussion, there seems to be a lot about Kww's behauvior but not so much about TRM. I remember there was an excellent ANI thread about TRM's rude behauvior at ITN/C. I found it: Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive852#Inappropriate_conduct_by_administrator_User:The_Rambling_Man and it seems you initiated the thread.
I think it would be a good idea if you posted those diffs at the ArbCom evidence section (max 500 words and 50 diffs), it would be really of value I think. What do you say? --Pudeo' 18:22, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi AHeneen,
First of all, sorry for my bad english. I wanted to reply to your post on the french Bistro. Your informations are correct, some canton have been deleted and other have changed. Living in elsass, I have in my Watchlist many cities in Bas-Rhin and Haut-Rhin. The fact is that many cities (also very small cities) are up-to-date, but we are not sure that it's the case of all cities. If you want, I can spend some time tomorow to check it.
Concerning the future new region, I don't know what is the policy on wikidata, but for your information, on frwiki it has been decided that we won't change the regions name until the 1st January, and then at this date a bot will replace all in one hit.

The finals for the 2015 Wikicup has now begun! Congrats to the 8 contestants who have survived to the finals, and well done and thanks to everyone who took part in rounds 3 and 4.
In round 3, we had a three-way tie for qualification among the wildcard contestants, so we had 34 competitors. The leader was by far Casliber (submissions) in Group B, who earned 1496 points. Although 913 of these points were bonus points, he submitted 15 articles in the DYK category. Second place overall was Coemgenus (submissions) at 864 points, who although submitted just 2 FAs for 400 points, earned double that amount for those articles in bonus points. Everyone who moved forward to Round 4 earned at least 100 points.
The scores required to move onto the semifinals were impressive; the lowest scorer to move onto the finals was 407, making this year's Wikicup as competitive as it's always been. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:
The intense competition between RO and Calvin999 will continue into the finals. They're both eligible for the Newcomers Trophy, given for the first time in the Wikicup; whoever makes the most points will win it.
Good luck to the finalists; the judges are sure that the competition will be fierce!

The article Analysis of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 satellite communications you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Analysis of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 satellite communications for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know.

Greetings AHeneen,
Thank you for your help with my edits to the Wikipedia article United States Ambassador to Somalia. My original confusion arose because some of the media articles, which I used as sources and which you redacted, erroneously refer to McAnulty as "U.S. Ambassador to Somalia". I was of the opinion that by the time of my last edits, I had clarified that McAnulty is an envoy in charge of a mission or what used to be called a legation. Anyway, thank you for your knowledge and help. Albiet (talk) 17:00, 19 September 2015 (UTC) |
A user continues to remove Merida as a future destination from the list since the airline is starting the route on March 3, 2016. Can you take a look? Thanks! If the destinations do not include future route, then SYD should not be added until is served. 97.85.113.113 (talk) 16:32, 2 October 2015 (UTC)
