Thank you very much for the encouragement and additional information about helpful resources! I look forward to learning more and continuing to contribute to Wikipedia, and I greatly appreciate your assistance. Beccaynr (talk) 19:03, 20 October 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for your addition of Noam Chomsky's name, didn't know he had written an introduction and supported the defendants. Nice work. I created the template, and was both active in the anti-war movement and was a journalist at the trial. Actually was in the room with just a few people when the eight were formally indicted and fingerprinted. It was an interesting time, and the people who stood up against the Vietnam War turned out, in the course of history, to be correct (even Robert McNamara agreed). Thanks, and good to meet you.

Groucho Marx on the template? I couldn't find any mention of the Chicago 7 in his article. I see you added a source to the Weiner page that Marx was asked to testify and declined, probably not enough to list him as a supporter. And hello again, I hope all has been well.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Conspiracy: The Trial of the Chicago 8, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Barry Miller. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hello. Why I certainly understand that critic's petspective (although I don't agree with it at all as Hampton was assasinated because of his politics and because the police felt threatened by him and Taylor was murdered because of sloppy trigger happy policing), We can't have every individual opinion, or even one because it opens that door, about connections in the film that aren't part of the movie.

Hi, I saw the note on your userpage about unsuccessfuly trying to insert a picture of a wombat, so I've been bold and done this for you – I hope you like it (if you don't, you can of course just undo the edit. You can change the size by modifying the middle parameter, e.g. by setting it to 500px if you want the image to be a little smaller. Blablubbs (talk • contribs) 22:00, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
Hello. I just wanted to let you know I really appreciate the Barnstar. It means a lot and I'm happy that you have felt encouraged by me. Keep up the good work! Samurai Kung fu Cowboy (talk) 16:57, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Chicago Seven. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 22:07, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
The Editor's Barnstar | |
For your full and detailed work in revamping and improving the Chicago Seven page Mayor Daley and the gang over at the first precinct would give you an in-house going over and a few light taps on the head to "teach ya the rules". Nice work, a much improved article, and what happens when a good editor steps up. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:00, 12 December 2020 (UTC) |
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Jane Musoke-Nteyafas, to which you have significantly contributed, is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or if it should be deleted.
The discussion will take place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jane Musoke-Nteyafas (3rd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

I just wanted to apologize that I didn't revert the re-addition of the MOS:DEADNAME at Mika Tosca. In the cloud of edits, I didn't notice that it had been put back! While I do think that there are reasonable arguments both ways, it should without a doubt stay out of the article until there's consensus (and probably it would be wise to wait on the AfD). Russ Woodroofe (talk) 19:14, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
Hello, Beccaynr!
Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Hatchens (talk) 06:47, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello User:Beccaynr, thank you for the useful additions you made to the article Catherine D. Wood. I created a article about her firm Ark Invest a few days ago. Unfortunately, it is now in the deletion discussion. I find this unjustified because this article clearly proves relevance with references to Bloomberg, CNBC etc.. I would be happy if you would support the retention of this article under Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ark Invest. Many thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Afus199620 (talk) 13:12, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for your work on Gorman and "The Hill We Climb". I've credited you on Template:Did you know nominations/The Hill We Climb. Cheers, Eddie891 Talk Work 18:45, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:Book Cover - Conspiracy To Riot, The Life and Times of One of The Chicago 7 by Lee Weiner.jpeg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

On 11 February 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article The Hill We Climb, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that after Amanda Gorman recited the poem "The Hill We Climb" at the inauguration of US president Joe Biden, she gained Twitter followers at a faster rate than the president? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/The Hill We Climb. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, The Hill We Climb), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (ie, 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

I just saw Gabrielle Diana was kept after the AfD. Good job on working on that article and contributing to getting it kept. HEY definitely applied! Keep up the good work - ideally we’ll cross paths again and work on another article together! —Kbabej (talk) 03:27, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
