Welcome to GentlemanGhost's talk page. I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your talk page (or the article's talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or let me know where specifically you'd prefer the reply. |

Thank you very much! For me, Wikipedia is what happens when you're supposed to be doing other things. --GentlemanGhost (converse) 20:41, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
Hi GentlemanGhost,
I frequent a few pages, update, do that sort of thing for music profiles, from MIA to U2 and a few producers. Noticed that the Griffin Guess user page is constantly vandalized by the same non contributor user IP address. Its obvious its someone who is constantly vandalizing the account to maliciously target Mr. Guess and any functioning facts of his bio. Since I'm not as savvy as you to file a formal complaint to block this person(s). Please let me know if you by chance would kindly find the time to do so. I've reset the page officially today -- many thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kelseykukui (talk • contribs) 19:53, 16 May 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BeenAroundAWhile. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Leeann Tweeden, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Anybody's Facebook page (even mine) is not a Reliable source.

After a successful first iteration of the “Months of African Cinema” last year, we are happy to announce that it will be happening again this year, starting from October 1! In the 2018 edition of the contest, about 600 Wikipedia articles were created in at least 8 languages. There were also contributions to Wikidata and Wikimedia commons, which brought the total number of wikimedia pages created during the contest to over 1,000.

Hey just a heads up, if you see a huge pile of orphans from any one particular Russian federal subject (Altai Krai or Bashkortostan are frequent flyers), don't worry about them - I have a script that sorts the category by district and outputs it as a formatted list to be pasted right into the article. It's less of a problem when you're just adding a couple, but when you get huge categories like Bashkortostan, trying to add them by hand is kind of a waste of time. I'm going through bit by bit and updating them when I can; I know I'm a little behind right now but I am going to get them done this week. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 00:16, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.)

US Banknote Contest | ||
---|---|---|
November-December 2019 | ||
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here |

Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

New Updates & Messages For Active Participants in the Marvel Comics work group
Greetings to you all & a great weekend. I took the iniative to send this mass message to you all because I observed from the article on Elders of the Universe that certain key members of the Elders of the Universe have no article of theirs and most glaring is that of Gilpertpedon/The Runner. I believe subject has become notable enough for a stand alone article & it would be a great idea for someone in possession of a picture of the runner which is their own work (as to avoid image copyright violations) to begin the article. Then the rest of us contribute to the article’s development.Celestina007 (talk) 14:38, 25 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi there! I have recently made a request for an assessment of the article Puppetry of the Penis on WikiProject Theatre. I have been editing this article for over a month, adding almost 3000 words, new sections, an infobox, media and more references for verifiability. I noticed you were a very active (and helpful) editor of WikiProject Theatre, and was wondering if you had the time if you could have a look at the article and provide me any feedback. Any general feedback would be much appreciated and possibly an assessment of the article for importance and quality. Thank you very much. Rubyredgirl (talk) 10:16, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed you have been removing "duplicate" WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography banners. Unfortunately, they are not. There is a bot currently processing the banners that say "WikiProject Organized Crime" and "WikiProject Crime", etc, and turning them into "WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography" banners with task force attributes that say "|organizedcrime=yes|organizedcrime-imp=Low" etc. At this stage, if you remove a banner then the project will lose assessment information. Rather than removing "duplicate" banners, please merge them if you think you can do so, or just leave them alone and the project team will eventually get around to merging them. Thanks in advance.
