The article Testaroli you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Testaroli for things which need to be addressed. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Carbrera -- Carbrera (talk) 22:41, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Lean finely textured beef in its finished form.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
((di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>))
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 11:41, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

I've clicked that AFD link 3 times in the space of 1 day and each time I've burst out laughing and then aired some expletives! ![]() You sir have brightened up my day so thank you! :) |
Just wanted to say thank you for the invite to Food and Drink, again. I'm not very active (I've only created 3 articles there, although I really enjoyed creating all 3, especially Pastrami on rye, but I've saved a few from G13 or AfD), but I think as time goes on I'll be more active there. There's just so much work that needs to be done in the early film area, sometimes I get overwhelmed. Anyway, got the monthly newsletter and just thought I'd take the time to say thank you again. Onel5969 TT me 00:57, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
May I impose and ask you to please consider joining me as a coordinator for WP:Project Accuracy (WPA)? The initial plan is to recruit 3 or 5 WPA coordinators to oversee the project, work collaboratively with the various project teams regarding their GA and FA promotions, and become part of or help with the creation of an editorial review board (or team or committee)? An editor recently suggested a possible name change to "Accredited review" or "Accredited editor". WPA is in its embryonic stages of development, and I am currently in discussions with a WMF staffer who is helping me get things coordinated for a possible grant. Atsme📞📧 13:07, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
There is no consensus at WT:MFD for admin's to Relist discussions especially indiscriminate relistings without a comment. I have begun reverting your deletionist attempts to get content wrongfully deleted. Close as no consensus as that is now MFD policy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.171.121.19 (talk • contribs) 20:24, 1 April 2016 (UTC)
The intent of the deletion process is to attempt to determine consensus on whether an article should be deleted. However, if at the end of the initial seven-day period, the discussion has only a few participants (including the nominator), and/or it seems to be lacking arguments based on policy, it may be appropriate for the closer to relist it, to solicit further discussion to determine consensus.
No response here?
Just to go off of that edit summary, I generally remove instances of extra sources such as that when I can, because it makes articles unwieldy when there are ten or so citations after a fact. I would have done it even if I did not vote, but I wanted to clean it up to help the article look a bit more professional. On the other hand, the amount of sources that was there before can often appear to be an attempt to make something appear more notable than it really is, which could influence more people into a delete vote on that discussion. I hope this helps to clarify things, and let me know if you have any further questions. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 16:54, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
No, I can entirely say that those Transformers AfDs were not going towards any other result and I myself would've participated but it was clear enough, not to mention because the article had no signs of independent notability. Furthermore, threatening me with ANI is completely unnecessary as my participation at AfD outweighs any "troubles" I am supposedly causing. Furthermore, I know I have not been the only one to close an AfD and not merge the contents as mentioned, after all the contents are always in the history logs anyway. Furthermore, if you're going to mention the "too early", AfD also states that if a consensus is clear enough as it was with Transformers, it may be closed (two or three votes are enough at best and AfDs have been closed as such before). I'm going to be honest, if you and I can't see eye to eye, it may be best for us not to closely encounter each other. SwisterTwister talk 18:48, 1 April 2016 (UTC)
Just a point but if you relist a page at MFD, you should also add a new timestamp at the top so that the bot will properly re-sort the discussion. That's part of the massive fighting at WT:MFD but it's needed. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 22:34, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
I've been here 11 years, I'm well aware there's no relationship. It makes no sense why having more time would have stuff deleted until you believe that the more eyes will cause things to be deleted. I'm pointing out the futility of trying to argue about it at this point. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 23:25, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
I'm aware of who this is. This character has been taking discussion I closed a half decade ago to DRV. However, if I revert or argue that their nonsense is nonsense, I've been chewed out for being biased because this character is attacking me (no, the irony of calling it uncivil to remove an uncivil comment from a banned user is not surprising to me). Welcome to the reason why no one ever wants to sign up for RFA, you get ripped to shreds for trying to deal with your own trolls following you around. Nevertheless, I reversed the closure and relisted the discussion. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 21:37, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Organic chocolate, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cacao. 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.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bean dip. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, ), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

The fact was ... that lean finely textured beef, also known as pink slime, in the U.S ground beef supply declined from 70% in March 2012 to around 5% in March 2013, in part due to news media coverage about it?

Hi, I appealed for a removal of a ban imposed on me, here at Wikipedia:Administrator's noticeboard/Incidents#Appeal for removal of ban. Since the discussions are archived after 36 hours, I am unsure and hence want to know when this will be closed. I am primarily concerned because I apprehend that it might be archived before coming to a result. Please help me out. Thanks. RRD13 দেবজ্যোতি (talk) 17:48, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
Thank you for helping to improve articles related to superfood nutrition, especially chocolate. Raw chocolate is a true superfood, and organic chocolate is a phenomenon worthy of recognition.

Thank you for working to keep the Jamie Masada-article published! However, on your recent shuffling with the pictures, I have a few objections... that 'the original Laugh Factory...' picture makes a nice 'article-picture', and the 'Marquee'-picture is supposed to be illustrative (is that a word?) of the Thanksgiving and Christmas meals. Oh, and while you're busy anyway, could you do your 'Wikipedia-link' magic to this link http://www.hadassahmagazine.org/2006/06/11/profile-jamie-masada/ and add it to the 'Further reading'-section?

Hi. I see you have blocked this user for having an unacceptable username. But at WP:ISU it says "However, usernames are acceptable if they contain a company or group name but are clearly intended to denote an individual person, such as "Mark at WidgetsUSA", "Jack Smith at the XY Foundation", "WidgetFan87", etc.", so I don't see why "Holly at FireText" is problematic. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 09:53, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
Hi. Hate to bug you. I went to nominate an article, Childress Vineyards for deletion, with the following summary: "Other than the fact of it being owned by a celebrity sportsperson, article has been cited for lack of sources since 2013. Searches turned up a number of hits, but all in the trivial mention category, for the most part, or in the local paper (which doesn't satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH. I was actually surprised, as I was going to add citations, at the dearth of available references."
When I clicked submit, the tag on the article appeared, but the article's entry at AfD did not. I would simply have reverted, and attempted it again, but was unsure if by so doing it would screw something up. Thanks in advance.Onel5969 TT me 18:34, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
I noticed that you are one of the leading editors at List of cakes. Do you know if we have an article or content in a section of another article for the type of giant cake from which a model pops out for festive occasions (e. g. this video)? I understand that these are sometimes made largely or entirely of cardboard and frosting, but sometimes there is a real cake outside of the hidden compartment. I have tried surprise cake, pop cake and popup cake.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:39, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi Northamerica1000, I apologize for moaning ... but do you honestly feel all of the messages at Talk:Clarawood are of relevence to the article in hand?,
