Delicate ve precious (talk) 04:24, 4 April 2025 (UTC) A discussion that might be of your interestHello, I’m currently focused on improving the quality of image use across Wikipedia, especially by identifying cases where certain files may be unnecessary, excessive, or sensational in tone — particularly in articles that deal with sensitive or controversial topics. One such image appears in the article [[Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy]]. It shows a squealing pig, and I believe it may not align with WP:UNDUE or reflect appropriate encyclopedic balance. I plan to nominate the file for discussion at Wikipedia:Files for discussion,focusing on policy-based reasoning rather than emotional or religious offense that is not accepted. Although my motivations are rooted in policy and editorial standards — not personal offense — I understand that others might view the image through additional lenses. Diverse perspectives are valuable in discussions like this , I’ll be posting the nomination shortly and would welcome your input. Let’s keep building this encyclopedia thoughtfully and collaboratively. 39.48.5.94 (talk) 19:33, 16 April 2025 (UTC) The World DestubathonHello. You're invited to participate in The World Destubathon. We're aiming to destub a lot of articles and also improve longer stale articles. It will be held from Monday June 16 - Sunday July 13. There is over $3300 going into it, with $500 the top prize. If you are interested in winning something to save you money in buying books for future content, or just see it as a good editathon opportunity to see a lot of articles improved for subjects which interest you, sign up on the page in the participants section if interested. Even if you can only manage a few articles they would be very much appreciated and help towards making the content produced as diverse and broad as possible!♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:13, 15 June 2025 (UTC) Wikipedia:WikiProject Skyscrapers/Tallest building lists has an RfC Guide to temporary accountsHello, Rehman. This message is being sent to remind you of significant upcoming changes regarding logged-out editing. Starting 4 November, logged-out editors will no longer have their IP address publicly displayed. Instead, they will have a temporary account (TA) associated with their edits. Users with some extended rights like administrators and CheckUsers, as well as users with the temporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right will still be able to reveal temporary users' IP addresses and all contributions made by temporary accounts from a specific IP address or range. How do temporary accounts work?

Thanks, 🎃 SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 02:47, 31 October 2025 (UTC) Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:21, 1 November 2025 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Destubathon of the AmericasYou are invited to participate in the Destubathon of the Americas, a contest/editathon which will run from May 1 to May 31. The goal is to destub as many of our 475,000+ stubs for the Americas (from Alaska down to Chile) as possible. A good chance to have fun in expanding many of our old stale stubs and win up to £2000 ($2680) in Amazon vouchers for expanding stub articles. Sign up in the Contestants/participants section on the contest page if interested. Even if not interested in prizes you are still warmly welcome to participate in it as an editathon! Hopefully we can achieve something significant in the month of May together! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:28, 15 April 2026 (UTC) Merge proposal for List of largest hydroelectric power stationsHi. I'm proposing to merge two nearly identical lists, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of largest hydroelectric power stations (2nd nomination). It looks like you proposed the same merger in 2010, 16 years ago. Feel free to comment in the new proposal.

I nominated this category for deletion because it was populated by a template that has been deleted, so it will never contain anything. A Wondrous Raven (talk) 15:43, 7 June 2026 (UTC)

Electricity Generation Lanka moved to draftspaceThanks for your contributions to Electricity Generation Lanka. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because it consists of machine-generated text. I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while. Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. ‑‑gurkubondinn 12:56, 26 June 2026 (UTC) |
