Re: Welcome[edit]

Hi,

Nice work with Mario Cantone. I'm so glad that you're interested in providing needed citations for biographical articles. If you're looking for a list of such articles, you might consider Category:BLP articles lacking sources. BLP stands for biographies of living persons. As you can see, we have a huge backlog! Please let me know if you have any additional questions. GabrielF (talk) 03:38, 8 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Opting in to VisualEditor[edit]

As you may know, VisualEditor ("Edit ^beta") is currently available on the English Wikipedia only for registered editors who choose to enable it. Since you have made 100 or more edits with VisualEditor this year, I want to make sure that you know that you can enable VisualEditor (if you haven't already done so) by going to your preferences and choosing the item, "MediaWiki:Visualeditor-preference-enable". This will give you the option of using VisualEditor on articles and userpages when you want to, and give you the opportunity to spot changes in the interface and suggest improvements. We value your feedback, whether positive or negative, about using VisualEditor, at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback. Thank you, Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 18:21, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Nathan Lane[edit]

Just saw how you've lately been adding a bunch of citations to his article. Thank you for your efforts; these were well needed. Snuggums (talk / edits) 02:29, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thansk! Can you tell me how to easily reply to comments here? The only way I can figure is to copy the code from yours and replace with with my information. Gonne Yeats (talk / edits) 07:10, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You just did leave a reply by clicking "edit section" when it shows up. Also, to leave your signature, place four tildes (the "~" symbol) in a row. Remember to sign all of your comments with it. Snuggums (talk / edits) 15:43, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I've finally made it through the 90s. Gonne Yeats (talk) 21:59, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. I think I finished the citations on the Lane page. Do you think it has enough to get rid of the "needing additional citations" templates? Gonne Yeats (talk) 21:14, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
