==Your draft article, [[Draft:Malia Obama]]==
[[File:Information icon4.svg|48px|left|alt=|link=]]

Hello, Paintspot. It has been over six months since you last edited the [[WP:AFC|Articles for Creation]] submission or [[WP:Drafts|Draft]] page you started, "[[Draft:Malia Obama|Malia Obama]]". 

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia [[WP:mainspace|mainspace]], the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply {{edit|Draft:Malia Obama|edit the submission}} and remove the {{tlc|db-afc}}, {{tlc|db-draft}}, or {{tlc|db-g13}} code. 

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at [[WP:REFUND/G13|this link]]. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. <!-- Template:Db-draft-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:Legacypac|Legacypac]] ([[User talk:Legacypac|talk]]) 08:57, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

== Disambiguation pages ==

Hi Paintspot, Many thanks for creating those disambiguation pages for various flight incident. Very helpful! As part of my review I noticed [[Flight 472]]. This one only has two entries. In such cases it is often more efficient to create a disambiguation hat note on top of the articles referring to the respective other one.

==Disambiguation link notification for August 16==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited [[Reiko Nakano]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Richard Evans]] ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Reiko_Nakano check to confirm]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Reiko_Nakano?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are [[WP:INTDABLINK|usually incorrect]], since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].)</small>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these [[User:DPL bot|opt-out instructions]]. Thanks, [[User:DPL bot|DPL bot]] ([[User talk:DPL bot|talk]]) 07:42, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

== Meanings of minor planets: 10K summary pages ==

Hi Paintspot, thx for {{-r|Meanings of minor planet names: 490001–491000|checking and fixing}} some partial MoMP pages. I'm wondering if the 10K-summary pages, such as [[Meanings of minor planet names: 530001–540000]] should be redirected as well. They seem completely obsolete. Since you have created some of the most recent ones in this series, I thought I should be asking you first. [[User:Rfassbind/Task_list#Task_33:_obsolete_10K-MOMP_summary_pages|Do you think these pages could be redirected as well]]? <em>[[User:Rfassbind|<span style="font-weight:bold;color:forestgreen;"><span style="color:#a2a2a2;">R</span>fassbind</span>]] <small>[[User talk:Rfassbind|&ndash; talk]]</small></em> 22:29, 15 October 2019 (UTC)

== Jaiden Animations ==

Hi Paintspot. I note that you posted a '''strong keep''' for the Jaiden Animations page. Since Wikipedia deleted the article on Jaiden Animations, I've created a page for Jaiden Animations on [https://socialmediawiki.net/wiki/Jaiden_Animations Social Media Wiki], which has been set up specifically to host wiki pages that Wikipedia has deemed not to be "noteworthy" enough for an article.

== Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks! ==

Hello, 

[[:mw:Google Code-in/2019|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 [[:mw:Google Code-in/2019|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!

==''[[Hair Love]]''==
[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hi, and thank you for [[Special:Contributions/Paintspot|your contributions]] to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "[[Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Fixing cut-and-paste moves|cut-and-paste move]]", and it is undesirable because it splits the [[Help:Page history|page history]], which is [[Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia|legally required for attribution]].  Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be ''moved'' to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is [[WIkipedia:Autoconfirmed|four days old and has ten edits]], you should be able to move an article yourself using the [[Help:Moving a page|"Move" tab]] at the top of the page (the tab may be [[:File:Vector hidden move button.png|hidden in a dropdown menu]] for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a [[Wikipedia:Redirect|redirect]] from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Requested moves|requested moves]] to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at [[Wikipedia:Requests for history merge]]. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-c&pmove -->

:{{Ping|Citrivescence}} – May I request some clarification? Given that the page "[[Hair Love]]" isn't a duplicate of the [[Matthew A. Cherry]] page (but is instead a content fork for a short film that is now notable enough for its own page given its Oscar nomination): What should I have done in this scenario, and what should I do? To my knowledge, I created a "Hair Love" page and split the content from the Hair Love section of Matthew Cherry's page. My apologies if I made a mistake in the process of moving the section's information to its own page. Should something be done to supply the [[Hair Love]] page with a version of the "[[Matthew A. Cherry]]" page's history? <small>[[User:Paintspot|Paintspot Infez]] ([[User talk:Paintspot|talk]])</small> 19:05, 13 January 2020 (UTC)

==Your draft article, [[Draft:Malia Obama]]==
[[File:Information icon4.svg|48px|left|alt=|link=]]

Hello, Paintspot. It has been over six months since you last edited the [[WP:AFC|Articles for Creation]] submission or [[WP:Drafts|Draft]] page you started, "[[Draft:Malia Obama|Malia Obama]]". 

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia [[WP:mainspace|mainspace]], the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply {{edit|Draft:Malia Obama|edit the submission}} and remove the {{tlc|db-afc}}, {{tlc|db-draft}}, or {{tlc|db-g13}} code. 

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at [[WP:REFUND/G13|this link]]. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! <!-- Template:Db-draft-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:JMHamo|JMHamo]] ([[User talk:JMHamo|talk]]) 11:20, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

I see you also are renaming pages. Do you wanna split some of the work to coordinate? [[User:Starzoner|Starzoner]] ([[User talk:Starzoner|talk]]) 03:41, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

:{{Ping|Starzoner}} Yeah, definitely! That would be nice. ...Also, I noticed that you moved a few of the pages to "COVID'''–'''19 pandemic in..." instead of "COVID'''-'''19 pandemic in...", with an en-dash ("–") instead of just a regular standard hyphen/dash ("-"). It should be consistent with the main article (which is at [[COVID-19 pandemic]], with the regular hyphen/dash), fyi. <small>[[User:Paintspot|Paintspot Infez]] ([[User talk:Paintspot|talk]])</small> 03:45, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi Paintspot, so the majority of Wikipedians wants to use the little hyphen to rename as '''COVID-19 pandemic''' I will not have time to finish all of them, so I few a few more edits and I'm going to sleep. I will continue some COVID-19 related edits the next day. Because I can't finish all of them could take over for me to rename into COVID-19 related titles with a little dash. I will be glad to help you. I am sorry for my editing confusion. Thanks for your time and I thank you for editing assistance. A few more and going to sleep. Sleep tight and talk to you soon.

:Haha, you're totally fine! And I appreciate all of your help in getting the ball rolling! I was just doing a few manually at first, but thankfully, a few Wikipedians much smarter than me were able to mass-move all of the relevant pages with "[2019–20]/[2020] coronavirus pandemic" in their titles essentially at once!

::{{u|Paintspot}}, there were quite a few that were messed up that you missed. In the future when you move something, it's a good idea to check your contributions to make sure the talk pages were moved over and all redirects were taken care of.

I just wanted to expand upon why I have moved the article back (and this will apply to future episodes). [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:We_Interrupt_This_Program&oldid=1003606067 We currently] do not have basically any episode-specific material to justify its existence; all that is there is either [[WP:ROTM|run-of-the-mill]] info applicable to ''any'' given episode (plot, cast, reviews) or info from the series article presented again to give context to things (basically all of the development and filming sections). Remember [[WP:NORUSH|we are in no rush]], and I'm sure we'll get the production insight from the creatives soon (be it later today or the coming days), at which point, it will most likely be good to move to the mainspace. - [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] ([[User talk:Favre1fan93|talk]]) 20:13, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

But since it did not, and we are working towards making the WandaVision episode a full article, that in my view made it the primary topic. - [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] ([[User talk:Favre1fan93|talk]]) 20:32, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
:::Oh and to reiterate what I said in my initial comment, for episodes 5-9 of WandaVision, it's the hope to again start these in the draft space and build them out because we hardly have any info for them, unlike the first three because the press got to see though and readied articles.

FYI the tropical cyclone naming article distinctly only covers current naming practises which the greek names no longer are, as otherwise it would become bogged down in details such as previous warning centres naming systems, the BoM previously having 3 separate naming lists etc. As a result of this we have [[History of tropical cyclone naming]] and [[List of historical tropical cyclone names]], which give the appropiate weight to the systems.[[User:Jason Rees|Jason Rees]] ([[User talk:Jason Rees|talk]]) 03:50, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

:{{Ping|IronManCap}} Oh shoot, my bad! I was just trying to add hatnotes on all the character pages whose redirects could be ambiguous with the films: but I hadn't checked in a bit that this specific redirect no longer redirected to [[Steve Rogers (Marvel Cinematic Universe)]]—which makes 100% sense given that there's now more than one character that refers to!

::Yeah, I understand. I guess Rogers is the only anomaly in this instance. I suppose ''technically'' the same issue could be raised with [[Scott Lang (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Scott Lang]], as [[Hank Pym (Marvel Cinematic Universe)|Hank Pym]] was also Ant-Man, although that was offscreen and before the MCU's depiction.

:::Yeah, but it 1000% makes sense to have "Captain America (Marvel Cinematic Universe)" redirect to a dab page, especially given that the title has applied to (1.) multiple characters (2.) in the ''present'' of the franchise, (3.) two of which have Wikipedia pages (4.) and have headlined / will headline a film while occupying that title.

== Capitalisation of ''Undertale'' soundtrack track titles ==

Hi. Are you aware of [[MOS:CT]] and [[WP:TMRULES]]? What significance does the capitalisation of "NGAHHH!!!" have? Is that not just a yell of some sort? What does "sans." need to start with a lower-case letter for? "CORE" and "SAVE" I could maybe understand, although neither are acronyms and ''are'' stylisations, and all that SAVE in all-caps appears to mean is to emphasise that it refers to the game's save function. <b>[[User:Ss112|<span style="color: #FF6347;">Ss</span>]]<small>[[User talk:Ss112|<span style="color: #1E90FF;">112</span>]]</small></b> 03:39, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

== Clarification ==

About the edit I did on Shota Aizawas Page. So I just wanted to say I wouldn’t say it was vandalism. When I edited the page it originally was actually about the fictional character. And there was a false birth date so I wanted to make it right. But now it got changed to a page about the football player. I wasn’t aware of that so how was I supposed to know? Right I couldn’t have known, so I’m sorry anyway but I really didn’t know that the Wikipedia page now is about the football player. (Sorry for my English aswell I’m German.)

== List of Pokémon revert ==

Hello. Can you clarify what [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_generation_IX_Pok%C3%A9mon&oldid=prev&diff=1074883268 this edit summary means]? It wasn't clear to me, and I find myself otherwise quite surprised that an editor of 8 years would restore an article of such poor quality without improvement.

:Hello! What I meant was: "Wikipedia has a fully-intact, fully-complete list of every species of Pokémon and their types and evolutions, etc. After that edit, that complete list (of every species of Pokémon and their types and evolutions) became incomplete." While the Generation IX page's entries needed a bit of further sourcing and/or expanding, it can't be improved if readers can't easily access it or it doesn't exist. <small>[[User:Paintspot|Paintspot Infez]] ([[User talk:Paintspot|talk]])</small> 18:55, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
::It can still be cultivated on the [[Pokémon Violet]] page though, which is pretty barren as well. I would have merged, but the list appeared to be largely unsourced...

A tag has been placed on [[:Technoblade]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G4|section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a [[Wikipedia:Deletion debates|deletion discussion]], at [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 November 20#Technoblade (and others)]]. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Technoblade|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

==Notice of group resource==
{{notice|You are invited to join [[WP:CONTEMPORARY|Contemporary History Task Force, at WikiProject History]]!!}}

I would like to invite any interested editors here to join the [[WP:CONTEMPORARY|task force for Contemporary History]]. One of our core goals is to highlight and promote the coverage of contemporary history as its own distinct area here at Wikipedia. 

We differ from a simple effort to cover current events, in that we seek to provide the editing community with resources that would allow it to provide broad and comprehensive coverage of articles on contemporary history as a broad topical field, rather than simply on individual current events as they may occur. 

to that end, we have set up articles such as [[2020s in political history]], which allow the whole editing community to adopt a broad scope in keeping wikipedia updated with broad historical trends, topics and events, as they occur, but also as they become relevant to the field of history overall. I hope that sounds helpful and worthwhile to you. you are welcome to join us in any way, or to offer any input or ideas that you may wish. we welcome your input. thanks!! --[[User:Sm8900|Sm8900]] ([[User talk:Sm8900|talk]]) 15:16, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

The article [[:Lower Duck Pond]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>'''Non-notable subreddit lore'''</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:Lower Duck Pond|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify -->

Hi Paintspot. I saw that you have an interest in pages about people and politics and was hoping you would be willing to weigh-in regarding my COI request [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:EPAM_Systems#EPAM_Ukraine here]. For example, one of my complaints is that the current page explains the CEO was criticized for not publicly condemning Russia, without explaining that the safety of his employees would be put at risk if he did so. I posted at BLPN, but it did not prompt much discussion. [[User:Ladida555|Ladida555]] ([[User talk:Ladida555|talk]]) 17:25, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

== The full second years for drought articles ==

Is there some reason under which the second year has to be completely spelled?

:{{Ping|Tropical Storm Angela}} It is, actually! The Manual of Style (in [[MOS:YEARRANGE]]) says that, basically:
:* it's okay to abbreviate the second year <u>ONLY IF they're two consecutive years</u> (so, for example, you're allowed to use either "2020–'''2021'''" or "2020–'''21'''"),
:* but that <u>ALL other year ranges</u> should have both years written out in full (so "2020–'''2022'''" is permitted, while "2022–'''22'''" is not). <small>[[User:Paintspot|Paintspot Infez]] ([[User talk:Paintspot|talk]])</small> 19:44, 4 May 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Paintspot,

An editor reverted your page move because he stated that this is how weather pages are titled. I'm not familiar enough with MOS to know whether or not this is true but I thought I'd let you know about this change. <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 02:36, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

== So Into You (Tamia song) ==

Hey Paintspot.

Since you recently supported the move for the capitalization of "into" for the "[[So Into You (Tamia song)|So Into You]]" song by Tamia, what would be your opinion on Kylie Minogue's "[[Come into My World]]" song? I was just wondering whether or not I should make another request a move for that too. [[User:AnimatedZebra|AnimatedZebra]] ([[User talk:AnimatedZebra|talk]]) 20:10, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
*{{Ping|AnimatedZebra}} I'd probably vote Oppose on that move. The only reason I supported a move for "So Into You" is because "into you" is an idiomatic phrase (where the word "into" is being used as more than just a normal preposition) —&nbsp;but in "Come into My World", "into" is basically just a regular preposition. <small>[[User:Paintspot|Paintspot Infez]] ([[User talk:Paintspot|talk]])</small> 21:41, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

== Grey (the color) ==

You sent a thanks for my July 2021 edit on this article. I am baffled as to why ppl keep editing the image from a lovely "shades of grey" volcanic image, to a volcanic image in shades of tan and brown! The current image has been returned to the "brown/tan" image. 

Why, oh why? Grey and Brown are very different. The image I prefer has wonderful gradations of light grey to darker grey. Sigh. But thanks for the support! (Pls ping, if you wish to reply, I'm not very active at this time.)

== Sourcing and notability on lists of Pokémon by generation (e.g., [[List of generation I Pokémon]]) ==

Hello {{u|Paintspot}},

The lists of Pokémon by generation articles contain a large volume of information in the 'notes' column which appears to not be sourced and/or below the threshold for notability due to being detailed in-universe information. 

I have opened a discussion in the teahouse before making any changes to avoid edit wars and agree on the appropriate actions for these articles. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Teahouse#Notes_in_the_lists_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_by_generation_(e.g.,_List_of_generation_I_Pok%C3%A9mon) [which will likely be included in archive 1198 if this link is no longer active].

As you are one of the people who has contributed strongly to these articles over the years (see  https://xtools.wmcloud.org/authorship/en.wikipedia.org/List_of_generation_I_Pok%C3%A9mon , https://xtools.wmcloud.org/authorship/en.wikipedia.org/List_of_generation_II_Pok%C3%A9mon , etc. which list you amongst the top authors of these pages' content), I want to keep you informed so that there is a consensus for any significant changes to these page moving forwards.

A tag has been placed on [[:Kalcium]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G4|section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a [[Wikipedia:Deletion debates|deletion discussion]], at [[Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2019_September_29#Kalcium]]. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Kalcium|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=Kalcium|deleting administrator}}, or if you have already done so, you can place a request [[WP:RFUD|here]]. <!-- Template:Db-repost-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> <span style="background-color: #FFCFBF; font-variant: small-caps">[[User:Utopes|Utopes]] <sub>('''[[User talk:Utopes|talk]]''' / '''[[Special:Contributions/Utopes|cont]]''')</sub></span> 23:02, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

== Invitation to participate in a research ==

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this '''[https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/962595?lang=en anonymous survey]'''.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Research:Wikipedia Administrator Recruitment, Retention, and Attrition|Meta page]] and view its [[wmf:Special:MyLanguage/Legal:Administrator Experiences 2024 Survey Privacy Statement|privacy statement]] .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Research|WMF Research Team]]
