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.

DYK for Bean dip
 | On 3 April 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Bean dip, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

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, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

Thanks for your work on chocolate!
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. David Wolfe is a pioneer in this market. Wikipedia should be impartial about alternative topics worthy of recognition.
Thanks again!! Glacier2009 (talk) 04:12, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Glacier2009: I didn't really perform that much, but thanks. Something I like about Dark chocolate is that it has a significant amount of antioxidants. North America1000 04:02, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
DYK for Pink slime
| On 6 April 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Pink slime, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. 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? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Pink slime. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

Sorry, I had no idea about the copyright infringement (didn't know anybody had copyright on it). Again, sorry.Miep2 (talk) 04:45, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Miep2: In addition to the information I left on your talk page, check out Wikipedia:Plagiarism. Thanks, North America1000 04:46, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
Again, I'm sorry and it is removed (didn't know I'd written something that was based on plagiarism) Miep2 (talk) 19:46, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
Closure of appeal
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)
- N.b. @Royroydeb: As you've likely already noticed, the discussion was closed in your favor. North America1000 19:48, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- P.S. @Royroydeb: For future reference, to postpone pages from being archived, you can add {{Do not archive until}} and the {{bump}} template to denote the delay created. North America1000 03:56, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
DYK for Pastrami on rye
| On 10 April 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Pastrami on rye, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that the pastrami on rye sandwich has come to be a symbol of the classic New York Jewish deli? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Pastrami on rye. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

Quick Question
I have a question, however, please don't feel like you have to help me if you don't want to. I recently made a sandbox for another shopping mall near me, but a user who lived in St. Cloud didn't feel like the article would pass WP:NOTABILITY or whatever he said. I was wondering if you could take a look at it, here it is: User:Carbrera/MSM. Thanks! Carbrera (talk) 05:16, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Carbrera: Upon a review of independent sources in the draft, only one provides what could be considered significant coverage. There's also WP:AUD to keep in consideration. Has the topic received any additional coverage that is significant and independent of the topic? North America1000 19:30, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Your GA nomination of Vegetable chips
The article Vegetable chips you nominated as a good article has passed 
; see Talk:Vegetable chips for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know.

DYK for Jianbing
| On 10 April 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Jianbing, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that jianbing is one of the most popular street breakfasts in China? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Jianbing. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

- The visual editor can generate wikicode with image options in your language. Examples of image options are "thumb" or "left". You can ask to change to options in your language in Phabricator. [1][2]
- Wiktionaries and Wikisources can now use the visual editor. It is an opt-in beta feature. It still needs development to work better with these projects. [3][4]
- ORES is using new models. Tools that use ORES' predictions can behave strangely. ORES also has a new API. [5]
- The visual editor now supports classical Greek characters. [6]
Problems
- There was a bug when you used keyboard arrows in templates in the visual editor. This has now been fixed. [7]
Changes this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 12 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 13 April. It will be on all wikis from 14 April (calendar).- The wikipedia.org portal will get many small bug fixes and improvements. Most will be for the search box and suggested results that were added in March. [8]
Meetings
- You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 12 April at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.
You can join the next meeting with the Architecture committee. The topics this week are improving transclusion of templates for Parsoid and balanced templates. The meeting will be on 13 April at 21:00 (UTC). See how to join.
Future changes
- Wikimedia has a new backup data center in Dallas. Because of planned work on this, you will be able to read but not edit the wikis for a short period of time on both 19 April and 21 April. This will start at 14:00 UTC and last for 15 to 30 minutes. [9]

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.
