Hi there. I was just working on the article [[Erin Markey]] you created back in 2016. Thanks for this great addition! I noticed there are a lot of blockquotes that could be improved. I was going to attempt to pull out the essential pieces from the blockquotes and incorporate them into paragraph form with related information, but I wanted to check with you first to see if you'd like to handle this. Let me know, and thanks again! [[User:Shoestringnomad|Shoestringnomad]] ([[User talk:Shoestringnomad|talk]]) 05:18, 27 June 2021 (UTC) |

Welcome to Wikipedia! I'd just like to thank you for your article on Orange Mound -- you write well, and I think you did a good job. Actually, I have another reason to be grateful -- a friend and I had been planning on writing this article (see a few peliminary notes we've put together), and we were pleasantly surprised to see that someone else had decided to do a good deal of our work for us, as it were. In the next couple of weeks, we plan on adding quite a bit to your article. So thanks for getting this project (that you didn't even know about) off to a great start, and for saving us some time;) I look forward to your comments about our additions -- Wikipedia is at its best when its editors collaborate. Do you live in Orange Mound or did you once live there? Just wondering.
P.S. I like how the article is organized. --Zantastik 07:42, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
License tagging for File:Cover image of What Should Legal Analysis Become.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Cover image of What Should Legal Analysis Become.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 20:05, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of The Religion of the Future
Hello Derossitt,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged The Religion of the Future for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. MarkYabloko 09:31, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
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.

Disambiguation link notification for November 29
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Free Trade Reimagined: The World Division of Labor and the Method of Economics, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Francisco Rodriguez. 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.

Non-free rationale for File:Cover image of The Religion of the Future.png
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Cover image of The Religion of the Future.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 17:41, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on School of London requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by 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'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 deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Ways to improve Journal of My Life
Hi, I'm Onel5969. DeRossitt, thanks for creating Journal of My Life!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Nice job, but a little too heavy on the quotations. Articles should mainly consist of prose, with quotations used to augment that prose. This article consists mostly of quotes, with prose in support of those quotes.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:11, 5 August 2018 (UTC)

The article Call-out culture has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
not notable. Sources seem to be almost entirely op-eds, it could be covered in a broader article on social media or something similar
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Bacondrum (talk) 22:26, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
Assume good faith
Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Call-out culture. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Bacondrum (talk) 02:13, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Invitation to edit call-out culture
Hi again, I had the opportunity to read the talk page archive of Call-out culture and noticed your comments in it. It appears to me that at some point you got discouraged from contributing to the article. I understand that there were behaviour roadblocks–something I myself faced when editing this article–however now we have a mediator who is willing to oversee content disputes, which gives me hope that this article will only continue to grow to be better than it ever was. I produced my plan here about how to go about improving the article, and have also been leaving a trail of ideas for new content at the end of Talk:Call-out_culture to use as soon as (about a week from now) the article is taken out of being edit-protected. I'd like to invite you to participate in the Talk page of this article in the coming weeks, and would greatly appreciate your input (be it to provide consensus, or new ideas). Thank you! —SridYO 20:38, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
- @DeRossitt: I appreciate the references. I had read the Talk page archive, not the ANI discussion, which I just did. My impression too is that Bacondrum is extremely biased towards to either deleting this article or keeping it very basic.
- But the real problem, as far as I can understand, is that the active editors of Call-out culture lack diversity of viewpoints. Bacondrum, and two other editors, seem to be either actively reluctant to improving the article (esp. mentioning the dominant viewpoints) or, at best, totally ignorant of this topic. While I was making my first edits in this article, I was the only person who was both actively interested in its improvement and aware of the dominant group of viewpoints (most of which got reverted by Bacondrum early this year.)
- I'm just curious though, how did Bacondrum get away with retaining their deletion changes despite majority of editors not giving consensus? Did you folks not take it dispute resolution?
- In any case, I would not wish to repeat history here. Which is why I invited you to collaborate with me on editing Call-out culture (as soon as it comes out of protected-edit in about 5 days). I need the support of fellow editors to improve this article. And I don't like how Bacondrum is the only editor who is mostly engaging with me on the Talk page. I've been adding all the sources I can find in Talk:Call-out_culture, and I'd appreciate consensus response from other editors. If Bacondrum is the only person objecting, and 3 other editors say otherwise, it would be much easier to make a decision. —SridYO 19:37, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
- Speaking only for myself, I am not interested enough in the Callout Culture article to devote time to fighting it out over edits. I’d rather be working on topics I’m really interested in. However, I thought the pre-Bacondrum article was far better than what it became after Bacondrum’s edits. And I found Bacondrum’s habits to be incredibly grating — giving the impression of barking orders at people along the lines of “we’ve got to whip this article into shape,” completely ignoring WP:NORUSH. This is someone who gave the impression of trying to WP:OWN the article and essentially holding the article hostage with an inexhaustible willingness to outlast anyone in an edit war (resulting, as you know, in multiple bans for violating 3RR). And so much of the discussion was over silliness like whether Bromwich was off limits for citation because he had previously written on fashion. It was just a very unrewarding process because we were arguing with someone who seemed incapable of discerning nuance or understanding Wikipedia policy, so the discussions would get nowhere. So I appreciate your kind encouragement to edit the article but my sole involvement has been to object to Bacondrum’s abusive and alienating editing which continues to evade Wikipedia governance. Bacondrum will surely consider that a “personal attack” but the truth isn’t an attack, it’s just the truth—and the multiple, increasingly lengthy bans Bacondrum has received show that administrators agree with me that Bacondrum’s conduct has been abusive, and I don’t think one can be faulted for stating the obvious. DeRossitt (talk)
- Thanks for your note! So, I opened yet another ANI incident on Bacondrum, because just in the last two days they tried to accuse me of acting in bad faith multiple times (presumably to discourage me from contributing?). See Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Bacondrum's_non-stop_bad-faith_accusations. I included the past two ANI's for context. Did I miss something? —SridYO 01:03, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- Hello again. I know you are not interested enough in the article to devote time to "fighting it out over edits" (I certainly can see how time-consuming and frustrating it can be!), BUT ... with a neutral mediator in place (who I'm sure will certainly nip any Bacondrum-related blockage in the bud), would you at least be interested in contributing to consensus based discussions in the Talk page? The mediator is user: Robert McClenon and he recently wrote "Also, if anyone has a suggestion for a way to involve more editors by neutrally inviting more editors via a WikiProject, that may help." and I thought of you. —SridYO 01:38, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Blockquotes in article on Erin Markey
Hi there. I was just working on the article Erin Markey you created back in 2016. Thanks for this great addition! I noticed there are a lot of blockquotes that could be improved. I was going to attempt to pull out the essential pieces from the blockquotes and incorporate them into paragraph form with related information, but I wanted to check with you first to see if you'd like to handle this. Let me know, and thanks again! Shoestringnomad (talk) 05:18, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
