Thanks
For setting the table at Constituencies of Belize. I'll get to the rest soon. I tend to have a low opinion of Wikimedia administrators, but you represent them well. If only they were all like that.
P.S. say hi to Lila for me. She might not remember me (we only met once), but her partner Wil most certainly does. Oh No! It's Faustus37! it is what it is - speak at the tone 08:07, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
- @Faustus37: Thanks for the kind words. BTW, I started an article for Cayo North, but didn't finish it. Do you have a script that creates the election results tables or do you create them by hand? Kaldari (talk) 07:27, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
- @Kaldari: It's all manual work, unfortunately. Slow going indeed. Oh No! It's Faustus37! it is what it is - speak at the tone 15:44, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

General Sanctions Notification
Please read this notification carefully:
A community decision has authorised the use of general sanctions for pages related to the Gamergate controversy.
The details of these sanctions are described here.
General sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. It is only effective if it is logged here. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

The article needs to have the image 'lest it'll be deleted for 'orphaned free use'.
Regarding this edit, please restore the image so it does not get deleted. Tutelary (talk) 21:38, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
- @Tutelary: Any deleted image can easily be undeleted. Let's settle the BLP issue first. Kaldari (talk) 22:06, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Steins-Rosetta.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Steins-Rosetta.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. — Huntster (t @ c) 16:51, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for November 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Cayo North, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page San Ignacio. 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.
