Request for continued semi protection at Landing at Anzac Cove
Hello again. Thanks for previously having a look at Landing at Anzac Cove. Unfortunately the disruption has continued following the expiry of the previous semi-protection. Would it be possible to request this be extended please? I started a discussion thread on the talk page and the IP has refused to become involved. Kind regards.

Banff National Park
Hello. Banff National Park is likely to go to FAR soon I suspect. I see you live in Alberta and was wondering if you might be interested in assisting on helping maintainand improve the article so it retains its FA level. If not I surely understand as I am very time limited and busy already with another article I worked on long ago and trying to slowly update it so it doesn't get delisted. I'm going to also contact the primary editor on that article but she has been very sidetracked as well. Anyhoo...if you are interested, its one of the most beautiful places on Earth I think and the first national park in Canada so I just thought I would drop you a line on the matter. Best wishes.--MONGO20:18, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi MONGO and thanks for stopping by. Such a worthy project. I love Banff. I spent some time in 2009 and 2011 visiting and photographing some of the historic buildings on the Banff historical walking tour. Some of the resulting images are available at my unfinished project User:Diannaa/Banff historic buildings. I have a book about the park (Banff: Canada's First National Park by Eleanor G. Luxton) and will try to make time to source some of the content in the history section. -- Diannaa (talk) 20:36, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I do not know what the urgency is, probably low. I do know if we do something and can show some updating is going on, the article will avoid FAR. My main contributions were to the geography and glaciers sections and will work on that as I can, and if Aude is not available, also work on other sections as well. Thank you!--MONGO20:54, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'd love to help out too. Can help with geography/biology, maybe history. Will grab the Field Guide when at the Vancouver library tomorrow, and I'll see what else we've got. The Interior(Talk)22:18, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The most critical thing will be to support every potentially questionable detail with a reliable reference. The article may need expansion and or removal of anything that cannot be referenced, but you two know this so not trying to lecture. We can collectively work on any prose or MOS issues later.--MONGO03:24, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I just picked up Longerich's bio on Goebbels; if the one you reserved at the library is in then we can get started bringing that article back to GA as we discussed in the past. Cheers, Kierzek (talk) 02:00, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Our copy has not yet arrived. I have the week of the 18th booked off, so I will be able to get lots done at that time. I will order in the inter-library loans now. -- Diannaa (talk) 02:03, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Joseph Goebbels : life and death. Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan. Author: Thacker, Toby. Published: New York : 2009
The film minister : Goebbels and the cinema in the Third Reich. Publisher: Edition Axel Menges. Author: Moeller, Felix. Published: Stuttgart : 2000
I also already have at home a copy of Manvell and Fraenkel (originally published 1960). These older books are fine for details on the early life. I can get more of the older books (1973 through 1994) if we need more sources, but my experience has been that for biographies, three solid book sources are enough for GA. -- Diannaa (talk) 02:19, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think more will be needed with those above and Longerich (and Kershaw's bio on Hitler can be used to fill in too). Kierzek (talk) 02:24, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I was reading about the Nepal earthquake and talk page and saw a very constructive comment. I was going to reply to that person but see you have blocked the user. I sort of see your reason because the name has the word poop.
However, I voted in a Afd and a non administrator was seeing that he was the only keep vote so he thought of a made up excuse to remove my comments, saying that afd was not a vote and I put it in the wrong place. I thought that removing comments and a afd vote will result in a block but another admin isn't alarmed by this removing of votes.
I ask you to block Davie2010. If you do not, I will assume that occasional, not daily, removal of someone's afd vote is acceptable behavior that will not result in a block. I hope this isn't true.
Thank you in advance for blocking Davie2010. That helps wikipedia by preventing disruption and preventing copycats from disrupting wikipedia.
(talk page stalker) - Sorry Dianaa to barge in - Deepavali 2014 I explained why I removed your !vote and I also told you in the most simple of terms you can add it back providing it met the goals which were set on your talkpage .... The only person causing disruption here is you, I would kindly ask you to stop going to everyone moaning about me and to simply come to my talkpage if you have an issue, Thank you. –Davey2010Talk03:10, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Deepavali 2014. I see by your contribs that you have been asking numerous admins (at least four) to block Davey2010 for the last three days for removing your AFD vote. He has already offered an explanation for that action at your talk page. I don't think what he did calls for a block, and neither do any of the other admins you asked. What you are doing by asking multiple admins to take action against a user is called admin shopping, and is considered disruptive. Please find a way to contribute productively, or your career here could be very short. -- Diannaa (talk) 03:19, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've needed to block this editor for disruptive editing and further admin shopping. Recommending an indefinite block with a six month offer if this continues. Considerable disruption across a very short tenure here at Wikipedia and despite multiple "talks" lacking WP:CLUE. Mkdwtalk06:23, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
April 2015 Wikification awards.
The Working Wikifier's Barnstar
For scoring 6th place on the leaderboard during the 2015 Wikification Backlog drive, you are hereby awarded the Working Wikifier's Barnstar! Congratulations!
The Iron Wikification Barnstar
For wikifying 10 articles, you are also awarded the Iron Wikification Barnstar. Keep up the good work!
I came to ask you some questions about the drive because I'm fairly new to the drives themselves. If you happen to be on, can you help me? I finished an article that would fit into the longest article category, but I don't know if I have to have a coordinator put it in or how it works. InfernusIsHiding-Talk18:35, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
So, is it only the "longest article" part that has only 1 entry? Like, does everything I have done apply to all of the parts or once I add my standings, everything locks down for me. (I really like the look of that golden award :D) InfernusIsHiding-Talk18:52, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I noticed that you blocked User:LoLROFLWTFOMFG for having an inappropriate username. The user is now requesting an unblock on the grounds that their username isn't an issue. I don't see an issue with it, so I'd like to unblock them unless you object. Jackmcbarn (talk) 20:55, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
LoLROFLWTFOMFG stands for "laugh our loud rolling on the floor laughing what the fuck oh my fucking god", which many people might find objectionable. -- Diannaa (talk) 22:48, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Dannis243 is taking it upon himself to edit against the consensus reached concerning the infobox maps for Nazi Germany simply because he does not agree with the result. I have spoken to him, but he appears to be shrugging it off and has created another Talk Page section concerning the same issue. Director had spoken with him about the same issue back in March when the consensus was reached, but he has ignored my mention of it. He now claims that I am going against WP:ASSUME GOOD FAITH, but I am simply reverting his edits that were made against a prior discussion. Please can I have some assistance? Thank you.
