Help needed at DRN

You are receiving this message because you are signed up as a volunteer at the Dispute Resolution Noticeboard. We have a number of pending requests which need a volunteer to address them. Unless you are an inexperienced volunteer who is currently just watching DRN to learn our processes, please take a case. If you do not see yourself taking cases in the foreseeable future, please remove yourself from the volunteer list so that we can have a better idea of the size of our pool of volunteers; if you do see yourself taking cases, please watchlist the DRN page and keep an eye out to see if there are cases which are ready for a volunteer. We have recently had to refuse a number of cases because they were listed for days with no volunteer willing to take them, despite there being almost 150 volunteers listed on the volunteer page. Regards, TransporterMan (talk · contribs) (Current DRN coordinator) This is an informational posting only and I am not watching this page; contact me on my user talk page if you wish to communicate with me about this. via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 19:48, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bot automation at Wikipedia:Today's articles for improvement

Greetings WikiProject TAFI members!

Over the past two weeks, there has been extensive discussion on introducing bot automation to assist with maintenance of the Today's Articles for Improvement project. A bot has now been approved for trial and will carry out the weekly duties. The bots first run will occur around 00:00, 22 November 2015 (UTC) (midnight on Sunday).

If you have been assisting any of the weekly maintenance tasks, please refrain from doing so this week. The bot needs to be tested and proven it can do the job, and it only gets one chance per week. The tasks will include:

Updating the accomplishments and archiving selections is still done manually, along with daily tasks such as adding approved entries to the articles for improvement page. These will become automated in the near future.

We hope the bot proves to serve well, and by carrying out the routine housekeeping tasks we can boost the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the project. MusikBot thanks you for your service in helping with the weekly tasks in the past, and for your cooperation during this trial period :)

Comment from BurOak496

Hi Smileguy91, Thanks for your comments. I'm just getting started so please be patient as I make mistakes and then correct them with help from you and others who are experienced with wiki pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BurOak496 (talk • contribs) 17:29, 22 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I apologize if the PROD notice was offensive. I do realize that new editors do work hard on creating new articles for the world's better knowledge. However, as a matter of policy BLP PROD must be enforced. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me! smileguy91talk - contribs 01:08, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Al Fozan

Appears to be a waste of good tags, every line I have Goggled is either directly from, or a close paraphrase, of a webpage. 220 of Borg 01:37, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article creator just deleted the template - time for some warnings... Thanks for telling me. smileguy91talk - contribs 02:03, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Message from Thetortorian

Hello,

Thank you for the kind message, I am not used to Wikipedia so am sorry if I did not manage to get something right, Best wishes,

Thetortorian (talk) 06:10, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Thetortorian, I apologize for the deletion message. I do realize that new editors are crucial to Wikipedia's running, and are the foundation of much of our new material. However, new pages must conform to Wikipedia's guidelines. WP:NRV was the issue in your article, I believe, that caused it to be deleted by an administrator's confirmation that the article met Wikipedia: Criteria for speedy deletion criteria. If you have any further questions, please contact me and I will be more than willing to assist. smileguy91talk - contribs 02:35, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am ishaan grewal I am extremely sorry for adding unreasonable content on some articles as I had done so unknowingly and was just trying to help Wikipedia. I will now only put good and useful content on articles. I am very sorry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ishaangrewal2001702 (talk • contribs) 11:31, 23 November 2015

Please, don't be sorry! The content on your page, I believe, was not unreasonable. It just simply did not expand on content already covered in Wikipedia's page on Table (database). Please see WP:A10 for more information on Wikipedia's guidelines on the creation articles that already have material coverage. If you have any more queries, please feel free to contact me. smileguy91talk - contribs 02:35, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:53, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Arden, Texas

Tell me that one person is not you! Drmies (talk) 04:56, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No, that person is not me, I'm from the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, which is quite the opposite of deserted at this point in time ;) smileguy91talk - contribs 05:00, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I was kind of hoping it'd be your grandfather, with some cool stories. Drmies (talk) 05:01, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have any stories as a first or second-hand teller, but these pictures do stir up the imagination! [1] smileguy91talk - contribs 05:04, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's pretty exciting. I've seen places like that in the north of Spain, where a couple of thousand bucks buys you a village in some beautiful setting. Of course you'd need water and power and people and a store and roads and whatnot. Don't we have a category for ghost towns? Is it a ghost town if there's still one person in there? And what if that one person was Johnny Manziel? Seriously, you gotta find out who the one person is and what their story is. Road trip! Take pictures! Drmies (talk) 14:35, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

Ammans Crossing, Texas (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver)
added links pointing to Kendall County and Guadalupe River
Audra, Texas (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver)
added a link pointing to Taylor County

Vandalism

Yes, I'll use that tag next time. Sorry, I just read it now and yes it seems to be harsh. I guess I was just frustrated because there have been a slew of IP editors and users who have been removing content from some of these pages and I've always been adding it back in but people just continue to remove them. However I will use that tag next time, thanks for letting me know. (137.147.55.166 (talk) 04:33, 28 November 2015 (UTC))[reply]
