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) 17:18, 18 August 2018 (UTC)

Ferries in Wellington
[edit]@Albeetle: Hi Albeetle, you have attached a template about "grammar, style, cohesion, tone, or spelling". Would you mind indicating your concerns in more detail? I look forward to seeing that.
I note you consider the incomplete list of steamers should be considered complete. Why is that?
Why are you adding images to Wikipedia? It looks to me as if they would be accepted by Wikimedia but I agree I may have missed something important. Thanks in advance, Eddaido (talk) 23:37, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
- @Eddaido: Hi, the "List was Incomplete" was already on the page, I was unsure it needed to be there but changed it to be a proper template instead of what was previously there (an italicised comment, see my change comment/the change I made).
- I have not added any images to that page, if you have any particular ones in mind that I've added in the past feel free to add them to WM yourself or ping me on the relevant talk page.
- With regards to the copyedit template, there are various parts of the article where I believe that a rewrite to improve flow and grammar would be nice; in particular, see the "Owners and Operators of Steamers" section which is missing commas and has a couple of run-on sentences. I *think* one of my prev edits on this page was a copyedit improvement, so you can see that too if you want an example.
- I'm also not particularly happy with the Steamers section (it should really be edited to either be a table or not to be a list of disconnected facts). See WP:PLOT!
- Have copy-pasted this onto the talk page for the article as well, please continue discussion about that on its own talk page so other editors can see it. Thanks! Albeetle (talk) 23:48, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
- You misread me. (full stop) You have added images to Wikipedia, not to the article. If you have unhappinesses about the article have a go at fixing them and then I can fix those changes if I don't like them. Eddaido (talk) 23:50, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
- As I said, ping me on the talk page for the relevant image. Albeetle (talk) 23:51, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
- Also, if you think the template(s) I added to the article are unneeded, feel free to remove them - but otherwise, please keep discussion about Ferries in Wellington on the talk page for that article, not on my user talk page. The image thing is on topic here, discussing an article is not. Thanks! Albeetle (talk) 23:54, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
- Here is an image on Wikimedia. Below it is an image on Wikipedia. They seem to have the same uploader. Eddaido (talk) 00:10, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for bringing this to my attention, as you can see I normally do upload my own photos to WM but in the Karo Dr case it seems I forgot. Will go fix that! Albeetle (talk) 00:14, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:South Wairarapa District Council logo.gif
[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:South Wairarapa District Council logo.gif. 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:33, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for December 20
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Lake Alice, Manawatū-Whanganui, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Turakina. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay
[edit]
Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.
Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.
Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics. Schwede66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
