I use Inkscape as it's the most efficient for me, though CorelDRAW or Illustrator, as you mentioned, would also work. If you need anything or outlines, etc. feel free to message me. S.A. Julio (talk) 13:24, 9 January 2019 (UTC)

  • @S.A. Julio: Thanks for the info, its truly appreciated. I'll try to create one of those and test myself in the coming months during any local final; if I found anything complicated then I'll comeback to you. Thanks in advance, and cheers! Ben5218 (talk) 21:05, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

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 the calculation of 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. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Orphaned non-free image File:Raja CA Mersa Matruh logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Raja CA Mersa Matruh logo.png. 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) 18:40, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

Your recent move requests

Hi Ben! I noticed you had a couple of move requests recently. In the case of Asyut → Assiut, "Asyut" is the WP:COMMONNAME. In the cases of Assiut Airport → Asyut Airport, Assiut Barrage → Asyut Barrage, Assiut University → Asyut University, Our Lady of Assiut → Our Lady of Asyut, the WP:COMMONNAME is "Assiut". I.e. this is what English people expect them to be called, even though the names are not consistent with the common English name of the city. Language is tricky! You might like to read WP:OFFICIAL and WP:NAMINGCRITERIA as well. Keep contributing, and good luck! Danielklein (talk) 02:08, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

@Danielklein: Hello Daniel. Thanks for this comment and to be honest with you, I don't think that I made the right choice by listing those articles on WP:RM. I originally requested Asyut to me moved to Assiut here; but after I was convinced with other users' comments about that Asyut is the correct way to spell the name, I decided to list all other articles including "Assiut" on WP:RM to be replaced with "Asyut". I thought about withdrawing my nomination, but I preferred to wait to hear other people's opinions. Hopefully I didn't made the wrong choice. Thanks again. Ben5218 (talk) 21:23, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
As well as contributing to various wikis, I am also fairly active on the Stack Exchange network of sites. It can be tricky to learn the correct behaviour, and I still get tripped up myself sometimes! There are guidelines both on the Wikipedia network of sites and on Stack Exchange, and these are often not concrete rules. However, being aware of them and the spirit behind them will steer you in the right direction most of the time. The most important thing is that you come with an open mind and are willing to learn what the community thinks is the best behaviour. It sounds like this is what you are already doing, well done! Danielklein (talk) 00:18, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
Glad to hear such things, thanks. Have a good one. Ben5218 (talk) 18:09, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2019–20 Egyptian Premier League, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Puma (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Your draft article, Draft:ON Sport

Hello, Ben5218. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "ON Sport".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

2019–20 Al Ahly SC season moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, 2019–20 Al Ahly SC season, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 13:22, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Egyptian football clubs 2019–20 season requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

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.

Reliable sources for the Egyptian Premier League stats

Hi Ben. I'm contacting you as you seem to be an expert on Egyptian football here. :-) I've been unable to find a website which has reliable stats for Egyptian Premier League matches. Could you point me to one? I've been unable to verify this change. I reverted it previously as Soccerway didn't support it but perhaps Soccerway's numbers are incomplete… Kind regards, Robby.is.on (talk) 11:11, 8 December 2019 (UTC)

@Robby.is.on: Hello Robby. Beside Soccerway, there isn't that many "decent" English websites covering the Egyptian Premier League. The best one I can recommend to you is Goalzz, since they actively cover the league standings, results and top goalscorers. KingFut used to cover all details about the local league but now they are just sticking to sharing news and updating the league table only. There is also another website called FilGoal which actively cover pretty much everything about the league, but it's in Arabic.
For the numbers of Achraf Bencharki, yes he did score 9 goals in 13 matches but that is in all competitions. As of 25 November 2019, Bencharki scored 1 goal in 3 league appearances with the club. Hopefully you found this helpful. Cheers, Ben5218 (talk) 12:31, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
Thanks a lot, Ben, that's very helpful to me! :-) I will check out goalzz, KingFut, and FilGoal. Soccerway seems to have the right number of league appearances for Bencharki then. Just three seemed unlikely. Robby.is.on (talk) 12:42, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
