Deletion discussion about Ayqa Khan[edit]

Hello, Dnllnd,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Ayqa Khan should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ayqa Khan .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Account creator granted[edit]

After reviewing your request for the "accountcreator" permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things:

  • The account creator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
  • The account creator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the account creator right will result in its removal by an administrator.

If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the account creator right. Happy editing! — xaosflux Talk 18:36, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for the update. I will be sure to check out the main page text.--Dnllnd (talk) 16:33, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
