Autopatrolled right
[edit]Greetings Dr. Hussain. I notice that you're eligible to have your account marked as autopatrolled. This means that your articles get automatically marked as reviewed, without needing manual patrol. As I can tell that you know what you’re doing, would you be happy to be nominated for this flag? I’m keen to reduce the number of valid articles that new page reviewers need to check.
You can nominate yourself if you want or I’d be very happy to do it for you. Blythwood (talk) 12:04, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
- Dear Blythwood,
- Thank you for suggesting me for autopatrol permissions. I care about reducing the burden on volunteer editors, so it is a good idea for me to keep the flag and not make the page reviewers do additional checking. Please nominate me, and I shall be happy to supplement the nomination with more details if necessary. -- Netha (talk) 12:15, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
- Dear Blythwood,
Autopatrolled granted
[edit]Hi Netha Hussain, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! — xaosflux Talk 13:57, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

Article I told you about for translation into Malayalam
[edit]Netha,
Per our F2F discussion in Cape Town earlier this week (seems like a lot more time than that after an epic flight home, no?) the article in question I was relating to you is Disappearance of Sneha Anne Philip. Since she and her family were from Kerala I think an mlwiki article is certainly warranted ... I saw the case got coverage in the English-language media there. Daniel Case (talk) 19:42, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you Daniel, for reaching out to me. I had looked up this article the same night we had the conversation, and I will create an ml version for this page. --Netha (talk) 06:55, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

Paola Velardi: Are there the pre-requisites to remove the maintenance template?
[edit]Dear Netha,
I hope everything is great with you. My name is Ilaria and I had the pleasure to meet you during the Chalmers WikiGap in August. You are an inspiration for me. Busy as every PhD student, yet you manage to carve the time out for telling stories of great women. Your help throughout my first wikipage, dedicated to Professor Paola Velardi, was key. Thank you very much for that. I got in touch with Paola herself. She said that she was honored to appear in Wikipedia.
In October, I got a maintenance template from the user JJMC89, inviting me for increased additional citations for verification. This maintenance template applied to three sections of the page. Moreover, the picture that I got from Paola herself and that I put on her page, was removed by Hullabaloo Wolfowitz, whom categorized it as non-free. I still do not get why an image that she gave herself to me is non free.
Coming back to the maintenance issue: I asked Paola to give me more references to validate each and every information possible. As I am an inexperienced editor, unfortunately this caused duplicates. Anyway, I worked on this promptly, and I reckon that I managed to increase the accuracy of the page significantly. I asked JJMC89 to consider removing the maintenance templates in early November, by writing to him in his talk page. No answer yet, which is disappointing.
Can you please help me? Paola actually put the link to her Wikipedia page in different applications (projects and awards). Of course, it is not nice for her to have her page deemed unreliable.
If you have the right to remove the maintenance template, and you find the information well documented, can you please remove it for me? If you do not have this right, can you please help me find another person who can have a look at the page and act on it promptly?
Thanks a lot, Best wishes Ilaria
What's Next (WAM)!
[edit]Congratulations! The Wikipedia Asian Month has ended successfully and you've done amazing work of organizing. What we've got and what's next?

Wikipedia:WikiProject Art and Medicine
[edit]Hi Netha Hussain! I noticed you started the page Wikipedia:WikiProject Art and Medicine last year. It doesn't look like it every truly became a WikiProject (it seems to be your personal page, and not a place where editors collaborate on a topic). Any objection to me moving it to your userspace for the time being? You're more than welcome to propose its re-creation as a WikiProject anytime (and you may find that a better way to gather similar-minded editors). I hope all is well. Happy editing!
