Nice work!Good evening: great job on wikifying the Rachel Carson NWR article! That was quite a task. I had planned on taking a crack at it at some point, but I always get sidetracked with other projects. Well done! –BMRR (talk) 00:55, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Invitation to take part in a studyI am a Wikipedian, who is studying the phenomenon on Wikipedia. I need your help to conduct my research on about understanding "Motivation of Wikipedia contributors." I would like to invite you to Main Study. Please give me your valuable time, which estimates about 20 minutes. I chose you as a English Wikipedia user who made edits recently through the RecentChange page.

Wikification driveHi Gobonobo, just wanted to say good luck during the "competition"! Maybe between the two of us we will get rid of the backlog completely. Well, that's a stretch, but we are certainly making a dent! Great job with all your work, my friend. --Fang Aili talk 22:42, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Emperor of Exmoor.jpg
A tag has been placed on File:Emperor of Exmoor.jpg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time. If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ( WikiProject Wikify's April 2011 Backlog Elimination Drive awards!

Mega coolness!Hey, how did you do those reflinks so fast on the Racehorse injuries article? I read the reflinks WP article, but it's total gibberish to me. All I know is that to do 71 refs in just a few minutes was an automated method, and I'd LOVE to not have to do ref work manually. However, I'm not great at programming stuff, and I run a Mac with Safari, so not sure some tools work. Any help in plain English would be much valued! Montanabw(talk) 22:24, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Completely new abortion proposal and mediationIn light of the seemingly endless disputes over their respective titles, a neutral mediator has crafted a proposal to rename the two major abortion articles (pro-life/anti-abortion movement, and pro-choice/abortion rights movement) to completely new names. The idea, which is located here, is currently open for opinions. As you have been a contributor in the past to at least one of the articles, your thoughts on the matter would be appreciated. The hope is that, if a consensus can be reached on the article titles, the energy that has been spent debating the titles of the articles here and here can be better spent giving both articles some much needed improvement to their content. Please take some time to read the proposal and weigh in on the matter. Even if your opinion is simple indifference, that opinion would be valuable to have posted. To avoid accusations that this posting violates WP:CANVASS, this posting is being made to every non-anon editor who has edited either page since 1 July 2010, irrespective of possible previous participation at the mediation page.
