Your submission of El Laco at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Yoninah (talk) 20:40, 13 June 2016 (UTC) Incapillo
1) In the second paragraph in the section Incapillo#Local, you use the word "shallow" as a verb:
This is followed by the gerund form (-ing form used as a noun), "shallowing". I could guess what the verb means, but I think a reader shouldn't have to guess. Can you link this to another article or section of an article so a reader can read more to understand the term? 2) In the third paragraph in the Incapillo#History section, you have several ranges. When you use "from", I'm pretty sure it should be followed by "to": from X to Y. If you don't want to use those two words, then you can use an en-dash, but I believe it should be without "from". Let me know which you prefer and I can change it. Jonesey95 Would you use an en-dash in a number range following the word "from", or would you use only either "from X to Y" or just "X–"Y (without "from")? I read MOS regarding number formatting carefully and could only find discussion of from...to regarding date ranges. – Corinne (talk) 04:12, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

RfAThere seems incredibly strong support on the optional poll that you should be an administrator. If you are up for it, I can start the nomination form. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 07:25, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
Okay. I have put together a draft RfA at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Jo-Jo Eumerus. As you probably know, you'll need to answer the three stock questions presented there. Questions 1 and 2 should be fairly straightforward, for Question 3 I found being honest without going into details was the best answer (indeed, anyone who writes "I haven't had any conflicts" automatically makes me think of opposing). I personally would like a co-nominator to sign off on this, so that the voting public can judge your suitability from two independent views. MelanieN (who passed RfA with about 97% support) has said she's happy to put something together. Once we have everything in place, and all the statements and answers have been double-checked, I will transclude it, at which point the RfA will become advertised to everyone. The other advice I can give you now for RfA is once it is live, you only need to check it about once a day for questions, and I think a 24-hour turnaround on those is acceptable. I typed up my answers in batches every day, and then read the question and answer aloud to my other half, made a few changes, and then posted them. You will get questions on copyright, and be expected to answer them accurately, or perhaps to say "I don't know, it depends / expert opinions differ". Don't look at the voting sections, if an oppose vote is duff, there will be plenty of people supplying counter-arguments without you needing to lift a finger. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:24, 27 June 2016 (UTC) Hello, Jo-Jo! We haven't "met", but I have looked you over pretty thoroughly at Ritchie's suggestion, and I will be happy to co-nominate you when/as/if you decide to go for it. I certainly agree with Ritchie's advice to draft your answers offline, and review them carefully before posting them. I would add to Ritchie's comment about timing, that you should choose your time to transclude the nomination; pick a time period when you can be reliably available to respond to it every day for seven days. And maybe respond more than once on the first day; some people get impatient if early questions are not answered promptly. I believe the usual tradition is that the nominator (Ritchie) creates the nomination page, and the candidate (you) transclude it when you are ready, but I have also seen it transcluded by the nominator. One other thought: you do not have email enabled right now. Some people like to see that in administrators, but it's not a requirement so that's your choice. But I have found it is really helpful if you can communicate with your nominators by email, both before and during the RFA process. So if you prefer not to make your email publicly available, you might send emails to me and Ritchie, so that we can establish communication that way. --MelanieN (talk) 17:27, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
All right, you are off and running! While the RfA is running, you must not notify any individuals that you are running, that would be canvassing. But you can add this template to your userpage or talkpage if you wish: {{RfA-notice}} (filling in your own name where appropriate). --MelanieN (talk) 14:34, 28 June 2016 (UTC) Your GA nomination of IrruputuncuThe article Irruputuncu you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Irruputuncu for comments about the article.

(talk) 13:58, 30 June 2016 (UTC) Exeter City FC.svgHi, I reverted my changes to the Exeter City crest because I had changed it to a more accurate version without understanding how the copyright rules work on Wikipedia. I am slightly confused because the template stating that previous versions violated copyright rules was added before I reverted the file back to the original version uploaded in 2012. Also, would it be alright for me to upload a low-resolution raster image of the crest and have that used on the club's Wikipedia page instead of the svg version? Thanks, GarethTJennings (talk) 17:10, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Sara Juli imageHello Jo-Jo, I see from the recent admin proposals that you know your way around potential file copyright issues. I, however, haven't got a clue, but think that an image on Sara Juli may be a copy from the article's subject's own. E.g. http://bellyflopmag.com/reviews/sara-juli-the-money-conversation says that the image is Sara Juli's. What, if anything, could I do to see if it is copyrighted?
