{{Climate chart}} editThis edit does not actually change the width of the template. If you can actually provide evidence that the previous version changes the width of the template on purged instances of the template then I will be happy to correct this. If you cannot, then I would suggest that in future you consult editors with more experience of templatespace before reverting in future.

List of Countries by Unemploment RateCIA's world factbook is out of date by a huge margin. Even United States Unemployment rates are given as that of 2008 although the Fed updates it every month. I suggest we use the latest statistical updates by every country's Central Bank rather than relying on another encyclopedia source which is much behind wikipedia. Wikipedia does not need to dependent upon World Factbook for its content. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ankitsingh83 (talk • contribs) 14:24, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

WP:DYK 14:14, 10 August 2009 (UTC) Dorset needs YOU!
 Since you are listed under Wikipedians in Dorset, I am hoping you may be interested in saving the article on Dorset. The article was promoted to featured status in 2005, when the standards for FA were not as strict, and therefore it is soon to be reviewed once again. Currently the article, if only for lack of references, would fail to pass the Featured article review.
Your help, however much, will be vital in keeping this important article at FA. At WikiProject Dorset, the WP devoted to Dorset-related articles, we will be helping to organise restoration of the article. As well, there will be discussion on Dorset's talk page. If you know anyone else who may be interested in helping, contact them and/or copy this into their talk page. Please, do get involved!

Wikiproject: Did you know? 08:14, 13 August 2009 (UTC) United Kingdom foreign-born population by country of birth mapHi. I've spotted a problem with a map you created. On File:United Kingdom foreign born population by country of birth.png, the lowest population category on the key represents groups with fewer than 19,999 members, but the source only gives figures for countries of birth with 21,000 members or more. That means that any country of birth not in the source has a group size of fewer than 21,000, not fewer than 19,999 as the map suggests. Do you think you could fix this? Also, I thought you might want to know that someone appears to be using your map to promote the BNP on YouTube (see here). I'm not sure if there's any way to stop them from using it, but I wouldn't be too happy myself. Cordless Larry (talk) 12:59, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

DYK for al-AzharResponded, the diff you cite was when it was in my userspace. Prior to being moved the original article was a redirect. The DYK criteria says that it does not matter how long it takes to develop in userspace. This was effectively a new article made on the 29th. nableezy - 02:02, 1 November 2009 (UTC) DYK for KKKThe templete for the latest nomination for History of Ku Klux Klan in New Jersey showed you as the nominator. As I was attempting to verify the hook and promote your ALT1, It showed an edit conflict with you approving the hook. I would just suggest refraining from verifing a hook in which you nominated. This just give the opportunity for a second set of eyes. Also wanted to stop by and thank you for your help over at DYK. Thanks again Calmer Waters 18:32, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
DYK Queue updateOK, I updated from the prep areas. Now, what do I do about the credits? I wouldn't want to lose them (I would remember how to do them from the pre-bot days, but the fact is that since the bot was created I haven't had to do that, so I'm out of practice). Daniel Case (talk) 23:49, 1 November 2009 (UTC) Alright, I got it. I added the {{DYKbotdo}} already, which is what you seem to be talking about. Daniel Case (talk) 00:03, 2 November 2009 (UTC) Wow.

Just one minor point - standard length of a DYK update ATM is 8 hooks, I notice that you've done a couple with only 7. Please try to stick to the standard length as it helps with project co-ordination and prevents a backlog from forming.

CSD nom of File:Flood bridge.jpg
RE: FloodingAs well as the reasons I posted on the talk page of the article, they are separate land masses. Someone navigating to the article will either be particularly interested in one or the other (Ireland or the United Kingdom), so it makes sense for them to appear as separate sections in the contents. In a sense, I do feel they should be separate articles, but there is not enough to create one, and there likely will never be. If you can provide any reasoning as to why 'chronological ordering makes more sense surely' (sic), then please do. Thanks, Vivara (talk) 22:30, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

-- tariqabjotu 11:40, 1 March 2010 (UTC) Voting intention graphHi, I've just noticed that the United Kingdom general election, 2010 article says that your voting intentions graph is from Ipsos MORI's data, but it looks like it's a collection of data from all pollsters: ComRes' rogue poll from May 2009 sticks out like a sore thumb. I'm not sure quite how legitimate it is to do this, as a good deal of the variations will be from differences in polling methodology, rather than any legitimate changes in opinion. It is a nice graph, though; might I suggest that you either choose one pollster and stick to it, or use a moving average to smooth out the discrepancies? —Wereon (talk) 00:11, 10 March 2010 (UTC) Hey there!!

As Hassocks said, you don't need to be an admin to--Musiceditor123 (talk) 18:37, 20 June 2010 (UTC) review hooks, anyone can review hooks and anyone can move hooks to Next update (you have to be an admin to move hooks from Next to the official queue, but just because the official queue is protected indefinitely). I started working at DYK just about a month ago, in pretty much the same way as you; I found out about DYK and nominated one of my articles, and got frustrated about the amount of time it was taking anyone to review it so I started reviewing all the ones that were ahead of it in line. There are a lot of rules to keep in mind, but you learn pretty quickly by doing, and I would guess that at least half of the most active DYK reviewers right now have started at around the same time as me or even more recently (Orlady, How do you turn this on, Davidwr, and some others), so it doesn't take long at all to get the hang of things and to become a big part of DYK. You'll get used to things quickly, but just for a quick intro if you haven't figured this out already, with each no you generally just need to check the length of the hook (less than 200 characters), the length or expansion of the article (at least 1500 characters readable text, and expanded 5x if it's not a new article), the date of creation/expansion (within the past 5 days), whether there's an inline citation for the fact in the hook, and general goodness/badness of the article (there aren't a lot of specific rules on that, but if an article just sucks for some reason you can mention it at the DYK page and say you won't pass it until it gets cleaned up). I like to use this JavaScript to count hook lengths (although after you do a couple hundred of them you can pretty much eyeball whether or not they're too long), and this tool for counting article length. Thanks again for helping out, and let me or someone else at DYK know if you have any questions! —Politizer talk/contribs 01:11, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

RemovalHi. The edits were from one of several copycat accounts of a longtime hard-banned user, User:JarlaxleArtemis. Some time ago, this user created a new persona named "Grawp" after the Harry Potter character and has posted instructions on how to disrupt this site at Encyclopedia Dramatica. These don't pop up often anymore, but when they do, the edit summaries are full of insults toward admins who have come up against these attack in the past. the attack against me referred to my long-ago username, since abandoned per my own choice in good standing. Somehow, these kids feel that calling me by that username is an insult when it clearly is not. A CU just turned up about seven more socks from the same user, all with the same taunts and insults. As such, I feel it's warranted to block the insults and not feed this troll and others who will certainly come here to gloat. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 15:30, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
