Wiki Loves Pride 2014Hi Leah. In case you are not aware, there is an upcoming campaign to improve coverage of LGBT-related topics on Wikipedia, culminating with an international edit-a-thon on June 21. See Wiki Loves Pride 2014 for more information. If you are interested, you might consider creating a page for a major city (or cities!) near you, with a list of LGBT-related articles that need to be created or improved. This would be a tremendous help to Wikipedia and coverage of LGBT culture and history. Thanks for your consideration, and please let me know if you have any questions! --Another Believer (Talk) 16:21, 9 May 2014 (UTC) David ReeceHi! I noticed the "multiple issues" tag on the article about David Reece. I'd like to improve the article, but I don't understand what the issues are. There's another tag that the lead section may not summarize the subject well - I'm not so sure about that, as I think Reece's main claim to fame is his stint with Accept, so there's not much more to say in the lead section. If you could please give me some directions about the article's weaknesses (apart from its brevity), I'll get to work on it. Also, I'd appreciate your view on whether the lead section tag should be removed.--Odd M. Nilsen (talk) 21:35, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi all- I'm homeI'll have to take this slowly for the next couple of weeks, but I'm staying in my father's home until I'm more stabilized and everything in my body doesn't hurt just from standing or sitting! So much has changed since I've been gone; rules that relate to what I do so I'm going to have plenty of questions for some of you! Thanks so much. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 21:23, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
Dear Leah Two Saints, You give my life greater meaning. Thank you. I am proud to know you. It is good to read your words. You have such a huge capacity for kindness. Some people like to say they are "sending you positive vibrations" and I want to say that too. All the best at all times.

We noticed though that when you edited Peter Tork, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Acoustic. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author used. In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. Mlpearc (open channel) 18:02, 23 October 2014 (UTC) October 2014

Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:01, 4 January 2015 (UTC) Advice on uploading photos into Commons, please.Dear Leah, I can see you're contributing today and I am therefore hoping, for your sake, that it means you are presently in good health. And since we've never communicated before: I am very pleased to meet you! The purpose of this message is to ask for your assistance, if and when convenient, about the process of uploading photos into Wikimedia Commons, please Leah. I read your user page and it encouraged me to ask you for such assistance, as I find it really difficult to understand how to navigate the Wiki's processes and copyright rules in order to upload a photo successfully. Specifically, an acquaintance of mine has the copyright to photos of a notable musician who already has an article on Wikipedia; and she would like to add at least one photo there. However, she is not a Wikipedian and I have never uploaded a single photo into Commons (and, in any case, I couldn't do it on her behalf since I don't own the copyright myself and would therefore fall foul of the 'copyright patrollers'). So, I thought of asking you if you would be kind enough to outline a step-by-step procedure to enable her (as a novice Wikipedian who owns the copyright to the photos) to upload at least one photo into Commons. Once that first photo is in Commons, then I would be able to pull it off and into the article. If the process is easy enough for her, then she might consider adding more photos. Thank you for letting me know if we could count on your intellectual support for this small-scale effort. I'd like to think that, with clear and precise step-by-step instructions from an expert such as yourself, we should be able to upload our first photo with greater confidence. And, of course, once we've learnt from uploading our first photo, we'd soon be self-sufficient. On the other hand, if you are very busy and don't have any time to spare at the moment, then I'd quite understand and wouldn't wish to intrude any further. Thank you in advance for your consideration, Leah, and for letting me know at your best convenience. HelloLeah, I hope you are doing good! Kind regards, Miss Bono [hello, hello!] 19:15, 2 April 2015 (UTC) Van Morrison songI might have been buzzing through the disambig. page for the Van Morrison/Robbie Robertson song, "Caravan", seen here: Caravan (Van Morrison song) which they played during the filmed final concert "The Last Waltz" - if it's just my need for glasses please forgive me. Hopefully I'll have a computer soon. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 11:10, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

In IrfanView, the free image editor I use (along with its plugin pack), I go to the edit menu, and then "show paint dialog". Then I click on the clone tool (2nd row down, right side). I right click an area with the background color I want to use. Then I left click and drag over the stuff I want to remove. You have to play with it a few times, and then it is easier to use. You can close (X on the top right) the paint dialog box, and then relaunch the paint dialog, if necessary. I often have to right click the background color again to get it to work right. It's weird how 2 circles show up. But it works. You can always close and reopen the image if you make a mistake. Then start over. When successful, save the image. At the bottom of the paint dialog box you can set the width of the circle numerically in pixels. Or according to help: "Hold down the shift key, and scroll with the mouse-wheel to adjust the width of the clone brush.". A smaller diameter can help a lot in some situations. Open up help from the help menu. Then look for "paint" in the index, or "clone" in help search. The clone tool info is on the help page for paint. For removing stuff that does not have a solid color background there are tools here: commons:Help:Removing watermarks. --Timeshifter (talk) 20:02, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
Hi Leah, good hearing from you again. I'd ask how you're doing, but that's probably an insensitive question to ask compared to all you're going through, though I do hope you're alright. About the Stone Coyotes discography page, I see no links there, except for record labels, so that article would even be moot to work on, since with no links, it really should not even be an article. Sorry. Well, keep in touch! Lots of hugs, --Discographer (talk) 16:53, 2 October 2015 (UTC) Rock artist writerHi, I am writing several projects for MusiCares and found your page in search of images. Are you Leah Mendoza? I dropped off a few books to Marco one of my music co-writers a while back and am looking for others who may be interested in adding to the project. I noticed your name and then looked around at your downloads. I have been submitting to some of the people over at the Grammy Foundation and other artists as well to get the word around and create a buzz. Interested in joining me?

Someone edited the article to say he has six children - apparently there are some incorrect sources out there - the fact seems to be that he has five, plus there was a sixth, a son, who died in infancy. I changed the page to reflect that, but unfortunately the source I found is a dead link to Mountain of Light, Could you see if you can find a good one if you have a chance?

The purpose of the campaign is to create and improve content related to LGBT culture and history. How can you help?
Looking for topics? The Tasks page, which you are welcome to update, offers some ideas and wanted articles. This campaign is supported by the Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group, an officially recognized affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation. The group's mission is to develop LGBT-related content across all Wikimedia projects, in all languages. Visit the affiliate's page at Meta-Wiki for more information, or follow Wikimedia LGBT+ on Facebook. Remember, Wiki Loves Pride is about creating and improving LGBT-related content at Wikimedia projects, and content should have a neutral point of view. One does not need to identify as LGBT or any other gender or sexual minority to participate. This campaign is about adding accurate, reliable information to Wikipedia, plain and simple, and all are welcome! If you have any questions, please leave a message on the campaign's talk page. Thanks, and happy editing! ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:17, 30 May 2016 (UTC) Reference errors on 29 June

Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:25, 30 June 2016 (UTC) Lisa FischerI take note that that you have reverted an edit I did to an article about Lisa Fischer. My edit about two months ago added two photographs of the artists, both depicting her at a recent concert. The first photograph was a close-up, showing her entire face and it displays the likeness, personality, and the mood of the person. The second photographs showed her from the behind, among the engaged concert crowd. Both photographs were sharp and of high quality. After your reversion the article has fewer images illustrating the article, and I would argue that you cannot make out the person from any of the photographs in the article. I would argue that the article is poorer the way you have edited it now. What are the criteria you have gone by when you have reverted the article? Toresetre (talk) 00:33, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

It looks like the editor is still editing: Special:Contributions/Catfish Jim and the soapdish. That is the "User contributions" link found in the left sidebar of any user page, user talk page, or user sub-page. It is in the tools section of the left sidebar. I have checked it now and then on your user pages to see when you were around. :) --Timeshifter (talk) 11:23, 29 November 2016 (UTC) Getting picturesI don't understand why it is so difficult to get photos for Wikipedia. Wouldn't a celebrity or someone who wants to be a celebrity, which is apparently everyone, want their photo in Wikipedia? Wouldn't a musician who is unknown want their picture on Wikipedia? I've read so many entries that are like resumes, by people who think Wikipedia is free advertising and a way for them to promote themselves. I would have thought some of these people would be eager to donate a photo of themselves. What photographer, for that matter, wouldn't want to have his work on Wikipedia, possibly to be seen by a large audience? Now that really is free advertising. How is it done? How does one get a musician of whatever fame or talent to give up one photo of themselves? What's the problem? What is it so difficult? You mentioned some of the process on your user page. Happy Holidays!
Vinnie ColaiutaHow often does he play with John Mayer? He's not listed on the John Mayer Trio page as a regular. My understanding is that the associated acts field is for groups the person is a member of, has been a member of, or musicians the person has spent years with, recording and touring multiple times.
Season's Greetings
A barnstar for you!
