Kharat surname AFDAs you participated in WP:Articles for deletion/Kharat surname, I thought you'd like to know that I've opened WP:Articles for deletion/Kharat surname (2nd nomination). Note: this message is being posted on the talk page of all participants in the first AFD so as to avoid the appearance of canvassing. Dori ☾Talk ⁘ Contribs☽ 11:00, 13 February 2012 (UTC) Disambiguation link notificationHi. When you recently edited Lilliput Lane, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Miniature (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

I'm dropping you a note because you filled out the New Page Patrol survey, and indicated you'd be interested in being contacted about follow-up work. This is to notify you that we've finally released both the initial documentation about the project and also the engagement strategy, which sets out how we plan to work with the community on this. Please give both a read, and leave any comments or suggestions you have on the talkpage, on my talkpage, or in my inbox - okeyes It's awesome to finally get to start work on this! :). Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 02:36, 3 March 2012 (UTC) Speedy deletion declined: Leonard RosomanHello Osarius. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Leonard Rosoman, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The Guardian obituary had plenty of evidence to support notability when the A7 was raised. Thank you. Fæ (talk) 13:03, 4 March 2012 (UTC) Formatting mdashs using Advisor.jsHi. Just to make you aware that on the two recent occasions when you used this bot on United Kingdom you changed the title of pictures and rendered them redlinks.--SabreBD (talk) 19:18, 7 March 2012 (UTC) Page Triage newsletterHey guys! Thanks to all of you who have commented on the New Page Triage talkpage. If you haven't had a chance yet, check it out; we're discussing some pretty interesting ideas, both from the Foundation and the community, and moving towards implementing quite a few of them :). In addition, on Tuesday 13th March, we're holding an office hours session in #wikimedia-office on IRC at 19:00 UTC (11am Pacific time). If you can make it, please do; we'll have a lot of stuff to show you and talk about, including (hopefully) a timetable of when we're planning to do what. If you can't come, for whatever reason, let me know on my talkpage and I'm happy to send you the logs so you can get an idea of what happened :). Regards, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 23:51, 8 March 2012 (UTC) Would you care to open a discussion on the talk page about the perceived COI? Jezhotwells (talk) 00:32, 13 March 2012 (UTC) New Page Triage newsletterHey all! Thanks to everyone who attended our first office hours session; the logs can be found here, if you missed it, and we should be holding a second one on Thursday, 22 March 2012 at 18:00 UTC in #wikimedia-office. I hope to see you all there :). In the meantime, I have greatly expanded the details available at Wikipedia:New Page Triage: there's a lot more info about precisely what we're planning. If you have ideas, and they aren't listed there, bring them up and I'll pass them on to the developers for consideration in the second sprint. And if you know anyone who might be interested in contributing, send them there too! Regards, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 00:21, 14 March 2012 (UTC) Speedy deletion of ERDAS APOLLO page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ERDAS_APOLLO)Hi, I have been trying to create an appropriate page for ERDAS APOLLO. To do this, I used existing wikipedia pages from similar products as an example. The descriptions on some of those pages go into a lot more detail about those products, such as naming, pricing, functionality, etc. Examples: AutoCAD, ArcGIS Server, ArcGIS Explorer, SOCET SET, ERDAS IMAGINE. I feel like I really pared it down to basic information that is so much less than these sites describe, yet my page is still being deleted as "blatant advertising". Can you please tell me what I need to do to get my page up there without being deleted? Thanks Keith134 (talk) 18:24, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
Chat with AnonHello from Paris, For the moment I'm a little lost reading your message. My english is not as perfect as I wish but I keep on learning. I really don't understand all the Wikipedia rules... ... So could you help me to find the right way to avoid to be deleted. Thank you very much in advance. Kind regards. Cool-morning-lights — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.247.9.200 (talk) 20:05, 16 March 2012 (UTC) ya that was kind of violation to 'assuming good faith' but was a warning message only. I have removed it to put another message. Jpmeena (talk) 06:59, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
Struan DouglasI've declined speedy on the grounds of him being capped for Scotland, but have tagged it as a mess. I've given some advice to the author, and I think he could do with some more help. Peridon (talk) 15:11, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!Thanks! Moved to here. help triage some feedbackHey guys. I appreciate this isn't quite what you signed up for, but I figured as people who are already pretty good at evaluating whether material is useful or not useful through Special:NewPages, you might be interested :). Over the last few months we've been developing the new Article Feedback Tool, which features a free text box. it is imperative that we work out in advance what proportion of feedback is useful or not so we can adjust the design accordingly and not overwhelm you with nonsense. This is being done through the Feedback Evaluation System (FES), a tool that lets editors run through a stream of comments, selecting their value and viability, so we know what type of design should be promoted or avoided. We're about to start a new round of evaluations, beginning with an office hours session tomorrow at 18:00 UTC. If you'd like to help preemptively kill poor feedback, come along to #wikimedia-office and we'll show you how to use the tool. If you can't make it, send me an email at okeyes All the best, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 21:34, 20 March 2012 (UTC) Hi, I saw you welcomed 173.231.157.74 with a vandal-fighting message although the user has no history of doing so. Was this a mistake? --GouramiWatcher (Gulp) 12:39, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
AACI have requested an account on the AAC account creation interface. This message is to prove this fact. Osarius Talk 13:23, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
A big NPT updateHey! Big update on what the developers have been working on, and what is coming up: coding
All other elements are either undergoing research, or about to have development started. I appreciate this sounds like we've not got through much work, and truthfully we're a bit disappointed with it as well; we thought we'd be going at a faster pace :(. Unfortunately there seems to be some 24-72 hour bug sweeping the San Francisco office at the moment, and at one time or another we've had several devs out of it. It's kind of messed with workflow. Stuff to look at We've got a pair of new mockups to comment on that deal with the filtering mechanism; this is a slightly updated mockup of the list view, and this is what the filtering tab is going to look like. All thoughts, comments and suggestions welcome on the NPT talkpage :). I'd also like to thank the people who came to our last two office hours sessions; the logs will be shortly available here. I've also just heard that the first functional prototype for enwiki will be deployed mid-April! Really, really stoked to see this happening :). We're finding out if we can stick something up a bit sooner on prototype.wiki or something. I appreciate there may be questions or suggestions where I've said "I'll find out and get back to you" and then, uh. not ;p. I sincerely apologise for that: things have been a bit hectic at this end over the last few weeks. But if you've got anything I've missed, drop me a line and I'll deal with it! Further questions or issues to the usual address. Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 17:07, 3 April 2012 (UTC) Speedy deletion declined: Alexander AndryushkinHello Osarius. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Alexander Andryushkin, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: "He is regarded as one of the best Russian drummers." is an assertion of importance, sufficient that A7 is not appropriate . Thank you. ϢereSpielChequers 15:02, 6 April 2012 (UTC) May I ask, why the over-zealous warning? From what I can tell the user created an article in the Main Space which was a clearly non-notable essay, possibly could be interpreted as an attack page, but was by no means vandalism. Is there something I'm missing? -RunningOnBrains(talk) 00:09, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
