Hi StrayBolt. As you can see, I've accepted your AfC submission. Thanks so much for creating this article. In future you do not need to go through the AfC process as you are an auto-confirmed editor. In fact, I recommend that you avoid it when writing on classical music subjects as the AfC reviewers are often unfamiliar with the notability criteria and the literature in this area. And last but not least, a very warm welcome to WikiProject Opera! Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 16:21, 23 May 2017 (UTC) Hi. Thankyou for your participation in the challenge series or/and contests. In November The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There will be over $4000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. If this would appeal to you and you think you'd be interested in contributing new articles on women during this month for your region or wherever please sign up in the participants section. The articles done may also count towards the ongoing challenge. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate and raise money to buy books about women for others to use, this is also fine. Help would also be appreciated in drawing up the lists of missing articles. If you think of any missing articles please add them to the sub lists by continent at Missing articles. Thankyou, and if taking part, good luck!♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:56, 5 October 2017 (UTC) ArbCom 2017 election voter messageHello, StrayBolt.

Please carefully read this information: The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here. Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Jeffery Erlanger requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

I'm having a hard time trying to understand from the text you've added exacted how Nemesis is allegedly going to render life on Earth extinct. Can you clarify somehow? This article is currently nominated to be a featured list (see here), so It's important right now that there isn't anything potentially confusing on it.

Invitation to participate in studyHello, I am E. Whittaker, I am working with Wikimedia’s Scoring Team to create a labeled dataset, and potentially a tool, to help editors deal with incivility when they encounter it on talk pages. A full write-up of the study can be found here: m:Research:Civil_Behavior_Interviews. We are currently recruiting editors to be interviewed about their experiences with incivility on talk pages. Would you be interested in being interviewed? I am contacting you because of your involvement in Wikipedia’s Women in Red project. The interviews should take ~1 hour, and will be conducted over BlueJeans (which does allow interviews to be recorded). If, so, please email me at ewhit@umich.edu in order to schedule an interview.

East St. Louis race riotsHi, you reverted my edit, saying that the race riots "included lynchings". How are you defining "lynchings" in this event? It is not a synonym for hangings. It was my understanding that usually lynchings refer to a mob killing an individual or a few specific persons, often one or more who had been accused of a crime or perceived offense. Sometimes the mob took persons who were suspects from custody of jails or courts, and operated outside the law in extrajudicial murders, sometimes held on the courthouse square. Other times they did not wait for the suspect to be taken to court. The race riot, by contrast, is a larger outbreak of violence, in which attackers direct their violence at any member of an ethnic group they see or find. Both are forms of racial terrorism but there is a distinction in most of the studies on these topics.Parkwells (talk) 15:06, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

--Megalibrarygirl (talk) 18:40, 14 October 2018 (UTC) via MassMessaging Stochastic TerrorismHi, I think the opening sentence for Stochastic Terrorism needs to reflect the fact that while the term Stochastic Terrorism started as an "obscure and non-legal" term from a well-meaning blogger who had not researched existing social science literature, it is very clear that the term has at least migrated into serious studies of terrorism and risk management. I think removing that description while keeping a reference to the Rolling Stone article would be a good change. Also, I think there should be at least a mention crediting the anonymous blogger for inventing the term. The blogger has posted some other statements explaining his idea.

--Megalibrarygirl (talk) 17:43, 22 May 2019 (UTC) via MassMessaging There has been an edit war going on at this article between two sets of socks. You have essentially reinstated the material of one of those sets. I don't think you're a sock, but I do think that the material is misplaced. It should be put in the body of the article, and a very brief summary in the lede. I'd rather not do it myself, as I have no interest in the article except from a policy standpoint. However, if you don't want to do it - and nothing commpels you to do so - I may undo your edit. That kind of detailed negative material simply does not belong in the lede of any article. Another option, if it's easier for you, is simply to create a new section for the material and not bother with a summary in the lede. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:50, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

--Innisfree987 (talk) 21:32, 24 October 2021 (UTC) via MassMessaging Gaslighting articleHi StrayBolt. I didn't want to revert your revert; thought it would be better to exchange thoughts. It appears to me that the "Chicks" naming of their album "Gaslighting" was as intended as a pejorative, a slur. I looked at the lyrics and the back story and the album is a vindictive rant aimed at her husband/ex-husband. If anything, the term is misused; one could argue that it validates misuse (i.e., slur) of the term. There is nothing in the references (or the lyrics) that would help anyone to better understand the meaning of the term. I used this metric to decide which examples should stay and which should be pulled. If we listed every pejorative or nonspecific mention of "gaslighting", the popular culture list would be endless/useless. Does this seem reasonable? Wiki-psyc (talk) 16:56, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

You have shown interest in articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

Clarification: As of 11 April 2022 access to yann.lecun.com does indeed require login, for some people.Greetings StrayBolt, The other day I made several changes to the MNIST_database article to flag the fact that the web site yann.lecun.com requires a visitor to log in. As I discussed (Bit rot necessitates some updating.) in the article's talk page; when I hit an URL on that site it asked me to login. I followed several links to that site and saw the same behavior. So the remarks I added to the article reflected my overly broad assumption that every visitor is asked to log in. It did not occur to me that others might still have ready access. You then reverted those changes, over broadly asserting that no log in is needed (for anyone). Thank you for checking. As I was pondering restoring those flags/remarks, reworded to clarify that only some people are asked to log in, I was reminded that I am not satisfied with the locations in which I had put them. Do you have any suggestions for a better place to add remarks that clarify that a particular link is no longer open (to everyone)? Do you know of a "standard" wikipedia practice for handling such a situation? And, finally, my original contribution regarding EMNIST was based on a misunderstanding. I have rewritten it accordingly. Please take a look. 2601:1C1:C100:9380:0:0:0:E052 (talk) 07:28, 13 April 2022 (UTC) A Nony Mouse

--Lajmmoore (talk) 17:36, 26 October 2022 (UTC) via MassMessaging WikiProject Weather: Map Dot & Template/Infobox ColorsDear project member, This message is being sent out to encourage new ideas and feedback on those proposed in regard to the colors debate for WikiProject Weather. For those who are unaware of what's been happening over the last year, I will give a brief summary. We have been discussing proposed changes to the colors of the dots on tropical cyclone maps and templates and infoboxes across the entire weather project in order to solve issues related to the limited contrast between colors for both normal vision as well as the various types of color blindness (MOS:ACCESS). We had partially implemented a proposal earlier this year, however, it was objected to by a number of people and additional issues were presented that made it evident this wasn't the optimal solution. We tried to come up with other solutions to address the issues related to color contrast, however, none of them gained traction and no consensus was generated. We need your help and I encourage you to propose your own scale and give feedback on those already listed. Keep in mind that we are NOT making a decision on any individual proposal at this time. We are simply allowing people to make proposals and cultivate them given feedback from other project members. Please visit our project page for additional details. The proposal phase will close no later than December 31st at 23:59 UTC. NoahTalk 04:24, 21 November 2022 (UTC) Women in Red in December 2022
