Some stroopwafels for you!
SCUM ManifestoHey Taylor, I reverted your addition to SCUM Manifesto, since that image is actually the cover of the obscure 1977 edition that Solanas self-published (not the original 1967 self-published edition). Due to the extreme obscurity of that edition, I'm not sure it's the best illustration for the article. Let me know if you find the 1967 edition though! Cheers! Kaldari (talk) 21:13, 24 June 2014 (UTC) Orphaned non-free image File:Valerie Solanas self-published 1967 SCUM Manifesto cover.jpg Thanks for uploading File:Valerie Solanas self-published 1967 SCUM Manifesto cover.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media). Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping. If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 13:32, 26 June 2014 (UTC) Question for administrator
In briefIs it possible to have the Wikipedia e-mail limit suspended or relaxed for the sake of conducting a survey of Wikipedia editors’ use of a particular archival source? Our studyMy name is Donald Taylor and I'm the Wikipedian-in-Residence with the University of Maryland Libraries, Historic Maryland Newspapers Project. The Historic Maryland Newspapers Project is a part of the National Digital Newspaper Program, a joint program of the Library of Congress and the National Endowment for the Humanities. We are digitizing historic state newspapers for inclusion in the Library of Congress's Chronicling America online digital collection of America’s historical newspapers. We are conducting a study to identify ways that Chronicling America might be made a better resource for people editing Wikipedia. One part of our study is a survey of Wikipedia editors who have cited Chronicling America in their contributions to Wikipedia. We have identified 590 such editors and would like to send them a request to take our survey via the e-mail tool available from the left-hand column of the User page. The e-mail tool is preferable to posting on users’ talk page as the message includes the URL for the survey and we would like to restrict the survey to the select, relevant editors, rather than have the survey URL posted in a public place. The problem in detailAn intern and I have been sending out survey invitations, but Wikipedia’s spam prevention policy limits us to only sending nine e-mails per 24-hour period before we get the “Action throttled” notice. The notice reads “As an anti-spam measure, you are limited from performing this action too many times in a short space of time, and you have exceeded this limit. Please try again in a few minutes”, but in fact the waiting period is 24 hours. At this rate it will take us a month just to distribute the survey. Is it possible to have the e-mail limit lifted for myself and User:DC_Elliott for a few days until we have completely distributed our survey? JustificationWe believe this to be an acceptable use of Wikipedia’s functionality for the following reasons:
I could provide you with further details of our study (including the full list of questions) if you would like. Thank you for your attention in this matter. -- Taylordw (talk) 15:45, 23 July 2014 (UTC) Ronhjones response
Further clarification of question
Thank you User:Ronhjones. Wikipedia:Mass message senders is for people wanting to mass-post to users' talk pages. I would like to avoid the User:Talk page solution if at all possible because I would prefer that the message be private in order that the link to the survey not be widely publicized so that the potential respondent pool can be limited to just the list of users meeting the study criteria. Is there a group that I can be added to (temporarily) that would allow me exemption from the e-mail throttle rule? If there is no other solution, I can go with User:Talk pages; I want to make sure that there is no other alternative first. Taylordw (talk) 14:18, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
