Thanks for uploading File:DDR Winx Club 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. --B-bot (talk) 02:19, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick response. I either missed that instruction or it is missing from help. Would certainly help if you could add it to help page. I've made a copy of your response and put it in several places so I won't have to ask again. You saved me a ton of work by not having to re-create the book.

Super hamster,
Any idea what happened here and how I fix: Generation of the document file has failed. Status: Rendering process died with non zero code: 1 Return to Special:Book
My book has 34 topics and I am sure several hundred pages long.

Hi! Thanks again for accepting my draft for XenMobile last week. I was hoping you might have a few moments to help me address the orphan tag on the article. I found two places to link to the entry.
The first is the main Citrix Systems article. XenMobile can be linked in either:
The second is in the HP Networking entry, which mentions XenMobile in the third paragraph of the Mobility/BYOD/WLAN section.
While I realize these are pretty minor, uncontroversial edits, I'm a stickler about not making any edits myself because of my COI. Would you be able to create these links? Thanks! Heatherer (talk) 17:58, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

. Just replace "FILENAME" with the name of the file, and "CAPTION" with the image caption.You tagged File:Quarterbacks_Angela_Rypien_and_Mark_Rypien.png with a ((di-replaceable fair use)) I left a ((di-replaceable fair use disputed)).
I also tagged the instances where the image was used: [1], [2] -- a step I think you forgot.

The finals for the 2015 Wikicup has now begun! Congrats to the 8 contestants who have survived to the finals, and well done and thanks to everyone who took part in rounds 3 and 4.
In round 3, we had a three-way tie for qualification among the wildcard contestants, so we had 34 competitors. The leader was by far Casliber (submissions) in Group B, who earned 1496 points. Although 913 of these points were bonus points, he submitted 15 articles in the DYK category. Second place overall was Coemgenus (submissions) at 864 points, who although submitted just 2 FAs for 400 points, earned double that amount for those articles in bonus points. Everyone who moved forward to Round 4 earned at least 100 points.
The scores required to move onto the semifinals were impressive; the lowest scorer to move onto the finals was 407, making this year's Wikicup as competitive as it's always been. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:
The intense competition between RO and Calvin999 will continue into the finals. They're both eligible for the Newcomers Trophy, given for the first time in the Wikicup; whoever makes the most points will win it.
Good luck to the finalists; the judges are sure that the competition will be fierce!

Hello SuperHamster -- I found your message just now. Thank you for your word of welcome -- I am trying to get my bearings, working my way through a jungle of links containing directions and rules and admonishments and definitions. Initially I just wanted to add some information to my later father's Wiki page, but I now gather that this is no child's play, haha. Mabel Amber (talk) 21:59, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
Honestly, I would never ever have thought of scrolling ALL the way down to the bottom of that very long page, never. I don't think I can ever accomplish anything on this website.

Hey, I added myself as a volunteer for your fall course. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help, as this sounds pretty darn cool. Makes me wish that I was an Ohio State student, to have a Wikipedia-themed student organization nearby.

WikiCup 2015 is now in the books! Congrats to our finalists and winners, and to everyone who took part in this year's competition.
This year's results were an exact replica of last year's competition. For the second year in a row, the 2015 WikiCup champion is Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points). All of his points were earned for an impressive 253 featured pictures and their associated bonus points (5060 and 1695, respectively). His entries constituted scans of currency from all over the world and scans of medallions awarded to participants of the U.S. Space program. Cwmhiraeth (submissions) came in second place; she earned by far the most bonus points (4082), for 4 featured articles, 15 good articles, and 147 DYKs, mostly about in her field of expertise, natural science. Cas Liber (submissions), a finalist every year since 2010, came in third, with 2379 points.
Our newcomer award, presented to the best-performing new competitor in the WikiCup, goes to Rationalobserver (submissions). Everyone should be very proud of the work they accomplished. We will announce our other award winners soon.
A full list of our award winners are:
We warmly invite all of you to sign up for next year's competition. Discussions and polls concerning potential rules changes are also open, and all are welcome to participate. The WikiCup judges will be back in touch over the coming months, and we hope to see you all in the 2016 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement!

Hi
I'm very excited that Wikipedia Asian Month has many great articles already in the first ten days. To better help us understand how we are we doing on Wikipedia Asian Month, here are some small tasks:

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:35, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
Hi there!
Thank you for volunteering to organize Wikipedia Asian Month - we are doing something amazing! We are expecting to have 1,000 participants improving over 1,500 articles, possibly making Wikipedia Asian Month the largest long-term edit-a-thon ever. Here are a few tasks that need to be completed at the end of the event, as well as some tips you can take to achieve greater success.

Can't really do a rangeblock with the two IPs, one of which an IPv6. Do you have a list of IPs that have been used? Did we ever have an SPI, or a registered account? I don't think so but I could be wrong. If there are frequently targeted articles, we can semi-protect, of course. To put it another way, sorry, there's really nothing I can do right now; there's no point in blocking that IP. If you have more (articles, IPs), ping me and we'll see what we can do.

Hello SuperHamster: Enjoy the holiday season and winter solstice, and thanks for your work to maintain, improve and expand Wikipedia. Cheers, North America1000 16:39, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
Hello everyone, and we would like to wish you all a happy holiday season. As you will probably already know, the 2016 WikiCup begins in the new year; there is still time to sign up. There are some changes we'd like to announce before the competition begins.
After two years of serving as WikiCup judge, User:Miyagawa has stepped down as judge. He deserves great thanks and recognition for his dedication and hard work, and for providing necessary transition for a new group of judges in last year's Cup. Joining Christine (User:Figureskatingfan) and Jason (User:Sturmvogel 66) is Andrew (User:Godot13), a very successful WikiCup competitor and expert in Featured Pictures; he won the two previous competitions. This is a strong judging team, and we anticipate lots of enjoyment and good work coming from our 2016 competitors.
We would also like to announce one change in how this year's WikiCup will be run. In the spirit of sportsmanship, Godot13 and Cwmhiraeth have chosen to limit their participation. See here for the announcement and a complete explanation of why. They and the judges feel that it will make for a more exciting, enjoyable, and productive competition.
The discussions/polls concerning the next competition's rules will be closed soon, and rules changes will be made clear on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring and talk pages. The judges are committed to not repeating the confusion that occurred last year and to ensuring that the new rules are both fair and in the best interests of the competition, which is, first and foremost, about improving Wikipedia.
If you have any questions or concerns, the judges can be reached on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, on their talk pages, or by email. We hope you will all join us in trying to make the 2015 WikiCup the most productive and enjoyable yet. You are receiving this message because you are listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. Forty-seven competitors move into this round (a bit shy of the expected 64), and we are roughly broken into eight groups of six. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups.
Twenty-two Good Articles were submitted, including three by Cyclonebiskit (submissions), and two each by MPJ-DK (submissions), Hurricanehink (submissions), 12george1 (submissions), and Cas Liber (submissions). Twenty-one Featured Pictures were claimed, including 17 by Adam Cuerden (submissions) (the Round 1 high scorer). Thirty-one contestants saw their DYKs appear on the main page, with a commanding lead (28) by Cwmhiraeth (submissions). Twenty-nine participants conducted GA reviews with J Milburn (submissions) completing nine.

Hello SuperHamster,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Milgram obedience study for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. Take a look at our suggestions for essential content in short articles to learn what should be included.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Vinod 08:59, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello there! You are invited to attend the Great Buckeye Wiknic in Columbus, Ohio on Sunday, July 10th from 1:00 to 5:00 PM! Join us for a day in the park for food and socializing with others from the Wikimedia movement. We'll be meeting up at Fred Beekman Park, a park on Ohio State University's campus.
If you're interested, please take a look at our events page for more information, including parking info, food options, and available activities. If you plan on attending, please add your name to the attendees list. We look forward to seeing you!
If you have any questions, feel free to leave one on my talk page. Thanks! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 05:39, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
(Note: If you would like to stop receiving notifications regarding Wikimedia events around Ohio, you may remove your username from this list.)
Since there's nowhere on the meetup page to say this — I won't be able to attend, as attendance at the event would prevent me from being at church. Please keep me updated on future meetups, though. Nyttend (talk) 12:32, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
Recently a user deleted a feature list from Inkscape, citing WP:CHANGELOG. I improved the format, restricting the content to notable features, and re-added it into the article. The editor insists on deleting it. However the exact kind of table is present in Illustrator, a very similar software. What should be done? Can you add your opinion to the talk page? -- Wonderfl (reply)
Greetings SuperHamster:
It appears you have participated in an editathon in the past. We are doing a mini research study involving past editathon participants to transform and improve Wikipedia.
If this sounds like something quick you would want to do this summer, please sign up to our mini summer research program.
You can read more about our project here.
Together we can revolutionize Wikipedia!
Thanks & Cheers

Someone pointed me to the project you're working on. Good idea! But seeing that I've personally photographed 95% of Ohio's National Register sites, including most of the ones with on-wiki pictures uploaded by other people, I guess I should apologize for leaving less stuff for the WLM group to do :-) More seriously, would you consider trying to point the project toward illustrating individual municipalities and townships? See User:Nyttend/Ohio, where I'm tracking municipalities and townships that don't have any representative pictures; more than 90% of townships and municipalities statewide have photos, but nearly 200 locations in 29 counties have no photos yet, and any assistance would be quite helpful.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Shrum Mound, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Columbus (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.

Greetings, all! We would like to announce the start of the 4th GA Cup, a competition that seeks to encourage the reviewing of Good article nominations! Thus far, there have been three GA Cups, which were successful in reaching our goals of significantly reducing the traditionally long queue at GAN, so we're doing it again. Currently, there are over 400 nominations listed. We hope that we can again make an impact this time. The 4th GA Cup will begin on November 1, 2016. Four rounds are currently scheduled (which will bring the competition to a close on February 28, 2017), but this may change based on participant numbers. We may take a break in December for the holidays, depending on the results of a poll of our participants taken shortly after the competition begins. The sign-up and submissions process will remain the same, as will the scoring. Sign-ups for the upcoming competition are currently open and will close on November 14, 2016. Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors, so sign-up now! If you have any questions, take a look at the FAQ page and/or contact one of the judges. Cheers from 3family6, Figureskatingfan, Jaguar, MrWooHoo, and Zwerg Nase. We apologize for the delay in sending out this message until after the competition has started. Thank you to Krishna Chaitanya Velaga for aiding in getting this message out. To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletters, please add or remove your name to our mailing list. If you are a participant, you will be on the mailing list no matter what as this is the easiest way to communicate between all participants.

I had a few queries regarding WAM. I enrolled to Wikipedia editing for first time, when I saw the WAM November notice on the Wiki Pages. I intend being a participant in the WAM. Please guide me with the necessary registrations and sign-ups. Thank you.

there to sign up. After that, you should read the rules of the event, and submit any articles you create to this tool. If you have any questions along the way, feel free to ask. Since you are just joining Wikipedia, I recommend giving the Wikipedia Adventure a runthrough to learn some of the basics of editing.

Hi WAM organizers, due to unexpected maintenance on wmfLabs, which host our judging tool, the tool is currently down and can not be used in around next 48 hours or less. Please inform local participants for such problem, and tell them they can submit their contribution after the maintenance. I will send another update when the tool comes back.

Hi SuperHamster,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

I just created the article for the church I spent until about age 11 going to, St. John's Episcopal Church (Worthington, Ohio). In perusing the Wikimedia Commons for photos (c:St. John's Episcopal Church (Worthington, Ohio)), I noticed that several of them had your name (well, your Wikimedia Commons and real name, that is) attached to them, so was going to say "nice work/photos." But when I went to that user page and saw "SuperHamster" I started racking my brain to remember where I had seen it before. It's because I liked your signature (~SuperHamster) from when you invited me in June or July to the Wiknic (that I almost went to because I work on west campus anyway, but was busy that day :-( ), so I copied it and put it on my Sandbox for future reference/customization learning.
Well anyway, having just put all the pieces together of who you are and such, I just wanted to say nice photos (even though I went with Nyttend's photo for the main image), and that, now that I realize where I recognize the name ~SuperHamster from, just a simple "thank you" for any and all of your contributions so far!

Note: Monetary prizes are a one-year experiment for 2017 and may or may not be continued in the future. In order to be eligible to receive any of the prizes above, the competing Wikipedia account must have a valid/active email address.
After two years as a WikiCup judge, Figureskatingfan is stepping down. We thank her for her contributions as a WikiCup judge. We are pleased to announce that our newest judge is two-time WikiCup champion Cwmhiraeth.
The judges for the 2017 WikiCup are Godot13 (talk · contribs · email), Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs), and Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email).

Hello SuperHamster. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at page reviewer talk.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. — xaosflux Talk 23:07, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

Hey there. I'm having some issues with senior editor User:Iryna_Harpy on the article Andre Vltchek. Specifically, this user has been reverting my edits for no reason since Oct 2016. She has been adding false "issue" tags to the article and when I remove it my edits are reverted. I then started improving the article by adding citations, removing uncited statements, and so on, but she reverted 12 of my edits in one go. Can you please add your voice to Talk:Andre Vltchek#Suspicious edits on this article? Thank you. Wonderfl (reply) 07:20, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
