When you made this edit, you called a named reference, Words
, but you never defined it, which resulted in the error message at (current) ref number 22, Cite error: The named reference Words was invoked but never defined. Please fix that when you have the chance. Thanks. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 06:42, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

HI Deisenbe/Archive 10,
I'm writing to let you know we have simplified the RfC on trust levels for the tool WikiLoop DoubleCheck. Please join and share your thoughts about this feature! We made this change after hearing users' comments on the first RfC being too complicated. I hope that you can participate this time around, giving your feedback on this new feature for WikiLoop DoubleCheck users.
Thanks and see you around online,
María Cruz

Deisenbe, please do not re-add content at Template:Thomas Dixon Jr. without first discussing it on the talk page. Doing so is a form of edit-warring.--User:Namiba 17:04, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Secret societies in the United States requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
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. Liz Read!

Hi Deisenbe! The thread you created at the Wikipedia:Teahouse,
|
I made this edit summary obliquely referring to you on the Prudence Crandall article without geolocating the IP I was reverting, which I probably should have done first ... it turns out that the editor is from Fort St. John, British Columbia, about 14 hours drive north-north-east of Vancouver! I don't know why you ... or almost anyone ... would want to live there, particularly at this time of year, but anyway ... :-) Graham87 08:30, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
Please remember to identify the source of the material in your edit when copying within Wikipedia.
This type of edit does get picked up by Copy Patrol and a good edit summary helps to make sure we don't accidentally revert it. For future use, would you note the best practices wording as outlined at Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia? In particular, adding a link to the source and the phrase "see that page's history for attribution" helps ensure that proper attribution is preserved. It is not too late to add the attribution. See Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia#Repairing_insufficient_attribution which explains how to do so.S Philbrick(Talk) 13:55, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
Hello there!
My name is AVardhana (WMF) (talk) 19:17, 3 March 2021 (UTC), and I recently joined The Wikipedia Library team to help with design work. I noticed you've been very generous with your input to our team so I thought I would reach out! I'm writing to invite you to participate in an interview study that I'm currently conducting.
This would involve us meeting via Google meets where I will ask you a few questions and then have you test a prototype with me. For the interview, I'd be recording your screen as well as audio. The purpose of the study is to get a better understanding of who is using The Wikipedia Library for the purposes of making the right improvements!
If you're interested, please email me at avardhana@wikimedia.org, and I'll send a copy of the privacy statement to you. If you have any questions, I am happy to answer them.
Thank you, Aishwarya
Hello Deisenbe. I got your name from the Wikipedia:Local Embassy where you are listed as someone familiar with the Spanish language. I was wondering if I could enlist your assistance with
Two new accounts (Marianasegura and VHHerver) have been coordinating edits regarding a business called Jüsto, both here and on Spanish Wikipedia. The first is undoubtedly an undisclosed WP:PAID editor; I'm sure the second is either a WP:SOCK or WP:MEAT account.
Here at en-wiki, the first account has posted promotional content about this company in their sandbox. The second account has created a nearly identical sandbox and also a draft article about this company. At es-wiki, the first account posted similar article-like content, in English, on their userpage (es:Usuario:Marianasegura). The second account created a mainspace article es:Jüsto, which appears to be now nominated for deletion.
Here, I left ((uw-agf-sock))
messages for both users (which the first user has subsequently deleted). I'm not sure if a similar template exists on es-wiki. I also noticed that there is a page there to request a Checkuser (es:Wikipedia:Solicitudes de verificación de usuarios), but I don't know if it's justified to do that just yet. Perhaps you could post a request there, or something else if you know a better protocol to follow?
Thanks in advance! --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 05:53, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi Deisenbe, in your recent edits to John Brown (abolitionist) you cited the undefined reference "Meyer", creating a ref error. Could you please edit the article to clarify what reference was intended? Thanks! —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 13:17, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for supporting Project WikiLoop! The year 2020 was an unprecedented one. It was unusual for almost everyone.

We also wanted to extend a big thank you for your support, advice, contributions and love that make all this possible.
Head over to our project page on Meta Wikimedia to read a brief 2020 Year in Review for WikiLoop.
Thank you for taking the time to review Wikipedia using WikiLoop DoubleCheck. Your work is important and it matters to everyone. We look forward to continuing our collaboration through 2021!

As a member of WikiProject LGBT studies, editing on LGBTQ+ issues or if you identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community, come help us set goals, develop our organisation and structures, consider how to respond to issues faced by Queer editors, and plan for the next 12 months.
