Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 10,000 metres, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Eugene (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.

Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:13, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
hi Habst, thanks for the thanks, i like adding lots of projects to article talkpage so more editors are aware of the article.

I've been meaning to get around to creating a page for Allie for over a year, and hoped someone would do it, as I don't have a lot of time. When I started it, I was looking at various race results and found Karissa to be something of a nemesis, though she finished well in front of her at the XC nationals in 2017. I looked to see if Karissa had a page, so I could Wikilink her name in text. That's how I found your new page created for her. I actually used your medals template for Allie's page. That's a great picture of her, but I'm not sure there might not be an objection, depending whether or not it's in the public domain. Thanks to you I also looked at the list of American female steeplechase runners, expecting to find Jackson, Coburn and Simpson, and was surprised to see Shannon Rowbury. I didn't know she had ever run one. So I researched and found she had, in 2006, while at Duke, but couldn't find any date or location. She ran a 9:59.4. Activist (talk) 08:40, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi there, Habst, and welcome to WiR. It's good to have a new member capable of writing such informative articles on women athletes. I hope you will be inspired to write many more, whether or not we are specifically focusing on women in sports. If you run into any difficulties or need any assistance, please let me know or post a message on the WiR talk page. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 10:10, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for establishing the TFRRS template. One problem which I will suggest you address in a revision, is that TFRRS produces multiple files for the same athlete. Here is Andre De Grasse at USC Habst/Archive 1 profile at TFRRS, but it ignores previous collegiate accomplishments at Andre De Grasse profile at TFRRS Coffeyville Community College and they also produced a random post collegiate article Habst/Archive 1 profile at TFRRS and a weird one for a 2013 indoor race Habst/Archive 1 profile at TFRRS. Its not you, me or wikipedia who is confused, its TFRRS. But how do we unify this chaos into something the wikipedia readers can understand? Trackinfo (talk) 06:57, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi Habst, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! TonyBallioni (talk) 13:44, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
The Original Barnstar | |
thank you Farid999111 (talk) 16:39, 4 June 2018 (UTC) |
I'm about to run a WP:JWB job that creates track-specific redirects to general collegiate sports teams like Akron Zips track and field to Akron Zips, only where no track-specific article already exists and there is at least some mention of the presence of a track team on the general article. This is already done on many pages so I'm just completing the job, but I'll link to this topic in edit summaries. The preliminary list is here, but I'm going to be doing sanity checks on every page as I'm doing it: User:Habst/JWB/College track articles to be created. --Habst (talk) 01:04, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

For your hard work in NCAA track and field articles, I hereby award you the Tireless Contributor Barnstar. Trackinfo (talk) 00:11, 14 June 2018 (UTC) |
So yes I want to personally thank you for your hard work with the NCAA results. It is great to have a new face here, I have felt so alone. There are so many more historical results to attend to. And your results, complete with prose, are much better than I have done and a model for future improvements. If you have any insights or techniques to reduce the labor in transcribing these results into wiki format, I am all ears. Trackinfo (talk) 00:11, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

Hello,
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.

Hi, I see your bot updates on P1344 with several qualifiers (for instance, on Usain Bolt (Q1189). Now, I try to deep in the ontology should have the sports results, but also the classes related with structures as sports competition (Q13406554), sports season (Q27020041), recurring sporting event (Q18608583), recurrent event edition (Q27968055), sports season of a sports club (Q1539532), etc. Unfortunately, projectes as d:Wikidata:WikiProject Sports or d:Wikidata:WikiProject Sport results seems to be abandoned or to be oriented to upload data on basic structures (person, sport, team,...). In the d:Wikidata:WikiProject Olympics, I can't found specific information about ontology. Ex: Why do you upload all the events of a person in P1344 ?. Some athlete could have hundreds of entries. Or, perhaps, will not be uploaded all the events ?. why do you repeat the result information (as a qualifiers of P1344 in the athletes) when it already exists on the event item?. In summary, if exists any ontology criteria at this level of sport information, do you know where to find it?. Is the Olympics project in early status and still in process to define ?. Any help will be thanks. Amadalvarez (talk) 16:01, 30 December 2018 (UTC)
Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article 600 meters is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/600 meters until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 22:42, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

I added to Karissa Schweizer's and Allie Ostrander's articles and wondered if you were still editing. I see you weren't for quite a while but have resumed doing so. I hope you got to see Karissa's double in the 5&10. I watched both online and on TV at the same time with a simultaneous but different feed. I watched the steeple as well, as I've followed Ostrander since she was a high schooler doing mountain running. I also noticed that Emily Lipari's article is in draft space. That seemed a bit odd to me, given all the junk covering nonentities* in many fields, and her prominence in track. *The worst I ran across was articles about nobodies who had read a few scripted lines in anime films.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Alexandre Fayollat requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at [[WP:LUGSTUBS]]. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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. BilledMammal (talk) 10:49, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
Hi Habst,
I see that you have recreated Alexandre Fayollat and George Patching by copying and pasting the content from Draft:Alexandre Fayollat and Draft:George Patching respectively. There are two issues with this.
First, copying and pasting the content, rather than moving, is problematic for attribution purposes; see WP:CUTPASTE. If the articles were to be kept the histories would need to be merged.
Second, the WP:LUGSTUBS consensus requires that sources are added that plausibly demonstrate WP:GNG before the article can be restored to mainspace. The sources you added (binktster, arrs, gbrathletics, la84, and la84) are all statistical databases; GNG is not plausibly demonstrated.
In the future, please do not restore articles drafted under LUGSTUBS unless you are able to plausibly demonstrate GNG, and if you are basing the article on Lugnut's work please make sure to move the article, rather than copying and pasting, to ensure that attribution is given.

Please check "what links here" when creating articles about athletes. You will find all the championships pages where the athlete is mentioned. A look at Kåshagen shows that there are a number of international championships which he competed in, that are not mentioned in the article.
