Hi. I noticed that you changed the name of the Christian Hayes article to Bic Hayes, but haven't updated any of the articles that already link to the original page?

Hello! Voting in the 2022 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 12 December 2022. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority 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 in the 2022 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add ((NoACEMM)) to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:51, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created, Melanie Woods (musician), is not suitable as written to remain published. It appears there is a WP:UPE or WP:COI conflict. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, and have addressed the UPE/COI issue, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. As per WP policy, please do not move into mainspace yourself. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 14:44, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I thought that the article met the notability guideline for musicians: "has been a member of two or more independently notable groups"; "Members of two notable bands are generally notable enough for their own article." There is no conflict of interest as I do not know the subject of the article, nor have I been paid by anyone to make it. Miklogfeather (talk) 15:29, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Curb Safe Charmer was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Melanie Woods (musician) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Miklogfeather! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

See you there! Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 13:08, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Miklogfeather. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Tim Smith discography, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 22:03, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

She is not royal, and her name should not be changed to make her look royal. "Princess Anni-Frid [without surname]" = fake and embarrassing to her. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 15:20, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just going by what the sources say.^[1][2] It's not about making her look more or less royal. Miklogfeather (talk) 16:22, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please indent your talk page entries!

Thank you! I've started a discussion about this now on that article's talk page. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 10:07, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Miklogfeather. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Tim Smith discography".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:19, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Regarding your additions of 20 scores to Cracker Island, see Template:Album ratings. There should be no more than 10 reviews in table form. Also, Rolling Stone no longer awards stars. The American version of the magazine announced this last year. The review you linked to does not have a star rating. The icon that says "Hear This" and has stars in it is not the score; it is a logo. Please bear this in mind in future. Thank you. Ss112 05:33, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, I wasn't aware of the 10 review limit. Should certain outlets be prioritised over others for inclusion?

I thought it was agreed on the Midnights article that the Rolling Stone logos still count as scores, hence why it's still listed, and aggregators still seem to treat it as such. Miklogfeather (talk) 11:32, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for uploading File:Ugly Is Beautiful (Deluxe).png. However, there is a concern that the use of the image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. Details of this problem, and which specific criteria that the image may not meet, can be obtained by going to the image description page. If you feel that this image does meet those criteria, please place a note on the image description or talk page explaining why. Do not remove the ((di-fails NFCC)) tag itself.

An administrator will review this file within a few days, and having considered the opinions placed on the image page, may delete it in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion or remove the tag entirely. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Ирука¹³ 18:03, 1 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page A Celebration of Endings, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 17:57, 2 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, the MediaWiki thumbnailer makes PNG (.png) images appear blurry. PNG compression is also inefficient for photos and video stills. PNG generally works well for simple shapes, text and diagrams as it's lossless. JPEG (usually .jpg) is more efficient and looks better on photos and video stills, just remember to set the compression to high quality. (in applications where the quality is set as a percentage: 95% or higher) JPEG is bad for text though, see JPEG#Typical use.
The MediaWiki thumbnailer sharpens JPEG thumbnails which makes them look much better, it doesn't do this for PNG because the sharpening looks awful on high contrast text and shapes. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 11:16, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yeah, I used a Chrome extension to screenshot the video which saved as a PNG and I didn't think to change it to a JPG, my bad. Miklogfeather (talk) 11:44, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
