hello there,
there was a mediation offer quite a while ago concerning the issue of Trentino-South Tyrol. I am happy to announce that the issue has been discussed, voted upon and settled. However the mediation offer still needs to be officially closed. Please take a minute to visit the page Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2006-10-20 Trentino-South Tyrol and put your signature at the bottom if you agree with the decision, thank you. sincerely Gryffindor 20:31, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Cañari, by Closedmouth (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Cañari is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Cañari, please affix the template ((hangon)) to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 07:05, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
hello there PhJ, you once voted and showed interest on the topic of South Tyrol. Certain Italian users just can't seem to give the topic a rest and had the article moved with a sham vote to the Italian name. I am calling for that vote to be annulled or at least extended so that more can vote and the result be representative. Drop by the talk page or drop me a message if you would like to share your thoughts, I am interested in hearing from you. sincerely Gryffindor 04:26, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
Hello, I would like to hear your opinion on a possible different disambiguation concerning the term South Tyrol. The naming dispute for the Province of Bolzano-Bozen has been exhausting and I think that the current compromise is fine, although I might have preferred a forward slash (Bolzano/Bozen) rather than a hyphen. Since the linguistic majority of the province is German (as Icsunonove correctly points out here), it might also be possible to invert the names (Province of Bozen/Bolzano). After all, this is the convention used for instance in the article Åboland, where the Swedish place name comes first, and the Finnish one after. However, the naming dispute has been so long and "acidic" that it seems useless and not constructive to flame it again.
What I find unsatisfactory is the redirection from South Tyrol to Province of Bolzano-Bozen.
I propose something as follows:
South Tyrol (German: Südtirol) may refer to:
- the areas of the County of Tyrol (part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire) south of the Alpine divide, including the Italian-speaking areas of Trentino, in past times also known as Welschtirol in German.
- the German-speaking part of the County of Tirol that was annexed to the Kingdom of Italy in 1918.
- the Autonomous Province of Bolzano-Bozen, a political subdivision of the Republic of Italy, which is also known as Alto Adige (lit. "Upper Adige") in Italian and Südtirol (lit. "South Tyrol") in German.
I think that this suggested disambiguation is informative, balanced and reasonably neutral. This version relates to the current articles Tyrol, History of Alto Adige/South Tyrol and Province of Bolzano-Bozen, so any reader can find the information that matches his/her interests. This version also seems quite language-balanced. I would really like to hear your opinion.

I got the image of that rare Polylepis tree here: File:Polylepis rugulosa (A. Yates).jpg licensed freely after I contacted the flickr owner. It has now been passed by Flickr review. See my edit here I moved your image of the Polylepis Australis a bit lower. I hope that is OK. This is not my stuff--ancient history is--but I thought I should try to get that tree licensed freely by Mr. Yates for Wikipedia. It looked important. Thankfully, he was kind enough to oblige as many flickr owners don't even bother to respond to flickrmail from strangers. With kind Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 01:31, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
Hello there, you have nominated File:Historygerman2.png for speedy delete, but your reasoning is too complex and outside the knowlege of administrators. Instead you should list it at WP:FFD and explain your reason there, also ask others who know to participate in the discussion. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:35, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Hello PhJ, I'm contacting you because we need some Quechuan translators to help with the deployment of the new VisualEditor on qu.wikipedia. It is important that we get the User Guide and the User Interface translated before VisualEditor is deployed to users (to translate the User Interface, you need to start an account at translatewiki.net). More information on the translating work is available MediaWiki: Translation Central. I also need help with a personal message about the rollout for the Quechuan Wikipedians. If you are able to help in any way, either reply here, or head over to TranslationCentral. Thanks for your time, PEarley (WMF) (talk) 19:56, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I see you've listed me and several other editors on your user page article called Azerbaijani state propaganda on Wikipedia and have accused me and others of being paid by the Azerbaijani government. Could you please provide evidence of me being paid by the government and if not, remove the accusation? — CuriousGolden (T·C) 20:25, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi - I'm writing about the issue currently being discussed at ANI. As outlined at WP:PAID, undeclared paid editing (UPE) is taken very seriously, it is a breach of the terms of use of this website, and it routinely leads to accounts being blocked from editing. As with any such malfeasance, an accusation of UPE is itself a serious thing - it is an accusation that someone is acting in bad faith. Such comments, if made without evidence, are themselves a breach of our No Personal Attacks policy, which explicitly lists accusations about personal behavior that lack evidence. Serious accusations require serious evidence, usually in the form of diffs and links
as an example of an unacceptable personal attack. WP:ASPERSIONS is also worth reading.
If you have reason to believe that a group of editors is acting improperly, we definitely want to hear about it - but that needs to be done at the proper forum. Start a thread at ANI or COIN, and present your evidence, clearly and concisely. It is permitted to maintain userspace page where you put together evidence about another editor while putting together evidence for ANI report or similar, but it is expected that such a page would only be kept briefly, and with a clear purpose in mind - this is explained in more detail at WP:POLEMIC. If you want to collect evidence over a longer period of time, you should do so in private and off-wiki; if you have suspicions, but no hard evidence to back it up, it is usually better to stay silent on the matter. What you must not do again is to create a page, be that in WP space, in user space, or anywhere else (not even your sandbox), which accuses named individuals of paid editing without any evidence.
I hope this is clear. I haven't used a warning template, but please consider this a warning - if you make further unevidenced accusations of improper conduct, your account may be blocked from editing. Best GirthSummit (blether) 15:23, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
Many thanks for your input in Kanach Zham article, PhJ. I wonder you have the skills of importing the satellite images from Google - both the current one and pre-demolition one, to the article?

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Peruvian Agrarian Reform, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Quechua. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
