Why did you revert, call it vandalism and report it to AIV? 98.248.41.128 (talk) 23:46, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Huggle does that automatically and I was going to write a more descriptive report before the article was deleted, saying that he kept removing speedy deletion templates, adding his signature to the article, etc. Cody⁵⁷⁴ 23:48, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Oh, nothing personal, and it wasn't straight deletion - I clarified your first edit to say that the countdown is going out on the online stream (which is all we can confirm from the given source; do we know if it's going out on the radio as well?), and I cut the facepunch.com reference you added because forums don't meet WP:RS requirements for sources. I dropped the countdown from the article lead because it maybe didn't seem that significant in the wider picture, but maybe it's worth adding that back, in retrospect. --McGeddon (talk) 08:45, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Reconfirmation diff to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Subscribe

Hello. This is a message to inform you that your name has been removed from from the list of Wikipedia Signpost subscribers. Do not worry; this is simply a method of reforming the Signpost so that automated bots do not fill up retired users' talk pages with Signpost subscriptions (see discussion here) and to make life easier for the Signpost. If you wish to re-receive subscriptions, please send a reconfirmation edit to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Subscribe by signing with

1. MessageDeliveryBot [you can also use a user talk subpage (like
2. MessageDeliveryBot, replacing SUBPAGE with the subpage for the delivery), but this won't trigger your "New messages" bar.] Thank you for understanding.

Re Bernard Finnigan

Those links are perfectly functional for me. You are obviously subject to some kind of censorship. I have posted archive links in the article Talk page that should work.. if they don't, they have been censored too. Nevard (talk) 05:32, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

I never said they were not functional - I never even posted on the Bernard Finnigan talk page. I believe you are mistaking me for Calabe1992. Cody⁵⁷⁴ 05:35, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Hmm. I suspect you are recieving a censored version of the articles when accessing them on the original server. The original version, available in the archive links I've provided, does mention Finnigan by name. Nevard (talk) 05:42, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

One of the links that was posted (referenced on the talk page) was returning a "page cannot be found" when posted but is now functional. Calabe1992 (talk) 05:44, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Please stop undoing this user's blanking of their talk page, they have every right to blank it (see Wikipedia:User page#Removal of comments, notices, and warnings). Hut 8.5 21:37, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

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.

Wikipedia 15 in Winnipeg

Wikipedia15 Winnipeg maple leaf golden boy thunderbird house provencher bridge YWG

Wikipedia is celebrating its 15th birthday on January 15, 2016. I have thought for a while that it would be neat to meet some local wikipedians. According to the wikipedians in Winnipeg or Wikipedians in Manitoba category you are one of us. I am contacting people in this category to say: Let's celebrate this milestone. If you know other wikipedians, please ask them to join in as well.

I am posting this to your talk page as a transclude so that any updates will show up automatically.

Hope to see you there! Tenbergen (talk) 04:46, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

One other Winnipeg Wikipedian showed up, in addition to a number of regular skullspace members. It was nice to actually talk to someone else who has worked with Mediawiki and actually "gets" transclusion. Cake was eaten! Tenbergen (talk) 06:37, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

Aw, apparently I haven't logged in to Wikipedia in over 6 years and I totally missed this message and the event! I guessed I missed any 20 year celebration, too. Let me know if you end up doing a 25 year one. :) Clayton Rumley (talk) 22:52, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
