Amazon

Hello. Would this be acceptable for Amazon? Unfortunately I cant write longer written texts and someone would need to help me with that. Sources should be correct now.--Afus199620 (talk) 10:32, 7 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hello Matthew hk,

Community Wishlist Survey – NPP needs you – Vote NOW
  • Community Wishlist Voting takes place 16 to 30 November for the Page Curation and New Pages Feed improvements, and other software requests. The NPP community is hoping for a good turnout in support of the requests to Santa for the tools we need. This is very important as we have been asking the Foundation for these upgrades for 4 years.
If this proposal does not make it into the top ten, it is likely that the tools will be given no support at all for the foreseeable future. So please put in a vote today.
We are counting on significant support not only from our own ranks, but from everyone who is concerned with maintaining a Wikipedia that is free of vandalism, promotion, flagrant financial exploitation and other pollution.
With all 650 reviewers voting for these urgently needed improvements, our requests would be unlikely to fail. See also The Signpost Special report: 'NPP: This could be heaven or this could be hell for new users – and for the reviewers', and if you are not sure what the wish list is all about, take a sneak peek at an article in this month's upcoming issue of The Signpost which unfortunately due to staff holidays and an impending US holiday will probably not be published until after voting has closed.

Speedy deletion nomination of New world telecom

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on New world telecom, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. PRehse (talk) 15:07, 11 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

That redirect was attacked by IP . Should better protect the page instead of speedy. Matthew hk (talk) 02:28, 12 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

NPR Newsletter No.16 15 December 2018

Hello Matthew hk,

Reviewer of the Year
 

This year's award for the Reviewer of the Year goes to Onel5969. Around on Wikipedia since 2011, their staggering number of 26,554 reviews over the past twelve months makes them, together with an additional total of 275,285 edits, one of Wikipedia's most prolific users.

Thanks are also extended for their work to JTtheOG (15,059 reviews), Boleyn (12,760 reviews), Cwmhiraeth (9,001 reviews), Semmendinger (8,440 reviews), PRehse (8,092 reviews), Arthistorian1977 (5,306 reviews), Abishe (4,153 reviews), Barkeep49 (4,016 reviews), and Elmidae (3,615 reviews).
Cwmhiraeth, Semmendinger, Barkeep49, and Elmidae have been New Page Reviewers for less than a year — Barkeep49 for only seven months, while Boleyn, with an edit count of 250,000 since she joined Wikipedia in 2008, has been a bastion of New Page Patrol for many years.

See also the list of top 100 reviewers.

Less good news, and an appeal for some help

The backlog is now approaching 5,000, and still rising. There are around 640 holders of the NPR flag, most of whom appear to be inactive. The 10% of the reviewers who do 90% of the work could do with some support especially as some of them are now taking a well deserved break.


Really good news - NPR wins the Community Wishlist Survey 2019

At #1 position, the Community Wishlist poll closed on 3 December with a resounding success for NPP, reminding the WMF and the volunteer communities just how critical NPP is to maintaining a clean encyclopedia and the need for improved tools to do it. A big 'thank you' to everyone who supported the NPP proposals. See the results.


Training video

Due to a number of changes having been made to the feed since this three-minute video was created, we have been asked by the WMF for feedback on the video with a view to getting it brought up to date to reflect the new features of the system. Please leave your comments here, particularly mentioning how helpful you find it for new reviewers.

Logo of Avilés

I see also:

  • Official twitter is not updated since February 2017, so it can not be used as a reliable source when in the official site uses the new one more than the old one
  • T-shirts and nearly all new things the club publish use the new logo. (e.g., e.g. 2, e.g. 3
  • Other important websites as Futbolme use it.

It seems that the new logo is used since August-September until today and the club did not update it in the section of the "symbols" in their website (typical thing that you only update the day you create the website and later you forget it forever). The only official document where the old logo was used was that poster that now is not in the website.

Asturkian (talk) 11:48, 28 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Asturkian:. Please use proper venue to discuss the matter. Which is the talk page of the article. And the official twitter last tweet is February 2018 not February 2017. Matthew hk (talk) 12:49, 28 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

(no title)

Thank you very much for taking care of "The GAY Nishikori"'s vandalisms! Would you like to do that for a few more blocked socks of his (whose edits were exactly the same)? Here they are: Nishikori pure GAY; Nishikori the GAY; Nishikori a GAY; GAY Nishikori GAY; Miaowmiaowmew. I'm just an IP user so if I try reverting his vandalisms I may be exchanged for another vandal, but you're an autoreviewer, extendedconfirmed, patroller and reviewer here, that's why I'm relying on you. 5.170.44.45 (talk) 22:11, 29 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Well, lots of edits by other block evasion were not yet reverted, but i am not interested on reverting all. Matthew hk (talk) 22:14, 29 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
The fact is: I've already tried reverting them, but, since his vandalisms look like constructive, when I undo them a tag appears next to my edit making me look like the vandal there (see what happened here: [1])... Except for Miaowmiaowmew's, the edits to undo aren't a lot. 5.170.44.45 (talk) 22:19, 29 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
You need to type a proper edit summary so that other people understand what you are doing. Such as "revert foo edit as checkuser block , block evasion". However, in some case, edits should not be reverted if those edits were made before the first indef block of the sockmaster. For the IPA edits, i believed i just forgot the name of the sockmaster, not shooting myself on reverting edit that made before the sockmaster's first block.

Hello there!

You seem to have finished the clean-up I just started in Category:Public libraries. Thanks! Would you be interested in helping me with the overall project? I'm trying to get WikiProject Libraries revived, and am pretty much working alone at the moment. I wouldn't mind the help, though we probably should coordinate our work so we don't get in each other's way or take our work in two different directions. Right now, I'm focusing on cleaning up the category structure and dusting off the cobwebs. At any rate, glad to meet you. LibraryGeek (talk) 08:01, 30 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Well, i always had a full list of clean up. Such as fixing every weather box of Hong Kong and adding reference back to every Italian football clubs. So, i am afraid i don't have much time. Matthew hk (talk) 08:03, 30 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Okay then, I understand. I have my hands full, too. We just seem to happen to have crossed paths. Thanks for your help. LibraryGeek (talk) 08:07, 30 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Serie A abbreviations

Hi mate, I do a bit of work on the broadcast of Serie A and there is indeed a list of abbreviations for the teams. I can't guarantee the abbreviations will stay the same every year, but this is what they are for 2018/19:

Team name Abbreviation
Atalanta ATA
Bologna BOL
Cagliari CAG
ChievoVerona CHI
Empoli EMP
Fiorentina FIO
Frosinone FRO
Genoa GEN
Inter INT
Juventus JUV
Lazio LAZ
Milan MIL
Napoli NAP
Parma PAR
Roma ROM
Sampdoria SAM
Sassuolo SAS
SPAL SPA
Torino TOR
Udinese UDI

They're all pretty obvious, literally just the first three letters of each team's name, but it's good to have them written down and codified somewhere. – PeeJay 13:50, 4 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Yes they seem appeared in http://www.legaseriea.it. However, the problem of fb templates, were those Serie C and Serie D club template. Matthew hk (talk) 13:53, 4 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

American English Vandalism

Hey, I mentioned this on #wikipedia-en but I just want to let you know that the user you recently warned has continued with their disruptive editing. I'm still pretty new so I'm not sure how to deal with them, but maybe a uw-mos3 or 4 might be warranted at this point since they have a history of these types of edits. Cheers! Perryprog (talk) 20:26, 4 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

use WP:AIV, mention LTA (long term abuse) and his isp Rogers Communications. He is pretty much vandalize for a few years. Matthew hk (talk) 22:38, 4 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Your mention of me in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/123.150.182.180

What part of If you do not think I am associated with these socks then my edit is irrelevant to this case and you should not have mentioned me do you not understand? You asked the admins to compare the listed sock IPs's edits to my edit. That's implying that you think I am involved as a sock, whether you formally listed me or not.. If , on the other hand, I am not an involved editor as you state, then you should not mention me and ask the admins to compare the socks edits to mine. You cannot have it both ways. Please redact my name from that SPI and don't do that again. Meters (talk) 06:27, 9 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
