KY Senate districts[edit]

Hey Cat! Thank you for getting started on making pages for the KY legislative districts, I had been meaning to get started on that. I've just made maps for each senate district and a template listing the districts, so if you could incorporate those, that would be great. Also, the senate elections of 1996 and 2010 have pages so you may want to link to those as well. -Mad Mismagius (talk) 16:54, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mr. Mismagius! Thanks for creating the maps. I commend you for all your hard work and dedication. If you want to finish creating the articles, it's fine with me. Regards. 🐱FatCat96🐱 Chat with Cat 00:52, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, that's very kind to say. I've created this sandbox with wikitables listing each senate district's members since 1984. Please feel free to copy and paste those whenever you get back to making pages for the senate districts again. -Mad Mismagius (talk) 18:15, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please fix your signature[edit]

Hey Kentuckian,

There is a contrast issue with your signature. Specifically, the yellow talk text being on a white background makes it hard to read. Please change it to something else, so it isn't a contrast issue, and doesn't affect editors with visual impairments. Thanks. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:27, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for heads up! I didn't realize it was an issue, as it looked just fine for me. I changed it to a darker orange. Hope that fixes things. ⚜ Kentuckian ⚜ | talk to me 02:32, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User:80.4.63.188 at AIV[edit]

Hi, could you explain why this IP's edits at The Real Housewives of Atlanta are vandalism? You reported the IP for vandalism after final warning, but the only edit after the warning, [1], appears to be merely a rearrangement of information without changing any content, as far as I can tell. Nyttend (talk) 20:39, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I’m sorry, but I don’t remember ever reporting that IP. I believe you’ve made a mistake, and if you’ll look in the edit history of Housewives of Atlanta, you’ll see that I’ve never made any edits to the page. CycloneYoris was the one who made the report. Thank you! Kentuckian |💬 02:40, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, sorry about that! Nyttend (talk) 10:42, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's fine. After all, we're all human, and mistakes are unavoidable. Kentuckian |💬 13:27, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

New users[edit]

Hi, Kentuckian. I wish you wouldn't even suggest to new users that there was any way of creating an article other than by WP:AFC, as you have at the Teahouse. Yes, they are technically able to do so as soon as they are autoconfirmed, but even with AFC it's usually a frustrating experience for everyone, and if they try to go straight to article space, there's one more stage at which they may very well feel knocked back. ColinFine (talk) 17:04, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the heads up! Sorry about that. I'll make sure that it doesn't happen again in the future. Kentuckian |💬 18:03, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Enoch Edgar Hume[edit]

On 2 May 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Enoch Edgar Hume, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Enoch Edgar Hume was presented as a candidate for election to the Kentucky House of Representatives without his knowledge? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Enoch Edgar Hume. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Enoch Edgar Hume), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
