Violating[edit]

Hyurdagon keep going around all articles of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey and keeps vandalizing them. Dear user please report him as i have already done so. I will also add the History of wine as one of the pages he vandalized. Also please check other Georgia)especially Food, History and Music) related pages to keep an eye on him and several other Armenian users who literally "Armenify" them!

I will keep that in mind. Thanks for the heads-up. Simboyd (talk) 09:27, 1 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Discretionary sanctions alert[edit]

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Louis I of Hungary you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Miyagawa -- Miyagawa (talk) 22:20, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Louis I of Hungary/GA1[edit]

Simboyd, the first part of the GA review was posted over two weeks ago, and you haven't yet edited the article to address the issues raised in the course of the review. As nominator, it is your responsibility to make the necessary edits to those places that don't currently meet the Good Article criteria. If you aren't prepared to do such edits, please let the reviewer know as soon as possible. Thank you. Note that if you do not work on this soon, the nomination will probably be closed as unsuccessful. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:04, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't even know I was responsible for the article or its review in any way. I will try to do my best at what is asked of me in this regard, although I can give no guarantees, because 1) my English is terrible and 2) I'm new to all of this. --Simboyd (talk) 21:21, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Louis I of Hungary[edit]

On 18 September 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Louis I of Hungary, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Louis I of Hungary was forced by the Black Death to return to Hungary from the Kingdom of Naples that he had occupied? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Louis I of Hungary. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. 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.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 02:58, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
