No problem! I'm glad you've decided to take on some tough topics. I should warn you that disagreements will be inevitable. But if you can find good research and keep an open mind in discussions, you'll find most editors are pretty reasonable. BTW, I haven't seen your updates to side-scrolling video game go through. Perhaps you forgot to save your edits? Randomran (talk) 20:20, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I just realized that my post in talk may have come off as a little WP:BITE... I didn't realize you were as new to wiki as you are. As a good-faith gesture, I've fixed your WPVG userbox here (so it doesn't bleed into the subtopics). I've noticed that other WPVG members tend to place their WPVG tag on their user page rather than their user talk, but I'll leave that up to you.

The article The City of Miami Television has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Deb (talk) 18:17, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I noticed that you are a big contributor in the "List of Super Nintendo Entertainment System games", and I'd like to invite you to contribute to the Talk:List of Nintendo 64 games#Removal of Alternate Titles and Number of Players where we are discussing the use of keeping alternate titles in the "List of...games" some have suggested that they take up too much space and that other columns could seem to be "useful only to fans", and other things that have been mentioned that, and other 'List of' talk pages. I know you might be watching the page and seen how I mention this on the Super NES games list page, but I hope you'll come and give you opinion, and hopefully keep these type of concerns from arising again and again at each "List of" pages.

Just wondering why you blanked the redirect at King of Kings (video game)? If you think the redirect should be deleted, take it to Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion instead of blanking it.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 18:50, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I noticed this redirect a couple of days ago, and changed it to redirect to Wesleyan Church. I think that makes sense as there shouldn't really be a different destination if someone types a capital letter or not. I notice that you have now redireted back to Wesleyan Church (United States). Now, I have no problem with that being the destination, if it is agreed that that is the primary topic, but until that is decided, surely we should be consistent and just have it redirected to the dab page (or get it deleted, in which case people would end up there anyway).

Hey, I appreciate the effort you're putting in clearing up links to disambiguation pages! However, you could save yourself a bit of time and potentially nasty stares - I see you changed a link on Talk:Charles M. Schulz. WP:DPL suggests "Please avoid editing comments on "Talk:" pages; doing so is usually inadvisable per the talk page guidelines." It's best if comments are left saying what the editor said, rather than what you think they meant to say. - Nat Gertler (talk) 14:59, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Not everything related to TeX is a text editor. I know that the choice of stubs is limited due to the brain damaged wikiproject which limits creation of new, useful stubs, (and the lack of software to do this automatically, e.g. WP:Category intersection) but miscategorizing software to satisfy them isn't a good alternative.

Greetings! I see you have recently created one or more new stub templates or categories. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types be proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals. This helps to reach consensus about whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Discoveries, where comments are welcome as to any rationale for this stub type. Please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals!This message is a boilerplate, left here as a courtesy, and should not be considered personal in nature.

Hi Dawynn,
I am intrigued by your addition of stub tags to articles such as Aculeata, horntail and birch leafminer. Are there specific criteria that you are using to determine "stubbiness"? I agree that they each need considerable work, but I'm not sure I'd call any of them a stub. --Stemonitis (talk) 15:49, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, OK. --Stemonitis (talk) 05:04, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It's probably because those articles are using a slightly old-fashioned syntax; rather than using named parameters class=

. There will be quite a lot of these among the insects, unfortunately. --Stemonitis (talk) 06:53, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

The Côte d'Ivoire templates and stubs were approved in May 2009. In the future, to find the discussion, you can check the templates for their creation date and search the archives just before that time. The templates were created in June 2009 and the stub proposal was in May, and it included approval for creation of the templates and categories large enough to be filled--I posted a link to it at your "Discoveries" post. The main category, Côte d'Ivoire geo stubs, was one of the categories listed as too large, and it appeared from glancing through it that sub-categories by region were warranted, and I have sufficient knowledge of, and references on, rural Côte d'Ivoire geography to do that. I created the sub-categories for the existing templates to clean out the main category, and I created the categories according to the existing template names. I will leave the Côte d'Ivoire geography stub sorting to you and find somewhere else to edit. --Kleopatra (talk) 05:49, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You reassessed a bunch of Indiana state highways, changing the assessments for WP:USRD as well. Our assessment scheme works a little differently than many other projects, and you dropped the assessments from start-class to stub-class on many of them. We look to see how many of the "big three" sections (route description, history, junction list/major intersections) are present. If there are none or one of the sections present, it's stub-class. If there are two sections present, it's start-class. All three makes it C-class, and if the sections are "substantially complete" and well referenced, then it's B-class.

When you nominate pages for deletion at any deletion process (including at Stub types for Deletion), please don't take actions which "set facts on the ground" in preparation for deletion - such as emptying categories, retargetting templates which populate categories (such as here) and orphaning templates (such as here). In fact, even if you're not the nominator, you should usually leave these actions for the admin who closes the discussion. (Discussions should almost NEVER be closed by non-admins; the major exceptions are blatant speedy keep cases (including withdrawn nominations) and cases where an admin has already deleted the page(s) and appears to have forgotten to formally close the case.) עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 11:16, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Dawynn. I noticed you have started working on Crambinae articles as well. If you do, could you please use http://globiz.pyraloidea.org/ as a source? This is an updated taxonomy of the whole family. The genereric names index you are using is great, but it is outdated so please dont use it to put articles in cats for this family (it is fine to use if no other source is available, but in this case, it is better to use http://globiz.pyraloidea.org/)! Furthermore, I have a request: if you do help with the crambidae genera, could you please also add all species and genus synonyms in the article? If not, would you please leave them alone right now? I am updating the whole family and it is harder to see which still need work if they have already been put in categories. Ruigeroeland (talk) 13:39, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, in Crambidae you made a few of the redlinks on that page redirect to the page. This should never be done, as per WP:R#Self-redirects.
(In this case, if we had the subfamilies as sections on the main page, it is OK to make them redirect to the specific section, but even then it may be wise to avoid REDIRECT and use a piped link like "[[#Cybalomiinae|Cybalomiinae]]")

Hi Dawynn I see that you have replaced Turkey geo stub with Province geo stub in tens of stub articles. These articles are about villages or small towns.

Hi Dawynn. Since you created those lists of games and stuff... lemme ask you this: Wanna help "me" improving this page? List of Sharp X68000 games (looks like sh*t, I only added the games when I actually played it.) If I do it alone, it will take months but if someone help "me", it will be totally different.
I've been adding the games + covers on GameFAQs.
Many of these Sharp titles are ports from SNES and etcs games, or vice-versa, and guess what, the Sharp versions are way better in many cases. A simple list, with the game's title, japanese name, date of release and genre. Well, if you are "interested" say me something and we can start soon, if not, just ignore this message. :]

Hi there! I noticed you added a stub tag to Michael Brown (British politician). The article is already eight paragraphs long, over 400 words and contains five references. Given that a stub is defined as "an article containing only a few sentences of text which [...] is too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject," I've removed the stub tag.

Hello Dawynn. I have a request: could you make a stub template for the family Heliozelidae? We had the family listed under the Incurvarioidea superfamily. But a recent source suggests this is incorrect. According to this source, the superfamily should be Adeloidea, but we dont have an article on that superfamily yet. I have to do some research to clarify the status of Adeloidea vs. Incurvarioidea, but it would resolve some errors if we could tag Heliozelidae species with their own stub template, instead of the superfamily template. The family consists of 123 species (only a small portion have articles on wikipedia yet though). Cheers and thanks! Ruigeroeland (talk) 12:17, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop creating crustacean categories without prior discussing. The categorisation hierarchy is meant to be useful, and that often means keeping larger categories rather than subdividing things as far as possible. --Stemonitis (talk) 11:50, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Malacostraca is a borderline case, which is why I haven't undone it, but things like Cephalocarida (only one member, so entirely useless as a category) and Eucarida are clear-cut. They simply add an extra click for anyone searching through the category hierarchy, without adding any significant functionality. I'm also not convinced that adding additional stub categories is really helpful. Has anyone been unable to find an article to expand because the categories were too big (c. 500)? I suspect not. In all these cases, discussing things at the project's talk page is to be recommended, and could prevent wasted effort on everyone's part. --Stemonitis (talk) 12:11, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but to what end? What is the advantage of this effort? After dozens of edits switching between stub templates and erecting categories in an increasingly complex hierarchy, the stub articles themselves are no more likely to be expanded than they were before. Which templates do you propose to "resurrect"? {{Ostracod-stub}} is an obviously bad idea. There are only 36 articles about ostracods in total, so even if all were stubs, there would not be enough; in fact, there are only 30. {{Maxillopoda-stub}} is similarly ill-advised; only 41 articles would be members. This sort of thing is best done with the approval and assistance of the relevant wikiprojects, who are the ones who will have to maintain the systems after all. If nothing else, they should be informed, but much, much better is to involve them in the preparation, so that bad ideas can be nipped in the bud. Experience shows that many proposals do not deserve to be put into action. --Stemonitis (talk) 13:39, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Done. And I encourage you not to waste everyone's time with such frivolous proposals in future. You should have known from my previous comments that these proposed new stub categories would be unhelpful. In fact, you should have even known without my comments. You continue to avoid contacting any Wikiprojects about changes to articles and categories that affect them directly. You have not provided a single reason why the new stub types should be created and used. All this is very troubling behaviour, and I hope you will learn a lesson from this. --Stemonitis (talk) 14:32, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I am open to requests to upmerge those categories. However, each proposal must stand on its own merits; Wikipedia does not recognise precedent in such cases. The presence of inadvisable categories doesn't make others any more useful. Most of the categories you were creating were intermediate in rank, and were just creating complexity without improving anything. --Stemonitis (talk) 15:49, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm in a little over my head in Lepidoptera. Do you think you could help me out with an issue I'm having with Phyllonorycter aberrans? I found that the original name for the species by Annette Braun, the binomial authority, was LITHOCOLLETIS aberrans. Template:Taxobox is a little confusing, but it seems to me that LITHOCOLLETIS aberrans should be listed as the binomial name, with Phyllonorycter aberrans as a junior synonym. Is this the protocol? --Snorkelman 03:52, 8 November 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Snorkelman (talk • contribs)
Okay - on review I can see how I got confused. ICZN 67B says:
Recommendation 67B. Citation of type species. The name of a type species should be cited by its original binomen. If the name of the type species is, or is currently treated as, an invalid name, authors may also cite its valid synonym.
So the original name rule doesn't apply here. I'll get the hang of it sooner or later.--Snorkelman 14:13, 8 November 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Snorkelman (talk • contribs)

Hello, Dawynn. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I wanted to let you know that I have undone a series of edits you made to pages named like "Lists of XXX", in which you marked them as disambiguation pages. You may want to review the WP:CONCEPTDAB section of the disambiguation guideline. In a nutshell, a list of lists about related topics is not a disambiguation page, it is just a list. A disambiguation page is used when there are different topics that could be searched for using the same title, not when there are multiple lists about the same topic. I hope this clears it up, although I realize the distinction is sometimes quite subtle. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 15:52, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I've modified your stub templating at Randhawa, using {{india-stub}} rather than {{hinduism-stub}}. I've no idea whether Hinduism is the major religion of this particular clan of the Jat people but I do know that there are many Indic communities that do not follow the tenets of Hinduism, eg: the Muslim Jats. Using the India template seems safer to me, although an equivalent for Pakistan might also apply. I chose not to use Pakistan because that Wikiproject is less active and because Pakistan was until recent years a part of India anyway. Hope this makes sense. - Sitush (talk) 09:09, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

An edit like this one is not "stub-sorting" as you say in your edit summary: it's assigning a stub tag and thus creating a job of stub-sorting to be done. If you are tagging a mass of similar stubs as you've done here, it would be helpful to add the sorted stub tags yourself instead of just increasing the size of Category:Stubs. I reckon the Norwegian years take {{year-stub}} and {{Norway-hist-stub}}. PamD 18:00, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dawynn. I see the Harz-Mountain-geo-stub and category are being deleted. As the author I am disappointed that I was not contacted in the normal way about this proposal. Actually, unless there is a wiki rule that geo-stubs may only be linked to admin areas, I don't quite follow the logic for deletion either.

Hi Dawynn, say, if you toss stub tags, would you also kindly check the article talk page and similarly upgrade any wikiproject assessments from "stub" to "start" class too? And please don't be too hasty to toss stub tags, those often indicate articles that are the most need of help -- even 2-3 paragraphs and a see also don't really make some articles "start" class, though I acknowledge there is a judgement call there.

Thank you for your edits to my first article, Artvoice. It was only a draft until the chance of it being deleted while it was still in my user space moved me to fight for its survival and placement as an article. I have lived in Buffalo, NY my entire life. I was surprised that at least some information about Artvoice was not previously available. Please feel free to expand the article. My primary interest has been to edit articles in an effort to educate readers in subjects that I am interested in. Now that readers of Buffalo, NY have a method of learning about Buffalo without buying a subscription to The Buffalo News I am satisfied. Do you think that expansion of this article is practical? I pick up Artvoice at my favorite tavern, Sportsmens, almost every week. There is no home delivery but it is available at supermarkets and other retail locations in the City.1archie99 (talk) 11:56, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for creating a series of subfamily-level stub templates for the Erebidae family of moths several weeks ago. I have begun using Scolecocampinae-stub on appropriate moth pages (e.g., Scolecocampa) and noticed that the template puts the pages in the Erebidae stubs category instead of in a Scolecocampinae stub category. Could the latter category be created and used by the same-named stub template? Treichar (talk) 01:59, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. Today my list of pages with invisible characters was unexpectedly large. I noticed that you added stub tags using AWB. I have a question: Did you copy the word "Sesiidae-stub" from somewhere or did you direcly type it in the F&R window of AWB? This will help me find the source of all these invisible characters.
If you wonder, there was a left-to-right mark (200E) hidden before "-" in the text you added. -- Magioladitis (talk) 06:49, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dawynn. I am Piotr Konieczny (User:Piotrus), you may know me as an active content creator (see my userpage), but I am also a professional researcher of Wikipedia. Recently I published a paper (downloadable here) on reasons editors participated in Wikipedia's biggest vote to date (January 2012 WP:SOPA). I am now developing a supplementary paper, which analyzes why many editors did not take part in that vote. Which is where you come in :) You are a highly active Wikipedian (71st to be exact), and you were active back during the January 2012 discussion/voting for the SOPA, yet you did not chose to participate in said vote. I'd appreciate it if you could tell me why was that so? For your convenience, I prepared a short survey at meta, which should not take more than a minute of your time. I would dearly appreciate you taking this minute; not only as a Wikipedia researcher but as a fellow content creator and concerned member of the community (I believe your answers may help us eventually improve our policies and thus, the project's governance). PS. If you chose to reply here (on your userpage), please WP:ECHO me. Thank you! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 23:27, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dawynn, I see you've been working hard on stub sorting of the Arctiinae moth pages. Keep up the great work. And thanks for filing the proposal for the proper tree of stub categories for the group. I had skipped this subfamily in my Erebidae subfamily stub-splitting proposal and forgot to revisit it later. Treichar (talk) 04:32, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Good evening Dawynn.
You've recently used the edit summary "Stub sorting" on a bunch of articles where you did not in fact sort but instead added a stub tag even though they were assessed as Start, C or better.
Looking through your talk page history it seems you are being driven by Wikipedia:Database reports/Untagged stubs which uses article text size as one of its parameters. Would you kindly point to the discussion and consensus for doing this? My understanding has always been that small size of itself does not make a stub. See Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment (where there is no mention of size) or Wikipedia:Stub#How big is too big? which says explicitly "...it is impossible to state whether an article is a stub based solely on its length".
-Arb. (talk) 21:24, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In an edit like this[3] you are adding a stub tag to an article that hardly meets the "containing only one or a few sentences of text ... too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject" definition in WP:STUB. If you are using some automated measure (wordcount?) to decide whether an article is/not a stub then would you then remove the stub tag if the addition of a few words took the article over your(?) definition of a stub. In other words, wouldn't it be better (e.g. to avoid unnecessary watchlist noise) if you only stub-tagged pages that clearly are stubs? DexDor (talk) 21:12, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I'm curious about what the point of adding the popstub tag (example) is. What editors are you expecting to see that tag? What difference do you expect the tag to have on the edits that those editors make? If you know that there are more articles that belong in the category then why don't you categorize them yourself? and if you don't know that there's more articles that belong in the category then why do you think the tag is appropriate? When should the tag be removed? Will you review that category in a few months and consider removing the popstub tag? DexDor (talk) 21:49, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Dawynn, your recent AWB edit rate has been excessive, flooding recent changes at editing rates of ~1/second. High speed jobs, even if run by an editor, fall under the bot policy.

Hi there, I've just removed the {{popstub}} template you added to Category:Prince Edward Island road stubs. You had added it a few months ago and I went through all of the PEI roads articles then and added all of the stubs I could find, so the category doesn't need to be populated if there are no more stubs to add.

If you're going to be continuing stub sorting of beetles or other organisms, please consider creating categories for genera and placing species articles in those categories. You've been moving articles from subfamily categories to tribe categories, which is certainly helpful. But ultimately many of them should probably be moved another rank down the taxonomic category tree. If there are 5-10 articles for species in a single genus, a genus level category is likely appropriate (and if there are 5-10 blue link species in a genus with dozens of red links, a genus category will certainly be appropriate as additional species articles are created).

Hello. It appears your talk page is becoming quite lengthy and is in need of archiving. According to Wikipedia's user talk page guidelines: "Large talk pages are difficult to read and load slowly over slow connections. As a rule of thumb, archive closed discussions when a talk page exceeds 75 KB or has multiple resolved or stale discussions." – this talk page is 233.5 KB. See Help:Archiving a talk page for instructions on how to manually archive your talk page, or to arrange for automatic archiving using a bot. If you have any questions, place a {{help me}} notice on your talk page, or go to the help desk. Thank you. --Jax 0677 (talk) 00:34, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
