Hi! I came across your page and you seem like someone who might be interested in a wikiproject that I've been working to get set up. Specifically it'll be the Housing and Tenant Rights Wikiproject, covering tenant strikes, tenants unions, and more.

Currently me and a few others have been working within a more circumscribed focus at the New York Housing and Tenant Rights Task Force where we've been documenting the history of land ownership and tenant advocacy in the state and city. And over time that has expanded due to the linked history, so it's seems natural to create a broad umbrella group.

If interested, please add your username to sandbox/Housing and Tenant Rights, let us know about what your interests are and other details you want to include. Ill keep working on a proper wikiproject page + the necessary tags, etc. in the meantime. Best regards, LoomCreek (talk) 19:16, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Da Funk 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 ChristieBot, on behalf of Kyle Peake -- Kyle Peake (talk) 13:22, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

The article Da Funk you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Da Funk and Talk:Da Funk/GA1 for issues which need to be addressed.

Hey, I live near Kansas City, so I managed to get some pictures of the rent strike protests! Feel free to leave a note on my page if there's anything else tenant-related in the area that I can help expand coverage on. It was my first KC Tenants event I went to, hence the lack of photos on their page (I'm workin' on it xD). Thanks for penning the article! Catboy69 (talk) 14:54, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello, LunaEclipse. This is a courtesy notice that the copy edit you requested for Selected Ambient Works 85–92 at the Guild of Copy Editors requests page is now complete. All feedback welcome! Cheers, Baffle☿gab 03:41, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

Hi LunaEclipse, I've now finished my copy-edit. I came across an oddity with the John Bush and Anthony Tognazzini reviews on Allmusic; basically, Allmusic had replaced the Bush review with the Tognazzini review at the same URL, so I had to mark the Bush review as "url-status=deviated". Also, the Tognazzini review had been defined twice so I merged the instances into a single citation. Please see my edit summaries for more details. Good luck with the article and cheers, Baffle☿gab.

Hello, LunaEclipse. This is a courtesy notice that the copy edit you requested for ...I Care Because You Do at the Guild of Copy Editors requests page is now complete. All feedback welcome! Cheers, Baffle☿gab 04:21, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Hi LunaEclipse, I've now finished my copy-edit. In "Reception", I found a repeated citation to "Select" magazine; one citation pointed to a scanned version of the magazine and the other was cited to the print version, which is fine. Leaving both citations may be confusing for readers so I merged them using "url=" to point to the scanned image and "archive-url=" to point to the Wayback archive. I also corrected some inaccurately quoted text and noted some uncited text in the section "Tracks". I wasn't expecting these kinds of errors in a current GA. I've left notes in my edit summaries. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 04:21, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

The article Da Funk you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Da Funk for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article.

The page File:Tyler, the Creator - Earfquake.mp3 has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Thank you for making the cool image mockup on Nuzlocke! I wanted to ask you a few things related to the image, so I'd figure I'd run them by you here.

1. Would the Nuzlocke image be better in the article body? I feel it may be worth taking up more body space since you can barely read the text in the lead, and frankly, Terry O'Quinn is less important in the context of this article than the mockup.
2. How did you go about reusing the Paroot image for the diagram? I was considering doing something similar for a recent creation of mine, Shiny Pokémon, by recoloring the Paroot image and including both to visualize how the mechanic worked, but I am admittedly uncertain on the process. Do you have any advice on how this should be accomplished?

Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 01:57, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi. So you wrote that you want sources for artists nationality on a dynamic list, when other dynamic lists do not have references? Here is one example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Serbian_musicians?wprov=sfla1 . The list is based on how the artists are tagged in their profiles. I did not add them by hand on the list. Thank you in advance SeaStarsLights (talk) 19:49, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

SeaStarsLights, an article or list with no sources is prone to be original research i.e. your own thoughts. Wikipedia is a summary of reputable sources written in a way that can be read by the general public, and not a compilation of original thought. If you don't source your claims, editors are going to rightfully assume you made something up. See Help:Referencing for beginners for more information. — 💽 🌙Eclipse 💽 🌹 ⚧ (she/they) ^talk/edits 20:56, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi.

You did not answer my question. I have made an identical list to the Serbian one, which does not have references, but you want the Cypriot one to have. I am again asking, what and why the difference in behavior toward the same type of list (aka a dynamic).

If you want all dynamic lists to have references, I expect you to retreat the ones that do not have any and be republished when they have.

Thank you in advance. SeaStarsLights (talk) 11:06, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

Happy New Year and Happy New WikiCup! The 2025 competition has just begun and all article creators, expanders, improvers and reviewers are welcome to take part. Even if you are a novice editor, we hope the WikiCup will give you a chance to improve your editing skills as you go. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found here. If you have not yet signed up, you can add your name here and the judges will set up your submissions page ready for you to take part. Any questions on the scoring, rules or anything else should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the WikiCup talk page.

For the 2025 WikiCup, we've implemented several changes to the scoring system. The highest-ranking contestants will now receive tournament points at the end of each round, and final rankings are decided by the number of tournament points each contestant has. If you're busy and can't sign up in January, don't worry: Signups are now open throughout the year. To make things fairer for latecomers, the lowest-scoring contestants will no longer be eliminated at the end of each round.

The first round will end on 26 February. The judges for the WikiCup this year are: Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs · email), Epicgenius (talk · contribs · email), Frostly (talk · contribs · email), Guerillero (talk · contribs · email) and Lee Vilenski (talk · contribs · email).

Please do not compare human editors to dogs. Please do not archive Teahouse threads prematurely. Cullen328 (talk) 01:16, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

Cullen328,
1. My intention was not to compare OP to a dog and I apologize if it came off as insulting. I was trying to say there was no point in arguing with them as they were dragging out the discussion.
2. 100% understood. I will not do that again. — 💽 LunaEclipse 💽 🌹 ⚧ ^{(CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST)} 01:20, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

I deeply apologize to anyone I have offended. — 💽 LunaEclipse 💽 🌹 ⚧ ^{(CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST)} 01:38, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

• Hi. Also, there's a bot that sends notification to OP that their Teahouse thread has been archived. It happens only if the designated archive bot (in this case Lowercase sigmabot III) does it. The notifications don't go out if someone else archives the threads. Best to leave the task to the bot. —usernamekiran (talk) 00:35, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
