== Retirement ==
{{hat|Enough. MSJapan obviously doesn't want to discuss this further.}}
My intent wasn't to get you to retire. My intent was to get you to lay off Kvng. If you can do that, it's perfectly fine to contribute in whatever other ways you find suitable. <span style="border:1px solid;background:#800080">[[User:Purplebackpack89|<span style="color:#FFCC00">p</span>]][[User talk:Purplebackpack89|<span style="color:#FFCC00;">b</span>]][[User:Purplebackpack89/C|<span style="color:#FFCC00;">p</span>]]</span> 17:44, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
:First of all, you interjected yourself into an ANI that had nothing to do with you, after trolling another editor in another ANI that had nothing to do with you. Second of all, Kvng is a big boy - if he's got a problem with me personally, he doesn't need you to "protect" him. Thirdly, because ''you'' perceive a personal problem instead of a content problem, you're going to harass my contribs, sling accusations, and then tell me what I can and cannot do on Wikipedia when the editor in question maintains an open list precisely for outside review? Nope, sorry. This is a volunteer organization, and I don't need the aggravation, from you or anyone else. [[User:MSJapan|MSJapan]] ([[User talk:MSJapan#top|talk]]) 18:36, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
::Your actions seem duplicitous. What you're saying boils down to, "it's acceptable for you to monitor Kvng's contributions, but it's somehow unacceptable for me to monitor yours". <span style="border:1px solid;background:#800080">[[User:Purplebackpack89|<span style="color:#FFCC00">p</span>]][[User talk:Purplebackpack89|<span style="color:#FFCC00;">b</span>]][[User:Purplebackpack89/C|<span style="color:#FFCC00;">p</span>]]</span> 18:45, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
:::No, it's not acceptable for you to tell me that I can do whatever I want besides AfD a certain user's content or you're going to harass me about it until I go away. You can monitor all you want, but here's the difference: I AfDed Kvng's material, but I didn't say "Bad PROD cuz Kvng sucks"; I gave a policy-based reason for my statement, and didn't even mention him. You, OTOH, said "MSJ AfDed this because he doesn't like Kvng's actions" and called the action disruptive. That's not a content statement, that's a personal attack, and because you've indicated you're doing it on purpose, it's harassment, and that's not what I'm here for. The fact that you can't differentiate between your actions and mine also renders this discussion pointless. You win, now go away, because I certainly am. [[User:MSJapan|MSJapan]] ([[User talk:MSJapan#top|talk]]) 19:34, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
::::You did kind of say "bad PROD cuz Kvng sucks" in your ANI though. You continually pushed for sanctioning/punishing Kvng even though one attempt at doing so failed. And, yes, I ''do'' think you went too far on trying to punish/sanction Kvng; I also think there was ''some'' merit to his declining of the PRODs in the articles and I DO think YOU harassed him with your actions of the past 24 hours. However, ''I'' am not trying to sanction/punish you in any way other than to get you to drop the stick. I think you're both too angry at Kvng AND too angry at me. You certainly shouldn't leave the entire project because we disagreed with you on this one aspect of it. <span style="border:1px solid;background:#800080">[[User:Purplebackpack89|<span style="color:#FFCC00">p</span>]][[User talk:Purplebackpack89|<span style="color:#FFCC00;">b</span>]][[User:Purplebackpack89/C|<span style="color:#FFCC00;">p</span>]]</span> 20:23, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

== Inappropriate redirect suppressions ==

[[Special:Diff/723944408|"Kohail brother murder case" to "Kohail murder case"]] ([[Kohail brother murder case]] / [[Kohail murder case]]) and [[Special:Diff/724521755|"Research lodge" to "Research Lodge"]] ([[Research lodge]] / [[Research Lodge]]) ([[Special:log/MSJapan]]) don't appear to meet any of the [[Wikipedia:Page mover#Suppress redirect criteria|criteria for redirect suppression]] or [[WP:CSD|criteria for speedy deletion]]. Unless I'm missing something: the proper process would have been to list these longstanding titles at [[WP:RFD|RfD]], if deletion was desired, per the [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|deletion policy]]. Pinging [[User:Nakon|Nakon]] the administrator who granted you this permission for input.<small>—[[User:Godsy|<span style="color:MediumSpringGreen;">Godsy</span>]]<sup>([[User_talk:Godsy|TALK]]</sup><sub style="margin-left:-2.0ex;">[[Special:Contributions/Godsy|<span style="color:Goldenrod;">CONT</span>]])</sub></small> 03:18, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
:I've retired, but here's my rationale: the Kohail title was an unambiguous error; it's not grammatically correct, nor does it portray the situation accurately, nor is the case referred to as such in the news sources - two brother'''s''' were involved, neither of them was the victim. So I chose a related title that would at least get the search hit.
:"Research Lodge" was moved without respect for its existence as a proper noun, which per WP naming conventions, should remain capitalized, as we did with [[Grand Lodge]]; so I moved it back in accordance with policy. Again, I've retired, so whether I have the permission or not is wholly irrelevant at this point, and it's not really going to matter to me if you move it back. [[User:MSJapan|MSJapan]] ([[User talk:MSJapan#top|talk]]) 03:30, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
::I don't think the first title was ''unambiguously'' created in error and therefore eligible for [[WP:CSD#G6]]/[[WP:PM/C#3]], and your second justification gives no criteria for deletion or suppression. I have no problem with the moves themselves, rather with the suppression of the former titles, which should have became redirects in these cases. The two now deleted titles should be created as redirects. If you ever choose to return to editing, I believe further similar suppressions of that nature (i.e. unilateral deletions of longstanding titles that don't meet a deletion or suppression criteria) would be unacceptable, and likely result in [[Wikipedia:Page mover#Criteria for revocation|revocation of the permission]].<small>—[[User:Godsy|<span style="color:MediumSpringGreen;">Godsy</span>]]<sup>([[User_talk:Godsy|TALK]]</sup><sub style="margin-left:-2.0ex;">[[Special:Contributions/Godsy|<span style="color:Goldenrod;">CONT</span>]])</sub></small> 03:51, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

== PROD, etc. ==

[https://en.chped.com/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Proposed_deletion&diff=725596612&oldid=725092896 This] seems misplaced. You may want to consider moving it (or removing it). There's not really anything we can do on that page to take action against someone's personal attacks or a particular user's behavior. "How many problematic actions..." sounds like an ANI thread rather than something actionable on the level of policy/guideline interpretation/wording.

In my unsolicited opinion, however, if there are continued issues with Kvng, it would be best to let someone else bring them back to ANI (or to wait a long while first). Two reasons: First, it would be easy to get the sense that you're in too deep at the moment, which takes away from any valid point you may have. Second, the diff from Kvng ''could'' be construed as a personal attack, but that sort of comment is made many times at AfD every day. Inappropriate? Yes, but probably not actionable by itself (and can't really be tacked onto another thread that was ''just'' closed without action). Plenty of other editors took notice of the issues and can bring Kvng back to ANI if need be.

So anyway, I'd consider either removing the comment at WT:PROD and/or replacing it with a specific question/proposal regarding wording or interpretation of that guideline, without focusing on Kvng. Or feel free to remove this potentially unwanted advice :) &mdash; <tt>[[User:Rhododendrites|<span style="font-size:90%;letter-spacing:1px;text-shadow:0px -1px 0px Indigo;">Rhododendrites</span>]] <sup style="font-size:80%;">[[User_talk:Rhododendrites|talk]]</sup></tt> \\ 18:10, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
:{{ping|Rhododendrites}} There have been several threads on PROD about Kvng's editing (which is more to what I was aiming at, not the ANI). Actionable or not, the editing behavior Kvng displayed is directly related to his function as a PROD patroller, and those folks at PROD need to be aware of what he's doing, because he's telling people he'll get better, he's learned, and he hasn't. So the AGF has to run out at some point.

:If I had to venture a guess, the real problem is that Kvng is a staunch inclusionist to the point of wanting to keep everything, and since he knows he can keep anything that's prodded if he deprods, that's what he does, except he doesn't have the policy knowledge to back up the majority of what he's deprodding. That simply isn't a diligent PROD patroller, and it's not beneficial to the project.

:All that being said, "Inclusionist", "Deletionist", whatever, doesn't matter - one can have whatever opinion one wants until they start ''ad hominem''-ing people because of that stance. Want to keep every PROD, or delete every PROD? Then you need to be able to handle the fact that you might be wrong every once in a while, and one would have a much better rate if one was aware of the relevant criteria. Hell, I AfDed something because the rationale was "found on a map", and did it wrong because I simply ''wasn't aware'' of a policy. Now, rather than tell me to go screw because I was "wrong" and "don't ever nom anything ever again you rotten @#%^$^*$&&!!!!!!", an editor pointed me at the policy and told me to fix the nom so it complied with the policy. So I did.

:Honestly? This is SiTrew all over again. An editor self-appoints to take on a task that they think no one else does, gets obsessed with getting it done, makes mistakes through lack of diligence, rationalizes the mistakes as a corollary to workload, and then starts having editor interaction problems as a result. It'll probably end up at ANI if it continues anyway, as that's what happened the last time. [[User:MSJapan|MSJapan]] ([[User talk:MSJapan#top|talk]]) 19:11, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

::Rhododendrites is right, MSJapan: you need to drop the stick and back away. You said, "the AGF has to run out at some point." The AGF of your actions will also run out soon. It already has with me; I believe you're too concerned about getting Kvng punished right now at the expense of other things, like improving the project. You're essentially forum-shopping at this point; you've taken it to several different venues in the past few days. The ANI and your message to HighInBC resulted in no sanctions and the PROD talk complaint isn't going to result in sanctions either. I've seen what you're doing play out before too, as both you and Kvng. Quite often, the result for people like you who forum-shop on the same issue is a) future things they post on noticeboards aren't taken seriously, or b) they get with a boomerang and get sanctions themselves. I think you're a worthy enough editor that I don't want that to happen to you.

::He's also right about what to do next: wait about a month and see what he's done in that time. If he really is as bad as you think, you'll have enough new bad examples to justify the punishment you want. You ''have'' succeeded in getting more scrutiny of Kvng's edits, so it's fairly likely that, if there are MAJOR problems before the month, somebody will address them. <span style="border:1px solid;background:#800080">[[User:Purplebackpack89|<span style="color:#FFCC00">p</span>]][[User talk:Purplebackpack89|<span style="color:#FFCC00;">b</span>]][[User:Purplebackpack89/C|<span style="color:#FFCC00;">p</span>]]</span> 21:58, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

== [[Kont Bank]] ==

Hi hi, I may be missing a trick here, but could you explain what about [[Kont Bank]] made it an attack page? I'm just not seeing it personally, thank you {{p}} -- [[User:Samtar|'''sam'''''tar'']] <sup><small>[[User_talk:Samtar|talk]] or [[Special:Contributions/Samtar|stalk]]</small></sup> 10:02, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

:{{ping|Samtar}} One's iffy, one's not. "''Iranian entrepreneur Babak Zanjani, who has invested into several Tajik businesses, including a bank, an airline, a taxi service and a bus terminal that Tajik President Imomali Rahmon himself helped inaugurate in March 2013.[3]''" - could imply foreign influence with government approval.

:"The bank is under scrutiny by the US Treasury Service, as a possible money laundering entity which moves large sums of oil-related money on behalf the Iranian government.[3]" - basically a negative statement, and there are no positive statements made in the article.

:Therefore, I think the article is aimed simply at pointing out what's "wrong" with the bank. I'd also note the same author said essentially the same thing about the [[Agroinvestbank]] article he created as well, that it was run by a foreigner and was being investigated.

==[[Bengay]]==
I'm going to revert your redirect of [[Bengay]] again but I will go ahead and nominate this for deletion so we can discuss its fate. [[WP:BRD]] doesn't seem to be working between the two of us. ~[[User:Kvng|Kvng]] ([[User talk:Kvng|talk]]) 16:40, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
:No, the problem is that if you ask for a reason and don't like it, then you ignore it, and that's not how this works. Your version of "discussion" is "let me tell you why we should keep this, using reasoning that is not in line with policy" and that's it. When you think a radio station or a TV show should be kept because it's "national" and then the articles turn out to be ''hoaxes'', that's a problem. When your keep rationale is to "avoid redlinks" while admitting the article fails GNG, that's a problem. The faults aren't those of other people in this case.

== Zadara Storage ==

Hello! I reverted Zadara Storage back to the more cut down version I had a few weeks back, I don't mean to step on your toes, I just think it's still a bit too much BS with your cutdown version. Feel free to revert me if you think I'm wrong. [[User:Brandon|Brandon]] ([[User talk:Brandon|talk]]) 06:00, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
:{{ping|Brandon}} I can definitely see where there might be a [[WP:PROMO]] issue still outstanding, but I was erring on the side of the tech being important (which has admittedly not been shown). Therefore, I think the rv is fine. I hadn't realized the COI template had been removed, however, and there's been recent activity that still looks COI to me. I didn't dig into the history, because there was no template to clue me in to do so, but I will do that now, and probably go to COIN or ANI, depending on how bad it is, and if any prior admin action has occurred.

== Masonic Honors ==

I wanted to list the abbreviations of Masonic titles used after names - which are in the style of honors like degrees, medals, and knighthoods. That's what was implied. The Savage Club's Masonic branch listed its founding members with such acronyms appended to their names and I wanted to list them for the edification of the readers of the article.[[User:Hotspur23|Hotspur23]] ([[User talk:Hotspur23|talk]])
:{{ping|Hotspur23}} - I see. There's only one slight error, though, and that is that those are there ''because'' they were appointed to those positions. The interesting thing is that the people themselves often don't use them in correspondence - ''other people'' tend to stick them on there. Therefore, you're kind of veering off ''slightly'' in the wrong direction, but not entirely. You make a good point regarding the initialisms, so I think what I'm going to do is revert it for the moment, find a source to add to the article explaining the usage, and add it to all of the offices to which it applies.

[[File:House near the northern coast of Pulau Ubin, Singapore - 20050803.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]
Hey MSJapan. You know, I respect most of your rationales at AfD. I am also usually in agreement with your views on notability. Which is why I feel saddened when I see stuff like [https://en.chped.com/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FMedia_Worldwide_Limited&type=revision&diff=726506177&oldid=726494414 this]. If you don't mind, could you please retract/strike [https://en.chped.com/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FMedia_Worldwide_Limited&type=revision&diff=726506177&oldid=726494414 this] (please remove the last 2 sentences at least). Sorry, for this. I understand that it is human to feel angry when there is disagreement. But it is best to reply based on guidelines/policies. I myself do not agree with many editors at AfD, but whenever I feel I am getting angry, I try to check myself and reply only about the facts. This is important. It is OK to have disagreements, but let's only use facts in a discussion, not an editor's behaviour.
<br>The image on the right is one of my favourite places in Singapore, [[Pulau Ubin]]. I visit it whenever I am feeling stressed; it is one of the only rural places left in the concrete jungle of Singapore. When I walk through these sylvan paths, I forget everything that caused me to be angry. If I can't visit, I just open my photo album and look through the photos. I hope this photo makes you calm down as well.{{smiley}} --[[User:Lemongirl942|Lemongirl942]] ([[User talk:Lemongirl942|talk]]) 04:01, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

:{{ping|Mike Searson}} - Not my job to do that. I personally could care less either wat, and I can't answer the question because I had nothing to do with it. However, it is easier to assume a conspiracy than an error, or maybe ask the person who did it? This is precisely my point - you don't agree with it, so it's an "obvious conspiracy" done on purpose, right, so rather than go ask, you'd rather be aggressive and make baseless accusations?

Ask manufacturer and they will tell you that their product is the best. Is this a reliable source?

==[[DZXL]] overzealous redirection==
Hi there, I've noticed that you've redirect the article [[DZXL]] to its parent article. But I found out that it was too much overzealous for a redirection. The station itself was existed, and somehow if you keep searching for a most reliable sources, you may be understand. But I'm telling you, don't be too overzealous with your actions here as it may seem to me that you've only basing for some templates that was posted there. Sometimes, you have to find sources of your own. Don't be a biter here.

:Well anyway, at some point, you're right. Maybe it will be more suitable to find secondary or tertiary sources for this, rather than their main website itself. But I want to tell you, unlike Japan, Philippine broadcasting is very '''PRIVATIVE''' and very '''CAUTIOUS''' when it comes to their network profile and history, so its not easy to find more sources for verification of its existense. I hope you won't mind, but let that page stayed that way for now, though I'm still not convinced that such existing radio stations here in PHL needs to redirect to its main station, just because it fails to search for more than trustable sources.

==Eshal Fayyaz==
Respected Sir, as I edited page of [[Eshal Fayyaz]] yesterday, but I think you didn't like the changes though I followed Wiki policies and the tone was neutral. You have nominated page earlier for deletion, so I think you are considering it a matter of your ego (Pardon me if I am wrong) and you reverted all the changes though they were all credible. You also mentioned on AfD page that references are blog based, Sir I request you to check again they are not blogs, either they are fashion websites, magazine websites or Pakistan TV industry websites. I am not attached to Eshal in any way neither monetarily nor in any other relation, being a Wikipedian and native here I know she has earned great popularity recently, though its her first debut in TV serials but She did lead role. So be kind try to verify and contribute positively. Though article was a mess but later as you cleaned it and I contributed it can be a good article and I promise to make more neutral contributions. She has been brand ambassador of many renowned brands here, great model and a new face in acting. Here are Wikipedia policy for nomination of Deletion you should go through it again.

'''So''' I believe this is not a hopeless case and we should give a chance to other native editors who know her well. '''Power Brings Responsibility, we should be optimistic and give a chance to others too.'''

:No, you did not follow policies. You replaced material that was not written in an encyclopedic tone. You felt that a photo gallery with no text of Bina Sultan was an appropriate reference for Eshal Fayyaz. You apparently also felt that a source on Pakistan Fashion Week that did not mention Eshal Fayyaz was an appropriate source for Eshal Fayyaz. There's no "optimism" required. The quality of these sites is generally poor, and they all look like personal sites.

:I have already explained to you that models are generally not notable. As a new actress with ''one'' acting credit to her name, she isn't notable as an actress, either. I have stated to you what the policies are. I have in fact looked at every source in the article, and they are by and large very poor sites. I tried to actually get more material out of one of the interviews, but there was nothing there. [[User:MSJapan|MSJapan]] ([[User talk:MSJapan#top|talk]]) 06:18, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

'''Make it right, Deleting is not a good option'''

Sorry if I offend you, but don't make it an ego issue. The changes I made are legitimate, because I provided reference for each line I wrote. If you think that my tone was not right you can make it right being much senior to me I would be looking for help to improve it. Otherwise it would just like the situation of a painter who painted a painting and asked for mistakes and there were marks all over the painting, but when asked to correct the mistakes there was not a single mark. Criticism is easy, correction is difficult.

[[User:The Reader Ahmed|The Reader Ahmed]] ([[User talk:The Reader Ahmed|talk]]) 08:22, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

:Your sources are not [[WP:RS]]. The tone is not encyclopedic. The content is not appropriate. I'm telling you you are adding things that you should not be, and instead of accepting that, you're telling me it's an ego problem. The "problem" is that you absolutely want to keep this article. For someone ''without'' a vested interest, you shouldn't be this hardline about it. The article ''does not'' and ''will not'' meet the standards required. You either [[WP:CIR|don't understand]] or simply [[WP:IDHT|don't want to listen]]; I don't know which it is, but another editor has even said that there is nothing sufficient. You're not doing anything to convince anyone otherwise. [[User:MSJapan|MSJapan]] ([[User talk:MSJapan#top|talk]]) 17:13, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

::{{ping|E.M.Gregory}} The problem is that your positions are inconsistent, and they're based on whatever your opinion is, not sources, and you will never acknowledge that your position is incorrect. Let's illustrate:

::As for the links you cite as "attacks", you cited a policy incorrectly in the Susman AfD, and also indicated that AUTHOR and DIRECTOR were different policies. That's not an opinion - I provided the text of the correctly cited policy, and AUTHOR and DIRECTOR are both the same policy. You haven't addressed a fundamental error in the argument, nor did you refute any of Lemongirl's points. Instead, you keep pasting in more trivial sources without addressing the fact that a) they're all from Susman's local area; b) they're all trivial mentions of Susman; and c) the sources are not addressing the argument for "a significant body of work." Two reviews or six, ''one play'' is ''one play''. You are equating the fact that Susman is "doing something" with the fact that "Susman is notable for doing it." In other words, you're contrary to [[WP:ENN]] in addition to any other lack of meeting policies.
:::Your assertions above are flatly untrue.[[User:E.M.Gregory|E.M.Gregory]] ([[User talk:E.M.Gregory|talk]]) 20:22, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
::Meanwhile, in the process of carrying on the Susman argument where he's notable despite trivial mentions, you said on the Lohani AfD that "quotations from significant media are important to establish notability." You did not show anything like that on Susman at all, but Susman has to be notable, and Lohani is not, based on effectively the same level of sourcing. Lohani's not notable, but the fact that you're focused more on socking shows me that because you're mad about the socking, Lohani's not notable - the lack of sourcing is secondary.
:::Nonsense.[[User:E.M.Gregory|E.M.Gregory]] ([[User talk:E.M.Gregory|talk]]) 20:22, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
::Put simply, '''you have ulterior motives and biased editing.''' I think that's why you try to write articles on every single Israeli ever shot by a Palestinian; that's why you admitted you wrote Whitaker because you were mad about Whitaker's behavior. That's why you wrote IKEA stabbing because it was "Muslim terrorism" (which it was ''not''), and you took one quote by a fringe politician and called it "a matter of national debate." Neither was true. Then we find out you were "in and out of Sweden" and "fascinated" by the subject. These revelations come months or years after the fact. In short, you had a bias before you ever started on those topics, and I think that's true of the majority of your contributions.
:::Nonsense on wheels, the fact that I am interested in and knowledgeable about a topic is hardly a bar to good editing[[User:E.M.Gregory|E.M.Gregory]] ([[User talk:E.M.Gregory|talk]]) 20:22, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
::In a nutshell, you do not edit impartially in line with sources, but in line with your opinion, and you consistently hide that fact (until it comes out). Problem is, when you reveal the bias, the neutrality of the whole editing corpus is suspect (rather a lot like an academic who plagiarizes, oddly enough). In determining notability or the lack thereof, you consistently value ''your personal opinion'' of a subject far above what ''actual facts indicate'' about the subject, and minimize or ignore anything contrary to your already-established opinion. You have been doing this during your entire tenure here, and that is why people keep bringing you to ANI for the same things repeatedly. The only reason you're not banned is because people have gotten much more lenient over the years. When you start editing impartially yourself, and responding to claims with sources instead of ignoring them, then there might not be so much of an issue overall.

== Centre Point ==

Dear MS Japan,

Many thanks for reviewing the Centre Point wikipedia page. However, I was wondering if you could let me know if you can correct the remaining inaccuracies? For example, Centre Point is no longer an office building and is 34-storeys high, as mentioned in the references I have included on my request. Also, a number of the references I included mentioned a new square being built at the bottom of the tower so I was wondering if this could also be added? the text which mentions that a piazza is being demolished has no references and is incorrect. If I should include this on the talk page for Centre Point please let me know.

Many thanks

== Rosary templates ==

Hi MSJapan, saw your request at [[WP:RMT]] about {{tl|The rosary sidebar}}. FYI, the template {{tl|The rosary}} is potentially worth discussion as well. I'm not an expert in the topic, but I'm inclined to believe that "Rosary" is typically capitalized. Just a friendly FYI. (The mover, it appears, has been sufficiently warned 2 months ago.) — [[User:Andy M. Wang|'''''Andy&nbsp;W.''''']]&nbsp;<span style="font-size:88%">('''[[User talk:Andy M.

:{{ping|Andy M. Wang}}: Thanks for the heads-up. There's a double-move on that second template, and maybe a split or a namespace switch or something.

::Wait, [https://en.chped.com/w/index.php?title=Template:The_Rosary&action=history that navbox] appears to have been "The Rosary". I think the rosary ''sidebar'' was moved several times to try to distinguish between the navbox. I also just realized you're a page mover. Technically, you're able to correct the page move by swapping [[Template:The rosary sidebar]] and [[Template:Rosary]] via [[WP:PMVR#rr]] (though it can be a tricky process the first time it's done). In this case, I'd probably leave the move to an admin (because I think it involves deleting some of the redirects resulting from the move. — [[User:Andy M.

Hello everyone, and welcome to the September 2016 GOCE newsletter.

[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/September 2016|>>> Sign up for the September Drive, already in progress! <<<]]

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/July 2016|July Drive]]''': The July drive was a roaring success. We set out to remove '''April, May, and June 2015''' from our backlog (our 149 oldest articles), and by 23 July, we were done with those months. We added '''July 2015''' (66 articles) and copy-edited 37 of those. We also handled all of the remaining Requests from June 2016. Well done! Overall, we recorded copy edits to 240 articles by 20 editors, reducing our total backlog to 13 months and 1,656 articles, the second-lowest month-end total ever.

'''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Blitzes/August 2016|August Blitz]]''': this one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 21 through 27 August; the theme was '''sports-related articles''' in honor of the 2016 Summer Olympics. Of the eight editors who signed up, five editors removed 11 articles from the backlog. A quiet blitz – everyone must be on vacation. Barnstars and rollover totals are located [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Blitzes/August_2016/Barnstars|here]]. Thanks to all editors who took part.

Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators: {{noping|Jonesey95}}, {{noping|Corinne}} and {{noping|Tdlsk}}.

==Disambiguation link notification for September 10==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[Lowell Spinners]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[KBO]] ([http://dispenser.homenet.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Lowell_Spinners check to confirm]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[http://dispenser.homenet.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Lowell_Spinners fix with Dab solver]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these [[User:DPL bot|opt-out instructions]]. Thanks, [[User:DPL bot|DPL bot]] ([[User talk:DPL bot|talk]]) 10:52, 10 September 2016 (UTC)

== Rename battle ==

Greetings

*It is inappropriate to retain the label wrong [[Battle of Nur Shams]], after the submission of all adequate evidence that this battle called the [[Battle of Anabta]].

== Doppel-Sport Panoramic Camera ==

Hi, you have removed my pictures from a wikipedia workshop. Your comment was "failed to see the utility of this", while we added pictures of real museum collection item into a page that had only a sketch.

== Updating links on Freemasonry page ==

@MSJAPAN , greetings from Tokyo No.2. I am new to Wikipedia and would like to update some links in some Masonic articles as the content has moved to a new site.
How would I go about that?
