@Doczilla: In a conversation with Bluerasberry (talk · contribs) and Pharos (talk · contribs), your name came up as a potential panelist or moderator for a Wikipedia/Wikimedia panel. Would you be interested? I am also looking to see if mxn (talk · contribs) is interested as well, as his work on Vietnamese Wikipedia, I think would be an interested story to tell.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 00:02, 5 April 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-04-05T00:02:00.000Z","author":"RightCowLeftCoast","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-RightCowLeftCoast-2017-04-05T00:02:00.000Z-SDCC_2017_Panel_proposal","replies":["c-Bluerasberry-2017-04-05T14:12:00.000Z-RightCowLeftCoast-2017-04-05T00:02:00.000Z","c-RightCowLeftCoast-2017-04-05T18:32:00.000Z-RightCowLeftCoast-2017-04-05T00:02:00.000Z","c-Psanchez820-2017-04-05T19:40:00.000Z-RightCowLeftCoast-2017-04-05T00:02:00.000Z"]}}-->

Doczilla, I read on your user page that you have presented at Comic Con in the past. RightCow is in San Diego, I am in New York with the Wikipedians there, and we have been wondering when and how we should present Wikipedia at a Comic Con. It seems like there are already Wikipedians attending in both San Diego and NYC. Do you have any thoughts on what sort of presentation might be right for this crowd? Would you like to talk more about a panel for this year?

Thanks for thinking of me. Yes, I've been on panels there and at many other cons. I'm usually on at least four SDCC panels each year. I've always thought a panel about Wikipedia could be interesting if done right, so I'm totally up for this.

@Psanchez820 and Mxn:, would you be interested in being on this panel as well? @Doczilla: would you be interested in moderating this panel?

How does this sound like for a panel description:

Title: Wikipedia: The Free Encyclopedia
Description: Wikipedia is one of the most popular websites on the internet, and is the most popular general reference work. Millions have contributed edits, to create a near endless amount of articles, in dozens of languages (including Klingon, and American Sign Language (in incubator stage)). Come and listen to some of the many editors of Wikipedia,-list of panelists will be added here- learn how you too can become a user of Wikipedia, and ask questions to expand your knowledge.

I am thinking that a maximum of 5 panelist would be good, giving each 6 minutes to talk, allowing for 20 minutes of questions (as panels are an hour each, but they usually ask to give time at the beginning and end of your hour for a buffer for the panel before and after).--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 18:32, 5 April 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-04-05T18:32:00.000Z","author":"RightCowLeftCoast","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-RightCowLeftCoast-2017-04-05T18:32:00.000Z-RightCowLeftCoast-2017-04-05T00:02:00.000Z","replies":["c-Doczilla-2017-04-05T18:55:00.000Z-RightCowLeftCoast-2017-04-05T18:32:00.000Z"]}}-->

The title needs something to jazz it up and grab attention, maybe a subtitle referring to things like Klingon language. The convention organizers get 4 or 5 times as many submissions as they can accept, so we really need to grab their attention. This does have an advantage over some topics because SDCC needs educational panels to reinforce their nonprofit status.

Wow! thanks for thinking of me! I would be very interested in being in the panel. I haven't been on panels like this before but I think that the Comic Con crowd could definitely be interested in Wikipedia. It could include a look at a specific article and showing them what happens "Behind the edit button" literally?

@Pharos and Mxn: I am waiting to hear back from you two, and then I would think that would make five people for the panel, including @Doczilla, Psanchez820, and Bluerasberry:.

What about recruiting some comic book or film writer (someone who's likely to be at Comic-Con anyway) to discuss the Wikipedia pages about him/herself and projects he/she worked on? That might both raise the odds that the panel is accepted and then help attract an audience.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Military history of Asian Americans, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Canton and Changchow. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

@Thanos54!: such discussion is best to be done on the talk page of the article, and not my talk page.

On 4 June 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Russian–Syrian hospital bombing campaign, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Russia has denied claims that it has attacked hospitals in Syria? You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Russian–Syrian hospital bombing campaign), 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.

Thanks for uploading File:Wataru Misaka 1958.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017.

RCLC, I completely understand your concerns regarding gun politics. I'm trying to stick to policies as much as possible in a few related areas [[1]], [[2]],["Media_campaigns"_section] and [[3]]. It's not easy as I feel like I'm trying to balance accusations of being an NRA shill with that seems to be reasonable, policy based edits. Anyway, I do understand your view that the original act wasn't related to gun politics and thus it shouldn't included. The automotive RFC (the last one) is a useful reference because it helped establish that just because a thing (a car) featured prominently in a notable thing/event (crime) doesn't mean that crime is commonly associated with that crime. Thus the Ford F-650 article doesn't talk about the Oklahoma City bombing even though most articles about the crime mention a Ford F-600. But in the case of the Dick Act it does seem like most references I found via a quick Google search do talk about the gun control angle so that's why I would lean in that direction. Just wanted to let you know I really do get your POV here and I have a few scars to prove it.

"In the US Census, people with origins or ancestry in the Far East, Southeast Asia, and the Indian subcontinent are classified as part of the Asian race;[21] while those with origins or ancestry in North Asia (Russians, Siberians), Central Asia (Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Turkmens, etc.), Western Asia (diaspora Jews, Turks, Persians, West Asian Arabs, etc.), and the Caucasus (Georgians, Armenians, Azeris) are classified as "white" or "Middle Eastern".[22][23][24][25]"

This passage isn't claiming that the above mentioned groups are Asian-American. Instead it is clarifying the US definition of Asian by pointing out how Middle Easterners, Central Asians, and Russians are not included even though they are geographically of Asian origin. I added Israelis next to diaspora Jews (i.e. Jewish Americans) because they are more or less the same people.

I hope that makes sense.

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

• tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
• adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
• updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
• creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

You wrote this appraisal on my Nolder Did You Know nominations page : "This article appears to be a translation from the Italian wiki, the hook appears to be cited, but not all paragraphs in the body of the article have a citation, and no QPQ appears to have been done RightCowLeftCoast"

It takes a lot of time to create an article and get it to the DYK stage, and to have someone dismiss it as an article I had "translated", an article that doesn't happen to exist -- is hugely insulting and disrectful. Did you assume this because two of the sources are in Italian? That's how difficult it was to get sources on this article. It's already gotten to the point where its extremely difficult to get an article through the DYK nomination process, it now involves a phallanx of over-eager DYK enforces, and yet still many of the DYK's that do get through are insipid or just plain promotional. But thanks for accusing me of "translating" another article; it just clarifies for me that much of this effort is a waste of time. 842U (talk) 21:20, 7 April 2018 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-04-07T21:20:00.000Z","author":"842U","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-842U-2018-04-07T21:20:00.000Z-Nolder","replies":["c-RightCowLeftCoast-2018-04-07T21:26:00.000Z-842U-2018-04-07T21:20:00.000Z"]}}-->

DUDE, PLEASE STOP ACCUSING ME OF TRANSLATING THE ARTICLE. THERE IS NOT AN ITALIAN ARTICLE TO TRANSATE FROM. I DID NOT TRANSLATE SOMEONE ELSE'S ARTICLE. I USED TWO SOURCES THAT ARE SHOWN IN ITALIAN. PERIOD.

On 21 April 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Groom Mine, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Groom Mine has a view over Area 51? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Groom Mine. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Groom Mine), 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.
