AFDs
Hello, Visviva,
I just wanted to say that your participation is a welcome addition to AFD land. We get so many new editors jumping into deletion discussions, casting "votes" that thoughtful comments and evaluations of articles and their sources is noticed and appreciated. We have a turnover in participation in AFDs so thank you for giving your time and attention to helping determining what happens with articles on the project. LizRead!Talk!04:42, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You know, I go through most AFD daily log pages each day and tonight I saw a new editor cast votes of "per Visviva" on 8 or 9 different AFDs. You've got a fan! They are a very precocious new editor and show that a little knowledge of Wikipedia policy can be used as a weapon sometimes. I lost my temper with them on one AFD so I have to remember to be patient. LizRead!Talk!07:41, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Your dedication to this work is truly impressive. Wikipedia is lucky to have you and so are all of us! The new user seems sincere and I hope things go well for them, although AFD is an awfully rough place to start out. -- Visviva (talk) 03:07, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello! I am very new to Wikipedia and feel as though I'm being harassed by another user who focuses on the area my first edit proposal in a talkpage was. I'm very confused about what I am supposed to do about this and am on the verge of quitting already.
Hi AevumNova, welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for trying to contribute. I hope you'll stay with us, and I'm really sorry that you're having such a tough time. It seems to me that the discussion has gotten a little too personal, and in my experience the best thing for that is to take a step back and let things cool down. I did notice in the DRN discussion that you mentioned you were struggling with the complexity of the Wikipedia rules. I know someone else made this suggestion already, but I think you might find this whole situation easier to navigate if you spent some time working in less exhausting areas first. I can understand if that isn't a very satisfying answer, though.
Protected pages tend to have protectors hanging around who are very skeptical of proposed changes and also sometimes of the proposer's motives (sometimes for good reasons). Talk:Holodomor in particular is always going to be a pretty tough and skeptical crowd. I think you made some good points, but I noticed that you seemed to be having a hard time communicating to other editors the exact edits that you wanted made. I think you might get a clearer idea of how to do that if you get some firsthand experience doing non-controversial editing work elsewhere first.
Anyway, sorry I can't be more helpful, but again, I really appreciate your efforts to make Wikipedia better, and I hope you'll stay with us. -- Visviva (talk) 18:43, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate it. I am just going to need to at least take a break. This has just been really disheartening. Especially being accused sometimes subtlety and sometimes less so of being aligned with IRL forces I am vehemently against. AevumNova (talk) 18:45, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think I may have found a very good editor who might help you with Australian aspects of this topic. I took the liberty of asking already at User talk:Jack4576/Archive 2#A new challenge?.
Thanks for taking this on!
Hello! I just closed this discussion with a "merge" as you suggested. If you're still willing to complete the merge, it would certainly be appreciated. Joyous!Noise!05:48, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We are partnering with the Indiana State Fair to offer FREE tickets to the fair for Wikipedians! We will be meeting on July 30th at 10am to pass out tickets and have a quick info session before we attend the fair (feel free to branch off and share your accomplishments on the Meetup page later!) Detailed instructions on how the day will go is available on the Meetup page! We hope you'll join us to edit about things related to fair (historic buildings, foods, animals, activities, and the fair itself).
All levels of experience are welcome! Please RSVP so we know who is coming. We hope you'll join us!

Precious
kisaeng accessibility
Thank you for "joyous immersion" in 2005/06, beginning more than 1000 articles such as History of the kisaeng and Hwang Jini, for opting to include structured information for accessibility's sake, for "if your draft does not contain redlinks, you aren't done", for showing V. viva in its natural habitat, - "text person", you are an awesome Wikipedian!
I've missed your thoughtful, regular presence in AFDs recently. I hope you are just taking some well-deserved time off to enjoy this summer or taking a short WikiBreak. I've detected some discouragement about the current state of the project, feeling which can sink in whenever an editor slows down editing enough to take in the big picture. I've been here 10 years and things have changed, some for the better, others maybe not so. But I would hate for that to keep you from contributing. I value your presence and the civil tone you bring to sometimes very heated deletion discussions. It helps lower the toxicity that can sometimes creep into some discussions. We desperately need to keep competent and polite editors on the project. Thanks. LizRead!Talk!02:02, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, Liz! I appreciate you. I have been a little short on time and spoons lately but am hoping to get back into things shortly. Visviva (talk) 20:33, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Jindo logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

WP:REDUNDANTFORK of Kisaeng#History. Save the introductory paragraph, all the information contained in the article proposed for deletion is copied directly from the main Kisaeng article, where it has also been further improved and expanded upon. The scope of the topic is also likely not broad enough to warrant a separate article to cover its history in the first place.
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.
Good call. I guess we'll see if anyone objects, but it won't be me. I think it's fair to say that this split was not properly done, as I never reduced the source section to a summary. In any case history has not been kind to these "History of X" splits. -- Visviva (talk) 03:39, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! This is User:Luiysia (IRL name is Kelly). My main interests are fashion, music, literature, and history. I am fairly new to Wikipedia editing and I found that there has been very little activity from the Chicago Wikipedia user group since 2020.
I'd like to host a casual meetup in Chicago to celebrate Wikidata Day on Saturday, October 26.
Proposed location is Engine Coffee in the Wicker Park/West Town area, at 11AM.
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Hello! This is User:Luiysia again. At the last meetup, people expressed interest in having a Wikipedia meetup bi-monthly (that is, every other month). So, here's our December meetup!
The meetup will start at The Bourgeois Pig, in the Lincoln Park neighborhood, at 11 AM.
Hi, SClay53, and thanks for your efforts. Unfortunately, for reasons that are probably obvious from that discussion and its outcome, I am not currently disposed to get any further involved with this subject matter. Perhaps some future descendant of today's Wikipedia can do a better job on articles of this kind. More practically: here in the present, if you do choose to pursue your proposed change further, you may want to take a careful gander at WP:RSP and especially the entries for TechCrunch, CNET, Forbes, and Business Insider, on which your proposed change seems to rely rather heavily. (To be clear, I have not attempted to evaluate the specific articles you cite.) -- Visviva (talk) 22:40, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
