Thanks for uploading Image:TerriSchiavo2.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Do you think that this idea is sound and could be made into a policy - I posted it here Image talk:Austria Belarus Locator.png. Basically it means that if both countries whose relations are supposed to be depicted don't recognise Kosovo as independent then the map shows Kosovo as part of Serbia. In case one of them does and the other one doesn't, Kosovo border is shown with an interrupted line (alternatively it could be a shaded part of Serbia) and if both countries recognise Kosovo then Kosovo is shown with a full border. What do you think? Can this be turned into an official rule for maps of this sort?

Hmm...I pretty much certainly believe that Belarus will never, ever, going to recognize Kosovo Independence short from either Serbia giving up or a change of leadership in Minsk. I personally believe that the Kosovo/Serbia border should be dashed, like I sometimes see the CIA maps for disputed lands. I am not certain on how this can be applied to all maps, but it is worth trying out.

Will, if I can offer a suggestion, maybe start the article from scratch. I was working with the users to make a possible NPOV version of the article, due to the issues I faced on OTRS, I nuked it. I no longer have access to the service, so I cannot see anything new relevant to the article. I have no other feelings about this DRV, but I would like to see a draft of the NPOV article before I even think we should unlock it.

I tried my hand at trying to reduce some of our SVG flag images by manually typing out reduced code in notepad. The flag I tried doing was Singapore. My earlier results was at Image:Sgtest.svg, but I am always having the problem with the stars. Every time I tried to add the stars using the simple code, Wikimedia and Inkscape think the image is corrupt and won't open/upload it. Since I know you do this pretty well, can you tell me what I am doing wrong or add the stars for me? Thanks.

I have now corrected your file. The <svg> element on your file was missing an xmlns:xlink attribute.
You might also want to run dos2unix or something similar on your files after editing them with notepad, so that newlines are represented with one byte (Unix newlines) instead of two (DOS newlines). --Fibonacci (talk) 08:18, 5 December 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-12-05T08:18:00.000Z","author":"Fibonacci","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Fibonacci-2008-12-05T08:18:00.000Z-Zscout370-2008-12-05T07:56:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I looked around for a bit, and I was unable to find any specific tempo for the anthem. However the Government Information Office's web page states that the song's set in a 莊嚴行板 (Andante Maestoso), but I guess you know that already. Testing with the clips on MOFA's web site and a metronome gets me a ~80 for the instrumental version, and ~90 for the choral version. I think we should stick to Andante Maestoso though. wctaiwan (talk) 12:08, 7 December 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-12-07T12:08:00.000Z","author":"Wctaiwan","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Wctaiwan-2008-12-07T12:08:00.000Z-National_Banner_Song","replies":["c-Zscout370-2008-12-07T19:18:00.000Z-Wctaiwan-2008-12-07T12:08:00.000Z"]}}-->

Heya, I have noticed something weird about this CoA, it exists under 3 different versions: File:CoA of Philippines.png (GFDL), File:Coat of Arms of the Philippines.png (apparently your work, Fair Use), and File:Revised-Coat of Arms of the Philippines.png (CC-by). Do you have any idea of the copyright status of this coat of arms?

The image might have been deleted on the Commons for being a "derivative work" of the Philippines Government. The coat of arms, when it was adopted, was adopted in 1946.

You deleted Image:MountainDew-90s.png with no discussion and only the short comment "I3: Improper license". However it did have a proper license; as a logo consisting of simply an outlined brand name in a custom font, it does fall under {{PD-textlogo}}. So while it is trademarked, it is not—and cannot be—copyrighted. —MJBurrage(T•C)16:45, 22 December 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-12-22T16:45:00.000Z","author":"MJBurrage","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-MJBurrage-2008-12-22T16:45:00.000Z-MountainDew-90s.png","replies":["c-Zscout370-2008-12-22T17:42:00.000Z-MJBurrage-2008-12-22T16:45:00.000Z"]}}-->
I doubt that the image is public domain due to just being a basic font. There was other elements that brought creativity to the logo, such as the stretching of the text and introduction of background elements. So it is not PD-Text.

No font is copyrightable no matter how fancy it is, the outline is a simple geometric tracing of the words. Hence it is a {{PD-textlogo}}.

I agree that the logo would probably be considered copyrighted. There is no harm in treating it as non-free- just add a rationale and remove any unneeded uses.

Hi, I noticed you speedy deleted the article on Socket Mobile as A7 - no assertion of importance or significance. I feel this is a mistake as the article explained that is was listed on NASDAQ which to my mind is a pretty good assertion of importance (I had earlier removed a speedy tag from the article on that basis). It also gets quite a bit of coverage on google news - [1] and google news archive - [2] (much of which could not be used as reliable sources of notability but there is some which I feel could be) from which I feel it is possible notability can be established. Therefore I was hoping you could reconsider the deletion. Thanks.

You wrote on my webpage: I hate to break it to you, but a movie being inside the IMDB is not something to jump up and down about. Just like Wikipedia, the IMDB is a website that wants everyone who has a pulse and types in English to send in information about movies. So that will not work.

Well, what do you think that Wikipedia is?

I been looking at the article and links. If you ask my honest opinion, I feel there is not enough. I checked the website of the Film Festival in Philly; not much is known about it and when I did the search for the "Gay and Lesbian International Film Festival," I always kept on getting the city of Austin. Second, I looked at the second link for "TWIT Magazine." 116 hits in Google and not much coverage anywhere else. The third link, anyone can summarize a film and I don't see what stock the one person has. Honestly, this is not the kind of article that should exist on Wikipedia. You mentioned the IMDB has a "board" that decides what should stay and what should go. In our case, we got one too; this is the second person that has come out and said this article should not exist unless you explain to us and show us why you think it should be here and is notable enough.

This is a film that was released in 2008. What is your authority to decide what should be and should not be on this website. I have been probably editing here just as long as you have. I have a right to introduce information too. I don't go around judging your material. I think that you are simply stating what is important to you and not realizing that the film is in existence and that Wikipedia provides the information to the world.

I have a question about your image of Ezo Republic. I am not able to find any reference regards to the flag; do you have any source? I've gone through this period, reading mostly in Japanese, but I've never seen any source describes the image.

I am an administrator, so I was able to access the deleted image. Honestly, I have no clue where the first image came from. From reading, there was a flag used by the republic at the Battle of Hokkaido, before sailors boarded the Kōtetsu. This is the only thing I saw. And no, I didn't come up with the name of this place; he did.

I've read the Japanese article in Hakodate Senso (the battle of Hakodate), particularly the part in the Miyakowan Kaisen (the Naval Battle of Miyako Bay). I'm quite sure that your reference, "before sailors boarded the Kotetsu" is based on the battle.
In English article goes; "Kaiten approached the enemy ships and raised the Republic of Ezo flag seconds before boarding Kōtetsu."
However, Japanese article never describes "the Republic of Ezo flag". In fact the article says "Nihon Kokki", which literally goes "Flag of Japan" or "Nisshoki", which is "Sun Flag" in other articles.
I want straight to the point: the image should be removed until we have convinced reference. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.246.244.147 (talk) 13:51, 27 December 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-12-27T13:51:00.000Z","author":"96.246.244.147","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-96.246.244.147-2008-12-27T13:51:00.000Z-Flag_of_the_Ezo_Republic","replies":["c-Zscout370-2008-12-27T20:26:00.000Z-96.246.244.147-2008-12-27T13:51:00.000Z"]}}-->
And that is something you can do on your own when it comes to removing the flag. In this case, I just wanted to draw an SVG flag to get rid of a fair use image. Also, I am familiar with the Hinomaru, as I wrote most of the content at the article about the Nation flag of Japan.

I was told it was not supposed to be used in the article space at all. So what I told users is that if they have a problem with a bot, send it my way, and I will deal with it.

Who told you that? As it's not visible on articles, there isn't really in point in removing them. Anyways, the template's documentation page doesn't exclude it and your removal of the template on San Alfonso del Mar makes it appear that my bot is participating in some sort of edit war. Please avoid removing such templates in the future. -- User:Docu
The bot is not participating in an edit war, it just got a few bugs. As I mentioned, if you need help getting a bot fixed, people are here to help you fix it. The purpose of the the template is for userpages, and according to the documentation, once the problem is fixed, then we can remove the template.

The bot doesn't have a bug, it's just that the editors of the page disagree with the general way of formatting the coordinates. As there isn't much use that the bot gets involved in this, the easiest way of fixing this is to add the template. Indeed, once this disagreement no longer persists, it could be removed. In the meantime, please avoid removing the templates from articles unless there is a good reason to do so. -- User:Docu
I don't care about the position about the coordinates, but what I was going to tell you to is that instead of using that template, just have your bot avoid that page or just do all changes mnaually. There is a lot of easier ways to have that bot avoid editing an article, and using no bots on an article is not encourage (not forbidden, but just frowned upon).

There is a feature in the template that can be used for specific bots. -- User:Docu
I know, and as an admin, I can keep track of what bots seem to be causing the most problems. In the case of me and the other admins looking, every bot has an issue with interwiki links. So, what we can do is find the correct interwiki link ourselves or block the bots until that problem is fixed.

As apparent by my talk page, there is some conversation on some images of Japanese prefecture symbols that are claimed as fair use. While the main issue seems to be finding a website that hosts the image, I noticed while looking around I saw File:Symbol of Okinawa Prefecture.svg, the official symbol of the Okinawa Prefecture, which you uploaded. You marked this image as being public domain in Japan, or {{PD-Japan-exempt}}. The issue on my talk page refers to File:PrefSymbol-Saga.png. The image, like the one you uploaded, is the official symbol of the Saga Prefecture, but unlike yours, it is marked as a fair use symbol. Is there any way you could tell me if the symbol of the Saga Prefecture is in the public domain or not, or where you found the information to conclude that it is in the public domain? — Moeε00:04, 10 January 2009 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-01-10T00:04:00.000Z","author":"Moe Epsilon","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Moe_Epsilon-2009-01-10T00:04:00.000Z-File:Symbol_of_Okinawa_Prefecture.svg_and_prefecture_symbols","replies":["c-Zscout370-2009-01-10T00:10:00.000Z-Moe_Epsilon-2009-01-10T00:04:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Moe"}}-->

This years WikiCup started off great! It's only the second full week of competition, and we already have a lot of content promoted. We have some very close pools, such as Pool A and J. We also have some pools who have not been very active yet, but hopefully that will start changing in the coming weeks.
Garden and iMatthew have also opened a new pool, the "Judge's Pool" where we are competing against each other and following the same rules as all of you. This pool however, will never have any effect on the actual competition, but you can still check back often to see how we are doing compared to yourself.
That's it for this newsletter edition, everyone. Any questions or comments are always welcome on the WikiCup talk page, or our user talk pages. Until next time, Garden. and iMatthew // talk // 13:55, 11 January 2009 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-01-11T13:55:00.000Z","author":"IMatthew","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-IMatthew-2009-01-11T13:55:00.000Z-WikiCup_Newsletter","replies":[]}}-->

Wow, you guys are racking up the DYK's fast! Good articles are also coming in quite quickly, and we also have a few new Featured articles. This is coming along great so far; we're glad to see almost everyone working on something.
Also, Thehelpfulone is our newest judge. He will, starting Monday, be helping maintain the WikiCup and help us ensure all runs smoothly. It's hard to gain consensus between two editors, so I guess "majority rules" (with three people) will start to apply while we make our decision. :-P

Hiya. The first Threshold AfD has been deleted. I was wondering whether you could say a little more about this?

I am a little touchy on images, because of what happened to my first upload, so
I do not know if I am being bold or obsessive — can something like this just be ignored?

What happened was that the coat of arms image that you displayed now, it was taken from the SVG image of the Yukon flag. I swore I made that clear in the image summary. As for what happened with the first image, if a Free Image is replacing an image under fair use, then we have to replace it and put the fair use image up for deletion.

New Year Greeting,
I am writing to ask your permission if it is ok to remove your work of "the flag of Ezo Republic", since we are unable to see any reference regards to the flag. But if there is any comment or reason you need to say, I would like to see at this page: I will check sometimes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.245.162.144 (talk) 08:48, 17 January 2009 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-01-17T08:48:00.000Z","author":"68.245.162.144","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-68.245.162.144-2009-01-17T08:48:00.000Z-Removing_Ezo_flag","replies":["c-Zscout370-2009-01-17T09:07:00.000Z-68.245.162.144-2009-01-17T08:48:00.000Z"]}}-->
If it is removing from articles, you don't need my permission to do that. But to get an image deleted to where no Wikipedia can use it, that is another can of worms.

Accordingly, I removed the flag from the page, and I appreciate your understanding. I don't quite understand what you mean by "worms", but I understand your own creative images are not suitable to those pages. Of course, we can re-consider at anytime when there are some reference to see. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.113.230.86 (talk) 12:04, 24 January 2009 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-01-24T12:04:00.000Z","author":"98.113.230.86","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-98.113.230.86-2009-01-24T12:04:00.000Z-Removing_Ezo_flag","replies":["c-Zscout370-2009-01-25T09:41:00.000Z-98.113.230.86-2009-01-24T12:04:00.000Z"]}}-->
When I speak of "can of worms", see this phrase. As I told you, if you wanted to remove it from articles, you do not need my permission to do it. But if you are asking me to arrange the image to be deleted (or physically removed from the site without any chance at reuse), that is a different issue.

colleges are so notable that they should be stubbified, not deleted for copyvio.

I was pointed to the article via OTRS; the only thing that is certain is that the college refuses to allow us to use the logos, even under fair use.

The record shows you deleted an article I started on Jeffrey H. Norwitz. The record states this deletion was triggered by a ticket request. Could you please explain the basis for the decision to delete?
I just looked at the google-cached version.
As a published author, and public speaker, you wouldn't have silently removed it based solely on a request for privacy, would you?

We're still going strong. Couple of things though; please note that you must make it known you are in the WikiCup when nominating FAs, FLs, FPos, FPs, and FSs. This is to lower the possibility of bias. We're also changing the way you get to the next round. Now, the top two from each round get through, along with ten wildcards. This means that even if you're not in the top two you can still get into Round 2, so even if you're in the group of death you can still go through. Hopefully this will be fairer for all. We've also unfortunately had our first withdrawal - Truco has left the Cup. Best wishes for him in the future. Garden., iMatthew // talk, and TheHelpfulOne

Hi Guys! Well it's Thehelpfulone's first time properly looking at the scores as he made this newsletter and he's impressed on how much work you have all done. It's a shame to say that RyanCross has withdrawn from the Cup.

We have 31 days left, just one month left in the first round. The first two months have already produced spectacular results, and we're hoping to see a great race to the end of the round. Get those nominations in for them to count for this round, but remember that any nominations that are not promoted before the end of this round, will still count for round two if you make it. We unfortunately had another contestant, What!?Why?Who?, withdraw this week and we wish them the best.
We saw some big jumps in content upgrades this week! We saw 33 new good articles, 3 new featured articles and lists, 8 featured pictures, 5 featured sounds, and 24 did you know items. (Also note, there are 111 good articles and 222 did you know items as of this newsletter). Keep it up during the final push to round two. GARDEN, iMatthew // talk, and TheHelpfulOne

I think it's safe to say that this week is probably your last chance to nominate anything for promotion to count in this round, so start planning that all-important final push. Bear in mind that anything not promoted this month will still count in the next round if you go through. It's looking very close in the Wildcards section, so if you don't see yourself there, don't panic—you may not be too far off the pace! GARDEN, iMatthew // talk, and TheHelpfulOne

I followed a link here from a deletion log, unfortunately that can't be updated after archiving I guess. You involved a conversation here.

Back in January you deleted the article Jeffrey H. Norwitz based on a request via an OTRS ticket.
I came across a current reference (this week) to comments from a counter-terrorism from the Coast Guard Academy. It took me a while to determine if this was Norwitz, or one of his colleagues.
During the course of checking -- I went to remind myself of exactly how you explained the deletion.
Your talk page said you left me a note on my talk page. But that explanation seems to have gone AWOL. Did you remove that discussion from my talk page?
My recollection is that you said that the OTRS rules authorized administrators to comply with a deletion request, if in their sole judgment, the article was "not notable". Have I got that right?
I continue to see this as a disturbing loophole. For ordinary articles administrators are only allowed to delete articles that satisfy a criteria for speedy deletion -- and "not notable" is not a criteria for speedy deletion.
I can't tell if I am repeating myself, because I can't find that earlier discussion.
Did we discuss me taking this to DRV? If so, what was your reply?

What a brilliant finale to Round 1. With so little in it it was always going to be a tight contest, particularly in the all-important wildcard places. Congratulations to all those who have made it to Round 2, and commiserations to all who have been eliminated. I hope you continue to contribute as fully as you have been in the tournament, if not better!
As has been stated before, Round 2 begins Wednesday, April 1 2009. I hope you are all ready!

Hello. :-) I wondered if you could tell me what happened to the content of the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Threshold (online game)? I ask because yours is the only edit of that page, and the edit summary was an intriguing "oops". I imagine that there must have been more debate in order for a delete decision to be made, and it is important to see the full discussion in order to understand the rationale of such a decision.

The start of Round 2 has been in some respects an explosive one, with one user in particular almost in the triple figures after just a week. There are obviously contestants with no points or very few, but as it is so early in the round this can probably be excused. Keep it up everyone!
Note that due to unforeseen circumstances, Mitchazenia has been eliminated from the contest. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Hello Zscout370. I noticed you have knowledge of flags and that you also draw flags for wikipedia. The flag of the Republic of Macedonia is not really correct. The sun in the middle of the flag is a little bit to small. I do not know how to draw flags, so I wanted to ask you if you could draw a new proper version.
The correct look of the Macedonian flag is as follows:
Please answer if you're able to draw it.

Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am sending you this message since you are a member of the GA WikiProject. I would like to invite you to consider helping with the GA sweeps process. Sweeps helps to ensure that the oldest GAs still meet the criteria, and improve the quality of GAs overall. Unfortunately, last month only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process when 163 articles were reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.
We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the list, and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

Hi, I notice that recently you have made some changes to the File:Republic of China Army Flag.svg, and my opinion is that the blue is too dark, so dark that it lloks like black. The older version by user:Kibinsky since 2006 seems to be of a lighter blue, and is more near to the Blue sky red sun original definition. Please let me know what you think.

Hope you know that RGB is an inherently device-dependent color system (depending on the characteristics of your monitor, viewing illumination etc.). So there's no one single correct CMYK to RGB conversion system, and any program which converts CMYK to RGB without asking you to first calibrate your monitor is not authoritative...

The CMYK is all that we know and that was just a crapshoot trying to figure out. A website that I help send info to, Kosovo Thanks You, has documents from the flag designer himself about the colors he used, but Wikipedia rejected that info. I will try and get in touch with the site and perhaps the designer.

Hi all. Round 2 is officially over, and we're very pleased with the results. The lowest passing score was over 200! We are very impressed with the last minute pushes to get a spot, which many of you did through mainspace editing your butts off for the last week or so. We really hope that those of you who did a lot of mainspace editing this time around will take some of that and turn it into good and featured content next round.
The pools for Round 3 will be up soon; the round starts tomorrow, June 1, 2009. As always, nominations that were nominated last round but not passed yet, may count for this round. Hope to see you all working very hard, as you are down to the Top 16, and it's going to take a lot to make the Top 8!
Those of you who were eliminated and no longer wish to receive this newsletter may remove your name from this list. If you were eliminated, but are still looking for some fun editing competition, check out User:Shappy/Amazing Race Wikipedia which starts in July.
In this round of the WikiCup, the top contestant from each pool, along with ten wildcards, will advance to the next round. The pool winners are:

Wow, what a big start to Round 3! We already have people past the 50 point mark, in one week. We can tell that this round is going to be tight, and we'll likely see every Top 8 contestant with over 500 (maybe 400) points by the end of this round. Keep working hard! – weburiedoursecretsinthegarden, iMatthew : Chat , and TheHelpfulOne

Turns out last week's newsletter was never sent out. Sorry about that! Since we already had it done, we are sending you both. This newsletter is the one for this week though. Anyway, we're seeing you guys working really hard. There are a few of you over 100 points in the first two weeks. Also, we have switched Ottava Rima from Pool D to Pool B, and Shoemaker's Holiday (who has withdrawn) from Pool B to Pool D. Scorpion0422 is more than likely to withdraw before this round ends, because he will be inactive next round. That would leave 2 contestants in Pool B. So, to make things fairly even, we have switched the two contestants. Sorry for all of the confusion!
Finally, we know it's very early, but you can already sign up for the 2010 WikiCup, here! We want to get everything ready way in advance for next year. So we opened the list up, and we'll start working things out in September/October, most likely. Information is all on the page, and you may leave any questions on the talk page. So go sign up before your favorite flag is taken! 'weburiedoursecretsinthegarden, iMatthew : Chat , and TheHelpfulOne

This year a bot will be tallying the scores for the tournament. This bot will be run by ST47 and will count edits–at 0.1 points each (major edits only, see below)–and submissions at the scores listed in the tables.
You must submit any work that you manage to promote in each period on your submissions page. Your page is located here. Rules and instructions are here for submitting.
Due to the massive influx of Huggle users, and because this is a content contest rather than an editcountitis extravaganza, minor edits will be scored at only 0.01 points. If you are a Huggle user your edits must be marked as minor or you will be disqualified. If you are unsure, check your contributions.
If you wish to drop out before the tournament begins, please do so as soon as possible, but not later than January 5.
Most importantly, good luck! Happy New Years, Garden. and ayematthew ~~~~
As mentioned on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Belarus#Indiscriminate_tagging, a lot of articles connected with the Chabad-Lubavitch chasidic movement were tagged for the WikiProject Belarus. It has already been mentioned there that this is a lot too far-fetched, except perhaps for the articles about a few rabbi's who were born in places that at one time or the other belonged to what is now Belarus.
I have done some removals today, but really think you should have done that. Please be more carefull next time. I do understand correctly that it was you responsible for this?

Hello all, iMatthew here. I just wanted to let you know about "The Great Wikipedia Dramaout" which starts this Saturday. The goal of the Dramaout is to spend five days working on improving articles and abstaining from any of Wikipedia's drama. I don't think that any of you will have a problem focusing on articles for five days, because of course, any work you get done during the Dramaout will count towards your score in the WikiCup. Details are on the page; hope to see you all signing up! :) iMatthewtalk at 00:27, 17 July 2009 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-07-17T00:27:00.000Z","author":"IMatthew","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-IMatthew-2009-07-17T00:27:00.000Z-WikiCup_participates_in_the_Wikipedia:The_Great_Wikipedia_Dramaout","replies":[]}}-->
About two weeks left, now. To those of you in the back, don't give up. There is still enough time to get some more work done. To those of you in the front relaxing... don't. We've seen it happen before, where users in the back will jump ahead in the final weeks and make it though.
We'd also like to wave goodbye to Scorpion0422, and thank him for all of his hard work this round even though he knew he needed to withdraw at the end of it.

The round is over in about four days from now. Sit back, watch your nominations being reviewed, and hope for the best. In these four days, you don't have much control over your score. It's what you did prior to now, that's going to pile up your points (or not). We're very, very pleased with this round's results so far, and of course hoping to see some more submitted before the round ends.
