Hello N. Though you may have already seen the ping I wanted you to have a direct link to this thread Wikipedia:External links/Noticeboard#Need to reach a consensus. I don't think we have been at opposite ends of an editing situation before (or if we had it was so long ago I've forgotten it) so I hope you will allow this to be an "agree to disagree" circumstance. However the final consensus comes down I want you to know that I think you are a fine editor and an asset to the 'pedia. Best regards.

Hello,
you have been removing information from Antoine-Joseph Preira with the rational "rm non-RS". Geneanet is a know website (there is an article about it on the French-speaking Wikipedia), and it seems to be commonly used as a reference on the English-language Wikipedia [1]. Could you elaborate?

Hi Nikki. I just ran into a Harv error which I can't fix using the methods you showed me. It's in the article Spur.

there I added a source, even though nothing else in the videogames section is sourced so I don't know why you single out my edit?

Hello, Nikkimaria;
Your name is listed at Wikipedia:Good article help/mentor in the list of people who are willing to assist with GA reviews should the need arise. There is a fairly simple issue that could use a second opinion at the Talk:CS Alert (1890)/GA1 review, about whether or not the nominated article meets criteria 6b of the Good Article Criteria, whether the included photographs are relevant to the subject. If you have a chance, would you mind taking a look and casting a tie-breaking opinion, if someone else hasn't already done so? Thank you.

Hello. I hope you are having an excellent week so far. Apologies in advance for asking, but I was wondering if you could do a source review for my current FAC if you had the time? A spot check has already been done by one of the reviewers. Feel free to disregard this message if you do not have the time or interest. The FAC has not been up long (not even a full two weeks) so I am in no rush with it, and hopefully, more editors will look through it. Either way, have a great rest of your week!

Hi, Nikkimaria. I don't know--I'm certainly a big fan of sourcing, and I understand how crucial it is in some contexts; but my generalized roster of Wodehouse themes seems to me to be in the nature of uncontentious common knowledge (and perhaps not easily attributable to any one source, since it pertains to the PGW canon as a whole). I respect your reversion, but could we perhaps compromise with a "Citation Needed" tag?

Hi Nikki, a question on an article title. An editor added a new bull rider article to mainspace today. It's Jess Lockwood (Professional Bull Rider). All other previous articles that needed a title to be unique used just "bull rider" as in Luke Snyder (bull rider). This new article is using uppercase, as in the organization Professional Bull Riders. I'm not sure this is an issue. I've looked through the policies trying to find something. I did see that the article title is supposed to be sentence case, which I had already known. Can you point me to any other policy regarding the article title? I thought best to address it while it's new.

Sorry about that [3]. The Bot reported that the nomination had not been transcluded. This is because it could not find the {{FACClosed}} template. In turn, this is because of a unclosed double-bracket. I have corrected the nomination and the FACBot has processed the close.

Hi Nikkimaria, How are you? I wonder if you can help me? I'm currently updating the Red Orchestra. I came across across it almost a year and started to update, using the German article as a basis. In the last 10 years there has been a mountain of information being released on, stuff being published, papers written and stuff released from archives. One of the these archives is the Uk National Archives. They have a fair amount of documents that I would like to get a hold of. I've identified about 8 at the moment, but there is more. Do we have any kind of agreement with them? This is example of one of them: [4]. This would help to fill in some at Funkabwehr, these [5], [6], [7] (I think i've got that, but you can never know until you read it), [8], [9] (I want to do an article on this lassie. It goes on and on and on. It would be really cool if we had an agreement with them. scope_creepTalk 18:51, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-09-25T18:51:00.000Z","author":"Scope creep","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Scope_creep-2019-09-25T18:51:00.000Z-Uk_National_Archives","replies":["c-Nikkimaria-2019-09-25T21:57:00.000Z-Scope_creep-2019-09-25T18:51:00.000Z"],"displayName":"scope_creep"}}-->

Hi. Please would you kindly explain to me why there is a primary sources tag on the above article? It uses verifiable, neutral and reliable, independent newspaper articles. Anyone in the UK with a city library ticket can verify the news articles for free online. Also anyone in the world with a subscription to Genes Reunited or the British Newspaper Archive can access the same newspaper articles. I have been told that some U.S. university libraries can access the British Newspaper Archive. I have looked through the articles linked on the tag, and I cannot see any objection to reliable newspaper articles. All newspapers cited in the article are respected newspapers. Regarding the BMD certificates, these are accessible for a fee in the UK, and presumably also for non-UK readers. Where possible I have purchased the certificates and quoted all contents without comment in the citations. If you would like me to purchase more certificates please let me know, and I can copy out the contents into the existing citations. I can provide links for all the Census pages so that they can be verifiable by anyone with a subscription to Ancestry, if required, although they should be verifiable without a url to anyone who has other sources with search facility for UK Census pages. There are no citations which are not verifiable in one way or another. I plan to add a number of quotations from newspapers to the article - probably on Monday when I am free to do so. Thank you.

Hello, sorry for the intrusion. Bengal famine of 1943 currently has File:Dead or dying children on a Calcutta street (the Statesman 22 August 1943).jpg (contributed by Fowler&fowler) atop the page, instead of File:Statesman j.jpg, which it had on the previous FAC. The files are quite nearly identical, tho one may have more detail. Their licensing is different... um, sorry for the trouble, but, any suggestions for what I should do? I suppose I need to resolve this before any img review on the current FAC.

Hey Nikki - I came across this photo (along with a couple of others of the same series in the archives). As far as I can tell, these were in Schleinitz's personal collection and were turned over to the archives after his death. German copyright is obvious, but under the US, am I correct in understanding the 70PMA term to apply as well? And if that's correct, is there a template that covers this? None of those listed at Template:PD-US seem to apply. (Nevermind on that last part - Template:PD-US-unpublished would cover it.) Thanks.

Hi Nikkimaria, I am mentoring a slightly nervous first time FACer through the process. The article has already passed ACR - Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Inter-Allied Women's Conference - where you generously put a lot of work into the image review.

I see that you have again deleted information from this article without explanation. Do you have sources indicating that his parents and children were not the persons named? You should add a "fact" tag rather than just deleting information, especially when an editor in good standing disagrees with and undoes your deletions. Unexplained deletions may be taken as simple vandalism and dealt with accordingly. If you have a policy-based reason the info should not be i the article, please present your argument on the article's talk page rather than simply edit warring.
What does your edit comment "Rm EL" mean? A clear explanation helps other editors to understand your reason for removing something from an article.

Hey Nikkimaria. The Caligari FAC has been quiet as of late. As you may recall we disagreed over the inclusion of Rotten Tomatoes in the article.

I don't usually ask, as a number of FACs need your attention; but you've already done an image review for this one at ACR, and the only difference is this image, which I've already done as much research on as I can; so it ought to be quick.

Dear Nikkimaria, I'm working on Hearst Castle, with the ultimate goal of FAC. I'm having an issue with the two images of the castle's architect, Julia Morgan, which appear to be the only two we actually have of her. The images are [[File:Julia Morgan.jpg]] and [[File:Hearst and Morgan.jpg]]. The first is being used on Morgan's own article page, but has been removed from Hearst Castle on the grounds that Morgan isn't the subject of that article. The second is currently flagged for deletion on 21 November. If those are the rules then regrettably, so be it. But it does seem a huge shame that we can't have at least one image of Morgan in the article about her most important building. Until pretty recently, she was a very undervalued architect, receiving a posthumous AIA Gold Medal in 2014 and a New York Times obituary as late as 2019! To me, the Hearst Castle article is almost as much about her as the castle itself. I should add that another editor disagrees, see here: User talk:JJMC89#Julia Morgan. I'd be very grateful for any advice. Thanks in advance.

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

Hi Nikkimaria, I would like to ask you about some changes you made on the edits of Joe Adonis and Anthony Anastasio. Days ago I updated the infobox with the informations contained in the pages, also adding "parents", "cause of death" and the links on the countries of birth/death (U.S., Italy).

Nikkimaria, I was wondering whether you could take a look at this to see whether you had any concerns regarding the quoting here, and also whether you are happy with the fixes made to reduce the close paraphrasing.

Hello and Merry Christmas! I have seen that you have removed the link in Forgotten Realms to the Forgotten Realms Wiki, based on WP:ELNO. I assume, you are refering to point 12., open wikis. Could you please let me know if am I correct? If that is the case, I would like to point out that the Forgotten Realms Wiki in my view falls under the "except those with a substantial history of stability and a substantial number of editors" clause of that point. I am happy to give more details if you like. I also have been in a number of deletion discussions of D&D subjects recently, and often the argument of those who wanted articles deleted was "this does not belong here, those interested should go to fan wikis". In that regard I find it important to keep that external link to indeed help those who are interested in these matters to find that wiki. It is to my knowledge the largest, most active and with most well-kept content in matters D&D. Thank you very much for your consideration!

Hello Nikkimaria, I read your review on my FA nomination for Begotten and I have replied to the issues and concerns you had with it. I also am here to ask for some input on some possible fixed for quotes in the article that are over 40 words. Here are my possible fixes sorted by section:
Dead and Rebirth- (Merhige) Blockquote (Muir) Remove the last questions part
Development and pre-production- (Merhige) Shorten quote
Post production- (Merhige) Shorten quote
Reception- (Merhige opening quote) Still trying to figure that out as it is essential to the section
Din of Celestial Birds- (Merhige) Blockquote
Influence- (Zola) Shorten

I am still waiting for the user that placed the deletion tag on the Din of Celestial Birds poster (I also sought additional opinions on the image after making changes to it, which they all said was good now.) I do think that all the citation formatting errors are fixed but if there are, just let me know. I also added a short sentence in the reception section that (sort of) explains the secondary reviews. In regards to the avoidance of blockquoting for longer quotes, I tried doing that before the second comment I did, but it all feels like a forced breaking from the paragraphs and takes away from the overall flow of the article.

Hi Nikki,
It looks like no one has used the talkpage for Taylor and Francis in a few years, and it appeared you were the wiki liaison. Is that still the case? I requested access in November, and received an email stating I was approved and would get further information within a couple of weeks, but it is now almost been six weeks. Any ideas (assuming you are still involved in this)?EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 12:41, 27 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-12-27T12:41:00.000Z","author":"EnigmaMcmxc","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-EnigmaMcmxc-2019-12-27T12:41:00.000Z-Taylor_&_Francis,_wiki_library","replies":["c-EnigmaMcmxc-2019-12-27T14:17:00.000Z-EnigmaMcmxc-2019-12-27T12:41:00.000Z"]}}-->
Nikkimaria, can you please check this nomination? Initially, a large section was copied over from another article, and I pointed out that this meant the article had to be expanded fivefold from the length of the copied material. The section was then deleted, and a paraphrased replacement subsequently inserted. (There are grammatical problems with it, but that's another issue.) Does the paraphrasing mean that no expansion is needed, that a partial one is, or what? And are there issues with paraphrasing the other article, even if not close paraphrasing? (Or even if there is close paraphrasing, since the copying was originally noted.)
I did ping you there, but I remember that pinging doesn't always work for you, so I'm posting this here to be sure you see it. Many thanks.

Dear Nikkimaria
I am new to wiki but you deleted some edits I made which were correctly sourced using the UK's best selling newspaper .... you stated it was not reliably sourced i think ... anyway I have reverted and left an explanation.

Hi Nikkimaria, A very happy new year to you, and I hope you had an enjoyable break over the last week or so.
A quick quesion about FAC reviewing: do you know of any good pages that ourline what an FA review should be? I know that for sources, User:Ealdgyth/FAC, Sources, and You and Wikipedia:Guidance on source reviewing at FAC are often quoted, but do you know of any that are good for images - or for general prose?

Might I gently suggest that if someone says you've broken something and you can't figure out what, then you ask them via their talk page rather than just going and breaking things again? To take this edit as an example - the article was already reporting the location as Bern - and more importantly, it was extracting that location from Wikidata. More and more factual data is being moved to Wikidata, as it means that Wikipedias in every language can use the version at Wikidata, which only needs to be updated once for any changes to be reflected in every Wikipedia. So not only did you not need to add Bern to the en.wiki article, the way you did so actually broke the infobox as the field name should be location and not located, and you could have worked that out because the article now appeared in Category:Pages using infobox archive with unsupported parameters. Please can you repair the damage that you've done?

Hi Nikkimaria, it looks like I might be having an issue with my Newspapers.com application. I've had access for a couple years now without any issues, and requested the renewal for 2020, which I see you approved. But when I log in over at Newspapers I have the basic free account instead of the full service one. I see the applications page status says "Renewal - Approved", whereas in the past it always would say "Renewal - Sent to partner". Is it maybe waiting in a queue or something? It's not urgent, just checking to make sure something wasn't missed. ♟♙ (talk) 15:37, 9 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-01-09T15:37:00.000Z","author":"EnPassant","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-EnPassant-2020-01-09T15:37:00.000Z-Library_application","replies":["c-Nikkimaria-2020-01-09T23:56:00.000Z-EnPassant-2020-01-09T15:37:00.000Z"],"displayName":"\u265f\u2659"}}-->

Not sure why you removed my additional text. I'm new to this game and deliberately didn't remove any of the pre-existing text about his final illness/death. I was intrigued by the apparent lack of information and as a someone who is medically qualified and a (UK) Medical Examiner with an interest in genealogy I felt that checking his death certificate (which is in the public domain) was reasonable. I got a copy of his death certificate and I have simply quoted from that document. Just in case anyone is concerned about the embarrassment about the nature of his illness - GPI was a common cause of death in that era and features in members of my family tree. I did try to upload a PDF copy of the certificate or a snapshot of it, but the software blocked me under suspected copyright issues.

With reference to your removal of content from Spectre (2015 film), which I presume is due to the fact it cited only references from The Daily Mail, I believe that Wikipedia editors are encouraged to look for alternative sources before deleting such material. In this instance there were other sources available, which in fact largely corroborated the information presented by The Daily Mail. Please could you bear this in mind in future?
For what it‘s worth, in my experience The Daily Mail is no more likely to be in error than Wikipedia, except perhaps where political matters are concerned (and in this respect it is no more biased than most other UK newspapers). I am of the opinion that both institutions demean themselves by engaging in a senseless and petty mutual vendetta. Censorship very rarely benefits anyone and is the very antithesis of open and honest debate (note that neither am I a reader of the Daily Mail nor do I agree with its politics, but I do believe in the freedom of the Press). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Edwin of Northumbria (talk • contribs) 08:02, 26 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-01-26T08:02:00.000Z","author":"Edwin of Northumbria","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Edwin_of_Northumbria-2020-01-26T08:02:00.000Z-Wholesale_removal_of_content_citing_only_The_Daily_Mail_as_a_reference.","replies":["c-Cassianto-2020-01-26T09:53:00.000Z-Edwin_of_Northumbria-2020-01-26T08:02:00.000Z"]}}-->
