Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Defunct universities in Myanmar

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Category:Defunct universities in Myanmar indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 00:20, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick heads up

[edit]

You probably weren't aware because the bot hadn't placed the notice yet, but I opened an RM less than a minute before you moved. I personally don't think it's worth moving back procedurally during the RM, but it does seem to be a re-occuring problem with the instructor of the course. Bobby Cohn 🍁 (talk) 16:46, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, sorry about that, it just seemed an uncontroversial move (I'd seen the discussion). The RM now looks odd: I'll stay away from it. For the second time today I say WP:CIR for tutors is needed! PamD 17:03, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Checking in for advice

[edit]

Hi Pam,

I am one of the student editors on Petroaesthetics and Contemporary Art of Southwest Asia and North Africa. I wanted to reach out and get your advice on editing this. Me and my group members hope to contribute to Wikipedia in a meaningful way while abiding to the policies. Admittedly, this is my first time writing an article for Wikipedia and I do not know all of the short hand. Would it be possible for you to briefly outline what needs editing so that my group can make these edits to ensure the page is up to standards?

Best,

Hello, you seem to have spent a lot of time on this article - anything that indicates notability before I AFD it? Seems to be a run of the mill former academic (no offense intended - so am I!) ? Cameron Scott (talk) 14:10, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cameron Scott She seems to be a notable author/editor in her field, clearly regarded as an expert as per radio shows. PamD 18:31, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:The Land Trust logo 2019.svg

[edit]
⚠
⚠
Thanks for uploading File:The Land Trust logo 2019.svg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:48, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination for deprecation of Template:EngvarB

[edit]

Template:EngvarB has been nominated for deprecation . You are invited to comment on the discussion at the entry on the Templates for discussion page.

The World Destubathon

[edit]

You are invited to participate in The World Destubathon. It's currently planned for June 16-July 13, partly due to me having hayfever during that period and not wanting to run it throughout July or August in the hotter summer and will be run then unless multiple editors object. There is currently $3338 going into it, with $500 the top prize. As 250 countries and entities is too much to patrol, entries will be by user, but there is $500 going into prizes for editors covering the most countries. Sign up if interested! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:17, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Online events:

Announcements:

  • Who are the most overlooked and interesting Women in Red? We've no idea,
    but we're putting together our list of the 100 most interesting ex-Women in Red.
    We are creating the list to celebrate 10 years of Women in Red and we hope to present it at Wikimania.
    We are ignoring the obvious, so do you have a name or subject we should consider?
    Can you suggest a DYK style hook?
    If you are shy about editing that page, you are welcome to add ideas and comments on the talk page.
  • The World Destubathon, 16 June - 13 July, 2025
