Could you add a temporary restriction to the T. J. Ward page to prevent the vandalism from occurring? I don't know how to add restrictions. Thanks!

The survey should take 10-20 minutes to answer, and your individual responses will not be made public. The survey is delivered through Google Forms. The privacy policy for the survey describes how and when Wikimedia collects, uses, and shares the information we receive from survey participants and can be found here:

Thank you for helping out with my redirect request. I hoped an admin might visit but eventually realised I was in the wrong forum, so I've removed the original request. I'll keep an eye on the title and add the redirect if it gets unprotected. There should be a good chance, as the offending articles appeared five years ago and the protecting admin is inactive. Thanks again, Certes (talk) 19:35, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for creating Northern spotted box turtle, Chethin!

Wikipedia editor Animalparty just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

It might be prudent to combine both subspecies with Spotted box turtle, since all are stubs- the same info on one page would allow easier access for readers.

To reply, leave a comment on Animalparty's talk page.

Sorry about that - I checked his page quickly - saw that he had competed in the Olympics solely for Latvia, and assumed that it was a mistake. — Chevvin 15:05, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for quality articles such as Lansdowne Bridge, Ralph Harris (journalist) and Micromyrtus grandis, for contributing in collaboration with "brilliant ideas", such as Persoonia terminalis, for redirects, for welcoming new users and fighting vandalism, with explaining messages, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

You do realize that per

I would argue that being drafted isn't key information about the player and better fits in the professional career section, not to mention that there has been a precedent of placing draft information in the beginning of the professional career section. — Chevvin 15:27, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for the message on Parkland College. I glanced at the ESPN biography for one of the pitchers and did not see Parkland College. Perhaps he graduated from another college but a more thorough biography (or a look at the Wikipedia page) would have disclosed the attendance at Parkland. Sorry for the mistake and inconvenience.

I edited the intro section of Impossible Foods's page because it was not neutral to start with. As-written it supposed health risks associated with red meat which are disputed--it is not settled science that red meat is bad - hence I changed it to supposed health impacts. The environmental impact of raising meat is certain, so in order to modify only the health "risks" section, I added the word "certain" to modify environmental.

Asserting that there is a sure health risk to red meat is not neutral, so reverting to the original would seem to defeat your stated purpose.

2601:540:C501:EA30:902D:EDDB:2276:1E9A: Upon further review I decided to restore the page previous to my edit, as the original sentence was not written in a neutral point of view.

Hi Chevvin, you are receiving this notice because you are listed as an active Articles for Creation reviewer.

Recently a list of reviewers by area of expertise was created. This notice is being sent out to alert you to the existence of that list, and to encourage you to add your name to it. If you or other reviewers come across articles in the queue where an acceptance/decline hinges on specialist knowledge, this list should serve to facilitate contact with a fellow reviewer.

To end on a positive note, the backlog has dropped below 1,500, so thanks for all of the hard work some of you have been putting into the AfC process!

Sent to all Articles for Creation reviewers as a one-time notice. To opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery to your user talk page. Regards, Sam-2727 (talk)

It seems to me this page should be renamed and have the majority of the references to "The Ivory Coast" removed, as this is disrespectful to the people and government of the nation, whose express wishes not to be called the Ivory Coast are even included in the article itself. Is there a reason to keep the article the way it is? I do not believe that Cote d'Ivoire is any less clear or searchable as a name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.190.63.19 (talk) 05:37, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

@67.190.63.19: If you're interested in making those changes to the article, I would suggest that you do so by creating a proposal on the talk page. If editors come to the consensus that the article should be renamed, then the changes will be made. Just as a note, the name-change proposal has been attempted multiple times in the past and has failed due to a variety of reasons, although the last official discussion was in 2012, so you might find some success. — Chevvin 05:43, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status.
