   .

   MOS:DATEUNIFY. I have fixed this for you.  Stepho  talk  01:40, 20 November 2015 (UTC)[reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of mergers and acquisitions by Apple, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bloomberg. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by AngusWOOF was:

This submission does not appear to be written in

peacock terms

that promote the subject.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

This reads to be more of a protest and exodus of Denver Post rather than a focus on the new newspaper.

February 2020

Hi Doug Grinbergs.  I wanted to let you know that political endorsements must meet all three of these criteria:

1. The endorser must have an article or be unquestionably entitled to one
2. This endorsement must be covered by reliable and independent sources
3. Coverage of the endorsement needs to use the word endorse, or other closely related synonym.

This is covered by the consensus at

For that reason, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, poker websites, and blogs are not acceptable sources. Also, donating to a campaign or showing up to a campaign rally are not endorsements. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you - MrX 🖋 13:15, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I saw your comment at

Hello. I've reverted your addition of a Ballotpedia link to Mike Duffey. Ballotpedia has no page for Mike Duffey, Senior Vice Chancellor of the Ohio Department of Higher Education and a former a member of the Ohio House of Representatives. There is a Ballotpedia page for Michael Duffey of Wisconsin, who has worked for President Trump. See Talk:Mike Duffey#Mistaken identity. -- Pemilligan (talk) 15:43, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

On 26 January 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 2019 Lakewood semi-truck crash, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the driver in a 2019 truck crash received a sentence of 110 years in prison due to mandatory sentencing laws in Colorado? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/2019 Lakewood semi-truck crash. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, 2019 Lakewood semi-truck crash), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

		Hook update
		Your hook reached 10,279 views (856.5 per hour), making it one of the most viewed hooks of January 2022 – nice work!
