This has piqued my curiosity. Could you put something in the article that explains what it is? Cheers! --Auntof6 (talk) 23:49, 31 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Will do by the end of this week. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 02:07, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I look forward to learning about it. :) --Auntof6 (talk) 03:59, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please do as stated above, because I have improved the article quite a bit (categorized, red links, "criticaly aclaimed"...) As stated in Requirements for very good articles, 1 or more editors have to do a revision of the article (fix the minor flaws), so I hope You do so... - All the Best! --7arazred (talk) 18:21, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You mean "review" the article? Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 23:23, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Big Airport Weekend - January 20-23[change source]

We want to invite you to participate in the Big Airport Weekend on Jan 20-23. (See: WP:Big Weekend) The purpose of this weekend is to improve SEWP's coverage of airports and airport related articles. A few tasks and guidelines:

  1. Add {{Infobox airport}} to all airport articles
  2. To improve existing articles and stubs in the Category:Airports including subcategories.
  3. To add new articles on airports. (Any airport with regular commercial service or where a historic event happened is notable enough for an article.)
  4. Airports can be civilian, military, and anywhere in the world.
  5. Add BAW (for Big Airport Weekend) to the edit summaries to help keep track of the changes.
  6. Please use the {{inuse}} template to avoid edit conflicts with other BAW participants.

Barnstars will be liberally rewarded for your airport efforts. Let me know if you have any questions. Please join us to have fun and to improve SEWP. Thanks, Racepacket (talk) 19:22, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Still here![change source]

Yes, I am still here. Lost my password for the Reverter account, and since I never entered my email, it is unusable. However, this is my new account. TheHistorian (talk) 16:23, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I sure hope you don't leave :( TheHistorian (talk) 16:25, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
LOLZ I'm here, I'm currently working on an article :D How have you been?? Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 16:26, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for asking. I've been good. Nearly got myself banned on the English Wikipedia, so I decided to take a break and come over here for a while, just to help out. Anyways, how you been? TheHistorian (talk) 16:29, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oh wow lolz, I've been better, haven't been editing here for awhile because of RL but I'm hanging on :D What did you do if you don't mind me asking? Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 16:31, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I do admit I was *sorta* trolling there :P. TheHistorian 16:36, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, well I hope you've changed for the best of this project. Would you like to work with me on an article to GA? It would look good for your return on enWP. Up to you :D Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 16:39, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah totally, but what is GA? :) TheHistorian 16:40, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You can read this or basically, "good article(s)" are articles that the community (other editors, not ourselves) believe are well written and structured properly by the manual of style and other guidelines/rules. In other words, a "good article" is a well written and informative article that is written in Simple English. If you are still interested I'm working on The Substitute (a Glee) episode, we can work together and you can ask questions on the talk page if you are stuck on something, you can translate any section you want from the English Wikipedia version to the one we are working on. Just reply here so I know which one you are working on and will work on another section :D Sound good? Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 16:47, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, totally. I'll begin work right now! For the best, TheHistorian 17:11, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Would you mind working on the "Plot" section? I'll work on the lead. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 17:18, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. TheHistorian 17:19, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Quick deletion of Template:-'[change source]

The page you wrote, Template:-', has been selected for quick deletion. This is because the page was deprecated or replaced by a newer template and are completely unused and not linked to. If you think this page should be kept, please add {{wait}} below the line {{QD}} and say why on the talk page. If the page is already gone, but you think this was an error, you can ask for it to be undeleted. Auntof6 (talk) 23:37, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, AJona. Could you please tell me where you got the text of this article from? Most of it comes up in a Google search on several different websites, but not on enwiki... Is it from an earlier revision of the enwiki version? Osiris (talk) 05:27, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, never mind, I see the version specified on the talk page. However, could you please translate the language? As you can see from the demonstrated difference here, you've not modified the language at all. Regards, Osiris (talk) 05:42, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I thought the language was somewhat simplified when I copy-paste it but I did read it and simplified only a few words but not all. I'll do that today. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 12:24, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that, it looks great. Regards, Osiris (talk) 13:11, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome :D Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 13:15, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bringing articles over from enwiki[change source]

When you make a new page based on an enwiki article, don't forget to 1) put attribution on the talk page and 2) include an interwiki for the enwiki article. Cheers! --Auntof6 (talk) 15:32, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reminding me :) Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 15:50, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You're trying to make Pug a VGA? Awww, that's so sweet! I created the article and tried to make it a GA loooong ago, but sadly it was disqualified for lacked the "dark stuff"... (Mainly information about the issue of inherited defects.) I couldn't bear to search up or write about it, so I just sort of, erm, gave up on it. :p *fidgets guiltily* But it's really nice of you to pick it up for me again! If you can, try to include it, or we'll probably run into the same problem again. Please tell me what I can do as well. Kindly, Bella tête-à-tête 09:00, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yea I decided to work on it because the enWP version is a Good Article. So I was going to simplified the article from enWP to the simple one. I would like to work with you on the article if you want? I prefer working with other users than myself. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 17:07, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

IEP 2.0 proposal[change source]

I regret that I couldn't join you in agreeing to the IEP 2.0 proposal. If we re-visit this in future, maybe it will play out differently.

As the IEP 2.0 discussion winds down, it may be timely to contrast and compare an SEWP pilot program in Japan.

I mentioned it here, but two sentences may have been overlooked in the wall of words:

"... a very different kind of strategy has marked the development of a pilot SEWP program at Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) here and here. Strategic planning and context-building here and here were quite distinct from the IEP 2.0 proposal."

I hope we can find ways to build on things that seem to be going well. --Horeki (talk) 19:47, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats![change source]

Hello and Congrats on your newest success! I've just promoted Selena (album) to GA status. Really nice work, very well done! -Barras talk 06:40, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I'm so proud that I got my first GA on simple :D Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 12:32, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, great work, AJona! :D It's very simple and well referenced. I look forward to continue working with you on Solar System. DJDunsie (talk) 09:49, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good change![change source]

This was a good catch -- I like to see the existing templates used where possible instead of coding them right in an article. --Auntof6 (talk) 20:52, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks :D Yea same here, but I guess some users just love codes lolz Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 21:03, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Templates[change source]

When you're testing new templates, please try to do that in your userspace instead of in regular template space. For example, you could create User:AJona1992/Template1 and invoke it like this:

{{User:AJona1992/Template1 | parm1 = John Doe | parm2 = othervalue}}

Thanks! --Auntof6 (talk) 22:01, 18 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tip! Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 23:32, 18 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reminder[change source]

When you bring articles over from enwiki, please remember to add an interwiki for the enwiki article. I know it's easy to forget, because there isn't one in the enwiki article -- I've forgotten several times! --Auntof6 (talk) 00:13, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't forget, I just let the bot take care of it. If that's a problem then no worries I will start adding the enWP wiki. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 00:14, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, that's fine then. Is the bot actually taking care of it? I thought someone said at one point that it wasn't working. --Auntof6 (talk) 00:17, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
To me it is, though 24-48 hour delay. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 00:19, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
In order for the bots to pick up on it, there has to be at least one interwiki on the page. Osiris (talk) 03:48, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The next Big Weekend – 10 to 13 August[change source]

You are invited to take part in the next big weekend, the Big Space Weekend, on 10 to 13 August. Our goal is to increase the number and quality of space-related articles. For full details, see Simple Talk. DJDunsie (talk) 20:34, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Taxoboxes[change source]

Hi Jona. Since you have started WikiProject Animals, you might have an opinion on this issue. The problem is reflected in one of your new articles Reptiliomorpha, which is trying to use the automatic taxobox but evidently needs some more templates importing. Osiris (talk) 02:54, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Replied. Best, Jonatalk to me 03:48, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Western Africa[change source]

Hi, I was checking New Pages and noticed Western Africa. I just wanted to let you know I requested QD because it was a duplicate article that existed just to make a redirect. Rather than the new article and redirect (which may encourage others to link to it) I went ahead and corrected the two incoming links. Now all links point directly to West Africa. Hope that's OK. Gotanda (talk) 21:43, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yea that's fine and thanks for fixing that up. Best, Jonatalk to me 21:47, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Update: I requested the same for Golden poison dart frog. I think it is neater to correct the links when bringing in from En, rather than creating these additional new article just for one or two links. Gotanda (talk) 21:48, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That's fine too, I'll just add a pipelink to the Amphibian article. Best, Jonatalk to me 21:50, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I have a problem with this now, Rosy red minnow shouldn't have been deleted. It's the species common name, it is used by pet stores. I don't think the deleting redirects is even necessary especially if other readers do not know that the Rosy Red minnow is called a "fathead". Best, Jonatalk to me 18:19, 28 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think you might be going a bit too fast creating new pages. That's certainly not to say stop or even necessarily slow down, but myself and others seem to be following after you picking up the pieces. I've fixed taxoboxes that are obviously broken, others that didn't display anything at all except error messages, removed dead links, broken file links, broken maintenance tags, broken template links, massive link farms (one was as big as 12Kb)... Maybe please just take a bit more care, check that everything is okay on the page before you move onto the next one. Osiris (talk) 04:49, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry about that, I will go easy on the books and stuff. Thanks for notifying me about this. Best, Jonatalk to me 18:19, 28 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Jona. I couldn't figure out what you meant on simple talk, with regards to the domain being featured in the taxobox. As far as I can tell, the domain and kingdom can be displayed using the |domain= and |regnum= parameters, respectively (tested it on the Reptile article -- here). Is this what you were referring to? Osiris (talk) 02:15, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes that's what I was concerned about. It looks pretty good =) BTW why does our taxoboxes has to be pink and not a light shade of green? Best, Jonatalk to me 12:12, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I can tell you why they are that colour, but I'm not sure whether or why it has to be that way. If you or somebody else wanted to change the colours, the defaults are set by {{taxobox colour}}. It looks like   FFC0CB is the default for taxons in the animal kingdom, and   90EE90 is the default for plants. Osiris (talk) 12:55, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well that's not good if plants have it and animals have it now I know why the user who created it used pink. But I just don't see pink as an animal color you know? But I don't want to change something because of my own preference, I'll bring it to ST in a little while. Best, Jonatalk to me 13:23, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Taxobox help[change source]

When you get a chance can you please look at Pygmy killer whale? It did an autotaxobox on me and now I don't know how to remove the help message at the top of the page. I'll just make note of what you do and copy when I run into this again. When it comes to templates I am clueless. Thanks! --Tbennert (talk) 04:57, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It is  Fixed. Our taxobox is not really working at the moment, which there is a discussion about it at ST. BTW you may want to join WP:Animals if you are interested in working with articles pertaining to animals. Best, Jonatalk to me 11:45, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much! I knew there was a discussion, I just am not so good at understanding it. --Tbennert (talk) 04:11, 5 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome =) Well the consensus was to delete the automatic taxobox and use the taxobox that we have here on Simple. Best, Jonatalk to me 15:56, 5 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Just FYI, I nominated this category for QD, after moving the entries to Category:Elle Varner. You might not have known that we want at least 3 to 5 entries in categories here. --Auntof6 (talk) 01:43, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's fine and thanks for clarifying =) Best, Jonatalk to me 13:15, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No welcoming![change source]

I have been an active user on the English Wikipedia.I know all the things about Wikipedia.I do not need to be welcomed to Wikipedia.Receptie123 (talk) 13:51, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You mean you don't want to be welcomed to Simple English Wikipedia . That's fine and best of luck here =) Best, Jonatalk to me 14:00, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I was on the English Wikipedia,i know how Wikipedia worksReceptie123 (talk) 14:02, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It was just a welcome to Simple English Wikipedia, it's not like I was telling you that you don't know anything. Best, Jonatalk to me 14:05, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I just have a little question.How do you get to be a New Page patroller on the Simple Wikipedia?I was one on the English WikipediaReceptie123 (talk) 14:07, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You have to first create articles and then request to be a patroller. An admin will grant it if they believe you are fit for it. Best, Jonatalk to me 14:10, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

When you bring an article over from English Wikipedia, and that article has sources, please include sources in the article here. Although it's hard to tell here sometimes, all articles should have sources. I don't understand why you wouldn't include them when they're already in the original article. --Auntof6 (talk) 00:05, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

With no disrespect but can you spot any sources here? didn't think so. Best, Jonatalk to me 00:09, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK, no, but why would you base an article on a 7-year-old version of the enwiki article? --Auntof6 (talk) 00:20, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Because its not a living person so little has changed in the park like maybe 2-4 new introductions have happened since then, no biggie. Best, Jonatalk to me 00:22, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please be careful[change source]

Once again, you made huge changes to a long-established page. The main pages on biology, such as Plant, Dinosaur, Amphibian (etc) have been carefully written and do not need huge changes. All you have to do, if you think a page needs improvement, is to say something on the talk page. I watch all the top pages in the taxonomy of living things, so I will see your comment.

What you are doing now is costing me a great deal of time putting things right. Here is something to think about before you bring over huge amounts from English wiki: why did I not already bring the stuff over? The answer is, that I looked at it and decided it was not the right approach for this wiki. And since I have qualifications and teaching experience in biology, I know what I'm talking about.

Macdonald-ross (talk) 10:23, 7 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Look I understand they are your articles, but you are over exaggerating I did not expand the entire article but the lead. Tell me how does that hurt Simple Wikipedia? Best, Jonatalk to me 15:56, 30 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Help needed[change source]

One of the pages I created for the Connecticut article (List of U.S. state ships) uses Template:USS. I tried to just copy over from Enwp but it didn't work. Would you be able to pull it over? I bet it's used in more articles so it would be helpful. Thanks --Tbennert (talk) 05:00, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I imported it. Osiris (talk) 05:31, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much! The page looks much better. --Tbennert (talk) 04:14, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that =) Best, Jonatalk to me 23:21, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Selena PGA[change source]

Hi Jona. Could you please take one last look at that final review? I'm afraid I'm still the only one to have left comments, but I think it passes. There is just that last couple of issues that might still need fixing or clarifying. Osiris (talk) 08:39, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Will do by tomorrow! Thanks, Jonatalk to me 18:29, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Taxonomy question[change source]

Hi, from seeing your wikiproject about animals, I wonder if you can offer me some advice. I'm sojourning here after spending quite a lot of time at the English wikipedia, and am wondering how to proceed here with articles about plants (and animals). There seem to be very few such pages, so I wonder if there are policies here about what articles can be included and how to name them. Can there be a genus page and a page for each species of some little-known genus? If there is no common English name for a species, can it never have the scientific name as the name of a page? Thanks in advance. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 12:26, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Moving songs, albums, etc[change source]

Please rethink all of those moves you have been making. Just because there is no other article about a song with the same name right now, doesn't mean that there is no other song, album, etc. by the same name. Using the specific subtitle makes it easier to add those articles later. Thanks, Gotanda (talk) 22:55, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
