Orsi Kocsis

[edit]

I've written a Wikipedia article on Orsi Kocsis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orsi_Kocsis) and am looking for someone to translate it to Hungarian and add it to hu.wikipedia.org. Would you be interested in doing this in your spare time? If not, can you put me in contact with someone that would consider my request? Peteqrogers (talk) 11:55, 31 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article List of cities, towns, and villages in Hungary (A-M) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Nothing links to this. I have made lots of templates for crossl linking Hungarian articles, and with User:Momlap have translated several. This it seems to me is useless. If it were properly linked etc it may serve some fucntion, but since it says itself that the date is likely to be out of date (which on the articles that I and the missus are not) wrong to me is worse than nothing. i.e. if you don't know shut up. This article is useless for an encyclopaedia.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Request for help, please

[edit]

Dear Alensha, nice to meet you. I'm wondering if you would be so kind to help translate a very short-stub version of 3-4 sentences of this article for the wonderful Magyar Wikipedia? Thank you very much for any advice or help you could offer. I hope to hear from you. Sincerely--Brezza del mare (talk) 13:29, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Late-term Abortion

[edit]

It has come to my attention that you have never heard of what is known as Late-term abortion. While it is obviously OK for you to have your opinions about abortion, discussion pages for articles are not the place for you to discuss the article itself. the discussion pages are for discussing ways to improve the article. You should probably read up on Wiki policy before editing more discussion pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kgromann (talkcontribs) 02:05, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Panehesy and Constantius II

Dear Alensha,

I'm sorry to disturb you. I don't edit too much on wikipedia due to my poor health today. If you are interested, there is a (high resolution) photo of Panehesy's Amarna tomb here I tell you this since you have a Hungarian wiki article linked to it. I also sourced this bust of Emperor Constantius II here if you wish to use it on hu. wiki. Thank you, --Leoboudv (talk) 00:39, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I must agree with you. But, children of princes are also princes. The term "king's son" or "king's daughter" coul refer to grandchildren of pharaoh.

Thank you on translation of Iynefer's name.

You should redirect articles about Nefermaat and Itet's children on page about Nefermaat, and I will wrote section about them in wich I will put their names. But I think Hemiunu must have his article, he was a vizier.--Mychele Trempetich (talk) 16:42, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Names like Minkhaf, Khufukhaf and Sneferu-khaf - khaf means "raised him", but in wich manner - "raised him" as "care about him" or as "he hold him high". I hope you understand my question. :)--Mychele (talk) 15:15, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is not so funny, but... lol... what you think about Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum? Were they brothers and...?--Mychele (talk) 17:52, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think they were not brothers, but a couple :) those paintings doesn't look to me as if they were depicting brothers... – Alensha talk 19:14, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

OK, that was strange, and it's perverse...I think... Now I'm sorry for this question. But that was the funniest thing about ancient Egyptian that I ever heard.--Mychele (talk) 09:12, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Translation

[edit]

Hi Alensha. I am looking for a translator who could translate into Hungarian a page re an artistic movement founded in Italy:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMMAGINE%26POESIA

and to upload it on Hungarian Wikipedia. Could you help me or suggest what to do? Thanks and greetings from Italy--Alessandroga80 (talk) 16:52, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll translate it when I have time; provided that it doesn't get deleted from the wikis it has been posted to recently (mass translation of articles always raise suspicions in huwiki). – Alensha talk 19:14, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kaemqed On this page is image of Priest Kaemqed - was he the same person as the Prince Kaemqed, son of Princess Nefertnesu?--Mychele (talk) 18:33, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's impossible to know. BTW I think Kaemqed and Nefertnesu shouldn't have their own articles, they could be mentioned in Sneferu's article. This is the same issue as with Rahotep's children: there is simply not enough info on them to warrant a separate article. – Alensha talk 19:12, 11 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How do you think it's impossible? Nefertnesu lived during 4th dynasty, and Priest Kaemqed during 5th. Maybe he lived for many years?--Mychele (talk) 09:07, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

[edit]

Thanks for your help. This page is already published on Wikipedia of 8 countries: maybe this could be a reason for the page to stay (by the way we should add the template translated from English WP). Shall I open an account on Hungarian WP or can you upload it when it is ready? Grazie e saluti dall'Italia--Alessandroga80 (talk) 04:34, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You are now a Reviewer

[edit]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:19, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but Anneke, our friend, made this - Khentetka. So, your page must be deleted or merged.--Mychele (talk) 14:59, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Help needed with sourcing

[edit]

Hi Alensha, could you please do me a favour and have a look at this newsfeed? While I got from a crude Google translation that Dalriada won the 2009 Focus Music Award, I'm actually interested in what they write about Thy Catafalque on that page. Apparently their album scored the third place? Your help would be appreciated since the Catafalque article is currently discussed on AfD. Thanks a lot, De728631 (talk) 14:53, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ramesses VIII

[edit]

Neithsabes/Sebi derived an image of the future Ramesses VIII (when he was a prince) and I used it here. I'm letting you know since there is an article on him already on huwiki which you could use.

  • By the way, someone took this first class high resolution image of Sheshonq I here but unfortunately you don't have an article of him on huwiki at present. Of course, you can always place it in a time-line article somewhere, I suppose. This is the classic image people have of the founder of Egypt's 22nd dynasty. Best Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 02:20, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

copyediting assistance request

[edit]

Hi, I have come across an almost unintelligible biography on an important Hungarian psychologist, Ferenc Mérei, which I have attempted to rewrite with a little help from GoogleTranslate. However, the task is still proving too difficult. I understand you are Hungarian. It may not be your area of interest, but your help with copyediting the article into good English would be much appreciated. Cheers, --Ohconfucius ¡digame! 02:24, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done :) It is somewhat in my area of interest but not in my area of expertise, so I'm not sure it's perfect now. – Alensha talk 14:46, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks, Alensha. I note, however, that there is one sentence which still makes no sense: "was born a serial which was formaled by him, and these 50 book lests are used as basic books is the national psychological life – he wrote these brochures for his own students". Perhaps you missed it. --Ohconfucius ¡digame! 03:50, 30 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion converted to PROD: Marcus J. Blatter

[edit]

Hello Alensha. I am just letting you know that I have converted the speedy deletion tag that you placed on Marcus J. Blatter to a proposed deletion tag, because I do not believe CSD applies to the page in question. CSD G3 is appropriate only for blatant and obvious hoaxes, to the point where non-experts would consider it vandalism. Thank you. Nikkimaria (talk) 03:54, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fyi, I'm likely to be collaborating with others at the BLP after the protection is lifted in a few days and I see where you had some interest in the article awhile back. The article would benefit from more attention from a larger variety of Editors I think. Mr.Grantevans2 (talk) 14:10, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the notice, but I was only interested in him b/c of his comments about Michael Jackson, which I thought to be important to be included in the article when most of the readers were likely to be looking for them. It was a long time ago, and I don't know anything of interest about King :) – Alensha talk 20:27, 26 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for all your work about Nefermaat, Alensha. And Happy New Year. Maybe we should make together some new article or make something new and better in the old ones.--Mychele (talk) 11:57, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Need help in discussion for an article nominated for Afd

Hello Alensha,

This is regarding a post of "Janos Boros" the Ex-Vice Mayor of Kolozsvar. You might not remember me, I am Kiran, an Indian by Szarmazas. My Magyar is a bit rusty, so I have to write in English. In 2009 there was nominated under Afd by some Romanian users. It was finally decided as "keep". It seems some RO Users have decided to nominate it again. I got the decision reviewed and the Admin was gracious enough to open it for discussion again. If you have the time, please do participate.

Dear Alensha,

I got a photo for this 24th dynasty Saite king here There is currently no article on him on huwiki and that's OK but you can always use it in future when you want. Please forgive my brief message as I have been quite sick with the flu for the past week now. The image is copyright free and I have told the flickr photographer of its use on wikipedia and he is quite happy of my notification and he has noted its use here. With best regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 01:34, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • You're welcome Alensha. The picture's use is for the future. I too edit much less on wikipedia and more on wikicommons where I mark images as a 'trusted user.' I am still sick but will see a doctor soon. Goodbye from Metro Vancouver, --Leoboudv (talk) 19:31, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

/* Dominique Strauss-Kahn sexual assault case: blank of "Feminist and anti-sexism reaction"

[edit]

Hi Alensha,

You recently contributed to the talk page on a feminist issue there.

You might like to know that the "Feminist and anti-sexist reaction" section has been blanked by user Off2riorob.

I've opened a section about it on the talk page here. I've asked Off2riorob's opinion on three areas 1 the question of notability 2 the issue of soapboxing 3 what I call the 'Fula student' test. I maintain that 1 the issues are very notable 2 that there is no soap-boxing 3 that students are served better for knowing the case has prompted feminist and anti-sexist reaction in France. Off2riorob's blank appears to have been prompted by the citation of a primary source, a feminist petition, but Wikipedia's policy requiring discretion with primary sources centre on OR and not soap-boxing and Off2riorob would have been better advised simply to replace the citation if it bothered him. I would also like to see his response to a remark I have made about editor equality.

I would be grateful if you could contribute your views. Please do not attempt a restore as that will be seen as edit-warring, however unjust that might seem. The issue began with a Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard#Dominique_Strauss-Kahn_sexual_assault_case BLPN thread that was started by me in affort to remove a BLP contentious and libelous edit to the effect that DSK had had sex with a porn actress which its contributor refused to delete. Off2riorob supported that but then cut the feminist content as well.

Off2riorob is just fine IMO, he's just gone off the track a bit here and needs a helping hand back. FightingMac (talk) 00:45, 3 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any chance that you could mark/approve my edit here on hungarian wiki for a second younger 1987 image of Marie F of Roxette...before she got ill with brain cancer in 2002?

Request for your Hungarian skills

[edit]

Hello! I help out at WP:BLPN, and some editors have raised questions about Agnes Rapai, a Hungarian author. The major question is whether the reviews (listed at the bottom of that article) really indicate notability. If you have a few moments, could you please lend your Hungarian skills in checking those reviews? It's exceedingly hard for non-Hungarian speakers to tell whether 1) she has won significant critical attention in Hungarian sources; or on the other hand, 2) whether these reviews in Hungarian are trivial or insignificant in their discussions of Agnes Rapai. Any advice you feel like giving, either at the article talk page or at the noticeboard would be most appreciated. Thank you! JFHJr () 19:26, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A Question on my message

[edit]

Dear Alensha,

Did you receive my E-mail on accessing the PDF of that article on pharaoh Senakhtenre Ahmose? Doug did and he got the paper. So did the French and German wikipedia members as they have updated their versions of Senakhtenre from 'Tao' to 'Ahmose.' I was just wondering, nothing more. I have updated this king's article on English wiki here. Its not perfect as I don't understand French but google translate helps a bit.

I realise that you are probably busy and likely more interested in music. Yes, I loved Whitney Houston in the 1980s--I was only 12 when her first album came out in 1985...and living in Malaysia at that time. My family only came to Canada in 1989 but sadly Whitney made bad choices in her life as she openly admitted to Diane Sawyer in an ABC interview later on. Its a tragedy but at least the cause of death was clear cut and did not become a terrible mess unlike the MJ case. With kind Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 09:21, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

I did not get the e-mail and I've just seen the changes in the enwiki article. I'm going to update the huwiki article soon.

I'm more interested in Egyptology than in music, but music articles are easier to write, that's why I wrote more of them. Recently I was busy with the cleanup campaign in huwiki and did not write new articles (we have this campaign now and then to clean up articles that need formatting or sources or wikifying etc.) I'm planning to re-write Whitney's huwiki article too, she deserves a better article. She was a great artist.

kind regards, – Alensha talk 16:58, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've resent the E-mail about accessing the paper in PDF to your gmail account. Hopefully you will receive it this time. I have to sign off now. PS: I liked Whitney's music until after her 1992/1993 'The Bodyguard' album. After that she seems to have disappeared from view. I know she tried some comebacks, but she never achieved the kind of success she had from 1985-1993 when she sang so many classic songs including 'Saving All my Love for You,' Greatest Love of All,', 'So Emotional', 'Where do Broken Hearts Go', 'I Will Always Love You'. What a waste of talent. She could have had so many more number 1 hit songs. But she made some bad choices and it cost her her voice. Madonna, in contrast, made mostly good personal choices and she's a healthy and influential living legend today. Best wishes, --Leoboudv (talk) 21:03, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I updated the huwiki article of Senakhtenre.

I liked Whitney's post-Bodyguard music too (My Love Is Your Love is a great album), although my main favorites are artists who write their own songs; Mariah, MJ (Madonna too, though I preferred her 80s music). – Alensha talk 19:31, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Alensha,

I found a good reference for the crown in the Nubkheperre Intef tomb. I added it here Apparently it was found in this king's own sarcophagus/coffin. You don't have to reply to my message. This is just for your information...if you wish to add it to the huwiki version of this king. Best Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 06:21, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Leoboudv,

Thank you, I added this info to our article. – Alensha talk 08:54, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • You're welcome. PS: I changed the name above to Leoboudv since this a public site. By the way, you don't have to worry about the mysterious king Sheshi but suddenly I notice that Commons has many images of his seals as I told Udimu recently thank to a donation by one Museum. Udimu is active on German wikipedia. Somehow, unlike you, Udimu knows who I am and is on EEF while I have no idea who he is although I know he is a German in Britain, nothing more.

Credo Reference Update & Survey (your opinion requested)

[edit]

Credo Reference, who generously donated 400 free Credo 250 research accounts to Wikipedia editors over the past two years, has offered to expand the program to include 100 additional reference resources. Credo wants Wikipedia editors to select which resources they want most. So, we put together a quick survey to do that:

It also asks some basic questions about what you like about the Credo program and what you might want to improve.

At this time only the initial 400 editors have accounts, but even if you do not have an account, you still might want to weigh in on which resources would be most valuable for the community (for example, through WikiProject Resource Exchange).

Also, if you have an account but no longer want to use it, please leave me a note so another editor can take your spot.

If you have any other questions or comments, drop by my talk page or email me at wikiocaasi@yahoo.com. Cheers! Ocaasi t | c 17:06, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Emerich Szörényi

[edit]

Dear Alensha,

I would like to ask for your assistance with a Hungarian text. Obviously, there is nothing urgent here.

This article (probably) contains some biographical information about the Hungarian biochemist Emerich Szörényi. I would like to add a couple of sentences to the wikipedia article about his son, the philologist Omry Ronen. (The more ambitious project of writing an article about E.S. will probably have to wait for a Hungarian-speaking expert in biochemistry). Could you please pick and translate a few encyclopaedic of sentences for me? (in the spirit of "E.S. was born ... worked in ... is famous for the discovery ... lived in ..."?

If this is too much work, it would already help me very much if a) you could confirm that this is an article about E.S. the biochemist, and b) check whether his children are mentioned anywhere in the text.

Thank you very much in advance!

Sasha (talk) 03:38, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Alensha,
thank you very much, you are very helpful! I will add some of what you wrote to the article about Omry Ronen, and also leave a note at Wikipedia:WikiProject Biochemistry, perhaps someone will use the rest to write a stub about E.S.
Tell me if you ever need any help with translation from Hebrew or Russian or with access to articles in scientific journals.

Blekko

[edit]

There has been considerable discussion at Talk:Blekko regarding the claim of "malware" or "hijack"; basically, no WP:RS have established either claim yet(only forums, blogs, and wikis), so neither can Wikipedia. I have no association whatsoever with Blekko, but I don't like to see claims sourced to non-RS. --Lexein (talk) 20:24, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

well, it set both of my browsers' home page to a different page, and messed up my search results, I think it's pretty legitimate to call it hijacking, and anything that hijacks a browser is malware IMO. I spent half an hour getting rid of this crap, but its wikipedia article does nothing but gush about this fantastic program. a quick search shows that several of the computer security web sites know about it, why do they not count as reliable sources? even Lavasoft, creator of Ad-Aware has a page about it. – Alensha talk 21:03, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your anger and opinion are noted. See WP:TIGERS. Other editors, like yourself, have had similar experiences, and blamed and labeled Blekko, incorrectly. The fact that the Blekko toolbar takes over browser search is made completely clear in the body of the article. The blame should be on the other packages which include Blekko toolbar and which somehow bypass consent. The hijack was caused by the bundle, not by Blekko, whose consent box was bypassed. I downloaded the searchbar directly from Blekko, installed it, it asked for consent, I gave it, it installed, I uninstalled it, and it uninstalled completely, then I reset my browser search defaults, no problems. Shareware users have to be more careful what they download, read what's bundled, and stop just clicking consent boxes without reading them. --Lexein (talk) 03:30, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Followup Lavasoft does indeed have a page about removal of blekko as homepage, but it refrains from calling it any names at all, and doesn't refer to search. Let me restate that I understand your frustration, but eventually some news source or notable company will cover this, and I'll agree with mentioning the fact that some bundled shareware installs the Blekko toolbar without clear, discrete, consent. --Lexein (talk) 17:43, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Followup2 Interestingly, Lavasoft partnered with Blekko, announced here. --Lexein (talk) 17:56, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I wrote about the article about the famous church in Debrecen. I think it's wrong in Wikipedia, the article name is Protestant Great Church in Debrecen, but in the Hungarian language it is the Reformed Great Church in Debrecen, the Református Nagytemplom Debrecenben vagy Debreceni Református Nagytemplom. it's not Protestant just Reformed. I think it schould be named in English the Reformed Great Church in Debrecen

Hungarian help needed

[edit]

Hello Alensha, I'm contacting you because we need some Hungarian translators to help with the deployment of the new VisualEditor on hu.wikipedia. There are help pages, user guides, and description pages that need translating, as well as the interface itself. The translating work is going on over on MediaWiki: Translation Central. I also need help with a personal message for the Hungarian Wikipedians. If you are able to help in any way, either reply here, or head over to TranslationCentral. Thanks for your time, PEarley (WMF) (talk) 01:12, 17 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

I posted about it at huwiki's village pump. I have to admit I'm not a big fan of this VisualEditor, so it's quite unlikely that I'll work on it, but I'm sure other Hungarian Wikipedians will be more enthusiastic. – Alensha talk 10:03, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article upgrade assistance request (Pre-translation stage)

[edit]

Seasons Greetings,

This is in reference to a relatively new umbrella article on en-wikipedia named Ceremonial pole. Ceremonial pole is a human tradition since ancient times; either existed in past at some point of time, or still exists in some cultures across global continents from north to south & from east to west. Ceremonial poles are used to symbolize a variety of concepts in several different world cultures.

Through article Ceremonial pole we intend to take encyclopedic note of cultural aspects and festive celebrations around Ceremonial pole as an umbrella article and want to have historical, mythological, anthropological aspects, reverence or worships wherever concerned as a small part.

While Ceremonial poles have a long past and strong presence but usually less discussed subject. Even before we seek translation of this article in global languages, we need to have more encyclopedic information/input about Ceremonial poles from all global cultures and languages. And we seek your assistance in the same.

Since other contributors to the article are insisting for reliable sources and Standard native english; If your contributions get deleted (for some reason like linguistics or may be your information is reliable but unfortunately dosent match expectations of other editors) , please do list the same on Talk:Ceremonial pole page so that other wikipedians may help improve by interlanguage collaborations, and/or some other language wikipedias may be interested in giving more importance to reliablity of information over other factors on their respective wikipedia.

This particular request is being made to you since your user name is listed in Wikipedia:Translators available list.

Can you help verify translations of articles from Hungarian

[edit]

Hello,

Would you be able to help evaluate the accuracy of translations of Wikipedia articles from Hungarian to English Wikipedia?

File:Language icon.svg

This would involve evaluating a translated article on English Wikipedia by comparing it to the original Hungarian article, and marking it "Pass" or "Fail" based on whether the translation faithfully represents the original. Here's the reason for this request:

There are a number of articles on English Wikipedia that were created as machine translations from different languages including Hungarian , using the Content Translation tool, sometimes by users with no knowledge of the source language. The config problem that allowed this to happen has since been fixed, but this has left us with a backlog of articles whose accuracy of translation is suspect or unknown, including some articles translated from Hungarian. In many cases, other editors have come forward later to copyedit and fix any English grammar or style issues, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the translation is accurate, as factual errors from the original translation may remain. To put it another way: Good English is not the same as good translation.

If you can help out, that would be great. Here's a sample of the articles that need checking:

All you have to do, is compare the English article to the Hungarian article, and mark it "Pass" or "Fail" (templates {{Pass}} and {{Fail}} may be useful). (Naturally, if you feel like fixing an inaccurate translation and then marking it "Pass", that's even better, but it isn't required.)

If you can help, please let me know. Thanks! Mathglot (talk) 10:51, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

These articles have since been assessed by another editor. There will probably be more to look at later. If you're interested, let me know, and I will send you some new ones at that point. Thanks, and happy editing! Mathglot (talk) 17:37, 1 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You added this name to the List of children of Ramesses II[1] ten years ago. Someone's just created an article on him. But there's nothing on Google Scholar mentioning him and Google books doesn't turn up anything I can preview[2] except the encyclopedia and it doesn't show up in that although that's not proof it isn't in it. Do you have a source? Thanks. Doug Weller talk 10:30, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Doug Weller: He is mentioned in Aidan Dodson's The Compete Royal Families of Ancient Egypt, which is, as far as I know, the most comprehensive book on members of Egyptian royal families. (His name has some spelling variants in English, he is mentioned as Montuenheqau here.) I don't think he needs a separate article, as nothing but his name is known, and the claim that he was Sethnakhte's father seems baseless. – Alensha talk 14:27, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Will you turn it into a redirect as you know about the source? Maybe the alternative spelling needs adding somewhere. I thought there would be one. The same editor, who seems fascinated by DNA, recreated an article deleted years ago after an AfD.Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hent (queen).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Maszovlet, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Balaton (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Survey Invite

[edit]

I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they affect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take no more than 1-2 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.

Survey Link: http://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9S3JByWf57fXEkR?Q_DL=56np5HpEZWkMlr7_9S3JByWf57fXEkR_MLRP_3vAyHeGvPe1E29v&Q_CHL=gl

I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.

Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs (talk) 23:17, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello. Your recent edit to Kőszeg appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

Notice

The article After the Lights has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Appears to fail WP:NALBUM

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Unicode chart translation request

[edit]

Hello. I maintain multilingual Wikimedia charts showing roadmaps to the various planes of the Unicode Standard.
I'm hoping you will provide Hungarian translations for me. (I noticed your user name on the Wikipedia:Translators available list.)
The specifics are at User:Drmccreedy/roadmap_multilingual.
The current Hungarian page for Unicode uses a very old chart with out of date colors.
Your translations will allow me to replace that outdated chart with a new one that will be kept up-to-date.
Thank you for any help you can offer. DRMcCreedy (talk) 01:49, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Drmccreedy:

I'm not an expert on roadmaps, but I've posted about this on the huwiki village pump, hopefully someone can help. – Alensha talk 13:28, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! DRMcCreedy (talk) 15:10, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
An update: I have received the Hungarian translations. I've updated the images and have added them to the Hungarian page for Unicode. Thank you again. DRMcCreedy (talk) 04:48, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
