Speaking of "collaborative efforts to improve wikipedia"
[edit]The campaignbox of the "Naderian wars" doesn't have a show button and is instead permanently expanded. There should be a show/hide function but it's absent for some reason. I am not sure how this has happened and who is responsible. I am asking whether or not you know how to fix this template?
- If you would kindly provide a link to what you are asking about, I will be happy to take a look. Zpeopleheart (talk) 01:07, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
- I found what you are talking about. The show hide function works fine on my side. There is no need to adjust the coding. You might want to try purging your cache or try a different broswer. If you need to edit the template just click on the E in the VTE section. Hope that helps. Zpeopleheart (talk) 01:26, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks. everything is sorted. Parsa1993 (talk) 04:32, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

[edit]That article needed some major work, thanks for cleaning up what i missed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Polorix (talk • contribs) 21:26, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
I was wondering if we could have your take on the article in the talk page. Parsa1993 (talk) 01:12, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- Sure, I will take a look at it in a bit. Thanks Zpeopleheart (talk) 01:23, 19 November 2015 (UTC
- You might want to revert that last edit. I was getting the gb refs formatted. Can you type here the text in the lede, and the we can plug in the refs? Did you create this one?

On Saturday April 30, 2016, in conjunction with a global campaign, the Guggenheim will host its fourth Wikipedia edit-a-thon — or, #guggathon — to enhance Wikipedia's coverage of modern and contemporary artists from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, and to counter geocultural systemic bias on Wikipedia. The Guggenheim aims to further the goals of the Guggenheim UBS MAP Global Art Initiative, and build on the model of campaigns like the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at the Guggenheim: Women in Architecture, Wikipedia Asian Month, and Art+Feminism. New and experienced editors are welcome. The event will include a training session for participants who are new to Wikipedia and Wikipedia specialists will be on hand to provide basic instruction and editing support. Can’t join us in New York? Visit our global MENA Artists Month partnership page to coordinate international and online events as well.

words from a retired ghost user
[edit]Hello!
justa note that your reverts at Draft:Suzanne Sagendorph Welsh actually added back quotations that did not have sources. For example, your revert added back this quote, for which no source is provided:
"I first met Suzanne Welsh in the 1960s when my then wife acquired one of her decorated settees. She was very fond of her work and subsequently we sought her out in Ardmore to see and occasionally acquire other examples."
You also restored this quote, which I had removed as it contained no source:
"Of all the people I have ever known, Suzanne S. Welsh was one of my very favorites. As a frequent visitor to the Ardmore home, I looked forward to that incredibly distinctive welcome. Her voice will be forever ringing in my ears. Its was part of the joy she brought to everyone. I have no doubt that the button lady was unique in my life and certainly to all who had the privilege to know her. The rocker in my office will forever be a fixture. Such beautiful handwork."
I see from the block log that you are just coming off a six month block, which appears to be a second block for disruptive editing. I'm thinking that the above revert of unsourced quotes could be considered disruptive by some, and would encourage you not to make edits like this. My originial removal of this material was just fine, as it contained no source for the quotes. Happy editing! HappyValleyEditor (talk) 21:01, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
- It is a poor practice and considered disruptive editing to slice out huge chunks of an article during the time which said article is at AFD. Go make your threats to someone else. It is very bad faith for you to try to advise me after you sliced diced, and threw out the bath water on that article. The article is AFD, maybe you should try there. Otherwise you could always go to the talk page of said article, rather than come to try and bully and intimadate me. Go away now. Zpeopleheart
Some bubble tea for you!

[edit]Per [1], if you want to continue to work on the article, ask any admin to WP:USERFY it into your own user space. I've done that in a few cases where I took a personal interest in the topic. Montanabw(talk) 00:08, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Yes Ma'am.I wrote on the guys page that closed it to ask. How does that work will I suddenly appear in my sandbox. I think I have a good plan for a good rewrite with better citations. I have the two books now that prove the two quotes. Plus I have an idea about where to find better sources for some of the other parts of the article. Could you maybe do me the favor of looking the beer one I will make to give an opinion to me if the sources are better? I do thank you and some of the others coming forward to assist me in trying to find better sources. Maybe if we all at WiR stick together we can get past these needless deletions of the notable woman's articles. Zpeopleheart (talk) 17:53, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- It will probably show up as User:Zpeopleheart/name of the deleted article. Check your subpages. As for help, once you have gotten it, let me know. Montanabw(talk) 23:34, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
