Hi again. I don't know if you're following discussions at WT:DYK (if you're building prep sets, you should be). Our unofficial supervisor, BlueMoonset, moved the matchsticks hook into the quirky slot on purpose. You moved it out. Perhaps it's because you are alternating bios and non-bios in sets, with 4 of each, that you did this? First of all, that wasn't necessary; in fact, we've been running sets with 5 non-bios and 3 bios for some time because there has been an imbalance of nominations at WP:DYKNA. Second of all, the Johanna André bio hook is hardly quirky. I moved it to a later set, and will replace it with something else. Best, Yoninah (talk) 18:20, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah, yes you caught all the reasons right, I was following the alternate ones. I am pausing so that we do not collide for the corrections and moves and I believe you are more experienced than me in handling. Sorry for the inconvenience. ~ Amkgp 💬 18:25, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Well, I'm just trying to finish up Prep 6 now. You can continue with Prep 1 if you'd like. Best, Yoninah (talk) 18:28, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah, OK and also we need an admin attention to move the preps as 4 slots have become vacant now. ~ Amkgp 💬 18:30, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Oh, wow, I didn't even get that far. I'll leave a note at WT:DYK. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 18:31, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

It means funny, surprising, offbeat. See Rule J7. The hooks you have been putting in the quirky slot are not quirky:

• Prep 5: ... that Durbin Feeling was named a Cherokee National Treasure for his contributions to the preservation of the endangered Cherokee language?
• Prep 6: ... that Johanna André, who appeared in dramatic soprano roles such as Wagner's Isolde, took part in the 1882 world premiere of Parsifal?
• Prep 7: ... that three Prix Gémeaux categories for best drama were created after a boycott by Quebec production studios?
• Please take a look at the sets in WP:DYKA to get a better feel for what belongs in the last slot. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 19:15, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

  Yoninah, I give you the liberty to fix things or improve anything from my part at T:DYK/Q. I am bit new to this and I will definitely keep the WP:DYKA guidelines/rules in mind before promoting so it never cause a additional work for others. Again, sorry for the inconvenience and thank you to have patience to guide and correct my actions at T:DYK/Q

  Yes those don't seem quirky enough, but I think

  • Prep 7: ... that three Prix Gémeaux categories for best drama were created after a boycott by Quebec production studios?

  can be considered. ~ Amkgp 💬 19:27, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

No problem. I'll move that one back down in Prep 7. Yoninah (talk) 19:28, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

...but be aware that there are 2 special occasion hooks for September 13 that should be included in this set. (Neither one needs an image.) Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 15:14, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah, Thanks for the reminder ~ Amkgp 💬 15:18, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

When you promote a special occasion hook, you need to add a hidden note beside it, so the hook won't get moved out of the set during a shuffle by other editors or administrators. Add this line right after the question mark:

<!--Special occasion hook for September 13-->

(or whatever date was specified). Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 15:58, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Hmmm. The special-occasion hook for the radio station is the second U.S. natural disaster hook in the set. So I swapped it with the lead image from Prep 1. Yoninah (talk) 16:04, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah, ~ Amkgp 💬 17:01, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah,  Done ~ Amkgp 💬 17:06, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Sorry to keep looking over your shoulder, but I don't understand why you put the Japanese YouTuber in the quirky slot. John Cale, with a seven-decade career, has far more notability and name-recognition. Please also remember that the vast majority of our readership is U.S.-based. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 17:45, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Hello Amgkp. I wanted to reach out to you because I need to apologize to you. I'm sorry that I let you down as a NPP mentor back in late April. I disappeared from the site without leaving much of a trace, and in doing so left you in the dark as a student. I'm going to need a couple days to catch myself up on things that have happened on the site, but in the meantime, I've realized that I wasn't in any position to be a NPP mentor then. For disclosure, being an NPP mentor was something that I wanted to do, but the time commitment / course customization coupled with responsibilities outside of Wikipedia meant that something had to go. I just did so in an intolerable manner, and you didn't deserve that.

With that being said, I do not think I should be your teacher, as I had already failed you once, and my knowledge is already pretty rusty. But if you haven't already, I would highly recommend that you try your hand at NPP again if you haven't already, and hopefully you can be paired with a better teacher. Have a good day, sincerely Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 19:41, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Noted with thanks. Will edit and resubmit. All copyright has been granted to Wiki. Thanks ( WanjohiK (talk) 20:15, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

I have removed your Speedy Delete notice and replaced it with a new one as this is a direct copyright infringement. Hope you don't mind. Dan arndt (talk) 09:32, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Dan arndt, I am OK with it, as I found it to a piece of WP:ADVERTISEMENT at first place so did not went ahead to check for WP:COPYVIO ~ Amkgp 💬 09:34, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Please revert your closure of The Ashvale. A non-admin is only allowed to close at AfD in circumstances where the closure is clear and obvious. This one is not. Including the nomination, there are 3 calls to Delete and 3 calls to Keep. Thank you. HighKing⁺⁺ 18:12, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

HighKing,  Done ~ Amkgp 💬 18:20, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

@HighKing: for the record, and I know it's not a vote, 4 calls to Keep and one of the 3 Deletes is weak. Mutt Lunker (talk) 18:53, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Mutt Lunker I spotted that afterwards that there were 4 calls to Keep. Doesn't really matter, it still falls outside of a non-admin to close as it would be considered "contentious" even if there was one !vote to delete. I've also added my !vote to the AfD and provided a detailed reasoning based on my analysis of the references and the appropriate guidelines. HighKing⁺⁺ 19:32, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Please reopen and relist the discussion you closed at Talk:Flash (comics)#Requested move 28 August 2020. Your closed seemed completely based on support of the proposed move location, but did not give any consideration to the alternatives presented during the discussion. In addition, it did not seem as though any of the editors who voted "oppose" specifically opposed the alternatives presented, and in fact their comments could be considered support to the alternatives presented. Steel1943 (talk) 15:00, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Steel1943,  Done I have re-opened the WP:RM and relisted for further consensus. ~ Amkgp 💬 15:08, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

I see it had been relisted. Thank you. Steel1943 (talk) 15:57, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for a good one! I made minor changes, such as the real location to the lead, not some touristy poetic district name without a link, - while the one with a link is in Austria. Perhaps the monastery would even be better, - don't know. - It's also featured on Portal:Germany. Next time, you can add there yourself ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:09, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi, I appreciate all the work you're doing on the prep sets. But I'd like to ask a favor. Part of the "fun" of building a prep set is choosing what will appear in the image slot. And all of us who build prep sets are aware of which images should be saved for a lead slot. So please try to limit yourself to choosing the image for the prep set you're building. And if you finish and have extra time, go ahead and choose the next image. But please don't fill up the whole page with images. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 14:47, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah, OK from next time on wards. Found 2 slots (to be released) empty and 3 preps empty so went ahead. Next time will restrict myself for others to participate/decide. ~ Amkgp 💬 14:51, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Thanks. BTW, I'm returning Marian Anderson to WP:DYKNA. It's the 3rd black-and-white U.S. woman image in a row. Let's try for something foreign. Yoninah (talk) 14:53, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah, Hmm...how about Template:Did you know nominations/Gibson Kyle? ~ Amkgp 💬 14:59, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

How about you fill up Preps 5, 6, and 7, and leave that for the next prep builder? Yoninah (talk) 15:00, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah I will fill up the remaining prep 5 only due to time constraints. Thank you. ~ Amkgp 💬 15:06, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah you or anyone else may proceed with the remaining ones ~ Amkgp 💬 15:08, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

I WILL NOT PROMOTE ANY WP WEBSITE PLEASE OPEN LINK AND CHECK I COLLECT HIS INFO FROM HIS AUTOBIOGRAPHY WHICH WRITE ON WP SITE

Regarding this hook promotion, the original caption was longer, but no one would know that except the nominator. You're perfectly within your rights to edit it, but your edit must be transparent. The way I do it is promote the hook and caption as is, and then, in a later edit, tweak it. That way everyone can see who did the edit and why. See, I added a link in this edit after the promotion; deleted the link in this edit after the promotion; and I often trim the hook or make other tweaks after the promotion. We need to ask the nominator if the edit of the caption is accurate; it seems to me it isn't. Best, Yoninah (talk) 16:22, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Hello Amkgp,

My name is Gillie and I started working at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem Israel. The website is https://elsc.huji.ac.il/ I'm in the Events and Marketing department. I realised that the University doesn't have a wikipedia page so I decided to create one.. I wasn't realized that it is so difficult.. I'm a paid employee, is this wrong?

Please let me know,

Thank you, Gillie

GilRaz I posted to inform you about the declaration format. You need to add {{paid|user=GilRaz|employer=Hebrew University|client=The Edmond and Lily Safra Center for Brain Sciences}} on top of user page. 15:43, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

GilRaz the university's page is at Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Yoninah (talk) 19:04, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah, his statement is misleading. He has created Draft:Edmond and Lily Safra Center for Brain Sciences - ELSC is affiliated to Hebrew University of Jerusalem for which he is paid. ~ Amkgp 💬 19:09, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

Oh. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 19:43, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

hi, can you please let me know where i went wrong..your valuable suggestion will help alot.. thank you regards Chefrozario (talk) 18:10, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

Chefrozario, The person is not notable as per Wikipedia guidelines. See WP:BIO and WP:GNG. Please note Wikipedia is not a platform for any kinds of promotion. See the rules at WP:PROMOTION ~ Amkgp 💬 18:16, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
