Welcome[edit]
I'm surprised no one has welcomed you to Wikipedia. Well, let me extend a welcome. Welcome to Wikipedia.
I'm also supposed to list some possible things to work on with a standardized message:
You can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Wikipedia:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)
Help counter systemic bias by creating new articles on important women.
Help improve popular pages, especially those of low quality.

Multiplication Dots[edit]
Your hard work adding multiplication dots to the articles on 200 and 300 is much appreciated. The reason they didn't have multiplication dots is that I meant for the stubs to be very short that would merely act as receptacles for information on integers before meriting a full article. Once one such stub has enough information to merit a full article, then every effort should be made to adhere to the template. But before that, I wouldn't worry about it. Nevertheless, I realize that it must've taken a lot of work to accomplish putting in all those dots, and that's very much appreciated. PrimeFan 22:15, 4 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- Ok, I understand the way it's supposed to work; thanks for your comment, and for your welcome :) .slord 00:48, 15 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Numbers at the French Wikipedia[edit]
If I were you I'd just start translating number pages to French, see if any people join the effort, before formally declaring a number project there. But I have only briefly looked at the French Wikipedia, so I really can't advise you there.
I've looked at the Italian, Spanish and Swedish Wikipedias, because I've noticed recent activity of people working on those Wikipedias making interwiki links to there from the English Wikipedia. At the Spanish Wikipedia, only User:Sabbut is formally signed up for the number project there, but User:Numerao has done a lot of work in creating number articles that conform to Sabbut's template, and linking them to English; and Sabbut and a couple of others have added facts to those number articles. At the Italian Wikipedia, Usuario:L'abbaco spagnolo is translating number articles from the Spanish Wikipedia, and a couple of others have edited those articles, but only to fix his spelling mistakes; an anonymous user has linked those back to English. At the Swedish Wikipedia, User:Anton Mravcek has been making number articles and linking them back to English. PrimeFan 20:29, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- Thank you for your reply and advice, I think I'll act this way. slord 10:48, 17 Mar 2004 (UTC)
New Mathematics Wikiportal[edit]
I noticed you've done some work on Mathematics articles. I wanted to point out to you the new Mathematics Wikiportal- more specifically, to the Mathematics Collaboration of the Week page. I'm looking for any math-related stubs or non-existant articles that you would like to see on Wikipedia. Additionally, I wondered if you'd be willing to help out on some of the Collaboration of the Week pages.
I encourage you to vote on the current Collaboration of the Week, because I'm very interested in which articles you think need to be written or added to, and because I understand that I cannot do the enormous amount of work required on some of the Math stubs alone. I'm asking for your help, and also your critiques on the way the portal is set up.
Please direct all comments to my user-talk page, the Math Wikiportal talk page, or the Math Collaboration of the Week talk page. Thanks a lot for your support! ral315 02:54, Feb 11, 2005 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Angers European First Film Festival[edit]
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Angers European First Film Festival requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.), but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Epeefleche (talk) 20:55, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed[edit]
Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Slord. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Slord~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
