Hi SpaceInnovader, Greetings, I have reviewed the article and added two references. Pls note that most of your source are primary even with my added reference, the article might subject for deletion. Kindly source independent reliable source (such as local newspaper coverage of this event) for verification to further strengthen the article survival. For reliable source see here WP:RS and for verification see here WP:V. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 12:50, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Paris-Versailles Race
Hello, SpaceInnovader. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Paris-Versailles Race, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
- remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
- save the page
Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
CASSIOPEIA(talk) 12:55, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
- Hello, SpaceInnovader. I removed the proposed deletion tag from Paris-Versailles Race because I found substantial coverage in newspapers, both in French and English, suggesting that the race is notable according to the standards applied in the English language Wikipedia. I have added a few of those sources. Please note the importance of providing independent reliable sources in establishing notability. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.--Arxiloxos (talk) 18:34, 14 February 2018 (UTC)

Hi SpaceInnovader, Good day. The above page is a copied and paste from German to English translation from Wiki German Site. Please note that proper attribution is needed - please take note for your next article and please see proper attribution here WP:PATT. Kindly go through the history page of this article and check on the "diff" to see what I have added for your reference on next edits. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 13:21, 14 February 2018 (UTC)

Dancewave page edit
Hi SpaceInnovader! thank you for your time and attention to my Dancewave page! I noticed you edited one paragraph, do you know if that is the only paragraph on the page which needs edits? I am eager to be updated and know if the page will be reviewed soon. Any insight that you provide will be very much appreciated! (ITLRosanna (talk) 17:07, 26 February 2018 (UTC))
- From what I can tell it all needs editing to remove emotive language, but I am relatively new too. Details on how they review articles are here SpaceInnovader (talk) 22:35, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
Pit Schubert - Proper attribution needed - pls do not plagiarize
Hi SpaceInnovader, I would like to inform you that this is your SECOND creation page which you have copied and pasted in translation of the content from Wiki FR to Wiki En page - see here [1] . Please not proper attribution is needed and do note please do use your own word to create/edit content with independent reliable source for not commit plagiarism as you have done. Pls see proper attribution her WP:PATT, reliable source WP:RS, verification WP:V. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 11:46, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks CASSIOPEIA. I read WP:PATT after the last article and put a note on talk page using the translated page tag referencing the German article and mentioned the translation in my edit summary as detailed in WP:TFOLWP. Did I need to do something else? Please give some more guidance. SpaceInnovader (talk) 11:53, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
- Hi SpaceInnovader, Greetings and thank you for the question. If you use other editor work/content (copy and paste) inregarless the content is from Wiki English to Wiki English page or Wiki xx to Wiki English page you need to mention in the edit summary prior you save the edit ONLY IF the copy and paste content is a short sentence. For content more than that, one should create / add /edit the content with his/her word to avoid plagiarism and same go to all inline citation for source used. For you case, pls do not commit the same mistake again. You would use the source/reference but write with you own word. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 12:14, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
- By the way, if you want to write a message to other editor in "your talk page", you need to ping them so they could be notified. I noticed you wrote to me as I watch your talk page since I had written to you prior. To ping someone pls put this prior you start the message {{ping|editor user name}} . For example to ping me put {{ping|CASSIOPEIA}} and sign off by place 4 tildes after you finish the message. I have sent you a welcome message, see top of your talk page, there are many topics would help you to edit Wikipedia and learn about Wikipedia guildlines and policy. For any questions you have about editing, you could post a message to WP:Teahouse, some helpful and friendly Wikipedia's will answer you questions. Have a good day. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 12:20, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks @CASSIOPEIA: - I'll use that in the future! I don't fully understand your feedback about translation and plaguirsm, as in this case I did paraphrase the work of the German wiki it was not just a copy and paste edit (although the previous one mostly was). I'll ask at the teahouse before any new translations. SpaceInnovader (talk) 12:32, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
- In short you could use the source but write in your own word. Happy editing SpaceInnovader and good night. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 12:40, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Lake gordon
Please note that if you make idle thoughts on edit summaries - please also consider what already exists in the available articles - thanks JarrahTree 11:59, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks, I was looking through SW Tas pages and noticed that there were (or should be) a lot of pages mentioning the formation of Lake Pedder but no page giving a central summary. It currently links to the Lake Pedder page, but I don't think that's ideal or clear enough. Do you think that's a fair assessment? Spacepine (talk) 12:04, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- It is not a simple exercise. I am not sure what you mean by 'formation of Lake Pedder' - do you mean the New Lake Pedder, and the Gordon dam scheme? JarrahTree 12:38, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- Yes. Gordon Dam Scheme (New Lake Pedder). Perhaps I'm naive - but wouldn't it just be a matter of writing the article, and summarising/linking to it in the appropriate locations? Spacepine (talk) 12:41, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
- the material is already there - also the gordon dam protests (effectively synonymous with lake pedder) require something better than green left weekly for WP:RS. Youre not naive, the problem with all the south west tas things some people from the South West Tas conservation battles of the 1970s are dying off already, and there is a complicated, very complicated story around the personalities from the 1960s the 1970s into the 1980s and their various ways of writing about some of the issues - most of it unrelatable on something as open as wikipedia talk page - there are many cross linked issues with understanding the transition between the various tasmanian political parties and to what extent they were influenced by the power of the Hydro - and to what extent the groups of people from both tasmania and the mainland in dealing with intransigent thinking about things makes for very very interesting historiographical issues that could well be lost... and how this affects the nature of what is on wikipedia - what is in the histories of the Hydro and the rather pathetic histories from the opposition to the dams, is something that could take up vast amounts of time and space. The Gordon River Power Development scheme - and the category - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Gordon_River_power_development_scheme - could do with gordon dam protests - but...
- consider: Brown, Suzie (2003-08-01), "Remote control: it's been two decades since the battle to save a wild, tempestuous river in deepest Tasmania managed to transform the vision of the Australian public and take centre stage in a federal election.(dam on Lower Gordon River would have obliterated Franklin River)", Habitat Australia, Australian Conservation Foundation, 31 (4): 8(2), ISSN 0310-2939
The thing is there are a number of things - the Gordon River dam - is the upper dam that flooded lake pedder - it was the lower gordon that was promoted by the Hydro to flood the Franklin. Gordon River - upper, Lower Gordon - never built. Some slippage occurs. JarrahTree 13:02, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
please note
WP:NOTGALLERY - cheers !! (they are discouraged) JarrahTree 01:32, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- Fair, current main photo isn't the best - hopefully other editors can trim it down to best ones. Will be more discerning next time Spacepine (talk) 01:35, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Coffeeandcrumbs. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Buzz Aldrin have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Thanks. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 13:20, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- Hi @Coffeeandcrumbs:. Your edit summary said "The previous edit was vandalism masked as a good faith edit". What made you think that? I changed it as per MOS:GNL. Although I accept the term "manned" can be appropriate for pre 1990 NASA missions, they have since updated their guidelines - Spacepine (talk) 13:49, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- Also, I'm a little bit offended. Please assume good faith in the future - and I'll assume the same of you - Spacepine (talk) 14:09, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- You changed Donald Trump to Fatty Pumpkin.--- Coffeeandcrumbs 14:16, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- Ahahahaha, well that's on me! I use FoxReplace to make that substitution (and others) to make news articles more readable. Apparently it didn't just make a cosmetic change, it actually changed text on the page while I was editing! Thanks for catching it - will have to find another way to enjoy the news (my apologies if I offended your politics). Spacepine (talk) 14:28, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Richard Dry, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 13:31, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks! Did you read my edit summary? So do you have any alternatives? Spacepine (talk) 13:49, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- Paternity is not an excuse for adding honorifics - there are many alternatives available - qualifiers after the name (if indeed there are two articles in existence) can include birth dates, or occupations - there is no need for honorifics - just look at other subjects who have father and son or individuals with same names - the possibilities are actually quite considerable. JarrahTree 14:02, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- I did. I am a very careful editor like we all should be. Competence is required. Please familiarize yourself with Wikipedia's policies, guidelines, and other naming conventions. There is no disambiguation necessary exactly because we do not have an article on the father. No alternative is necessary. You are welcome to use Richard Dry Sr. to create an article on the father.--- Coffeeandcrumbs 14:16, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- Cheers Jarrah, I made the change based on the MOS for distinguishing family members, not article titles. Will use the date option next time. Coffee, I was planning on making one for the father. I implied that that was my plan, but I'll be more precise in the future. Glad I waited for the communitites opinion before proceeding Spacepine (talk) 14:28, 21 February 2019 (UTC)

File:Alison Chadwick-Onyszkiewicz on Annapurna.jpg
Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Drop bear
Why the addition of Marsupial lion to the "see Also" on Drop Bear? As best I know, it's not a hoax. Tarl N. (discuss) 12:42, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
- It filled the same ecological niche as the Drop Bear - i.e. Lay waiting in gums and droped on people's heads. Theorised by a BBC Doco to be an inspiration for it - cultural memory and all. Or just an outstanding coincidence. --Spacepine (talk) 01:55, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
- And I disagree with referring to Drop Bears as a hoax. By wikipedias own definintion a hoax is "falsehood deliberately fabricated to masquerade as the truth. It is distinguishable from errors in observation or judgment, rumors, urban legends, pseudosciences, and April Fools' Day events that are passed along in good faith by believers or as jokes". I understand they're mostly synnonyms, but without quibbling too much over definitions, "hoax" has a connotation of malice or ill-will that "urban legend", mythical creature, mythical animal or legendary creature (all used in similar contexts) doesn't. Drop Bears are not described to children/tourists with ill-will. I appreciate the desire for clarity, but "hoax" does a poor job of describing a Drop Bear's place in Australian culture. --Spacepine (talk) 04:16, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
- I took the reference back out. It has no place in an article about a hoax. And drop bears are a hoax, they are a tall tale used to confuse visitors. If you disagree with my reversion, take it to Talk:Drop bear. Regards, Tarl N. (discuss) 21:55, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
