== Why is there no FACTS-Subpage on every article? ==
* where every known, used fact is listed, referenced and discussed
* where everyone can add facts, that others might eventually use, to change, expand an article,
This as I see it is one of the big conceptual weaknesses of wikipedia,
if there will ever be a successful competitor of Wikipedia, it will be a facts first, text later INCARNATION ...

==Disambiguation link notification for April 6==
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[Border town]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Bordertown]]. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small>

== Changing the name of the Notes and references section ==
You may not be aware of [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout#Notes and references]] which says: '''Title:''' Editors may use any section title that they choose. One reason this guide does not standardize section headings for citations and explanatory notes is that Wikipedia draws editors from many disciplines (history, English, science, etc.), each with its own note and reference section naming convention (or conventions). For more, see [[Wikipedia:Perennial proposals#Changes to standard appendices]], [[Wikipedia:Perennial proposals#Establish a house citation style]] and [[Template:Cnote2/example]]. --[[User:Bejnar|Bejnar]] ([[User talk:Bejnar|talk]]) 04:26, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

I did plenty of research on each page and then edit them. Please see the sources I added, none of them are Chinese, they are all English source including NPI.
As for the blue water navy part, I already removed the other image, because aircraft carriers are better representation of a blue water navy. I also added material to the Indian blue water section because this guy '''Standardengineer''' was spreading Indian propaganda on the INS Vishal page. He removed sources not in favor of India and then added new source in favor in favor of India. When I caught the source and added the important part of it (the reason why India wants a better carrier). He keep removing them !

::Thanks for the explanation. But why are you so reluctant so as to not listen to three other editors. Writing Stuff like -
::* ''The Indian fleet is grossly inadequate to match China...''
::* ''India is technologically inferior and incapable to design and develop its own systems which are crucial for aircraft carriers ...''
_______________________________
Hello Ninney. I did not even make that up ! ''The Indian fleet is grossly inadequate to match China...'' This is the 100% origional quote from the source which Standardengineer added. Here: http://www.tribuneindia.com/news/nation/navy-s-wish-list-6-nuke-subs-n-powered-carrier/77422.html
Please go read that source. It is exactly what it wrote. Also, Standardengineer added another source regarding India getting help from 4 different countries. He added this source: "http://news.usni.org/2015/07/21/india-asks-international-defense-firms-for-help-with-new-aircraft-carrier-design" Again, the point of this source is that India needed help which points out India's inability to do it on its own.
'''Standardengineer''' keeps spreading his propaganda and he even removed sources. Please go take a look.
I then added these materials on the blue water page to state the reason why India wants a better navy with more SSN and a better carrier. <small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/162.74.52.147|162.74.52.147]] ([[User talk:162.74.52.147|talk]]) 19:21, 27 October 2015 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, '''[[:List of state leaders in 2016]]'''. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – '''[[:List of state leaders in 2015]]'''. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for [[WP:A10|speedy deletion]]. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at [[:List of state leaders in 2015]] – you might like to discuss new information at [[Talk:List of state leaders in 2015|the article's talk page]].
If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:List of state leaders in 2016|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "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:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request [[WP:RFUD|here]]. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the [[WP:AFC|article creation process]] and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged.

[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|48px|]]
The article [[List of state leaders in 2016]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]  because of the following concern:
:'''This list is half-accurate and half not. It is not yet the year 2016 in all of Oceania yet. If the [[Governor of American Samoa]] were to resign or die in the next few hours, this list would be factually incorrect and therefore misleading. I propose we delete this article until all of the state leaders have reached to see in the New Year.

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hi, and thank you for [[Special:Contributions/Ninney|your contributions]] to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give [[:List of state leaders in 2016]] a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "[[cut-and-paste]] move", and it is undesirable because it splits the [[Help:Page history|page history]], which is [[Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia|legally required for attribution]]. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be ''moved'' to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is [[WIkipedia:Autoconfirmed|four days old and has ten edits]], you should be able to move an article yourself using the [[Help:Moving a page|"Move" tab]] at the top of the page (the tab may be [[:File:Vector hidden move button.jpg|hidden in a dropdown menu]] for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a [[Wikipedia:Redirect|redirect]] from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Requested moves|requested moves]] to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at [[Wikipedia:Requests for history merge]]. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-c&pmove--><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> '''[[User:Neve-selbert|<span style="background-color:{{ trim | #F0FFF0 }}; color:{{ trim | #0087BD }};">{{ trim | Neve }}</span>]]<span style="background-color:{{ trim | #FFF0F5 }}; color:{{ trim | #DCDCDC }};">{{ trim | - }}</span>[[User talk:Neve-selbert|<span style="background-color:{{ trim | #FFFFF0 }}; color:{{ trim | #F8DE7E }};">{{ trim | selbert }}</span>]]''' 03:11, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
== Creation of [[List of state leaders in 2016|this article]] ==
If there is any such thing as an understatement, here it is. You [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_state_leaders_in_2016&oldid=697513665 created] this article shortly after midnight on [[New Years' Eve]]. Why, exactly? Since when has 31 December ever been 1 January of a year? Did you honestly believe it was in-fact [[January 0]], 2016? This is absolutely ludicrous, not to mention shocking and indiscriminate. I have been deeply hurt and affected by what you had done. I had no idea at all that you created the article until a mere few minutes before Midnight [[UTC]]. There, rushing against time, I tried to get the article speedily deleted; January 0 is not an official date. I had asked an [[User:BethNaught|admin]] to delete it quickly before the clock struck twelve, but this did not happen. As the admin immediately reverted my request for deletion at precisely 12:00 sharp. I am extremely angry, agitated, irate and furious at this situation. The article should only have been created at Midnight UTC at the ''earliest''. I had it all planned. Unlike what you had done, simply removing any mentions of <code>–2015</code>, I had carefully proofread the article; e.g. the distinction between the designations of <code>Head of State –</code> and <code>President –</code> and the succession of the Swiss presidency, et al. It is not yet 2016 in all of the world until 12 PM (UTC), and I have been desperately trying to delete the article before this time, although it seems likely that I will tragically fail. This had meant a lot for me, you have no idea at all. I was looking forward to creating that article. Now, it seems, I would have to wait until 2017 comes and attempt this again. I am extremely upset at this, and I am looking to file a complaint against your prior actions (and perhaps an investigation at [[WP:DRN]]) to find out why exactly this had to happen and how to prevent it in future. If you would like to apologise on behalf of yourself, that should be welcome. Although I must say, this is not a Happy New Year—in any way, shape, or form—for me. If I am driven out of despair from Wikipedia for a year because of this, then so be it.

*Drop the stick now, Neve-selbert. It's you who has the problem if you're so upset by someone creating an article; Wikipedia isn't a fight to see who can create as many year articles as possible.

This is an automated message from [[User:CorenSearchBot|CorenSearchBot]].

==[[Ground segment]]==
Could you take another look at [[Ground segment]]? Both the quality and importance evaluations seem too low. In what areas is the article "weak", "lacking key elements", or "in need of serious cleanup"? I would also suggest that ground segments are an important topic in both WikiProjects' purviews. —[[user:swpb|<u>swpb</u>]]<sup>[[user talk:swpb|''T'']]</sup> 21:22, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
::@{{u |swpb}}: First of all, very thanks for such a good article. I do not understand how such an important topic had no article in Wikipedia before 2015. The reason of giving basic assessment was the article is not covering the entire topic, only Elements & Costs are discussed. {{Clear}}
::The ''''Lead'''' section is too small, just a one liner. It is not actually cultivating the reader's interest in reading more of the article. You may write about GS provides applications & services to different kind of users having individually separate and distinct needs & many different Networks. GS is a central point of Mgmt & Control & also a means to connect distant users. Each network within the ground segment serves a particular group of users (say Government, Corporate etc) or type of application (say Telephone, Data Communication).
::There are six primary ''''Elements'''' listed but only three had been covered as sub section.
::The ''''Cost'''' section is not a topic to be discussed in GS since it wont at a given time be shown as a range of amount & no reader would be interested in knowing the cost of establishment & operation. The cost of a GS setup is highly unpredictable & the section itself is not a usable content for reading in point of Readers interest.
::The ''''Image gallery'''', ''''See Also'''' & ''''References'''' are perfectly done.
::In the end, You may change the assessment at any given time even though you are the creator of the article & you may always "<u>Requests for Assessment</u>".
::Do keep writing such good articles. Thank you! - [[User:Ninney|Ninney]] ([[User talk:Ninney#top|talk]]) 18:31, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
:::You yourself told me I could change the assessment myself; well, that seemed like a COI, but at the same time, I disagree with your assessment on both counts. I believe your interpretation of the assessment criteria and the article content is flawed (particularly with regard to the "Costs" section), and I would like someone else to assess the article; I saw no better way to get to that than by removing your assessment, and I can find no rule or guideline suggesting that is improper. —[[user:swpb|<u>swpb</u>]]<sup>[[user talk:swpb|''T'']]</sup> 17:03, 23 February 2016 (UTC)

::@{{u |Hasteur}}: The NPP backlog continues to grow on daily basis & you can help by getting the backlog down. Use the Curation Toolbar to quickly review the article & adding tags for maintenance.
::* Check if the Article title is as per Wikipedia Stds.
::* If you do not believe the subject is notable based on having looked outside the article for the existence of sources, then prodding the article, or taking it to AfD may be warranted.
::* Add tags, If -
::** Lead is not written properly, or too short or too long.
::** Article requires sections.
::** Article requires updation.
::* Add tags, If the article is without source {{tl |unreferenced}} or if insufficient {{tl |refimprove}} (for articles on living person, {{tl |BLP unsourced}} and {{tl |BLP sources}}). Other common tags include {{tl |no footnotes}}, {{tl |more footnotes}}, {{tl |primary sources}}, ({{tl |BLP primary sources}}), {{tl |one source}}, {{tl |self-published}}, {{tl |citation style}}, {{tl |cleanup-bare URLs}} and others.
::* Stub tagging
::* Check that the article has been assigned to one or more useful categories, and if not, either tag it with {{tl |uncat}} or try to find a category for it.
::* Orphaned articles or Dead End articles.
::Lastly, if the article is marked with 'The New unreviewed article' banner then it must be manually removed when finished.

How the hell did that suffer from "linkrot" exactly? [[User:ST1849|ST1849]] ([[User talk:ST1849|talk]]) 02:02, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
::@{{u |ST1849}}: Please do check for the changes made after the page was tagged as {{tl|Linkrot}}. Few useful descriptions, information were missing & is now being added. Thank You - [[User:Ninney|Ninney]] ([[User talk:Ninney#top|talk]]) 12:55, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
:::I did had you bothered look. That guy made some dumb typos so I fixed them. Is that English you just typed? How is it "linkrot" if neither of the refs link to anything? And don't send me some stupid wikilove trash. Answer my question yourself (in plain English). [[User:ST1849|ST1849]] ([[User talk:ST1849|talk]]) 20:35, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
== New Page Review - newsletter ==
<div style="border:2px solid #90C0FF; background:#F0F0FF; width:99%; padding:4px">
Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|120px]]
;<big>'''Breaking the back of the backlog'''</big>
We now have {{NUMBERINGROUP:patroller}} New Page Reviewers! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog. Now it's time for action.<br> [[File:NPP_backlog_01_October_2016.png|thumb|250px|right|Mid July to 01 Oct 2016]]
If each reviewer does '''only 10 reviews a day''' over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by each reviewer doing '''only 2 or 3 reviews a day''' - that's about 5 minutes work!<br>
Let's get that over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.
;<big>'''Second set of eyes'''</big>
Not only are ''New Page Reviewers'' the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work. Read about it at the new [[WP:NPP#Monitoring the system|'''Monitoring the system''']] section in the tutorial.
;<big>'''Getting the tools we need''' - 2016 WMF Wishlist Survey: Please vote</big>
With some tweaks to their look, and some additional features, ''Page Curation'' and ''New Pages Feed'' could easily be the best tools for patrollers and reviewers. We've listed most of what what we need at the 2016 WMF Wishlist Survey. '''Voting starts on 28 November''' - please turn out to make our bid the Foundation's top priority. Please help also by improving or commenting on our Wishlist entry at the [[:m:2016 Community Wishlist Survey/Categories/Moderation tools#New pages Feed/Page Curation|'''''Community Wishlist Survey''''']]. Many other important user suggestions are listed at [[Wikipedia:Page Curation/Suggested improvements|at Page Curation]].
