I apologize, I meant to put a summary. What I was going to write was 1 800 GET THIN is a marketing company that does not accept insurance. Furthermore this is off topic. The insurance investigation does not need to be part of this page. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kmcphail23 (talk • contribs) 17:12, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
LUKE I am sorry that I added a complement for danjel101 in the article brotherband. But after i added my complement I realised articles are not where you put complements so I'm sorry but will you let this incident go. Wtfiswithyourhead (talk) 00:38, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I'm sorry I'm not sure how to start a new thread. I have a problem : I just received a notification about someone on this IP ADRESS having vandalized a page of a school in my city. Now I haven't an account and didn't know that it was possible for me to edit pages on Wikipedia. So I'm confused, firstly is this possible that another person with acess to this IP ADRESS having done it? Or is it people who only have acess to this particular device? I'm quite a newbie on tech so please help me out. Will it be a permanent stain on my IP record? Amd what exactly is an IP address? The device I use is not private so could this be a warning to the ip a dress in general or me in particular? 92.97.16.133 (talk) 21:51, 26 August 2012 (UTC)a confused person
- Hello, and I'm sorry if this is a little confusing. I think the issue here is that your IP address is a shared IP. A shared IP means that multiple people share one IP address. In your case, the IP is registered to Emirates Telecommunications Corporation. The warning I gave to the IP address may not apply to you because you didn't make that edit. The only way you can stop getting irrelevant warnings is to create an account. I hope this helps you, if you need more help please reply back. -- Luke (Talk) 23:37, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the tip, and can I use your pic of the Towers of Light
LuK3, Thanks for the tip about signatures! I really admire your giant pic of the light towers in NYC! I'd really be delighted if you wouldn't mind me using it with all the cool useful links on my own user:page. Please let me know if this is okay.
Thanks again, WroteOddly (talk) 03:47, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Your speedy deletion nomination of Underx
I've had to decline your speedy deletion nomination of Underx. Even with the one sentence that the article had when you nominated it for speedy deletion, it still had enough context to determine what the subject of the article was- in this case, it said that the subject is an internet relay chat network. This makes the A1 speedy deletion criterion not applicable in this case, so I had to decline the nomination.--Slon02 (talk) 16:37, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry about that. -- Luke (Talk) 16:39, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
The Tea Leaf - Issue Five
Hi! Welcome to the fifth edition of The Tea Leaf, the official newsletter of the Teahouse!
- Guest activity increased in July. Questions are up from an average of 36 per week in June to 43 per week in July, and guest profile creation has also increased. This is likely a result of the automatic invite experiments we started near the end of month, which seeks to lessen the burden on hosts and other volunteers who manually invite editors. During the last week of July, questions doubled in the Teahouse! (But don't let that deter you from inviting editors to the Teahouse, please, there are still lots of new editors who haven't found Teahouse yet.)
- More Teahouse hosts than ever. We had 12 new hosts sign up to participate at the Teahouse! We now have 35 hosts volunteering at the Teahouse. Feel free to stop by and see them all here.
- Phase two update: Host sprint. In August, the Teahouse team plans to improve the host experience by developing a simpler new-host creation process, a better way of surfacing active hosts, and a host lounge renovation. Take a look at the plan and weigh in here.
- New Teahouse guest barnstar is awarded to first recipient: Charlie Inks. Using the Teahouse barnstar designed by Heatherawalls, hosts hajatvrc and Ryan Vesey created the new Teahouse Guest Barnstar. The first recipient is Charlie Inks, for her boldness in asking questions at the Teahouse. Check out the award in action here.
- Teahouse was a hot topic at Wikimania! The Teahouse was a hot topic at Wikimania this past month, where editor retention and interface design was heavily discussed. Sarah and Jonathan presented the Teahouse during the Wikimedia Fellowships panel. Slides can be viewed here. A lunch was also held at Wikimania for Teahouse hosts.
As always, thanks for supporting the Teahouse project! Stop by and visit us today!

its not a bloody personal attack! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 03alpe01 (talk • contribs) 11:33, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi LuK3, thanks for helping out at WP:RPP, a quick tip when noting (as a non-admin) that a request has already been fulfilled by an admin we generally use the "Already ... by" templates {{RFPP|ad}}, {{RFPP|ap}}, & {{RFPP|au}}. If you do use them then there is no need to use the nao template. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 12:11, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
- No problem, I usually use both templates, depending on the length of the protection. -- Luke (Talk) 13:22, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
Sources
What Sources do I need? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Im a mob guy (talk • contribs) 17:42, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
- All articles need reliable, third-party sources so the information in the article is verifiable. You can find some examples of reliable sources here. If you have more questions, you can ask me or go to the Teahouse, where other experienced editors can help you further. -- Luke (Talk) 17:46, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
Alright, I'll get to it. I'll remove the un-reliable sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Im a mob guy (talk • contribs) 17:55, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
AFC Backlog
Articles for Creation urgently needs YOUR help!
 Articles for Creation is desperately short of reviewers! We are looking for urgent help, from experienced editors, in reviewing submissions in the pending submissions queue. Currently there are 1442 submissions waiting to be reviewed and many help requests at our Help Desk.
If the answer to these questions is yes, then please read the reviewing instructions and donate a little of your time to helping tackle the backlog. You might wish to add {{AFC status}} or {{AfC Defcon}} to your userpage, which will alert you to the number of open submissions.
We would greatly appreciate your help. Currently, only a small handful of users are reviewing articles. Any help, even if it's just 2 or 3 reviews, it would be extremely beneficial. |
My RfA
Thank you for participating in my RfA. Although you abstained, I appreciate that you nonetheless took an interest in my candidacy by posting a question for me to answer, so as to give people a better idea of what to expect from me if I were an admin.

Dude, seriously, the whole thing was just a joke. Did you even read what was on EC's userpage to prompt it?

Luke, regarding this revert. The IP is correct, Evans is a convicted rapist. Maybe it isn't appropriate to include it where and how they did, but it certainly wasn't vandalism. Regards, Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 14:35, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
- His conviction was already stated in the 3rd paragraph of the lead. I don't think there is a need to add his conviction to the lead section according to Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section#Biographies of living persons. -- Luke (Talk) 14:48, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
- I agree, and was about the revert in good faith. The edit was certainly in good faith and if they were to be warned it should certainly shoudn't have been for vandalism. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 14:51, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Editing Jon Jones page
Vandalism? I was just adjusting the flags of his opponents. Matyushenko doesn't have a flag, so I put the Belarus one for him. Also André Gusmão is Brazilian, and not american, as indicates the flag on this page. What's wrong about that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kdu rollo (talk • contribs) 15:00, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
- Hello Kdu, it looks like you added some HTML class attributes to the article, which I removed. You can re-add the Belarus flag. Sorry about that. -- Luke (Talk) 15:04, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

The Tea Leaf - Issue Six
Hi! Welcome to the sixth edition of The Tea Leaf, the official newsletter of the Teahouse!
- Teahouse serves over 700 new editors in six months on Wikipedia! Since February 27, 741 new editors have participated at the Teahouse. The Q&A board and the guest intro pages are more active than ever.
- Automatic invites are doing the trick: 50% more new editors visiting each week. Ever since HostBot's automated invite trial phase began we've seen a boost in new editor participation. Automating a baseline set of invitations also allows Teahouse hosts to focus on serving hot cups of help to guests, instead of spending countless hours inviting.
- Guests to the Teahouse continue to edit more & interact more with other community members than non-Teahouse guests according to six month metrics. Teahouse guests make more than twice the article edits and edit more talk pages than other new editors.
- New host process implemented which encourages anyone to get started as a Teahouse host in a few easy steps. Stop by the hosts page and become a Teahouse host today!
- Host lounge renovations nearing completion. Working closely with Teahouse hosts, we've made some major renovations to the Teahouse Host Lounge - the main hangout and resource space for hosts. Learn more about the improvements here.
As always, thanks for supporting the Teahouse project! Stop by and visit us today!

Please put it back the way I had it.
Good evening LuK3,
I will choose to stay anonymous for this conversation. I know you meant well when you undid my changes but I spent a long time finding current info on Todd Witteles and I thought appropriate to show the screen shot I took from the FBI website and the current info on this person. This is a dangerous person and I thought it totally 100% appropriate to post what I did. Many people I know personally have been scammed and have had their lives ruined by this individual and now he is a fugitive. I thought I would edit his wiki page because I had a good conscience and thought it was the right thing to do to further protect the public and families that have been hurt by the actions of this criminal. I do not think the wiki page should be pushing him out as some sort of hero although I did leave the correct current info about him on the page about his poker career. So if you can , I am sincerely requesting that you please put it back the way it was. Thanks. Anonymous 108.85.230.11 (talk) 02:19, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
- The addition to Todd Witteles is a gross violation of biographies of living persons and specifically BLP: persons accused of a crime. Your edit also had no references to support your claim. See verifiablity and reliables sources. If LuK3 had not removed it, I or many others would have. Jim1138 (talk) 02:26, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Copyvio on Abu Yahya al-Libi?
I see several months back you added the {{Non-free}} tag at the Abu Yahya al-Libi page. Could you elaborate on the talk page what the problem is? Thanks. --Jprg1966 (talk) 20:59, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
- Probably because editors copied and pasted from news sources after his death. It seems like it was taken care of, the tag can be removed now. Hope I cleared it up. -- Luke (Talk) 21:04, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

This is not a newsletter
Anyway. You're getting this note because you've participated in discussion and/or asked for updates to either the Article Feedback Tool or Page Curation. This isn't about either of those things, I'm afraid ;p. We've recently started working on yet another project: Echo, a notifications system to augment the watchlist. There's not much information at the moment, because we're still working out the scope and the concepts, but if you're interested in further updates you can sign up here.
In addition, we'll be holding an office hours session at 21:00 UTC on Wednesday, 14 November in #wikimedia-office - hope to see you all there :). I appreciate it's an annoying time for non-Europeans: if you're interested in chatting about the project but can't make it, give me a shout and I can set up another session if there's enough interest in one particular timezone or a skype call if there isn't. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 11:07, 10 November 2012 (UTC)

RfA
While it didn't turn out like we hoped, there are a few things to be learned here. First, even those that opposed, praised your work and efforts, only feeling you need more experiences in other areas. While this means a delay in receiving the admin bit, my confidence in you in still complete and absolute. The opposing votes were mainly constructive and sincere, so I don't think anyone could hold any ill-will against anyone who felt a little more time is needed. I want to say thank you to everyone who participated, regardless of their !vote. There is no doubt in my mind that you will make an excellent admin, even if it isn't this week. As I've told you privately, I am still willing and wanting to work with you on the issues they raised. Everyone there discovered what I already knew, that you are a tremendous asset at Wikipedia. Lastly, thank you for allowing me the honor of nominating you, and I would be happy to do it again at a future date if you so chose. Dennis Brown - 2¢ © Join WER 22:12, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
- Greetings LuK3. I wanted to check in and say hello. I think Dennis has been pretty thorough with his summary; it's all good stuff, and I mostly agree. Dennis, I know you mean well, and so do I. I had a thought when I read the opening sentence; "it didn't turn out like we hoped". I would not advise anyone to ever place hope in the outcome of an RfA. I'm not saying I haven't done it, I'm thinking this is why it can leave you emotionally exhausted. The bit isn't nearly worth an investment of hope. IMO My76Strat (talk) 04:00, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
- Everyone "hopes" they get the bit at RfA, otherwise, you wouldn't put yourself through the stress of starting the process. Disappointment is part of life and we don't get what we want every time, but we learn from the experience and it makes us stronger. We both did hope he would get the bit, for Wikipedia's sake as well as his own personal growth and life experience. The hope hasn't changed, only the time line. Never be afraid of wanting something or hoping. There is always something to be learned, even when you don't get it. Dennis Brown - 2¢ © Join WER 12:24, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
- I know it happens Dennis, I've done it. But it's a mistake! It ain't worth the emotional investment. The best approach is to be willing to serve, and as willing to not serve, Heck, if a hopeful is not careful around here, someone will twist that to mean "you want it to bad" and slam you from that angle. If I'm going to share something I've learned, then I'm going to share it the way I was taught. So I've given my opinion, cheers. My76Strat (talk) 13:36, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

First of all, I gladly noticed that you made some changes according to more reliable facts and the purposes of Wikipedia. As I said before, I am the responsible for Mr. Joao Carlos Pereira and I really appreciate your job!
I am really sorry to be doing this, but I still do not agree on the fact that you are mentioning a name of another coach in Joao Carlos Pereira`s page. If you take a look at other coaches sites, they do not mention other coaches (competitors). It is very obvious and clear to me...
I will be glad to put an end to this and stop changing things, but PLEASE stop mentioning another coach.
Thank you LuK3!

- My two cents: this person, who seems to be some sort of agent/publicist for the manager in question, does not want any other coach to be mentioned in Mr.Pereira's page, even though in this case Pereira and João Resende Alves' career are intimately connected at Servette FC: ALVES started the season, was fired and replaced by PEREIRA, who was also sacked with ALVES taking his place - the user in question is having none of that, and i have already messaged him telling him his approach is 200% wrong.

- Hello, I fixed the wikitable for the "Filmography" and "Television" section. All I did was add the table end "|}" part of the wikitable. You can take a look at a quick summary of wikitables here. If you need any more help, let me know. -- LuK3 (Talk) 00:29, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you so much!
the only other thing i can't figure out is how to remove the File:Frameless alt from my picture box. I'm sure it's easy, i'm just not proficient at this. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fabrizio Goldstein (talk • contribs) 15:07, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
- I fixed it. It looked like you added the |thumb image parameter, thus creating the border and the frameless error. If you need any more help, I'll be happy to help you :). -- LuK3 (Talk) 00:55, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Virginia tech 2011 shooting subject.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Virginia tech 2011 shooting subject.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:20, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

DYK for Federal law of Russian Federation no. 272-FZ of 2012-12-28
 | On 25 January 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Federal law of Russian Federation no. 272-FZ of 2012-12-28, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the "Dima Yakovlev Law" forbidding American parents from adopting Russian children was named after a Russian toddler who died after his adoptive American father left him in a car for nine hours? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
