Mate cocido/Mate (beverage)

Thank you for supplying a reason for your removal of categories. Your warning to not revert was not necessary. All that was required was an edit summary. Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:03, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers! No offense was intended; sorry if it seemed like I was assuming the worst. Have a good day! giso6150 (talk) 15:21, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Brazil river stubs

Please note that I intentionally didn't create Category:Brazil river stubs yet, although I certainly think that I would have created it later. The reasoin is that, as of now, there are only 19 articles tagged with the category's tag, and we generally wait until there are 60. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 05:15, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Od Mishehu: Yeah, sorry about that. I was planning to have a minimum of 60 that night but got pulled away. There are 65 now and I will continue adding some this weekend. giso6150 (talk) 14:42, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, I've started to create upmerged stub tags for Brazilian states, to eventually become their own categories - see {{AmazonasBR-river-stub}} for an example; please use the name as it appears in the geo-stub category tree. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 04:44, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstar

My pleasure - always happy to be of help. Thanks for the barnstar; I'll polish it up and put it on the shelf. :-)

Keep up the good work, and happy editing! --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 16:50, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Ser Amantio di Nicolao: It seems like your good work has been undone and I am not sure how to best proceed. Let me know if there is something that you think I should do. I don’t want to confuse the issue any further. giso6150 (talk) 20:03, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Cordless Larry: My edits were a good faith attempt to clean up an article and all of my words are my own. I did not translate the page that I cited word for word or in any other way violate copyright. What exactly did you base your decision on? Thank you. giso6150 (talk) 13:36, 30 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your reply, and sorry if this proves to be a false alarm. I certainly don't think you deliberately introduced copyright material. However, when I put the source text through a translator, the outcome was pretty close to the text of the article. This close paraphrasing, combined with the fact that almost all of the source text was used, was what made me flag it for investigation. Cordless Larry (talk) 14:03, 30 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Editor of the Week

		Editor of the Week
		Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week for your determination and dedication to help the encyclopedia grow. Thank you for the great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)

Editor Daniel Sousa submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

I nominate Giso6150 for his outstanding work with WikiProject Brazil, reviving a mostly inactive project with the creation of taskforces, articles and page assessment. His meticulous work with creating new categories is also noteworthy, having a patience few have in organizing pages. With over 31000 edits and perfect use of edit summaries I think Giso deserves to be Editor of the Week.

You can copy the following text to your user page to display a user box proclaiming your selection as Editor of the Week:

Thanks again for your efforts! Buster Seven Talk 14:49, 30 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
