Hola cómo estás? Nice to meet you! I think you should join Wikipedia:WikiProject Beauty Pageants because as I can see that you are very helpful. Gracias! Ciao! Angelo De La Paz (talk) 02:28, 20 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hello. I'm quite well, thank you. How about you? Thanks for the invitation. Would you mind telling me how I join Wikipedia:WikiProject Beauty Pageants? I have been writing some articles on Miss Universe Pageant in Spanish Wikipedia, as well, along with a Mexican mate. I have tried to complete the information here, that's all. Thanks for your message. Bye!--Alpinu (talk) 02:57, 20 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

  • Oh, it's very easy: write some words about yourself [1]. That's all, I've added the icon to your page. Muchas gracias. See ya!

Hi. When you recently edited Blessing, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Adiós (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hola Alpinu,

Hey there!

I just nominated the linked article for PROD, because it was listed at WP:PNT without any real translation taking place. Then I noticed that you had done some work on it, so I wanted to be sure to let you know. This wasn't to make you feel like your translation isn't wanted/needed, I just hadn't noticed (sorry). If you want to keep working on it, just remove the PROD and keep on going ahead! Thanks, menaechmi (talk) 17:18, 20 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Help request for mapping section titles

Hi. We (the Research Team at Wikimedia Foundation) are building an algorithm that will align Wikipedia article sections across languages. For improving this algorithm we need the help of multilingual Wikipedia editors to provide true statements to the algorithm. You are contacted because based on your Babel template and/or content translation tool usage you know at least two of the following languages: ar (Arabic), fr (French), ja (Japanese), en (English), es (Spanish), ru (Russian).

(Note: by clicking the links in the following paragraph, you will be taken to Google spreadsheet.) If you'd like to help us with translating a subset of the section titles on or before 2018-05-01, please read and follow the instructions. If you see instructions in another language, please scroll down to find your preferred language. If you have questions about this message, you can contact us via Diego. Thank you! :) --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 18:01, 17 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Strait of Magellan

edit

Hi -- you should read the parameter descriptions for template:infobox body of water. The "basin_countries" parameter is not for describing where the item is ("location" does that), but rather which countries the item drains -- i.e., which countries have water bodies that flow into the item in question. Lago Fagnano in Argentina drains into the Strait, so Argentina must be included in the list of basin_countries. -- Elphion (talk) 13:50, 17 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Sweden's medal count in the 1920 Olympics

edit

Hi!

On Talk:Sweden at the Olympics you reported that Sweden's medal count at the 1920 Olympics (19-20-25) was not the same as reported on IOC's olympic.org site (19-18-24). I double checked this today, and it appears IOC has since edited their count to be in line with the 19-20-25 medal count already reported.

You reported this more than 13 years ago, so I figured it was about time someone responded :P -- Lejman (talk) 18:48, 5 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
