Hello 🙂
I hope you are fine, I am reaching out as you are an extended confirmed user and of course a horse lover. I was checking the page with the list of social networking websites (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_social_networking_websites) and found out that there wasn't in the list the social network for horse lovers: Horsealot. I was wondering if you would consider adding it? I don't know if you already used Horsealot, it's a platform where you can talk with riders from everywhere, ask your questions, help others...
Have a nice day 🙂

HelloGeorginahal! I have actually never heard of it, but if you'd like to educate me about it I may be willing to pitch out!Horsegeek(talk)00:41, 16 February 2019 (UTC)Horsegeek[reply]
Hi againHorsegeek(talk)Here is the link of the network:https://www.horsealot.com/questions/trending , you also have an app. I use it to ask questions about my horse's health, equipment, when I need some advice when I have a problem in the ring with my horse... I also like the fact that you can help other riders by sharing our experiences, and you can discover other equestrian cultures (I met a polo player in Argentina and it's so different from what I know!).— Precedingunsigned comment added byGeorginahal (talk •contribs)10:03, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hello! Your submission ofTemplate:Did you know nominations/Negatiw at theDid You Know nominations page is not complete; if you would like to continue, please link the nomination to the nominations page as described instep 3 of the nomination procedure. If you do not want to continue with the nomination, tag the nomination page with{{db-g7}}, or ask aDYK admin. Thank you.DYKHousekeepingBot (talk)08:21, 25 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
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 toCategory: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 atWP: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 thebot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them atWikipedia talk:Non-free content. SeeUser:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.RonBot (talk)18:04, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello
Our team at the Wikimedia Foundation is working on a project to improve the ease-of-use and productivity of wiki talk pages. As a Teahouse host, I can imagine you’ve run into challenges explaining talk pages to first-time participants.
We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis – to ask questions, to resolve differences, to organize projects and to make decisions. Communication is essential for the depth and quality of our content, and the health of our communities. We're currently leading a global consultation on how to improve talk pages, and we're looking for people that can report on their experiences using (or helping other people to use) wiki talk pages. We'd like to invite you toparticipate in the consultation, and invite new users to join too.
We thank you in advance for your participation and your help.

Hi, I have been working on the Foulden Maar DYK at the same time as you. I do not need the QPQ and another set of eyes would be great (I am a geologist and may not know what normal people find interesting). If you are not interested, I can give it the GTG. Happy either way, just don’t want to step on your toes. (Dushan Jugum (talk)02:20, 20 May 2019 (UTC)).[reply]
Much appreciated. Have a few things but a priority would be how does one organize maximum participation at WikiProject Horse racing? I wantto start by getting a consensus on a standardized Winners table.
You wrote: "Hey there! I've noticed you've seemed to have trouble with a couple of aspects on Wikipedia". Help me out by giving me some examples where I'm having trouble then for sure would seek some input from you and/or others. Thanks.Stretchrunner (talk)11:01, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Really do appreciate your efforts. Very thoughtful.
I wasn't aware or don't remember (an age thing) I had a "few drafts go unaccepted" - can you give me some links?
Do I understand thatUser:Horsegeek/Spirit Animals (series) doesn't come up in Wikipedia but is only accessible by you or through your page? If so, what do you do with the page when you are done? Plus, I still haven't really figured out what my "Sandbox" is for.
Wikipedia: WikiProject Equine - looks interesting but I have to prioritize. Horses are a big thing in my family, be it ownership of T'breds for racing through partnerships, or dressage and cross-country horses for my daughter and now granddaughters.
As to the "Winners table" - it is fundamental to any article on any horse race. Wikipedia has many variations that need to be standardized. Firstly, with the input columns then the setup within each column (I'm talking North America only but Europe etc. has it's own unique setup(s)). And, we have them in a rainbow of colors. As soon as I get a moment, I'll find a few and post a link here so you can see what I mean. After we create a standard table through consensus then there are numerous other issues, i.e. the Wikipedia "general notability guideline" which has one standard for some sports and a near-opposite for others.Stretchrunner (talk)14:26, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your offer of help. Question: I am doing an article where I have a major source that I will need to reference several times. Somewhere I saw an article where they did the initial ref in what (if I remember right) was in the standard way but each successive use of that ref had a simple short version that got the same ref # throughout. Can you show me how I could create that? Much thanks.Stretchrunner (talk)16:46, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
