Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Outline of Uruguay, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Epiphany. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Status of resource request for Naturism in the United States?

[edit]

If you still want portions of the book:

  • Ilfeld, Fred Jr; Lauer, Roger (1964). Social Nudism in America. New Haven, Connecticut: College and University Press. LCCN 63-17367.

that you requested at Wikipedia:WikiProject Resource Exchange/Resource Request#Sources for Naturism in the United States, then email me so that I can attach a pdf of the index in reply. If I don't hear from you soon, I'll assume you no longer want the book, and will return it to the library on Saturday. --Worldbruce (talk) 00:39, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Worldbruce:: is any other way to get the index without having to send an email? That tool reveals the email address. --Onwa (talk) 01:25, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Onwa: Email is how it's almost always done. I've occasionally seen (younger?) volunteers at RX upload the pdf to a segregated cloud location, password protect it, then email the password (which, as plain text, doesn't first require an email from the requester). Alas, there are some tricks this dog is too old to figure out. I understand your concern about privacy. I use a throw-away email address for Wikipedia so that it doesn't matter if anyone ever leaks it. If you don't want to reveal your "real" email, you could do the same. What do you think? --Worldbruce (talk) 01:50, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, if you could do the trick of upload to a private cloud it would be helpful. --Onwa (talk) 14:36, 18 October 2023 (UTC) @Worldbruce: --Onwa (talk) 19:03, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I spent a couple hours this morning trying to figure out cloud sharing - what I need to install, what I need to subscribe to, how to configure it, how to upload a file, how to protect it - and I'm not getting anywhere. I give up; you'll need to get the source from someone more au courant with tech's bleeding edge. --Worldbruce (talk) 19:22, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Worldbruce: Don't worry about that. Anyways, thank you for your help and your efforts. --Onwa (talk) 21:23, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Only one month remains until the end of the contest, so it's time to make your remaining nominations! Please consider answering some review requests, particularly the older entries, as a way of helping out your fellow participants and moving up the leaderboard. Good luck!

DCWC closing update

[edit]

The 2024 Developing Countries WikiContest has come to a close! After a thrilling finish to the event with a slew of submissions on the final day, we have our winners. With 608 points, Bronze Belt Buckle – 3rd place Thebiguglyalien (submissions) comes in third with his series of Kiribati and Botswanan submissions; Silver Belt Buckle – 2nd place Tuvalu BeanieFan11 (submissions) flies into second place at the last second with 771 points after a string of good articles about sportspersons; and after leading for much of contest's three months, Gold Belt Buckle – 1st place Generalissima (submissions) finishes with a whopping 798 points to take home the Gold Belt Buckle. Congratulations to our winners!

In addition to his spot in the top three, Tuvalu BeanieFan11 (submissions) also wins the special awards for submitting under the most countries (44 countries) and for writing the most articles about women (15 Did you know? nominations)! India Magentic Manifestations (submissions), after making 16 submissions under the Indian flag—15 of them good articles—receives the awards for most submissions for a single country and most featured or good articles promoted. For their submission of one FAC review, five FLC reviews, and 20 GAN reviews, Simongraham (submissions) wins for most article reviews.

The results of the contest have far exceeded any expectations the coordinators had for it at the beginning: among the submissions to the event were 3 FAs, 10 FLs, 88 GAs, dozens of article reviews of every kind, and more Did you know? submissions than we can count! Regardless of your level of participation, every contestant can be proud to have contributed towards a major step in countering the systemic bias on Wikipedia. Every year, millions of readers and editors around the globe use Wikipedia to educate themselves and communicate with others about parts of the world that often receive less attention than they deserve. Thank you for participating with us in the contest and contributing to this effort. The DCWC will return next year and we look forward to seeing you contribute again! However, before that...

We need your feedback! Join the conversation on the talk page to discuss your reflections on the contest (even if you didn't participate!) and help us make it better.

If you have any questions, please leave a message on the contest talk page or ask one of the coordinators: Ixtal (talk · contribs), sawyer777 (talk · contribs), or TechnoSquirrel69 (talk · contribs).
