DYK for Minnesota State Capitol artwork

On 8 April 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Minnesota State Capitol artwork, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the golden rooftop charioteer (pictured) was removed during the restoration of the Minnesota State Capitol and its artwork? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Minnesota State Capitol artwork. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Minnesota State Capitol artwork), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Important Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Orphaned non-free image File:Stewart Rhodes-mug shot.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Stewart Rhodes-mug shot.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:38, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

Oath Keepers

You are within your rights to post a request for additional editors to look at the Oath Keepers question, however it is not up to you to summarize the arguments which will be evident on the article talk page. It is also not helpful to repeat that Conservatism group post on the already long article page, where editors have spoken for themselves. Please consider removing that box thing. SPECIFICO talk 19:07, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

That is why I am asking those debating help to contribute to the summarization. Why would you not want to?Myotus (talk) 20:28, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

Any interested editor is as capable as you or I to read the thread and come to a conclusion. Any summary will itself limit the information available to newcomers. SPECIFICO talk 21:22, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

There's nothing wrong with a short summary, if people are concerned, they can, as you said, read the whole thing. —Locke Cole • t • c 23:38, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

Good point. Myotus (talk) 01:43, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

border-radius

The {{border-radius}} template was deleted back in January 2021. My bot has fixed your edits for you, but it would be great if you fix your announcement to not use it in the future. Thanks! Plastikspork _―Œ 13:47, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

South Central Edit-a-Thon

Good afternoon, I signed up for the South Central Minnesota Edit-a-thon, and I couldn't help but notice that it is odd that Nicollet County is not included. Blue Earth & Nicollet Counties combine to form the Mankato-North Mankato MSA, include the neighboring cities of Mankato & North Mankato, are part of EDR-9. Do you think it would make sense to add Nicollet County to the list?  Ryan Vesey 18:23, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the catch! the omission was by error not intent. It was suppose to be included and I have added it in. Myotus (talk) 18:46, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
