Ways to improve Kittatinny Mountains
Hi, I'm Markdask. Philg88, thanks for creating Kittatinny Mountains!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. This remains a stub
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.
MarkDask 18:03, 5 May 2018 (UTC)
- Hi there markdask and thanks for the message. I didn't create the page, I moved it following a request at WP:RMT. No problem though and thanks for your efforts to improve Wikipedia. Cheers, Philg88 ♦talk 16:33, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
- Yeah inadvertant, I curated it so the message was automatic. The curation toolbar has a mind of its own

Orphaned non-free image File:EWO1920Ad1.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:EWO1920Ad1.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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 Wikipedia (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) 17:24, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

Bad move
There is no way this should have been called "uncontroversial". I hope you are more careful these days. Johnbod (talk) 12:57, 6 July 2018 (UTC)
- Hi there, Johnbod If you're unhappy about something that has gone unchallenged for 2 1/2 years then I suggest you start a move discussion at the appropriate talk page. Philg88 ♦talk 06:54, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
- No, I can't be bothered, but I do want to urge not to make the same mistake these days. As you probably know, the fact that a change to an obscure page like this "has gone unchallenged for 2 1/2 years" means virtually nothing. Johnbod (talk) 16:19, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

User:Philg88/uw-tilde
Hi Philg88. Are you still using User:Philg88/uw-tilde. Was it a sandbox? Checking because it's polluting the category. If it's something you no longer need, perhaps we can delete it? Thanks. --Bsherr (talk) 16:44, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Bsherr and thanks for the message. No, I don't need this so if you want me to delete it let me know as I believe it qualifies as G7. Best, Philg88 ♦talk 19:05, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks. Criterion U1 is an even better fit. I’ve gone ahead and tagged it to save you the trouble. Regards. Bsherr (talk) 20:05, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

EB1911 attribution
With Revision as of 07:45, 21 February 2016 to Ponce Denis Écouchard Lebrun with the editorial comment "References: Tweak ref" you altered {{EB1911}}
to {{cite EB1911}}
in doing so you removed the attribution (see WP:FREECOPYING):
{{EB1911}}
: This article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domain: "Lebrun, Ponce Denis Écouchard". Encyclopædia Britannica (11th ed.). 1911.{{cite EB1911}}
: . Encyclopædia Britannica (11th ed.). 1911.
However if you had run the Earwig's Copyvio Detector you would have seen that there was 77.6% chance that the text was copied from EB1911.
Have you made this change to the EB1911 template to may more articles? -- PBS (talk) 14:31, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
- Hi PBS and thanks for the message. I made the change to suppress the Harv reference error and as far as I recall there shouldn't be many similar edits. I will check my edit history around the same time and make any necessary corrections. Best, Philg88 ♦talk 08:54, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
{{EB1911}}
includes the parameter ref=. For such cases enter ref=none, however that is not usually desirable as one should usually either link short inline citations to it, or change it into an inline citation with the parameter inline=y
-- PBS (talk) 15:05, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for the info. Philg88 ♦talk 18:18, 3 December 2018 (UTC)

![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/2/28/Information.svg/30px-Information.svg.png)
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Untitled 2017 Star Trek TV series. Since you had some involvement with the Untitled 2017 Star Trek TV series redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so.

Invitation to join the Ten Year Society

Two years overdue! Congratulations, old friend. It's been a long time. I hope you are well. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 13:43, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
