Could you add Oman to your "Universal Health Care World Map"? The country does provide universal health care to its citizens.

Oman also does provide universal health care to its citizens. Here are some sources for verification:

• An introduction to health care in Oman: Oman now has a public health service providing free or very low cost health care for its nationals.
• Umited Nations World Health Organization Oman

Thank you

Hi

Could you, please, provide a reference to your contribution at Putin must go? That is really important, because now everybody can simply remove your contribution because it's not proved by a reference. (A link to an article in Russian would be OK.)

By the way, I remember it was reported earlier in the course of campaign that there were some really bizarre names among the signatures, such as V. V. Putin, what indicated that a lot of people just had some fun on the expense of that website, instead of actually signing their real names ? Could it be reported as well ?..

Edits length of page etc

Hi

Thanks for the reply - although you seem to have placed it in the middle of the page instead of the end I fixed it.

If a page is getting too long we can set up an archiving feature which copies old text in to /archive pages similar to this one
look at the top right corner of the page and you will see this -

The important thing to remember is that discussions shouldnt need to be had again and again so leaving them visible or in the archive means that people who may want to say something can read previous posts and see how discussions went

Any problems or questions feel free to get in touch :¬)

The Commons, and Alvin Greene

What you're going to need here is someone who is also an admin over on the Commons, has access to OTRS, as well as adminstratorship here- unfortunately, that s not me- I only possess the last one. User:NuclearWarfare, User:Rlevse, and User:MBisanz possess all three abilities to pull some folks off the top of my head that should be able to help you. Courcelles (talk) 16:46, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

psychological or emotional neglect

Hi Innab,

I have read some of the research literature on psychological or emotional neglect and I find the Wikipedia articles, particularly "Neglect" and "Child neglect" lacking. Please take a look at the discussion pages for those two articles and see if you can improve the articles. I'm very interested in what neuroscience can tell us about the consequences on brain development with regards to psychological or emotional neglect. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Survey

Hi Innab!

I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!

It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!

Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!

Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!

Gulag

I reverted your last change. If you believe the header should be modified, feel free to do that. However, my explanations on the Gulag talk page should be taken into account.--Paul Siebert (talk) 17:47, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

Please, read my last post on the Gulag talk page, and self-revert. Your last edits are totally illegitimate.--Paul Siebert (talk) 21:21, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

References

Please use high quality references per WP:MEDRS such as review articles or major textbooks. This [2] and [3] are not a high quality source. Thanks

Please use secondary sources from the last 10 years per WP:MEDRS. Peer reviewed articles are not necessarily secondary sources. Review articles are different than peer reviewed articles. Cheers --Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 20:06, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.

Foster care

Hello, no offense but I wasn't aware that I needed consensus to improve an article. which is what I'm doing. People in Australia, the UK etc don't care about Constitutional issues etc. regarding foster care in the US.The article Foster care in the United States is where something like that belongs. And that's where it is. I started Foster care in the United Kingdom and Foster care in Australia. When I get a chance i will get to others. So you you possibly refrain from blowing a shitfit until I am done? It will be greatly appreciated. Also as you may or may not be aware I am an ex-foster child, so I would not do anything that is detrimental to understanding the issue. I also wrote a large part of Foster care in the first place as far as the negative effects, to help elucidate the matter for other current or former foster children. 7mike5000 (talk) 08:22, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 22

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Valeria Lukyanova, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page V Magazine (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.

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Incarceration in the United States may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

"Show Preview"

Hi mate. If possible, try to use the Show Preview button at the bottom of the editing screen to check your edits as you go, rather than saving, re-saving and re-saving again for every minor copy-edit. For those who have particular articles or discussions on their Watchlists, that sort of editing technique can get really annoying. So far you've made 20 minor edits to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Valeria Lukyanova (2nd nomination) without tagging any of them as minor and without a single edit summary. Just try to be careful if you can, or preview what you're posting before hitting save, yeah? Stalwart111 04:19, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 04:52, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to!

Total fertility rate map

Hello. In your map of the TFR per countries, you colored Mali in orange, which according to the key mean a 4-5 TFR. Yet in your source Mali is shown as having a 5,96 TFR, which mean it should be colored in red on the map. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Countriesbyfertilityrate.svg --Aréat (talk) 15:58, 29 November 2016 (UTC)

C&P page move

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Please see Custody Evaluator, Custody Evaluation and Custody evaluation. You need not take any action regarding these three pages, because they have already been listed at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge#New Requests, and believe me, I myself have done things like this, so don't be too hard on yourself. Thanks again for your contributions!  Paine Ellsworth  ^put'r there  16:52, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
