Hi Diannaa,
Your note says you were deleting information that appeared earlier in the article. However I find no mention of Romani/Gypsies anywhere else. Please check.
Thanks,

Hi; I found it:
Between 1939 and 1945, the SS, assisted by collaborationist governments and recruits from occupied countries, were responsible for the deaths of eleven to fourteen million people, including about six million Jews, representing two-thirds of the Jewish population in Europe, and between 500,000 and 1,500,000 Roma.
Just how did Br'er Rabbit find that article I mentioned, one he's certainly never edited, as only myself and two others have? I'll give you a hint: he followed me there (most likely to annoy me), and I was just editing it minutes earlier. It was a "poke". If you can come up with another rational explanation, I'd love to hear it. I hope he doesn't make a habit of that with me, as it would likely indicate that he has not learned the lesson not to do those sorts of things. As I said, I've no interest in following him around and I've known about his account since the day he started editing with it. When the "appropriate venue" comes up, I may or may not have something to say. Don't think I didn't see the last community ban attempt at AN/I. You see me starting threads on him? Not gonna happen. I will comment on him only in the appropriate venues, and only when I see fit to. You will not ever again see me commenting on any discussions involving him on his friend's talk pages, or any article talk page anywhere (unless I am involved there); and you certainly will never see me following his edits around and poking him. You have a good day, Diannaa! Doc talk 03:05, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

I've heard this one twice in the last two days on CKUA.
Hi Diannaa thanks for helping me rid of my wikibreak enforcer. I have one more little favor to ask. Could you recreate these three pages for me. which I had deleted out of worry that they might have identifiable information. I think they don't though.·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 22:04, 13 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi Dianna. The discussion on the talk page seems to have slowed down, though some of the dicussions didn't really bottom out. I'm thinking that tomorrow morning I might start a new section summarizing where I think we're at, on the basis that the latest proposals not disagreed with are probably a consensus, and invite everyone to have one more kick and scream if desired. Then, if nothing happens, I could create the drive page on, say, Wednesday morning (the 20th). Would you be happy with that? Also, would you like to continue as chair of the reviewers, or would you like me to take that over? Best, Simon. --Stfg (talk) 20:01, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

Before I remove, wanted to point out to you that there is no source for: "After Torossian criticized publicist Lizzie Grubman, attorney Benjamin Brafman dropped 5W as his publicists in 2005," (TOWARDS the bottom of article) - Will you remove ? Ok ? 67.243.55.103 (talk) 11:39, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

For your outstanding support and dedication in getting Yogo sapphire from a new article to DYK to GA to FA and FOUR. The team effort of the uncountable people involved in getting this unique article to FA is a textbook case of teamwork in article improvement, ie, what Wikipedia should be, not what it all too often is. I can never thank everyone enough. PumpkinSky talk 23:18, 20 June 2012 (UTC) |
Thanks! Though I was merely Dave Lumley on this one, a winger on the third line. -- Dianna (talk) 00:30, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

why did you vandalize that page? i challenge you and all the other people to show me that what i wrote are not based on facts. go ahead, show me the proof. you people are so lame. i added all the references, you still keep vandalizing that page. I wonder how much bo guagua paid you to do his dirty work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CC6B:6B90:156A:D24F:FCE8:F749 (talk) 09:52, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi Dianna. I've drafted a drive invitation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Newsletters/June 2012. Please would you check it over? Also, it seems we're better at using newsletters to announce December elections than June ones. Should we belatedly do so, or add a note to this one, or not worry? I've done all the other preparatory actions for the drive except changing the userbox, which you've already done. Ciao, --Stfg (talk) 13:12, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
Invitation from the Guild of Copy Editors
The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in their July 2012 Backlog elimination drive, a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on July 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on July 31 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to eliminate the articles tagged in April, May and June 2011 from the queue and to complete all requests placed before the end of June. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits more than 4,000 words, and special awards will be given to the top 6 in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", "Number of articles of over 5,000 words", "Number of articles tagged in April–June 2011", and "Longest article". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Dank, Diannaa and Stfg. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

Hey, thank you very much for deleting the userpages I requested you to be deleted, however one, User:M.Mario/sandbox:References & Images wasnt meant to be deleted, and it was a mistake. Is there any way you can get it back? If so great; if not do not worry. Thanks :) — M.Mario (T/C) 15:11, 22 June 2012 (UTC) Done Page has been restored -- Dianna (talk) 18:31, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
Repeating what I said in this edit summary you may not otherwise see, please do not arbitrarily add things to OTD without discussion. Since you are apparently not familiar with how the section works, there are pre-selected hooks reviewed and made available for use. The birth of Alan Turing is not one of these, and birthdays are never posted as full-fledged blurbs (as you did). Instead, for centenary birthdays, they might be put at the top of the section with the other observances. As you apparently didn't notice, Alan Turing was already linked there. -- tariqabjotu 03:06, 23 June 2012 (UTC)

Diannaa, I don't understand the copyright issue you raised about File:Disneys-contemporary-resort-mosaic-closeup.jpg. As noted in the file description, that is a photograph that I took with my camera and licensed under the GFDL. What is the issue with it? - Brian Kendig (talk) 20:27, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
Regarding this picture... when I wrote the article I contacted the family and requested a photo of Charles Sauriol. I received this from Andre Flys, his grandson. He gave me permission to use it as part of the Wikipedia article. I mentioned this in the comments and I thought that this was sufficient. This was back in 2006. I no longer have a record of that conversation. How do you suggest I proceed? Atrian (talk) 22:21, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi Dianna. Is there a reason why we extract drive results to a separate page and transclude it back? --Stfg (talk) 18:13, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
I have reverted these new templates. {{sfn|UNAIDS|pp=1–10}} The reason is that this page is going to be translated into as many other languages as possible with the help of translators without borders as per Most fancy templates simply do not work. Everything else looks good. Thanks Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (please reply on my talk page) 01:46, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi there, sorry about that. Edit warring is not my intention. However, as you can observe from the edit history and content, User:MATF55 has been promoting Persian nationalism into wiki articles. There should be little tolerance for nationalism on Wikipedia. Please be fair, and block MATF55 for this disturbance. Thank you. (174.255.114.81 (talk) 22:07, 26 June 2012 (UTC))

Your revert of unsourced content in the article for Princeton Day School was reverted. A trivial search in Google News Archive for the terms "Antoine Hoppenot" and "Princeton Day" identified this source, one of dozens that are available to establish his attendance at the school. There are millions of unsourced statements and factoids throughout Wikipedia, including in virtually any article you have ever worked on. This can be remedied by their removal, or the missing sources can be added after tagging the content as needing citations, notifying the editor who added the content that sources are needed, searching for and adding the sources yourself or any combination thereof, all of which are far more likely to lead to a better encyclopedia.

You were referred to me by User:Mark Arsten as someone who certainly has the skills needed, and who may be willing to help out with some prose and punctuation issues at Paul McCartney, which is also currently at FAC. Thanks, hope this isn't a bother. ~ GabeMc (talk) 04:18, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi Diaanna, I suspect this user is in effect this and this user who are trying to revert and change accounts. They have caused some disruption on Sant Nirankari Mission. I am having problems trying to report Sockpuppetry. Can you help? Thanks SH 20:58, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

I don't know exactly what to do after I have completed an article. Could you explain it clearly? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ian159 (talk • contribs) 01:46, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi, Ian159, and thank you for your interest in helping out with copy edits. What you have to do is add the article and its word count to your section of the drive page. Suppose you have copy edited the article "Example", and it's a thousand words. Make this edit to your section of the drive page:
=====[[User:Ian159|Ian159]] ([[User talk:Ian159|talk]])===== {{GOCE Article list |articles = # {{Completed}} [[Example]] (1,000) # {{Working}} [[]] () |total-articles = 1 |total-words = 1,000 |rollover-words = 0 }} ----
If it's a really old article (May, June, or July 2011), add the notation *O after the word count. Since you are new here, I would not recommend you take any articles from the Requests page just yet. If you are unsure how to get the word count, please look at the instructions on the drive main page (and if you can't figure it out please feel free to ask me or one of the other coordinators). Oh, and that's one hella nice user page you got there, homes. :-) -- Dianna (talk) 02:15, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi! Thank you very much for time and effort put into copyediting the Central Croatia. You really improved the article and I appreciate it.--Tomobe03 (talk) 08:49, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
He's tried once again to insert incorrect information into the ISKCON Temple Bangalore article, replacing the link to the official website with a Wordpress blog that sells stuff. Most of his other edits tried to use this site too, and tried to make this site out as the official site. I'm having a hard time not believing he's making money from the site. Ian.thomson (talk) 15:35, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
Diannaa, I'm slightly embarrassed! I mistakenly marked California sea lion as {{completed}} rather than {{working}} when I first listed it on the drive page, and I think I had only completed the first of three rounds of copyediting to the article when you checked my work. I'm glad it still passed muster, but it must have looked like I hadn't done much at that point. Thanks, BDD (talk) 18:47, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
I think you should look at the editing history of Santiago. A new editor has taken it on and another editor is undoing some of his work. A high visibility article. --Greenmaven (talk) 07:02, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
Thanks very much Diannaa for copy editing the Capture of Afulah and Beisan article. I am very grateful for your time and interest. Kind regards, --Rskp (talk) 05:10, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

I am concerned about the editing of this article, and the neutrality (or not) of User:Arthur Rubin. This editor seems to specialise in articles related to Climate Change and other environmental topics. I hope you have time to look at it. --Greenmaven (talk) 07:56, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
