Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion ↗). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was <code>true</code>. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to <code>false</code> in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is '''a workaround available ↗''' involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR ↗). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:31, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Thank you

Dead link in article 'Rutt Bridges ↗'

Hi. The article 'Rutt Bridges ↗' has a dead link ↗ that could not be repaired automatically. Can you help fix it?

Dead: http://www.mssu.edu/seg-vm/bio_s__rutt_bridges.html

You added this in December 2006 ↗.

The bot tested this link on 2 April, 4 April, 6 April, 17 April and today, but it never worked.

This copy from the archives ↗ might be good.

This link is marked with {{tl|Dead link}} in the article. Please take a look at that article ↗ and fix what you can. Thank you!

PS- ''you can opt-out of these notifications by adding <nowiki>{{Bots |deny=</nowiki>BlevintronBot<nowiki>}}</nowiki> to your user page or user talk page.''

Non-free rationale for File:Trinity tower book.jpg

64px|left|alt=|link= ↗
Thanks for uploading or contributing to ''':File:Trinity tower book.jpg ↗'''. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria ↗, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page ↗, and edit it to include a non-free rationale ↗.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions ↗" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion ↗. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion ↗ and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page ↗. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 08:58, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

Ways to improve Kodak Alaris

Hi, I'm Gatemansgc. GeoGreg, thanks for creating Kodak Alaris ↗!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation ↗ tools, as having some issues to fix. Potential sources to help expand your article:
https://rbj.net/2017/08/14/kodak-alaris-ceo-has-a-strong-focus/
http://www.crn.com/news/channel-programs/300091111/kodak-alaris-revamps-channel-program-opening-new-revenue-streams-to-partners.htm
http://wxxinews.org/post/kodak-alaris-ceo-talks-about-move-gates-and-companys-future

I'm new to new page patrolling, but the fact that this is the spinoff of a notable company might make it possible to keep its own notability.

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 ↗.
