:File:Affinity Designer.png ↗

left|25px|alt= ↗Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to :Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing ↗. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution ↗, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content ↗. RonBot (talk) 17:20, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

Kevin Lange

There's clearly a difference between Kevin Lange calling himself K. Lange as a stylistic thing (cf. J. R. R. Tolkien etc.), and calling himself K. Lange because he's pretending that "K." is his actual name. Unfortunately it's not a difference that's made out anywhere on the Internet, as far as I can see. If you have a reference for this, it might be an idea if you added it to the article. I can't see any grounds for hiding from the reader what "K." stands for. Wereon (talk) 04:12, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
:{{ping|Wereon}} Their old name isn't in any of the sources cited in the article, so your point is moot. Even if that wasn't the case, I am right on two different counts:
:# The current consensus ↗ is to prefer the subject's newest chosen name if listed in sources, and "K. Lange" is.
:# Per MOS:NAME ↗, articles should use the common form of a name: The Lord of the Rings ↗ mentions J. R. R. Tolkien ↗ not John Ronald Reuel Tolkien ↗. There is no provision or exception for when someone is "pretending" that something is their actual name. ― <kbd style="font-size:85%">novov t c ↗ </kbd> 06:15, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Your signature and linter errors

Just a reminder that your signature contains obsolete font tags. They create Linter ↗ errors, but unfortunately because the replacement signature <code><nowiki><kbd style="font-size:85%">novov t c ↗&#32;</kbd></nowiki></code> is too long (262 characters > 255), you are advised to change it to something else.

The purpose of this message is because Linter errors affect the way the page looks, and with a lot of errors, the page may render badly. To reduce Linter errors, please change your signature. See WP:SIGFONT ↗ for more info. Sheep (talk • he/him ↗) 22:05, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

RFA2024 update: no longer accepting new proposals in phase I

Hey there! This is to let you know that phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship (RfA) review ↗ is now '''no longer accepting new proposals'''. Lots of proposals remain open for discussion, and the current round of review looks to be on a good track towards making significant progress towards improving RfA ↗'s structure and environment. I'd like to give my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has given us their idea for change to make RfA better, and the same to everyone who has given the necessary feedback to improve those ideas. The following proposals remain open for discussion:

'''Proposal 2 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|HouseBlaster}}, provides for the addition of a text box at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship ↗ reminding all editors of our policies and enforcement mechanisms around decorum.

'''Proposals 3 ↗''' and '''3b ↗''', initiated by {{noping|Barkeep49}} and {{noping|Usedtobecool}}, respectively, provide for trials of discussion-only periods at RfA. The first would add three extra discussion-only days to the beginning, while the second would convert the first two days to discussion-only.

'''Proposal 5 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|SilkTork}}, provides for a trial of RfAs without threaded discussion in the voting sections.

'''Proposals 6c ↗''' and '''6d ↗''', initiated by {{noping|BilledMammal}}, provide for allowing users to be selected as provisional admins for a limited time through various concrete selection criteria and smaller-scale vetting.

'''Proposal 7 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|Lee Vilenski}}, provides for the "General discussion" section being broken up with section headings.

'''Proposal 9b ↗''', initiated by {{noping|Reaper Eternal}}, provides for the requirement that allegations of policy violation be substantiated with appropriate links to where the alleged misconduct occured.

'''Proposals 12c ↗''', '''21 ↗''', and '''21b ↗''', initiated by {{noping|City of Silver}}, {{u|Ritchie333}}, and {{u|HouseBlaster}}, respectively, provide for reducing the discretionary zone, which currently extends from 65% to 75%. The first would reduce it 65%–70%, the second would reduce it to 50%–66%, and the third would reduce it to 60%–70%.

'''Proposal 13 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|Novem Lingaue}}, provides for periodic, privately balloted admin elections.

'''Proposal 14 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|Kusma}}, provides for the creation of some minimum suffrage requirements to cast a vote.

'''Proposals 16 ↗''' and '''16c ↗''', initiated by {{noping|Thebiguglyalien}} and {{noping|Soni}}, respectively, provide for community-based admin desysop procedures. 16 would desysop where consensus is established in favor at the administrators' noticeboard ↗; 16c would allow a petition to force reconfirmation.

'''Proposal 16e ↗''', initiated by {{noping|BilledMammal}}, would extend the recall procedures of 16 to bureaucrats.

'''Proposal 17 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|SchroCat}}, provides for "on-call" admins and 'crats to monitor RfAs for decorum.

'''Proposal 18 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|theleekycauldron}}, provides for lowering the RfB target from 85% to 75%.

'''Proposal 24 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|SportingFlyer}}, provides for a more robust alternate version of the optional candidate poll ↗.

'''Proposal 25 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|Femke}}, provides for the requirement that nominees be extended-confirmed in addition to their nominators.

'''Proposal 27 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|WereSpielChequers}}, provides for the creation of a training course for admin hopefuls, as well as periodic retraining to keep admins from drifting out of sync with community norms.

'''Proposal 28 ↗''', initiated by {{noping|HouseBlaster}}, tightens restrictions on multi-part questions.

To read proposals that were closed as unsuccessful, please see Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I/Closed proposals ↗. You are cordially invited once again to participate in the open discussions; when phase I ends, phase II will review the outcomes of trial proposals and refine the implementation details of other proposals. Another notification will be sent out when this phase begins, likely with the first successful close of a major proposal. Happy editing! theleekycauldron ↗ (talk • she/her), via:

Heyo

Hello Novov. This message is nothing important at all. It's just a little sentimental I guess, because the last time we've spoken outside of the Omori talk page was at Rain World ↗. If you did not know, I got Rain World to be a ''Featured article ↗'' since you edited ↗ it in February 2024. I have to thank you, because without you trimming down the plot section, it probably would've looked super fancrufty for a millennia before I got my shit together and knew what I was doing. You still hold the 7th highest authorship for that page.

Rain World is one of my favorite video games of all time. Alongside it is ''Omori'', which I do plan to work on on my own time, because I absolutely love this damn game! Thanks for being the author of it, Novov!

P.S. And I do find it funny how both of my favorite games were already brought to GA before I started editing Wikipedia. I guess I'm just too slow! ''toby'' (t)(c ↗)(''rw'' ↗) 02:22, 10 May 2026 (UTC)

:No problem. Really appreciate you bringing ''Rain World'' to FA as well; it was one of the first VG articles I contributed to way back in 2017 ↗, when I was a lot less experienced. Funnily enough, I've never actually played it, though I do quite like ''Omori'' and have played that multiple times.  novov talk edits ↗ 09:51, 10 May 2026 (UTC)
