Cauca tree frog

I was hitting random article and stumbled upon that one ;) Tsugaru let's talk! :) 03:26, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Short but dramatic. I expect a call from the Pulitzer committee any day now. ;D Darkfrog24 (talk) 04:18, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

What's the Pulitzer committee? I never heard of it. Tsugaru let's talk! :) 03:27, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Ha. The Pulitzer is a journalism/writing award. It's like the Nobel prize. It is a joke because surely this little stub article is not Pulitzer material. Darkfrog24 (talk) 03:32, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

HA! Now it makes a lot of sense! Tsugaru let's talk! :) 03:33, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Feminism and Folklore 2023

On Fontan[1], I ask you to delete the article Ural Batyr and add it again as Aidar254. Thank you.--Aidar254 (talk) 18:45, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

I'll see if I can do that. Is @ZUFAr: you too? Darkfrog24 (talk) 00:33, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

Aidar254 asked me to add an article to the fountain. I did it wrong. I also ask you to correct it. This article was written by Aidar254. I can't to correct it.--ZUFAr (talk) 04:34, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

Thank you. Now I understand. Darkfrog24 (talk) 04:37, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

@Aidar254: Done. Resubmit when you wish. Darkfrog24 (talk) 15:11, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, I added the article myself.--Aidar254 (talk) 16:26, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

QD type in Mazumbai warty fro

hey buddy, noticed you used the custom rationale. typos in redirects actually have a criteria in the criteria for quick deletion, listed as R3. just wanted to let you know Angerxiety 15:05, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) I don't know if you have the twinkle gadget added in your preferences Darkfrog, but it adds a “TW” drop-down menu that can help with tagging pages for deletion and chooses specific QD criteria. It also makes reverting a bit faster than the undo button. Best, --IWI (talk) 15:34, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

I in fact do not have it enabled. Thanks. Darkfrog24 (talk) 15:46, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

Ah ok, it could be quite helpful in future if you're interested. :) Best, --IWI (talk) 17:28, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

GA VGA has changed

Hi, you commented on or edited one or more articles that are up for GA VGA review. The system now requires !votes within a shorter period of time, which has already elapsed, but seems there is a bit of a grace period. Without at least five editors voting (up or down), no articles can be promoted. Please have a look here [2]. Thank you, Gotanda (talk) 00:14, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Darkfrog24 (talk) 01:31, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

Thank you

Thanks for the froggy articles. We need more amphibians on Simple English Wikipedia. Barbara (talk) 00:02, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

They're easy to make because they're all the same format, but you're welcome. Darkfrog24 (talk) 00:04, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

Template talk:Taxonomy/Combretaceae

Hello, please change "family" to "familia" at Template:Taxonomy/Combretaceae. This is causing the family not to appear on taxoboxes. 172.56.209.64 (talk) 22:34, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

Done, but you could do this yourself. Darkfrog24 (talk) 22:37, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

It looks like you typed "famila" (missing the second i). I think IP users can't edit taxoboxes. When I tried to edit it, it said :

\

You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason:

⧼Titleblacklist-taxobox-template⧽

\

Thanks! 172.56.209.64 (talk) 22:39, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

I see. I'll fix it immediately. Darkfrog24 (talk) 22:54, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

Error fix

Your user page was generating a linter error where it did not recognize the 15opx parameter on an image. I let the system autotune the image (edit page => edit image => shift between custom and default and back to the original setting then save its chosen syntax) this seems to have clear the error with minimal effect to the page. Pure Evil (talk) 03:26, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks. Darkfrog24 (talk) 11:05, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Projects

Hi buddy! How are you? Hope you are doing well! Do you have any information about the edition of Wiki Loves Women South Asia for this year? It was in 2021's edition (I believe) where we met each other for the first time. And regarding, Wikipedia Asian Month (in this coming November), will you take part? Haoreima (talk) 12:10, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

I'm not sure, but thank you for reminding me about it. Hey, how have they been on prizes? Darkfrog24 (talk) 12:12, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

Except for 2021 edition, I haven't participated in those 2 events yet. For Wiki Loves Women South Asia, they sent me Amazon gift coupon. For Wikipedia Asian Month, they had to give the winners postcards. Unfortunately, I received no postcards yet.

On another note, I think both of us had participated Feminism and Folklore (February-March annually) too. In the last year's event (2022), I received USA's Amazon gift coupon, which turned out to be useless for me, as I live in India? I complained. So, in the next year (this year), they gave Indian coupon. What happened to yours? Haoreima (talk) 12:19, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

I was never competing for prizes. I just wanted to make sure the winners got theirs. Darkfrog24 (talk) 12:28, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

🙈🙈🙈 Me too not aiming for prizes. That's why I am always trying to see for Wikipedia Asian Month even though I didn't receive postcards. I am creating wikipedia articles (either in one wiki or another) at the same pace even in other times. 🙈🙈🙈😜 Haoreima (talk) 12:34, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

No I mean I literally wasn't a contestant. I had zero entries. I couldn't have won the prize! Darkfrog24 (talk) 00:36, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

Did you know?

Hello, how would it feel to have an article featured at DYK? - Do yoi want to propose something interesting at the proposals page? Eptalon (talk) 16:23, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Sounds fine to me. Darkfrog24 (talk) 16:27, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Here's one of the frogs I was talking about: Bromeliad tree frog. Darkfrog24 (talk) 22:28, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

Request?

Hi, hope you're doing well. I was wondering if you would consider helping out at User talk:AmandaDarlingInc? They are a new user, who made an edit to Opossum which was originally reverted but was now restored. There were some problems with error categories, which I have fixed, but the other concerns are with simple English and making sure the references are reliable. I'm not that good at writing in simple English, but it seems you've written lots of simple pages using scientific sources, so I think you'd be knowledgeable about this. Kk.urban (talk) 16:41, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Frogs

Hi! I like frogs and think they are cute but don't find them fascinating. What is it about them that you find intriguing? fr33kman 18:25, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

It's less that I find them intriguing and more that I've figured out how to write frog articles well and efficiently. It's like lowering the activation energy of a chemical reaction. It might not be the loudest bang, but it was a whole lot for what I put into it. Darkfrog24 (talk) 18:29, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
