WS is now slowly developing with less conflicts. I guess you have moved away to other things, but would kindly like to ask you to support with vote [https://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikispecies:Requests_for_Comment  here], so we can reach the 25-30 votes minimum rule in order to be able to get local [[Wikipedia:CheckUser|Checkusers]], and get a local policy for CU, which will be the first step of developing more local solutions on WS.

[[:File:Lutheran Cathedral Helsinki edit.jpg]], a featured picture you photographed, has been [[Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/delist/Helsinki Lutheran Cathedral|nominated for delisting as a FP]] because it has been superseded by a recently promoted image.

==  [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[:Traveler DC-6300]] ==
[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|alt=Notice|48px|]]

The article [[:Traveler DC-6300]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>Non-notable product.  None of the links currently included as External Links are viable reliable, secondary sources.  Searching for additional sources only brings up sales/product pages, but no coverage.</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:Traveler DC-6300|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> [[User:Rorshacma|Rorshacma]] ([[User talk:Rorshacma|talk]]) 15:40, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
