Award

 * Thanks for this. Wish you for your future! DRC-B5 (talk) 17:06, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * By the way, you should sign up for the writing contest we're holding, I think it'll be fun. Heavy Water (talk) 18:48, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

thanks for inviting but I'm currently in wikibreak. I might get rare time to access specially on first week of February onward. But don't worry I will sign up soon. DRC-B5 (talk) 03:54, 30 January 2023 (UTC)


 * That would actually work out fine, because the contest doesn't start until February 1. Heavy Water (talk) 04:38, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

re Talk:Secretary Blinken postpones China trip after a "spy balloon" detected over US
Hi, you have a new message at the talk page of the article, please check. Gryllida (talk) 20:33, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

aband
When tagging an article as abandoned, using the abandoned template does not provide the date, leaving unclear when the article is supposed to be deleted. Using subst:aband solves this problem. Thanks, --Heavy Water (talk) 16:19, 6 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Thnx @Heavy Water. DRC-B5 (talk) 16:55, 6 February 2023 (UTC)

You can also use File:Wikinews WikiNoob.png on your user page to indicate your article count if you wish. Heavy Water (talk) 00:53, 9 February 2023 (UTC)


 * I would thank to all users involved in this article processing.. Because they fixed the issues and it becomes a success. More over it was my idea of bringing it to Wikinews first but later delete it. Thanks to all.. DRC-B5 (talk) 02:29, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Chaetodipus also copyedited it, yes, but I'd say you contributed more than anyone else to those articles, so thank you. Heavy Water (talk) 02:40, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks @Heavy Water for the motivation and now I can have my studies happily. DRC-B5 (talk) 03:07, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

Ahead of state elections in north-east India, President Murmu appoints new governors
Are you sure about this request? If yes, I will delete because you are the only one who worked on it so far. I only glanced at it, but it looked interesting. SVTCobra 17:54, 12 February 2023 (UTC)


 * See @SVTCobra, I can't deny that it is newsworthy but I feel this would need more improvement which I can not have time to spend on it l. Still if so then I withdraw the request. DRC-B5 (talk) 17:57, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't know if it needs improvement, but I recommend leaving it as is if you don't have time. Maybe it gets published, maybe it does not. My feeling is there's no reason to speedy. Cheers, SVTCobra 18:19, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

Re: Pakistan reverses block on Wikimedia projects, including Wikipedia
Thanks for editing, appreciated. This is an interesting story. Gryllida (talk) 01:18, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi, please see comments I left about the article at Talk:President Biden chooses an Indian-American executive to lead World Bank. —chaetodipus (talk &middot; contribs) 08:56, 26 February 2023 (UTC)

Redirects
When creating categories, please also create a mainspace redirect like Imran Khan so the category can be linked to within articles. Thanks, Heavy Water (talk) 22:01, 8 March 2023 (UTC)


 * I forgot about that, sorry. Is this applicable for all categories related to person, place or subject which is most familiar with. M:DRC (talk) 03:33, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes. Also common variations on spelling should be used for redirects. This is especially important for topics/subjects where the name is not in English and/or the Latin alphabet. SVTCobra 03:40, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Understood, thanks. M:DRC (talk) 04:04, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Abandoned
I am sorry you are having to abandon so many (and quite long) articles. The review process has long been our bottleneck. I know you have asked me to review more, but there are just too many administrative tasks which I am almost the only one who can perform. I know it must be frustrating. I appreciate all the work you are doing. I really hope you don't get discouraged. Cheers, SVTCobra 04:34, 12 March 2023 (UTC)


 * No, it's ok @SVTCobra. I understand that the reviewing process is too slow here. A person can't just review for 24 hours. We are also too involved in our personal lives. So, thinking on this situation, I'm focusing on one article now. That would help me to improve just one and not diverting into two. M:DRC (talk) 06:15, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't know if we should say we are "too involved in our personal lives" ... I probably should be more involved in my personal life instead of letting wiki take so much of my time. But that just might be me. Cheers, SVTCobra 06:35, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
