User:PlanetCare, did you get an e-mail notification about this? (or even two?) EMsmile (talk) 21:55, 19 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Help me!

I am editing pages related to sanitation for the urban poor, and accomplishing SDG6. Our public education initiative at SuSanA (Sustainable Sanitation Alliance) aims to give the public unbiased information about water and sanitation. The Wikipedia App is becoming more common on cell phones in Africa and India, where water and sanitation issues abound. We need more visibility for private companies and wonder if it would (or wouldn't) be kosher to add companies to your project. Here's an example of one that's considered important to non-sewered sanitation: bioifilcom.net (Biological Filters and Composters). If appropriate, I would use the Toilet Board Coalition communications channel to ask toilet companies to come forward if they meet certain criteria, and our SuSanA Wikipedia team of volunteer writers could help research and write about such companies.

Please help me with.. .....knowing more about the companies you consider appropriate for inclusion.

Hi PlanetCare, Wikipedia must not be used to promote an agenda. That being said, so long as you are not attempting to promote an entity, you can create an article if it meets our inclusion criteria for organizations. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:26, 27 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I searched the links included in your response and think the thing to do is look for ways of appropriately referencing some of the sanitation companies when they have done noteable projects related to other topics. For now, I don't think any of the small sanitation companies would be noteable enough to warrant their own page.PlanetCare (talk) 18:26, 27 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Climate change in Kenya

[edit]

On 28 January 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Climate change in Kenya, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that malaria is expected to become more prevalent due to the impacts of climate change in Kenya? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Climate change in Kenya. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Climate change in Kenya), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (ie, 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Marine biology query

[edit]

Hi, PlanetCare; thanks again for your helpful input at Talk:Menstrual cycle, and your feedback in these edits. Separately I saw both Guettarda and Epipelagic raising some concerns elsewhere about some activity related to the Sanitation WikiProject, and wondered if you have anything to add about this edit at Talk:Marine biology? Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 12:35, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, PlanetCare; most considerate of you. [1] SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:29, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
