GA Sweeps update

Thanks to everyone's efforts to the GA Sweeps process, we are currently over 90% done with only 226 articles remain to be swept! As always, I want to thank you for using your time to ensure the quality of the older GAs. With over 50 members participating in Sweeps, that averages out to about 4 articles per person! If each member reviews an article once a week this month (or several!), we'll be completely finished. At that point, awards will be handed out to reviewers. As an added incentive, if we complete over 100 articles reviewed this month, I will donate $100 to Wikipedia Forever on behalf of all GA Sweeps participants. I hope that this incentive will help to increase our motivation for completing Sweeps while supporting Wikipedia in the process. If you have any questions about reviews or Sweeps let me know and I'll be happy to get back to you. Again, thank you for taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 00:16, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Loss of content during redirect of Academy Award, Best Short Subject, One-reel

Hi, back in June you redirected Academy Award, Best Short Subject, One-reel to Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film with the edit summary "that article contains all this info already." However, a quick glance at the source page reveals that that is clearly not the case. None of the nominated films past 1940 are present in the target page: literally dozens of films are missing. I see from your Talk page message that you're busy with studies so I'll add them back in. But please be more careful in the future when doing redirects to ensure that information is not lost. thanks, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:38, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

No probs. Oddly, another editor merging the two-reelers made exactly the same assumption: I restored those noms as well. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 21:04, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Thank you note re: Nahum Gergel article

February GA Sweeps update

Progress as of January 2010

Thanks to everyone's efforts to the GA Sweeps process, we are currently over 95% done with around 130 articles left to be swept! Currently there are over 50 members participating in Sweeps, that averages out to about 3 articles per person! If each member reviews an article once a week this month (or several!), we'll be completely finished. At that point, awards will be handed out to reviewers. Per my message last month, although we did not review 100 articles last month, I still made a donation of $90 (we had 90 reviews completed/initiated) to Wikipedia Forever on behalf of all GA Sweeps reviewers. I would like to thank everyone's efforts for last month, and ask for additional effort this month so we can be finished. I know you have to be sick of seeing these updates (as well as Sweeps itself) by now, so please do consider reviewing a few articles if you haven't reviewed in a while. If you have any questions about reviews or Sweeps let me know and I'll be happy to get back to you. Again, thank you for taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 02:44, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Info on Blizzard template

Thanks for your input on the Blizzards in the United States template. If the conditions you mentioned are the case then that would mean the "category:Blizzards in the United States" would also require adjusting since I included articles listed in that category which I included in the template to make it more complete. If you think things need changes our welcome to do so. Since blizzard requirements are 1/4mi visibility and winds greater then 35mph than that would even contest the naming of some articles. For example the "2009 North American Christmas Winter Storm" should be considered a blizzard because blizzard conditions and blizzard warnings across the Midwest, while the "3rd North American Blizzard" had no blizzard warnings issued or known blizzard criteria. Just some food for thought. Let me know what you think. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stormchaser89 (talk • contribs) 00:05, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

GA Sweeps Completed!

Thanks to everyone's amazing efforts in February, we have reviewed all of the articles and are now finished with Sweeps! There are still about 30 articles currently on hold, and once those reviews are completed, I will send you a final message about Sweeps process stats including the total number of articles that were passed and failed. If you have one of these open reviews, be sure to update your count when the review is completed so I can compile the stats. You can except to receive your award for reviewing within the next week or two. Although the majority of the editors did not start Sweeps at the beginning in August 2007 (myself included), over 50 editors have all come together to complete a monumental task and improve many articles in the process. I commend you for sticking with this often challenging task and strengthening the integrity of the GA WikiProject as well as the GAs themselves. I invite you to take a break from reviewing (don't want you to burn out!) and then consider returning/starting to review GANs and/or contribute to GAR reviews. With your assistance, we can help bring the backlog down to a manageable level and help inspire more editors to improve articles to higher classes and consider reviewing themselves. Again, thank you for putting up with difficult reviews, unhappy editors, numerous spam messages from me, and taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing!

How can anyone verify that? I am reverting your revert. Think wisely before starting a revert war. "that news article is full of shit; it's pretty much accepted that it was a single tornado."

(Expanding) Blue Circle Phenomenon appearance on NEXRAD weather maps.

To date there are no explanations of this repetitious phenomenon.

This is at least a valid stab at explaining the incidental appearance of expanding blue circles appearing at a distance from radar sites. The comparative analysis to explosive shockwaves may be removed if it will prevent misunderstandings.

I could express the system in greater systematic detail if you wish.

(Expanding) Blue Circle Phenomenon appearance on NEXRAD weather maps...Continued

I agree with the page change to the Radar page and unfortunately, this is original work - my apologies. I'd like to know your thoughts on the phenomenon which I can possibly provide a screen captured image. I believe that the process occurs in relatively calm but saturated air where the heat of vaporization reaches a super critical level forcing the moisture to diffuse outward from the source and those radars that are in Clear Air Mode can pick up on the wave of outflowing moisture.

Great to hear from you so soon,

FPC closure

Hi RoB! Thanks for closing Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/STS-134 launch, we do need the help. A couple minor squabbles:

• Make sure you keep the comment "End of FPs" at Template:Announcements/New featured content, your edit removed it. I have added it back. The comment is used by my FPC-closing script. See below.
• Make sure to increment the FP count at Wikipedia:Featured pictures when promoting, I have done so for your promotion.
• Instead of doing all that work manually, you can use a script I wrote: User:Jujutacular/closeFPC. There are only a few things you still have to do manually, mainly adding the image to the proper sub-page of WP:FP.

May 21-27, 2011 outbreak sequence

Rather than getting into a messy revert, I'll discuss here. The two tornadoes listed at the end are merely a continuation of the previous event rather than a separate outbreak. The front stalled out near the East Coast, creating continued severe weather events, including those two tornadoes. Since it's synoptically the same system, there's no real reason to exclude them.

You must take some time and read through the the tehelka wiki page, especially major stries and tell me if yo can spot even one story incriminating the UPA govt. which has been in power since 2004 and it can be safely assumed (if you bother to open your eyes sometime) has been involved in a far lot more scams,corruption and wrongdoing.As i wrote,in popular paralance referred to as the most corrupt govt this country has ever had (seeing the record of politicians in this country, its no mean feat). I'm no Congress or B.J.P fanbooy ,just a citizen severely disillusioned by the nexus whixh exists betwen the media and the politicians and how the press has been infiltrated and severly diminished. Blaming the poor ethics of the magzine on biased versions and then indulging in semantics over the word vandalism is a cheap and hollow shot.Bit of bland babble. Infact the tehelka page as of now is severely biased and is a self indulging eulogy. As for evidence, unless you are blind or have burried your head in the sand, i think i have provided the link to the debate for the reader to judge and decide on the neutrality of the tehelka jounalists.I paraphrased what happened.There was no personal opinion involved. Your act basically calls into question your prejudice,ability to think neutrally and seperate your own political opinions and whether you are competent enough to responsibly execute your duties.

Question - Mass Updates of Climate Data

Hello...

I posted a request regarding climate data here WikiProject Meteorology. In going through this section, it looks like you've got a meteorological background. I would love your opinion if you get a moment. I committed a newbie faux pas by posting without properly reaching consensus.

Right now, just looking for feedback. If I touch a page, I get plenty of feedback :-). Seems like things are a bit slower in the talk project pages, so thought I'd get more active in asking folks to sound off.

If reaching out is a Wiki faux pas, please chalk it up to not knowing the community. I know weather normals and averages, but I'm still new on Wiki.

Thank you.

Fixing a deleted page

I would like to put a corrected entry for "Mark Daniels." I have gone through the article and have added sources and links to verify the information for the entry. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Mark_Daniels&action=edit&redlink=1 I think the website directed me to talk to you before added similar content back to the page. Can you please help me?

(talk page stalker) Your best bet is probably to create a new article afresh, since the prior version was deleted for failure to assert any credible claim of notability. --Orange Mike | Talk 15:46, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
