Now then mate, would you like to join a "English English" Wiki split campaign? |
|||
I've been on WP for years, and tried in vain years ago to do it. I've since observed a lot of Brits share the antipathy towards Americanese on WP. |
|||
What I noted was that other languages, like Norwegian (Nynorsk & Bokmal) have two WPs; as do others (Dutch, Flemish, Afrikaans...) so there is plenty of precedent. |
|||
How would you feel about forming a "user group" to actively campaign for the split? |
|||
The main focus to begin with would be to spread the word and recruit as many people as possible: a few hundred users should have some weight. |
|||
What do you think? |

Kosovo / sports federations
Hi Bugbear, Could you please take a look at the International Sports Federations bit in the Reaction to Kosovo's Declaration of Independence article. I proposed a change a while ago - people have mostly agreed, but not all. I'm not sure whether the disagreements would rule out an editprotect request or not. Your sage advice required! Many thanks, Bazonka (talk) 19:14, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
- Done, since the objections didn't seem to be directly to your proposal. If there are direct objections, this decision may have to be revisited.
- Cheers - Revolving Bugbear 19:24, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of 1st parallel south
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article 1st parallel south, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
I didn't propose the article, but I did second the proposal. —Latischolartalkcontributions 21:21, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
English Wikipaedia Campaign
Now then mate, would you like to join a "English English" Wiki split campaign? I've been on WP for years, and tried in vain years ago to do it. I've since observed a lot of Brits share the antipathy towards Americanese on WP. What I noted was that other languages, like Norwegian (Nynorsk & Bokmal) have two WPs; as do others (Dutch, Flemish, Afrikaans...) so there is plenty of precedent. How would you feel about forming a "user group" to actively campaign for the split? The main focus to begin with would be to spread the word and recruit as many people as possible: a few hundred users should have some weight. What do you think?
