I had created a redirect [[Chitrita Banerji]] to [[Chitrita Banerji Divakaruni]]
under a misimpression: but [[Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni]], and [[Chitrita Banerji]] (whose page I just created) are completely different authors. After realizing this, I couldn't delete the page and left the redirect hanging hoping they would get deleted automatically. But you too had the misconception and completed the redirect. Hence pls speedy-delete [[Chitrita Banerji Divakaruni]] (redirect). [[User:Mukerjee|mukerjee]] ([[User talk:Mukerjee|talk]]) 01:27, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

WP:YORKS is a leading local British WikiProject in terms of the total number of articles supported (up from 6113 last month to 6344 on May 30th). We have recently overtaken WP:LONDON which has 6283 articles. WP:GM has the lead in FAs at 38 out of a total number of 1850 articles. In the area of GAs WP:YORKS at 42 is just behind WP:GM with 44.
The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.
To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article status

Browsers
According to the article Usage share of web browsers the percentage of people using the Mozilla Firefox browser has increased steadily since 2004 and it now stands at 22.56%. The percentage of Wikipedia editors using Firefox is probably considerably higher because the Firefox browser has a number of advantages for editors. Not least of these is the add-on that lets you right click on a web page to get a Cite Web pop up on the menu. WPCITE allows you easily to create a citation template. This makes the laborious task of filling in web citation templates (almost) a thing of the past.
Another advantage of Firefox is the ability to use wikiEd which is a full-featured Wikipedia-integrated text editor that adds enhanced text processing functions to edit pages. And there is a spell checker Currently, wikEd works under Firefox, SeaMonkey, Safari, and Google Chrome, but not under Internet Explorer and Opera.
Mention of these other browsers reminds me that not all browsers render pages in the same way. What appears to be a beautiful layout in one browser can be rendered as a tangled mess of text and images by another. As most browsers can be downloaded for free, it is worth having several on your computer just to check the appearance of articles. Bear in mind that many people who use Wikipedia just for reference will have only Internet Explorer, and possibly quite an old version, so some of the latest "bells and whistles" may not work for them.
My apologies to old hands who already know all this, but to new users it really is worthwhile looking into the possibilities of different browsers on Wikipedia.

The project is subscribed to a clean-up listing which lists articles tagged with various clean-up tags that need attention. The listing is refreshed by a bot on a regular basis. The latest listing was created on March 9th.
Monitor Use the watchlist to keep an eye on changes to the project's articles so that vandalism and spamming can be removed as quickly as possible.
Infoboxes Many of our articles would benefit from the addition of an appropriate infobox.
As of 30 May, 2009, we have assessed 100% of all articles with a project banner.
(Some new and additional article talk pages may still require a banner however)
Thanks
References Please remember that the list of stubs needing expansion is always in need of attention. Please take a look and see if you can help. One small edit, such as adding a reference section and reference, to an article each session would make a big difference.
Moves Please be careful when performing articles moves and ensure that you also move all the talk sub-pages and update any image fair use rational. Otherwise the archives, to-do lists, assessment comments and GA reviews get lost and the image may be deleted as it has an incorrect FUR.

Yes, that's it! That helps alot. Should "shrew-mole" be shrew-mole (Neurotrichus) so that the hyphanated search could be sent to disambig also?
Then, if your interested, there's a problem with mole shrew! It's very confusing, but a shrew mole is a Talpidae mole that looks like a shrew, and mole shrew are two kinds of shrews, one group Chinese and the other African, that are shrews that look like moles. I've been trying to sort this out but I need your wiki-skills. If those suggestions don't work, I have some other ideas.
Well, I guess that there is no way to get all the searches to go to the disambig unless we rename the Neurotrichus article shrew mole (Neurotrichus) or something. Is there? How else could we get all searches to go to disambig? I want to do it with the mole-shews, too. All should go to disambig. Thanks for your help, YOU DA MAN!

By the way, the rest of the world calls Neurotrichus "American Shrew Mole" but because the Uber reference that trumps all call it only Shrew Mole, the taxonomy fascists wouldn't let me rename it that. Chrisrus (talk) 13:30, 27 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article looks in really good shape, you've done a good job. I think you should put it forward for GA as it is now. Maybe the lead could be expanded a little, but other than that it will be just tweaks here and there I reckon, certainly nothing that would quick fail the review. I'll let you know if I spot anything else, or apply the edits myself if they're minor. Cheers. --Jameboy (talk) 22:18, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
