== Indef block of Helvitica Bold - "vandalism only account"? ==

I noticed after seeing the deletion of revisions in the [[Abigail and Brittany Hensel]] article that you also blocked {{Userblock|Helvitica Bold}} indefinitely, as a "Vandalism-only account"; but from the user's contribution history it appears that only the last one or two contributions could be labeled as such, the rest appear to have been constructive (maybe the account was left logged in somewhere or the password was broken?). An indefinite block with no prior warning to the user seems to be skipping a bit of normal process. [[User:John Darrow|John Darrow]] ([[User talk:John Darrow|talk]]) 06:48, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

WikiProject Biography Summer 2007 Assessment Drive

WikiProject Biography Summer 2007 Assessment Drive!

WikiProject Biography is holding a three month long assessment drive!
The goal of this drive is to eliminate the backlog of unassessed articles. The drive is running from June 1, 2007 – September 1, 2007.

Awards to be won range from delicacies such as the WikiCookie to the great Golden Wiki Award.
There are over 110,000 articles to assess so please visit the drive's page and help out!

This drive was conceived of and organized by Psychless with the help of Ozgod. Regards, Psychless Type words!.

RfC

Just wanted to let you know that I opened an RfC on myself in response to the concerns raised during my RfA over my actions in the Gary Weiss dispute. The RfC is located here and I welcome any comments or questions you may have. CLA 09:32, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

YechielMan's RFA

Thank you for participating in either of my unsuccessful requests for adminship. Although the experience was frustrating, it showed me some mistakes I was making, and I hope to learn from those mistakes.

Please take a few minutes to read User:YechielMan/Other stuff/RFA review and advise me how to proceed. Best regards. YechielMan 22:07, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

July 2007 GAC backlog elimination drive

A new elimination drive of the backlog at Wikipedia:Good article candidates will take place from the month of July through August 12, 2007. There are currently about 130 articles that need to be reviewed right now. If you are interested in helping with the drive, then please visit Wikipedia:Good article candidates backlog elimination drive and record the articles that you have reviewed. Awards will be given based on the number of reviews completed. Since the potential amount of reviewers may significantly increase, please make sure to add :{{GAReview}} underneath the article you are reviewing to ensure that only one person is reviewing each article. Additionally, the GA criteria may have been modified since your last review, so look over the criteria again to help you to determine if a candidate is GA-worthy. If you have any questions about this drive or the review process, leave a message on the drive's talk page. Please help to eradicate the backlog to cut down on the waiting time for articles to be reviewed.

You have received this message either due to your membership with WikiProject: Good Articles and/or your inclusion on the Wikipedia:Good article candidates/List of reviewers. --Nehrams2020 23:34, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Notability of Sconex

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Sconex, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Sconex seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Sconex, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

From the Editors

The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below)

We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future.

This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page

New irc channel

Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network:

#wikipedia-en-bio

Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

GA Sweeps invitation

Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am sending you this message since you are a member of the GA WikiProject. I would like to invite you to consider helping with the GA sweeps process. Sweeps helps to ensure that the oldest GAs still meet the criteria, and improve the quality of GAs overall. Unfortunately, last month only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process when 163 articles were reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.

We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the list, and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

AfD nomination of Chris Sligh and others

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated articles are Chris Sligh, Gina Glocksen, Haley Scarnato, Melissa McGhee, Kevin Covais, Lisa Tucker (singer), Anwar Robinson. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to the relevant discussion pages: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chris Sligh (4th nomination) for Chris Sligh, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gina Glocksen (2nd nomination) for Gina Glocksen, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Haley Scarnato (2nd nomination) for Haley Scarnato, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Melissa McGhee (2nd nomination) for Melissa McGhee, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kevin Covais for Kevin Covais, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lisa Tucker (singer) for Lisa Tucker (singer), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anwar Robinson for Anwar Robinson. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:43, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

MSU Interview

Dear Mike 7,

My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the communityHERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.


So a few things about the interviews:

  • Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
  • Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
  • All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
  • All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
  • The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.


Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your nameHERE instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

Sincerely,

Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.11.206.39 (talk) 03:21, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Happy First Edit Day

Happy First Edit Day, Mike 7, from the Wikipedia Birthday Committee! Have a great day! Armbrust, B.Ed. Let's talkabout my edits? 00:26, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of New Jersey District Key Club International

The article New Jersey District Key Club International has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

While the parent organization (Key Club) is reasonably notable, this particular district of it (one of 30) completely fails the notability criteria for organizations. I have been unable to find any sigificant coverage of it in independent reliable sources

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Love Machine

You recently speedily deleted the article Love Machine (dance troupe). While I realise its notability could be a matter of opinion, I do not believe it met the criteria for speedy deletion as it did include a significant claim to notability, in that they did have a significant, if brief, role in a very well-know British TV programme. PatGallacher (talk) 23:51, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your message. In reviewing the speedy deletion proposal and the article, the primary concern seems to be the lack of assertion of importance for the group. Do you believe you could possibly merge relevant information concerning this group into the article for The Benny Hill Show? I noticed there is no mention to Love Machine on that article, yet there is to the troupe that superseded Love Machine. Michael (talk) 08:04, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

60.242.91.165

With regards to your block of 60.242.91.165 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log), I am not sure what it was for - the personal attack in response for Castlemate (talk · contribs)'s message? (A user is entitled to remove warnings from his talk page; see the user space guidelines.) If there's nothing else, then I'd say that a week's block is rather severe; a warning may have sufficed. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 17:18, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Mike. I looked over the user's contributions again and reduced the block to expire within 24 hours. The personal attack was indeed the reason for the block, and I cited vandalism due to edit summary vandalism, though citing personal attack as the reason would also have sufficed. Thank you again for your message. Michael (talk) 22:52, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Move a copy of a deleted article into a user's userspace?

Hi Mike! I'm writing on behalf of a user contesting a speedy on Duotrope, User:Rick Norwood. He's requested that the article be re-added so he can work on it and find sources. I didn't really find anything when I searched, but I have no problem with a copy of the article being moved into Rick's userspace so he can work on it and look for sources. I didn't know if you could do this or if he had to go through the undeletion request board. Rick wanted it readded to the mainspace, but I think it might be better for it to be added to his userspace so it doesn't get tagged for a speedy, prodded, or put to an AfD before he's finished.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 03:46, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I, and most of the writers I talk to, find Duotrope a valuable resource for writers. It is useful, stable, and has been around for a long time. I am not connected with Duotrope, except that I use it to find markets for the stories I write. It certainly seems noteworthy to me. It is mentioned in 44 other Wikipedia articles and gets 274,000 hits on Google. I'd appreciate a chance to do more work on the article. Rick Norwood (talk) 12:49, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you both for the messages. Rick, I moved the article to your user space at User:Rick Norwood/Duotrope so that you may continue working on it and locating sources. I also referred to the What links here page and was only able to find three pages (including our two talk pages) linking to Duotrope, so I'm not sure if you were looking at a different page, but it does not appear we have a large number of red links for the page. Links to Duotrope articles used as sources don't appear as red links on the pages on which they appear since they're typically not linked to our article space. Also, we can't determine something to be notable based on cross-referencing to other Wikipedia articles; we definitely need external sources. Best of luck as you continue to work on this article!

Indef block of Helvitica Bold - "vandalism only account"?

I noticed after seeing the deletion of revisions in the Abigail and Brittany Hensel article that you also blocked Helvitica Bold (talk · contribs · block log) indefinitely, as a "Vandalism-only account"; but from the user's contribution history it appears that only the last one or two contributions could be labeled as such, the rest appear to have been constructive (maybe the account was left logged in somewhere or the password was broken?). An indefinite block with no prior warning to the user seems to be skipping a bit of normal process. John Darrow (talk) 06:48, 27 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
