Image:Shakespeare small.png

Hi there, the image description page for this image states that you'd like the image deleted. However, I noticed that you've added it to Portal:Shakespeare/Intro. Do you still want the image deleted? If so, could you please tag it as {{db|Creator request}}. If not, could you please tag it as {{PD-old}}. Thanks, JYolkowski // talk 15:22, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Message from Sheikh-feras

hello my name is sheikh feras majed ana ararbia. i like the imams and the nabis they are the best ones i can and want to hear about

Hello

Thanks for the welcome. I went to Cirencester College too, '97 to '99. What a small world... Joemahon 13:50, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

I did English Lit, History and French at A-level, probably with some of the same lecturers you've got. Did an English degree after that, so if there's anything that needs looking at on Portal:Shakespeare I'd be happy to muck in. Any stubs or new pages you need working on?

Hello James, thanks for the welcome and your valuable informations.

Hi James, I saw your posting on the talk page. Just add your name to member requests here and you're in. Welcome! --Mmounties 14:33, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your offer to serve as copy editor. Actually, there is a huge number of articles on the de-en translation request page that are all proofreading candidates if the urge to edit ever overcomes you. It's always good to have someone take a look and polish the language. I for one, although at just about native levels in both languages, have a really hard time if I have to keep switching back and forth like we do when translating. So please, feel free to pick any and all of the articles listed here and edit your heart out! They're all at the bottom of the page and more are on the linked (from there) archive page(s). Trust me! We can use all the help we can get.  :) Just please keep in mind when editing: we should respect the writer/translator and not change words that are spelled correctly in English somewhere other than where we live (for example, meter vs. metre, stuff like that). Happy editing!!! --Mmounties 19:12, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Hello

Yeah, I like helping other people out. And I always support the newcomers, and I just started a couple of days ago, so I'm new at it. But its fun. And another thing, is I got those two people to join so they could help me out with some firearm articles, so I decided to create a little introductory "speech" if you will, so they can start to understand the world of Wiki.

ww1 editing problems

I saw the WWI page and in one paragraph, the content was modified so that very sexual content was put into the page.

Ie: Historians and scholars have been sucking a shemale's dick for over half a century...

it goes on. I tried editing the page, but I don't know enough to edit, and whenever I hit any button on the text boxes it just scrolls the text up to the top and doesn't let me edit.

I think it should be fixed up asap=)

Bias

Hello i m a newbie in wiki. How can we understand bias within the articles and be 100% that it is bias. This will help me edit articles where i see a 1-way point of view. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swang (talk • contribs)

Thank you!

Hello Mr James....

I..err..actually don't know what to say....but your site is the planet of history itself!

Actually, i am a long time reader, and i love to read about history or just save whatever information in my head, because i have a very strong memory of almost everything, my father was the one teaching me to read always since i was very little, and now, i can't even sleep without reading a book, but since i finished all of my books, i have your site now, where i spend hours in reading everday.

By the way, i had many articles and previews about football in many magazines in my country.

I am from Bahrain, in the Arabian gulf, but originaly half Persian, half Italian.

My knowledge is focused on Football and Music, my beloved 2 in life, i can write you official- well writin Arabic topics if you want though, due to my experience before as i mentioned by writing to some magazines.

Anyways, forgive me i know that your a very busy guy, but i just wanted to thank you about about this beautiful piece of art, this site.

Siegel / 911 Eyewitness

James

My name is Rick Siegel. Someone posted a page on me because I did a film during the 911 event in NYC. I have become the Zapruder of this century from this. My face is everywhere and fame has been thrust on me. It is not nice, cruel as it were.

The production team created the 911 Eyewitness page and started discaussion as it was suggested for deletion in less than a minute.

You can google 911 eyewitness and get 800000 entries most of which are about this film and me. with rick siegel you will get less, but most about me. I do not need this entry for anything. I want to make sure it is accurate if it is on.

If you would take the time to go to my personal site, the 911 eyewitness site and the Scholars site you will see that this historic film has taken its place. It is not a Loose Change music video tour of other researchers work, it is a 39 minutes of raw footage of the event followed by simple physics and barely any conclusions - we leave that to the viewer. It has already won awards in only 3 months. This spring and summer I am doing radio and TV all over the country. April 10 I do start with the Coast to Coast radio show. Please read the comments already on this and help?

Mabey you can change the page to read Rick Siegel instead of Rick siegel?

Cheers Rick — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ricksiegel (talk • contribs)

WikiProject Elizabethan Theatre

Greetings! I first wanted to say, good work on Portal:Shakespeare! It looks very nice! Since you created it, I thought I would include you in this:

If you haven't noticed, I've been trying to push WikiProject Theatre a bit. Someone on the talk page noted that the project is really very large and I agree. So in order to break up some of the work and concentrate it, I have decided to break up WikiProject Theatre into a series of smaller theatre projects. The first of these is WikiProject Elizbethan theatre. This project, spanning the 84 years between the beginning of Elizabeth I's reign to 1642 when the Puritans closed the theatres, covers such names as Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson. It aims to expand Wikipedia's coverage of the Elizabethan theatre as well as bringing the articles up to a high level of quality (close to or attaining FA status).

This project has not actually been launched as an official project yet, but the 2 main pages have been created on subpages of WikiProject Theatre and can be viewed here. I would like to get some feedback and suggestions before I officially launch the project. Please feel free to become a member of the project if you'd like. Please leave any messages regarding this here and I will watch your page. Thanks! *Exeunt* Ganymead | Dialogue? 20:40, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

im sorry for the problems i was just testing.

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #1

Reach out Reach out is a program aimed at allowing users to bring issues that they have had in Wikipedia to a listening, sympathetic and caring audience: "No one can know how we feel if we do not say. We cannot expect to get understanding if we do not ask for it. No one will dispute that sometimes life's issues are too much for one person. It is fair to say that sometimes Wikipedia's problems fall under the same heading. This is a place where you can bring the bruises that can sometimes be got on this project for attention." Stress Alerts The Stress alerts program aims at identifying users who are stressed, alerting the community of thier stress and works in tandem with the Stressbusters at trying to identify causes of stress and eliminating them. Note from the editor Welcome to this new format of the Esperanza Newsletter, which came about during the last Advisory Council meeting - we hope you like it! The major changes are that each month, right after the Council meeting, this will be sent out and will include two featured programs and a sum up of the meeting. Also, it will be signed by all of the Advisory Council members, not just Celestianpower. Have an Esperanzial end of March, everyone!

The last AC meeting (full log) Future meetings are to be held monthly, not fortnightly as before. Bans and Access level changes (apart from autovoice) in the IRC channel are to be reported at the new log. In the IRC channel, there is going to be only one bot at a time. The charter requires members to have 150 edits and 2 weeks editing. Why this is the case will be clarified. A new Code of Conduct will be drafted by JoanneB and proposed to the Esperanza community. The NPA reform idea is to be dropped officially. Charter ammendments are to be discussed in future, not voted on. The Advisory Council is not going to be proposed to be expanded by the Advisory Council themselves, if others want to propose it, they will listen. Signed...

Subst:

When using template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template.

This includes templates in your own user space. Thanks! ➨ ❝REDVERS❞ 19:01, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

I've corrected it for you. Hope you don't mind! BTW - you're being very indiscriminate in your welcoming. It's nice, but you've welcomed people who are clearly vandalising and/or have offensive usernames. Nothing to stop you, but it's just a bit weird. Are you going from the New Users log? It's better to do it from the New Pages and Recent Changes logs and just welcome those with at least one edit. ➨ ❝REDVERS❞ 20:29, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Well, it's a nice theory (and a nice gesture). But I reckon it'll backfire on you. You'll draw the vandals like magnets to your user and talk pages. You'll get the certifiable and the clueless asking for you to do their homework and where they can post their letter to Tony Blair. You'll also get peeved admins wanting to know why you welcomed someone with a name like Quit blocking people, that's disrespectful and There's no such thing as an inappropriate username who are only here to WP:POINT themselves back out the door. But, as I say, it's up to you. I don't mind what you do... it's just a bit weird, that's all. But nicely so! :o) ➨ ❝REDVERS❞ 20:42, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #2

Barnstar Brigade The Barnstar Brigade is a new program aimed at giving more very deserving yet unappreciated users barnstars. It will officially start on 2006-04-09, but signing up is encouraged before this date: "Here in Wikipedia, there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go un-appreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go un-noticed. Sadly, these editors often leave the project. As Esperanzians, we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. A project the size of Wikipedia has thousands of editors, so there are plenty of people out there who deserve recognition, one just has to find them. The object of this program is not to flood editors with Barnstars, but to seek out people who deserve them, and make them feel appreciated." Stress Alerts The Stress alerts program aims at identifying users who are stressed, alerting the community of thier stress and works in tandem with the Stressbusters at trying to identify causes of stress and eliminating them. Information Welcome to the second issue of the new format Esperanza Newsletter - we hope you still like it! This week, it was delivered diligently by our new dogsbody. MiszaBot (run by Misza13): any execution complaints should go to him. Content comments should be directed at the Esperanza talkpage. Thanks!

The last AC meeting (full log) The next elections: Approval voting as before and, also as before, an previous leadership member can run. Please submit your name for voting in the relevant section of this page. Voting starts on 2006-04-23 and ends on 2006-04-30. There will be three places up for grabs as KnowledgeOfSelf is leaving Wikipedia. Please see the previously linked page for full details. The Code of Conduct is now ready for extensive discussion! Specific comments should go to the Code of Conduct talk page, discussion of having one at all should be directed to the main Esperanza talk page. The current process for accepting proposals for new programs has been deemed fine. All Advisory Council members and the Admin Gen are to endevour to be bold when viewing discussion. If they feel that consensus has been reached, they will act accordingly. A plea from the editor... The propsed programs page is terribly underused! Please leave any comments, good or bad, on the page, to help us determine the membership's thoughts on the ideas there. Signed...

Message from Sbarsky

Thanks for the welcome!

I have a couple of questions, if you don't mind...

1) the other day I made a small edit to the New England Science Fiction Association page:

MCFI is a separate legal entity from NESFA for legal reasons. -->

MCFI is a separate legal entity from NESFA, though there is a large overlap in membership.

Then DragonHawk put back the phrase "for legal reasons". I removed it again, but I don't want get into a flamewar about it. I'm a member (and past officer) of both organizations, I'm not sure who DragonHawk (Benjamin Scott) is, other than a New England science fiction fan. It is true that the two organizations are separate legal entities, but the statement "for legal reasons" is just an urban legend.

How do I authenticate that the phrase doesn't belong on the page?

2) How do I change things so that Massachusetts Convention Fandom, Inc. (MCFI) *is* it's own page?

3) Another link on the page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Once_More%2A_%2AWith_Footnotes goes to a page with two asterisks in the title of the book. It is true that the cover designer added the second asterisk on the dust jack, but there is actually only one asterisk in the title of the book. see http://www.nesfa.org/press/Books/Pratchett.html

How do I fix the title of a wikipedia page?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Sharon Sbarsky

Thanks for the Welcome

Well, thank you for the welcome I am so glad that I finally created an acount.I was happy that I didn't have to pay for anything. It is so good that I can find a website that can give me info and that is totally free that doesn't come around often.I really needed an acpunt because I have so many prjects and the first thing I do is go to wikipedia.co and enter the subject/person and I get it sometimes I don't find it but I still can add new stuff this website that is so cool.

Thankyou, crazyjan.

thanks --Emancipation 00:26, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

more about NESFA

OK. I'll try try one of the talk pages if the article gets changed again.

I don't quite understand about making a separate artivle for MCGI, but I'll give it a try.

Yes, the book is peculiar. It's a Pratchett book. :-) We realize that the book cover has two asterisks, but that was becuase the cover designer did that and there wasn't enough time to correct it before going to press. The NESFA Press web pages refer to the book with one asterisk, and the actual title page of the book has none. See: http://i2.ebayimg.com/02/i/06/3d/59/c8_1_b.JPG for an example.

So either none or one asterisk is correct. Wikipedia is the only place that uses two.

As I said I'm a member of NESFA and part of NESFA Press. The publishers are normally authoratative on the publications, aren't they?

Sharon Sbarsky 01:43, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Once More* With Footnotes

James,

http://lists.nesfa.org/pipermail/press-announce/2004/000003.html

is the online announcement of the books that was published for Noreascon 4. Is this good enough for the verification? Note that it only has one asterisk.

We *are* somewhat flexable. No asterisk at all is OK, or one next two either More or With (as in the Press Release), it's just two asterisks that is wrong.

Sharon Sbarsky 23:59, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Yes! Thank you!

Where exactly did you see me adding nonsense?

Where exactly did you see me adding nonsense?

I was not attempting to underplay or soften anything. I simply attempted to edit these articles in such way as to romove information that can not be considered factual due to lack of evidense or extensive bias of sources used and to add relevant facts to broaden the articles.

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #3

Administrator Coaching The Administrator Coaching program is a program aimed at preparing Wikipedians for Adminship or helping them understand the intricacies of Wikipedia better. Recently, changes have been made to the requirements of coachees. Please review them before requesting this service. This would be something like the Welcoming Committee, but for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. Some might like suggestions about how to learn vandal patrol, or mentoring on taking an article to featured status, or guidance with a proposal they plan to make at the Village Pump, for example. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins. Stressbusters The Stressbusters are a subset of Esperanza aiming to investigate the causes of stress. New eyes on the situation are always welcome! Note from the editor As always, MiszaBot handled this delivery. Thank you! Also, congratulations go to Pschemp, Titoxd and Freakofnurture for being elected in the last elections! An Esperanzial May to all of the readership!

The last AC meeting (full log) Posting logs of the Esperanza IRC channel are explicitly banned anywhere. Violation of this rule results in deletion and a ban from the channel. A disclaimer is going to be added to the Esperanza main page. We are humans and, as such, are imperfect. Various revisions have been made to the Code of Conduct. Please see them, as the proposal is ready to be ratified by the community and enacted. All members will members to have to re-confirm their membership after accepting the Code of Conduct. Referendums are to be held on whether terms of AC members should be lengthened and whether we should abolish votes full stop. Admin Coaching reform is agreed upon. Signed...

re: please read.

HI James,

I work at the University of Vermont! I posted the information so that wikipedia would have that information. As far as we go, our information on our website is entirely for the public. Hence, it is not violating any copyright rules. The image as well was taken at our lab, and hence, supplied. However, if you do not wish to post it, that is fine! thanks, Jan
