== Research into the user pages of Wikipedians: Invitation to participate == |
|||
Greetings, |
|||
My name is John-Paul and I am a student with the University of Alberta specializing in Communications and Technology. |
|||
I would like to include your Wikipedia user page in a study I am doing about how people present themselves online. I am interested in whether people see themselves in different ways, online and offline. One of the things I am looking at is how contributors to Wikipedia present themselves to each other through their user pages. Would you consider letting me include your user page in my study? |
|||
With your consent, I will read and analyze your user page, and ask you five short questions about it that will take about ten to fifteen minutes to answer. I am looking at about twenty user pages belonging to twenty different people. I will be looking at all user pages together, looking for common threads in the way people introduce themselves to other Wikipedians. |
|||
I hope that my research will help answer questions about how people collaborate, work together, and share knowledge. If you are open to participating in this study, please reply to this message, on your User Talk page or on mine. I will provide you with a complete description of my research, which you can use to decide if you want to participate. |
|||
Thank-you, |
|||

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[Shuttle-UM]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Comcast Center]] ([[tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Shuttle-UM|check to confirm]] | [[tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Shuttle-UM|fix with Dab solver]]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small> |

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia: |
|||
*[[:File:Seriesscrewjob.jpg]] |
|||
You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the [[copyright]] status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the ''exact'' source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status. |
|||
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user={{PAGENAMEE}}}} this link]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]] or me at my talk page.

== WikiProject Good Articles Recruitment Centre == |
|||
{|{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Recruitment Centre/Shell|introduction=Hello! Now, some of you might have already received a similar message a little while ago regarding the Recruitment Centre, so if you have, there is no need to read the rest of this. This message is directed to users who have reviewed over 15 Good article nominations and '''are not''' part of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles|WikiProject Good articles]] (the first message I sent out went to only WikiProject members). |
|||
So for those who haven't heard about the Recruitment Centre yet, you may be wondering why there is a Good article icon with a bunch of stars around it (to the right). The answer? WikiProject Good articles will be launching a Recruitment Centre very soon! The centre will allow all users to be taught how to review Good article nominations by experts just like you! However, in order for the Recruitment Centre to open in the first place, we need some volunteers: |
|||
*'''Recruiters:''' The main task of a recruiter is to teach users that have never reviewed a Good article nomination how to review one. To become a recruiter, all you have to do is meet [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Recruitment Centre/Recruiter Central#Becoming a Recruiter|this criteria]]. If we don't get at least 5-10 recruiters to start off with (at the time this message was sent out, 2 recruiters have volunteered), the Recruitment Centre ''will not'' open. If interested, make sure you meet the criteria, read [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Recruitment Centre/Recruiter Central#The Process|the process]] and add your name to the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Recruitment Centre/List of Recruiters|list of recruiters]]. (One of the great things about being a recruiter is that there is no set requirement of what must be taught and when. Instead, all the content found in the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Recruitment Centre/Recruiter Central#The Process|process section]] is a guideline of the main points that should be addressed during a recruitment session...you can also take an entire different approach if you wish!) If you think you will not have the time to recruit any users at this time but are still interested in becoming a recruiter, you can still add your name to the list of recruiters but just fill in the "Status" parameter with "Not Available". |
|||
*'''Co-Director:''' The current Director for the centre is me (Dom497). Another user that would be willing to help with some of the tasks would be helpful. Tasks include making sure recruiters are doing what they should be (teaching!), making sure all recruitments are archived correctly, updating pages as needed, answering any questions, and distributing the feedback form. If interested, please contact [[User:Dom497|me (Dom497)]]. |
|||
*'' '''Nominators, please read this:''' '' If you are not interested in becoming a recruiter, you can still help. In some cases a nominator may have an issue with an "inexperienced" editor (the recruitee) reviewing one of their nominations. To minimize the chances of this happening, if you are fine with a recruitee reviewing one of your nominations under the supervision of the recruiter, please add your name to the list at the bottom of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Recruitment Centre/Recruiter Central#Nominators That Are OK With A Recruitee Reviewing|this page]]. By adding your name to this list, chances are that your nomination will be reviewed more quickly as the recruitee will be asked to choose a nomination from the list of nominators that are OK with them reviewing the article. |
|||
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to [[User talk:Dom497|contact me]]. I look forward to seeing this program bring new reviewers to the Good article community and all the positive things it will bring along. |
|||

== Main Page appearance: SummerSlam (2003) == |
|||
This is a note to let the main editors of [[SummerSlam (2003)]] know that the article will be appearing as [[Wikipedia:Today's featured article|today's featured article]] on September 8, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director {{user|Raul654}} or one of his delegates ({{user|Dabomb87}}, {{user|Gimmetoo}}, and {{user|Bencherlite}}), or start a discussion at [[Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests]]. You can view the TFA blurb at [[Wikipedia:Today's featured article/September 8, 2013]]. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions]]. The blurb as it stands now is below: |

'''[[SummerSlam (2003)]]''' was a [[professional wrestling]] [[pay-per-view]] event produced by [[World Wrestling Entertainment]] (WWE) on August 24, 2003 at the [[US Airways Center|America West Arena]] in [[Phoenix, Arizona]]. It was the 16th annual [[SummerSlam]] event and starred [[List of World Wrestling Entertainment employees|wrestlers]] from the [[WWE Raw|Raw]] and [[WWE Friday Night SmackDown|SmackDown!]] [[WWE Brand Extension|brands]] in nine [[mock combat|professional wrestling matches]]. In the first main event, [[World Heavyweight Championship (WWE)|World Heavyweight Champion]] [[Triple H]] ''(pictured)'' defeated [[Chris Jericho]], [[Bill Goldberg|Goldberg]], [[Kevin Nash]], [[Randy Orton]], and [[Shawn Michaels]] to retain his championship. In the other main match, featuring wrestlers from the SmackDown! brand, defending [[WWE Championship|WWE Champion]] [[Kurt Angle]] defeated challenger [[Brock Lesnar]]. The other main match was a [[Professional wrestling match types#No Holds Barred match|No Holds Barred match]] between wrestlers from the Raw brand, in which [[Glenn Jacobs|Kane]] defeated [[Rob Van Dam]]. The event marked the second time the Elimination Chamber format was used by WWE; the first was at [[Survivor Series (2002)|Survivor Series 2002]]. Including its scripted buildup, SummerSlam (2003) grossed over $715,000 ticket sales from an attendance of 16,113 and received about 415,000 pay-per-view buys, more than the [[SummerSlam (2004)|following year's event]]. This event helped WWE increase its pay-per-view revenue by $6.2 million from the previous year. {{TFAFULL|SummerSlam (2003)}} |

'''[[Istanbul]]''' is the largest city in [[Turkey]] and the country's economic, cultural, and historical heart. With a population of {{nowrap|13.9 million}}, the city is among the [[List of cities proper by population|largest cities in the world]] by population within city limits. Its commercial and historical center lies in Europe, while a third of its population lives across the [[Bosphorus]] in Asia. Founded around 660 BC as [[Byzantium]], it served as the capital of four empires for nearly sixteen centuries following its reestablishment as [[Constantinople]] in {{nowrap|330 AD.}} It was instrumental in the advancement of Christianity during Roman and Byzantine times, before the Ottomans [[fall of Constantinople|conquered the city]] in 1453 and transformed it into an Islamic stronghold ''([[Sultan Ahmed Mosque]] pictured)'' and the seat of the [[Ottoman Caliphate|last caliphate]]. Istanbul's strategic position along the historic [[Silk Road]], rail networks to Europe and the Middle East, and the only sea route between the [[Black Sea]] and the Mediterranean have helped foster an eclectic populace. The city's biggest draw remains its historic center, partially listed as a UNESCO [[World Heritage Site]], but its cultural and entertainment hub can be found across the city's natural harbor, the [[Golden Horn]]. {{TFAFULL|Istanbul}} |
