== Userpage ==

Hello, I just was browsing through the Esperanza pages and I noticed your userpage. Strikingly similar to mine, eh? <tt>:P</tt> Just kidding you, I don't mind. You can change the colors and all if you want, too. It kinda struck me as odd to see my design getting around <tt>:P</tt>.

:Oh no, its really not a problem; I was just amazed to see that some people like my design <tt>:P</tt>. You don't have to change the colors, of course.

== Your [[User:AmiDaniel/VandalProof|VandalProof]] Application ==

Dear Sean,

Thank you for applying for [[User:AmiDaniel/VandalProof|VandalProof!]] ''(VP)''. As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.1 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that that you currently do not have enough mainspace edits, being about 120 short of the accepted minimum. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. ''Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.'' --[[User:Wisden17|Wisd]][[Wikipedia:Esperanza|<font color="green">'''e'''</font>]][[User talk:Wisden17|n17]] 22:21, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

==Trading Spaces program and [[WP:UPH]]==
Hello Sean. I noticed recently on Esperanza's Trading Spaces program that you were listed as a member renovating another's userpage. I am here to tell you that the Trading Spaces program has left Esperanza and has merged into [[WP:UPH|WikiProject User Page Help]]. WikiProject User Page Help is a new WikiProject designed to help Wikipedians with the technical side of Wikipedia, HTML codes, markups, etc. It has been discussed and the Trading Spaces program has been merged into the our new WikiProject. I have also come to invite you to our new project. If you would like to become a member, feel free to add your name to the list of participants. Whether you join or not, you're still free to join the Trading Spaces program. Cheers! — <span style="font-family: Monotype Corsiva; font-size: 11pt">[[User:Moe Epsilon|<font color="CD2626">The King</font>]] [[User talk:Moe Epsilon|<font color="CD2626">of Kings</font>]]</span> 22:16, 20 June 2006 (UTC)


== A short Esperanzial update ==

As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on [[WT:ESP|the ''Esperanza'' talk page]] as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AEsperanza%2FCharter&diff=59977509&oldid=52572171 See what happened]. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace [[User:JoanneB|JoanneB]] and [[User:Pschemp|Pschemp]] and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on [[2006-07-02]] and last until [[2006-07-09]]. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before [[2006-07-02]]. For more details, see [[Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections]].

Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, &mdash;[[user:Celestianpower|Cel]]<font color="green">[[User:Celestianpower/Esperanza|es]]</font>[[User:Celestianpower|tianpower]] <sup>[[user talk:Celestianpower|háblame]]</sup> 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology|Sociology WikiProject]] is [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Participants|conducting a roll call]] (or min-census, if you prefer). More then five years down the road, we have over 50 members, but we don't know how many of them are still active in the sociology area. If you are or want to become once again an active contributor to the sociology content on Wikipedia, please ''move'' your name from the inactive to the active list on our roll call.

In other news, we have reactivated the newsletter :) At least, for this announcement. We also have [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Cleanup listing|a new, automated to do listing]], an active [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Assessment|tag and assess project]] (which has identified about 1,800 sociology articles on Wikipedia, and assessed about 1,3000 of them), and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Sociology#Templates|three new userboxes for your self-identification pleasure]] :) On a final note, I highly recommend watchlisting the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology]] page, so you can be aware of the ongoing discussions.

Hello [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Space|WikiProject Space]] member! A discussion has been started regarding the future of WikiProject Space [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Space/2010 Reorganisation|'''here''']]; any comments you might have would be welcome! There are mainly two competing ideas:

# Centralize all the Space-related WikiProjects, such as Astronomy and Spaceflight, and merge them into WikiProject Space, or
# Separate the Astronomy and Spaceflight "sides" of WikiProject, and remove WikiProject Space.

If you can think of other options, that's great too. Your contribution to the discussion would be much appreciated. Thanks! :)

The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology|Sociology WikiProject]] third newsletter is out!

According to our [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Participants|April mini-census]], we have 15 active members, 6 semi-active ones and 45 inactive. Out of those, 4 active, 3 semi-active and 1 inactive members have added themselves to corresponding categories since the mini-census. The next one is planned, roughly, for sometime next year. The membership list has been kept since 2004.

On that note, nobody has ever studied WikiProjects from the sociological perspective... if you are interesting in researching Wikipedia, see [[Wikipedia:Research]] and [https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wiki-research-l wiki-research-l] listerv.

Moving from research to teaching, did you know that many teachers and instructors are [[Wikipedia:School and university projects|teaching classes with Wikipedia]]? This idea is getting support from the [[Wikimedia Foundation]], and some [[Wikipedia:Ambassadors/Resources|really useful tools]] have been created recently. I have experience with that, having taught several undergad classes, so feel free to ask me questions on that!

And as long as I am talking about professional issues, if any of you is going to any sociological conferences, do post that to our project - perhaps other members are going there too?

In other news: the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Cleanup listing|a automated to do listing]] reported in the April issue went down shortly afterwards, but seems to be on the path to reactivation. We still have an active [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Assessment|tag and assess project]], and comparing the numbers to the April report, we have identified about 350 more sociology-related articles (from 1,800 to 2,150) and assessed about 100 (from 1,300 to 1,400).

We now have a listing of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Popular pages|most popular sociology-related pages]]. It is updated on the 1st of every month, starting with August, and reports which of our sociology-tagged articles are most frequently read. Of course, [[GIGO]] holds true, so after looking at it right now and trying to determine what is our most popular article, my first action was to shake my head and remove [[Criminal Minds]] (which, perhaps not too surprisingly, outranks all sociology articles in period tested). Second item I noticed it this month's [[Industrial Revolution]], beating Criminal Minds, that moved from close to 30th position in August/September, to 9th in October and 2nd in November. If you'd like to discuss this or any other trends, please visit [[WT:SOCIOLOGY]]!

Finally, with the reactivation of Article Alerts, we are getting our own [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Article alerts|here]]. Bookmark that page so you can keep track of sociology related deletion debates, move debates, good and feature article discussions, and more.

Our first task force ([[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Social movements task force]]) was created (1 June 2010).

If you have basic or better graphic skills, our projects needs a dedicated [[WP:BARN|barnstar (award)]] (currently the closest we can get is the [[:Template:The Society Barnstar|Society Barnstar]].

As always, I highly recommend watchlisting the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology]] page, so you can be aware of the ongoing discussions.

In particular, I think notability requirements and assessment guidelines could be added/updated. Please check out the page if you're still interested and move your name to the 2011 active list. Thanks! [[User:Udeezy|Udeezy]] ([[User talk:Udeezy|talk]]) 23:15, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

== Getting Wikimedians to the Olympic Games ==

Hi. I am part of an effort to get Wikimedians access to the 2016 Summer Olympics as accredited reporters and photographers. Part of this effort includes covering the [[2012 Summer Paralympics]]. Two Wikimedians have credentials to attend these games as reporters through Wikimedia Australia. As English Wikipedia does not allow original reporting, this is largely through [[:n:Main Page|Wikinews]] with a project page found at [[:n:Wikinews:Paralympic Games|Wikinews:Paralympic Games]]. If you are interested in helping to get Wikimedians to the next Summer Olympics,I'd encourage you to assist with Wikinews efforts, and also to work on all language 2012 Summer Paralympic Wikipedia articles before, during and after the Games to demonstrate a track record of success. Thank you. --[[User:LauraHale|LauraHale]] ([[User talk:LauraHale|talk]]) 04:20, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

In the near future I hope to start a section where a new user briefly discusses their interests.--<span style="">[[User:Gilderien|Gilderien]] <span style="font-size:70%; vertical-align:sub;">[[User talk:Gilderien|Chat]]&#124;[[Special:Contributions/Gilderien|List of good deeds]]</span></span> 20:59, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

|Hi '''{{ {{{|safesubst:}}}ROOTPAGENAME}}'''! I'm the Wikipedian In Residence at the [[World Digital Library]], a project of the [[Library of Congress]] and [[UNESCO]]. I'm recruiting Wikipedians who are passionate about history & culture to participate in improving Wikipedia using the WDL's vast free online resources. Participants can earn our awesome WDL barnstar and help to disseminate free knowledge from over 100 libraries in 7 different languages. Multilingual editing encouraged!!! But being multilingual is not a necessity to make this project a success. Please sign up to participate [[Wikipedia:GLAM/WDL/Participants|here]]. Thanks for editing Wikipedia and I look forward to working with you! [[User:EdwardsBot|EdwardsBot]] ([[User talk:EdwardsBot|talk]]) 19:14, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

==[[WP:FOOD]] Needs You!==

Hi there '''Sean'''! I've noticed you have yourself listed as a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Food_and_drink/participants|member]] of the [[WP:FOOD|Food and Drink Wikiproject]]. Unfortunately it looks like the project has been slowly sliding into inactivity except for a couple of people. That makes me a sad potato, and nobody likes a sad potato amirite?

If you'd like to turn my frown upside down, can you do two small things?

First off, go [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Food_and_drink/participants|here]] and add {{tl|Tick}} ({{Tick}}) next to your name if you're still part of the project.

Second, go to [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Food and drink#Project direction|the project talkpage]] and participate in a discussion about how to make the project more active, and how to go about making articles in our area of interest a lot better.

You don't want to make me cry, do you? Potatoes have a lot of eyes you know. So come on, join in! :)

== Wiki Loves Pride 2014 ==

Hi Sean. In case you are not aware, there is an upcoming campaign to improve coverage of LGBT-related topics on Wikipedia, culminating with an international edit-a-thon on June 21. See '''[[Wikipedia:Wiki Loves Pride 2014|Wiki Loves Pride 2014]]''' for more information. If you are interested, you might consider creating a page for a major city (or cities!) near you, with a list of LGBT-related articles that need to be created or improved. This would be a tremendous help to Wikipedia and coverage of LGBT culture and history. Thanks for your consideration, and please let me know if you have any questions! --<font color="navy">[[User:Another Believer|Another Believer]]</font> <sub>(<font color="cc6600">[[User talk:Another Believer|Talk]]</font>)</sub> 16:49, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
