Watchlist script

Thanks for the script you just left. I may use that myself. Got a question. Do you know if its possible to make a script that chanegs the default location of a watchlist to say a userpage instead of the Watchlist server? --Kumioko (talk) 16:09, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure I understand your question precisely enough. Do you mean that you'd want to view your watchlist from, say, User:Kumioko/watchlist instead of from Special:Watchlist? It's presumably possible, but it would be a fair amount of work to accomplish well and I don't see the point of that change: your watchlist would still be private to you, and the script would be slower and more resource-intensive than the default watchlist without adding obvious features. {{Nihiltres|talk|edits|⚡}} 16:16, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah that pretty much sums it up. I wanted to be able to setup a script that would automatically remove deleted pages and some other things and I can't do that with the server based watchlist. Thanks though its no big deal. --Kumioko (talk) 17:41, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Trying to go live with article about Noor Photo Agency

Hello Nihiltres, I am trying to create an article about Noor photo agency. Could you, please revise the content on my user page sandbox so I can confidently move it to the main space as an article. I would also like to add a member list to the likes of what is found here and here . Thank you. Ina Desk (talk) 10:38, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wrongfully deleted entry

This is pertaining to the following link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xombies

I am not sure why this entry was deleted since it is a legitimate novel. One can purchase it online. I actually purchased it at a school book fair for my daughter when she was younger.

Would I or someone else need to recreate the page or is the book banned for some reason?

Children's Museum update

Kit Cat Klock

It's time again to share the latest news on the Children's Museum of Indianapolis Wikipedia project! In the last few months we have been busy with our third image donation, which was made up of 150 images that were professionally photographed specifically for this upload. We are asking for volunteers to categorize these images and distribute them into Wikipedia articles. Your help is appreciated! Check them out here.

We have also donated our first video and a second GLAM-Wiki Infographic to Commons. In September we were thrilled to welcomed Jimmy Wales to the museum. Following our successful Edit-a-Thon and Translate-a-Thon in August, translations have continued with the help of the established QRpedia community, (particularly Russian translations thanks to Lvova!) We have begun to analyze our implementation of QRpedia codes and completed an extensive case study. In November we presented at the Museum Computer Network conference about how museums can effectively collaborate with Wikipedia. You can see more details on the Prezi.

In more general news, in addition to serving as the Children's Museum's Wikipedian-in-Residence, it was recently announced that I will be taking on the role of US Cultural Partnerships Coordinator for the Wikimedia Foundation. In this role I will be working to streamline the process of connecting interested US GLAMs with the Wikipedia community. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to let me know. Be sure to sign up for This Month in GLAM to keep up with the latest GLAM-Wiki news from around the world (subscribe).

We have a listing of High Need and Moderate Need requests on the Ways to Help section on the project page. I encourage you to lend a hand if you're able. While the Children's Museum partnership continues to truck along, we still are in desperate need of volunteers to help disperse our images and update and maintain content. Thank you for your time and help. Happy holidays! LoriLee (talk) 16:45, 21 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Editing

I created a page and i can't edit and it says loading editor, takes forever help?

Please give me more information: what was the exact name of the page? In the meantime, I'd suggest clearing your cache, among other basic measures, as a hedge against random errors, but I need more information in order to diagnose the problem or refer you to someone who can. {{Nihiltres|talk|edits|⚡}} 13:25, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Help with a userfication

Hi Nihiltres, I was wondering if you could help me userfy a deleted page that was located at < http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammarly > so that I can view the original page and work on a revision. I'm new to Wikipedia, so I hope this isn't a weird request. Thank you! MooshiePorkFace (talk) 01:05, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

MSU Interview

Dear Nihiltres,

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)
