== My RFA == |

Thank you for my support on my RFA! Although, as you noted, it made "little difference" as to the outcome (unsuccessful), it did make a difference to me - I greatly appreciate the feedback! While I'm probably not going to run again (RFAs drain you a lot), if I do I might have to take you up on your offer to support ;) (haha just kidding). Thank you so much for your time, and I hope to see you around Wikipedia--<small>[[User:Danielfolsom|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">daniel]][[User_talk:Danielfolsom|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">folsom]]</span></span></small> 03:14, 8 September 2008 (UTC) |

== Thanks == |
|||
Hi Aua |
|||
Thanks for the welcome. As you know, I am new to Wikipedia. I am sure that in time, I will get to know more and more of its usage. |
|||
For now, I am still learning. |

== Version 0.7 reviewing == |
|||
Hi Aua, I see that you've signed up for the [[Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Review Team|1.0 review team]]. We need your help right now, because we had around 70 nominations last week! As you probably know, Version 0.7 is coming out soon, mainly based on the [http://toolserver.org/~cbm/release-data/2008-9-13/HTML/ bot selection]. This relieves us of the burden of manually assessing 30,000 articles, but we need the manual system to catch the articles that might "fall through the cracks" - such as a couple of missing provinces needed to complete a set. If you're no longer interested in reviewing, please can you remove your name from the list of reviewers? |
|||
You should consult the [[Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Release Version Criteria|criteria]] and the [[Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Reviewing FAQs|FAQs]], but I would suggest that most manual nominations of B-Class articles or higher are expected to pass, unless they are fairly obscure. You can get a good sense of the importance by looking at the article in the bot's list (check the talk page to find which projects have tagged it); an importance score (excluding quality) of <700 indicates that the article is probably too obscure, unless it is needed to complete a useful set (e.g., all the counties of England). I take the view that if someone who is knowledgeable on the topic spends the time to nominate the article, it is likely to be OK, but just occasionally people try to argue for an obscure or poor-quality article. |
|||
So, are you able to help? Many thanks, [[User:Walkerma|Walkerma]] ([[User talk:Walkerma|talk]]) 05:07, 22 September 2008 (UTC) |

== Bryan Bruce == |
|||
Hi Aua |
|||
I wonder if you can help. Someone left a cleanup tag on the page I wrote about my father Bryan Bruce ( I have the same name). |
|||
Unfortunately I don't know what I have to clean up to get the tag removed. |
|||
Also I mentioned to you some time ago do you think there is a real conflict of interest here given that it's about my father ? Should I have the page removed? The information is true. |
|||
I would appreciate your advice |
|||
Cheers. |

== Notability and Orphan tags on Conduit (Web Site) entry == |
|||
Aua, I was wondering if you could help me to better understand the concepts of "notability" and "orphaned articles" as my [[Conduit (Web site)]] article has been tagged for. To help establish notability, I added multiple third-party references to well known sources who have written about Conduit such a Mike Arrington of TechCrunch.com and Rafe Needleman from CNET.com. I've also referenced articles about Conduit's award achievements that were written by notable tech-industry analyst Josh Bernoff (Forrester) and other credible news sources like Reuters.com and Venturebeat.com. Please reference the article's discussion tab for my response to sources 6 thru 12 as well. |
|||
Are there specific guidelines that can be applied to determine if a third-party reference to an article will or will not add to the article's notability? |
|||
On the topic of orphaned articles, how many pre-existing articles need to point to the a new Wikipedia entry to clear it of an orphaned status? I created three links back to the new article after publishing it and recently added a few more to bring the total up to 8. Is there a recommended process for adding internal links to prevent the orphaned status? |
|||
Thanks very much for any help and advice you can lend. Its very appreciated as we work though this new process. |

== Re Apple page == |
|||
Dear Aua |
|||
I think it was you that put the url of a website of mine in the 'External Links' section of the 'Apple' page. Unfortunately although the url is correct: http://www.nickhirst.org.uk/index.htm it is not possible to click on it to be directed to the site. The site is called 'Cumbria Apple Project' and it is based on a report of a survey of apple trees and orchards in Cumbria UK. Hoping you can fix this. |
|||
Thank you |

== Kosovo Barnstar == |
|||
Hi. I saw that you made a Kosovo barnstar... I was wondering what it takes to get that. I have edited and created many articles about Kosovo, primarily about the municipalities and population in them. Currently I am working on making pages about the new administrative units that have been declared since independence. ([[User:LAz17|LAz17]] ([[User talk:LAz17|talk]]) 01:08, 19 January 2009 (UTC)) |
|||
:Well, the problem is that nobody really goes to the Kosovo wiki project page anymore, so there is nobody around to give that. ([[User:LAz17|LAz17]] ([[User talk:LAz17|talk]]) 06:32, 28 January 2009 (UTC)). |

:Page is complete [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Wiki_Raja/WikiProject_Kosovo here]. Everything from the original page is available on the new one I've created, except for the Kosovo categories list (which is already on the Portal:Kosovo page). Also, an extra tab called ''"Links"'' was created to have the ''Sister links userboxes''. However, it would look a lot better on the Portal:Kosovo page, as well. If you all like it and want me to go ahead and merge the present page with the new one created, please let me know. Regards.

::Hi, I've already posted a message with regards to the new project page [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Kosovo#WikiProject_Kosovo_page_makeover_complete here], and shall wait for a week for feedback from the rest of the group. As you recommend, if there is no reply within a week, then I'll go ahead and change the page. Also, if or when the page is changed, perhaps we could work on upgrading the page to look a lot more professional. Regards.
