WikiProject Guitarists newsletter

Hey everyone! It's been quite a while since the last newsletter went out but it's time to tune up those guitars, set the amps to 11, and rock out a bit. Or for us old guys, put on the fingerpicks and set the amp to 3. A lot of people have been laboring away at guitar articles and their efforts are to be applauded. If you haven't edited in a while, why not pick an article from Category:Stub-Class guitarist articles and expand it? Or better yet, pick one from the article requests and create it. More tasks can be found on the main project page in the WikiProject Guitarists open tasks box. I went through the member list and moved anyone who hasn't edited a guitar article in two months to the inactive section. If you're getting this newsletter, it means you are still in the active list. See you around --Spike Wilbury ♫ talk 21:47, 18 July 2007 (UTC) |

WikiProject Guitarists newsletter

Hello all! Time for the next installment of the WikiProject Guitarists newsletter. I recently went through and trimmed the member list again to remove inactive participants. I haven't been too active recently because I'm finishing a Master's degree but I'll have some more free time coming up. I will probably spend some time cleaning up equipment articles since many of them read like adverts or contain no useful information. We have a lot of great people working on the project, including professional guitarists and even luthiers. We have the potential to write a lot of great articles. If you are looking for something to do, see the open tasks on the main project page or see the column to the right for specific suggestions. --Spike Wilbury ♫ talk 23:30, 18 December 2007 (UTC) |

WikiProject revisionist
[edit]Here's a tip: if you see something like
[edit] Notes
in the actual editing screen for a page (like here), then it's been vandalized and the guy who did so felt bad, copied the text of the page from the display (not the wiki edit, so all 'references' and wikilinks are lost) and pasted it back in. He actually did so via hitting "edit" from notes, and so the notes themselves were lost. Nobody ever noticed, but since you were the first one to edit it (logged in) after the vandalism (I discuss the progression of the vandalism here, I call it still vandalized because data was lost and then made to look like it wasn't, very clever) then I thought you could use the tip, as you'll likely be editing WikiProject South Park pages in the future. --TIB (talk) 19:36, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I did see that and wondered what it was. However, I was editting on my iPod so I couldn't do much. Thx for the tip though —Preceding unsigned comment added by MaulYoda (talk • contribs) 21:05, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, there's a 'undo' button on the history page that usually works. Guessing your iPod touch? Hopefully the SDK will result in a Wiki editing app ;) --TIB (talk) 04:59, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
Dear WikiProject Video games member,
You are receiving this message because you have either Category:WikiProject Video games members or {{User WPVG}} somewhere in your userspace and you have edited Wikipedia in recent months.
The Video games project has created a member list to provide a clearer picture of its active membership.
All members have currently been placed in the "Inactive" section by default. Please remove your username from the "Inactive" listing and place it under the "Active" listing if you plan on regularly:
- Editing video game-related pages in the Article namespace
- Participating in video game-related discussions in the Project namespace (WT:VG, WP:AfD, WP:GAN, etc.)
Ideally, members are encouraged to do both, but either one meets our criteria of inclusion. Members still listed inactive at the beginning of November 2009 may be removed. You may re-add yourself to the active list at any time. Thank you for your help, and we look forward to working with you.
Hello - You, or someone with your username, has voted in the Global Sysops Vote but you don't have a Unified Login (SUL account). Please could you:
- merge your accounts
- or add a link from your Meta user page to your local user page.
This is necessary to confirm your identity or your vote may not be counted. Thank you --(RT) (talk) 12:44, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for February 5
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Steve McNair, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page AFC (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 00:35, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
