Question about the Mar-keys/Mar-Keys page

Hi, late last night I stumbled on the "

I also have just now discovered that you noted "this is the right spelling" in the edit History for the original

I concur that the spelling should be Mar-Keys. I'm not sure how to move a page either, but yes, it's nice to find another Memphis music fan! Quinobi 13:48, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I think they took care of it per a request I put up. Glad to know you are ok with all that. I was afraid I'd learn I made a mistake. Thanks for the reply. Bebop 19:14, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)

A suggestion: Unless you are going to expand the

Avro team article sometime soon, you should merge the info into the main Avro article and do a redirect from Avro team to Avro. gK ¿?

Done. Thanks for the suggestion. Quinobi 15:21, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your nice note about the category on the Kentucky Education Reform Act. But I think you gave me too much credit. I just added the Kentucky category. I wanted to take it out of the Personal Life category, but I couldn't figure out how. Maurreen 04:41, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for your interest in our project, I hope you will vote :o). --ShaunMacPherson 10:19, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Voting has officially begun

Hi there. I noticed that you voted before it had officially started, so I just wanted to remind you to review the proposals again if you want- since it counts now. We didn't get a proposal for the tooltips idea, as suggested on the talk page. While I am not sure of why, I think it's most probably because it isn't default for all users, so only a few people will appreciate it. There is another proposal that allows for multiple references per footnote, but only one footnote per sentence. This will reduce clutter. -[[User:Frazzydee|Frazzydee|✍]] 04:57, 7 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Biweekly special article

Dear

After many months, the biweekly special article has been brought back! The article we will be referencing is Titan (moon). Please do your best to help out!

I'm asking all members to verify at least three facts in the article, and I'd really appreciate it if you could try and help with this. We have about 19 members, so if even 3/4 of us try and fulfil this 'dream', that'll be 45 references!

If you need some information on how to use footnotes, take a look at Wikipedia:Footnote3, which has a method of autonumbering footnotes. Unfortunately, they produce brackets around the footnotes, but it seems to be our best alternative until they integrate the footnote feature request code into MediaWiki. You may be interested in voting for the aforementioned feature request.

Cheers,

• WikiProject Time

I don't think this article belongs in the main namespace (looks like a personal essay). Thue | talk 20:25, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Well it is a bit of an essay. Basically I was a little peaved because I want to learn more about wikipedia strategies for representing timelines as in development timelines, histories, and especially maps that relate time to the building of infrastructural things like railroads, canals and communication links. I guess I learned how to get peoples attention. You folks should be more mindful of newcomers' needs. It's extremely difficult to get strait answers around here.Quinobi 13:20, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)

• Miniaturization

You've got a 'disputed' tag on this article (along with a promise to correct it dating back to October of last year). Can you please take a look and see if you can correct it, specify what it is, or remove the tag? I don't know the issue, I'm just trying to close out old disputes. Thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia. Cheers, -Willmcw 08:58, Jun 12, 2005 (UTC)

oops. I forgot all about that one. (I guess it was too small to remember ;) I removed the disputed tag and put it on my watchlist. I'll try to get back to it soon. Quinobi 03:35, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for removing it from the limelight, Radiant. I didn't know it would create such a fuss. Quinobi 7 July 2005 14:23 (UTC)

Hey there Quinobi, thanks for your message on my talk page. Sorry if it's taken me a little while to reply to you, I've been doing a lot of paper reading and working on my project plan (5000 words for a 20,000 word topic), so I though I'd start posting about academic stuff once I'd revamped my research page, which I did today

I've got a lot of ideas regarding your topic 'Is the term community worn out', so i'm going to take a look at Wikidemia now, thanks again for your message, and hope to have more discussion at some point.illWill 7 July 2005 16:44 (UTC)

The paper is looking great! Let me know if I can help. I'm tracking you on Nelson and Levy. Got Ciffolilli pinned to the board though I believe.

I've started on Wikidemia - NotReady-forPrimeTime version and an encyclopedic review of Phantom authority. I hope to get ALL the Wikidemians working on these "objective" self-references that may just be OK to put in the main namespace.

Feel free to scratch on the community scratchpad. It's fer group-thinkin' and brainstormin' see up there ^^^. Quinobi 9 July 2005 07:50 (UTC)

I'm honored that you'd ask, but I really shouldn't accept such a responsibility as I would not be able to give it my full attention now or likely in the near future.

You put a garbage tag around a certain portion of the scope section in WikiProject Bangladesh. I am not sure why this was needed or what it was intended for. Would you mind explaining a bit? -- Urnonav 03:34, 13 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I actually removed some garbage that was in the scope portion left there by the old template. Back before I knew what was going on, I inadvertantly placed irrelevant content on the template rather than on the WikiProject I was creating. The template carried the irrelevant content to a whole range of WikiProjects that used that template. The list ofeffected projects is on

Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject. Sorry for the confusion. Does this explain, OK? I was trying to repair some damage I caused. The WikiProject Bangladesh looks to be coming along well. Quinobi 04:10, 13 July 2005 (UTC)[reply

Thanks for the explanation. Yeah I know how it feels to go switch a whole lot of things back. Thanks for the comments on our projects. Hope we can do some good work for our wiki-community here. -- Urnonav 04:39, 13 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Quinobi, I sincerely appreciate your help. Btw, I really like your initiative to clean up the orphaned Wikiprojects and provide the motivating force to bring them together in a cohesive unit. Keep up the good work =) Triddle 01:13, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for getting your name on the Media project. I see you have a good amount of experience on projects, that's great. I'm having trouble getting the template namespace working correctly on project. I'll explain in another message on the project discussion page, perhaps you can help me there. I'll post more on that porject there. I'm going to look at adding this and another project to the journalism template. The Media Project and the Journalism Project should be added. I'll look at some of the ther things you've been doing, project wize. These Projects, they say, need at least 10 people or more. I have some editors you might might take some interest, at some point. Let's advertise it. Cheers, Calicocat 11:13, 28 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I did a lot of updating on the Media project, take a look. I think I finally am starting to understand about how to create templates. Calicocat 05:36, 29 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Quinobi - thanks for your message, and for your work on my current questionnaire's talk page - I had noticed that yesterday and was going to drop you a note. I've had very poor feedback from it though - have you pointed anyone to it at all? However, the note on my talk page you responded to was actually about a questionnaire for a previous study which you can see here. I got good responses for that one but this was, I think, because I targeted active contributors directly by email rather than simply pointing to it from the Village Pump or the mailing lists, which is what I did for the current one. You'd maybe also be interested in the m:General User Survey and its questionnaire. I'll have another look at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Community, when I'm a little less busy with Wikimania and my dissertation - it's right up my street! Will I see you at Wikimania, by the way? Cormaggio 14:08, 30 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hey no problem. I went on and filled out the questionnaire in my user space at meta and provided a link to it on m:Talk:Research/Wikipedia_as_a_learning_community. I'll try to point more people to the surveys, but I don't get listened to much :(

I wont be going to Frankfurt, but It looks like it will be a load of fun! I'll be on IRC and listening to the audio feed if that comes together and I can pull it in. I try to stay logged in to #wpbootcamp, #wikiproject, #wikipedia, and #wikimania nearly continually as either tractor or quinobi. Drop in if you get a chance.

WikiProject Biography Newsletter 5

The Biography WikiProject Newsletter Volume IV, no. 4 - September 2007
Project News The three-month long Summer Assessment Drive, organized by Psychless, was a huge success! It ran from June 1 – September 1 , and reduced the backlog of unassessed articles from 113,385 to 56,237. In all, over 100,000 articles were assessed. Over 60 people contributed in some way. A barnstar has been created for exceptional work on Wikipedia biographies and for assisting the project. The Biography Barnstar is listed with the other WikiProject awards and can be awarded easily with a template. See the template page for more details. Member News Wallis, Duchess of Windsor; Walter Model; William Bruce; William Goebel; Yagan; Zhou Tong; Æthelbald of Mercia; Æthelbald of Mercia New Members Congratulations to our 225 new members	From the Editors The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below) We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future. This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome.
