Hi! Since you've been identified as an Awesome Wikipedian, I wanted to let you know about the Wikipedia Ambassador Program, and specifically the role of Online Ambassador. We're looking for friendly Wikipedians who are good at reviewing articles and giving feedback to serve as mentors for students who are assigned to write for Wikipedia in their classes.
If that sounds like you and you're interested, I encourage you to take a look at the Online Ambassador guidelines; the "mentorship process" describes roughly what will be expected of mentors during the current term, which started in January and goes through early May. If that's something you want to do, please apply!
You can find instructions for applying at WP:ONLINE. The main things we're looking for in Online Ambassadors are friendliness, regular activity (since mentorship is a commitment that spans several months), and the ability to give detailed, substantive feedback on articles (both short new articles, and longer, more mature ones).
I hope to hear from you soon.-- Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation ( talk) 21:57, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
Hello: I wanted to let you know that I reverted this edit you made to the Paul LePage article. Your edit summary said you were removing the section, but the IP editor who created it had already removed it in one of his/her subsequent edits, and your edit added it back to the article. Not sure what happened, but I wanted to give you a heads-up and let you know why I reverted it. Best, – BMRR ( talk) 17:16, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Wikipedia-The_Missing_Manual_0303.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Chris G Bot ( talk) 03:12, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
John your edits to the Shakespeare authorship question have exactly fulfilled your stated purpose (tighten up the word) and are much appreciated. The article has been criticised as being non-neutral and we've tried to weed that out, but having lived with it so long most of us are too close to it to determine where the last vestiges of bias are.

Hello,
Though we've never collaborated on anything (that I can remember), I've seen you around, and have been impressed by your mental acuity. I have a problem you might be able to help me with.
I'm going conceptually blind staring at the outlines every day. So I'm reaching out to you for help to make sure I haven't developed tunnel vision or that my perception hasn't crystallized.
I was wondering if you wouldn't mind commenting on a model I've been working on for (non-country) outlines to emulate. It's the Outline of chess.
I'm looking for feedback on this design.
The questions I'm most interested in answering are:
"Does it make the subject easier to understand?"
"How?"
"Does it make the subject easier to learn?"
"How?"
"Does it make it easier to find one's way around the subject on Wikipedia?"
"How?"
"Is this the optimal design?"
"If not, what is?"
"Is it overlooking anything important in its approach?"
"If so, what?"
"How can it be improved?"
"What problems does it have?"
"Am I missing anything crucial?"
"Am I asking the right questions?"
And anything else you happen to notice.
I look forward to your reply. The Transhumanist 01:56, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
I'm not sure about the move of the people section to history, since some of those people are still alive. I'll keep it in the new location for now, to stimulate the pros and cons.

stint as Wikipedian in Residence at the National Archives with one last success!
This will be a casual working event in which Wikipedians are getting together to scan interesting documents at the National Archives related to a different theme each day—currently: spaceflight, women's suffrage, Chile, and battleships—for use on Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons. The event is being held on multiple days, and in the evenings and weekend, so that as many locals and out-of-towners from nearby regions1 as possible can come. Please join us! Dominic· t 01:23, 30 December 2011 (UTC) 1 Wikipedians from DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Newark, New York City, and Pittsburgh have been invited. |

The article Scott Kleeb has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

FINE ART EDIT-A-THON & DC MEETUP 26 is December 17! The Edit-a-Thon will cover fine art subjects from the Federal Art Project and the meet up will involve Wikipedians from the area as well as Wiki-loving GLAM professionals. You don't have to attend both to attend one (but we hope you do!) Click the link above and sign up & spread the word! See you there! SarahStierch ( talk) 16:35, 26 November 2011 (UTC) |
You are invited to the
National Archives ExtravaSCANza, taking place every day next week from January 4–7, Wednesday to Saturday, in College Park, Maryland (Washington, DC metro area). Come help me cap off my
stint as Wikipedian in Residence at the National Archives with one last success!
This will be a casual working event in which Wikipedians are getting together to scan interesting documents at the National Archives related to a different theme each day—currently: spaceflight, women's suffrage, Chile, and battleships—for use on Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons. The event is being held on multiple days, and in the evenings and weekend, so that as many locals and out-of-towners from nearby regions1 as possible can come. Please join us! Dominic· t 01:23, 30 December 2011 (UTC) 1 Wikipedians from DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Newark, New York City, and Pittsburgh have been invited. |
