Hi! Thank you for subscribing to the WikiProject X Newsletter. For our first issue...
Has WikiProject X changed the world yet? No.
We opened up shop last month and announced our existence to the world. Our first phase is the "research" phase, consisting mostly of reading and listening. We set up our landing page and started collecting stories. So far, 28 stories have been shared about WikiProjects, describing a variety of experiences across numerous WikiProjects. A recurring story involves a WikiProject that starts off strong but has trouble continuing to stay active. Most people describe using WikiProjects as a way to get feedback from other editors. Some quotes:
Of course, these are just anecdotes. While they demonstrate what is possible, they do not necessarily explain what is typical. We will be using this information in conjunction with a quantitative analysis of WikiProjects, as documented on Meta. Particularly, we are interested in the measurement of WikiProject activity as it relates to overall editing in that WikiProject's subject area.
We also have 50 people and projects signed up for pilot testing, which is an excellent start! (An important caveat: one person volunteering a WikiProject does not mean the WikiProject as a whole is interested; just that there is at least one person, which is a start.)
While carrying out our research, we are documenting the problems with WikiProjects and our ideas for making WikiProjects better. Some ideas include better integration of existing tools into WikiProjects, recommendations of WikiProjects for people to join, and improved coordination with Articles for Creation. These are just ideas that may or may not make it to the design phase; we will see. We are also working with WikiProject Council to improve the directory of WikiProjects, with the goal of a reliable, self-updating WikiProject directory. Stay tuned! If you have any ideas, you are welcome to leave a note on our talk page.
That's all for now. Thank you for subscribing!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of brand name snack foods, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Portion. 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.

Hi Northamerica1000. I am Piotr Konieczny ( User:Piotrus), you may know me as an active content creator (see my userpage), but I am also a professional researcher of Wikipedia. Recently I published a paper (downloadable here) on reasons editors participated in Wikipedia's biggest vote to date (January 2012 WP:SOPA). I am now developing a supplementary paper, which analyzes why many editors did not take part in that vote. Which is where you come in :) You are a highly active Wikipedian (41st to be exact), and you were active back during the January 2012 discussion/voting for the SOPA, yet you did not chose to participate in said vote. I'd appreciate it if you could tell me why was that so? For your convenience, I prepared a short survey at meta, which should not take more than a minute of your time. I would dearly appreciate you taking this minute; not only as a Wikipedia researcher but as a fellow content creator and concerned member of the community (I believe your answers may help us eventually improve our policies and thus, the project's governance). PS. If you chose to reply here (on your userpage), please WP:ECHO me. Thank you! -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 16:51, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Well, you undo-ed my edit. In case you hadn't noticed, {{
Non-free use rationale}}
and {{
Non-free use rationale 2}}
are essentially the same thing. The latter is used when the uploader uses the File Upload Wizard. And using the transclusion count, we understand how many non-free images were uploaded through FUW. Well, since you already have one rationale, I don't know why you should put another one, it's redundant. Hope, I could clarify. ;) --

Good morning! (at least it is morning where I am in Southern California). I wanted to first and foremost thank you for your numerous copyedits on pages I had recently worked on. Always great to have someone double check me and clean up my stupid typos. :-p I also wanted to talk with you and get your input about something. I noticed that you added a couple of lists to the US state fire department navigational boxes, such as the List of New York fire departments. I didn't realize that these lists existed so thanks for pointing them out! I'm curious whether you think these lists still serve a purpose. In my opinion these lists should really be deleted because they will never be complete. I was thinking of having them simply redirect to the state category, so for example List of New York fire departments would redirect to Category:Fire departments in New York since this category basically automatically updates.
I am still relatively new and learning the ways of Wikipedia. Thanks for your assistance! Your colleague, -- Zackmann08 ( talk) 16:31, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

NA, I think you're pretty clever and geeky. Can you have a look at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Requests_for_closure#Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion.2FLog.2F2014_November_29? Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2014_November_29#Template:Grey_line looks like no consensus, Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2014_November_29#Template:Infobox_Electoral_reform is a pretty clear delete. Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2014_November_29#Template:Infobox_gunpowder_plotter is tricky, probably no consensus, and God only knows what Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2014_November_29#Template:Quotation results in. I'd ask Plastikspork but they're on the Bahamas, I think, and I'd do some myself but I don't know the process.

Good morning! (at least it is morning where I am in Southern California). I wanted to first and foremost thank you for your numerous copyedits on pages I had recently worked on. Always great to have someone double check me and clean up my stupid typos. :-p I also wanted to talk with you and get your input about something. I noticed that you added a couple of lists to the US state fire department navigational boxes, such as the List of New York fire departments. I didn't realize that these lists existed so thanks for pointing them out! I'm curious whether you think these lists still serve a purpose. In my opinion these lists should really be deleted because they will never be complete. I was thinking of having them simply redirect to the state category, so for example List of New York fire departments would redirect to Category:Fire departments in New York since this category basically automatically updates.
I am still relatively new and learning the ways of Wikipedia. Thanks for your assistance! Your colleague, -- Zackmann08 ( talk) 16:31, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
So I marked this Martin Hristov (footballer, born 1997) as a duplicate article of a article that is up for a afd Hristov Martin. Instead of the user participating in this he just moved all of this and now the AFD is kind of messed up looking now. Not sure what to say. Wgolf ( talk) 23:25, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
Trailer Trash is a US derogatory term for poor people living in
trailers or
caravans. It appears that these trailer trash happen to live on a
trailer park.

NA, I think you're pretty clever and geeky. Can you have a look at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Requests_for_closure#Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion.2FLog.2F2014_November_29? Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2014_November_29#Template:Grey_line looks like no consensus, Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2014_November_29#Template:Infobox_Electoral_reform is a pretty clear delete. Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2014_November_29#Template:Infobox_gunpowder_plotter is tricky, probably no consensus, and God only knows what Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2014_November_29#Template:Quotation results in. I'd ask Plastikspork but they're on the Bahamas, I think, and I'd do some myself but I don't know the process. Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Requests for closure is a bit backlogged and poor Cunard is running out of coffee and carbohydrates, I fear. Drmies ( talk) 17:51, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi Northamerica1000. You added sources to and de-prodded American Sandwich: Great Eats from All 50 States, which is now at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/American Sandwich: Great Eats from All 50 States. Cunard ( talk) 20:40, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
