Hi Accotink2, thanks for inquiring about the Wikipedia Campus Ambassador role! More details about this role can be found at http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Campus_Ambassador. Here is also a little bit more information; in a nutshell:
The Campus Ambassadors are crucial components of the Wikipedia Public Policy Initiative. Volunteers in this position will be in charge of training and supporting the participating professors and students on Wikipedia-related skills, such as how to create new articles, how to add images, how the talk pages work, etc. Campus Ambassadors will also help recruit other people on campus to contribute to Wikipedia articles, for example by setting up Wikipedia-related student groups and by organizing "Welcome to Wikipedia" social events. In general they will become known as Wikipedia experts on the university campus (in your case, on the Georgetown University or George Washington University campus). The estimated time commitment for this role is 3 to 5 hours a week, possibly slightly more at the very beginning and very end of the semester. The Wikimedia Foundation will hold a mandatory three-day training for all Campus Ambassadors in August, and will continue to stay in contact with and offer full support for the Campus Ambassadors throughout the academic semester.
If you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador at GWU or Georgetown University, I would like to send you the application form. What email address can I send this to? (Feel free to email me this info if you prefer: alin@wikimedia.org).
Thanks. I look forward to hearing back from you!

Please stop assessing articles, you've made too many mistakes that I'm being forced to revert en-mass your assessments to MILHIST articles. First, WP:MILHIST does not use either C-class nor importance assessments, as you've introduced here. It is customary that article assessment is only done by members of the associated wikiprojects, so please cease assessing for projects that you are not a member of and also please read how each individual project assesses before assessing articles in the future. - MBK 004 02:10, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Hello, Accotink2! We are looking for editors to join the Smithsonian Institution collaboration, an outreach effort which aims to support collaboration such as Wiki-Academies, article writing, and other activities to engage the Smithsonian Institution in Wikipedia. We thought you might be interested, and hope that you will join us. Thanks!!! |
You recently wrote one of the articles that we had identified as in need of creation as part of the Smithsonian Institution collaboration. We hope that you will continue helping us develop that material. Sadads ( talk) 13:23, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

I see that you added a cut and paste of the deletion log of a previous version of Grace Lin at the end of both the article and talkpage. I have deleted both of those since that has no bearing on the subject of the article. If you are trying to make some kind of statement about Tnxman307, you should be aware that the previous version of the article that he deleted consisted of "Still gathering reasherch for article. estimated time 3 days". Cheers! Syrthiss ( talk) 14:48, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
just to clarify what i was saying, i'm not interested in righting anything, i just want to know what the facts are. my concern is based on the two incidents:
and the followup discussion
therefore, i will keep a running total of deletion logs as i encounter them. i'm sure it will be a small number, and most will be ok, however the "wrongfully deleted" will be greater than zero. it's important to include all to gauge the ratio of proper versus improper.

I noticed in a lot of your edits, you cite webpages without additional information such as access date, for someone to retrieve it if it moves on Internet Archive or similar programs. I would suggest trying to fill out Template:Cite web when you make these references that way people can find the information easier in the future. Sadads ( talk) 15:03, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

The Original Barnstar | ||
You're writing articles at a rate that puts me to shame :). As such, I hope you accept this barnstar as a reward for your work. In addition, I've asked an administrator to give you the autopatrolled right, confirming that your articles are excellent enough to not require checking upon creation :). Happy editing!

Excellent work with the expansion! Lugnuts ( talk) 08:50, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
This is a reminder that you're signed up to help with the workshop, per Wikipedia:GLAM/SI/Events. If something has come up, and you can't make it, please take your name off the list. Otherwise, we'll look forward to seeing you.
However, I'm making this request: please don't volunteer to assist the workshop participants from the Smithsonian Institute. Rather, I suggest that you just watch and learn; I expect that there will be plenty of space for everyone in the room.
I request this because, looking at the comments on your user talk page, you've got a lot to learn - not surprising, since you've been editing for less than two months. For example, experienced editors archive older postings on their user talk page, rather than deleting them. You might take a look at WP:TMM to get a sense of how much there is to learn about Wikipedia editing. (Much of that is dated, particularly the screen shots and description of the user interface, but the concepts are all still quite valid.) -- John Broughton (♫♫)
Thanks. I think it is important they are started however short so others can expand. Thankyou for your expansions to Runcorn Priory. I will try to get all the red links started. You and others can expand over a year or so. Am working through, Cornwall and Cumbria now. Starzynka ( talk) 16:36, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

why did you delete anthologies? don't they tend to go to WP:Author 3. "The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." Accotink2 talk 13:47, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
I have re-added the anthology listing under the career section. I would be surprised if anyone would suggest Major is not notable. WP:ANYBIO lists repeated nomination for a significant award as a criteria. Of the criteria Wikipedia:Notability (academics) gives, he clearly meets several including
He is the Editor of the Harvard Review, which is notable in itself, I would say. Best wishes Span ( talk) 16:05, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
You're doing good work. these changes to anthologies are small points, compared to all the great changes you are making across the board. Larissa Szporluk, Nicholas Christopher, and Shu Ting do have their own collections. I would suggest that the anthologies listing could go in their careers section, as with Major Jackson, else it looks as those these poets edited or complied the anthologies. How would that be? Best wishes Span ( talk) 10:28, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks so much for linking "The Art of Fiction" to Ernest Hemingway.

Greetings! Please excuse this intrusion on your talk page, and allow me to invite you to participate in the newly-formed Wikipedia Contribution Team ( WP:CONTRIB for short)! The goal of the team is to attract more and better contributions to the English Wikipedia, as well as to help support the fundraising team in our financial and editing contribution goals. We have lots of stuff to work on, from minor and major page building, to WikiProject outreach, article improvement, donor relations, and more—in fact, part of our mission is to empower team members to make their own projects to support our mission. Some of our projects only take a few minutes to work on, while others can be large, multi-person tasks—whatever your interest level, we're glad to have you.
If this sounds interesting, please visit WP:CONTRIB and sign onto the team. Even if there does not appear to be anything that really speaks out as being work you'd like to do, I'd encourage you to join and follow the project anyway, as the type of work we'll be doing will certainly evolve and change over time. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me, or ask on the team talk page. Regards, ⇒ DanRosenthal Wikipedia Contribution Team 22:20, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

I would like to apologize to Spanglej, Sadads, Binksternet, TJRC, Kumioko. my intent was not to create work but provide a demonstration to MRG, VW. These three concepts, while reasonable alone are together asinine:
VW, i note you are claiming some copyright vios: [11]; [12]; [13]; [14] these seem marginal, I'm sure there are worse among the 10,000 edits; in any event, do those ends justify your means?

The Original Barnstar | ||
You're writing articles at a rate that puts me to shame :). As such, I hope you accept this barnstar as a reward for your work. In addition, I've asked an administrator to give you the autopatrolled right, confirming that your articles are excellent enough to not require checking upon creation :). Happy editing!

Excellent work with the expansion! Lugnuts ( talk) 08:50, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
This is a reminder that you're signed up to help with the workshop, per Wikipedia:GLAM/SI/Events. If something has come up, and you can't make it, please take your name off the list. Otherwise, we'll look forward to seeing you.
However, I'm making this request: please don't volunteer to assist the workshop participants from the Smithsonian Institute. Rather, I suggest that you just watch and learn; I expect that there will be plenty of space for everyone in the room.
I request this because, looking at the comments on your user talk page, you've got a lot to learn - not surprising, since you've been editing for less than two months. For example, experienced editors archive older postings on their user talk page, rather than deleting them. You might take a look at WP:TMM to get a sense of how much there is to learn about Wikipedia editing. (Much of that is dated, particularly the screen shots and description of the user interface, but the concepts are all still quite valid.) -- John Broughton (♫♫)
Thanks. I think it is important they are started however short so others can expand. Thankyou for your expansions to Runcorn Priory. I will try to get all the red links started. You and others can expand over a year or so. Am working through, Cornwall and Cumbria now. Starzynka ( talk) 16:36, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
Hey, one of our SI employees has developed the article Ernest Spybuck, would you mind taking a look at it and helping us solidify the article? Sadads ( talk) 19:16, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

"WikiProject Report" would like to focus on WikiProject Smithsonian Institution for a Signpost article. This is an excellent opportunity to draw attention to your efforts and attract new members to the project. Would you be willing to participate in an interview? If so, here are the questions for the interview. Just add your response below each question and feel free to skip any questions that you don't feel comfortable answering. Also, if you know anyone else who would like to participate in the interview, please share this with them. Have a great day. - Mabeenot ( talk) 23:54, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

why did you delete anthologies? don't they tend to go to WP:Author 3. "The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." Accotink2 talk 13:47, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
I have re-added the anthology listing under the career section. I would be surprised if anyone would suggest Major is not notable. WP:ANYBIO lists repeated nomination for a significant award as a criteria. Of the criteria Wikipedia:Notability (academics) gives, he clearly meets several including
He is the Editor of the Harvard Review, which is notable in itself, I would say. Best wishes Span ( talk) 16:05, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
You're doing good work. these changes to anthologies are small points, compared to all the great changes you are making across the board. Larissa Szporluk, Nicholas Christopher, and Shu Ting do have their own collections. I would suggest that the anthologies listing could go in their careers section, as with Major Jackson, else it looks as those these poets edited or complied the anthologies. How would that be? Best wishes Span ( talk) 10:28, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks so much for linking "The Art of Fiction" to Ernest Hemingway. For some reason I've never been successful in pulling up the Paris Review version online- it's great to read it; I intend to use it in a number of EH articles and probably the Ezra Pound article as well. Just wanted you to know. Truthkeeper88 ( talk) 00:55, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
RE: your comments on my talk page.
I saw the administrative clarification the bullies are pushing for with the badlydrawnjeff case. I had nothing to contribute but personal attacks against these abhorrent people, so I didn't write anything. Okip 04:45, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Greetings! Please excuse this intrusion on your talk page, and allow me to invite you to participate in the newly-formed Wikipedia Contribution Team ( WP:CONTRIB for short)! The goal of the team is to attract more and better contributions to the English Wikipedia, as well as to help support the fundraising team in our financial and editing contribution goals. We have lots of stuff to work on, from minor and major page building, to WikiProject outreach, article improvement, donor relations, and more—in fact, part of our mission is to empower team members to make their own projects to support our mission. Some of our projects only take a few minutes to work on, while others can be large, multi-person tasks—whatever your interest level, we're glad to have you.
If this sounds interesting, please visit WP:CONTRIB and sign onto the team. Even if there does not appear to be anything that really speaks out as being work you'd like to do, I'd encourage you to join and follow the project anyway, as the type of work we'll be doing will certainly evolve and change over time. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me, or ask on the team talk page. Regards, ⇒ DanRosenthal Wikipedia Contribution Team 22:20, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Accotink2. I just wanted to explain that I've reverted your addition of the Paris Review interview to the list of external references, not because there's anything wrong with it, simply because it's already there, a few lines lower down. regards Jimmy Pitt talk 18:47, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
I would like to apologize to Spanglej, Sadads, Binksternet, TJRC, Kumioko. my intent was not to create work but provide a demonstration to MRG, VW. These three concepts, while reasonable alone are together asinine:
VW, i note you are claiming some copyright vios: [11]; [12]; [13]; [14] these seem marginal, I'm sure there are worse among the 10,000 edits; in any event, do those ends justify your means? MRG, i note you deleted Donald D. Engen, but not Cristián Samper, any reason, analysis, or rather admins Prerogative? Accotink2 talk 16:42, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
