Ms Cousineau,

I was in your July 2013 KDL "What is Wikipedia" class. Want you to know that I am still actively editing -- from quick corrections of spelling or grammar to adding new sections. Your best piece of advice was to be fearless which took me a while to master. Today I created a new article! Your second best piece of advice was to copy & paste any format/info I wish to “borrow.” Thank you.

When I took the class you sent each of your students a list of helpful Wiki links. Highly recommend that you send future students the below Navigation Charts as includes nearly all the links you shared plus many, many more that are helpful to (new) editors.

IMO the page Wikipedia:A primer for newcomers is still a good initial intro which all should read as homework for week 2.

I did keep the links for ‘Wiki Markup' Cheatsheet, Citing Sources and Help Directory as continue to use them frequently. Note that "The Teahouse" is easy access at the top of the Help navigation chart.

Hi User:Denisebk-

Congratulation on your new article! That is a great achievement. Which article is it? Send me the link, if you have a moment.

I'm excited to read that you've continued on with your Wikipedia editing activities - good for you! I hope you are having a fun time being fearless and interacting with this vibrant community.

I really appreciate that you took the time to contact me, and that you sent along those links. I will certainly use them in the future. Keep up the good work, and keep in touch! Bdcousineau ( talk) 11:31, 22 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Ms Cousineau,

It's Fall & I set my books aside to watch TV. The title of my new article is Project Runway: Threads, a new TV show premiering tomorrow. Most pleased that I successfully created an Infobox. Initially my lists of judges and producers was horizontal so I went on a treasure hunt looking at editing of other articles until I found something that works. "Show Preview" gives me confidence to try different things. I added my article to the main "Project Runway" page & to a couple templates & to "List of..." pages.

Always learning. For this response I read about indentation which I've not yet used.

I have found my biggest pet peeve is that articles contain a zillion links to the same page. One could have a full-time job deleting these zillion [].

Thank you for your recent offer of assistance regarding articles relating to President Gerald Ford. The most relevant article I have created relating to the Ford Administration is on Stanley K. Hathaway who briefly served as Secretary of the Interior in President Ford's Cabinet. Any additional updates you can provide to the Hathaway article would be most appreciated. I may have created other articles related to President Ford, but cannot think of any others off the top of my head, so please free feel to peruse the list on my UserPage to identify any other articles you might be able to contribute to. -- TommyBoy ( talk) 11:11, 18 November 2012 (UTC) reply

Do you have an interest in Gerald Ford?

Then maybe you might have an interest in joining WikiProject Gerald Ford! We're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of the life, career, and presidency of Gerald Ford.

We're very much a new project, so you have the opportunity to help form the design and structure of the WikiProject itself in addition to creating and improving content about Ford. You are more than welcome to join us by adding your username under the "Participants" section of our WikiProject page. Everyone is welcome, and you are free to contribute where and when you like.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask a member, and we'll be happy to help you. Hopefully we'll see you around the WikiProject! Michael Barera ( talk) 23:02, 7 January 2013 (UTC) reply

The edit-a-thon was a blast. Thanks for hosting and providing an excellent selection of pizza and cookies. Here are the images that I captured at the event Dmalicke ( talk) 20:36, 9 February 2013 (UTC) reply

Thanks for joining WikiProject Gerald Ford!

Now that the project has more or less completed the start-up, assessment, and tagging phases, we're really getting going now. If you're interested, there are a few things you can do:

1. There is a new article on the Vladivostok Summit in our new Peer Review section that could use a look-over before it goes live in the main article space.
2. There are a number of documents to be transcribed and proofread on Wikisource: currently, we've only scratched the surface on this one and there is more than plenty for everyone who wants to chip in.

Thank you again for becoming a member of the WikiProject. Take care! Michael Barera ( talk) 02:05, 22 February 2013 (UTC) reply

Hey, so I see that you would be interested on working to organize people in the Midwest into a group. Barring any sort of change in the last year, would you be still willing to do so? I know that Varnent and Keilana are active in outreach and that sort of thing, so it might not be a bad idea to start moving in that direction to become a user group if you wanted to do so. I know that the process is fairly straightforward, and getting the interest of those involved in the meetups wouldn't be hard to do. Also, Varnent is involved in the Affiliations Committee, so he would be able to help you along should you need it. Kevin Rutherford ( talk) 04:46, 24 April 2014 (UTC) reply

Hi - sure thing! I'd be happy to help build a group. I'm not a very active as an editor right now, actually doing more IRL teaching Wikipedia editing classes, and trying to build a real world community in my region. There's an active student group at the UnivMich I loosely know, and I've seen others scattered around my state....I guess I don't really know where to start, and don't want to slog it out alone. Do you have a process in mind? How committed are Keilana and Varnent? and really , what is the advantage to having a group, beyond getting some funds and having a conference (which of course would be fabulous!) Bdcousineau ( talk) 11:34, 24 April 2014 (UTC) reply

You rang? ;) I'm quite committed but also time-limited. Glad to see you're interested! Keilana| ^{Parlez ici} 18:49, 24 April 2014 (UTC) reply

I agree with what Ktr101 suggested, and now commence with a rant of additional thoughts.  :) On the question of my involvement, I would absolutely love to see my area of the USA get a chapter one-day. The basic requirement for a user group is two interested leaders, ideas for activities, and some evidence that there will be others beyond the initial two. Thanks to meta:Wikimedia Midwest page, you already have a place to lay out some ideas for activities, and have evidence there is indeed an interest. What the group is lacking are a few leaders willing to shepherd things along. I am happy to serve as an advisor, similar to what I am doing for Wikimedia LGBT. It presents a conflict of interest for me as a member of the Affiliations Committee to be a contact or leader of a group before our committee. Given my involvement already, I will have to abstain from the AffCom vote, but I prefer for groups I am supporting to be approved without my involvement influencing AffCom's decision. I can set you up as an administrator on the Wikimedia Midwest mailing list - which is basically dormant - if you are interested in getting things moving forward. As to the question about value of user groups, that is a great question. There is some information available at Meta:Wikimedia user groups, but I can share a few highlights/personal favorites. Some of it is the benefit of recognition by a Wikimedia Foundation entity. Having a group approved by AffCom indicates a WMF Board Committee has already screened your group, and will not a requirement for things like funding, certainly adds weight to your requests. Probably the biggest benefit people discuss is use of the Wikimedia trademarks - so permission to use Wikimedia logos on promotional materials, etc. User groups also get their own logo to help with having a "brand" and public identity that is visibly tied to the movement and foundation. It also qualifies the group to attend affiliate meetings, like the conference just held in Berlin, and greater access to WMF resources - like group wiki, recognition in WMF materials, greater access to post on the Wikimedia blog, etc. While funding is not generally a problem, it does make fundraising outside of WMF easier..if that's in the group's plans at some point. Again, some of those things you can get through other means (anyone can request one-time trademark usage), but the user groups are meant to help streamline that process for Wikimedians/Wikipedians interested in a series of organized activities under one group. Given the tech corridors in Chicago and Ann Arbor - plus the already established efforts you indicated (like the Ann Arbor wiki and U of M student group) imply to me that the area is ripe for an organized user group and maybe eventually a chapter with resources to help with efforts in those areas. So the short answer I suppose is that in the technical sense of doing things and the Wikipedia culture, group recognition may not be necessary. However, in the context of the overall Wikimedia movement structure and especially "Meta" or offline work, being a recognized affiliate can make your organizing work easier. We want a large number of successful user groups, and the recognition process is intentionally much easier than it is for chapters and thematic organizations - so I would strongly encourage you to organize a user group if you have any interest in helping getting this project off the ground.  :) Thank you for your work already and in advance for anything you are willing to do to advance a Midwest affiliate. -- Varnent ( talk)^{( COI)} 17:53, 25 April 2014 (UTC) reply

Well, I am certainly the least experienced editor on this thread ... so an advisor is essential, Varnent. That said, I think it's important for the movement to have some sort of loose recognized org structure for legitimacy both here and irl. And for boxen! :)

So, yes, set me up on that mailing list, perhaps now is our time, eh? Let me see if any of the UnivMich students are interested; also I have a friend editor who might also be interested in joining up. Can anyone point me to a "how to make a local Wikimedia chapter" article? Bdcousineau ( talk) 20:16, 25 April 2014 (UTC) reply

Sorry for the delay, as I had a faulty keyboard. In terms of organized structure, feel free to check out our page on Meta, as it contains a basic outline of what New York has done, as well as improvements upon their concept. Either way, I would be happy to help you guys as well, as I think you guys are in a good place to start in the coming months! Kevin Rutherford ( talk) 05:35, 30 April 2014 (UTC) reply

Ok, everyone, sorry, I have been v remiss about responding to the group. When I think about this offline, I get overwhelmed: too much time, not enough experience in Wikipedia, etc. But then I get excited about growing a community... I do know two things: I'm super busy until July 15, and the UofM student group might be dormant since school is out for the summer. Let me ponder some more, or is there a rush? Bdcousineau ( talk) 01:22, 13 June 2014 (UTC) reply

There's no rush on everything, and it might not be a bad idea to do something in either August or early September. I would be willing to chat with you and @ Varnent: on Skype if you wanted to chat more about this offline. Kevin Rutherford ( talk) 00:26, 18 June 2014 (UTC) reply

Hey Bdcousineau: User:Michael Barera said I should reach out to you since you are a librarian. Would you mind taking a look at this new resource page: WP:TWL/I and its associated course page? We are trying to develop a resource that makes it really easy for libraries and academic interns to begin editing Wikipedia. Also, would you be interested in running such an internship as a pilot? Sadads ( talk) 18:38, 12 June 2014 (UTC) reply

Hello User:Sadads! What a great project. I'm certain it will help create lots of editors.

I'm actually not a librarian, even though I work at a GLAM. Sadly, I'm not knowledgeable enough to help with with this. However, I do know a librarian who might like to get involved - I'll have her stop by this page and take a look.

I'd love to be involved in a pilot as you suggest, but could not do it where I work. Perhaps my friend user:Chimp1cards and I could team up. Bdcousineau ( talk) 01:13, 13 June 2014 (UTC) reply
