GA Sweeps July update

Thanks to everyone's dedicated efforts to the GA Sweeps process, a total of 290 articles were swept in June! Last month was our second most successful month in reviewing articles (after May). We are currently over 70% done with Sweeps, with just under 800 articles left to review. With nearly 50 members, that averages out to about 15 articles per person. If each member reviews an article every other day this month (or several!), we'll be completely finished. This may sound difficult, but if everyone completes their reviews, Sweeps would be completed in less than two years when we first started (with only four members!). With the conclusion of Sweeps, each editor could spend more time writing GAs, reviewing at the backlogged GAN, or focusing on other GARs. Again, I want to thank you for using your time to ensure the quality of the older GAs. Feel free to recruit other editors who have reviewed GANs in the past and might be interested in the process. The more editors, the less the workload, and hopefully the faster this will be completed. If you have any questions about reviews or the process let me know and I'll be happy to get back to you. Again, thank you for taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talkcontrib) 17:57, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

History of Florida State University

Hello... I am wondering if you have the time and interest to review the History of Florida State University for GA status. Thanks for any consideration. Sirberus (talk) 11:23, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer, Sirberus. Unfortunately, I'll need to decline because I've made substantial contributions to the parent article. It will be best to nominate the article at GAN. I'll be available should you or the reviewer need another opinion. Cheers, Majoreditor (talk) 22:22, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
Oh, well darn. The remuneration would have been considerable, but I understand. :) You did a great job helping to improve the central piece. I hope you still will consider visiting the pages from time to time and make improvements or at least point out areas that need work. Best regards, Sirberus (talk) 12:40, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Cloudland Canyon State Park

Hi there. I appreciate many people are busy in the real world, however I'm going to give this only until the weekend before I consider failing due to lack of progress. That isn't to say that there's much wrong with the article, just that progress on addressing the points I have raised in the review is rather slow. If the pace of work increases noticeably then I will happily extend the 'on hold' period.

If you have any concerns about this, please let me know on my talk page. Parrot of Doom (talk) 10:53, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

I've noticed you've been doing a fair bit of work, I'll take a look at it later tonight if I can, if not tomorrow. Thanks! Parrot of Doom (talk) 19:21, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
Ok, I'll probably check it out tomorrow for you, that should give you time to sort through things uninterrupted. Hopefully we can have it at GA in a couple of days time. Parrot of Doom (talk) 20:20, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
Passed, congratulations and thanks for your hard work :) Parrot of Doom (talk) 17:54, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

GA Sweeps August update

Thanks to everyone's dedicated efforts to the GA Sweeps process, a total of 215 articles were swept in July! We are currently nearly 80% done with Sweeps, with under 600 articles left to review. With 50 members, that averages out to about 12 articles per person. Once the remaining articles drop to 100, I'll help in reviewing the last articles (I'm currently taking a break). If each member reviews an article every other day this month (or several!), we'll be completely finished. Again, I want to thank you for using your time to ensure the quality of the older GAs. Feel free to recruit other editors who have reviewed GANs in the past and might be interested in the process. The more editors, the less the workload, and hopefully the faster this will be completed. If you have any questions about reviews or the process let me know and I'll be happy to get back to you. Again, thank you for taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talkcontrib) 19:31, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Good to see you around

Just to say, I'm always glad to see you around at GAR. Geometry guy 02:31, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, always glad to help GAR. Majoreditor (talk) 00:26, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
There are several editors who really understand what GA is for and what it isn't for, in my view, and you are one of them. Keep up the good work! Geometry guy 21:09, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Mention of "Romania" in the lead of the Eastern Roman/Byzantine Empire aritcle

The following book published by the "Cambridge University Press", claims that "Romania" represented a "represented a primary identification", the following books also explicitly claim that "Romania" was used often (and there were many other sources shown on the talk page, which support its mention). And that statement was actually added nearly two years ago by User:ΚΕΚΡΩΨ, so it was there for a considerable period of time. Please, reconsider about removing it. Cody7777777 (talk) 00:09, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I'll follow up with comments on the talk page. Cheers, Majoreditor (talk) 01:32, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

A question about mops

Hello Majoreditor! I'm not sure if we've ever interacted before, though I do remember you as an early supporter on my RfA back in 2007. I often see you at RfA, in fact, making thoughtful comments, and your user page and talk page shine with commendations and thank yous. I took a look into your editing stats and you seem to have been a consistent contributor since you first started here at the end of 2006, which is very impressive. So, I thought I'd drop you a line to ask: have you considering running for adminship yourself? You seem to have most of the qualifications, and I'd be very interested in discussing a potential nomination for you, if you like. So drop me a line back, or reply here, if you have a spare moment. Thanks for your time, GlassCobra 16:57, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

I completely understand that you have other commitments, of course, and please do contact me whenever you like, be it for a nomination or if you need admin help. Looking forward to hearing from you again! GlassCobra 23:51, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Vote Re CC origins and historians differing POV's

Hello Majoreditor, sorry to bother you but we are having a vote on the Catholic Church page regarding whether or not to include the dispute among historians regarding the Church origins. Can you please come an give us your vote so we can come to consensus? Vote is taking place here Thanks! NancyHeise talk 01:28, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

invitation

Can you please come here and discuss. Thanks. NancyHeise talk 06:03, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the invitation. It appears that you and Richard are making progress toward text which will be acceptable to most editors. I'll monitor and drop in later on. For the moment I recommend using high-quality sources, ie those from respected academic historians, particularly historians of church history and ancient Roman history. Majoreditor (talk) 13:35, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Did I forget to thank you? ..

Majoreditor ,Thank you for participating in my RfA, which passed nearly unanimously with 174 in support, 2 in opposition and 1 neutral votes. Special thanks goes to RegentsPark, Samir and John Carter for their kind nomination and support. I am truly honored by the trust and confidence that the community has placed in me. I thank you for your kind inputs and I will be sincerely looking at the reasons that people opposed me so I can improve in those areas ( including my english ;) ). If you ever need anything please feel free to ask me and I would be happy to help you :). Have a great day ! -- Tinu Cherian - 06:02, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Church infobox

Hello. I've reinstated the infobox on Catholic Church since infoboxes are essential items in transmitting concise, standardized information about an article. If there are some controversial fields, as you have asserted, let's just omit those fields until a consensus can be established on the talk page; but the infobox should remain. Thank you for your consideration. —Eustress talk 16:54, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

The article already has a useful template. Additional boxes should be discussed on the talk page before adding them. Majoreditor (talk) 17:02, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
The information conveyed in the current template is already covered in {{Catholicism}} at the bottom of the page. There is currently no infobox on the page that summarizes major church facts. —Eustress talk 18:24, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
OK, let's discuss on the article's talk page. I think that most editors are fine with the concept of an infobox, but it will be best to work out the particulars before deplaying it in article mainspace. Cheers, Majoreditor (talk) 18:35, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Possible vandalism to "Holy Synod of the Coptic Orthodox Church" article

I have been asked by User:Orthopraxia to do something about User:71.195.186.130 who may be vandalising Holy Synod of the Coptic Orthodox Church, but I don't feel have enough knowledge of the area to be sure that this is vandalism. Could you have a look at the IP's edits and see if any action needs to be taken. Thank you Grim23 01:09, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

GA Sweeps update

Thanks to everyone's efforts to the GA Sweeps process, we are currently over 90% done with only 226 articles remain to be swept! As always, I want to thank you for using your time to ensure the quality of the older GAs. With over 50 members participating in Sweeps, that averages out to about 4 articles per person! If each member reviews an article once a week this month (or several!), we'll be completely finished. At that point, awards will be handed out to reviewers. As an added incentive, if we complete over 100 articles reviewed this month, I will donate $100 to Wikipedia Forever on behalf of all GA Sweeps participants. I hope that this incentive will help to increase our motivation for completing Sweeps while supporting Wikipedia in the process. If you have any questions about reviews or Sweeps let me know and I'll be happy to get back to you. Again, thank you for taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talkcontrib) 00:10, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

February GA Sweeps update

Progress as of January 2010

Thanks to everyone's efforts to the GA Sweeps process, we are currently over 95% done with around 130 articles left to be swept! Currently there are over 50 members participating in Sweeps, that averages out to about 3 articles per person! If each member reviews an article once a week this month (or several!), we'll be completely finished. At that point, awards will be handed out to reviewers. Per my message last month, although we did not review 100 articles last month, I still made a donation of $90 (we had 90 reviews completed/initiated) to Wikipedia Forever on behalf of all GA Sweeps reviewers. I would like to thank everyone's efforts for last month, and ask for additional effort this month so we can be finished. I know you have to be sick of seeing these updates (as well as Sweeps itself) by now, so please do consider reviewing a few articles if you haven't reviewed in a while. If you have any questions about reviews or Sweeps let me know and I'll be happy to get back to you. Again, thank you for taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talkcontrib) 02:36, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Basilica of St. Louis, King of France

Hello,
You conducted a very welcome GA review of the article Basilica of St. Louis, King of France several months ago. Although this GA nomination failed, I had a few questions/thoughts about your review. In your review, you stated that it "doesn't speak to the current congregation, parish activities and the vibrant cathedral school," and you suggested to "expand the article to include all the major aspects of the cathedral community." The trouble is, the current congregation and parish activities are relatively non-existent. Because the church is non-territorial, it does not have much of an active official congregation. Nor does it have a "vibrant cathedral school", or any school for that matter (I'm guessing the statement in the review was referring to the Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis, which does have a cathedral school). Per your suggestions, I recently added a bit to the lead to better reflect the article, and I added information to substantiate the current nature of the church as primarily a tourist/wedding destination. As a courtesy, could you take a look at it again and let me know if there's something I'm missing about this church? Thanks a bunch, poroubalous (talk) 00:59, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

I'm happy to take another look at the article. Cheers, Majoreditor (talk) 04:00, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

GA Sweeps Completed!

Thanks to everyone's amazing efforts in February, we have reviewed all of the articles and are now finished with Sweeps! There are still about 30 articles currently on hold, and once those reviews are completed, I will send you a final message about Sweeps process stats including the total number of articles that were passed and failed. If you have one of these open reviews, be sure to update your count when the review is completed so I can compile the stats. You can except to receive your award for reviewing within the next week or two. Although the majority of the editors did not start Sweeps at the beginning in August 2007 (myself included), over 50 editors have all come together to complete a monumental task and improve many articles in the process. I commend you for sticking with this often challenging task and strengthening the integrity of the GA WikiProject as well as the GAs themselves. I invite you to take a break from reviewing (don't want you to burn out!) and then consider returning/starting to review GANs and/or contribute to GAR reviews. With your assistance, we can help bring the backlog down to a manageable level and help inspire more editors to improve articles to higher classes and consider reviewing themselves. Again, thank you for putting up with difficult reviews, unhappy editors, numerous spam messages from me, and taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing!

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Karanacs (talk) 17:14, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia Campus Ambassadors wanted in Troy, Alabama

Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you're a member of WikiProject Alabama. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at Troy University, which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester. The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).

I know Alabama is a big state, but if you happen to live near Troy and you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone else from Troy who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 16:30, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Industrial Robot

Please can you take a look at Industrial Robot and the comments in Talk:Industrial_robot. I feel the article meets class B but an argument between an editor (not me) and an assessor got acrimonious and the assessor refused to rate the article as a class B in spite of it meeting all the criteria and the special status of all robot articles. It looks easy enough to just edit the talk page but I don't want to break any rules. Any advice would be welcome. Robotics1 (talk) 14:42, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

It's ok. I've notice that neither Rlsheehan or Wizard101 have been back on Wikipedia since December 2010. Since I have been the only one seriously 'minding' this article for 5 years I will rate it B class myself. Robotics1 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 11:26, 3 June 2011 (UTC).

Black mecca sentence in Atlanta intro

I appreciate you getting involved in this, however at the end of *all* that discussion, it still wound up being a sentence that I would add, and would be completely reverted by the other editor involved.

If I can state the issue as neutrally as possible:

  • I believe that "black mecca" is a fundamental characteristic of the city, without which we are not really describing that basic facts about what makes Atlanta, Atlanta
  • the other editor believes it is inappropriate to make reference to any one racial group in the intro, as this is unfair to other ethnic groups and inappropriate (i.e. race simply should not be mentioned).

I would like to invite you and the other editors involved in the discussion to get involved in the actual content editing since we are getting nowhere with just me and the other editor flip flopping on this. Meanwhile the article is really suffering. Keizers (talk) 17:12, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

Peer review limits changed

This is a notice to all users who currently have at least one open peer review at Wikipedia:Peer review. Because of the large number of peer review requests and relatively low number of reviewers, the backlog of PRs has been at 20 or more almost continually for several months. The backlog is for PR requests which have gone at least four days without comments, and some of these have gone two weeks or longer waiting for a review.

While we have been able to eventually review all PRs that remain on the backlog, something had to change. As a result of the discussion here, the consensus was that all users are now limited to one (1) open peer review request.

If you already have more than one open PR, that is OK in this transition period, but you cannot open any more until all your active PR requests have been closed. If you would like someone to close a PR for you, please ask at Wikipedia talk:Peer review.

Hi, I have seen your username on the GA reviewer volunteer page. I made an article named Mama Luigi, it's about an episode of the animated series Super Mario World. I hope you could come and review the article. Thanks! 987li (talk) 13:36, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

A little help...

Hello. I've nominated Ricardo Arjona as a good article, and i need help to get it reviewed, just to improve it. So, if you're interested in giving me a hand on this, I'll really appreciate it.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:FaceofGodBook.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:FaceofGodBook.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. J Milburn (talk) 14:00, 27 May 2012 (UTC)

Eastern Orthodox Church

I agree with your revert and would support you in any talk page discussion about it. This editor has added similar material to Icon, Iconoclasm, Eastern Christianity, Council of Hieria, and Second Council of Nicaea so we might need to oppose him more strongly on multiple fronts.

WikiProject Good articles (Participant Clean-Up)

Hello, you are receiving this message because you are currently a participant of WikiProject Good articles. Since the creation of the WikiProject, over 200 user's have joined to help review good article nominations and contribute to other sections of the WikiProject. Over the years, several of these users have stopped reviewing articles and/or have become inactive with the project but are still listed as participates. In order to improve communications with other participants and get newsletters sent out faster (newsletters will begin to be sent out monthly starting in October) all participants that are no longer active with the WikiProject will be removed from the participants list.

If you are still interested in being a participant for this WikiProject, please sign your user name here and please help review some articles so we can reduce the size of the backlog. If you are no longer interested, you do not need to sign your name anywhere and your name will be removed from the participants list after the deadline. Remember that even if you are not interested at this time, you can always re-add your name to the list whenever you want. The deadline to sign your name on the page above will be November 1, 2012. Thank-you. 13:29, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

Update for: WikiProject Good articles (Participant Clean-Up)

Sorry for having to send out a second message but a user has brought to my attention that a point mentioned in the first message should be clarified. If user's don't sign on this page, they will be moved to an "Inactive Participants" list rather then be being removed from the entire WikiProject. Sorry for any confusion.--Dom497 (talk)15:19, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
