Jumpaclass
[edit]This is an invitation to use WP:BAY's Jumpaclass option for improving articles. If you're working on any Bay Area-related stub, start, or B-class articles, simply add their names to the list, and if any of the articles improve a class within a week, you'll be recognized for your contributions. If you have any questions about how it works, post on the talk page or on mine. Thanks for reading! — Emiellaiendiay 21:35, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Camp Lazlo episodes
[edit]Aloha. IMO, most notable television series have episode articles, so I don't think there's a need for a merge or deletion, although I'm sure you can find someone who will disagree. What the page(s) do need is categorization. --Viriditas | Talk 10:20, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- I neglected to mention that the stub articles in question should be sorted, possibly with {{Tv-episode-stub}} and some other stub. You may want to bookmark Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types for future reference.--Viriditas | Talk 21:19, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
Template:Voice actor
[edit]Your solution sounds like a good one, however, it will create two external links (the first one being the name of the article) instead of one external and one internal link. This doesn't sound like a problem, and if someone doesn't like it they can easily change it back, and your comment on Template talk:Voice actor provides a record of your decision to make the change which is always a great idea, so it sounds like you're on the right path. As for Wikipedia:Template messages/All, good catch--you're right--there's a lot of templates missing. I've been aware of this for some time, but I haven't done anything about it. It might be best to post a query on Wikipedia talk:Template messages/All. I'm guessing that the article is just too big, discouraging editors from adding to it. --Viriditas | Talk 01:10, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
Millbrae Station
[edit]Hi - thanks for your message on my talk page. I just happened to notice the Millbrae link on the SFO page and thought, hey, isn't there an article on the actual BART station? So I went looking for it, and it does appear in the article List of Bay Area Rapid Transit stations which is linked to in the "See also" section of the main BART article. (I remembered that from a previous edit.) Sometimes finding things in Wikipedia can be very challenging! :-) Also, I'm from the immediate area (lived in Burlingame, went to high school in Millbrae) and keep track of all the local stuff.
I think Wikipedia style is to wikilink the first mention of anything and then leave it plain elsewhere, but like everything else around here it's not set in stone. Best, --MCB 19:58, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
How do I do a subpage?
[edit]SF Bay Area categories
[edit]At first I thought Category:Milpitas was empty (I was looking at the wrong link), but it's got a bunch of appropriate articles in it, so I guess it's legitimate. Most cities are not subcats, but I guess this is a good case.
As for the Peninsula, I guess it could be a subcat of Category:San Francisco Bay Area which is a subcat of Category:California, but I can't think of a really compelling reason for it; any articles could just be in a city or county category or directly in Category:San Francisco Bay Area... Cheers, MCB 01:54, 12 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit]Looks like you solved the problem. --Viriditas 08:39, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

Sources for Flatiron Building (San Francisco)
[edit]Hello, good work on Flatiron Building (San Francisco), and thanks for the contribution. However, you forgot to add any references to the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. What websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to Flatiron Building (San Francisco)? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? Thank you very much. - SimonP 04:33, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
Griffith, Indiana article weirdness
[edit]Hi, I had a look at the article you mentioned on my talk page, and did some editing. I'm not sure if it was vandalism, per se, but it definitely fell under WP:NPOV. I removed some of the obvious things (like "My great great great Grandparents <did whatever>.."), and added a Template:Npov-section tag in the section, so hopefully someone else who knows more about the area can give a more thorough cleaning. If that someone is you, then by all means, go ahead! Cheers! --PeruvianLlama(spit) 19:15, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
User test warnings
[edit]I'm not absolutely positive about this, but I'm at least fairly sure that warnings such as {{test}} belong on users' talk pages, not on their main user page. Thanks for your patroling, in any case! :) —HorsePunchKid→龜 2005-12-10 04:16:58Z
- No problem! I'm not positive about this, but I think that the user doesn't get the handy "new messages" box if the comment isn't on their talk page. My user page was vandalised recently, and I don't recall getting a notice of any kind. (Fortunately some kind editors had fixed it for me anyway!) —HorsePunchKid→龜 2005-12-10 04:21:32Z
Northfield, Vermont
[edit]That is a pretty clear copyright violation, and I've thus reverted the addition of the material. Good work spotting this. - SimonP 00:59, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
D'oh!! - Thanks for cleaning up after me!
[edit]These are from my deleted edits file. All of these are errors on my part made while I was patrolling for vandalism. Because of nice message sent by The HorsePunchKid (whom I have thanked repeatedly) I managed to do only a small amount of damage. A few other people used their valuable time to revert some of my errors and I am grateful to them all, as well.

Alligator Snapping Turtle
[edit]Thanks for the fixes on Alligator Snapping Turtle. Apparently I need a new spellchecker. -Dawson 16:29, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
- Dawson, No problemo. I don't write many articles so spell checking is the least I can do. Thanks for noticing. Schmiteye 20:41, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
Your firendly neighborhood "subst"
[edit]:-) --ZsinjTalk 14:10, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
- Absolutely no fixing necessary. I have a bot that goes around and does that for the people that forget. I just saw your name a few times while ZsinjBot was making its rounds and felt like dropping a friendly reminder, like I've had given to me about 3 times, lol. --ZsinjTalk 13:27, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Film wikiproject tag
[edit]Unless a criteria was created that I missed, I don't believe the Films Wikiproject tage needs to be added to articles where a film is mentioned in passing, otherwise there are probably thousands of articles where this could be done. If there wasn't already an I Spy film article the I'd agree to put one in with TV show article, but there is. Same goes for Mission Impossible - we don't need a Film tag on the TV series article as there are separate articles on the three films. Cheers. 23skidoo 12:17, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
Gypsy Moths
[edit]Thanks for rewriting the Gypsy Moths article, I was meaning to do it but things just kept getting in the way. I have cleaned up a few remaining minor errors that remained. Best, Tex 01:29, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- Tex, my pleasure. One of those movies I saw too long ago and should see again. Thanks for making the tweaks. Schmiteye 01:48, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- D'oh! After the rewrite I forgot to run a spell check! Schmiteye 01:58, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
Mina Crandon
[edit]Thanks for correcting my spelling. User:Kazuba 17 Apr 2006
- No problem. The spell checker does the hard part. :-) Schmiteye 00:05, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
Dazed and confused
[edit]The disambiguation page was originally at Hayward (disambiguation) and I moved it to Hayward. There is rationale in the guidelines for this, as explained on the talk page of Malplaced disambiguation pages.
Now, about the "hatnote" (For other places with the same name, see Hayward (disambiguation)) at Hayward, California. Firstly, it's not needed and in my opinion (and most people except for a few I think) and it should be removed. Someone found their way to Hayward, California from a direct link or a search or the disambiguation page. If they came from the disambiguation page they can use the "Back" button on their browser, no need for the extraneous hatnote.
Using templates for hatnotes: don't feel you are restricted to those crumby templates. You can simply replace the template with text.--Commander Keane 21:19, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
Tran Van Chuong
[edit]Where you the one who wrote that that Tran Van Chong was ambassoder of the united states.That is wrong.
- Nope, it wasn't me. I just corrected the spelling of the word "president" in the Tran Van Chuong article. Schmiteye 03:19, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
Charles Dierkop
[edit]Thanks for expanding the Charles Dierkop article. I do volunteer work at my alma mater Aquinas High School in La Crosse, Wisconsin with the archives and alumni and I had talked to Charlie once or twice, when he was visiting. There are some interesting items about Charlie in the archives. I started the Dierkop article, before, I registered with Wikipedia. Many thanks-RFD 13:55, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
Critical Reading
[edit]Hi,
Although I am sure you meant no harm, there was an edit you made that concerned me. The whole paragraph appears to be strong defamation. Just a heads up to read articles critically and to take a look at Wikipedia:Libel. Thanks, GChriss 23:41, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
- Howdy, just so you know, I merely formatted what was in this article. I didn't add any additional information. I think I did remove one line that seemed out-of-place. Even though I don't particularly care for the topic, I treated it as objectively as I could. Most of my edits are made for spelling, formatting, punctuation, and such. Personally I think the whole article should be deleted. Schmiteye 23:52, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
- My only point is that we should all make a conscientious effort to remove such things on sight. (Please see a related discussion.) Thanks again, GChriss 00:17, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- Excellent point, but frankly I DO NOT read every article that I edit. That is, the level of editing that I do is simply mechanical. I see the need for spacing and I put in spacing. I see a misspelled word and I correct it (within a sentence's context). I do not feel qualified to pass judgement on the content of much of what I edit. The procedures for deletion, copyright protection, blah-blah-blah is stuff I leave for people who are worried about those sort of thing. I know my place in the Wiki-world. I have no desire to be part of any edit war or huge philosophical discussions about how articles should be written or what they should contain. I do some mindless editing that the previous contributors missed. The one thing I noticed is that whenever I touch an article, someone is VERY LIKELY to take a look at it. That is, there are a LOT of people paying attention to "RECENT CHANGES" watching for vandalism and such. I figure if someone objects to the actual content, then it will be dealt with at that time. I often find things that needed to be dealt with long ago. Apparently you stumbled across my edit after three hours. Hurray for the good guys? Schmiteye 00:49, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- As long as I am ranting, how much "critical reading" do I put in when it is loaded with inane information on anime or sleazy X-rated garbage that is created every day? Where does the line get drawn? When do we censor articles? Only when it involves libel? How many one-song bands, incidentally are loaded with grammatical, spelling and standardization errors, should I simply delete as unimportant? You don't want ME making those calls, I can assure you. Schmiteye 00:49, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- I am not trying to be critical of your edits, which I think are valuable. But if a person's name is linked to a snuff film, or you come across something highly defamatory without sources, please at least notify another editor to check into it. I felt like I stumbled into a land mine. Thank you, GChriss 02:36, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- Will do. Sorry for the rant. Schmiteye 02:46, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Anarcho-capitalism
[edit]I'm looking for users how now something about anarcho-capitalism. Anarcho-capitalism is currently under featured article review. Any help in maintaining featured status would be appreciated. -- Vision Thing -- 21:51, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
- Hi, Schmiteye. Just sayin howdy. Glad you're helping with the assault on that article, too. Shannonduck talk 16:10, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks! There were some complaints about lack of copyediting, but I can't see what's wrong, so your input would be really appreciated. -- Vision Thing -- 19:51, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Hmm, well from my experience I thought this was a pretty good article. Usually the articles I copyedit are in pretty bad shape and so anything I do is (usually) an improvement. I will read the article again, but I doubt that I can improve it. Schmiteye 05:14, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks, I really needed an objective view from someone who is not involved in this. Can you post your opinion on FAR? -- Vision Thing -- 18:49, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
- I thought I would wait until editing slowed a bit, I found a few minor nits, and then it got hammered again. I believe an article has to be relatively stable to be a featured article and so I think it fails that test. I've seen a couple of articles like this that are just way too controversial to reach stability. I'm backing away...slowly. Schmiteye 03:31, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Dates on video game pages
[edit]Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer and video games says to use the [[year in video gaming|year]] format and I'm nto seeing anything in the MoS against it. Please don't change these. Topical links are much more useful than the general year. Ace of Sevens 14:46, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- My comments here:
“ | comments | ” |
Schmiteye 16:10, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- On further testing I find that this formatting does NOT break the date functionality. Schmiteye 20:21, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- Sigh, it turns out that date separators (commas) are affected when the year is piped in this way. Schmiteye 05:39, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Redirect bypassation
[edit]Hi, I noticed that you made an edit to bypass a redirect at Perl. However, WP:REDIRECT specifically forbids editing solely to avoid redirects - it introduces needsless verbiage at a net heavier load on the servers. Please bear this in mind when you are pondering circumventing redirects. --Sam Pointon 20:44, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
Pointless cause
[edit]Hello, Thanks for your message. Don't be put off by him. Every now and then a group of editors champion some pointless cause trying to tell other people not to use one editing technique or other. Sooner or later it is always "discovered" that it didn't make any difference whatsoever. In fact issues relating to technical performance are the domain of technical staff not editorial policy.
The only thing that would be 'harmful' is if you fixed [[London, England|London]] automatically and created [[London|London]]. That would be clearly stupid and is the only case I can think of where fixing redirects would be 'bad'. Mrsteviec 07:23, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- It looks like we're not the only ones to find this nonsense a pointless distraction. Let's hope in future he puts his time to better use. Kind regards, Mrsteviec 17:21, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
Welcome!
[edit]Hi, and welcome to the Biography WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of biographies.
A few features that you might find helpful:
- The project has a monthly newsletter; it will normally be delivered as a link, but several other formats are available.
There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:
- Starting some new articles? Our article structure tips outlines some things to include.
- Want to know how good our articles are? The assessment department is working on rating the quality of every biography article in Wikipedia.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask another fellow member, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! plange 23:31, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

RE:Filmography
[edit]When I first started editing articles I borrowed heavily from IMDb, but then I realized that wasn't fair to IMDb (not to mention copyright issues). My feeling is that "Filmographies" should be limited (mostly) to wikilinks to articles that already exist. Lists of movies with dates and character names (and ....) are usually copied directly from IMDb or at least duplicate that effort. Are there any guidelines for the Filmography section? Thanks! Schmiteye 15:20, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry for the delay in responding! I took a wikibreak and then got covered up :-) I think your instincts are correct re:IMDB, plus outside of the basic facts, it's not reliable since they'll include any fact a user submits (rumors, et al). Best place to get any clarification on things like that would be Wikipedia:WikiProject Films --plange 01:24, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Tibetan template
[edit]Hi! Thanks for using the Tibetan language template that I designed. It looks like it worked fine, although I usually like to enclose the result in parentheses. By the way, I have it set up now to where, for almost everything, you can just use the simpler {{bo}} template instead of {{bo-tw}}, etc., etc.—Nat Krause(Talk!) 08:19, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
You have previously edited the Rebbecca Cummings article. The article has been put up for deletion. I would like your unbiased input on the article at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rebecca Cummings.
She may not be the most notable person on Wikipedia but she fits the notability criteria from the Wikipedia guideline Wikipedia:Notability (pornographic actors). Her notability is listed in her article and restated at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rebecca Cummings.
Thanks for your input!--HeartThrobs 21:55, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
Given the privacy discussion about birthdates which led the the privacy requirement in WP:BLP, could I ask you to please refrain from adding that category to biographies of living people? At least until we have final resolution on the appropriateness of the category? This isn't a legal issue but several people feel that it's a moral obligation to keep the exact date of birth (though not the year) out of Wikipedia for most biographies of living people. Thanks. Rossami (talk) 18:25, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
- Will do! Schmiteye 23:15, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
- I have been taking them off for almost all living people whenever I find them. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Rossami (talk) 04:34, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Category:California-related lists
[edit]If you want a list of more articles that can be added to Category:California-related lists, please check Wikipedia:WikiProject California/Lists. BlankVerse 11:06, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
- I don't really like working on categories, so I'm glad to see anyone doing some categorization of some of the California-based articles. ;-)
- On the other hand, I came across an article yesterday that was in Category:Festivals in California. I then looked at the category, which only had about a half-dozen articles in it, so I ended up spending a couple of hours looking for music festivals, film festivals, etc. that were in California to add to the category. BlankVerse 17:44, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
- Usually all I do for categorization is delete 'parent' categories if I see there is also a more specific 'daughter' category.
- For external links, the Wikipedia is not doing a good job of staying on top of the abuse. On the other hand, all that I usually do is deleting single bad links that show up on my watchlist, and take the occasional weed whacker to overflowing External links sections. Surprisingly, I've receieved very few complaints about my link deletions (and even those few complaints are odd ones—such as 'why can't I have a link to my Spanish-language website on a Japanese poet?').

) after the template because it is supposed to be set apart by the box and the color. Just a little note, thanks for all your fine work! Cbrown1023 20:46, 11 December 2006 (UTC)`
- Are you a member of WP:FILMS? Cause it looks like you'd be interested. Yeah, we know about that.

[edit]While I agree with the rest of your edit, I just thought I'd point out that by changing [[United States|USA]] to simply [[USA]] you caused the link to go to a redirect instead of directly to the page for United States.

Article evaluations
[edit]Thanks for your positive feedback on the evaluations. Yes, i think there needs to be more evaluation and more posting of rationales for evaluations. I spend most of my evaluation efforts (about 97 percent of it) on evaluations of articles that I have had no editing involvement. I have evaluated about 800 different articles at this point. I have cut back on this activity after some unnecessarily virulent and unproductive discussions ensued on talk pages. If people want to change ratings i feel they should do so by posting rationales. Some editors seem to enjoy just criticising ratings without constructive edits of their own, (which is fine if the criticism is rational and to the point). In any case i appreciate your encouragement, since I am aware of your strong contributions as an editor, and perhaps this will stimulate me to do more ratings once again. Best regards. Anlace 03:22, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
Jumpaclass
[edit]This is an invitation to use WP:BAY's Jumpaclass option for improving articles. If you're working on any Bay Area-related stub, start, or B-class articles, simply add their names to the list, and if any of the articles improve a class within a week, you'll be recognized for your contributions. If you have any questions about how it works, post on the talk page or on mine. Thanks for reading! — Emiellaiendiay 21:37, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies
[edit]Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of [unassessed articles] tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --Ozgod 22:47, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:EerieIndiana.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:EerieIndiana.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Strangerer (Talk) 21:07, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
DEFAULTSORT
[edit]Hi Schmiteye, I have noticed you have been adding the DEFAULTSORT template to articles recently. Just to let you know that this feature is a magic word and not a template, and the correct construction is {{DEFAULTSORT:Sortkey}} rather than {{DEFAULTSORT|Sortkey}}, using ":" instead of "|". The template was created to prevent confusion and shouldn't be used if possible. Thanks, mattbr 11:16, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
- The functionality that sets the default sort key is a MediaWiki feature and is built into the software, rather than into a template. It is a magic word, like {{PAGENAME}}, and they use ':' rather than '|' when something can be defined, as using '|' will call a template. Because magic words are not as widely understood as templates, when it was first introduced not so long ago people were using '|' because the magic word is constructed almost identically to a template, and people were getting a red link trying to call a template that didn't exist. Template:DEFAULTSORT was created so people didn't see the red link and get confused, and the template just calls the magic word. There's more on this and why the template shouldn't be used on Template talk:DEFAULTSORT.
- Regarding the sorting you have been seeing, I don't know why people would sort like that, especially for a birth category; it might just be someone who is not familiar with the syntax for including categories and confusing it for that used for links. Some categories are sorted differently, but that is rare and would be consistent across most of the pages in the category, and in this case, I think it would be safe to change it. Hope that helps, mattbr 21:52, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Amigos de Santa Cruz Foundation, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit]Hi Schmiteye, I didn't mean to revert your changes, just to restore some of the categories that had been taken out by previous edits. I didn't use popups, so I guess I must have been working from a version before your changes. Sorry about that--I've tried to put your edits back in, let me know if I missed something. --Akhilleus (talk) 02:47, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
Duquesne Dukes Category
[edit]Hey- It's quite possible I used the template incorrectly. I'm not very good at coding things, and that's been the only way I've figured out to make the category lists show up. I don't know any other/better methods, of which there probably are some, so I've just gone with it as a stopgap solution. I figure that if there's a better way to do it, someone will fix it for me! matt91486 17:43, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Sebastian Prooth Article (Re-creation)
[edit]Hello: A few years back you deleted an article about me here on Wikipedia a friend had created about me, granted I was not notable then. SInce then I have become a published author with three book titles to my name. You said to make a note on your Talk page if I needed help (2 years ago) and I was hoping you could still help me out. I know you are not supposed to create your own page. If you could get in contact with me, I'd appreciate it. Thanks. -SebastianProoth 18:22, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Voldi Way
[edit]A tag has been placed on Voldi Way, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- Awadewit | talk 04:49, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

DEFAULTSORT - finding articles
[edit]I noticed you've done a lot of work on adding the DEFAULTSORT magic word to biographical articles. I was wondering if you are working from a list, or just adding it as you go along? Also, do you have a script or AWB-type tool for doing this sort of thing (cleaning up the category pipes at the same time)? I've tried to find a way of identifying all biographical articles without DEFAULTSORT, but have not had any luck so far. The closest I've come is the plans I am helping to make for a bot to read data from articles with {{WPBiography}} on their talk pages, and for the bot to then copy existing DEFAULTSORT data over to the talk page as the listas parameter of WPBiography. That template will (eventually) populate Category:Biography articles without listas parameter, which (if the bot keeps the DEFAULTSORT and listas the same) will effectively be a list of articles lacking DEFAULTSORT. If you have any insights into this, or any tips, please have a look at Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Polbot 3 and User talk:Carcharoth/Polbot3 trial run and the discussion archived here. Thanks. Carcharoth 03:45, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
- Howdy, I have taken some time away from editing and just now saw your message. Basically I find articles without DEFAULTSORT by finding errors in categories. There are several common errors that I find that I "fix" by adding DEFAULTSORT and then cleaning up the cats. That would be great if someone could come up with a better method. I can also tell by looking at a broad stub category. If I find a a name out of order, then I can be sure there is no DEFAULTSORT. If I look at non-stub categories, then it is possible that there was just a syntax error in the cat directive, so I fix those errors. Hope this helps! Schmiteye 03:57, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
- By the way, I see people adding DEFAULTSORT and then doing odd things to the cats like: [Category:1953 births|1953 births] and I do not understand why they would do so a thing. Schmiteye 03:06, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below) We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future. This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page
Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network: Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

Notability of Bridge For Africa
[edit]A tag has been placed on Bridge For Africa requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

Unreferenced BLPs
[edit]Hello Schmiteye! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 420 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
- Crystal Scales - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

The article Robert Foucrault has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Subject does not seem to be notable, article has only around a dozen edits since its creation in February 2007, and was an orphan until it was linked to from the article on the recent crash in San Francisco
While all constructive 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}}
