| Hi all, I've boldly updated your project's peer review page (]) by updating the instructions and archiving old reviews. | |||
| == Discussion at ] == | |||
| The new instructions use Misplaced Pages's general peer review process (]) to list peer reviews. Your project's reviews are still able to be listed on your local page too. | |||
| ] You are invited to join the discussion at ], which is within the scope of this WikiProject.  This WikiProject received this message because it currently uses "Current" and/or "Future" class(es). There is a proposal to split these two article "classes" into a new parameter "time", in order to standardise article-rating across Misplaced Pages (]), while also allowing simultaneous usage of quality criteria and time for interest projects. Thanks! <span class="nowrap">—''']'''</span> <sup class="nowrap">(] • {]•]})</sup> 07:17, 2 July 2023 (UTC)<!--Template:WikiProject please see--> | |||
| == Requested move at ] == | |||
| The benefits of this change is that review requests will get seen by a wider audience and are likely to be attended to in a more timely way (many WikiProject peer reviews remain unanswered after years). The Misplaced Pages peer review process is also more maintained than most WikiProjects, and this may help save time for your active members. | |||

| I've done this boldly as it seems your peer review page is pretty inactive and I am working through around 90 such similar peer review pages. Please feel free to discuss below - please ping me ({{tlp|u|2=Tom (LT)}}) in your response. | |||

| ::Thanks for the ping. Anyone can request a peer review of any article at any time and you can go to ] to learn more about that. A GA review is like a "step" in the development of an article where it has to meet certain criteria to get to that point.

| I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to ] and ]s. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the ]. The idea is that it takes something like | |||
| *John Smith "" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14. (<code><nowiki>John Smith "" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.</nowiki></code>) | |||

| It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{tl|cite web}}, {{tl|cite journal}} and {{tl|doi}}. | |||
| The script is mostly based on ], ] and ] and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed. | |||

| == Request review of Absolute Software Corporation edits == | |||
| I work for Absolute Software Corporation, and in the past year I have been trying to gradually improve this article, adhering to Misplaced Pages's own quality standards. I have tried to use a light touch, removing low-quality references, adding new higher-quality references, and removing statements that are poorly referenced, focus on small details that are years out of date, and the like. | |||
| I have hoped and expected that uninvolved Misplaced Pages editors would review my work, but there has been little substantive review to date. I of course appreciate the efforts of Misplaced Pages volunteers, and that there are many articles to work on besides this one. But I hope one or more editors can take a look now that I have proposed (on ]) a replacement for the existing "Products and services" section, which at present has only two footnotes, and which does not accurately express the range of products offered, focusing exclusively on the "Persistence" technology. I proposed a replacement with stronger sourcing on the talk page. | |||
| I also hope to propose changes to the "Partnerships" section, which (appropriately) has a quality banner. It is also thinly sourced, and it is not an accurate reflection of the role partnerships have played in Absolute's business model. | |||
| I hope someone would be willing to review the proposed "Products" section, and consider my proposed changes to the "Partnerships" section when I post them. -] (]) 18:38, 13 October 2022 (UTC) | |||

Discussion at Misplaced Pages:Content assessment
You are invited to join the discussion at Misplaced Pages talk:Content assessment#Proposal: Reclassification of Current & Future-Classes as time parameter, which is within the scope of this WikiProject. This WikiProject received this message because it currently uses "Current" and/or "Future" class(es). There is a proposal to split these two article "classes" into a new parameter "time", in order to standardise article-rating across Misplaced Pages (per RfC), while also allowing simultaneous usage of quality criteria and time for interest projects.

Request for images related to last weekend’s atmospheric river
Hello all,
I have been working on 2024 British Columbia floods and am seeking pictures from the October 18-20 atmospheric river to be uploaded to Commons for inclusion in the article. All pictures are welcome, including flooding and landslides but also general rain pictures.
I created Category:2024 British Columbia floods at Commons for this event and posted a similar request to Misplaced Pages:WikiProject British Columbia as well as one to Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Weather for satellite imagery.
Thank you. DJ Cane (he/him) (Talk) 00:13, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
