Hi. Thanks for the additions and general improvements you made to ] today. I hope you won't mind, but I've added the old text of the ] back in after your new text, and restored the tag. This is because I feel that the section in the Russian WP article is probably good content. I've asked for a new translation of it on the relevant project page, but meanwhile it is possible to get a little from the machine translation, bad as it is. I have kept your own new text, of course, but you may want to note that the Google Books link is to a page not available for preview. Also, one of the {{tl|Convert}}s seems not to have worked.

== Word counts in articles == | |||
Hi, Wikid77. One of the other coordinators noticed that some of the word counts were inaccurate that I used when tallying up after the July drive, so I am gonna take a couple minutes here to explain the record keeping that we use for our drives. The word count is normally derived using a script that you can install on your .js page (it will be your vector.js if you are using the default skin). The script adds a tool to your toolbox that you can use to obtain word counts for the GOCE copy edit drives, and is available at ]. Please install this script and use it to determine word counts for future drives. It does not work well for list-class articles or articles that have a lot of material in point format; for those types of articles you can obtain a word count by copying the article into any word processing software that offers a word count feature, and obtaining the information from that.<p>Please don't include in your drive totals any articles which do not have a {{tp|copyedit}} tag on them when you start (unless they are from the ]). The idea is to reduce the backlog of tagged articles and items from the Requests page, so only those articles count in your drive totals. If you discover an article with a copy edit tag that does not actually require any copy editing, please go ahead and remove the tag, but that article should not count towards your drive totals. If you only copy edit one section of an article, you get credit for one article, but the word count should only include the section that you actually copy edited. Complete information is available on the ], or you could ask any of the coordinators if you have any questions. Sincerely, --] (]) 22:40, 7 August 2011 (UTC) | |||

I see that when you are going over a few spaces in a line, you use the * to make a bullet. You don't really need to do that, as you can actually just use ":". (without the quotes) | |||

::Using :: makes this (and so on) | |||

Hi, I don't understand what you were fixing on this page, a "taxobox" glitch. Was there a reason that you commented out the About template? ] (]) 22:37, 30 August 2011 (UTC) | |||
* Thanks for the note. I have restored the About-hatnote. The glitch in the Taxobox comes from the internal div-tag ("<div>") in ] which forces all text down the page in older browsers when an image follows the taxobox. By putting an outer-table around the taxobox, then all the text can wrap alongside, left of the taxobox, on older browsers, such as ] on ]. Several months ago, I tried to remove the non-portable div-tag which had been added on 29 November 2010 into ], but I was fought bitterly to have it remain and ruin the display on older browsers. I am not sure why it was considered crucial to have the div-tag. Let me know of any other issues. Thanks. -] (]) 23:00, 30 August 2011 (UTC) | |||

== GOCE drive ces == | |||
Hi | |||
Can you tell me what you are using to edit articles with? I am intrigued due to the edit summaries you are leaving. | |||
I would also suggest that you consider editing large articles in more than one edit. There are a couple of reasons for this; most notably that it makes it easier to go back and correct problems that might arise, as well as helping other editors who can see what you have changed more easily. It also avoids any edit conflict problems that might arise. ] (]) 18:14, 13 September 2011 (UTC) | |||
* I am editing some text in the WP edit-window, but using Microsoft Notepad for ]s, and ] for counting words & strings. I sync the rare edit-conflicts by merging texts, and when running multiple edits, there is a greater danger of alerting other editors to change a page and cause edit-conflicts. In reality, I typically edit some pages twice: once for most changes, and a 2nd edit to fix a few last-minute typos. In other cases, where I edited a page only "once" then perhaps I intended to edit again, but later I became distracted by other articles. The number of changes, per page, is somewhat staggering for me (large articles), so I try to just change the whole page at one time, while I can still focus on the subject, as a whole. -] (]) 18:44, 13 September 2011 (UTC) | |||

{{collapsetop|bg=#33FFCC|RfA reform: ...and what you can do now.}} | |||
<small>(You are receiving this message because you are either a task force member, or you have contributed to recent discussions on any of ].)</small> | |||
'''The number of nominations''' continues to nosedive seriously, according to ]. We know why this is, and if the trend continues our reserve of active admins will soon be underwater. Misplaced Pages now needs suitable editors to come forward. This can only be achieved either through ] to the current system, a ], or by ]. | |||
'''A lot of work''' is constantly being done behind the scenes by the coordinators and task force members, such as monitoring the talk pages, discussing new ideas, organising the project pages, researching statistics and keeping them up to date. You'll also see for example that we have recently made tables to compare how other Wikipedias choose their sysops, and some tools have been developed to more closely examine !voters' habits. | |||
'''The purpose of ]''' is to focus attention on ''specific'' issues of our admin selection process and to develop RfC proposals for solutions to improve them. For this, we have organised the project into ] each with their own discussion pages. It is important to understand that all Misplaced Pages policy changes take a long time to implement whether or not the discussions appear to be active - getting the proposals right ''before'' offering them for discussion by the broader community is crucial to the success of any RfC. Consider keeping the pages and their talk pages on your ]; ''do'' check out older threads before starting a new one on topics that have been discussed already, and if you start a new thread, ''please'' revisit it regularly to follow up on new comments. | |||
'''The object of ]''' is ''not'' to make it either easier or harder to become an admin - those criteria are set by those who !vote at each RfA. By providing a unique venue for developing ideas for change independent of the general discussion at ], the project has two clearly defined goals: | |||
#Improving the environment that surrounds RfA in order to encourage mature, experienced editors of the right calibre to come forward, pass the interview, and dedicate some of their time to admin tasks. | |||
#Discouraging, in the nicest way possible of course, those whose RfA will be obvious NOTNOW or SNOW, and to guide them towards the advice pages. | |||
The fastest way is through improvement to the current system. Workspace is however also available within the project pages to suggest and discuss ideas that are ]. Users are invited to make use of these pages where they will offer maximum exposure to the broader community, rather than individual projects in ]. | |||
] - let's not clutter the project with perennial chat. RFA2011 ''is now ready'' to propose some of the elements of reform, and all the task force needs to do now is to pre-draft those proposals in the project's workspace, agree on the wording, and then offer them for central discussion where the ''entire'' Misplaced Pages community will be more than welcome to express their opinions in order to build consensus. | |||
'''New tool''' Check your RfA !voting history! Since the editors' RfA !vote counter at X!-Tools has been down for a long while, we now have a new to replace it. A significant improvement on the former tool, it provides a a complete breakdown of an editor's RfA votes, together with an analysis of the participant's voting pattern. | |||
'''Are you ready to help?''' Although the main engine of RFA2011 is its task force, ''constructive'' comments from any editors are always welcome on the project's various talk pages. The main reasons why ] was never successful in getting anything done are that threads on different aspects of RfA are all mixed together, and are then archived where nobody remembers them and where they are hard to find - the same is true of ad hoc threads on ]. | |||

==Stubs== | |||
Thanks. Well, unlike most on here I try to think of the world evenly and at least try to think about each country as if it were my own. There is so much missing, millions of articles, but some of those millions are ones which already exist in other language. I just try to bridge the gap and at least try to identify topics I know which have been excluded due to systematic bias and which an encyclopedia of this magnitude really should cover. I actually think this project needs editors who think neutrally and who try to even up coverage by comparing categories with other wikipedias and trying to replicate them in coverage. There is something very wrong if we have 700 episodes of some US TV series but are missing 700 mountains or rivers of some region of a country. I know that people will generally edit what they are interested in which is why this has often been the case, but as an encyclopedia really it is our duty to try to approach the project from a neutral perspective. Because there is so much missing and time is an issue, initial quality can often be very low. I wish this wasn't the case but I do translate a lot of articles like ], ] etc. I just try to cover what I can with the time I have. I never start an article which couldn't be sourced or reasonably improved, in fact the inter transwiki articles the content is there for the taking...♦ ] 09:39, 1 November 2011 (UTC) | |||

I have a Master's degree in Anthropology and a PhD in Comparative Literature. A list of pages I've worked on is available ]. Most of these it would appear I'm now banned from editing. I will start a few other new pages that need creation myself (by the way, am I banned from creating new pages within the jurisdiction of the ban, or just those that already exist?) If I start a new page on, for example, the clearly notable person ], a founding member of the ], will it be automatically be deleted and I face further sanction from the Gulag team? Just asking. Maybe nobody knows, in which case I'm always in favor of setting precedent by assuming the liberty of conscience, on the examples you cited in your post to my talk page. Not to mention that these would be the sorts of pages that I am most professionally and academically prepared to work on. Any suggestions are much appreciated. "Forgive them for the know know what they do indeed." One of these days when I'm unbanned I've got a real barnstar for you, my friend.--] (]) 17:56, 10 November 2011 (UTC) | |||

It will take time to review the prior actions, and perhaps the strategy wiki has some discussions to enable more users to discuss whether bans are really needed. -] (]) 06:36, 12 November 2011 (UTC) | |||
