== Confused New Girl ==

Hi AmaryllisGardener!

Thank you so much for inviting me to the Teahouse! I had a quick question for you--

Everything I post, no matter how many secondary sources, how above average it is in number (see my BP Cooper article) or how my sources meet Misplaced Pages's guidelines, is given an instant deletion request by user McGeddon. So I of course feel terrible, go back and find a bunch more sources (again this is the BP Cooper article) and he nominates it for deletion within less than three seconds of my updating it and thanking him for his suggestions. He could not have reviewed my new sources (5 of them) in this time. I started a talk page with him over the deletion and he hasn't responded. I see from his user page a lot of people have had this experience with him.

Could you give me some insight? I want to do a good job! I think I am obeying all the guidelines - it's a little tough to do third party sources in entertainment because the entertainment industry runs entirely off kinda wonky sources like IMDB. I just want commercial producers and indie directors to get a little more recognition. It's a bummer when I go to a festival and everyone "doesn't exist" as far as the online community is concerned - despite being in the field for decades and creating new techniques. I thought crafting wikipedia pages would be a good way to contribute to this effort, but apparently McGeddon has flagged everything I've ever done in my paltry existence for deletion, and when I make the improvements he requests he doesn't even look at them before nominating them for deletion at a higher level. for deletion.

If you have any ideas I'd really appreciate it!
Thank you,

== Adjusting pilot start date - WP:Co-op ==

]
Hello <b><font color="Black">AmaryllisGardener</font></b>,

I'll be putting out a formal update sometime soon, but I wanted to inform you that I've decided to push our start date back to mid-February rather than in January. There are number of reasons for this, but the biggest factor is that we are now facing the hard work of implementing our designs on the ]. It's a limiting environment to work with from a web-building perspective, and the team that worked on ] can offer similar testimonials to these challenges. We also want to make sure there is time for us and for you to test the environment out, ask questions at our project's ], and give us a little time to make any last changes before we start inviting editors to the space. If some of you know you will be unavailable during this time, it's totally fine if you need to bow out for the pilot. But we do need all the mentors we can get, so even if you can take the time to mentor just one or two editors, that would be fantastic.<br/>
Thanks a bunch,
]] on behalf of ''']'''.

== WP:Co-op news for December 2014 – Feburary 2015 ==

]
Hey {{BASEPAGENAME}}, it's been a while. The Co-op team has been hard at work during over the winter, so let's get right into what's been happening:
]
*'''Graphic design work is nearing completion''' and '''development work is coming along slowly but surely'''. The main components of the space, profiles, the landing page, and the mentor landing page have all been built, and we're basically just putting the pieces together. We have close-to-final draft of the landing page, which is currently at ], and in the thumbnail to the right. You can check out other components over at ] if you're curious. {{noping|Soni}}, {{noping|Slalani}}, and I are working together on some of the front page elements. We've also been doing some testing on for profile building and matching. If you're curious about checking that out, let me know.
*'''We've finished up a survey for newer editors''' to assess their experiences of using existing help spaces (e.g. ], ], ], ]) on en.wikipedia. {{u|Gabrielm199}} is putting together a summary of that survey, and in the meantime, some findings from that survey of 45 newer editors include:
**On average, editors found contributing to Misplaced Pages to be easier after using the help space compared to before.
***However, after using one or more help spaces, only half of editors reported that editing, addressing social challenges, and resolving technical issues were easy or very easy. The other half of editors were either neutral, or reported that these matters were difficult or very difficult.
**Just under 30% (11 of 38 editors) of newer editors said they probably would have stopped editing entirely had they not received support from the help space they used.
**Editors frequently reported either 1) that they would not have been learn what they needed without the help space, or 2) That they could have found it, but admitted that it would have been difficult or taken much longer.
*'''We will be making one final move of the pilot start date to March 4th, 2015.''' This is the last move (I promise), because we can't afford to run the pilot any later than that. So there it is: '''March 4th or bust!''' But we won't bust, because there are just a few things left on our plate before we can run our pilot successfully. '''I'll be alerting you about when you will be able to make mentor profiles soon''', so when you get a message about that, please take a minute or two to create your profile here (otherwise, you won't get matched to any editors!).
Thanks to all of the new mentors who have joined over the past few months. Big thanks to {{noping|Missvain}} to posting about our little project here to the . ]] 00:47, 13 February 2015 (UTC) on behalf of ''']'''.

That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. 64 competitors made it into this round, and are now broken into eight groups of eight. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups. Round 1 saw some interesting work on some very important articles, with the round leader {{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Freikorp}} owing most of his 622 points scored to a ] on the 2001 film '']'' which qualified for a times-two multiplier. This is a higher score than in previous years, as {{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant5|Godot13}} had 500 points in 2014 at the end of round 1, and our very own judge, {{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant4|Sturmvogel_66}} led round 1 with 601 points in 2013.

In addition to Freikorp's work, some other important articles and pictures were improved during round one, here's a snapshot of a few of them:
*{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Cwmhiraeth}} took ], a ], to ];
*{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|AHeneen}} worked-up the ] article, also to Good Article status;
*{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Rodw}} developed an extremely timely article to Good Article, taking '']'' there some 800 years after it was first sealed;
*And last but not least, {{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Godot13}} worked up a number of ] during round 1, including the 1948 one ] ''(pictured right)'', receiving the maximum bonus due to the number of Wikis that the related article appears in.

:{{ping|Gaff}} I wrote it referring to the RfA. Don't worry too much about the RfA or "lightening up" in general, RfA tends to have a stressing effect on editors. --] <sup>]</sup> 23:47, 2 March 2015 (UTC)

Reminder to participate in Misplaced Pages research

Hello,

I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Misplaced Pages. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.

Take the survey here.

Kind Regards,
