March 2011 GAN backlog elimination drive a week away
WikiProject Good Articles will be running a GAN backlog elimination drive for the entire month of March. The goal of this drive is to bring the number of outstanding Good Article nominations down to below 50. This will help editors in restoring confidence to the GAN process as well as actively improving, polishing, and rewarding good content. If you are interested in participating in the drive, please place your name here. Awards will be given out to those who review certain numbers of GANs as well as to those who review the most. On behalf of my co-coordinator Wizardman, we hope we can see you in March. MuZemike delivered by MuZebot 00:40, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

File source problem with File:A_semaphore_standing_on_the_platform_of_Lincoln_Central.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:A_semaphore_standing_on_the_platform_of_Lincoln_Central.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Misplaced Pages. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sreejith K (talk) 06:47, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of User:ACBest/Secondary
A tag has been placed on User:ACBest/Secondary, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done for the following reason:
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Misplaced Pages criteria may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. —Ryulong (竜龙) 11:21, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

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. 13:20, 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.

At this time, Proposal 1, 3, and 5 have received full (or close to) support. If you have questions of anything general (not related to one specif proposal), please leave a message under the General discussion thread.

GAN December 2013 Backlog Drive
In past Backlog Drives, the goal was to reduce the backlog of Good article nominations. In the upcoming drive, another goal will be added - raising as much money as we can for the Wikimedia Foundation. How will this work? Well, its pretty simple. Any user interested in donating can submit a pledge at the Backlog Drive page (linked above). The pledge should mention the amount of money the user is willing to donate per review. For example, if a user pledges 5 cents per review and 100 nominations are reviewed, the total donation amount is $5.00. At the time this message was sent out, two users have submitted pledges for a total of 8 cents per review. All pledges, no matter how much money, are greatly appreciated. Also, in no way is this saying you must make a pledge. |

Notification of automated file description generation
Your upload of File:Avantix mobile machine.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.
This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

March 2014 GAN Backlog Drive
It's that time again! Starting on March 1, there will be another GAN Backlog Drive! There will be several changes compared to previous drives:
- This drive will introduce a new component to it; a point system. In a nutshell, older nominations are worth more points than newer nominations. The top 3 participants who have the points will be awarded the Golden, Silver, or Bronze Misplaced Pages Puzzle Piece Trophy, respectively.
- Unlike the December 2013 Backlog Drive, earning an additional barnstar if you reached your goal has been removed.
- The allowance to have insufficient reviews has been lowered to 2 before being disqualified.
- An exception to the rule that all reviews must be completed before the deadline has been created.
Also, something that I thought I would share with all of you is that we raised $20.88 (USD) for the WMF in the December 2013 drive. It may not sound like a lot but considering that that was raised just because we reviewed articles, I would say that's pretty good! With that success, pledges can be made for the upcoming drive if you wish.
More info regarding the drive and full descriptions regarding the changes to this drive can be found on the the drive page. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on the drive talk page.
I look forward to your participation and hope that because of it, some day the backlog will be gone!

GAN March 2014 Backlog Drive

WikiProject Good articles Future GAN Backlog Drive
Hello everyone! Hope you've all been having a great summer!
TheQ Editor recently proposed the idea of having another Backlog Drive in either September/October or November/December of this year. For those of you who have participated in the past two drives you know I was the one who organized them, however, come September, this will be my most important year in school so I will not be able to coordinate this drive (if it happens). TheQ Editor has volunteered to be a coordinator for the drive. If any of you would like to co-coordinator, please notify TheQ Editor on his talk page.
If you would be interested in participating in a Backlog Drive sometime before the end of this year, please notify TheQ Editor. Also, make sure to specify what month(s) work best for you.
At the time this message was sent out, the backlog was at 520 nominations. Since May, the backlog has been steadily increasing and we are currently near an all time high. Even though the backlog will not disappear over one drive, this drive can lead to several others which will (hopefully) lead to the day where there is no longer a backlog.
As always, the more participants, the better, and everyone is encouraged to participate!

GA Cup
Hello everyone! We hope you have all been having a great summer!
As we all know, the recent GAN Backlog Drives have not had any big impact on the backlog. Because of that, me (Dom497), Figureskatingfan, and TheQ Editor have worked on an idea that could possibly finally put a dent into the massive backlog. Now, I will admit, the idea isn't entirely ours as we have took the general idea of the WikiCup and brought it over to WikiProject Good Articles. But anyways, here's what we have in mind:
For all of you that do not know what the WikiCup is, it is an annual competition between several editors to see who can get the most Good Articles, Featured Article's, Did You Know's, etc. Based of this, we propose to you the GA Cup. This competition will only focus on reviewing Good articles.
For more info on the proposal, click here. As a FYI, the proposal page is not what the final product will look like (if you do go ahead with this idea). It will look very similar to WikiCup's page(s).
The discussion for the proposal will take place here. Please let us know if you are interested, have any concerns, things to consider, etc.

WikiProject Good Articles - GA Cup
WikiProject Good Articles's 2014-15 GA Cup
WikiProject Good articles is holding a new competition, the GA Cup, from October 1, 2014 - March 28, 2015. The Cup will be based on reviewing Good article nominations; for each review, points will be awarded with bonuses for older nominations, longer articles and comprehensive reviews. All participants will start off in one group and the highest scoring participants will go through to the second round. At the moment six rounds are planned, but this may change based on participant numbers. Some of you may ask: what is the purpose for a competition of this type? Currently, there is a backlog of about 500 unreviewed Good article nominations, almost an all time high. It is our hope that we can decrease the backlog in a fun way, through friendly competition. Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors! Sign-ups will be open until October 15, 2014 so sign-up now! If you have any questions, take a look at the FAQ page and/or contact one of the four judges. Cheers from NickGibson3900, Dom497, TheQ Editor and Figureskatingfan. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 19:04, 15 September 2014 (UTC) To receive future GA Cup newsletter, please add your name to our mailing list. |
Speedy deletion nomination of File:Island Line Trains logo.png
A tag has been placed on File:Island Line Trains logo.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Misplaced Pages (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

isnt there supposed to be some kind of message sayiing 'protected'? ACBest 07:53, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- On articles, yes; if you like, you're more than welcome to add {{sprotect}} to the top of your userpage. You can also use {{sprotect2}}, which is a little less intrusive (just a lock icon in the corner). Either way, it's your option -- many users with protected pages choose to omit the template. You're still able to edit the page, and any established account will be able to do the same; the template's only there for notification when needed. If that makes sense.

What Links Here?
Why Are A Lot Of Articles About The Simpsons On The What Links Here? Page On User:ACBest ACBestMy Contributions 20:16, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- It's because your signature is on Template:The Simpsons to-do. They all use that template and, therefore, have that link to your user page. Metros232 20:22, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you.

To Do
Can i create a page to put to do lists on priority undefined to 9, for stuff i have to do on wikipedia and suff i have to do in real life? ACBestMy Contributions 17:38, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- The to do lists are mostly for WikiProjects and that sort of thing, for everyone on Misplaced Pages to contribute to. To keep your own to do list, you could use your userpage (User:ACBest) or a user subpage such as User:ACBest/To do; however, you should only put Misplaced Pages-related things there (non-Misplaced Pages-related things are discouraged here). Hope that helps! --ais523 17:45, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- OkiDo! Thanks! ACBestMy Contributions 17:47, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Clio picture
Thanks for your understanding. I've changed the file page to read: photo taken by ACBest. Edited by Pharaoh Hound. If there's any other problems please feel free to contact me. Also, thank you for letting me upload the other cropped image (your version) to the commons. If I had known about your file when I made my crop I would have simply asked to upload yours and not make mine since they're so similar (my bad, oops). --Pharaoh Hound (talk) 13:39, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
BackgounD?
Is it possible to put a background on my userpage? thanks! ACBestMy Contributions 16:51, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
- You could try adding <div style="background-color: #e0e0ff; margin: 0px; padding: 3px;"> at the top of the page, and </div> at the bottom - that would just about do it. Other than that, I doubt you can - besides it might muck up the other skins or something. --h2g2bob 17:17, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Template:User:ACBest/SpokenOutOfDate
Per the TfD, I userfied the template. It is located at User:ACBest/SpokenOutOfDate. --Woohookitty 05:56, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
Background
Is there anyway possible i can have http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c8/Wikipe-tan_full_length.png as my background on Misplaced Pages? Thanks in advance ACBestMy Contributions 17:00, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- No, I do not think their is a way for you too have this but I do not think their is a file there because when I clicked on it, it said the file cannot be found.Tellyaddict 17:10, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Article On User:ACBest/Sandbox 2
Would the article on my 2nd sandbox (link above) be big enough for creating yet? To The Helper : Feel free to touch up on my article, and feel free to replace the stub with a more fitting one Thanks ACBestMy Contributions 06:44, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- No. The article needs an external link. However, be sure that the article falls under WP:CORP. Real96 06:47, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I actually own Uti, so I know there are no links for it yet, however there are logos ACBestMy Contributions 06:51, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- Since the company hasn't opened yet, the article isn't ready for mainspace yet. And, if its for advertising the company, the company isn't ready for mainspace. Real96 07:04, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Clock and Category
{{helpme}}
2 things.
First, is it me, or is the wikipedia server time a hour slow, as the clocks changed 1 hr forward?
secondly, can i create ] or ] Thanks, and happy april fools day (no this isnt a joke!) ACBestMy Contributions 11:26, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
- The Misplaced Pages servers run on UTC, which is the same as the UK wintertime time zone. During summertime in the UK, the UK clocks go an hour forwards but Misplaced Pages remains in the original time zone. (The UTC timezone is used by Misplaced Pages to show times for people anywhere in the world; in the USA, where the time can be somewhat different from UK time, Misplaced Pages still displays times in UTC.)
- Categories generally aren't used for individual users. Special:Prefixindex/User talk:ACBest should find all your talkpages (likewise, Special:Prefixindex/User:ACBest should find all your userpages), as long as you've named them in the conventional way with User:ACBest at the start.
