Article alerts
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none
parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Misplaced Pages:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Misplaced Pages talk:Article alerts.

Relationship with WikiProject United States
People from a variety of WikiProjects have had concerns about the scope of WikiProject United States and its relationship with other WikiProjects. We have created an RFC and invite all interested editors to discuss it at: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject United States#Mission statement for WikiProject United States.

Question
When Chris Pappas was first elected to the New Hampshire Executive Council in 2012, several media outlets credited him as the first openly LGBT person elected to that body. However, on at least two occasions since his Misplaced Pages article was created, editors (one signed-in, one anonymous IP) have removed that assertion from his article, both times claiming in their edit summary that he was preceded by Raymond S. Burton.
However, Burton's article mentions and sources exactly nothing about him having been gay, and a Google search offers up exactly zero sources which support the assertion either.
Frankly, I suspect that in reality Burton wasn't gay and the editor(s) is/are confusing him with Raymond Buckley, but I wanted to ask if somebody more knowledgeable about New Hampshire politics could weigh in one way or the other. Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 00:12, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, Ray Burton being gay was one of those things that people just kinda knew, but never really bothered to put in writing anywhere... I haven't been able to find any sources to verify it, either, although I had heard it elsewhere before (by word of mouth, which doesn't count)... And while I can see people sometimes mixing up Ray Burton with Raymond Buckley, I don't think that's what's happening here... Cooljeanius (talk) (contribs) 00:27, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
- Well, even if it is true, it's unverifiable if we can't source it and thus the distinction still goes to Pappas on the "openly" part of the equation. My suspicion about Burton being mixed up with Buckley had more to do with the similarity of their names than anything else — I don't have the necessary background knowledge to know if they were prone to being confused with each other on any other grounds besides that.

WikiProject X is live!
Hello everyone!
You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Misplaced Pages:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

WP:NH redirect
One can look for WP:NOTHERE and type WP:NH in the search bar, then end up redirected here. Therefore, I think the Redirect template should be added at the top. --ToonLucas22 (talk) 00:40, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- Which Redirect template do you mean specifically? Cooljeanius (talk) (contribs) 19:42, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Cooljeanius: The normal Redirect template ({{redirect}}). It would be like
{{redirect|WP:NH|indications that an user is not here to build an encyclopedia|Misplaced Pages:Here to build an encyclopedia#Not being here to build an encyclopedia}}
under the project header template. --ToonLucas22 (talk) 14:58, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Cooljeanius: The normal Redirect template ({{redirect}}). It would be like
- OK, I see you already added it... LGTM anyways... Cooljeanius (talk) (contribs) 22:42, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
Wiki Loves Pride
You are invited to participate in Wiki Loves Pride!
- What? Wiki Loves Pride, a campaign to document and photograph LGBT culture and history, including pride events
- When? June 2015
- How can you help?
- 1.) Create or improve LGBT-related articles and showcase the results of your work here
- 2.) Upload photographs or other media related to LGBT culture and history, including pride events, and add images to relevant Misplaced Pages articles; feel free to create a subpage with a gallery of your images (see examples from last year)
- 3.) Contribute to an LGBT-related task force at another Wikimedia project (Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons, Wikivoyage, etc.)
Or, view or update the current list of Tasks. This campaign is supported by the Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group, an officially recognized affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation. Visit the group's page at Meta-Wiki for more information, or follow Wikimedia LGBT+ on Facebook. Remember, Wiki Loves Pride is about creating and improving LGBT-related content at Wikimedia projects, and content should have a neutral point of view. One does not need to identify as LGBT or any other gender or sexual minority to participate. This campaign is about adding accurate, reliable information to Misplaced Pages, plain and simple, and all are welcome!
If you have any questions, please leave a message on the campaign's main talk page.
Thanks, and happy editing!
