Jubilee Line page split
[edit]Hello!
Hope youre well gaurdian! I have a bit of a problem with an artical A while back I managed to post a template for spliting an artical in two. I even left a message on the appropriate task force asking them to look into it, IIRC, however, quite a while has passed and noone realy has commented. Being something of an unglamourous subject I understand why it might have not have attracted much attention. Is there anything more I should do to stoke the fire? Or should I submitt (against my own and a few other peoples judgement) to ambivilance? The artical in question is for the Jubilee Line in London, and I proposed splitting off its lengthy and complex history into the seperate artical 'Fleet line'. I could be wrong, but I think something similar has been done for a proposed but never built subway line in NY. What do you recon?
Much appreciated,
Regards,

Declined Speedy Deletion: Wildboyz episodes
[edit]Hello Accurizer, and thanks for your work patrolling new changes. I am just informing you that I declined the speedy deletion of Wildboyz episodes - a page you tagged - because: Article has content Please review the criteria for speedy deletion before tagging further pages. If you have any questions, please let me know. SoWhy 09:05, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
Tagging
[edit]You shouldn't mark edits where you add maintenance tags as minor eg here, they might cause an editor watching the page to miss it, which misses the point. Cheers, Oreo Priest talk 03:07, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
Discussion at WikiProject New Jersey
[edit]Hi, Accurizer, User:Nightscream and I had a disagreement over certain parts of NJ municipality articles; because the discussion could potentially affect hundreds of articles, we decided to bring the discussion to WikiProject New Jersey.

WikiProject New Jersey Newsletter (November 2009)
[edit] The WikiProject New Jersey Newsletter | |||

| Project News | Article Alerts | ||
| Education Task Force - The conversion of the former WikiProject Education is New Jersey has been completed. New Jersey education-related articles are now supported by the Education task force. The project banner has been updated to fully support the task force with independent importance ratings. No More Comments - A proposal at the Village Pump has resulted in the deprecation of comments subpages. These were usually found at Talk:Article title/Comments and contained little more than assessment notes. These pages were not widely watched, and are often a hidden location for vandalism and BLP violations. WPNJ has 104 articles that used these pages. A complete list of them, along with their contents, can be viewed at Wikipedia:WikiProject New Jersey/Deprecation of comments. It is up to the members of WPNJ to decide what to do with this information. |
The following articles may be in need of attention:

| Municipality template compromise; School Districts (almost) complete | New WPNJ members | ||
| Legislative templates in municipal articles - A rather lengthy discussion ran from the end of August until the end of October regarding the use of our legislative district templates in articles about local municipalities. Many WPNJ members commented on the concept, and a proposed compromise seems to have been reached. The templates will require some adjustments to fit the new wording, but should result in more directly relevant sections about County, State, and Federal representation in our articles on cities, towns, villages, townships, and boroughs. Hopefully, more dicussions like this can result is some kind of Manual of Style to bring greater standardization to all of these articles. School District articles now comprehensive - WPNJ Founder Alansohn recently reported that almost all of New Jersey's school districts now have articles - "I have created the article for the last missing (non-vocational) school district in the state." Congrats to Alansohn, who I am sure would love more members at the Education task force to help maintain these articles! |

| Editor's news. OK, so I am going to try this again. It's been a little over a year since our last edition, and activity at the project was a bit slow during that time. Things have picked up again over the last few months, so once more into the breech I go. I will try to produce this newsletter on a regular basis (bi-monthly?) to see if we can get some more activity going at WPNJ. Help is always appreciated, and there is plenty to do. - Jim Miller See me | Touch me | |||

Tropicana Atlantic City
[edit]As an FYI I've reverted your ownership edits for the Tropicana Atlantic City because Carl Icahn and the other bondholders have not yet taken control, In fact they have recently asked the New Jersey Casino Control Commission for an extension to complete the sale and it is expected that the sale will be done sometime during first quarter of 2010. Please see this article from the Press of Atlantic City located at http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/business/article_1155e6f2-df82-11de-bf77-001cc4c002e0.html.

WikiProject New Jersey Newsletter (January 2010)

| New Statistics Table There has been an upgrade to the WP 1.0 bot that updates our project's summary table. The new table lists all page classes including Portal-class, Redirect-class, and Disambig-class. We now have a better picture of the scope of the WikiProject and the pages that we cover. New York Times to charge for access The New York Times is an invaluable resource for properly referencing articles, but especially due to its extensive archives and coverage of New Jersey issues. The announcement that metered content will be started in 2011 has the potential to make article sourcing much more difficult. It also causes a need to update linked sources in articles before all of the NYT links go dead. Any link can be archived on demand by using WebCite. We can help avoid dead links by archiving any article sources from the NYT. |
The following articles may be in need of attention:
Featured Article/List candidates: Good Article nominees: | ||
| All BLP, All the Time | New WPNJ members | ||
| BLP Issue Boils Over There are discussions all over the 'pedia about deleting close to 50,000 unreferenced Biographies of Living People. We won't get into a rehash here, but let's just look at what we can do. There is a new item on the project task list for sourcing BLPs. All articles that are in both Category:People from New Jersey and Category:All unreferenced BLPs are now available on this work list. These articles need to be sourced, PRODded, or sent to AfD. An ounce of prevention Unreferenced BLPs are one of the catgories regularly listed in the WPNJ Cleanup listing. New articles are also a prime location to find articles that do not yet have references. You can keep an eye on the New Articles list to help prevent the workload from getting any larger. Can we do more? There are bots that will automatically add the WPNJ Project Banner to all articles in our designated categories if we have consensus to request it. Join the discussion here. |
Please welcome the following new members to WikiProject New Jersey:

| In NJ, politics means article updates | Help Wanted | ||
| New Leaders in NJ Government Over the past 2 weeks, new legislators have been sworn in, the legislature has new leadership, the 55th Governor of New Jersey has been inaugurated, and we have our first Lt. Governor. All new members of the Legislature have at least stub articles, and many of the templates have been updated. Updating templates Many New Jersey articles utilize stadardized templates to convey information. With elections happening as often as they do in this state, January is always a good time to review these templates and update them with new information. Does your town or county have new elected officials? It's maintainance time on many of our articles on municipalities and counties as well. |

| Editor's news Must have been some winter holiday season in New Jersey, because the project talk page has been unusually quiet. I thought with all that snow, many of us would be inside and doing things here at WP. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and are enjoying a healthy and happy 2010!! - Jim Miller See me | Touch me | |||

You are now a Reviewer
[edit]
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 02:21, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
