question

I was just rejected for VP, which I'm perfectly fine with. I was just wondering what mainspace edits are. Mm40 _{Your Hancock Please} Thanks. —Preceding comment was added at 18:12, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Edits to the "mainspace"- the "mainspace" refers to the article namespace. The others are the talk, wikipedia, wikipedia talk, portal, portal talk, category, help, etc. Calvin 1998 ^(t-c) 18:16, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Do tags for speedy and non-speedy deletion count main space edits? Reply on my talk page. Thanks. Me what do u want? _{Your Hancock Please} —Preceding comment was added at 23:32, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

The Novels WikiProject Newsletter - Issue XXIII - April 2008

Archives  |  Tip Line  |  Editors The Novels WikiProject Newsletter Issue XXIII - April 2008
Project news Elections are now taking place for coordinators of the project for the next six months. Any editors interested in seeking a coordinator position, or who want a say in who is selected, should indicate as much here. Member news The project has currently 381 members, 69 joined & 0 leavers since the start of March 2008. Other news The project's long-time lead coordinator, Kevinalewis, has announced he is not standing as a candidate for another term in that capacity. We would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to him for the extraordinary work he has done for this project. To Kill a Mockingbird and El Señor Presidente were both recently promoted to Featured Article status. This brings the novel FA count to 14! It has been suggested that WikiProject Sword of Truth be merged into WP:NOVELS, perhaps as a task force. Task force news The Shannara WikiProject was merged into the project as the Shannara task force. Anyone who can help would be appreciated. Two inactive projects were converted into task forces, so Chronicles of Narnia task force and Lemony Snicket task force have been created. People interested in the aforementioned subjects are encouraged to support the new task forces. (Thank to Wassupwestcoast for the tip) Novel related news The science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke died on 19 March aged 90. The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Díaz won both the National Book Critics Circle Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for 2007. Current debates There is a discussion regarding further task forces for other genres of fiction now taking place here.

VP issues

I've been having some trouble unsing VP and it looks like there are some other people with the same problem that their username isn't recognised when they try and log in. It was reported on AD's bug tracker but closed three times and there's a couple of mentions on the bug page on WP. I'm using v1.38 and I was wondering if anyone's aware of the issue?
