Sure, I'd be happy to adopt you! - Diligent Terrier (and friends) 17:34, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are now officially adopted. You can ask your questions on the talk page of User:Diligent Terrier/Adoption Center. If you ask a question there, be sure to notify me after doing so, and I can answer your question as soon as possible. Also be sure to watch that page, because I may occasionally post something there for all my adoptees. Cheers! - Diligent Terrier (and friends) 17:58, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

By the way - you may be an only child in real life, but here on Wikipedia, I have 11 adoptees.

Malin to Mizen

You voted for a delete here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Malin to Mizen. However, evidence establishing the noteworthiness of the topic has since been given and you have not been heard from since. I'm requesting that you and the other early voters return to the discussion and reaffirm or refute your previous position. --MQDuck 00:09, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment Request

For Big Walnut High School, I didn't actually do an assessment, I just seemed to make a note of doing so. I checked the logs, and I didn't do one. My fault completely, but I agree with the page the way it's assessed.

I just made a few updates, but please note the "citation needed" tags. (Ex.: ^{[citation needed]}) It's best you use proper {{Citation}} format. See Citation Templates for the correct methodology. Preferred sources included newspaper, journals and other third-party documents that show NPOV towards the subject. Also keep the article up-to-date, today being the most current day of the school's existence and everything in the past should be properly noted, there should be no "a science wing is going to be built by Oct. 2007", etc. Though the BWHS article doesn't seem to have much of an issue with that.

Other than that: see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Schools#Structure for the recommended structure for articles and tips for what to include. Wikipedia:Article_development#How_to_develop_an_article help you expand your article. Become familiar with Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment which provides a good general overview of what articles should look like. Take a look at Wikipedia:Good article criteria and Wikipedia:Featured article criteria to see what you're eventually trying to attain with the BWHS site.

B-class assessment

Criteria

B {{B-Class}}	The article is suitably referenced, with inline citations where necessary. It has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged is cited. The use of citation templates such as `{{cite web}}` is not required, but the use of <ref></ref> tags is encouraged. The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies. It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing. The article has a defined structure, including a lead section and all appropriate sections of content. It contains all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind. The article is reasonably well written. The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but it certainly need not be "brilliant". The Manual of Style need not be followed rigorously. The article contains supporting materials, such as an infobox, images, or diagrams, where appropriate. It should have an infobox where relevant and useful. Images are not required, although illustrated articles are encouraged. The article presents its content in an appropriately accessible way. It is written with as broad an audience in mind as possible. Although Wikipedia is more than just a general encyclopedia, the article should not assume unnecessary technical background and technical terms should be explained or avoided where possible.

Results

1. Only 2 references. You need one or more for each claim (ie.: The school was built in 1991, after the district decided that a new high school was needed.) Two citations are desirable here, one to verify the building and one for the need. These may be the same source. Use <ref name="example1">Reference text here</ref> (ie.: The school was built in 1991<ref name="example1">Reference text here</ref>, after the district decided that a new high school was needed.<ref name="example1"> if the source is the same.)

2. A good start. See expansion advice above for more on this topic.

3. Again, see advice given above.

4. What's there is good and well-written. No significant errors in prose.

5. No pictures or imagery. If possible take one yourself and upload it to Wikimedia Commons.

6. No major problems there.

Conclusion

Great start and keep up the good work. Request another assessment in the future should you feel that the BWHS has significantly changed.

Please feel free to contact me or any of the assessors listed here with questions or clarifications.

I know this is a long answer, but I hope it helps you on your way. Calebrw (talk) 21:37, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

Yes this article remains start-class, but only just barely. I like to see about 5 third-party refs with some first-party refs for C-class. This is just my rating style, other assessors may do things differently. With that, and a bit of expantion, you'd easily have a C-class article. Calebrw (talk) 03:48, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New image project

Hi. This little form letter is just a courtesy notice to let you know that a proposal to merge the projects Wikipedia:WikiProject Free images, Wikipedia:WikiProject Fair use, Wikipedia:WikiProject Moving free images to Wikimedia Commons and Wikipedia:WikiProject Illustration into the newly formed Wikipedia:WikiProject Images and Media has met with general support at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/Files. Since you're on the rosters of membership in at least one of those projects, I thought you might be interested. Conversation about redirecting those projects is located here. Please participate in that discussion if you have any interest, and if you still have interest in achieving the goals of the original project, we'd love to have you join in. If you aren't interested in either the conversation or the project, please pardon the interruption. :) Thanks. Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 16:50, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewer granted

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 revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was 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.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Dabomb87 (talk) 21:47, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
