WikiProject valued pictures and WikiProject Council/Proposals

Hi Elucidate. I saw your valued pictures note at Wikipedia Signpost/Newsroom/Suggestions. WikiProject Council/Proposals is a good place to gauge support for a WikiProject valued pictures before putting a lot of effort into creating a more detailed project page. -- Suntag 14:48, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Re Valued pictures project

Hey, good luck with the VP project and thanks for keeping me up to date. You jumped into that again pretty quickly, and have given it a pretty short lead time. Hope all goes well (I am not able to spend a lot of time on Wiki atm, so will keep in touch with it, but will only have limited involvement at least for the time being).

One thing I tried to avoid when designing my version was a lot of 'overhead' re closing procedures. I notice that you've taken a similar line to the FP closing procedure – having done my fair share of closing at FPC I know that that can be pretty time consuming. I hope that won't be too much of a burden. I was also wondering whether you should have left more time for input and opinion from some other users before launching, but if you want to be bold then that's fine (and I guess there was a fair bit of that back with my proposal). I'm also still a bit unclear on the use of the 'seal' – I saw somewhere you mention to Slaunger that you would be using a different one from VI on Commons, but it seems to be the same? I haven't really had time to fully digest the criteria yet, but most of the other stuff seems to be pretty reminiscent of FPC. Cheers, --jjron (talk) 12:52, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Union North Article

Hi you helped to format my union north article to make it more unbiased and add references. I believe this is a good quality article now. How can i ensure that it is not deleted?

A8h (talk) 18:13, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer of helping me expand the article but i think i can use what you have done and expand it myself. Many thanks for your help!

Art Deco

Glad to help. You might also seek ideas from one or two of the editors listed in the "Arts" section of WP:PRV. They almost certainly will know more about art than I. Finetooth (talk) 19:42, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Another tb. A tip – you don't have to sign comments when you send tb's, because they include a link to your userpage already. Just one of the little tips here and there... ;)

Naganandini

Hi. Thank you for nominating this on DYK. Glad that it came through on the main page! Cheers. VasuVR (talk, contribs) 16:35, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi, I have started the review of your article Art Deco and have begun listing some comments Talk:Art Deco/GA1. I am willing to help you out with some copy editing of prose. The article is very interesting, but I think it could be expanded some to broaden the coverage. I like the article and I think that with a few fixes, it will pass GA. Please feel free to contact me with questions or comments. Regards, —Mattisse (Talk) 19:27, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

I will withdraw the GAN for you. You can resubmit it when you are ready. Regards, —Mattisse (Talk) 20:50, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, I had to fail the article. The GAN people said that since the review had been started, that was the only alternative. That still doesn't prevent you from resubmitting it when you are ready. Regards, —Mattisse (Talk) 21:48, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

Adoption

Okay, we've really got to start something here. :)

How about a few peer reviews? It helped me learn a lot about wiki-formatting, just from exchanging advice with fellow editors. Have a look at WP:PR and see what you like. —La Pianista (TCS) 00:40, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
