BAE HS.125

Where did you find the information that the last of the British Aerospace BAe 125 was delivered in February 1984? It seems to conflict with the earlier statement, three BAe 146-100s entered service with The Queen's Flight (as BAe 146 CC.2s) from 1986 as the flight's first jet aircraft. It's hard to believe that the executive aircraft in Britain are all more than 20 years old. I would have thought that the HS.125's were much newer.Pacomartin (talk) 02:02, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to Talk:Standby (theater). Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalized, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 02:23, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Sorry about that, I did that by accident, I'm actually still editing that page. Trying to work out what needs to happen here, it links to understudy which if you then click disscusion from this page, it takes you to the page which already has an article assessment (by me). I think at least I should delete the WikiProject Theatre template, as it is already on the main article. Any advice here would be appreciated. KlickingKarl (talk) 02:30, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

WikiProject Nottinghamshire proposal

Hi Karl i would suggest a note/message on the WikiProject England talk page may get some interest as that is the parent project for the regions (counties) and some earlier discussions have been held about counties without projects in the past on there.

I'm involved with most of the neighbouring counties, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire & Yorkshire, and Sheffield (forerunner to Yorkshire project), hence seeing your note on pages I've edited / watch in Notts area. (BTW I currently only watching articles and minor editing a few, so will not make promises to actively assist in set up). - Good look getting a project going for Nottinghamshire - BulldozerD11 (talk) 00:54, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks BulldozerD11, I've just done that now. Would hope to get some interested members from the article discussion pages I've posted on.KlickingKarl (talk) 02:23, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Brown sauce

I've added link to the list of famous people from Nottingham. A page that really could do with some work on the new project, I've tried a bit in the past, but have spent more time removing non-notables. Bevo74 (talk) 06:24, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Damn! I missed that! thanks.--IdreamofJeanie (talk) 14:32, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Theatre edits

Thanks for all the theatre edits, but IMO you don't need to add the talkheader template to the talk pages: I've never seen a serious argument on one of these London theatre pages and in my 2 years of watching them, editors have usually been extremely civil. The talk header just delays people being able to get down to the comments. Thanks! -- Ssilvers (talk) 20:01, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Alliance

I have just thought of an idea that could help to improve your WikiProject (Nottinghamshire). I have looked at the counties in the East Midlands and Compared them to the amount of those counties with WikiProjects, they are Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire. We all share a common purpose, that is to work on our county's articles which include local history, geography and biographies.

Therefore to help us share methods of research and many other needs (basically 'constructive collaboration' as I call it) I am proposing that we form an alliance, NOT a Merger. I believe an alliance allows us to be independent just as before but in collaboration as well. This could really benefit our WikiProjects and I feel we might be the first in Wikipedia's history. I am a member of WikiProject Lincolnshire, I have founded WP:Latin and have already proposed the idea with relatively positive feedback still coming in and have placed a notice in WikiProject England. 95jb14 (talk) 17:44, 24 September 2009 (UTC).

Newbie

Just joined Wikipedia and this group in order to update data on Collingham and surrounding villages. I already seem to have run into trouble as I've added a link to a website of which I am an administrator. Having said that, the site is free, open and carries no advertising, but contains much relevant information that can't be transcribed into Wikipedia. Am I bad or have I "done good"?--Teloz 13:22, 31 January 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Teloz (talk • contribs)

WikiProject Theatre Newsletter - February 2010

The WikiProject Theatre Newsletter (Febrauary 2010)

The WikiProject Theatre Newsletter! Issue 5 - February 2010 Welcome to the latest WikiProject Theatre newsletter (the first in quite a while!) bringing you news of what's going on in the project, what progress we're making, and how you can get involved. Latest News All theatre articles currently tagged with a project banner have now been assessed for quality. There are still plenty to assess for importance, though - see the article assessment page for details. There is now a News section on the main project page, updated automatically to keep us informed of developments in theatre articles. Collaboration of the Month Theatre has been nominated as the next project collaboration. This could be an excellent opportunity to improve the quality of one of our most important articles - listed as one of Wikipedia's top 1000 most vital articles - but it needs a lot of work before it can be considered for even good article nomination! Stop by the collaboration page for tips on how to improve an article, to add your support, or to suggest alternative or future collaborations. Jobs you can do Any and all improvements to theatre-related articles will help the project, but if you're looking for something to do, have a look at the to-do list. Some current areas of priority are: Improving top-importance articles Prioritisation of unknown-importance articles Creation of requested article stubs If you are currently working on a particular topic or area of the project, and would like to muster some support from other editors, feel free to add tasks to the to-do list. Or even think about setting up an informal working group - create a project subpage to organise tasks in a central location. Remember you can always discuss ideas with others at the project talk page. New members The past month has seen Poisonborz, 15lsoucy, LaNaranja and Phaeton23 join us - welcome to you all! If you've been editing a theatre-related article recently and noticed another user helping you who also appears to have an interest for the subject of theatre, why not drop them a line and invite them over to the project? And finally... Don't forget to add the {{User WPTheatre}} userbox to your userpage, and {{WikiProject Theatre}} banner to article talk pages to spread the word about the project! You have received this newsletter because your name is on the list of Members on the WikiProject page. If this information is out of date and you no longer wish to receive the newsletter, please remove your name from the list, or click here to stop receiving it. If you have any news or announcements to be broadcast, do let us know on the talk page.

Thanks

Opps I made error. I am very grateful for your bringing this to my attention--this is an encyclopedia. It has been corrected.--LittleHow (talk) 05:05, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for November 23

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Albertopolis, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kensington and Chelsea (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:54, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 09:23, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
