[edit]I noticed the file Image:Isiahleggett.jpg currently does not have any fair use rationale as to why this file is acceptable under Wikipedia's restrictive fair use policy. It will be deleted soon if rationale is not added. Thanks. --tomf688 (talk - email) 03:11, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for assessing this article. I have contributed to the article and I would like to improve it. Could you write at Talk:Leonard Orban what improvements in your opinion are mostly needed? --Michkalas 23:43, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you very much for your comments. They have really helped me a lot. I have tried to follow them and improve the article. So now there is an expanded lead section and more details on his personal life and his career. I have added also a few words on his political leanings. For the time being, I have no more English language sources that I could consult -though a better search may provide something more. The EU has announced that Orban will have his own website, but until then probable there are very few things to add from English sources. Some Romanian language sources may help for his earlier carrier. I have asked some Romanian wikipedians for possible Romanian sources, but nothing came out of it. So maybe it is now time to ask for a peer review.
- Please answer at Talk:Leonard Orban. --Michkalas 20:57, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
- I have taken the initiative to submit the article for peer review at Peer review/Leonard Orban on 28 January. Well, no reaction for the time. Of course, many articles are submitted, but, maybe, the article on Orban is not really interesting for a wider audience. Anyway, you were for the time the only one to provide some feedback, an ideed very useful feedback - and on your own initiative! Thanks! --Michkalas 22:41, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
That was awesome work ! I'd love to point you towards this list of royalty articles that are uncited. Thanks SO much for a fine job. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:06, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

ISBN & Google Books
[edit]Hi, welcome in Wikipedia. The reason of using ISBN is that we don't choose particular website, either Google Books, or Amazon, etc., to link a book. With ISBN, you simply point to a wikipedia page. For instance, just type ISBN 0-660-13063-7, the mediawiki will give a link directly to the WP ISBN page. There, you can choose which website you want to look for the book. However, old books do not have ISBN, so in that case, I think, it is okay to link to Google Books. Cheers. — Indon (reply) — 16:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi Mocko, and welcome again to wikipedia :-) I've noted you've assessed as "start" the article Ahmat Acyl. Since you've seen the article could you give me some input so to rase the quality of the article, and remove defects? Ciao,--Aldux 21:52, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
State Democratic Parties
[edit]I'm writing because I see you have been creating articles about the Democratic Party branches in various states which just reiterate their titles. Do you anticipate that you will be adding more content to these articles? I personally am not going to submit these articles for deletion, but other editors might do so if they find them to be lacking in content. --Metropolitan90 20:06, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit]Just thought I'd drop you a quick message to say a big thanks for your assessing so many articles! Cheers! – DBD 18:26, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
I've just sectioned the article as per your request. Maybe you can give it a better rate now, as I seem it's well written and informative. Bye.--Attilios 19:23, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
George Calvert
[edit]Thanks :) I think it could do with another copyedit - try the league of copyeditors - at times the prose seems clunky and at some points unclear - "He also suffered the insults of a Puritan minister named Stourton who went to the Privy Council to accuse Baltimore of harbouring the practice of Catholicism, though the Council dismissed the charges." - hadn't he declared himself Catholic when he left politics? And can you make it clearer that it was his new wife that fled south to Virginia? RHB Talk - Edits 13:43, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Great work!
[edit]Not at all. I thought it might have been a mistake. BTW, I don't know how you find the stamina to find citations and review articles so quickly! Well done! DrKiernan 15:37, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
RE: WikiProject: Biography Assessment Drive
[edit]Thank you very much for the heads up regarding the assessment drive. I will definitely be helping out as much as possible. Cheers, Thereen 03:18, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
Regarding your notes on the talk page, 1) Was a typo, I corrected it. 2) Was part of a completely different sentence I dragged there by mistake and then missed on the read through, I removed it. Thanks for your review, was there anything else you saw which needed investigating?--Jackyd101 17:47, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
Kevin Beary
[edit]Thank you for responding to my "request for assessment" with respect to the Kevin Beary article, I was wondering if you noticed that there is an AFD vote pending with respect to the article. If you have any thoughts regarding the matter, I urge you to share them. --TommyBoy 04:07, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for the great review. I did as you suggested in Talk:Eskaya. Perhaps you can check again and let me know if there are still other edit/s i can do to pass WP:GA. Thanks. --Ate Pinay (talkâ¢email) 03:28, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Aeschylus/Prometheus Bound
[edit]Mocko, thanks for making those changes. I edited the article a bit more, and explained on the article's talk page; see what you think. And thanks for all the work you put into the article, it's a huge improvement. --Akhilleus (talk) 05:49, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
Boy Scouts (Boy Scouts of America)
[edit]Thank you for your work on helping Boy Scouts of America meet GA. We had Boy Scouts (Boy Scouts of America) up at the same time too, but it was turned down and we've reworked it now and I've relisted it for GAC. I thought you may want to take a look at it for GA too. Feel free to join the ScoutingWikiProject too. Thanks again.Rlevse 12:35, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
- Done, pls look over again, thanks. Rlevse 14:58, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
Calvert
[edit]I was relieved to have your note, as I was worrying I might have upset you by seeming to attack your good work. I am always ready to help with a history or literature article at FAC, though, and all I want is for an article to meet the standard and pass.
My remaining reservations are to do with the thinness of the early part of the English section: in particular, I was surprised when I read Krugler and Codignola to find that Calvert's Catholic family had been forced into religious conformity when he was about twelve, and that his mother never really had conformed, though his father had, at least for appearances' sake, to ensure preferment. This is too signicant and revealing a detail to be left out, in my opinion, since it casts light on the background and motivations behind Calvert's conversion.
I also feel that the lead is misleading in places. Certainly I do not agree that little scholarship has been added to the nineteenth-century sources. And the following analysis seems to me somewhat shaky:
...though he lost much of his political power after his support for a failed marriage alliance between Prince Charles and the Spanish royal family. Rather than continuing in politics, he declared his Catholicism publicly in 1625 and resigned his political offices, though he was granted the title of the 1st Baron Baltimore upon his retirement.
Calvert took an interest in the colonisation of the New World, partly as a result of his conversion to Catholicism and his ensuing interest in creating a refuge for English Catholics.
The first sentence here, though true, is unexplained and will not be of much use to a general reader on its own, I fear. The impression is then given that Calvert made his conversion known before his resignation, but the reverse seems to have been the case. "Retirement", it strikes me, is the wrong word for a resignation, since Calvert was only in his forties: and by retaining his place on the Privy Council, he remained in political office, though maybe not for very long (notice the contra-notes I've added on his Privy Councillorship: without having access to Browne, I can't assess the accuracy of the Browne reference to Charles maintaining Calvert as a Privy Councillor).
I don't think the evidence and sequence of events bears out that Calvert took an interest in the New World partly as a result of his conversion to Catholicism. His conversion seems to have taken place in late 1624, by which time he already owned holdings in Newfoundlandâand even earlier he had been on the board of the Virginia Company. My impression therefore is that he became interested in the New World originally for financial reasons and that his interest in the Catholic mission came later, particularly after his encounter with Stock (this is Krugler's reading, essentially). Apart from financial and religious motivations, I believe that a political motivation emerged, too: when reading the books, I noticed that Calvert considered the colonies to be governed directly under the king's prerogative and therefore to be immune to parliamentary interference. This may also explain why Calvert continued to enjoy the support of the king in America despite having lost political influence at home.
I suppose my queries might be better raised on the talk page or the FAC page, but I don't want it to seem as if I'm picking on the article. I'm honestly not: I find the article fascinating, so many thanks for bringing it up to a level where the historical nuances are worth addressing. qp10qp 22:34, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
- Well, although consensus is important and I am outnumbered three to one, usually they won't pass until all objections are addressed. I think far more detail is necessary in the early English section and a greater variety of sources for the whole; I'm happy to address that to a point where I can switch my vote to "support", but I'm conscious that might seem like heavy interference. I do think it's possible to make this a fuller article, building on the base that you have established through considerable hard work, and for my vote to change. qp10qp 17:59, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- By the way, I notice that something's gone wrong with the coat-of-arms image (picture of the Pope instead), and I can't work out how to fix it. qp10qp 19:18, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Sunderland - GA nominee

Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies
[edit]Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of [unassessed articles] tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --Ozgod 21:30, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you - glad to be helping out! It seems ridiculous that that many articles get tagged as part of the WPBiography but do not even get tagged with a simple stub tag. If we can get a good number of being working on this per day it is feasible to knock it out in one month. Again, thank you! --Ozgod 21:39, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
EJO Article
[edit]Thanks for the feedback on the Elsie J. Oxenham article. I've done some of what you suggested, in particular a lead paragraph. Also had feedback from Duribald which I have taken on board as well, and hope to get it to B or GA standard eventually --Abbeybufo 12:03, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
Assessment Drive
[edit]Hi Mocko13. I added a rewards aspect to the Assessment Drive and an alternate way to begin assessing articles. I extended the time for the drive to one month. I also posted a teaser on the Community portal to drum up interest. -- Jreferee 16:14, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
EJO again
[edit]I've added quite a bit more now, so would welcome your feedback sometime when you have the chance --Abbeybufo 15:01, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks Mocko13, I still have a section on her use of places to add, then I'll think about peer review request --Abbeybufo 16:18, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Biography Newsletter Delivery
[edit]
 Volume II, no. 1 - March 2007 | |

Everybody needs a break sometimes, and that might go for WikiProjects as well. But the WP:Biography newsletter is back from its hiatus, and the project is healthier than ever. With more than 250 active members and upwards of 20 admins, we are one of the biggest projects on wikipedia. But size doesn't matter - or so they say. The true measure of a wikiproject is how much it contributes to the betterment of wikipedia. Which means adding your name to the rolls wasn't enough. If you haven't already, it's time to step up and help out the project. Volunteer. Contribute. So take a look at the to-do list in this newsletter, and let's get going. If you've just joined, add your name to the Members section of Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy! Lastly, this is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue (Issue 2 – April 2007). Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned, or just start editing!

Your comments about me and the reference to Awareness Loves Life article
[edit]Hello Mocko13. For a new user, you certainly are making a positive contribution to Wikipedia.
I read your comments on having Awareness Loves Life deleted from Wikipedia because of its self promotion. I have since reoved all reference to me, but this might still be in vain.
However, what most concerned me is if you feel I am merely a self promotionist and not a serious writer trying to make a difference over 20+ years in the very same areas you claim to have an interest.
While you clearly took some time to check other references on web searches, did you bother to have a look at http://www.ucadia.com? Maybe you did and you feel all of it, including the detailed social reforms and models are a complete waste of time.
The Wikipedia universe gives you the power to do good and to do bad. I have absolutely no control over it. So if you feel I am a complete fool, a person who is merely seeking to promote themselves and their crackpot theories then I respect you will do what you think is necessary.
If on the other hand you take the time and respect to actually see who I am and what I have done and feel it has some merit, than again, I am sure you will do what you feel is right.
All the very best.

Last push for the Biography Assessment Drive
[edit]We've done great work so far on the WikiProject Biography Spring 2007 Assessment Drive, reducing the 135,345 backlog by 38,626 to 96,719 as of March 20, 2007. We have only 6,720 more to go to get below 90,000. That would be outstanding and any extra effort that you can offer in these last few days of the drive (which ends March 24, 2007) would be much appreciated. If you haven't already, you may want to load Outriggr's assessment script in your monobook.js. If you have any questions, please feel free to post them on my talk page. -- Jreferee 23:17, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:CaDemPartyLogo.jpg
[edit]
This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:CaDemPartyLogo.jpg. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:50, 16 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Elsie J. Oxenham
[edit]Hi Mocko13 - you were kind enough earlier this year to give some comments on my article on Elsie J. Oxenham. I have done some more work on it over the intervening months (in short bursts, it must be said!) and would be grateful if you could have another look at it as it now stands and let me have your comments/suggestions. I have recently put it through peer review, and addressed the suggestions that were made there, so I want to know what to do next, and whether I can/should put it up for GA or FA - I haven't looked at the procedures for doing that yet ;-) ... or if you feel it is worth an A yet?

WikiProject Biography Newsletter 5
[edit]
 Volume IV, no. 4 - September 2007 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Congratulations to our 225 new members |
The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below) We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future. This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page
Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network: Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:DemPartyArkansasLogo.gif
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:DemPartyArkansasLogo.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

Notice to all members of WikiProject Maryland
[edit]There are a few things going on right now in WikiProject Maryland that I thought all members should know about, especially the first one.
- Not too long ago, Marylandstater raised the question of exactly how many members of the project are still active. For this reason, I'm asking everyone who is still active, and wants to remain in the project, to put an asterisk (*) after their username on the project's participants list. You have until the end of November 17, 2007 to do so, sometime after that, all the names that do not have an asterisk will be removed. This is just to clean up the ever expanding list. If you've been gone and come back to find that you've been removed from the list, don't take it personally, just re-add yourself! I won't feel bad at all if no one gets removed, in fact, it would be nice if all 30 members still consider themselves active. Also, this won't affect the two subprojects, but speaking of the subprojects...
- As of sometime next week WikiProject Baltimore City College will be no more. Myself, Golem88991, and John Carter have decided to make it into a task force of WikiProject Maryland. If you have any objections, concerns, or comments, please post them in the talk page topic concerning this.
Now for the exiting news:
- I'm pleased to announce the creation of the Baltimore Task Force! Those interested in contributing to Wikipedia's numerous articles related to Maryland's largest city, now have a place to collaborate.
- I'd also like to take this time to propose a project newsletter. Any comments should be directed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Maryland#Newsletter.
A couple last things:
- The portal is in desperate need of maintenance, anyone who's interested, go check it out.
- It's probably a good idea to add the project page (and thus the project talk page) to your watchlist. That way, you can easily see when new comments are posted.
I hope you read through all that ;). Thanks to all members for your contributions to the project's articles so far, let's keep up the good work!
