Sorry[edit]I would use your "Wierd" userbox, because I am weird, but since you misspelled it I can't. Please fix it, or if the error was intentional, please make and release to the public a version with "weird" spelled correctly. WikiSquirrel42 (talk) 22:22, 12 June 2017 (UTC) Outline of Quebec[edit]Thank you for the work you did on the military section. Nice job. I was wondering if you would be interested in helping to finish up and refine the outline. The things left to do include:
Any help you could provide would be most appreciated. The Transhumanist 22:20, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
I noticed you are a participant of the WikiProject Quebec. The Outline of Quebec was created a few days ago and is under vigorous development. It fills a gap in Wikipedia's set of outlines. It is the 3rd outline to date about a Canadian province/territory.
Outlines form one of the subsystems of Wikipedia's contents navigation system. For more information on outlines, see Wikipedia:Outlines and Wikipedia:WikiProject Outlines. The goals for the Outline of Quebec is to complete it to as high a standard of quality as possible, and to make it even better than the Outline of Saskatchewan and the Outline of British Columbia. Once the Outline of Quebec is completed, it will provide an important example to others creating outlines for the remaining provinces and territories of Canada. Please take a look at the outline to see if you can notice (and fill in) any missing topics. Pictures would also be nice (the rarer and the more interesting, the better). Thank you. Sincerely, The Transhumanist 10:38, 24 June 2011 (UTC) P.S.: Offiikart, above is the request I sent to everybody in the Quebec WikiProject. I thought you might like to read it. I hope they will join in and help.
Welcome to the Outlines WikiProject![edit]Offiikart, I'm glad you've joined up. The project's goal is to build an outline for every major subject, while maintaining and improving those that already exist. This is a big undertaking. But the benefits will be worth it. The outline system has the potential to become the best knowledge navigation tool in the world. Searches can take you only so far. A comprehensive map or table of contents of knowledge (which is what the outline system is when you hook all the outlines together) shows that which searches miss. It's a wide-open territory, man. Since it is still in its infancy, we have the privilege of defining this thing. The core that we are developing will become the model that future participants shall base their work on. So let's improve it so that it is ready when it achieves critical mass! I look forward to working with you. Sincerely, The Transhumanist 09:21, 29 June 2011 (UTC) P.S.: Now that you are a member, I've included on our notification list, and have posted your first notification below... Danger: alert page unnoticed[edit]The Outline of relationships was nominated for deletion. It was then overhauled and the nomination was withdrawn. Only a couple members from the Outlines WikiProject showed up at the AfD. Do you have Wikipedia:WikiProject Outlines/Article alerts watchlisted? If not, please watchlist it. Thank you. The Transhumanist 09:28, 29 June 2011 (UTC) Makes me want to visit Quebec[edit]The way the Outline of Quebec is developing is excellent. Thank you very much. Here's the comparison diff: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Outline_of_Quebec&action=historysubmit&diff=436794556&oldid=435566319 I don't give away barnstars very often, just so you know, you really deserve this...
P.S.: remember to add Wikipedia:WikiProject Outlines/Article alerts to your watchlist. Salut, Ne t'en fait pas trop avec la liste des réservoirs et barrages. Utilise plutôt List of electrical generating stations in Quebec qui est complète et sourcée. Pour ce qui est de la section Energy de l'article Quebec, je l'ai arrangée le mois dernier. Je vais aller ajouter quelques détails dans cette section d'ici peu, mais si ton objectif est le GA, il faut se rappeler que les anglos préfèrent les articles plus courts que ce qu'on a sur fr. Alors, limitons la taille des sections (d'ailleurs l'article Québec est beaucoup trop long...)... Pour aller plus loin, il faudrait créer Energy in Quebec, mais ça, ça veut dire qu'il me faudra d'abord réviser mon article Énergie au Québec pour ensuite le traduire en anglais. Grosse job, surtout que je suis présentement sur Projet de la Baie-James et tous les articles reliés (et éventuellement une version anglaise). Enfin, je suis très content de savoir qu'on a un autre Québécois qui est prêt à travailler sur le thème Québec dans la WP en anglais. N'hésites pas à me contacter pour un petit coup de main.

GA failed[edit]Je ne suis pas surpris outre mesure. Effectivement, les citations sont incomplètes en plus de ne pas être formatées correctement. Personnellement, j'aime bien {{harvnb}} et les cite book {{cite article}} {{cite news}} et {{cite web}}. Ça prend un peu de temps à s'habituer, mais c'est plus efficace et les reviewers aiment ça... Je peux aller formater quelques dizaines de références pour toi si ça te va, question de te partir. Pour ce qui est de l'écriture de la section "History" par contre ça pose le problème de l'historiographie anglophone vs francophone. Je suis un peu équipé en français, mais je n'ai rien en anglais.

Signature[edit]Hello Offiikart! I've noticed that your signature includes the Quebec flag. Per WP:SIG, images aren't allowed in signatures; would you mind not including it in the future? Thanks, Nikkimaria (talk) 13:20, 6 July 2011 (UTC) Long time no see. I am very glad to see you are still active on Wikipedia. I was wondering if I could talk you into adopting Outline of Quebec as your maintenance and development project. Wikipedia's coverage of Quebec changes and grows, and the outline needs to be updated over time to keep up with it. Also, the outline is a work-in-progress (incomplete), and there is much room for improvement (such as adding missing links, pictures, etc.) For picture support, compare with Outline of Iceland, Outline of France, and Outline of Japan. Will you add Outline of Quebec to your watchlist and drop in on it from time to time to refine and maintain it? I believe you are the perfect person to care for Quebec's outline. I look forward to your reply. The Transhumanist 18:41, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
ps. I saw the newest proposal for deletion of outlines and I went trough it. As always, I like pretty much the professionalism you show and the patience you have. Your writing skills are much appreciated to defend that important cause. I gave my vote (opposed) and refered to your comments as an explanation, is that ok for you? --OffiikartTalk 20:34, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
What about Roman Catholicism in Quebec? Does that get specific enough? (By the way, I adjusted the tree just a little). The Transhumanist 01:00, 6 October 2011 (UTC) Mystery[edit]Please solve this mystery if you can... On September 23rd, traffic to Portal:James Bond doubled, and has stayed at the new level since then. I can't figure out what happened. See http://stats.grok.se/en/201109/Portal%3AJames_Bond Traffic to Outline of James Bond stayed the same (though it was at the higher-level already), which leads me to suspect changes made somewhere in Wikipedia. See http://stats.grok.se/en/201109/Outline%20of%20James_Bond I'd like to find out what happened, in case it reveals helpful link placement tips that can double the traffic to outlines too! I look forward to your reply. The Transhumanist 22:39, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
Please help fill in annotations at Portal:Contents/Outlines[edit]Please go to Portal:Contents/Outlines' and fill in as many missing annotations as you can, even if it's only one or two. Every little bit helps! The annotating of the entries on Portal:Contents/Outlines is nearing completion. Annotated entries look like this:
Entries needing annotations look like this:
The links to the country outlines don't need annotations (they are listed by region). Even if all you can do is one or two, the support will be greatly felt. Many hands make light work. Thank you. The Transhumanist 00:32, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:02, 15 February 2013 (UTC) Hunting for embedded outlines[edit]I'm looking for outlines embedded in articles. I've run across a number of these over the years. One example is the Outline of fencing, which used to be part of the fencing article. If you know about or spot any structured general topics lists in articles, please let me know (on my talk page). Another thing you might find are articles that are comprised mostly of lists (without "Outline of" or "List of" being in the article's title). If you come across any of these, please report them to me on my talk page. I'd sure like to take a look at them. Happy hunting. I look forward to "hearing" from you (on my talk page).

The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created. Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work. Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying.

If you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Canada like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1600 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for Canada but fuelled by a contest such as The North America Destubathon to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. I would like some support from Canadian wikipedians here to get the Challenge off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile! Cheers. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:55, 22 November 2016 (UTC) Hi. We're into the last five days of the Women in Red World Contest.
