Core topics
[edit]Hi Randy,
I noticed that you signed up for the Core Topics project. I was wondering if you could help us out - there is a lot to do there at the moment. We are currently re-assessing the main core topics table, and as we do this we add the core topic template containing the assessment to the talk page, as in {{Core topic|class=B}} (see Talk:Animal for an example). We are also in the process of looking at a supplementary list, these articles also need evaluations. We are going to open up WP:V0.5 for nominations in a week or two, and I'd like to include a lot of the Core topics very early on. Would you be able to help out? Thanks, Walkerma 05:56, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

how am I vandalising?
[edit]All I did was put in a bit of trivia in the trivia section, not nonsense, so how is that considered vandalisim.
Spelt is a perfectly good variation of the verb spell spelled in fact sounds a little funny. Williamb 00:49, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Vandalism on the Will Smith page?
[edit]I find that you consider changing 2 letters on a page vandalism. Not only is "Aw hell, naw" lead to a re-direct to Will Smitth, that is the the exact verbal line spoken by Will Smith on numorous occassions, including "I, Robot", among others. I find that it is a more accurate description of his catchphrase.
To do what you did is not only petty and foolish, it's downright...stupid.
Concordia newsletter
[edit]
Concordia Newsletter
Community Justice is no more. It has been reformed to Concordia. Membership has been transferred.
Concordia is an organization of editors on Wikipedia that strive to encourage civility and fair treatment among all editors in the Wikipedian community, from the Wikignome to the Wikiholic. The project was designed to have a friendly and helpful environment to support any unfortunate Wikipedians that have become victims of incivility, hostility, or continual disrespect.
We currently need help in getting going, and making the community understand our aims. We work for civility. Nothing more, nothing less.
If you have ideas, let us know at our talk page, or on the IRC channel. We aim to spread civility in every way we can.
Should you wish to unsubscribe to future newsletters, please add your name to Wikipedia:Concordia/Do Not Spam.
Thank you for your time. If you need anything, feel free to comment at WT:CCD or come into our IRC channel [1].

Cleanup taskforce
[edit]Thanks for your notice. Could you unsubscribe me from Cleanup Taskforce? I don't know where it is any more and it's over a year since I was involved. --Tony Sidaway 21:07, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Cleanup Taskforce
[edit]I'm not sure why I got the boilerplate message. I have two articles listed and both are listed as done and tagged as such in the articles too. BTW, I've got a bunch of activity confirmations on my desk, which I think belong somewhere else. Perhaps they somehow got transcluded. Will look into that now. - Mgm|(talk) 08:15, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
- Aha! {{Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce/Are you active?}} was stuck somewhere halfway on my desk. I've moved it to the bottom to make sure my current/done/moved structure of the desk stays intact.

Smile
[edit]
SilkTork has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Smile to others by adding {{subst:smile}}, {{subst:smile2}} or {{subst:smile3}} to their talk page with a friendly message. Happy editing!
Nice idea. Here's grinning at yah, kid! SilkTork 16:30, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
Vandalism
[edit]I never vandalised any pages, and don't know what you are talking about. I did, however, correct some errors, mostly orthographic, on several pages. Is that what you are taling about? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.164.100.8 (talk • contribs)
- Your IP address is responsible for blanking large amounts of content [2]. That is considered vandalism. IrishGuy talk 22:43, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update
[edit]As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.
As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.
Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Signpost story on High Court of England and Wales
[edit]Is it OK if I draft a story and you give it a check? I haven't written for the Signpost before but I would like to have a go myself over the weekend. David | Talk 23:27, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Music Samples
[edit]Hi, I see you've responded to the straw poll at Wikipedia_talk:Music_samples. Since your vote, there has been some further discussion here, and I've suggested a slight amendment to the proposed guideline. I'd really appreciate your feedback on the subject. Thanks! --Wine Guy Talk 20:19, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Tip of the day project update
[edit]Just trying to get things better organized around there. Toward that end, I've created a task list template for the project. If all the contributors to the project placed it on their user page, we could all keep in touch more easily (with announcements, alerts, etc.). It, and the latest announcements can be found at:

- I'm not sure how I would send a properly formatted e-mail to users, so I haven't done that. Unless it just involves sending them a link to Signpost page? - RoyBoy 800 05:08, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
