Wikipedia Asian Month

[edit]

Hi Kevin. I just set up the Wikipedia Asian Month page on English Wikipedia, and want to invite you to be a organizer of this event.--AddisWang (talk) 20:50, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @AddisWang: Thanks for the invite! What sort of responsibilities does an organizer have? Sounds like a great opportunity, but I've got a lot on my plate and I'd hate to sign up for something I don't have the time to put towards! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 05:09, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
A few things, check the articles if fulfill the criteria. I will do this job as well, as well as other organizers. No need to do it until the ending of event. And also try to spread the information about the event and get more people involves. I'm not familiar with enwp and where could be great place for having more people interested.--AddisWang (talk) 05:28, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the grammar check btw, just updated those improvement on meta sample page.--AddisWang (talk) 05:33, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@AddisWang: No problem re. the copyedits. That all sounds good to me, I'll be happy to help! I've got a few places in mind to help promote the event in the meantime. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 05:37, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
👍 Like--AddisWang (talk) 05:41, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Enwp could be the only place that led controversial if use CentralNotice (Banner), I'm not sure about the such kind of policy on enwp. While we can talk about it maybe in todays workshop~--AddisWang (talk) 05:48, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@AddisWang: For sure - never really thought of the idea that other language Wikipedias would be less restrictive on central notices. We'll definitely talk about it in the workshop - until then, I'm headed to bed. Night! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 05:50, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Helping out

[edit]

Hey, I added myself as a volunteer for your fall course. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help, as this sounds pretty darn cool. Makes me wish that I was an Ohio State student, to have a Wikipedia-themed student organization nearby. But alas, I'm in Virginia and no such luck, as the closest group that does edit-a-thons is about 1-2 hours away in any given direction. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:29, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Tokyogirl79: Thanks so much! It's awesome to have some extra help when needed - I'll let our members know you're an available resource :) Things are pretty quiet for now, but we've got a few events we'll be planning for next year that I'll keep you updated on.

WikiCup 2015: The results

[edit]

WikiCup 2015 is now in the books! Congrats to our finalists and winners, and to everyone who took part in this year's competition.

This year's results were an exact replica of last year's competition. For the second year in a row, the 2015 WikiCup champion is Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points). All of his points were earned for an impressive 253 featured pictures and their associated bonus points (5060 and 1695, respectively). His entries constituted scans of currency from all over the world and scans of medallions awarded to participants of the U.S. Space program. Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions) came in second place; she earned by far the most bonus points (4082), for 4 featured articles, 15 good articles, and 147 DYKs, mostly about in her field of expertise, natural science. Belarus Cas Liber (submissions), a finalist every year since 2010, came in third, with 2379 points.

Our newcomer award, presented to the best-performing new competitor in the WikiCup, goes to United States Rationalobserver (submissions). Everyone should be very proud of the work they accomplished. We will announce our other award winners soon.

A full list of our award winners are:

We warmly invite all of you to sign up for next year's competition. Discussions and polls concerning potential rules changes are also open, and all are welcome to participate. The WikiCup judges will be back in touch over the coming months, and we hope to see you all in the 2016 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement!

1st week of WAM

[edit]

Hi

I'm very excited that Wikipedia Asian Month has many great articles already in the first ten days. To better help us understand how we are we doing on Wikipedia Asian Month, here are some small tasks:

  1. Please update the data of your Wikipedia at m:Wikipedia Asian Month/Data, it does not need to be accurate.
  2. A few Wikipedia has join the WAM, you can update it on the local page. Azerbaijani Wikipedia, Bulgarian Wikipedia, Cantonese Wikipedia, French Wikipedia, Latvian Wikipedia, Sindhi Wikipedia, Spanish Wikipedia and Vietnamese Wikipedia.
  3. Try to get some media coverage on your local medias. Report the media coverage and find resources at here.
  4. There is a user box that you can encourage participants to put on their user page. m:Template:User Asian Month‎

ArbCom elections are now open!

[edit]

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.

One Week Left!

[edit]

Hi there!

Thank you for volunteering to organize Wikipedia Asian Month - we are doing something amazing! We are expecting to have 1,000 participants improving over 1,500 articles, possibly making Wikipedia Asian Month the largest long-term edit-a-thon ever. Here are a few tasks that need to be completed at the end of the event, as well as some tips you can take to achieve greater success.
Requirements:

  1. Check all submitted articles before 15th December, 2015, and send me a data set that includes: total number of submitted articles, number of qualified articles, total number of participants, and articles selected for DYK. For the few Wikipedias that allow article expansions, please also send me the number of new articles vs. improved articles. Use this page to submit results.
  2. List all qualified organizers, up to five on each Wikipedia. Qualified organizers are ones who work actively; those who only have their name on the page or just made a few constructive edits for the event (less than, say, 5-10 edits) will not be counted. Due 20th December, 2015. Use this page to submit organizers.
  3. List all qualified editors who can receive a postcard on here at meta. Also, please determine the Wikipedia Asian Ambassador of this year. For some Wikipedias, we are also honoring the second greatest contributor as an ambassador, as long as they have created at least 30 articles. Please talk with me about these potential additional Ambassadors. Due 25th December, 2015. Use this page to submit Ambassadors.
  4. Create a local results page. A sample page will be provided soon. Due 30th December, 2015.

Tips and Extras:

  1. Place {{WAM talk 2015}} on talk pages of qualified articles to record that it was created as a part of Wikipedia Asian Month. If your Wikipedia does not have an equivalent template, make one! See this talk page example to see the template in action.
  2. Translate the message at this page. This message will be sent to all participants on your local Wikipedia to encourage their participation. Let me know when you finish the translation. For some Wikipedias that have fewer editors, you can send it by yourself.
  3. If you haven't started to check articles, try to give at least one result to each participant to let them know their contribution are qualified, or why they do not qualify.
  4. If you find out that some editors on your local Wikipedia are editing Asian Content but haven't sign up yet, send them a short invitation to ask them join. All edits made in November will be counted regardless of when the editor signed up.

Rules Clarification:

  • Since it is hard for organizers to keep the checking process very quickly, and may cause some editors who submit five articles being told one of their article does not qualified after the end November. We will still send postcards to those who submit five articles but one of those does not qualified with a minor problem. Minor problems include:
    1. Needs a few words to reach 300 words.
    2. Has a less-important issue tag.
    3. Needs to count one or two edits in the end of October or beginning of December to be qualified.

Best Wishes,
Addis Wang

WAM

[edit]

Hi there Kevin. I'm going to be direct here. I have 2 queries.

  1. How do I know that my article fulfills the requirements. (There hasn't been any review from 24 November). Is there any way I can check that?
  2. Is this in Simple English Wikipedia alive?

Thanks in advance and please, notify me/use a talkback message after you reply this.--Pratyya (Hello!) 13:33, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Notifying @Titodutta: here. --Pratyya (Hello!) 13:43, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Pratyya Ghosh: Thanks for your questions. I use Dr pda's prosesize tool to calculate page sizes and word counts. I recommend that you install it and use the tool yourself to easily see if your contributions meet WAM's requirements. It's a useful gadget to have for general use after WAM, too. As for WAM on the Simple English Wikipedia: I didn't even know that was going on! I didn't sing up as an organizer there (it looks like the page was simply copied over from the English Wikipedia), and I've removed myself from the list there. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's active there either. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 01:42, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wrap-up

[edit]

Hi there!

We made it! The first edition of Wikipedia Asian Month has successfully ended! While your efforts are still needed since the wrap up stage is another big challenge for us. I understand everyone is busy in December, I will trying to cover everything we need in this message, hopefully can make this easier.
Guideline

  1. Check all submitted articles before 15th December, 2015.
    1. When you do so, please make a category that includes all articles of WAM. My approach is using the {{WAM talk 2015}} on the talk page of all articles, and generate a category for talk page.
    2. If you already submitted result on this page, please take a look that I add another column for articles selected for DYK. It could take a while for DYK process, you can fill that column later.
    3. You don't need to provide bytes column since I'm looking for a easy way to not brother us too much.
    4. When you checking articles, if you ever find an article submitted about Bashkortostan, Russia, please list them out. Bashkortostan community would like to send a postcard to whoever create that article.
  2. List all qualified organizers, up to five on each Wikipedia. Qualified organizers are ones who work actively; those who only have their name on the page or just made a few constructive edits for the event (less than, say, 5-10 edits) will not be counted. Due 20th December, 2015. Use this page to submit organizers.
  3. As you submit the qualified participants on this page, please also use P, O and A to mark them so I can know how many postcards should they receive. P(Participant), O(Organizers), A(Ambassadors). Please review the page if you submitted already. This is due 25th December, 2015 as previously mentioned.
  4. We will make a barnstar for whoever contribute to Wikipedia Asian Month, a user box for whoever accomplish the mission, and a ribbon bar for Ambassadors. It will be distribute after we have all qualified editors.
  5. You can find me on Facebook as Addis Wang, easiest way to talk with me for any questions or need my assistance. Leaving a message on meta is another option.

Further Actions

  1. You are welcome to submit an blog post draft for Wikimedia Blog at here about Wikipedia Asian Month in your local community, a specific story is more welcomed. I will help on that, and maybe integrate stories from different communities together to make a enough length articles. So don't hesitate to submit a short paragraph.
    1. A specific story about WAM. Like how some volunteers contribute in the event makes them special.
    2. A one sentence statement from you or participants about how you feel about Wikipedia Asian Month; why you like the event; what do you think we need to improve next year
    3. A short introduction about your community if it has not been introduced yet on Wikimedia Blog. Goals, current problems, why your community special etc.
  2. Sorry for the rough pages on meta. I will make a more beautiful page for all organizers and Ambassadors to honor their great contribution for Wikipedia.
  3. Next year: Many communities show their interest to hold this event again next year. We want to plan it in advance. If you represent a Wikimedia affiliate in Asia, please considering to include around 100 U.S. dollars in your annual grant application or similar. So Wikipedians around world can have a taste on your country or region next year! A mail list will be set up and inform you in next update. We will definitely make this event easier to participant next year, and improve our tool to give a better experience for both organizers and participants.

My Best Wishes and appreciation,
Addis Wang

That IP

[edit]

Can't really do a rangeblock with the two IPs, one of which an IPv6. Do you have a list of IPs that have been used? Did we ever have an SPI, or a registered account? I don't think so but I could be wrong. If there are frequently targeted articles, we can semi-protect, of course. To put it another way, sorry, there's really nothing I can do right now; there's no point in blocking that IP. If you have more (articles, IPs), ping me and we'll see what we can do. Take it easy, Drmies (talk) 03:19, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Drmies: Thanks for the quick response! SPI investigations from months ago are here; past ANI reports (that include IPs) are here and here. I'm busy ATM with last minute school things, but I'll keep an eye out for the next few days and will see if page protections are necessary. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 03:43, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Last-minute school things? A student asked me Tuesday if he could have a conference with me about his paper, for which he had just changed topics. Tuesday was the last day of class; the paper was due the day before. Don't be that student! Drmies (talk) 04:33, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Drmies: Wow! I won't be that student. I might be working on this group project until 1:49 tomorrow when it's due at 1:50, but it will not be late, I can promise you that. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 05:02, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

WikiCup 2016 is just around the corner...

[edit]

Hello everyone, and we would like to wish you all a happy holiday season. As you will probably already know, the 2016 WikiCup begins in the new year; there is still time to sign up. There are some changes we'd like to announce before the competition begins.

After two years of serving as WikiCup judge, User:Miyagawa has stepped down as judge. He deserves great thanks and recognition for his dedication and hard work, and for providing necessary transition for a new group of judges in last year's Cup. Joining Christine (User:Figureskatingfan) and Jason (User:Sturmvogel 66) is Andrew (User:Godot13), a very successful WikiCup competitor and expert in Featured Pictures; he won the two previous competitions. This is a strong judging team, and we anticipate lots of enjoyment and good work coming from our 2016 competitors.

We would also like to announce one change in how this year's WikiCup will be run. In the spirit of sportsmanship, Godot13 and Cwmhiraeth have chosen to limit their participation. See here for the announcement and a complete explanation of why. They and the judges feel that it will make for a more exciting, enjoyable, and productive competition.

The discussions/polls concerning the next competition's rules will be closed soon, and rules changes will be made clear on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring and talk pages. The judges are committed to not repeating the confusion that occurred last year and to ensuring that the new rules are both fair and in the best interests of the competition, which is, first and foremost, about improving Wikipedia.

If you have any questions or concerns, the judges can be reached on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, on their talk pages, or by email. We hope you will all join us in trying to make the 2015 WikiCup the most productive and enjoyable yet. You are receiving this message because you are listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

WikiCup 2015 March newsletter

[edit]
One of Adam Cuerden’s several quality restorations during round 1

That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. Forty-seven competitors move into this round (a bit shy of the expected 64), and we are roughly broken into eight groups of six. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups.

Twenty-two Good Articles were submitted, including three by Connecticut Cyclonebiskit (submissions), and two each by Denmark MPJ-DK (submissions), Zanzibar Hurricanehink (submissions), Florida 12george1 (submissions), and New South Wales Cas Liber (submissions). Twenty-one Featured Pictures were claimed, including 17 by There's always time for skeletons Adam Cuerden (submissions) (the Round 1 high scorer). Thirty-one contestants saw their DYKs appear on the main page, with a commanding lead (28) by Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions). Twenty-nine participants conducted GA reviews with Lancashire J Milburn (submissions) completing nine.

If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Thanks to everyone for participating, and good luck to those moving into round 2.

Speedy deletion nomination of Milgram obedience study

[edit]

Hello SuperHamster,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Milgram obedience study for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. Take a look at our suggestions for essential content in short articles to learn what should be included.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Vinod 08:59, 31 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Vinodtiwari2608: The page I created was a valid redirect to another article. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 09:01, 31 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
