Disambiguation link notification for July 3
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Ghost and the Darkness, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Patterson. 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.

Tildes
[edit]Hi, Terry Thorgaard! Thanks for your edit to correct that typo on Spanish Hill. It just wanted to leave you a note to let you know that you don't need to use the four tildes (~~~~) in your edit summaries. Those are only meant to be used on talk pages, because they're automatically converted to your signature when used there. When used in edit summaries, the markup doesn't work and they just remain tildes. Anyway, thanks again for your helpful edits!-RHM22 (talk) 15:56, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia-integrated academic journal
[edit]Hi,
I'm messaging to ask whether you might be interested in being an editor for the WikiJournal of Humanities (www.WikiJHum.org)? It's a journal modelled on the successful Wikipedia-integrated medical journal (www.WikiJMed.org). The editorial board is covers a range of fields and expertise in the Humanities, arts and social sciences.
It couples the rigour of academic peer review with the extreme reach of the encyclopedia. It is therefore an excellent way to achieve public engagement, outreach and impact public understanding of science (articles often get >100,000 views per year).
Peer-reviewed articles are dual-published both as standard academic PDFs, as well as directly into Wikipedia. This improves the accuracy of the encyclopedia, and rewards academics,experts and professionals with citable, indexed publications. It also provides much greater reach than is normally achieved through traditional scholarly publishing.
Based on my experiences, time commitment is pretty flexible. An editor would generally devote 2-10 hours per month to inviting suitable submissions and organise their external peer review:
- Identify fully missing Wikipedia topics and invite academics to write broad review articles on them (e.g. this)
- Identify important, but poorly covered topics and invite experts to update or overhaul them (e.g. this)
- Invite authors of good Wikipedia pages to put their articles through external peer review (like this)
- Possibly implement some figure or gallery review articles (e.g this and this)
Hopefully it will help to get experts, academics and professionals to contribute content to the encyclopedia via a more familiar and cv-rewarding academic journal format.
Anyway, let me know if it's the sort of thing that might interest you. PS. A relevant article in Science.

Imam Shafi Islamic Academy
[edit]Imam Shafi Islamic Academy is a multiple Educational Institution at Kumbla, Kasaragod district, northern end of Kerala state, run by Imam Shafi Islamic Academy council beneath the honorable footsteps of Venerable M.A Kasim Musliyar, the scholar and reformer of minority Muslims in the region. The institution stepped out its expedition on 25 June 2008 in the 3 acre land of Mogral Village as part of our eagerness and willingness to light even a lantern in the obscurity and sleepy space of the community, with empty hands and plenty hearts. 42.106.181.193 (talk) 19:00, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
