Hi there, I'm LiAnna Davis, the communications associate for the Wikimedia Foundation's new Public Policy Initiative. We are currently looking for dedicated Wikipedians near the George Washington University and Georgetown University areas to serve as Campus Ambassadors, and I hope you might be interested.

Volunteer Campus Ambassadors will provide face-to-face training and support for professors and students on Wikipedia-related skills, such as how to create new articles, how to add images, how the talk pages work, etc. If you're especially enthusiastic and know people on campus, you can set up Wikipedia-related student groups and organize "Welcome to Wikipedia" social events.

More details about the Wikipedia Campus Ambassador role can be found at http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Campus_Ambassador.

The estimated time commitment for this role is 3-5 hours a week, possibly slightly more at the very beginning and very end of the semester. The Wikimedia Foundation will hold a mandatory three-day training for all Campus Ambassadors in August, and will continue to stay in contact with and offer full support for the Campus Ambassadors throughout the academic semester.

Please let us know if this is something that sounds interesting to you or if you know of any other Wikipedians near George Washington or Georgetown who could help out. Feel free to respond on Annie Lin's talk page or email her at [email protected] (Annie is our Campus Team Coordinator).--Ldavis (Public Policy) (talk) 21:43, 8 July 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-07-08T21:43:00.000Z","author":"Ldavis (Public Policy)","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Ldavis_(Public_Policy)-2010-07-08T21:43:00.000Z-Wikipedia_Campus_Ambassador?","replies":[]}}-->

Hi, Over at Talk:Aldeadávila Dam you said "115,000,000 cubic metres (or 115 km3)". In fact, it would need to be 115,000,000,000 m3 before it becomes 115 km3.

It took me four days to find the cites requested. I added them to the article. But, due to the newly-restrictive DYK nominations rule about auto-deleting noms more than eight days old to which discussions "have gone stale," the DYK nom has been deleted. I didn't think that four days was too long to respond, but I guess it was (even though my hook was only eight days old). Now all that work is useless and lost. - Tim1965 (talk) 02:50, 25 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-25T02:50:00.000Z","author":"Tim1965","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Tim1965-2010-10-25T02:50:00.000Z-Allen3-2010-10-20T16:42:00.000Z","replies":["c-Allen3-2010-10-25T13:05:00.000Z-Tim1965-2010-10-25T02:50:00.000Z"]}}-->

In the future please consider the information available to those who perform those work needed to promote hooks and maintain the DYK system. From that perspective, an issue had been noted with the nomination and a notification had been left on your talk page. Additionally, your edit history showed activity during the following days, meaning you were assumed to have seen the notification, and yet there was no comment to either the nomination of edits to the article. Based upon this situation, how could a DYK worker tell that this nomination had not been abandoned? Even a short note to the nomination that you were in the process of securing additional sources would have probably bought you additional time by allowing reviewers to know that something was happening.

All this being said, I have taken advantage of the shrinking backlog to schedule the hook. --Allen3 ^talk 13:05, 25 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-25T13:05:00.000Z","author":"Allen3","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Allen3-2010-10-25T13:05:00.000Z-Tim1965-2010-10-25T02:50:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

• I love Halloween! I contributed last year, too. This year's process seemed...disorganized and under the control of individuals not participating. Although the Hallowween DYKs are often written in the same vein as the April Fool's DYKs, several individuals held up DYK noms by raising (what are to my mind) penny-ante quibbles about phrasing. Several noms were held up because non-participants believed the noms should be strictly about Halloween (not topics associated with Halloween), while some noms were held up because they were not international enough. Neither is a DYK criteria, but noms stayed unapproved for a month because of it. Although the goal of the Halloween DYK participants has been to fill up all the DYK submissions for the entire day (much as others do for Christmas, New Year's, April Fool's, etc.), there were several editors who challenged that idea and argued that only a few DYK noms should be accepted. It got to be a very unhappy process at the end. But, I think all the approved noms are excellent, and everyone who submitted articles and helped organize the day's DYKs did fantastic work! - Tim1965 (talk) 13:56, 27 October 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-10-27T13:56:00.000Z","author":"Tim1965","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Tim1965-2010-10-27T13:56:00.000Z-Rlevse-2010-10-27T09:35:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you're listed as a member of WikiProject Montana. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at Montana State University - Bozeman, which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester. The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).

I know Montana is a big state, but if you happen to live near Bozeman and you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone else from Bozeman who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 21:38, 3 December 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-12-03T21:38:00.000Z","author":"Sross (Public Policy)","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Sross_(Public_Policy)-2010-12-03T21:38:00.000Z-Wikipedia_Campus_Ambassadors_wanted_in_Bozeman,_Montana","replies":["c-Tim1965-2010-12-03T21:41:00.000Z-Sross_(Public_Policy)-2010-12-03T21:38:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation"}}-->

Thank you. I thought as much. How would you feel about me pulling this project and its articles into the scope of WikiProject United States? Basically this would encompass the following things:

1. I would leave the project page and talk page and everything in tact
2. I would add District of Columbia as a Project within the scope of United States (this just means I would add District of Columbia to {{WikiProject United States}})
3. I would replace the District of Columbia with the WPUS/DC banner (thereby adding it to the WPUS scope)
4. I would go through and tag what appears to be about 22000 articles relating to DC that doesnt currently carry that tag.

That way the project are actively covered by an active project.

• I think that's entirely appropriate. (And a heck of a lot of work!) Let's say that an existing project member, however, wanted to try to revive the project. (Not me, but someone.) Would there be a process for notifying existing project members about the proposed change, a deadline for reviving the project, and criteria for what would constitute a revived project that would make the proposed change moot?

Thanks and your right it is a fair amount of work but there's no rush so I figure I could have the 5000ish currently marked for the DC project done in the next week or so and the other 20K over the next month or so If I don't do it as a bot task (which I would probably try and do as a bot task). Theres not really any criteria and Im not sure there needs to be. I still plan on keeping the project page (at least for now) so other than being in the same banner they can pretty much just start editing and go IMO. I would say that if they want to break away completely there should be enough members to sustain it but thats just my opinion. --Kumioko (talk) 01:42, 4 December 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-12-04T01:42:00.000Z","author":"Kumioko","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Kumioko-2010-12-04T01:42:00.000Z-Kumioko-2010-12-03T21:42:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I received a message from you concerning edits I made to the Henry Clay Frick article (over the summer, I believe). I cleaned up some grammar and mechanics and did make one change concerning the section on his alleged relationship to the Johnstown flood. Your message indicated that my edits were "vandalism" and as such had been reverted. Perhaps I do not understand, but I read the wiki link you provided to the article on vandalism and do not see how any of my edits constitute vandalism. In fact, they are in the "what is not vandalism" section. I am not trying to start a picky war with you over language--I earnestly want to know why what I did was vandalism, if it was so, so I can avoid doing so in the future.

• The only edit of yours which I reverted on that page was this one dated August 18, 2010. You removed the portion of the sentence which said Berkman conspired with Goldman. That is a substantial change to the tone of the article; absent a citation, that change should not have been made. It too easily can be seen as vandalism (as noted in my comment on your anonymous IP Talk page). In the case of conflicting evidence published by neutral third parties, the conflicting evidence should be noted (and cited) in the article and the relevant claims mentioned. Since you are not using an account on Wikipedia, you may also be editing under other IP addresses. If so, you will need to identify those other IP addresses for me.

I would normally tidy refs, as I usually do, but I don't understand referencing there. (i) ref name="Fucini201" and ref name="Fucini10" point to the same page, should they be combined or ref name="Fucini201" actually meant p. 201? (ii) why Bibliography duplicates notes? The idea of notes is to have multiple references to a single source via a shortname (e.g. Franklin, 2002, p. 93. - though even the year could be dropped as there is no other source by Franklin).

• No, that's a typo of mine. One Fucini reference is to page 10, another to page 201. In the one to page 201, I typed "10" rather than "201", creating duplicate citations. As far as footnotes duplicating bibliographic sources, I don't believe that is occurring. Perhaps the issue is one of style: I've been following the Chicago Manual of Style (13th ed.). The Chicago Manual of Style defines two ways of using shortened footnotes: One includes the author's last name, short title of the work, and page number. The other, used primarily in scholarly texts (which Wikipedia is not), uses only the author's last name and page number (including short title only when more than one work by an author of the same last name is used). CSM has a slightly more complex rule for newspaper footnotes, which differs from the general rule: A footnote citing a newspaper or periodical requires author last name, article name, periodical or newspaper name, and date of publication in footnote. The slightly more complete citation occurs in the bibliography. This may appear duplicative, but it is not according to CSM. - Tim1965 (talk) 19:59, 17 December 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-12-17T19:59:00.000Z","author":"Tim1965","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Tim1965-2010-12-17T19:59:00.000Z-Materialscientist-2010-12-16T09:33:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Well, per CSM it might not be a duplication, but direct comparison tells it is (only author name is shortened in newspapers, the rest is copied) :-) So I would use common sense; and in any case, wikipedia does not have to (and often does not) follow external formatting guides.

Well, you're the major author of the article, so according to WP:CITE that probably gives you the right to determine the reference style. I've never contributed to the article before, so I decided to ask before I implement the change. —bender235 (talk) 11:37, 29 December 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-12-29T11:37:00.000Z","author":"Bender235","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Bender235-2010-12-29T11:37:00.000Z-Tim1965-2010-12-29T02:16:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
