Thanks for having a look at my Joel Clinton page. I have implemented the changes you recommended, and am planning on uploading some images in a few hours.
I would appreciate if you took a look at the page in a few days, perhaps it is now worthy of a B-Class rating?

About the Russia WikiProject "WikiProject Russia, an attempt to build a comprehensive and detailed guide to articles on Russia on Wikipedia.". Doesn't really fit it as it basicly has nothing do with Russia (or Soviet Union that matter). It's already part of Russian military project (due to the few russian troops). I don't want any fight, but well, seeing a Russian flag first in the talk page (as well it's the biggest template) makes me confused, Russia? Also, it's in category russia (after many many other categories inside them), due to the fact it can be classified as part of Russian Revolution (or what you want to call it, bolshevik revolution), but isn't part of any Russian conflict itself. -- Pudeo ( Talk) 20:40, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Ah, what a mess. Some thoughts, in no particular order:

Good, and I put the small option to the template. (See Finnish Civil War talk page). It seems it works, though I thought it doesn't because the text differs from the big version. But that's just better, I guess. And sorry for the earlier. -- Pudeo ( Talk) 16:23, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Many thanks for putting the article forward for Good Article status, which it has now passed. I'd rather not see it put up for Featured Article yetâeven though it might well passâbecause I am busy with another article at the moment, which I hope to put up for Featured Article in the next week or two, and also because I still have half a Chekhov biography to read and also his Notebooks, both of which should provide me with the details to make the article pretty much complete.
May I take this opportunity to wholeheartedly apologise for any snappiness I may have fired off in your direction late last year, when I see now that I misunderstood what you were doing. All the best. qp10qp 09:10, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
You are quite right; I made a mistake. I had never moved a page before, and I did this, when I was supposed to do this. As for the blurb about Bromfield being selected--it seemed a bit of unnecessary detail, but I will put it back. Vidor 22:55, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Looks like you got the edit histories merged; thank you for the correction. I have a question which you might be able to answer. There seems to be some uncertainty as to whether the tenth book in the Fandorin series should be titled "The Diamond Chariot" or "The Diamond Vehicle". Looks like Dbachmann changed it to "Vehicle" on the Fandorin page. I don't speak Russian, but online translators are telling me that "ÐолеÑниÑа" translates out to "chariot". Can you shed any light on this? I know that "Diamond Chariot" certainly sounds much better in English. Vidor 15:33, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

I think I was the one who originally assigned an importance rating to those articles without realizing I shouldn't do it. Since I have done much of the revision and rewriting on those articles, I decided it would be most appropriate for someone else to assign the importance rating, which is why I blanked them.-- Bookworm857158367 04:42, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of unassessed articles tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! -- Ozgod 20:28, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

You've rated Andre Rouvoet, Bart Jan Spruyt and Bas de Gaay Fortman as stubs. But these are all longer articles, written on basis of reliable sources. They may not all have pictures or full references, but I guarantee you this about the maximum length these articles will have for a long time. I see no good reason to rate them as stubs. Therefore I've rated them as starts instead. C mon 11:10, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for helping out with the Biography assessment drive. Good news. Outriggr recently designed a script that will cut your biography assessment time down by about ten fold (what took ten hours now may only take one hour with Outriggr's script).

Hello, thank you for rating the Bolo Zenden article, which is an article which I've tried to work on (alongside several other editors, of course). I am very keen to see the article improved, and would like to get it back on track for a good article nomination (it failed the last one, although since then many things have been improved, albeit with a couple of things made a little worse, including the early life section). I was wondering if you might have any ideas as to how the article might be improved further? Robotforaday 15:40, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I just registered tonight after considering posting the text of Constitution of the Russian Federation. After realizing that generally Wikipedia does not include entire the text of such documents I declined to do so. I did however, note the great amount of information and analysis of the constitution of other nations and wondered why there is so little information about the Russian Const. Currently only the preamble is quoted and links to the specific sections are given (but these are dead links)the only other facts pertain to the ratification, etc. I'm coming here to ask approval to add information to the sections and if possible seek help, and information on the proper format. I haven't yet figured out how to message users, so if this is read you may contact me at email address removed. Thanks and I look forward to posting here and elsewhere on Wikipedia. âThe preceding unsigned comment was added by HunterSGuthrie ( talk ⢠contribs) 02:35, 19 March 2007 (UTC).

We've done great work so far on the WikiProject Biography Spring 2007 Assessment Drive, reducing the 135,345 backlog by 38,626 to 96,719 as of March 20, 2007. We have only 6,720 more to go to get below 90,000. That would be outstanding and any extra effort that you can offer in these last few days of the drive (which ends March 24, 2007) would be much appreciated. If you haven't already, you may want to load Outriggr's assessment script in your monobook.js. If you have any questions, please feel free to post them on my talk page. -- Jreferee 23:14, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
No problem! But I suggest you take a look at the B-Class criteria of the WP:MILHIST and of the WP:GREECE for instance. This article has: a) a bad structure, b) inadequate inline citations, c) inadequate covering of some issues, such as biography. As an editor who constantly tries to improve this article and has rewritten parts of it, I'm definite it is a start-class. You regard start rating as silly; I regard B-Class rating as silly. Oh! And by the way, I have assessed many many article in the BIO project, when nobody was doing the job there.-- Yannismarou 10:23, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
There is really nothing to restore. The only thing that was there when I deleted it was a redirect to one of the other pages that this had been moved to (Robert I. Coulter if I remember correctly) and there was no history... which is why I deleted; it was a redirect from a talkpage for an existing article to a talkpage for a deleted article.-- Isotope23 11:43, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
So noted. Sorry for my actions. I'm not entirely sure what my motivation in doing so was at this point (I think I may have been adding all the relevant banners to the Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/VA tagging articles at the time), and probably did make more than a few mistakes. Again, my apologies. John Carter 13:31, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I noticed you rated this as "B class at best", which indicates:
This article has had considerable detailed attention to address any problems, and I can't see where it fails in the above criteria. Any pointers you could give (on the article talk page) would be appreciated. Tyrenius 04:22, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

I didn't remove them out of spite or anything, I saw that there already was a WP Russian history banner, and since the articles concerned history, that it would make things simpler - in that case why have a seperate WPRussian history? Might merge it with WPRussia in that case.. I also put in other relevant templates, just like I do with hundreds of articles - but I have been seeing both WPRussia and WPRussian history banner together in many articles, and I think that it is weird honestly. If every Russian history article is going to have a WPRussia banner, merge them (just like WPHistory of Greece was merged with WPGreece a couple of weeks ago). Otherwise they crowd up the place. I am not going to revert you or anything however.. cheers Baristarim 19:53, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Thank You. Just one more question, well, two more perhaps. Would those other pages remain and continue to be redirected to the correct page? What is the best method to create uniformity across the various foreign language wiki's. When someone else translated the article into Italian and put it on the it.wikipedia.org site it ended up in massive edit war and the guy got banned.
And one more thing, how does one improve the rating of a page? baie dankie (Afrikaans for Thank You very much) JoeSanchez 07:02, 10 April 2007 (UTC)JoeSanchez
So wikipedia has no standard that determines whether the contents of the same article are the same across different language wiki's (i.e the french article on Mozart can be totally different from the russian version.)

I'm perfectly aware of how to move pages (check my contributions earlier today) but very occasionally you get a page that won't move over the redirect for some unknown reason so you have to do it manually. Today I made 19 moves; 18 went fine but one ( Spanish general election, 2000) would not go, so I had to do a copy and paste job (as I had to a few days earlier with Dudu Awat).

Don't worry, you didn't "hurt my feelings", because I havent written or edited any of the article. Though you probably haven't noted it yet, I'm a fairly experienced assessor that took part on the recent drive and replied yesterday to your proposal on the /Assessment talk subpage of WikiProject Biography. Really though, I think your sudden demotion of half the A-class articles is a bit quick, especially as there seems to have been almost no discussion on the matter of A-Class reviews and criteria which appear to have been set solely by yourself.

I changed the end time in your RfA because although you saved the form at 02:43, it wasn't transcluded onto the main RfA page until 02:46, which is the time the discussion begins, I know it's only a couple of minutes but it's best to be professional about these things (I went through everyones and there was only 2 that had the correct end time!).

Setting various issues aside, please note that you started the issue with your comment about "Polish nationalist movement", which many found unconstructive and offensive. That I overreacted may be the case, however it is you who should start with an apology (not to me but to all Polish editors of Wikipedia). If such an apology is issued, you can be sure I would apologize for any offence my comment might have caused, and this issue would certainly not resurface itself in your next RfA. On the latter subject, please note that I doubt this issue will resurface itself in your next RfA anyway (assuming it will take place in 6 months or later); unlike some people here I believe that "time makes right", and since I have not been aware of any other such unhelpful comments you have made since than, I am certainly prepared to forget about this single instance (for forgivness, however, one should find the strengh to apologize first). PS. I did not threaten you with ArbCom. I noted that it was repeated comments like this one - hundreds of them - that got Ghirla into trouble, and if you make a rule of them rather than exception - you will be in his place. Fortunatly we can all see it was an exception :) -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 17:40, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Errabee Thanks for reassessing David Miliband and the positive comments. Tom 14:55, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
This image doesnt have any copyright. i have taken this image from my own personal collection.i got it from the family of the legend himself.I have got the permission from them. this image is widely used in various and entirely different newspapers, magazines, books and also in goverment publications.since he is quite famous in Kerala i think we can use it safely.

Just to let you know, another bio project assessor gave it the A rating back in early March [5]. But certainly I'll look into what an A rating requires if more is needed. Daniel Case 12:39, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
In a project as large as WPBIO, I can certainly understand the need to cut down on excessive A-ratings (it's a very nebulous boundary, especially with GA-class available through a more defined procedure). I have looked over the A-class system you've established and will likely be submitting for it. Maybe that's a model we should start using across the project.
I'm keeping it for fashion (if you saw our project (I have assessed most of the articles in it), you'd understand how at the top of the curve that article is) and journalism for now, though. Daniel Case 13:55, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

When Plange left the Biography project, one of its driving forces was gone, leaving maybe the biggest project out there without one of it's rudders. You took on the task of trying to continue part of the staggering amount of work involved, and have to date done an extraordinary job. Thank you for all your work to date, and I hope that you continue to find the Biography project a meaningful and valuable use of your editing time. The project is certainly much better for your regular and dependable contributions. John Carter 17:05, 18 May 2007 (UTC) |
I've worried long about this one. Do I tell you, and run the risk that some will say "but there was canvassing in favour of him too". Or do I keep my mouth shut and have people complain to you that people are discussing you behind your back. Well, now it seems the request will be denied anyway and point one is rather moot: I talked about you at [6]. Keep up the good work! -- Pan Gerwazy 18:27, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

I thought about adding this to workshop but I am not familiar enough with ArbCom to know it is the best choice. Could you elaborate on why I should do this, and perhaps give me some examples of similar worship motions by parties?-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 18:06, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Have you looked at the evidence I provided?-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 17:57, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
I see Piotrus is baiting again? Or do you think Ghirla won't see this? Shame! -- Irpen 17:18, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Halibutt's incivility has never been proven. Ghirla's has been by ArbCom. That said, I have no problems with Ghirla this year and hope it will not change; please don't bait him into changing his reformed behaviour. This is all I have to say about it. EOT.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 18:06, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi Errabee. I'd like to thank you for your support of my RfA. It was closed at surprising 75/0/0, so I'm an admin now. MaxSem 22:00, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for taking the time to evaluate the article. I definitely be taking your suggestions into consideration. Noble Story 07:01, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
I've restored the talk page. Sorry that I didn't catch the earlier revisions of the article. I'll be more careful in the future. Joyous! | Talk 12:01, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
I greatly appreciate the speedy response in regards to the A-class rating for William March. As requested, I have changed the image in question to the appropriate licensing and provided an apt (hopefully correct) rationale. Concerning your second point, I changed the reference format to a new one. The old format listed the page number of the citation, which confused me in regards to your request. Hopefully the changes I made were what you had in mind, if you get some time, tell me if it's close.
Cheers!

For the work you have done keeping the Biography WikiProject effective and a working entity, particularly with the departure of one of it's mainstays, I think you more than deserve a little recognition. John Carter 01:32, 5 June 2007 (UTC) |

Hi, as you nominated the article, I'm afraid that I have failed it at this time. I have left what are hopefully extensive comments at the talk page of the article. I think it can get up to GA status, but there are some tone, POV, and copyediting issues at the moment that I don't believe can be resolved in the "On Hold" timeframe. Any questions, please put them on my talk page -- Fritzpoll 22:19, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for leaving the note. I did not notice this at first. I only realized it yesterday, when I did make a GA rating, then changed it back to B. I apologize for not noticing this at first. Again, thanks for bringing this to my attention. ludahai é¯å¤§æµ· 23:13, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks... | ||
Thank you for showing your support in my recent RfA. Unfortunately, consensus was not really going my way, so I decided to withdraw my self-nomination last night. The final vote tally was (15/7/10). Your support does mean a lot to me, and I will certainly let you know when I go for my next RfA, most likely in a few month's time. Thank you again, and happy editing! Hersfold ( talk/ work) 17:56, 8 June 2007 (UTC) |
Tux knows that some people accidentally or purposely assess articles as FA, A, or GA without proper review. He is very happy that someone goes through all those big logs to help Wikipedia. He wants to help too!
On a serious note, good job on going through the logs. Make sure to let me know if the, leaders of the race, are assessing articles wrongly too often.</serious>
Have fun with Tux!

Could your peer review/A-Class review this article. It would be much appreciated.
Thanks. SpecialWindler talk 05:44, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Please comment on the current discussion at the talk page there if you have an opinion. I would value your analysis either way. Thanks! -- Ssilvers 17:11, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
Your comments sound entirely reasonable to me. I came upon the article and saw that the Biography project hadn't assessed it, but that the Saints Project (before my time) had. I just wanted to ensure that the article got rated. I'm fairly sure if it gets "B" rating (which I wouldn't object to) the Project would probably make it a priority for collaboration.

Hello again... I appreciate your comments, as they help to guide me towards improvement. I realized after I nominated it for A rating that it needed some work, so I started adding critical analysis of each novel and had not arrived at the The Looking-Glass, October Island and his short story compilations...In regards to The Looking-Glass being his best novel, I think that most biographers and historians have argued this point in terms of literary content, but on the basis of historical importance, Company K or even The Bad Seed would take precedent. About the image, I do not currently know of any other free images that exist of March that are not from the WWI era, but I could be wrong. Soon I will be visiting some holdings of his work and letters; hopefully I will find an image that can be used instead.
Thanks again for your helpful words, I will revise and resubmit sometime in the future, but only after the introduction is expanded and the points therein are substantiated in the main text.
Cheers! - Diarmada 01:43, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
It has been copyedited thrice now, (by ONUnicorn, Sticks66and Fishal). See the history. It should be given A-class status, if anyone respons. I will query any problems immediately (or as soon as I can) SpecialWindler talk 04:56, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
Errabee, what do you mean with "until confirmed as hoax, it remains part of bio project"? I was hoping that one should understand my questions on the talk page of Argotta are purely rhetorical. The hoax is allready confirmed. So there is no reason to wait on 'confirmation'. It is possible somebody wants to expand on this hoax, but in that case we need information on the nature of the hoax. Since it is not usefull or encyclopic to call a hoax a hoax without further information, AND Argotta is not in primary sources of contemporain historians I intend to propose deletion of the whole article. So do you have info about the hoax, or not? johanthon 14:30, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for submitting a lot of nice (IMHO) nominations for Version 0.7. The Rasputin article really needs cleanup, would you be interested in working on that? It's also been nominated for Wikipedia:Article Collaboration and Improvement Drive, perhaps you could vote there too? If you look at the talk page you'll see several scathing comments, with one very recent one highlighting some terrible content. I put the nomination "on ice" in the hope that the article would get cleaned up in time. Thanks, Walkerma 02:53, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
