Thanks

Hi Diego, I liked your wikify, with no experience in web-desings but some bloggers and neither in computers I may have tried to reach to high. It has been a good "patada", so I am going to step one and start looking the data from your remarks, sneeking some more "pinillos" in the same subject. Looking forward to your next kick. Regards.--Lumentzaspi (talk) 12:36, 8 October 2008 (UTC)^[reply]

Hi pal, Spanish is my second language, It would have been worst, if like I told you, not just Polish-Basque but if I would have mixed-up Portuguese&Basque+English&French+Italian&Spanish, which is not just a bit of Span-English, to destroy Wikipedia´s politics. You told me where you are, were, have been, do, did & have done. I must confess I have register my same name in other wikis, but with none much contribution. Is that wrong?. You were very kind yerterday helping me, but my background in computers is none, like one of those old mechanics with no theory but few cars pulled apart. Thank you for everything, good-luck & hope we meet again someday. Yours.Lumentzaspi.

Gute nacht der freunf,

I can understand that so many open an account and never get anywhere, because I have been like scarmbling my shopping list and still have the trolley empty. You guys must have a good time (and patience or vocation) w/ us the beginers. But do not loose hope, one day it will pup up. This time. Just to say ¡Hi & thank you!

Page creation

I saw your comments here regarding the creation of pages by IP and non-confirmed users.

Are you familiar with Wikipedia:Article wizard? In addition to being a helpful start for new editors, it creates the desired draft as a user subpage. I think this is a wonderful approach, and would like to see it publicized more.

Once the user has completed their draft to their satisfaction, if they are auto-confirmed by then, they can move it themselves, or they can ask that it be moved, and another pair of eyes can check to make sure it is a net addition to the encyclopedia.

It occurs to be that if one more strongly encouraged the creation of new articles in user subpages, (except, of course, for established editors), one could be more relaxed about allowing brand-new editors, even IPs, to create new pages. The user subpages are no-indexed by rule, so an IP creating a shock page or a blatant advertisement isn't going to achieve their goal. If the page turns out to be decent, it can easily be moved to article space.--SPhilbrick T 14:12, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comment - best of luck.--SPhilbrick T 14:57, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

iw for templates

Hallo, when you are putting interwikis on the templates (as you did here), then do it on the documentation subpage instead. This way the software does not have to recalculate all the pages which is using the template. I think the same is true for eswiki: es:Plantilla:Fecha categoría artículo. --Christian75 (talk) 12:04, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Christianity Newsletter April 2013

ICHTHUS

April 2013

Membership report
The parent Christianity WikiProject currently has 357 active members. We would like to welcome our newest members, Thomas Cranmer, Mr.Oglesby, and Sneha Priscilla. Thank you all for your interest in this effort. We would be able to achieve nothing here without the input of all of you. If any members, new or not, wish any assistance, they should feel free to leave a message at the Christianity noticeboard or with me or other individual editors to request it.

From the Editor

We apologise for the hiatus in the publication of this newsletter due to unforseen circumstances leading to the wikibreak of John Carter, and so I have taken over as acting editor, and have taken this opportunity to move the publication date to the start of each month as planned, to better reflect on the previous month and look ahead to the next. This issue covers the period of time from mid-January to the end of March.

Since the last issue we have seen the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI and the election of Pope Francis. This has received much coverage both in the world media and on Wikipedia. While there is still much work to do, several quality articles have been written and the editors involved are thanked for their efforts.

This month we look ahead to Easter and the celebration of God's love for mankind through the crucifixion and resurrection of his Son Jesus Christ. With that, I wish you all happy reading!

P.S. Please click here to add the new Christianity noticeboard to your watchlist to follow the latest discussions relevant to WikiProject Christianity and subprojects.

Church of the month

This image of the Church of Saint Ildefonso, Portugal by Poco a poco was recently promoted to Featured Image. Thank you and congratulations for the great image!

Contest of the month
No particular contest this month. I am however getting rather close to getting together a more or less complete set of articles relating to different areas of Christianity which can be found in recent reference sources on the broad topic of Christianity, and about various subtopics, which I hope to have finished in the next few weeks. I wonder what the rest of you might think of, maybe, making the contests of future months be basically directed at filling in the gaps of our existing coverage of topics, like those topics given significant coverage in specialized reference works which we don't yet have content on, and giving the thanks, and rewards, whatever they might be, to those who create and develop such content. I am starting a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Christianity noticeboard#Future contests, and would very much welcome any input from interested parties in how to set it up, determine winners including how many winners, etc.

Christian art

Complete recording

Jesus nahm zu sich die Zwölfe, BWV 22, a cantata by the German composer J.S. Bach, was promoted to GA this month and was written by Gerda Arendt. Many thanks for her continuing work in the area of early 18th Century Church music.

Spotlight

The Spotlight this month turns to the the Jesus work group. The scope of this project includes the life and teachings of the central figure of Christianity, Jesus Christ and aims to write about them in a non-denominational encylopædic style. Top-priority articles include Jesus, Christ, Resurrection of Jesus, and Holy Grail, whereas High-priority articles include Aramaic Language, a former FA, as well as Sermon on the Mount, Lamb of God, and Passion (Christianity). The workgroup has also published two books, covering Christ's final days and the Parables of Jesus. The workgroup has two GAs, Nativity scene, and Jesus in Islam, but unfortunately the flagship article, Jesus was delisted in 2009. It is also responsible for three WP:1.0 articles, and the WikiWork of the project is 4.56, which indicates the "average" article is between Start and C class.

By Gilderien

Calendar
This coming month (end-March through end-April) includes Easter Sunday in Western Christianity and both Lazarus Saturday and Palm Sunday for the Eastern Orthodox Church. Other major feasts in the next month include those of Saint George, Saint Mark the Evangelist, Saint Stanislaus, James, son of Zebedee, and Benedict the Moor.

Help requests
Please let us know if there are any particular areas, either individual articles or topics, which you believe would benefit from outside help from a variety of other editors. We will try to include such requests in future issues.

(talk page stalker) - Several editors, Nasgualdesign for instance, don't !vote to support their own nominations or edits out of principal. It's a bit more common on Commons from what I've seen. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 17:00, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, in Commons I do support my nomination (I am though considering not to do it anymore), but here I am not sure whether people would agree on that practice and furthermore I am not so familiar with the criteria in en.wp to supportor oppose images. I have seen that the EV plays a key role, and I understand that, which makes it a bit different to Commons (and maybe that's why I prefer that project). That's why I just limited to express my opinion in the nomination. Still, I really appreciate what you did. Poc o² 18:31, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Petrillo Music Shell and Chicago Skyline

Hey there! I found what I think is a good secondary usage for this image. See what you think? Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 18:29, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Adam, I agree with you. I was wondering why is that so essential for a nomination to FP? If there are 2 articles where the picture is adequate then the nomination confirms its EV? interesting. Poc o² 18:35, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There's a requirement that an image adds significantly to articles. It's mainly meant to give English Wikipedia's FPC process a unique purpose compared to Commons' FPC, but it has the secondary purpose that, if an image is adding to an article significantly, it's likely to stay in the article long-term.

I can kind of see why they objected to the Petrillo Music Shell usage. while it puts it in context in a lovely way, you can't see the seating (if it's there: I suspect the seating comes and goes), and the noone had argued the case for why putting it in context adds value, which is one of those subtle added value things that people sometimes need pointed out: Knowing that, say, when going to a concert there you have a really good view of Chicago as a backdrop is information that isn't present in any other image.

Hello Yakikaki and Armbrust, I want to thank you both for nominating the picture and letting me know about the outcome. I have read the discussion and I agree that the file side is too small. That isn't a problem as itself but the reason is that I applied too much denoising and therefore the difference between pixels was reduced, the result is a smaller JPEG. I will upload a new and improved version, if you don't mind. Btw, that's the second FP of that monument, the first one (in Commons) was this one. Best regards, Poc o² 19:48, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest, my believe was not right, the denoising was moderate. Still, I have improved the picture in terms of curves, contrast, sharpness, tilt, perspective and chroma denoising, and will upload a new version Poc o² 20:23, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A page you started (Amalia Ramírez) has been reviewed!

Thanks for creating Amalia Ramírez, Poco a poco!

Wikipedia editor Joel.Miles925 just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

Very nice start. Just make sure your grammar and spelling are correct in section 1.

To reply, leave a comment on Joel.Miles925's talk page.

Hi Joel.Miles925, I need some help, do you think it is suitable to remove now that terrible template placed in the article? --Poc o² 20:10, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Amalia Ramírez

The article Amalia Ramírez has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Ahecht (TALK

Hi Ahecht, if you had granted me 4 minutes to create it, maybe you could have saved that template and this message. Please, have a look now. --Poc o² 19:34, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The proposed deletion for a biography of a living person really just serves as a warning, and can be removed by anyone (including you) once sources are added. --Ahecht (TALK
