 * What motivated you to join WikiProject U2? Have you contributed to any of the project's Good or Featured Articles?
 * I have joined the WikiProject U2 in February 2008, but haven't been as active as I wanted to be. I first knew of this band when a LP dropped on my turntable, it was their debut album, Boy in late 1980, &hellip; and decided that "I Will Follow" this band with interest. The first impression is often the best impression, and Boy was followed by October (1981), War (1983), and The Unforgettable Fire (1984), just some favourites of mine. I am a long time member of the WikiProject U2, but, except for marginal and sporadic interventions, I have not contributed much to any of the project's best articles. Maybe one day some of our newest collaborative efforts will become featured articles. –p joe f (talk • contribs) 10:08, 20 September 2013 (UTC)


 * How much has changed since we last visited the project three years ago? What are the project's current goals and initiatives? How have you kept the project's momentum going?
 * The activities in the main namespace has been already described very well by Melicans. On the obscure side of the project things have not gone as well as we would expect. Except for 2007, when the project was started, our members have not been fully active for years. Things seem to have gotten better here since the arrival of Miss Bono in late 2012 – early 2013. In April 2013, there was a roll call, in order to keep the project up-to-date on our number of active members. Project's pages and portal have been redesigned and reorganized. Finally, after many years, a new newsletter has been published and other newsletters are in preparation. Also, there have been several good results in the main namespace: some articles have seen a marked improvement and new articles have been created while others are in the process of being published. We need to do much more, but the vast majority of the credit goes to Miss Bono, without her active participation, and the hard work she put into it, this would never have happened. –p joe f (talk • contribs) 12:27, 23 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Are some eras of the band's existence better covered than others on Wikipedia? Has it been difficult to find sources for the production details of albums or tours that occurred years ago?
 * The project currently has eight featured articles but only two are from the “eighties”, and more precisely two songs: "One Tree Hill" and "Mothers of the Disappeared", both from the album The Joshua Tree (1987), which is itself a good article. All other albums released before The Joshua Tree are rated as "B-Class", except for October (1981), which has been assessed as C-Class. With the exception of the War Tour, which took place in 1982–1983 and is a good article, all articles about their tours until The Joshua Tree Tour are Start-Class articles. And that says it all! But the problem of finding source and materials for articles regarding albums and torus released before the “Internet era” (circa 1991 onwards) is not a problem that only affects our WikiProject, but it is common to many other projects and articles about music, entertainment, popular culture, and many other area. –p joe f (talk • contribs) 08:40, 24 September 2013 (UTC)


 * WikiProject U2 also covers philanthropic ventures launched or supported by the band. Have you seen other music-related projects include philanthropy in their focus or is this unique to WikiProject U2? How is the format and focus of these articles different from the project's music-related articles?
 * Philanthropy, intended as "love of humanity", the intention of increasing the well-being of mankind, is a generic term that, for better or for worse, belongs to all. For this reason many music-related projects include this kind of "philanthropy" in their focus. Charitable foundations are also covered by many projects, but WikiProject U2 has a really impressive quantity — relative to the total number of articles covered by the project — and often quality, of articles and informations on this subject. ONE for all. To come across philanthropy, as well as history, biography and economy or having to deal with the spiders of the Colorado Desert is not a problem for many editors. I think that it is very difficult that a wikipedian will contribute only on a single subject; maybe when he was a novice, but on a long time scale, he/she will have to face every days things. All the "few" things we know. Most likely an editor is also a reader, remember that there are more Wikipedia's readers than editors. Readers and editors often use Wikipedia as a starting point of their researches and studies expanding their knowledge and also the number of contributions to Wikipedia in the fields of their everyday life. And, as in everyday life, you cannot live on U2 alone. –p joe f (talk • contribs) 14:40, 20 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Has the project run into any issues with neutral point of view or notability with regards to U2-related subjects? What can be done to help the band's fans contribute to Wikipedia in constructive ways?
 * There are no special issues regarding a "neutral point of view" at the moment, except for Product Red that has a NPOV dispute started in March 2011. It is a criticism or contorversy about its Criticism or Controversy section; in fact, a matter of controversy. Joking a part, no "notability" issues are known currently. U2's fans that want to contribute to Wikipedia (and to Wikipedia's articles related to U2) can ask for help at the project talk page or by contacting any of the active members of the project — we would be glad to help in any way we can. –p joe f (talk • contribs) 13:10, 20 September 2013 (UTC)


 * What are WikiProject U2's most urgent needs? How can a new contributor help today?
 * WikiProject U2 currently covers 253 articles that belong to the main namespace. There are 8 featured articles plus a featured list, and 24 good articles. All these articles (especially the band's main article, and articles about the four members and the main albums) must be maintained or improved to FA-Class. At the moment, we have 67 articles rated as top or high importance; some of them list editors who are available to help with them and have specific "to-do" lists; you can find both of them in their talk pages. New contributor, and all other editors, are encouraged to contribute and review articles within the scope of the WikiProject U2, and also to share their thoughts, ideas, suggestions and concerns via discussions on talk pages. A to-do list for WikiProject U2 is also available. Please consider joining us, WikiProject U2 needs your help! –p joe f (talk • contribs) 12:12, 20 September 2013 (UTC)



The Signpost: WPs – The Punks of Wikipedia in The Signpost – 18 June 2012



WPs The Punks of Wikipedia  By Mabeenot – 18 June 2012

This week, we turn to WikiProject Punk Music for an alternative view of Wikipedia's coverage of music topics. The project has grown from its modest beginnings in April 2006 into a refuge for Wikipedia's punks along with the 5 Featured Articles and 27 Good Articles they watch over. WikiProject Punk Music is home to the Good Charlotte Task Force and oversees two child projects, WikiProject The Clash and WikiProject Green Day. The project maintains a to do list, a portal, and a newsletter that is delivered to anyone listed on the project's participant page. We interviewed Jasper420, Guerillero, Benzband, and Pjoef.

'''What motivated you to join WikiProject Punk Music? What is you favorite Punk band?'''
 * Jasper420: It's one of the only subjects on which I am knowledgeable, which in turn is mostly due to the work of Wikiproject Punk writing Wikipedia articles. And lets go with The Gaslight Anthem. They're one of the only bands who've consistently been putting excellent music, and they've done it for 3 straight albums.
 * Guerillero: I have been involved with the punk scene since Jr High. This is a natural extension of my involvement. As for a favorite band — that is hard. I will list three: Minor Threat, Fugazi, and The Wonder Years.
 * Benzband: I listen to the music (punk, hardcore punk and ska punk), play it (in the garage, lol), and edit related articles. What other motivation does one need? :) As for bands there are a number of really great ones, too many to draw up a list here.
 * Pjoef: When I was 13, I was in a Heavy Metal/Punk Rock band called Larsen (from the audio feedback named after the Danish scientist). I listen to all kinds of music from Josquin des Prez to The Mars Volta, from the Renaissance to Trance, but my favourite band of all time is The Clash, " the only band that (still) matters ". Punk Rock is an attitude, and the essence of the attitude is give Wikipedia some more articles and contents about Punk!

'''The project claims 6 Featured Articles and Lists plus 26 Good Articles. Have you worked on any of these? Have you learned anything about the FA or GA process along the way?'''
 * Jasper420: I'm sure I've done something small to at least one of them, but I don't participate in the writing process.
 * Benzband: ↑ this.
 * Guerillero: I am not much of a writer; my strength in the main-space is sourcing. I have worked on some B class and below articles, straight edge for example, but I have never brought an article to GA status or have done substantial work on an article that is already a GA or FA. Maybe one day...
 * Pjoef: Maybe yes, but honestly I haven't learned so much about FA and GA processes except for the GA nominations of The Clash and London Calling articles.

'''In comparison to other music genres, how well does Wikipedia cover Punk music? Are there some aspects of Punk that tend to be over-represented or neglected?'''
 * Jasper420: I'm pretty sure Wikiproject Metal has us beat in a lot of areas, including Featured Articles.
 * Guerillero: Wikipedia covers punk as well as it can in quantity; the quality is where things are lacking. There is a whole lot of sourcing and improving that needs to be done.
 * Pjoef: The assessment departments of all WikiProjects about music (all kinds of) speak for themselves. There is a lot more work to do.

'''Are there any challenges to taking pictures of notable musicians and venues? What are some images the project could use help acquiring?'''
 * Jasper420: Not so much band images, but albums covers are always appreciated.
 * Guerillero: There are quite a few bands (70s and 80s) that have very few free images because most donate-able images are still on film. For example there are many notable bands that have no pictures.
 * Pjoef: We really need more pictures!

'''The project oversees three task forces focusing on individual bands. Have you been involved in any of these? How much collaboration goes on between the task forces and the parent project?'''
 * Benzband: There is The Clash WikiProject which hasn't been very active recently but editors are most welcome to join.
 * Pjoef: I started it in November 2007. There is also a good Portal.

'''What are the project's greatest needs? How can a new contributor help today?'''
 * Jasper420: We can always use people to upload album covers. That's what I do around here, but help is of course appreciated. There's also a bit of an overhaul going on with some of the major punk record labels, such as Bridge 9, SideOneDummy, and Punk Core, among others. Categorization and what not. Anyone interested can contact me.
 * Pjoef: To improve all articles related to Punk.
 * Guerillero: Bringing articles up to 2012 levels of sourcing is always an easy place to start. Another would be to look for a crufty stub to fix up and bring up to Start or C class.

Anything else you'd like to add?
 * Jasper420: Let's just go ahead and say, help is always needed.
 * Benzband: "The future is unwritten." Let's write it!
 * Pjoef: "This is a public service announcement with guitar: Know Your Rights — all FIVE of them."



Welcome to the first issue of The Wikifier in The Wikifier – Volume I, Issue I, January 2011 Monday 10 January 2011 14:46 (UTC)

 Monday 10 January 2011 "“Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject, so you know you are getting the best possible information.” —Michael Scott"
 * Welcome to the first issue of The Wikifier

Since this is the first edition of The Wikifier and my first attempt to an "editorial" or something close to that, I must begin by saying thank you to everyone who gave so generously to our project; it's an enormous privilege and joy to be part of the project. I am so very pleased to introduce this first Issue of the "wikification" newsletter, which I hope will be a success.

Wikify, Wfy, WFY, wfy, Wiki-ise, Wiki-ize, Wikification, Wikifying, Wikiise, Wikiize, Wikipedify.... What does it mean? Well, paraphrasing and summarising the glossary of terms commonly used on Wikipedia, it means to format a page by using wiki markup. They are all things we all do in reality often without even realising, this includes to apply any form of wiki-markup for standard headings, page layout, text formatting, links and URLs, files, lists, tables, templates and more.

In this space, every two months, other editors will present informative and/or instructional editorials, meant to help you. I would like to remind you that the next ' Wikification Backlog Elimination Drive ' will start in February. Are you ready? The last backlog elimination drive was a great success! Also, if you want to add yourself to our list of participants, please, visit this page. You may also try your luck ! And remember, the "holy book", the main reference for each wikipedian is our Manual of Style. My advice is, if you are in doubt, then consult "the manual".

I would also like to say a big thank you to any and all who have been involved in pulling this newsletter together and I'm sure you'll join me in wishing them all the best for the future.

Don't be afraid to edit and be bold! Happy editing and Happy New Year! p joe f

 * Your motto should:
 * Reflect the community or purpose of Wikipedia.
 * Be short; it's a motto, not an essay.
 * Be funny or serious; but nevertheless, interesting.
 * Be powerful; it should provoke a reaction or draw attention, not just another "blah blah".


 * Your motto should not:
 * Be similar to another approved motto.
 * Be offensive or inflammatory.
 * Be too obscure (so no little-known Yoda quotes, please).
 * Contain redundant links (e.g. We want you! …to join Wikipedia., where the meaning is clear without the links).

Tip: avoid rarely used words that not everyone will understand. Remember, a lot of non-English speakers read Wikipedia.

Top 10 Most Famous Quotes From Great Films

The Ten Most Famous Movie Quotes How Many Do You Know? (According to The Guinness Book of Film)

Introduction: These are the ten most recognizable film quotes according to a 1998 survey of a group of "10 film critics and experts" who were asked by Guinness to draw up a list of the "ten most famous movie quotes ever." According to the publication's editors, "We were looking for quotations that were accessible and that had popular appeal on a global scale. We were also looking for wit and delivery. Delivery is important."

The films chosen ranged from 1930 to 1994, and six of the 10 were from the 1930s and '40s. If you're interested, Odeon Cinemas in the UK conducted a similar survey in 2003 to determine the 10 Best Movie Lines Ever, with some duplications!

 * Love, the strongest and deepest element in all life, the harbinger of hope, of joy, of ecstasy; love, the defier of all laws, of all conventions; love, the freest, the most powerful moulder of human destiny; how can such an all-compelling force be synonymous with that poor little State and Church-begotten weed, marriage? Free love? As if love is anything but free! Man has bought brains, but all the millions in the world have failed to buy love. Man has subdued bodies, but all the power on earth has been unable to subdue love. Man has conquered whole nations, but all his armies could not conquer love. Man has chained and fettered the spirit, but he has been utterly helpless before love. High on a throne, with all the splendor and pomp his gold can command, man is yet poor and desolate, if love passes him by. And if it stays, the poorest hovel is radiant with warmth, with life and color. Thus love has the magic power to make of a beggar a king. Yes, love is free; it can dwell in no other atmosphere.
 * Emma Goldman, "Marriage and Love" in Anarchism and Other Essays (1911)

 * The woman was made of a rib out of the side of Adam; not made out of his head to rule over him, nor out of his feet to be trampled upon by him, but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected, and near his heart to be beloved.
 * Matthew Henry in Commentary on the Whole Bible, Vol. 1, under Genesis 2:21.

 * The most beautiful sight this earth affords is a man or woman so filled with love that duty is only a name, and its performance the natural outflow and expression of the love which has become the central principle of their life.
 * Josiah Gilbert Holland, reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), p. 394.

 * At the evening of life, we shall be judged on our love.
 * John of the Cross, reported in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (2002), p. 231.


 * Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. . . . It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk everything, you risk even more.
 * Erica Jong in How to Save Your Own Life (1977).


 * Love loves to love love.
 * James Joyce, Ulysses (1946), p. 327.

 * Why only hate? Where does love remain? Or at least a little decency toward other people?
 * Friedrich Kellner, diary entry (30 March 1940)

 * Thomas à Kempis (1380–1471), German monk, mystic, in The Imitation of Christ, pt. 3, ch. 6 (1471).


 * Love is a word, what matters is the connection that word implies.

 * The world is wonderful and beautiful and good beyond one's wildest imagination. Never, never, never could one conceive what love is, beforehand, never. Life can be great-quite god-like. It can be so. God be thanked I have proved it.
 * D. H. Lawrence (1885–1930), British author. Letter, 2 June 1912 (published in The Letters of D. H. Lawrence, Vol. 1, ed. by James T. Boulton, 1979). Lawrence wrote the letter after eloping to Germany with Frieda von Richthofen, wife of his old university professor, whom he later married.


 * All you need is love.
 * John Lennon, in "All You Need Is Love" from Magical Mystery Tour

 * Contrary to Pascal's saying, we don't love qualities, we love persons; sometimes by reason of their defects as well as of their qualities.
 * Jacques Maritain, Reflections on America‎ (1958), p. 20.


 * To him she seemed so beautiful, so seductive, so different from ordinary people, that he could not understand why no one was as disturbed as he by the clicking of her heels on the paving stones, why no one else's heart was wild with the breeze stirred by the sighs of her veils, why everyone did not go mad with the movements of her braid, the flight of her hands, the gold of her laughter. He had not missed a single one of her gestures, not one of the indications of her character, but he did not dare approach her for fear of destroying the spell.
 * Gabriel García Márquez, in Love in the Time of Cholera‎ (1985; translated by Alfred A. Knopf, 1988), p. 100.


 * And in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make.
 * Paul McCartney, in "The End" from Abbey Road (1969)


 * Love is not all: it is not meat nor drink Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain; Nor yet a floating spar to men that sink And rise and sink and rise and sink again; Love can not fill the thickened lung with breath, Nor clean the blood, nor set the fractured bone; Yet many a man is making friends with death Even as I speak, for lack of love alone.
 * Edna St. Vincent Millay, in "Sonnet XXX" from Fatal Interview (1931)


 * "True love is hard to find, sometimes you think you have true love and then you catch the early flight home from San Diego and a couple of nude people jump out of your bathroom blindfolded like a goddamn magic show ready to double team your girlfriend..."
 * Mitch (Luke Wilson) in Old School


 * Love would master self; and having made the mastery stretch onward and upward toward infinitude.

 * My love for you is past the mind, beyond my heart, and into my soul.

 * Love works magic. It is the final purpose Of the world story, The Amen of the universe.
 * Novalis, in Blüthenstaub-Fragmente (1798)

P

 * Love is the crowning grace of humanity, the holiest right of the soul, the golden link which binds us to duty and truth, the redeeming principle that chiefly reconciles the heart to life, and is prophetic of eternal good.
 * Petrarch, reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), p. 392.


 * "In all of nature, a male belongs to a female that he fancies and who fancies him. And so among the animals there are no idiots. But with us!... I'm a Jew, so I musn't love a Christian woman... He's a merchant, so he's got no right to a countess... And you who've got no money, you've no rights to any woman at all..."
 * Bolesław Prus, The Doll (1889).

R

 * Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come.

 * But love, I've come to understand, is more than three words mumbled before bedtime. Love is sustained by action, a pattern of devotion in the things we do for each other every day.

 * Leo Tolstoy in War and Peace (1865–1869)


 * Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.

 * Leo Tolstoy in "A Letter to a Hindu" (1908)


 * The more God's manifestation in man (life) unites with the manifestations (lives) of other beings, the more man exists. This union with the lives of other beings is accomplished through love. God is not love, but the more there is of love, the more man manifests God, and the more he truly exists...
 * Leo Tolstoy in his Diary (1 November 1910)

 * Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. from the prologue of Slapstick

 * The world moves for love; it kneels before it in awe.
 * Edward Walker (William Hurt), in The Village


 * Love is a minefield. You take a step and get blown to pieces, put yourself back together again and stupidly take another step. I guess that's human nature. It hurts so much to be alone that we'd all rather blow up than be single.
 * Kate Welles (Famke Janssen) in Love & Sex (2000)


 * An ounce of love is worth a pound of knowledge.
 * John Wesley, The Works of the Rev. John Wesley (1830), p. 393.

 * Thornton Wilder in The Bridge of San Luis Rey

 * Stephen (Tom Wilkinson), in The Last Kiss (2006).


 * There's a reason for the sunshinin' sky And there's a reason why I'm feelin' so high Must be the season when that Love light shines all around us.
 * Larry E. Williams, in Let Your Love Flow (Bellamy Brothers performance)


 * Just let your love flow like a mountain stream And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams And let your love show and you'll know what I mean It's the season Let your love fly like a bird on a wing And let your love bind you to all livin' things And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean That's the reason.
 * Larry E. Williams, in Let Your Love Flow (1976).


 * Living might mean taking chances, but they're worth taking. Loving might be a mistake, but it's worth making
 * Lee Ann Womack, I Hope You Dance (2000).


 * Love is the true antithesis of fear. It expands where fear constricts. It embraces where fear repels.
 * Marion Woodman and Elinor Dickson, Dancing in the Flames: The Dark Goddess in the Transformation of Consciousness, p. 45 (1997)

 * Love is in the air Everywhere I look around  Love is in the air  Every sight and every sound And I don't know if I'm being foolish  Don't know if I'm being wise  But it's something that I must believe in  And it's there when I look in your eyes.
 * John Paul Young, in Love Is in the Air (1977) (Performance in 1978)


 * Love is in the air In the whisper of the trees  Love is in the air  In the thunder of the sea And I don't know if I'm just dreaming  Don't know if I feel sane  But it's something that I must believe in  And it's there when you call out my name.
 * John Paul Young, in "Love Is in the Air" (1977)


 * You know when I said I knew little about love? That wasn't true. I know a lot about love. I've seen it, seen centuries and centuries of it, and it was the only thing that made watching your world bearable. All those wars. Pain, lies, hate... Made me want to turn away and never look down again. But to see the way that mankind loves... I mean, you could search to the furthest reaches of the universe and never find anything more beautiful. So, yes, I know that love is unconditional. But I also know it can be unpredictable, unexpected, uncontrollable, unbearable and strangely easy to mistake for loathing, and... What I'm trying to say, Tristan, is... I think I love you. My heart... It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it doesn't belong to me any more. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I'd wish for nothing in exchange — no gifts, no goods, no demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me, too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine.
 * "Yvaine" in Stardust (2007 film), based on Stardust (1998), by Neil Gaiman.

Verses

 * A purple robe he wore, o'erwrought with gold
 * With the device of a great snake, whose breath
 * Was a fiery flame: which when I did behold
 * I fell a-weeping and I cried, "Sweet youth,
 * Tell me why, sad and sighing, thou dost rove
 * These pleasant realms? I pray thee speak me sooth
 * What is thy name?" He said, "My name is Love."
 * Then straight the first did turn himself to me
 * And cried, "He lieth, for his name is Shame,
 * But I am Love, and I was wont to be
 * Alone in this fair garden, till he came
 * Unasked by night; I am true Love, I fill
 * The hearts of boy and girl with mutual flame."
 * Then sighing said the other, "Have thy will,
 * "I am the Love that dare not speak its name."

 * The uncertain glory of an April day;
 * Which now shows all the beauty of the sun,
 * And by and by a cloud takes all away."
 * William Shakespeare from The Two Gentlemen of Verona <i>(I, iii, 84-87)<i>

Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.

Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)


 * This message has been sent by p joe f on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).

=WP:Wikify= <!-- Hi Ben! I'd like to ask you a favour. I was taking a look at WikiProject Wikify when I noticed that (most likely) some prizes have not been assigned. In the October Drive, |statistics (tracking) and leaderboard (and its awards) are totally missing, and some of the pages in other drives maybe are not closed properly (fixed!). If I am correct, and taking more or less account of the fact that the October Drive had some "startup" problems due to the changes to the Wikify template, then these are the usernames eligible to receive the awards:


 * October 2012 Leaderboard appearance
 * 1st place (The WikiProject Wikify Trophy) : (57)


 * 2nd to 5th places (The Greater Working Wikifier's Barnstar) : (53),  (4), and  (1)


 * N.B.: I'm not sure if the October Drive should be considered as a "normal" drive, special, or if it should not be considered at all.

<pre style="width: 98%; height: 200px; overflow: auto; margin: 1em 1%; padding: .5em">
 * Participation in every drive in 2012


 * ,, and (6/6; October's Drive included)
 * , and, and (5/5; participated to all drives, October excluded)
