Good work

 * Alvear24, have you thought about putting Milford Haven up for Good Article status? It's worth a shot, and if it fails we should at least know where to take the article next. FruitMonkey (talk) 15:20, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

To be honest, I wouldn't know where to even start doing that Alvear24 (talk) 23:07, 27 December 2009 (UTC)


 * I'd be happy to put it forward, I've gone through the process with two other articles, and managed to get both through. I'm sure the likes of myself and Pondle would help you as much as possible. If we fail, we fail, but it would be great to get this as one of the best articles under the Wales WikiProject. FruitMonkey (talk) 22:02, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Milford Haven - GA nomination
Hi, I see that you have nominated Milford Haven for GA review. However, the article's talk page is missing the GA nomination banner which is a required part of the nomination/review process (See the talk pages of other nominated articles that have not yet  been taken on by a reviewer). Please check that  you  have correctly  carried out all  the steps of the nomination  process. When you are ready, please let  me  know, and I'll begin reviewing the article. --Kudpung (talk) 23:48, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

Milford Haven
Hi, Just had a quick read through of the Milford Haven and thought I should tell you that it currently has a citation needed template on it. Under the Good Article Quick Fail criteria this means that technically it could be failed without being reviewed, so you might want to fix that before it comes up for review. Regards, Miyagawa   (talk)  14:05, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Milford Haven on hold
Hi Alvear. I've started the GA review of Milford Haven, and I've put it on hold for seven days to allow time for some work to be done. There is plenty of material in the article, and I don't see any huge problems with it, so I strongly feel that with the appropriate amount of work done on it we should get it through to GA status - it's mainly a case of cleaning it up really. Please get in touch if you have any questions, or if the work is done before the seven days is up. Regards  SilkTork  *YES! 12:56, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Alvear, I've just turned the notable residents from a list form into prose; it's still not good enough as it now needs references. Any you can provide will be good. You have a strong reviewer in SilkTork, and the fact that he knows the area is a good bonus as it allows us to tighten things up and he won't ask silly questions. Ignore anything apart form the areas he states are failing, and focus on what he suggests. If you address these areas, then it will pass GA status. Anything you feel is out of control, give me a nod. I'm happy to help. FruitMonkey (talk) 00:54, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi folks. I'm impressed with the work you are doing on Milford Haven. Don't despair that there is now quite a lot of comment on the talkpage, this frequently happens. It is useful when others also comment, as the more eyes the better. I am quite determined that the article will get through to GA status, and as long as people are working well together this is quite achievable within a week or two.  SilkTork  *YES! 12:51, 17 January 2010 (UTC)


 * I won't disrupt the flow of the GA review template with any  more coments, and it  would certainly  be improper to  interfere with  the reviewer's prerogative, so  I  will just point  out the following points here in  case they  can be of help to  you:

"How to present citations:'Each article should use the same method throughout. If an article already has citations, adopt the method in use or seek consensus before changing it."
 * Citing sources
 * Citing sources
 * Citing sources
 * In the case of Milford haven, there was no  method in  use until I  attempted to introduce one, but it  was made clear that  it  was not  wanted. I  won't now  be making any  further contributions to  the article, so  I  hope therefore that  the links above will nevertheless be of some use. Also, the exceptionlly high  frequency of multiple use of  may  raise the question why  so  much  of the article has to  be based on a source that  can't  be readily  accessed for verification. I would personally have assumed that  it  might  have been appropriate at  least  to  cite the relevant page numbers.--Kudpung (talk) 03:23, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Slipping Away From Milford


The article Slipping Away From Milford has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Doesn't appear to meet Notability (books). No assertion of notability. No references.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.  SilkTork  *YES! 13:25, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

Milford Haven GA review - time up.

 * Time is SLIPPING AWAY and It's been over a week now since any  work  was done on this article towards the GA award that  you  nominated it  for. I've done all I can for it for  you and am now withdrawing  from  the project. Theoretically there is a time limit for getting  articles up  to  snuff once an official  review has begun.--Kudpung (talk) 02:58, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Milford Haven
 SilkTork  *YES! 13:16, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Alvear, Well done. Though it can be a bloody process, and you may find the whole thing running away from you, it was your initial efforts and hard work that brought this article to GA status. FruitMonkey (talk) 18:27, 10 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Congrats Alvear, a real feather in your cap. I've just given the other editors who were most heavily involved in getting to GA barnstars: I've already awarded you one previously for your work on this article, so I didn't want to overload you!--Pondle (talk) 23:23, 10 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Without your 262 contribs to  the article, we wouldn't have had anything to mess with,  and would have had to  look  for another GA nominee to  hack  to  death! --Kudpung (talk) 02:48, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Hi Alvear. I know you  to  be concerned with  the quality  of articles about  British  settlements, so  I  thought  you  might  like to  catch  up  on what's been happening  here:talk:Peterborough, Talk:Dover, Talk:Plymouth, Talk:Sydenham, Talk:Cornwall & Talk:Cambridge.

Wikimedia Stories Project
Aloha!

My name is Victor and I work with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. We're chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade new people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I find stories that drive our annual fundraising efforts. It's important to convey the incredible diversity of people who've come to rely upon Wikipedia every day.

I'd really like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia.

I will be in Buenos Aires from the 10th - 11th of March 2012.

I'm hoping you will elaborate on your story with me. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project!

Thank you,

Victor Grigas

Disambiguation link notification for June 28
Hi. When you recently edited Milford Haven railway station, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Yeovil railway station (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Stack Rock Fort
Your latest edit makes it sounds like the Fort was build in 1850-1852 as a result of the Royal Commission report, which is 1859. I think you are conflating the first and second forts on the site. The Victorian Forts datasheet describes the position best, would you like to clarify the article with information from there?

Thanks John

Vicarage (talk) 20:25, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

The edit did not use datasheets as its source - it was guided by the publication recently referenced - Pembrokeshire Military Forts by Phillips. I shall have to cross reference the two.

Your edits read as if the first fort had the big guns, but it was the second. I've tweaked things to make this clear. Vicarage (talk) 07:32, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Latin American 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Latin America/The 10,000 Challenge ‎ has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Argentina etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Latin American content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon. If you would like to see this happening for Latin America, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Latin America, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!♦ -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 00:24, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
