Hello, I'm Mathonius. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page Age of Discovery, because it seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you.

 * Hi Anniepresto, I just wanted to come in and add a little explanation for why Mathonius might be deleting these links. When I saw that they had reversed your contribution at AACRM I thought, 'hey, what's up with that?' But then I saw that you were adding zinnedproject.org lesson plans to a bunch of different articles—a practice which is generally considered not that cool because it looks like a spam attack (intended more to promote an outside website than to improve the Encyclopedia). It seems like you might be connected to Teaching for Change, and that's totally fine, but I think you may find folks here to be more welcoming if you focus on substantial edits more than external links. Please ask questions (here or at my talk page) if you have them, and I hope you stick around. Welcome & Peace, groupuscule (talk) 23:20, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the clarification, and I will put some time into more in-depth edits, completing citations, etc. Do you have any suggestions of pages that need additions/changes? (Anniepresto (talk) 14:02, 25 June 2013 (UTC))
 * Oh my gosh Anniepresto, do we ever. The article on "Racial inequality in the United States", for example, is crying out for more hard facts and statistics. Based on your interests, you might appreciate the "Open Tasks List" at WikiProject countering systemic bias. Or if there's a particular topic that you know a lot about, we might be able to find relevant articles and help you to get started with working on them. Thank you for exploring Wikipedia! groupuscule (talk) 19:56, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

deOrphaning script
Hello everyone! I was just working on responding to a couple bug reports for a script that I worked up as part of a request from this project, and I noticed that only a couple people (who weren't even on this mailing list) are actually using the script. A little history on the script: In March of 2014, came to my user talk page and said he needed some help in acquiring a script for a backlog drive that he was working on that could keep track of and score deOrphanings for a scored backlog drive. I took that request to the project's talk page (BackLog Drive "DO" (De-Orphaning) script proposal) and there was near unanimous support for this. I thought about the proposal and decided the best way to do it was to build a new script (which is still no where near as comprehensive as 's OrphanTabs) and build into it a mechanism that will make BLD scoring easy.

What I'm wondering at this point is, since there appears to be only two people using the script, should I continue to develop this script with a goal of using it for scoring BLDs or just debug the existing script and leave it at that. Thanks for any replies or comments.

If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Opted-out of message delivery to your user talk page.
