Hello Ceranthor! I have nominated the above article for a FA. Please leave your comments on it here. Thank you. – Novice7 (talk) 17:23, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Typically this sort of comment would be a request for commentary, not a command, but I like your approach, so... I'll get to it asap.  ceran  thor 19:44, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, did I do something wrong?? Sorry, but I'm not sure if I did this in a neutral way. Thanks. – Novice7 (talk) 03:34, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
 * You did it neutrally, just a bit aggressively... ;)  ceran  thor 23:50, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry again. It's my first FA, and I was no nervous when posting the message. I didn't want the delegates to think I was canvassing. Thanks :) – Novice7 (talk) 04:14, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Calabozos
Hi, long time no speak. Hope you and yours are well and happy. Seeing as how you mentioned the article on your userpage I had a quick read through and left a query on Talk:Calabozos. I might of course be wrong, one year of studying Geology before many current Geology teachers were born doesn't exactly qualify me as a pundit.

WP:UAA
Could you explain why you declined Xmanager? If you do a Google search, you'll find out that it is a PC tool. -Porchcrop (talk 03:08, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
 * We do not block people simply because their names match tools. We block them for promoting them. As far as I can tell, Xmanager did not promote the tool at all, and therefore did not need to be blocked. This is standard practice at UAA.  ceran  thor 03:10, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Umm then could you explain how he didn't promote the tool? -Porchcrop (talk 03:20, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
 * He didn't make any edits promoting the tool, create any articles about the tool, or edit anything related to the tool, as far as I can tell.  ceran  thor 03:21, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay, I see it now with both the reports that you declined. Thanks for the info. :) -Porchcrop (talk 03:26, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
 * You're welcome, and I'm happy to have another UAA editor on board. I seem to remember you from before, have you been away from UAA for a while?  ceran  thor 03:29, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

Civility
When will it be appropriate for me to  serve a personal attack warning or going  to  a notice board, for calling  me an 'obtuse jerk' ? or should I respond to  it  directly  on  my  RfA? I'm not sure that  a 'crat  will  discount  such  abuse. --Kudpung (talk) 08:22, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's quite enough to be considered a personal attack. Unfortunately, there's not much we can do, since the oppose !votes are mainly based on those diffs from a year ago, on Orlady's diffs, or personal opinion of your temperament. I think at this point it would be best to just sit it out and hope that you will make it through, and if not, then you can take a break and try again in a few months. Don't worry, it took me three tries before I passed. I know how it feels.  ceran  thor 13:34, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh just do your best to ignore what they say if it hurts too much. People at RfA love to load up on one particular flaw. It's one of the reasons hardly anyone goes for the mop anymore: they just load up on one thing, and hold it to be worth as much as everything else. Res Mar 18:18, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

WikiCup 2011 February newsletter
So begins round two of the WikiCup! We now have eight pools, each with eight random contestants. This round will continue until the end of April, when the top two of each pool, as well as the next 16 highest scorers of those remaining, will make it to round three. Congratulations to (first, with 487 points) and  (second, with 459), who stormed the first round. finished third with 223. Twelve others finished with over 100 points- well done to all of you! The final standings in round one can be seen here. A mere 8 points were required to reach round two; competition will no doubt be much more fierce this round, so be ready for a challenge! A special thanks goes, again, to for dealing with all bot work. This year's bot, as well as running smoothly, is doing some very helpful things that last year's did not. Also, thanks to for some helpful behind-the-scenes updating and number crunching.

Some news for those who are interested- March will see a GAN backlog elimination drive, which you are still free to join. Organised by WikiProject Good articles, the drive aims to minimise the GAN backlog and offers prizes to those who help out. Of course, you may well be able to claim WikiCup points for the articles you review as part of the drive. Also ongoing is the Great Backlog Drive, looking to work on clearing all of the backlogs on Wikipedia; again, incentives are offered, and the spirit of friendly competition is alive, while helping the encyclopedia is the ultimate aim. Though unrelated to the WikiCup, these may well be of interest to some of you.

Just a reminder of the rules; if you have done significant work on content this year and it is promoted in this round, you may claim for it. Also, anything that was promoted after the end of round one but before the beginning of round two may be claimed for in round two. Details of the rules can be found on this page. For those interested in statistics, a running total of claims can be seen here, and a very interesting table of that information (along with the highest scorers in each category) can be seen here. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. J Milburn and The ed17 23:38, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks!
Hi Ceran! I'm not sending thankspam, to everyone, but I would like to  personally thank  you for having not  only  co-nominated me and for all your support,  but  for having  badgered me into  this for months. I didn't pass with  the flying  colours of  you prognosis, but  what  matters is that  I  passed, and  that  without  your encouragement  it  would never have happened at all. I know now what sheer hell you  went through  on your own previous ordeals to  get  the tools, and particularly  all  that  nasty  stuff about ages. What I  learned on  this RfA will also go  towards my  continued mentoring other young editors, and continuing to  participate in the campaign to  make RfA a more appealing  prospect for editors of all ages who  also  need the tools. I look forward to working closely together with you as a fellow admin. Again, my heartfelt  thanks. --Kudpung (talk) 11:16, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Lost Energy
I replied to my talk page, and am not quite sure how this conversation works as far as talk pages and Wikipedia, but I'm going to assume you don't watch all user pages you comment on.

From what I understand from the guidelines for speedy deletion, things that are obvious spam or marketing material should be attributed to the speedy deletion template. That is what I did, but apparently erred. I would love to know how the Lost Energy article is anything but that, however, seeing as it contains nothing more than marketing information and product comparisons from a single company. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shade00a00 (talk • contribs) 17:20, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Earthquake project
Hello Ceranthor: I am new to Wikipedia and stumbled on the earthquake project, learning that you have started it. I have entered my name into the list of participants in this project and would like to help. However, I see trouble brewing. The page on "Earthquake Prediction" reads like an article in a Boulevard Newspaper, not like explanations in an encyclopedia. I hope this assessment does not offend you, it is factual. As the heading of this article states, references are missing. I added about 2 dozen scientific references, and corrected some wrong statements in the first few paragraphs during the last couple of days. This was possible without major surgery.

Looking down the page of the article, I see some serious shortcomings, which I do not want to touch without your guidance. Please tell me how we can proceed with major changes but treading gently.

Please tell me who are other experts on earthquakes in Wikipedia (I know Kafka and have contacted him for help).

Real time loss estimates after earthquakes
Hello again: I have put together a draft for an article on real time loss estimates after earthquakes, and would like it to be included in the Earthquake Project.

By mistake, I have nominated it for speedy delivery (the reason was that I could not figure out how to edit-correct the first paragraph, and thinking this way I could start over). In the meantime, I know how to correct the first paragraph and have finished the article. However, the article lingers on the waiting list of deletion, without action.

Could you please look at this case? Thank you for considering to sort this out. Maxwyss (talk) 10:03, 26 March 2011 (UTC)MaxWyss
 * The article looks quite good. It needs adjusting to the Wikipedia style of writing, as I saw Mikenorton pointed out on your talk page, but I think it's a fascinating article and one that's worthy of inclusion as its own article. Glad to see a geophysicist who wants to help! Thanks, and keep up the good work! ;)  ceran  thor 12:07, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

WikiCup 2011 March newsletter
We are half way through round two of the WikiCup, which will end on 28 April. Of the 64 current contestants, 32 will make it through to the next round; the two highest in each pool, and the 16 next highest scorers. At the time of writing, our current overall leader is with 231 points, who leads Pool H.  (Pool G) also has over 200 points, while 9 others (three of whom are in Pool D) have over 100 points. Remember that certain content (specifically, articles/portals included in at least 20 Wikipedias as of 31 December 2010 or articles which are considered "vital") is worth double points if promoted to good or featured status, or if it appears on the main page in the Did You Know column. There were some articles last round which were eligible for double points, but which were not claimed for. For more details, see WikiCup/Scoring.

A running total of claims can be seen here. However, numerous competitors are yet to score at all- please remember to submit content soon after it is promoted, so that the judges are able to review entries. The number of points that will be needed to reach round three is not clear- everyone needs to get their entries in now to guarantee their places! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup.

Earthquake Portal
I noticed errors, inaccuracies, and uninformative text in the two introductory paragraphs of the earthquake portal, but cannot edit them. Chris.urs-o has corrected one error, so far. Would it be possible that I send you an email with a file that contains new proposed paragraphs and the old paragraphs with explanations for the need of changes in color?User:Mikenorton, User:Vsmith, User:Dougweller and User: Chris.urs-o ;)MaxWyss (talk) 12:08, 2 April 2011 (UTC)MaxWyss


 * Chris.urs-o has told me how to edit the portal page, so I have done it. The following is an attempt to explain the reasons for the changes. (I don't know how to get color on this page, so I set my comments in italics).


 * An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust (not only the crust) that creates seismic waves. Earthquakes are detected with a (not just one) seismometer. The moment magnitude of an earthquake is conventionally reported, or the related and mostly obsolete Richter magnitude (There is no definition of “Richter magnitude”. There are about 6 ways to estimate magnitude from different types of waves, all should come up with the same number but they usually don’t. I think these details should be explained elsewhere, not in the lead.), with magnitude 3 or lower earthquakes being mostly imperceptible (not quite true: in Switzerland a 100 million Frank project was abandoned because M3 events were strongly felt by the population) and magnitude 7 causing serious damage over large areas. Intensity of shaking is measured on the modified Mercalli scale (should give more info here to show the difference to magnitude, something many news reporter do not know).
 * At the Earth's surface, earthquakes manifest themselves by a shaking and sometimes displacement of the ground. When a large earthquake epicenter (the epicenter is not large or small; it’s a point) is located offshore, the seabed sometimes suffers sufficient displacement (we should specify that it is uplift that is responsible, horizontal displacements generate virtually no tsunami) to cause a tsunami. The shaking in earthquakes can also trigger landslides and occasionally volcanic activity.
 * Seismology (from the Greek seismos(σεισμός) = earthquake and λόγος,logos = knowledge ) is the scientific study of earthquakes and the propagation of elastic waves through the Earth. The field also includes studies of earthquake effects, such as tsunamis as well as diverse seismic sources such as (this phrase appears also in the line above, which sounds awkward; get rid of it) volcanic, tectonic, oceanic, atmospheric (I have never heard of oceanic and atmospheric sources of earthquakes. This should be deleted), and artificial processes (such as explosions). A related field that uses geology to infer information regarding past earthquakes is paleoseismology. A recording of earth motion as a function of time is called a seismogram. (That belongs up with the “seismograph”, delete it here)


 * I hope these explanations help.User:Mikenorton, User:Vsmith, User:Dougweller and User: Chris.urs-o ;)MaxWyss (talk) 15:29, 2 April 2011 (UTC)MaxWyss

re: Astrurian
You recently deleted the redirect at Astrurian, citing the speedy-criterion R3. I had to restore that page because of its age. The "recently created" clause of criterion R3 applies to redirects created within the last few minutes, days at most. As a redirect that's 6 months old and gets a steady trickle of hits, it no longer qualified under R3. If you feel strongly that it's an inappropriate redirect, we can nominate it to RfD. As a typo of a variant name, the plausibility of the redirect is open to debate. Thanks for your understanding. Rossami (talk) 05:59, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Please don't spend any more of your useful time on this; I was just trying to tidy up, it's really not important. On a general note, I do wonder if making mis-spellings always lead straight to the article is not somewhat diseducative, though. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:11, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Plagium article deletion
I totally disagree with the Plagium article deletion, that has been done while I was editing the article. If Wikipedia policy, is to avoid article referencing softwares, then I don't see why such commercial articles still exists:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyscape http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turnitin http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarismscanner http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammarly

Note that Plagium is also referenced with the above products for a long time in the following article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism_detection

So Plagium should also have its page.

The content of the Plagium article was very similar. If there's no way Plagium article to be restored, and eventually corrected, then these articles must be deleted according to the same policy.

WikiCup 2011 April newsletter
Round 2 of the 2011 WikiCup is over, and the new round will begin on 1 May. Note that any points scored in the interim (that is, for content promoted or reviews completed on 29-30 April) can be claimed in the next round, but please do not start updating your submissions' pages until the next round has begun. Fewer than a quarter of our original contestants remain; 32 enter round 3, and, in two months' time, only 16 will progress to our penultimate round. , who led Pool F, was our round champion, with 411 points, while 7 contestants scored between 200 and 300 points. At the other end of the scale, a score of 41 was high enough to reach round 3; more than five times the score required to reach round 2, and competition will no doubt become tighter now we're approaching the later rounds. Those progressing to round 3 were spread fairly evenly across the pools; 4 progressed from each of pools A, B, E and H, while 3 progressed from both pools C and F. Pools D and G were the most successful; each had 5 contestants advancing.

This round saw our first good topic points this year; congratulations to and  who also led pool H and pool B respectively. However, there remain content types for which no points have yet been scored; featured sounds, featured portals and featured topics. In addition to prizes for leaderboard positions, the WikiCup awards other prizes; for instance, last year, a prize was awarded to (who has been eliminated) for his work on In The News. For this reason, working on more unusual content could be even more rewarding than usual!

Sorry this newsletter is going out a little earlier than expected- there is a busy weekend coming up! A running total of claims can be seen here. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews.

Feedback on the European Southern Observatory article
Dear Ceranthor,

I am writing regarding the recent submission of the article on the European Southern Observatory (ESO) for peer review. I have noticed you are an experienced Wikipedian with an interest solar system, planets and the like so I was wondering if you would be able to give a read through the article on ESO and let me know what should be improved for it to meet FA criteria.

Thanks in advance for your help, Barbara Ferreira (on behalf of Lars Lindberg Christensen, director of ESO's education and public outreach department.) Lars Lindberg Christensen (talk) 14:50, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
 * If you want just a prose looksie, I'm totally up for it. But I'm a total armchair astronomer; I don't have any education or experience with the field. You might want to consult Serendipodous, Ruslik0, or Nergaal, who all have far more experience than I do.  ceran  thor 18:54, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Hey Ceranthor, thanks for writing. Most of the article is not technical; it is more about the organisation itself than about astronomy. I wrote to a wiki editor with experience in astronomy, as well as you, but I think it is ideal to also have a non-specialist looking at it. It would be great if you could give let us know what needs to be improved! Barbara (on behalf of Lars Lindberg Christensen (talk) 07:46, 17 May 2011 (UTC))

 * It was indeed. Don't think I forgot. I hope we all find the time to do something like that again... I'll see if there are any important anniversaries coming up next year.  ceran  thor 18:58, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Love to. I'll keep an eye out, but am swamped for the next 2 weeks and am fairly busy until mid-July. Though that doesn't seem to change... so just drop me a note if you have an idea. Awickert (talk) 05:09, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
