Speaking of constructive.....
Thanks. So I had actually made a more constructive edit earlier, supported by trusted sources, I might add (e.g.: ABC and also CBS news). But this earlier version of the comment was almost immediately changed....apparently by someone who had pretty strong feelings about the whole thing. So, I made the one you saw, which was a bit cheeky. So speaking of constructive, Rsrikanth05...can you advise me on how should I make an alternative point, if every way (constructive or otherwise) gets changed within a couple hours? This is actually the first time I edited in wikipedia, so I don't know. :-S --76.22.72.61

About André Esteves page edits
Dear Rsrikanth05

I´m trying to edit Andre Esteve´s page on Wikipedia in a constructive way. There is missing information as well as wrong ones.

For example: in the Career section it is not said his begin as a System Analyst at Banco Pactual. You can check this information out in a article published by The New York Times (http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2011/09/28/an-investment-bankers-fortunes-rise-with-brazils/?_r=0)

Regarding the case Sete Brasil, it is informed Marcelo Odebrecht organized crime relating to contracts worth billions of dollars with the rigs company Sete Brasil. Marcelo Odebrecht was arrested as the fallout broadens in an investigation into corruption at the state-run oil giant Petrobras, not Sete Brasil. You can check this information reading the following The New York Times´article: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/20/business/international/brazil-arrests-head-ofodebrecht-in-petrobras-scandal.html

Sete Brasil is not Petrobras. It is a company to build drilling rigs for ultra-deep waters in the Brazilian territory with local content, stimulating technology, human resources competencies and generating jobs and revenue for the oil and gas industry. You can check it out at: http://www.setebr.com/en#History

My edits respects Wikipedia´s fundamental principle of good faith. They are referenced by articles published in the most prestigious magazines and newspapers website. Being so, would you kindly consider my contribution to André Esteves page ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brenno Alves (talk • contribs) 19:43, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

Article upgrade assistance request (Pre-translation stage)
Seasons Greetings,

This is in reference to a relatively new umbrella article on en-wikipedia named Ceremonial pole. Ceremonial pole is a human tradition since ancient times; either existed in past at some point of time, or still exists in some cultures across global continents from north to south & from east to west. Ceremonial poles are used to symbolize a variety of concepts in several different world cultures.

Through article Ceremonial pole we intend to take encyclopedic note of cultural aspects and festive celebrations around Ceremonial pole as an umbrella article and want to have historical, mythological, anthropological aspects, reverence or worships wherever concerned as a small part.

While Ceremonial poles have a long past and strong presence but usually less discussed subject. Even before we seek translation of this article in global languages, we need to have more encyclopedic information/input about Ceremonial poles from all global cultures and languages. And we seek your assistance in the same.

Since other contributors to the article are insisting for reliable sources and Standard native english; If your contributions get deleted (for some reason like linguistics or may be your information is reliable but unfortunately dosent match expectations of other editors) , please do list the same on Talk:Ceremonial pole page so that other wikipedians may help improve by interlanguage collaborations, and/or some other language wikipedias may be interested in giving more importance to reliablity of information over other factors on their respective wikipedia.

This particular request is being made to you since your user name is listed in Translators available list.

Thanking you with warm regards Mahitgar (talk) 05:45, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

WikiProject X Newsletter • Issue 5
Newsletter • October 2015

Hello there! Happy to be writing this newsletter once more. This month:

We did it!

In July, we launched five pilot WikiProjects: WikiProjects Cannabis, Evolutionary Biology, Ghana, Hampshire, and Women's Health. We also use the new design, named "WPX UI," on WikiProject Women in Technology, Women in Red, WikiProject Occupational Safety and Health. We are currently looking for projects for the next round of testing. If you are interested, please sign up on the Pilots page.

Shortly after our launch we presented at Wikimania 2015. Our slides are on Wikimedia Commons.

Then after all that work, we went through the process of figuring out whether we accomplished our goal. We reached out to participants on the redesigned WikiProjects, and we asked them to complete a survey. (If you filled out your survey—thank you!) While there are still some issues with the WikiProject tools and the new design, there appears to be general satisfaction (at least among those who responded). The results of the survey and more are documented in our grant report filed with the Wikimedia Foundation.

The work continues!

There is more work that needs to be done, so we have applied for a renewal of our grant. Comments on the proposal are welcome. We would like to improve what we have already started on the English Wikipedia and to also expand to Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata. Why those? Because they are multilingual projects and because there needs to be better coordination across Wikimedia projects. More details are available in the renewal proposal.

How can the Wikimedia Foundation support WikiProjects?

The Wikimedia Developer Summit will be held in San Francisco in January 2016. The recently established Community Tech team at the Wikimedia Foundation is interested in investigating what technical support they can provide for WikiProjects, i.e., support beyond just templates and bots. I have plenty of opinions myself, but I want to hear what you think. The session is being planned on Phabricator, the Wikimedia bug tracker. If you are not familiar with Phabricator, you can log in with your Wikipedia username and password through the "Login or Register: MediaWiki" button on the login page. Your feedback can help make editing Wikipedia a better experience.

Until next time,
