LOCE review for [[USS Siboney (ID-2999)|USS ''Siboney'' (ID-2999)]]
Thanks for taking the time to review the article. I've replied to your comments at the article's talk page. — Bellhalla (talk) 22:37, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

LOCE request
I was wondering if you had the time, any time really, to take a look at Friday the 13th (franchise)? I don't know if you have any interest in such topics or not, so it's cool if you don't want to review it or don't have the time. Anyway, I'm directly requesting assistance because the article has been on the request page since December 2007. I want to get the majority of the page c/e'd before the last few minor subject additions take place, so that the FAC process will go smoother when the article is finally ready for that stage.  BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  02:29, 29 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Appreciate the copyedit.   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  00:57, 30 April 2008 (UTC)


 * LOL, waiting a day is nothing compared to the four months that I waited before. Thanks again.   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  03:53, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Adoption
Hey there! I noticed on your userpage that you are looking to be adopted - have anybody offered yet? If not, I'd be interested in adopting you, if you are okay with that. Just leave a message for me here. The Moridian  20:16, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi again! I have added the adopter template to my userpage, I notice you have added the template to your userpage, so... you have now been adopted! I've never actually done this before, and I'm still relatively new myself, so I don't really know where to begin. I guess the first thing is: if you want to ask anything (absolutely anything), just leave a message here, and I'll reply as soon as I can. I'm usually on wikipedia at least once a day, so I should reply fairly quickly. Secondly, if you get into any sort of crisis, leave me a message in the same place (here), and I'll help out. Finally, the adopter resources section recommends that I set you assignments to complete - I think this is a little too formal, but if you want to do this, I'll set you some tasks - the choice is yours. If prefer the informal approach, the usual things that new users do are: 1. Join a couple of wikiprojects and start contributing to them. 2. Learn a bit about coding. 3. Make a nice, finished, low-maintenance userpage. If you want, I can help you with these things - it's up to you now on how to want to progress. Leave me another message on my talk page (here) on what you want to do, and we can get started straight away!! The Moridian  14:10, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Adoptee-ness
1. I've joined something like 4 wikiprojects, but I find this too much, and it takes too long to check each project for new updates .etc. If you're already part of WP:LOCE, I'd suggest maybe picking one other that is your main specialty. You can always join more later - this is the thing that I forgot! 2. Sorry, here's where I get confusing - what I mean is basically learning little tricks that you type that help out greatly. For example, adding double square brackets  around something makes it into a link - and typing   adds a line break. I don't mean to sound patronising, its just my ICT knowledge is extremely poor - if you already know these things, just ignore me... :D 3. You're right, the coding stuff really does link to the userpage - I learnt and experimented on my userpage, which helped a lot. I just remember reading somewhere that the userpage is the thing that most editors turn their attention to eventually. Sorry for being confusing, hope this is a little clearer. The Moridian  16:18, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

By the way, have you decided whether you want assignments or not? The Moridian  13:29, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Assignment 1
OK then, your first assignment is... to create a nice new userbox for yourself :). Use this template if you want:     ID = the picture to go on the left hand side. ID-C = the colour of the picture box on the left hand side.

Info = the message on the right.

Info-c = the colour of the message box on the right.

Info-fc = the font colour of the message.

Here's an example:

  To create:

Once again, sorry if I sound patronising, if you can already do these just ignore me (I'm just pathetic with computers). You don't have to do one like this if you don't want to, you can do a double picture one if you want. I've not tried them yet... hey, that can be my assignment! The Moridian  14:31, 1 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi, I've glanced at your userpage, and its looking better already! I've just found one of these, and I think they're really cool, so:

What you can do next, if you want, is 'finalise' the userbox you made. To do this, create a subpage from your userpage by typing the address in the address bar (for example, one of mine is 'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Themoridian/SWTFUbox), and then copy and paste the userbox code from your userpage into the new page. Then, to display the userbox, you just type on your userpage and the box will be automatically inserted!! I think a progression from here is to continue jazzing-up your userpage (you can experiment with adding borders, images/captions, more userboxes .etc.) - if you need any help/ ideas just give me a shout! Also, if you want another assignment, see if you can make a major edit to an article (or create a new article altogether) - have a look in your wikiprojects in the to-do lists. The Moridian  09:17, 2 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi again, I don't know if you noticed, but your the image in your userbox has been removed by a bot because the copyright doesn't cover userspaces. I didn't realise that could happen, as it just has with all of my userboxes - so I apologise.  You'll have to try and find another image for the userbox that doesn't have copyright issues.  Again, sorry!   The Moridian   07:50, 8 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Yep, sure, you can use this to make bordered boxes:

 This gives:  This is a piece of code for a large box - once you have changed the colours, border thickness .etc. I use this on my userpage. If you want it to encompass the whole userpage, just put it at the top and leave the     bit at the very end of the page. If you want to add mini boxes within that for text .etc. you could use this: All you have to do with this is change the colour, the title, and the body text to your own preference, put it inside the first piece of code, and you'll get something like this:  The mini box expands across the page as you put text in it. This is the code I use on my userpage, as I find it the easiest one to work with. Also, if you add  at the end of the mini box code, you can copy and paste the mini box code to give a second mini box underneath! Hope that helps! The Moridian  09:26, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Shinto Wedding Picture
Good eye! Actually, the photo does appear to be the same, but the BBC credits Doug Bowman as the author; Doug Bowman is the photographer of the image at Flickr, as well. There the image is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license. See the actual image page here on Wikipedia:. Also, please see the BBC page: ; underneath the photo (which has been reversed) you will see "A Shinto bride ©." Click the copyright symbol and that will take you to a list of credits that include Doug Bowman, along with a link to his Flickr account. Also, note how when you float your mouse over the copyright symbol it says Doug Bowman. So, the image is not copyright by the BBC, but Doug Bowman. They probably saw the image here on Wikipedia and decided to use it on their site, since it is freely licensed. (Mind meal (talk) 23:09, 8 May 2008 (UTC))

Can you help?
I see you were listed as a participant in the League of Copy-Editors so it seems likely you can ... The thing is the Military history wikiproject urgently needs prose pros to help with our best articles. Milhist covers a broad range of interesting and varied subjects from film to biography, battles to weaponry, and Roman emperors to twentieth-century dictators. In Milhist, A-Class has become the last port of call before FAC and we are looking for people to help identify prose and MoS issues at A-Class A-Class Reviews and help fix them prior to featured article candidacy. We also have a copy-editing section in our Logistics Dept and that can always use experienced copy-editors. For most of our articles, you don't need to be a specialist in the subject matter, just good with words.

If you think you can help, please do! Thanks for your time, -- R OGER D AVIES  talk 04:22, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Check-up
Hi Sean! I’ve not checked on you for a while, so I’m just catching up. Your userpage is coming on well – it is a really big task to complete, I spent months refining my page! Remember: if you need help with anything at all, just leave a message on my talk page. My wikipedia activity is back to its usual level now my exams are over, so I normally respond to queries within a day or so. Now while I was looking at your userpage, I noticed the userbox for the League of Copyeditors – I was wondering what copyediting is exactly? Being a member of the LOC, I hold you more knowledgeable than myself. All the best,  The Moridian   08:09, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Articles Needing Copy Edit
Hello former LOCE member :)

This is an invitation for you to join a brand-new WikiProject that aims to improve the articles tagged for copy edit. This is pretty important to Wikipedia because there are now over 4,000 such articles, some of which need quite a bit of help. This is not a clone of the LOCE because we will not deal with requests for copy edits, but will happily make improvements to articles at our own pace. If you're interested, sign up at the project page!

Help in maintaining NPOV on historical Pacific War aviator
Hi Sean. Because you listed "Japanese military history" as an area of interest on the WikiProject Military history page, I thought you might be able to lend some help.

I'm looking for some third parties to review a problem editor who (in my opinion) continues to violate the NPOV policy of Wikipedia on the page of a Pacific War aviator, Mitsuo Fuchida. After exhausting myself trying to maintain accurate content in the "Controversy" section, I'm asking for a page ban for this user. If you have time and motivation, I'd really appreciate your consideration to review this issue. The Noticeboard Request is to be found here: I hate to take anyone's time, but this problem is why many won't trust Wikipedia. Thanks for very much for your consideration.--TMartinBennett (talk) 19:46, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/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 South East Asia, Japan/China or India 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 Asian 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 which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, 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 Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 02:32, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

March Madness 2017
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

2017 Military Historian of the Year and Newcomer of the Year nominations and voting
As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:36, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

User group for Military Historians

"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.
