Submitting articles for review
How does one get a WikiProject (such as WikiLaw) to reevaluate their rating of an article? I just did extensive work on an article and would like it reevaluated? TheNgeveld  13:47, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Two things. One, (for articles without an evaluation), place their project banner on the talk page i.e.  .  Leave the importance and class parameteres out.  They'll eventually see that they're uncategorized and come by to set them.
 * Two, for either evaluation or reevaluation, leave a note at the project's talk page with a link to the article and a request for evaluation or reevaluation. That's worked for me several times in the past.  Several projects have a dedicated section for this, such as WikiProject_Law/Assessment.  Check the main project page to see, or just try filling in that page address with the WikiProject name that you're working on.

Multiple citations from the same book
I'm trying to figure out how to have multiple citations from the same book but different pages, without having to enter the full citation each time. So I'd like either the footnote to read "Ibid, pg 75" or the citation to appear as [1, pg 75], or something like that. Is there a way to do this? TheNgeveld  23:33, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I think what you are looking for is Shortened Footnotes. Check out that section and see if it is what you are looking for. If you need any more help, or that was not what you were looking for just open another helpme or let me know on my talk page. Monty  845  23:46, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

Gender neutral titles
Where can I find the wikipedia policy on gender neutral titles like "chairman"? TheNgeveld  17:27, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Do you have a more specific question? There is some information on gender-neutrality in Wikipedia here, here if this helps. Mato (talk) 17:38, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
 * The second reference was what I was looking for. Thanks.  TheNgeveld   00:06, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Chart from a spreadsheet
I've taken census data and put it into a spreadsheet so I could easily make a chart. It seems that if someone wanted to extend it, they'd like the spreadsheet. How would I upload both the picture of the chart and the spreadsheet together so that they stay together? TheNgeveld  17:30, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
 * For what do you want to use a spreadsheet? We are here at wikipedia and use wikimarkup. Best for your purpose... mabdul 19:57, 3 May 2011 (UTC)


 * I want to use a spreadsheet because I have no idea how to use wikimarkup to make a chart, and I can make spreadsheets do most anything I want them to do. Perhaps someone can direct me to an example of a chart generated from wikimarkup?  TheNgeveld   00:03, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
