Hi,

I'd like to take the opportunity to advise you on two matters which, being a member or former member of the [[WP:NI|Northern Ireland WikiProject]] or it's [[WP:Bel|sister project on Belfast]], you might be interested in the following submission about a recent terrorist attack [[Wikipedia:Northern Irish Wikipedians' notice board#News]].

I'd also like to take this opportunity to ask for your help in reviving the Northern Ireland WikiProject. Given that there are only a small number of Wikipedians from Northern Ireland or interested specifically in the region, the project needs all the help it can get.

Cheers,

== Invitation to Wikipedia meetup in London ==

[[Image:WikimediaUK-logo.png|right|150px|Wikimedia UK logo]]

'''Date:''' 13:00 ''onwards'', Sunday 10 August 2008

'''Venue:''' Penderel's Oak pub, Holborn WC1 [http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=283-288+High+Holborn,+London,+WC1V+7HP&sll=54.162434,-3.647461&sspn=9.581486,40.693359&ie=UTF8&ll=51.518184,-0.11541&spn=0.002484,0.009935&t=h&z=17&iwloc=addr map]

'''More information:''' [[Wikipedia:Meetup/London 12]]


Hello,

I noticed that you have listed yourself as a [[:Category:Wikipedians in London|Wikipedian in London]], so I thought you might like to come to one of our monthly [[Wikipedia:Meetup/London|social meetups]]. The next one is going to be on Sunday 10 August, which might well be rather short notice, but if you can't come this time, we try to have one every second Sunday of the month.

If you haven't been before, these meetups are mainly casual social events for Wikipedia enthusiasts in which we chat about Wikipedia and any other topics we fancy. It's a great way to meet some very keen Wikipedians, but we'd also love for you to come along if you're interested in finding out more about Wikipedia, other Wikimedia projects, or other collaborative wiki projects too.

The location is a pub that is quite quiet and family friendly on a Sunday lunchtime, so hopefully younger Wikipedians will also feel welcome and safe. Alcohol consumption is certainly not required!

Although the meetups are popular, many UK-based editors still don't know about them. It would be great to welcome some fresh faces, so I hope you can come along.

Yours,

[[User:Jdforrester|James F.]] ([[User talk:Jdforrester|talk]]) 09:27, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Hello Coolhawks you appear to be still adding links to articles that have to be removed either because they are not needed or link to non relevant content. I appreciate you are trying to help but you need to understand that what you are doing is creating extra work for others and could be seen as disruptive. It would be a shame to see you blocked for disruptive behaviour so can you please STOP adding links until you understand the relevant guidelines and policies. Thank you.

== Improper categorisation ==

Please note, adding pages to [[:Category:Wikipedia semi-protected pages]] does not automatically protect pages and you do not have the authority to protect pages. If you think that a page warrants protection you need to [[WP:RPP|request page protection]] so that an administrator can protect a page. You have inappropriately added a number of articles to [[:Category:Wikipedia semi-protected pages]] today and I would suggest that you self-revert the inappropriate addition on pages where this has not already been done by other editors. --[[User:AussieLegend|AussieLegend]] ([[User talk:AussieLegend|talk]]) 07:49, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

== Subcategories ==

Regarding several of your recent edits (e.g., [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Penguin&action=historysubmit&diff=355749157&oldid=354269262][http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Little_Penguin&diff=prev&oldid=355749362][http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Emperor_Penguin&diff=prev&oldid=355750407][http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Montgomery_Burns&diff=prev&oldid=355771302][http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=London_Borough_of_Islington&diff=prev&oldid=355784317][http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Peter_Griffin&diff=prev&oldid=355762575][http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Emirates_Stadium&diff=prev&oldid=355784664][http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Citizen%27s_arrest&diff=prev&oldid=355786672][http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Law_enforcement_in_the_United_Kingdom&action=historysubmit&diff=355787438&oldid=355103409]), please note that it is ''generally'' unnecessary for an article to be in a category ''and'' one or more of its subcategories (see [[Wikipedia:Subcategorization]]).
In each of the cases linked, you added a high-level category when the article was already in one or more of its subcategories; for example:
* [[Penguin]] --- [[:Category:Antarctic birds]], [[:Category:Flightless birds]], [[:Category:Penguins]] and [[:Category:Seabirds]] are direct or indirect subcategories of [[:Category:Birds]]
* [[Little Penguin]] --- [[:Category:Birds of South Australia]], [[:Category:Birds of Tasmania]] and [[:Category:Birds of Western Australia]] are subcategories of [[:Category:Birds of Australia]]
* [[Montgomery Burns]] --- [[:Category:The Simpsons characters]] is a subcategory of [[:Category:The Simpsons]]
* [[London Borough of Islington]] --- [[:Category:Local government in London]] and [[:Category:London boroughs]] are subcategories of [[:Category:London]]
* [[Peter Griffin]] --- [[:Category:Family Guy characters]] is a subcategory of [[:Category:Family Guy]]
* [[Emirates Stadium]] --- [[:Category:Sports venues in London]] is a subcategory of [[:Category:London]]
* [[Citizen's arrest]] --- [[:Category:Criminal law]] is a subcategory of [[:Category:Law]]
* [[Law enforcement in the United Kingdom]] --- [[:Category:Law enforcement in the United Kingdom]] is a subcategory of [[:Category:United Kingdom]]

==Categories==
The best way to think about [[WP:Categories]] on Wikipedia is a structured hierarchy, like a large pyramid, with articles contained within small granular categories at the bottom and these categories contained in fewer, but increasingly larger categories as we get closer to the top. The model of [[subsidiarity]] applies, so articles are always contained within the lowest suitable categories. An alternative model would be the "keywords" model (as used on sites like flickr.com) where an article is placed in all categories that are associated with it, even if the connection is vague. Wikipedia does not use this model. [[User:MRSC|MRSC]] ([[User talk:MRSC|talk]]) 17:00, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

== Subcategories, again ==

I have noticed that you are more frequently applying lower-level subcategories to articles, and I want to express my appreciation to you for that. I want to ask, however, that you take even greater care to not add redundant categories. For example, it was not necessary to place:

# [[Kiss (band)]] in [[:Category:1972 establishments]] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Kiss_(band)&diff=prev&oldid=359926249 diff]) because the article already is in [[:Category:Musical groups established in 1972]];
# [[Quiznos]] in [[:Category:1981 establishments]] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Quiznos&diff=prev&oldid=360612028 diff]) because the article already is in [[:Category:Companies established in 1981]];
# [[Rita's Water Ice]] in [[:Category:1984 establishments]] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Rita%27s_Water_Ice&diff=prev&oldid=360805370 diff]) because the article already is in [[:Category:Companies established in 1984]];
# [[Council Rock High School South]] in [[:Category:2002 establishments]] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Council_Rock_High_School_South&diff=prev&oldid=360893463 diff]) because the article already is in [[:Category:Educational institutions established in 2002]];
# [[Harrods]] in [[:Category:1834 establishments]] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Harrods&diff=prev&oldid=361340873 diff]) because the article already is in [[:Category:Companies established in 1834]]; and
# [[Samantha Cameron]] in [[:Category:British people]] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Samantha_Cameron&diff=prev&oldid=361567082 diff]) because the article already is in [[:Category:English businesspeople]].

I also ask that you be more cautious with adding categories ''in general'', for example:
# The [[Chinstrap Penguin]] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Chinstrap_Penguin&diff=prev&oldid=359557592 diff]) is a bird found in the [[Antarctic]] region (the region surrounding the South Pole), but ''not'' a bird of the [[Arctic]] (the region surrounding the North Pole).
# [[Nick Clegg]] should not have been placed in [[:Category:British atheists]] ([http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Nick_Clegg&diff=prev&oldid=361768395 diff]) without a source in the article to confirm this; see [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons#Categories]].

== Railway station categories ==

Hi, regarding these edits: {{diff|Wembley Stadium railway station|365857272|363014675|1}}, {{diff|Grantham railway station|prev|365858413|2}} - we don't normally use <code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>Category:''xxxx'' establishments<nowiki>]]</nowiki></code> on railway stations: these categories have special subcategories <code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>Category:Railway stations opened in ''xxxx''<nowiki>]]</nowiki></code>. Since the two stations concerned were already in [[:Category:Railway stations opened in 1906]] and [[:Category:Railway stations opened in 1852]], there was no need for them to also be in [[:Category:1906 establishments]] and [[:Category:1852 establishments]], so I have reverted both. --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#d30000; background:#ffeeee">Red</span>rose64]] ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 17:17, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

==Liverpool F.C. wiki==
Hello, I am the lead sysop on the Liverpool F.C. wiki. It is a wiki dedicated solely to Liverpool F.C.. We aim to make the ultimate database for the club we all love. Since adopting the incredibly inactive wiki about a month ago we have greatly increased the article count and modernized it from it's previous state. The problem is there are not many active members on the site and we need more for the site to properly grow. It is well organized and on it's way to be a great site we just need more editors to expand. It is based on Wikia's network of wikis. Like Wikipedia it is free to use and the editing process is exactly the same. If you know how to edit Wikipedia you will know how to edit the Liverpool F.C. wiki. Now for the question you may be asking yourself. Why edit there? Wikipedia has articles on Liverpool. This is true. At the Liverpool wiki it is all about Liverpool. We allow editors to edit anything about Liverpool no matter how trivial. We allow edits on reserve and academy players, and even things as trivial as the fitness coaches for the year 2011. We also do not lock pages to registered users. That means if you have something to say about Steven Gerrard you can click edit and not view source and actually write something. I would love for you to come by and check the wiki out. Feel free to edit any page. Every time you click edit your ARE helping this wiki grow. Thanks for taking the time to read this! http://liverpoolfc.wikia.com/wiki/Liverpool_FC_Wiki  --[[User:Coffeeclub213|Coffeeclub213]] ([[User talk:Coffeeclub213|talk]]) 02:27, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
