== Images at [[Encaustic tile]] ==

You added the images [[:File:Bankfield Museum 080.jpg]] and [[:File:Bankfield Museum 081.jpg]] to this article last July. I am not sure that the photos are of genuine encaustic (2 or more colour) tiles, but of a mosaic. I have raised this at [[Talk:Encaustic_tile#Encaustic_or_mosaic]], so you may wish to comment there.

==Photo's==
Hiya!  Like myself you appreciate good photo's. I've just deleted what I though was a very poor quality, out of focuss, low resolution photo that was probably taken on a mobile phone, from the Education section of the [[Huddersfield]] article and also the same image from the [[University of Huddersfield]] article. However the same 'photographer has also placed an image of the Kingsgate shopping centre entrance to the Huddersfield article. That is passable as a small image however when taken to its full resolution its pretty grotty and I feel it is detrimental to the article. I wondered if you would care to take a look and comment before I get accused of being to bold in deleting them! <lol> [[User:Richard Harvey|Richard Harvey]] ([[User talk:Richard Harvey|talk]]) 19:30, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
:He has a fair few uploaded to commons, see his gallery [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Mtaylor848], some are good, which is why I am surprised those I deleted were actually uploaded. Some are good street scenes, whilst others are debatable in their relevance to Wiki. I would say he's not yet got his eye in, in that the camera does not show what his eyes are seeing, with regards to getting the right image perspective. Though thats probably due to a need for a better quality camera than a Kodak EasyShare (which have a poor optical lens for anything more than a few yards away) to reduce the curvature of walls and lamp posts, etc. I haven't seen the template you mentioned, I will have to go on a hunting session. I will leave the Kingsgate image until I find something 'none Xmassy' to replace it. I don't feel a [[University of Huddersfield]] image is required on the article, partly as there is an article on the university, but having one educational establishment image there sets a precedent to include others such as [[Kirklees College]] and [[Greenhead College]].

;Thanks

* A very big {{Thank you}} to all the editors who labour away quietly and help make this WikiProject what it is; no edit goes unnoticed.

* To members who have added suggestions to the ToDo list at [[Portal:Yorkshire|Yorkshire Portal]]. 

* To the football and rugby editors who have done stirling work in  keeping abreast of the top clubs.

;'''Priority Articles'''

The '''top priority articles''' that have been identified to date are as follows -

* [[Bradford]] • [[East Riding of Yorkshire]] • [[Henry Moore]] • [[Kingston upon Hull]] • [[Leeds]] • [[North Yorkshire]] • [[Ripon]] • [[Sheffield]] • [[South Yorkshire]] • [[Wakefield]] • [[West Yorkshire]] • [[William Wilberforce]] • [[York]] • [[Yorkshire]] • [[Yorkshire and the Humber]] 

The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.

; Aims

After discussion at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire]] in April 2008.

'''Specific aims''' for the project are:-

*To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See below)
*To recruit more active editors (See Member News)
*To bring our top level article [[Yorkshire]] up to [[Wikipedia:Featured articles|Featured article]] status
*To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least [[Wikipedia:Good articles|Good article]] status
*To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive (See this month's feature below)
*To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

and apropos of the above a '''2010 New Year''' article improvement drive/collaboration is being organised.


;Assessment

This month we focus on article assessment as a lot of work has been going on behind the scenes on this. In January the new version of the bot used for generating the information was deployed. For the observant you will have noticed the changes made to the assessment table on the left, it now has details of all of the pages other than articles that are tagged with the project banner. Now you can see counts of the categories, templates, files and other miscellaneous tagged pages that the project is looking after. The article count earlier in the newsletter does not include all of the newly reported classes as they are not really articles. 

A new facility is the ability to click on any of the numbers and get a list of the articles that are in the intersection of the article importance rating with the quality rating. For example this enables you to see all of the articles that the project has rated as high priority stub-class articles. This is something that was not readily available prior to this revision of the bot.

The quality ratings are only valid at the time they are done and may be out of date as some of the assessments were done over two years ago. Many of the articles have changed since they were rated so it would be good if members could re-rate them when they see substantial changes to a particular article or flag it up for someone more experienced to take a look at and revise the quality rating if appropriate. Many of the articles were rated before the introduction of the C-class rating so may be over rated as B-class articles or under rated as Start-class articles.

Other changes have taken place in the formatting of the log files and more is to come. The data is now stored in a database off wiki and so tools can be written to generate further reports, have customised rating levels for projects etc. The bot is also able to get through the articles quicker and so is reporting changes daily rather than about weekly as with the previous version.

; '''Please bear in mind...'''

[[Image:Ambox style.png]]The project is subscribed to  a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Yorkshire/Cleanup listing|'''clean-up listing''']] which lists articles tagged with various clean-up tags that need attention. The listing is refreshed by a bot on a regular basis. The latest listing was created on '''December 11th'''.

*''Monitoring is essential''<br />Use the [[Special:RecentChangesLinked/Wikipedia:WikiProject Yorkshire/watchlist|watchlist]] to keep an eye on changes to the project's articles so that vandalism and spamming can be removed as quickly as possible.
 
*''Moves''<br />Please be careful when performing articles moves and ensure that you also move all the talk sub-pages and update any image fair use rational. Otherwise the archives, to-do lists, assessment comments and GA reviews get lost and the image may be deleted as it has an incorrect FUR.

; Aims

After discussion at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire]] in April 2008.

'''Specific aims''' for the project are:-

*To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See below)
*To recruit more active editors (See Member News)
*To bring our top level article [[Yorkshire]] up to [[Wikipedia:Featured articles|Featured article]] status
*To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least [[Wikipedia:Good articles|Good article]] status
*To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive (See this month's feature below)
*To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

and apropos of the above a '''2010 New Year''' article improvement drive/collaboration is being organised.


;Biographies of Living People

This month we need to concentrate efforts on Biographies of Living People (BLP) as detailed at [[WP:BLP]]. There is currently ongoing discussions about what should be done with nearly 50,000 unsourced articles on living people that have accumulated and being tagged with the {{tl|BLP unsourced}} template. Options range from deleting all of them immediately to a period of grace for the articles to be sourced. There is also discussions as to what should be done, going forward, with new articles on living people that are created without sources. Do have your say on these discussions [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Biographies of living people|here]], if you are interested in biographical articles.

As a project we have not tagged many biographical articles but looking at the articles of people under the Yorkshire category an estimate of 150 of these are tagged as unreferenced. This does not include those related to the various sports people who play for the many teams in the area. Obviously those articles relevant to the project we would want to save from the axe and so we need to concentrate our efforts on referencing articles that have been tagged as unreferenced. Once articles have been given some references then the tag can be changed to {{tl|BLP sources}} or removed, if full referencing has been done.


;'''WikiProject Yorkshire Collaboration of the Month Project'''

The March 2010 articles selected below are the editors choice as no one came up with any other suggestions on the project talk page.

Please nominate future articles for improvement at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire]].


; '''Please bear in mind...'''

[[Image:Ambox style.png]]The project is subscribed to  a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Yorkshire/Cleanup listing|'''clean-up listing''']] which lists articles tagged with various clean-up tags that need attention. The listing is refreshed by a bot on a regular basis. The latest listing was created on '''December 11th'''.

*''Monitoring is essential''<br />Use the [[Special:RecentChangesLinked/Wikipedia:WikiProject Yorkshire/watchlist|watchlist]] to keep an eye on changes to the project's articles so that vandalism and spamming can be removed as quickly as possible.
 
*''Moves''<br />Please be careful when performing articles moves and ensure that you also move all the talk sub-pages and update any image fair use rational. Otherwise the archives, to-do lists, assessment comments and GA reviews get lost and the image may be deleted as it has an incorrect FUR.

I went bold and [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User%3AStorye_book%2Fmonobook.js&action=historysubmit&diff=350103277&oldid=289094219 added] a DYK check script to your account. Revert me at will. After bypassing browser cache (Mozilla/Safari: press Ctrl-Shift-R, Internet Explorer: press Ctrl-F5), you should get a button "DYK check" under "Toolbox" in the left toolbar of your screen. The button will appear only when it is appropriate to use the tool (say, I don't see it while typing this message). The documentation is [[Wikipedia:Did you know/DYKcheck|here]]. To check article expansion I do the following: click "DYK check" individually, on the two appropriate versions of the article (before and after expansion, as the article history indicates) and then divide the numbers manually - the tool fails too often on autochecking.

So even though it is a little late: Congratulations for all those well earned DYK's!.

After all, i became a vandalism patrol after i read a swear word in a random article over 2 years ago - and frankly, i kind of came to enjoy patrolling. By the way, if you are interested in learning - have you ever considered submitting one of your articles for [[WP:GA|GA review]] - or perhaps even [[WP:FA|FA review]]? If they get approved you could display a shiny GA or FA badge next to your DYA awards - and if they don't get approved, you will receive feedback on how to improve your article's.

::::: Im afraid i'm of fairly little value regarding the judgment of GA and FA articles - So far i have made just a couple of stubs and one DYK article. For me, DYK is the limit of my writing skills (or at least the level i can be bothered with). However, seeing you made a ton of DYK's in a (very) short time, along with the fact that the article's are excellent, makes me confident you should at least try it. Even IF an article doesn't make it, it will always yield some constructive feedback that may help improve this or future article's. Just give it a try!

:In such cases, I provide detailed edit summaries and try to talk to the editor. Then (i) I either get convinced I was wrong or we develop a compromise (ii) the editor responds but I'm not convinced - then I seek advice of other editors (e.g. at a corresponding project or article talk - those some talks are rarely visited) (iii) the editor goes on with blank edit summaries and without replying - report to [[WP:ANEW]] or [[WP:AIV]] (if their changes are vandalism).

:: Thanks for that.  I'll copy this conversation to my talk page for future ref.  I've also informed [[user:Keith D]] about it, as he watches and protects a lot of the Yorkshire geography pages. He suggested that I put a message on the nuisance IP's talk page, since others had left messages there already.  So we'll see what happens.--[[User:Storye book|Storye book]] ([[User talk:Storye book|talk]]) 23:58, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
