== Invitation to participate in a research ==
I have revised the [[Senate House (University of London)]] article which you gave a GA review to reformat the lists as prose as requested and have added citations. I have renominated it - would you care to have another look? --[[User:DavidCane|DavidCane]] ([[User talk:DavidCane|talk]]) 22:18, 18 June 2009 (UTC)


Hello,
:You should add this article to the [[WP:GTAR|good article reassessment]] for re-review. --'''''[[User:The New Mikemoral|<span style="color: #0095B6">The New</span>]]''''' [[User talk:The New Mikemoral|<span style="color: #1E90FF">Mikemoral</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/The New Mikemoral|♪♫]] 21:02, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
::I assume you meant to link to [[WP:GAR]] rather than [[WP:GTAR]]. I will do so. --[[User:DavidCane|DavidCane]] ([[User talk:DavidCane|talk]]) 21:22, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
:::Actually, having looked at that page, it doesn't seem appropriate to list it there as it isn't currently a good article. --[[User:DavidCane|DavidCane]] ([[User talk:DavidCane|talk]]) 21:37, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this '''[https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/962595?lang=en anonymous survey]'''.
::::I would suggest relisting the article. --'''''[[User:The New Mikemoral|<span style="color: #0095B6">The New</span>]]''''' [[User talk:The New Mikemoral|<span style="color: #1E90FF">Mikemoral</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/The New Mikemoral|♪♫]] 22:02, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
:::::It's on the [[Wikipedia:Good article nominations#Art and architecture|Arts and Architecture]] list at the moment. --[[User:DavidCane|DavidCane]] ([[User talk:DavidCane|talk]]) 22:36, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

A good week for all involved - however some really need to pick up the pace, lounging on very low scores. Come on, it's half way in now!

== obsello page ==

Hello. I recently nominated the obsello page for review as GA article in an attempt to protect what I think is an important part of the spirits information on wikipedia. I understand your ruling and rushed the page to review in an attempt to gain attention to the page when it was under attack by an industry PR firm. Although he left when confronted, the page is now being threatened by an experienced editor. I do think the page should stay and be edited, and as an absinthe buff can say this is a very important brand. This fact is substantiated by virtually all the industry refrences posible, notable critics, and the NY Times among newspapers.

The editors argument is that the references sighted in the discussion page are not sufficient to justify the relevance of the brand and I feel this could not be further from the truth. I think the page does need work, and was likely written by industry interests. I also think that those facts do not warrant deletion simply an edit. I have volunteered to edit it and been met with hostility. So far I seem to be the only contributor to the absinthe pages or the spirits project involved and I am feeling a bit outgunned here in respect to wikipedia know how. However this editor does not know what he/she is talking about with regard to spirits. He/she argued that important critics and industry authorities were not reliable third party sources and demanded evidence as to the importance of the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. For a person with intimate knowledge of spirits these are illogical ideas. It is like questioning the validity of the oscars and recommending the deletion of a film page.
I was wondering what your thoughts were and if you would be willing to weigh in on the page and possible do a bit of homework investigating the validity of the references?[[User:Nightcafe1|Nightcafe1]] ([[User talk:Nightcafe1|talk]]) 03:14, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research

[edit]

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
