The Military history WikiProject Newsletter : XLII (August 2009)

The Military history WikiProject Newsletter Issue XLII (August 2009)

From the coordinators

The voting phase of the eighth coordinator elections, for the October–March term, started on 13 September and will run until 23:59 Sat 26 September.
Each candidate garnering twenty or more endorsements will be appointed, to a maximum of fifteen. This election has a strong field of sixteen candidates running, offering many skills and representing all aspects of the project.
The Contest Department is going from strength to strength and drew a massive number of entries in August (see the results below). If you haven't fielded any entries yet, please think about doing so. It's great fun! Roger Davies ^talk 14:02, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Project news

People with an interest in clearly presenting battle information, and First World War buffs, will find the discussion about a new campaign box for the Battle of the Somme interesting.
With the recent increase in enthusiasm, Wikipedia-wide, for creating "outline" articles, there's an ongoing discussion here. The idea is to produce guidelines for overview articles for Milhist editors and reviewers.
Proposals have been made to introduce a new self-scoring "honour" system for Contest Department entries. Contributions, especially from regular nominees, are welcome.

Contest Department

The Contest department has completed its twenty-ninth month of competition, with 145 articles entered by 13 editors. Sturmvogel 66 was placed first again this month with an amazing 101 points, closely followed by Georgejdorner at 98 points. They receive the Chevrons and the Writer's Barnstar respectively. Parsecboy commendably came third with 88 points, with honorable mentions going to AustralianRupert (68), Kumioko (66), Ed! (32), Ian Rose (26) and radek (11). Our thanks go to AM, David Underdown, Work permit, Yellow Monkey and Wild Wolf, who also fielded entries.

Awards and honours

The Milhist A-Class medal goes to: Parsecboy for König class battleship, SMS König, and Derfflinger class battlecruiser; and to Ed! for 7th Infantry Division (United States), 24th Infantry Division (United States) and I Corps (United States).

Editorial: Getting to FAC via A-Class - some interesting new facts

Well, it’s official. Milhist articles have a much better than average chance of success as featured article candidates. MBK004 has done some useful number-crunching following the fortunes of the 97 Milhist featured article candidates submitted between January and July this year. The research shows that 70% of Milhist articles were promoted against an overall average of 51%.

Looking behind the figures, some other interesting facts emerge. First, 84% of our promoted articles had successfully passed a Milhist A-Class Review before going on to FAC. Second, of the 29 Milhist articles that failed, less than half (41%) had had an A-Class Review. Third, the 97 Milhist articles accounted for 16% of all FACs submitted between January and July of this year.

The clear lesson is that if you want a string of featured articles to your credit, you may find Milhist's A-class Review process to be of benefit to you! Roger Davies ^talk

Arbitration case regarding the Eastern European mailing list

The Arbitration Committee has passed a motion to open a case to investigate allegations surrounding a private Eastern European mailing list. The contents of the motion can be viewed here.

You have been named as one of the parties to this case. Please take note of the explanations given in italics at the top of that section; if you have any further questions about the list of parties, please feel free to contact me on my talk page.

The Committee has explicitly requested that evidence be presented within one week of the case opening; ie. by September 25. Evidence can be presented on the evidence subpage of the case; please ensure that you follow the Committee instructions regarding the responsible and appropriate submission of evidence, as set out in the motion linked previously, should you choose to present evidence.

Please further note that, due to the exceptional nature of this case (insofar as it centers on the alleged contents of a private mailing list), the Committee has decided that the normal workshop format will not be used. The notice near the top of the cases' workshop page provides a detailed explanation of how it will be used in this case.

For the Arbitration Committee,

Username for SOC0317

Piotr,

My name is Erika Moul, and I am a student in your SOC0317 class, and I am very confused by the Wikipedia assignments. I have made a username (Emm66) and have gone through the tutorial, but I do not understand how you will be tracking my activity. I hope that you can clear this up for me so that I am able to meet the Sept. 21st deadline for the Wiki assignment. Also, my group members are Angela Han and Mariah J(?).

Further, when I posted my blog commentary this morning, I noticed that my comment to another student's entry from last week does not appear on the blog. Do you have record of my making a second posting last week? (I had posted it on Saturday afternoon.) If there was a computer error and you did not receive the post, is there any way that I can make it up? If not, how will this affect my grade? Since the blog comments are 50% of our grade, I am very concerned about this matter. Thank you for your understanding - please advise.

Thank you for your time and attention. Sincerely, Erika Moul username: Emm66 | email: emm66@pitt.edu

Wiki Edit

Hi Piotr, I made an edit to a wiki page, as instructed to do so by September 21. I made an edit to the USA swimming page under 'individual meets.' My edit was "Times that are achieved at these types of meet may only be used in US swimming (qualifying times and seeding times for other meets) meeting. If a time is achieved at a US meet, it may not be used as a time for PIAA qualification times an visa versa." The page is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USA_Swimming#Invitational_Meet
