Re: V 1.0

Hi! Thanks for the welcome notice. I've not decided on what exactly to do for now, but would rather stick to article quality. For now, I would try and help out in identifying South Asian related content of prime importance that needs to go in v1.0, as well as assessing articles in terms of importance and priority. If time permits, I would also review core topics for comprehensiveness. =Nichalp «Talk»= 07:47, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Tropical cyclones WikiProject Newsletter #10

Number 10, March 4, 2007

The Hurricane Herald

This is the monthly newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The Hurricane Herald aims to give a summary, both of the activities of the WikiProject and global tropical cyclone activity. If you wish to change how you receive this newsletter, or no longer wish to receive it, please add your username to the appropriate section on the mailing list.

Storm of the month

Cyclone Favio near Madagascar
Cyclone Favio near Madagascar

Cyclone Favio developed well to the east of northern Madagascar on February 12 and moved to the southwest as it developed. The storm did not significantly intensify until February 19 when it was just off the soutern coast of Madagascar, but rapidly intenstified soon after to its peak with 185 km/h (115 mph) winds. Favio turned to the northwest and hit Mozambique worsening the floods already occuring in the country. Favio claimed at least 4 lives and destroyed thousands of homes.

Other tropical cyclone activity
There were a total of 6 tropical cyclones in the southern hemisphere during February. Five of these, including Favio, were in the South West Indian Ocean.

  • The only other storm in the Australian region was Cyclone Nelson which formed at the end of January in the Gulf of Carpentaria before it hit Queensland.
  • Cyclone Dora was active in January and reached its peak as an annular cyclone on February 3 with 185 km/h (115 mph) winds.
  • Cyclone Gamede was an unusally large storm that prompted the highest level of cyclone warning on Réunion and brought strong winds to the island on February 27, causing a bridge to collapse.
  • Neither Enok towards the start of the month or Humba near its end, had any impact on land.

Member of the month

Cyclone barnstar

The February member of the month is Miss Madeline. Miss Madeline is responsible for many of the projects featured lists such as List of Category 5 Pacific hurricanes and List of California hurricanes. She has also put serious work into many of our Pacific hurricane articles since she joined the project as one of its founding members. Recently she has worked on 1996 Pacific hurricane season, bringing it from a stub-class article to a Good article candidate.

Comments wanted on project talk Many discussions that potentially have far reaching impact for the whole project are carried out on the project's talk page. However, only a fraction of our active contributors actually engage in those discussions. If you add the project page to your Watchlist and keep an eye on discussions there to monitor upcoming changes, even if you don't participate in those discussions it would help both yourself and the project as a whole. For instance, at the moment the primary infobox templates such as {{Infobox hurricane}} are in the process of being deprecated and replaced by new versions which do the role more effectively.

Happy Spread-the-funny and-slighty-random-love day!

:) pschemp (talk) 01:29, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

You may wish to replace the link in User:Titoxd/UserPage/Neutrality as all of Essjay's user sub pages were deleted at his request and it is now a red link. Just thought I'd let you know :). Cheers! --Nick—Contact/Contribs 07:27, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

E-mail

Not sure if you have had a chance to check your e-mail yet, but I did send you an e-mail. Just thought I should let you know on the off chance that you have a separate account for Wikipedia related mail. I hope you have a most wonderful day! Kyra~(talk) 14:19, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Watchlists?

Hi Titoxd. I thought I'd ask you a techy question rather than WP:VPT. My watchlist includes pages that I have never watched, as well as apparently showing me new page creations (sometimes?). Why is this, has there been some 'clever' change in the last few months that I missed? For example, I appear to be watching User:Mogthetormentor, though the page has only existed since yesterday, and the watch/unwatch button on that page does say "watch". Is there some proto-intelligence involved? I have switched off "enhanced recent changes" in my prefs. Splash - tk 21:53, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Ok, thanks. My watchlist looks more familiar today, I guess I got a server barf. Splash - tk 13:00, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Concerning your Admin Coaching assignments

Your name is still listed at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Volunteers. The department is heavily backlogged with student's requests for coaches, and we need your help!

Note that the instructions may have changed since the last time you checked, and the department now follows a self-help process...

If you don't currently have a student, or if you believe you can handle another one, please select a student from the request list at Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Requests and contact them. See the instructions on Wikipedia:Admin coaching. Good luck.

If you are no longer available to coach, , please remove yourself from the volunteers list.

Thank you.

A modification of Image:Unclesamwantyou.jpg would be really nice... :) Nice job with this, by the way. Excellent idea. Titoxd(?!? - cool stuff) 06:13, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your suggestion. I'll see what I can do. Not sure the image would really fit into the banner-ad shape, but I can certainly make one for WP:PR – Qxz 06:15, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Well, I was thinking something along the lines of that, mostly to serve as a recruiting tool, and that is the iconic image for recruiting... perhaps a slight fade/zoom would work? Or perhaps Image:Kitchener-Britons.jpg... same pose, different subject. Titoxd(?!? - cool stuff) 06:18, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Peer Review
I came up with this. Any good? – Qxz 18:08, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Excellent. :) One little thing I noticed on #3, though: It says "Good Articles" and "Featured articles". The capitalization should be consistent on those. Titoxd(?!? - cool stuff) 19:01, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Indeed it does. Well spotted; one moment, I'll fix it – Qxz 19:06, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Re: Dude

Heh, I know, I'll try. Actually, while I'm here, could you do a history merge for Hurricane Bertha (1990)? As you might have seen, Storm05 copied and pasted the storm history from my sandbox, so could you do a history merge for this with this? If you do that, I'll be able to relax more easily :) Hurricanehink (talk) 15:19, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, although now Storm05's edits are actually needed ;) And don't worry, right now I am at the cool library relaxing while browsing, so I am very relaxed :D Hurricanehink (talk) 19:42, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
??? Check again. Bertha's page currently only has what I did to it. Hurricanehink (talk) 19:45, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Cool. Now I can relax. Hurricanehink (talk) 19:52, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Heh, the hurricane capital of the United States with my relatives. I've got some personal stories of the baddies over the past few years, and I'm gearing up to get some serious articles done for the likes of this state. Later. Hurricanehink (talk) 20:00, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
You think Avila is still around at the center? No way! He's like the catcher in the starting lineup of the baseball game, and he needs to rest up while it's still spring training. He's probably off with the rest of the crew in the Caribbean. I can just imagine it - Avila and Franklin pulling a prank on Proenza, Knabb and Beven are playing golf, and Stewart sitting in a hammock. :D Hurricanehink (talk) 23:07, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

WP1.0

Would you be an expert in the updates / willing to appear on WW to discuss said updates? It likely would sound better than the rest of us randomly babbling with half the information and a quick glance at the wikipage -- Tawker 06:01, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

admin username changes

Thanks for your updates to this page and making those clerk notes as you clerk name changes - that was a good idea :). I was becoming overwhelmed at the rate of name changes of admins and other major contibutors since usurpation began and felt such a page was needed just to stay on top of it all. I hope it is useful to others as well. Cheers, NoSeptember 13:28, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Version 0.5, blogs, WW etc

Hi Tito, thanks for writing that very nice description of the assessment process for Planet Wikimedia - that's a neat site, I hadn't seen it before. Let me know if you want me to write about the Version 0.5 release or anything (that's currently being pressed/burned by the way). Give me something specific that you want me to write about - thought I'm pretty busy until after my talk on wikis at the Chicago ACS conference on 25th.

Are you interested in attending an IRC meeting for WVWP? As you probably know, we plan to switch the focus over to assessing "orphaned" (no project) articles, so the meeting is to plan how best to do this. There are four of us signed up right now, including Gflores (remember him?), who recently returned as Mahanga.

I can do a Wikipedia Weekly piece if they want me to, I did one on V0.5 in episode 7, I think. Maybe I could see if BozMo and/or Polimerek (Polish DVD) could make it too. Let me know if they want me to set something up, I have Skype (I got it for my last WW). Cheers, Walkerma 02:40, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

vandalism

Thanks for being on the ball and getting rid of that disgusting image. I was trying to figure out which template it was from but you were quicker than me.

Planet Wikimedia

Hiya,I saw your posts on Planet Wikimedia, and was wondering if you would check out my wiki and let me know what you think of it. I've been trying to develop it for a few months now, I used a lot of articles on wikipedia to get it going, but my goal is to eventually build a community of information freely available for stock investors. If you have the time, my web address is www.wikistock.com . I appreciate your time, Thanks--Rovo79 04:12, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

DYK

Updated DYK query Did you know? was updated. On 19 March, 2007, a fact from the article Hurricane Katrina (1981), which you recently nominated, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.
--ALoan (Talk) 11:19, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

script

Titoxd, you suggested that the assessment script include projects already on the talk page. I've added this feature (and I think it's nifty). If you aren't using it, you may want to take a look. –Outriggr § 00:13, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Just tried it on Hurricane Nora (1997) with both Firefox and IE (7). Worked as expected; too bad you have trubbles. –Outriggr § 00:23, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Templates for 1.0 and GA

Thanks for checking over my GA template. Do you think it's ready to put out "live" at {{GA}}? I don't want to mess up almost 2000 talk pages if it's not....! Also, thank you for the new 1.0 script, this looks very nice. Walkerma 07:24, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Re: {{WP1.0}}

I've done some cleanup of the code; hopefully that helps things a bit. Some things to look at:

  • I'm not quite sure what the mess of category-generation code at the bottom is supposed to do, but I'd hazard a guess that there's a much simpler way of doing it.
  • The core/coresup parameters, at least, ought to be mutually exclusive.
  • I would suggest that the assessment only be displayed "above the fold" in cases where "orphan=yes" is set, and be hidden otherwise.

Incidentally, I suspect that MILHIST will be starting to move on the WikiReader issue from our end in fairly short order. ;-) Kirill Lokshin 12:29, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, ok; as I said, there's a simpler way of doing it. ;-)
(I've also gone ahead and added the "small" parameter, as well as moving everything into the collapsible block in most cases.
As far as WikiReaders go, we're just starting up discussion now (having been prompted by your blog, obviously); I'll try to keep you posted once we actually start doing something practical. Kirill Lokshin 18:22, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

GA template

Tito, if you don't mind, could you roll out the new GA template? I'm afraid that I'll mess something up. Don't forget to remove the colons from before the category generation code. If you really don't want to yourse;f, let me know. Thanks a lot, Walkerma 05:19, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Sure. Let me do that right now. Titoxd(?!? - cool stuff) 05:20, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

H:Page name variables

About a month ago, you copied H:Page name variables over from meta. I was about to move it over to Help:Page name variables (see [1]), but it's pretty much the same thing as Help:Magic words. So, is this really needed at all? --- RockMFR 03:17, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Update

Hello Titoxd, just to let you know I've canceled out the double [show]/[hide] glitch on Template:TOChidden which you can see on the Buddha article. Cheers. (→Netscott) 07:01, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm trying to... I suspect there is a way as I didn't think it was going to be possible to lift off the [show]/[hide] functionality. I'll let you know if I turn up anything. Cheers. (→Netscott) 07:06, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Funny I forgot about the opposite problem where a person who would have clicked a TOC [hide] elsewhere and came to TOChidden and clicked [show] only to find the TOC hidden with nothing to click to make it display. I've rectified this now as well. See you. (→Netscott) 07:52, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Change in Template:DRV top

Just a heads-up that I made a small change in the {{DRV top}} (or {{drt}}) template: the level 4 header, with a (closed) marker, is now part of the template. So any discussion can now be closed by simply replacing the four equal signs on each side of the title into the the template text: 

 ====[[Title]]====

is changed to 

 {{subst:drt|[[Title]]|Decision}}

which turns into

Title (closed)

Hope that makes closures a bit easier. Comments and questions please here. Take care, trialsanderrors 08:43, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Tropical cyclones WikiProject Newsletter #11

Number 11, April 1, 2007

The Hurricane Herald

This is the monthly newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The Hurricane Herald aims to give a summary, both of the activities of the WikiProject and global tropical cyclone activity. If you wish to change how you receive this newsletter, or no longer wish to receive it, please add your username to the appropriate section on the mailing list.

Please visit this page and bookmark any suggestions of interest to you. This will help improve monitoring of the WikiProject's articles.

Storm of the month

Damage from Will

Hurricane Will developed from a tropical wave to the east of the Caribbean Sea and intensified. It crossed over Jamaica and re-emerged over water a few days later. The storm intensified into a hurricane and an eye began to develop. Will became a major hurricane over the Gulf of Mexico and made landfall on the vulnerable Gulf Coast of the United States soon after. To date, Hurricane Will has claimed over 350 lives and is directly responsible for about $5 billion of damages; of which an unknown amount was insured. Despite the damage, it is not expected that the name will be retired by WMO.

Other tropical cyclone activity

  • After threatening the Eastern Seaboard for some time, Hurricane Hink has turned away and the NHC has cancelled all warnings associated with the storm.
  • The 2007 Pacific typhoon season began with Tropical Storm Kong-rey forming on March 31.
  • There were a total of 7 cyclones in the southern hemisphere: Becky in the South Pacific, Indlala and Jaya in the Southwestern Indian Ocean and Odette, George, Jacob and Kara in the Australian region. Indlala killed at least 80 and left over 100,000 homeless; whilst Cyclone George was the worst storm to affect Port Hedland in over 30 years.

The April member of the month is HurricaneIrene. Irene began contributing to tropical cyclone articles on Wikipedia in August 2005, but ran out of steam and left after barely 2 weeks. However, Irene's influence on the project has been wide-reaching. Her efforts led directly to two articles attaining featured status and her legacy inspired many of our most active editors to write a plethora of good articles on a wide range of storms.

The Main Page

The WikiProject has a narrow scope, so it is not surprising that our articles are not frequently selected for Today's featured article. Most destructive cyclones are likely to be mentioned on the In the news column. We have no real control over that, but we should submit suggestions when appropriate.

However, we can do a more lot more to place our content in the other major section of the main page: The Did you know column. In the past month we created over 30 articles. Of these only 2 were even submitted as suggestions for DYK. We can do much better, please submit DYK entries for new articles when you do the initial assessment.

Thanks, one last thing: Adds the page to the following categories: * [[:Category:WikiProject Texas]] at the end, should be removed, and there is a [[Category:WikiProject Texas|{{PAGENAME}}]] right above the long class category list that should be removed.

La primera corrección es porque "fluido" se pruede traducir como "fluid", pero quieres decir "fluent"; la segunda corrección es que "Wikipedia inglés" no es una manera adecuada de escribir "English Wikipedia". Para ver por qué, escribe esa frase remplazando el texto con "Wikipedia in English"—es una manera completamente correcta de escribir la oración. Sin embargo, "Wikipedia English" no lo es, ni en inglés, ni en castellano.

¡Muchas gracias! Desafortunadamente, la mayoría de mi clase domina el español, pero intentaré hacer todo lo posible :-) También, ¿estás cierto que es "flyente"? Mi diccionario no lo reconoce. —METS501 (talk) 11:00, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

GW

Hi. With respect to the poll on t:GW. You're the only not-the-usual-suspect to vote for option 2. So I want to try to address However, removing all mention of controversies means the article neglects areas that the non-scientific reader.... Which controversies? We have the solar-vs-greenhouse stuff. Do you mean the politics, ie what-to-do? William M. Connolley 19:48, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

The issue with the article is that yeah, the science is ok, but there is more to global warming than just science. Yes, there's politics, as an example. What is the historical background of the debate? Who are the major players involved in this? More importantly, why is it a matter of dispute? Why are a few groups so opposed to this being a real issue? Why is it important?
What bugs me the most about the article is that you introduce ideas (e.g. "A hotly contested political and public debate also has yet to be resolved, regarding whether anything should be done, and what could be cost-effectively done to reduce or reverse future warming, or to deal with the expected consequences." but they're not developed in this article. And by developed, I don't mean writing an article within an article, to call it that—it would be perfectly acceptable to use {{main}} and a link to relevant daughter articles, if a lede-like paragraph summarizing a particular daughter article is included in the prose of Global warming. Having the science be completely separated from the rest of global warming's implications is an artificial and unnecessary boundary, IMO, as the global warming article should be a standalone introduction of the topic. Right now, it looks more like Science of global warming, which is unfortunate. The Kyoto Protocol section is a good example of how the other relevant new sections should look.

OK, that mostly answers my question: your original "controversies" is ambiguous: you mean the non-science bits. But as you say: thats done in sub articles, and is clearly linked with appropriate text. I'd be happy enough for a somewhat longer link, but at the moment I think you're voting for rather more than a short summary to be added William M. Connolley 08:51, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Again, I think a paragraph for each major section (like with Kyoto) would suffice, per WP:SS. That, and a navigational template, would solve most of the issues in the article, IMO. Titoxd(?!? - cool stuff) 20:03, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Tropical cyclone rainfall forecasting

I have one thing left to address (I believe), which would be finding the reference for the 16 inch rule from my 2000 AMS Hurricane Conference presentation. That should be done later today. Otherwise, all the original comments you made per the GA review should have been answered. =) Thegreatdr 15:01, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Storm help

Your expertise needed at Wikipedia:Featured article review/Great Lakes Storm of 1913. Saludos, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:26, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Will do, just later, as I'm a bit busy right now. Titoxd(?!? - cool stuff) 20:04, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Chekhov

Thanks for helping defend the article! (Re your comment on the Talk page the other day, I ended up finding another way round the ambiguity by calling Pavel "Chekhov's father" in that paragraph.) qp10qp 02:49, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Unicode:FRAK. Sorry. Thanks for the extra eyeballs. I'll figure something out, but oh, find and replace is so good--what will I do without it! Anyway, thanks. jengod 03:57, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for blocking 69.105.176.217. I had just submitted him to AIV, when he was pulled off the list because you blocked him. Great work!! - Hairchrm 23:14, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
