From the Editor
Ichthus is one of the ways that the WikiProject Christianity’s Outreach department helps update our members. We have recently added some new sections to the newsletter. Please let us know what you think of the new departments, and if there are any other suggestions for departments you would like to see. And if you have anything you would personally like to add, by all means let us know. The talk page of the current issue is probably the best place to post such comments.

With that, I wish you all happy reading!

Church of the month


by User:JaGa
Mission Santa Clara de Asis

Vote for the project mascot
We had last month asked our members to help "bring into the fold" Wikipe-tan as the project's mascot. Voting will take place this month for which image we should adopt at Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Outreach/Wikipe-tan. Please take a moment to review the images and vote for whichever is your favorite, or, if you so prefer, suggest an additional one.

By John Carter

Calendar
Thie coming month (mid-July through mid-September) includes days dedicated to the honor of Mary Magdalene, James, son of Zebedee, Ignatius Loyola, Saint Dominic, Joseph of Arimathea, and the Transfiguration of Jesus.

I believe
... in the tradition of Thomas the Apostle, Mar Addai, and Saint Bartholomew. I believe that Jesus had two essences (or natures), human and divine, unmingled, that are everlastingly united in one personality. I am a member of the Assyrian Church of the East.

You have worked a lot on it and improved really well. I remember the time when the article was in a worse condition. Since I have failed it, now I'll improve that article for the 2nd GA as the problems can be addressed in good 2-3 weeks. I have got 4 GAs under my belt, but initially, 3 of my noms were fail. Don't give up and I hope that we can collaborate for this GA :) — TheSpecialUser TSU 01:45, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

Ok, that sounds like an excellent idea. I would be happy to collaborate with you on this.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 19:20, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

I appreciate the help in tweaking the article. For what was a redirect just one day ago, it is starting to look like a respectable article. Dennis Brown - © Join WER 18:03, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

You're welcome. Would you be happy with the hook I proposed? I'll find another nom I can review for the Quid pro quo requirement.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 18:06, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
I didn't see the hook, but will trust you to it. I prefer a second set of eyes, for objectivity. I've been adding a little more here and there. I'm pretty happy with the direction it is going, think I'm going to swap out one image, etc. and keep at it. Dennis Brown - © Join WER 18:15, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

WikiProject Wikify: July Newsletter and August Drive

EdwardsBot (talk) 21:25, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

All fifths

Hi Gilderian!

I reverted your move, because your suggested title is inconsistent with the titles of the other guitar tuning pages.

Your suggested move has merit, but we should have consistent naming for the regular tunings. Please ask for a discussion at either music-theory or guitarists wikiprojects, and then leave a note at the other wikiproject.

If your proposal reaches consensus, then I shall be happy to move the other tunings, following the community's will. Kiefer.Wolfowitz 18:57, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Kiefer.Wolfowitz 18:52, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Okay, I'll do that :) I changed it, following WP:BRD, as I knew the other tunings did not follow this, but as it could be confused with the orchestral instrument tunings an exception could be made. Thanks for the notification though :) --Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 18:59, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
Indeed, fifths is the most important for other tunings.
However, fourths is used for bass guitar.
Major thirds is used in Eastern Europe for many instruments, I believe that I've read....

Per Wikipedia talk:Did you know#Pre-expansion approval?, are you interested in starting an improvement in your sandbox in order to make it eligible for DYK? The article will take much more than 5 days for a full expansion (which should be much more than 5 times). Ryan Vesey 20:09, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

In principle, yes, but I'm on holiday in Utah at the moment, with only sporadic internet access, so I probably won't be able to help until about Sep 2 or something. If you want to create a new sandbox in either your own or my userspace, by all means, go ahead.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 14:41, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
I'll start it at User:Gilderien/Field. I might not be able to assist come September. I'm not sure how busy I'll be. Ryan Vesey 01:15, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
