CaptainEek lectures new crewmembers on the importance of not going overboard

Ahoy! Welcome aboard the SS Wikipedia, it do be yer captain speaking! You are hereby commissioned into CaptainEek's crew as a deckhand. If ye be crafty and good at catching sources, it won't be long before you graduate with a captainship of yer own.

Nah but seriously, glad to have you as an adoptee, you look like you care and want to get more involved. I'm excited to work with you. My personal favorite way to help folks become better editors is to have you work on articles, at your own pace, and I can help you through the process. That means I can guide you on sourcing, formatting, content philosophy, and more. So if you could provide a list of 3-5 subjects, either with existing articles or that you'd like to create, we can go from there! If you'd like to get involved in backend type work, we can also explore that, but I think having a solid grasp of content creation is critical first.

Whenever you want me to look at something, make sure you ping me or drop a note on my talk page. Smooth sailing, CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n! 15:37, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@CaptainEek: Happy to be aboard, I will take a look for some good anchor to lay! (Seriously, I will take a while to grab some content to create.) -Kylie Take a look | What have I doneQuestion? | Talk to me 15:45, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@CaptainEek: While I collect my articles to create, I ask you to choose an article for me to edit/make! It might be a while until I grab all my articles, but it will happen! -Kylie Take a look | What have I doneQuestion? | Talk to me 20:30, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
KylieInTheSkylie, Well you say you like plants, and luckily there are many stub class plant articles. If you take a gander at WP:PLANT (the plant wikiproject) you'll see a list of our articles and their ratings, as well as a bunch of other useful resources, including a template for a standard article. In perusing, I found a few articles that would be good starting places. Aloe bakeri is a stub article which could easily be expanded into some sections with just a source or two, discussing the botanical description, its history, its habitat, etc. Same goes for Chloris virgata, which is one I've been meaning to expand. I took these off of this list, which shows all medium importance plant stub articles. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n! 23:33, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Updates to Spoken Wikipedia

[edit]

Hello KylieInTheSkylie! I hope this message finds you well and healthy! I am working this weekend on the Spoken Wikipedia project pages to get them in line with other projects. I just wanted to inform you in advance that some pages may be created. deleted, moved, or otherwise. If you have any questions, please feel free to post them on my talk page.

  • An RfC is open to discuss the next steps following a trial which automatically applied pending changes to TFAs.

Technical news

  • IP addresses of unregistered users are to be hidden from everyone. There is a rough draft of how IP addresses may be shown to users who need to see them. This currently details allowing administrators, checkusers, stewards and those with a new usergroup to view the full IP address of unregistered users. Editors with at least 500 edits and an account over a year old will be able to see all but the end of the IP address in the proposal. The ability to see the IP addresses hidden behind the mask would be dependent on agreeing to not share the parts of the IP address they can see with those who do not have access to the same information. Accessing part of or the full IP address of a masked editor would also be logged. Comments on the draft are being welcomed at the talk page.

  • Following an RfC, editors indefinitely site-banned by community consensus will now have all rights, including sysop, removed.
