WikiProject NASCAR proposed standards
[edit]WikiProject NASCAR needs your help! We are in the process of forming our proposed standards which, when complete, will hopefully become a Wikipedia guideline. The guidelines will help editors understand Wikipedia consensus about things like which NASCAR-related articles meet notability standards. Please stop by and let us know what you think!

A short Esperanzial update
[edit]As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.
As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.
Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Notes to you
[edit]I noticed your discussion on Nascar, I'm not quite sure what you speak of related to spam on the site I suggested but I did just that suggest it. I have no affiliation to that site, I merely suggested what I feel to be a high quality site where NASCAR fans and enthusiasts can participate in diuscussion and ask questions about NASCAR as where they can not do so here on Wikipedia. I feel it's a valuable addition to the wiki, and the people browsing for info would find it of quality and usefulness. It's simply a forum. I'd reccomend that you do not let any of your own personal ill feelings or miss judgments sway you from allowing a valuable resource that wiki surfers might really enjoy visiting, it's about them not you or I or our opinions. I just thought it was a nice site. Please work with me here. Thanks! --Edited By a Professor of Life 14:32, 11 October 2006 (UTC).
Note from Edward Neal. You have accused me of writing nonsense on the 9/11 post. I did not write those things on there. I would like you to do further research before you accuse people of such things. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 131.212.155.7 (talk) 12:50, 13 October 2006.
- I'm very sorry about this... I use a program called VandalProof to deal with vandalism, and the warning seems to have gone to you in error... I can see you didn't do it, so I've deleted your warning. Again, very sorry about this. -- SonicAD (talk) 17:54, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject Ice Hockey August 2007 Newsletter
[edit]
WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear SonicAD! You are receiving this newsletter because you have signed up as a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey. The purpose of this newsletter is to update on the goings on of the project, as there have been major changes, and a lot of new recognized content in the past few weeks. If you are an inactive user, you probably won't recognize the new and improved state of the WikiProject! From the project, Maxim. New recognized content By Maxim
Article Improvement By Maxim Upon some discussion on the WikiProject talk page, the Article Improvement Drive page was revamped by Krm500 and Maxim. It was renamed Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey/Article Improvement, and it includes two section. The first section is called articles in dire need of improvement. It list articles, usually important, that are in very poor shape. The second section is called requested help. Users list an article they request help improving a certain article, which will facilitate collaboration, which is the aim of any WikiProject. There is one article currently listed there, Henrik Lundqvist, here. The goal is to at least get it to Good article status. Diacritics By Maxim In the past few weeks, there has been quite heated discussion about the use of diacritics in article name. The current guideline is using diacritics in the pages of articles of all player names which require them, but redirects are exempt. Task forces By Maxim This task force was initiated by Krm500. Its current goal is to improve Henrik Lundqvist to Good or Featured article status. It covers all Swedish clubs, leagues and competitions and associated articles, players and coaches that are Swedish, or have played/coached for a Swedish club, and arenas in Sweden. They plan to eventually operate as a sort of a sub-project, which will have its own articles for creation, ranking importance and quality of articles, and co-ordinate article improvement. Its current members are Krm500, Bamsefar75, and CLAES. This task force was initiated by Bsroiaadn. Its goal is to improve New Jersey Devils to Featured Topic status. Although it currently meets the required article count, the task force wishes to improve it further. Its area of coverage is very similar to the Sweden Ice Hockey task force. Its members are Bsroiaadn, JHMM13, FutureNJGov, Sportskido8, Michael Greiner, JRWalko, and Soxrock. Requested Images By Maxim

WikiProject Ice Hockey newsletter
[edit]
WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear SonicAD! You are receiving as you are a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey There's been more new thing going on at WP:HOCKEY, and I think this will help you to stay informed. Since the last newsletter sent out in August, there's been great changes. Read on to find out! Maxim(talk) This just in:
New recognized content By Maxim Especially due to the featured topic drive, there have been many new featured lists promoted concerning NHL awards. Here's the full list of all the 13 FL's promoted since the last newsletter.[1][2]
There have been no new good articles or featured articles. Maurice 'Rocket' Richard Trophy has been given A-Class status due to multiple issues raised at FLC.
Did You Know? By Maxim
Featured Topic Drive By Maxim Started by User:Scorpion0422, the aim of this drive is to make NHL awards a featured topic. A featured topic is basically a set of very high quality articles (good articles and featured articles/lists). In this case, the topic is NHL awards. Many users have helped, including Scorpion0422, Resolute, Serte, Hasek is the best, Maxim, Croat Canuck, Spike Wilbury, FutureNJGov, and T Rex/Dinosaur puppy. The progress has been very good; there are 12 featured lists promoted, and 2 good articles:
Check the project page if you are interested in helping out. Although it's closer to being done than not, there's still work to be done. The next topic that might be tackled is Stanley Cup, but this remains purely speculative and in discussion. |

Thought you might be interested that this special page was overhauled today. (CTO) Brion Vibber has promised to add a search box. I've restored the link from the category listings. We considered you suggestion, but Brion pointed out that the special page has useful information that cannot be found anywhere else -- it lists the number of articles in each category and also lists red-linked categories. -- ☑ SamuelWantman 09:34, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
Time's champion
[edit]Here you go:
User:SonicAD/Time's Champion-Wafulz (talk) 16:20, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hey, Sonic. I just came across this userified article while checking to see if anyone had managed to create a page for Time's Champion. There was a lot of info there that I hadn't been previously aware of: what was your source? I see that Time's Champion has now been reviewed at Dreamwatch — if there are any other reviews by reliable sources, perhaps we could try to establish notability and resurrect the page. Has it been mentioned in Doctor Who Magazine? —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 02:33, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
- I had it userfied after it got AfD'd, because at that time there were no sources... the article had primarily been written by Chris McKeon himself. I'd only done so with the intent of copying it over to the TARDIS Index File, since there wasn't enough sourceable info to go on an article here. And I don't think there will be for a little while, DWM hasn't covered it yet... McKeon has been on the DWO podcast, and has his blog with info on the book, but other than that and the Dreamwatch review (that I'd not yet seen), there's not much there to establish notability. I'd wait at least until Bouncelot gets up a discontinuity guide on his site, and a couple more published reviews show up to even try. The first print run was only ~400, and while there's been a reprint, it sounds like the max it could be is 3-400. Despite it being Hinton's last novel, I think there'll be trouble meeting notability standards. -- SonicAD (talk) 02:54, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
- Sounds reasonable. If the info in the userified version came from McKeon himself (and hasn't been repeated anywhere reliable), we'd probably have to strip the article to what's verifiable anyway. But if DWM does cover it, I think that might make it pass the notability bar (although the requirement that the book be "available at a dozen or more libraries" might be a problem). —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 03:56, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

This has been done because the page is either pure vandalism or a blatant hoax (see CSD). If you think the tag was placed in error, please add "{{hangon}}
