[edit] Nonblocking Minimal Spanning Switch

This article has been tagged for cleanup for about a year. The technical jargon in the article definitely needs to be explained and checked over by someone who is luckily enough to understand this stuff. Stewart Adcock 18:59, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

I don't think I can do this task. Unassigning. Alex Nisnevich 05:02, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
Added to User:RJFJR/Desk (I'll see what I can do, may take a while.) RJFJR 03:00, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] CVSS

Common Vulnerability Scoring System. It's a computer article.

  • Needs wikilinks. (now has some links, though they are a little sparse)
  • term: "vendor agnostic"
  • term: "metric" (now linked(


It was tagged for CV so I did a rewrite. It needs wikilinks and some more work. RJFJR 20:34, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Pretty much cleanedup unless someone can suggest further areas for work. RJFJR 04:58, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Taskforce prject closed. RJFJR 14:44, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Quantum error correction

Quantum error correction has been listed on cleanup for about a year. It needs some minor cleanup, and expert attention to make it readable for non-experts. Kerowyn 00:25, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nyquist plot

The Nyquist plot article is too short and what is there reads like 5 different sentances on one subject with no connection between them.

We should have more information about this including a sample plot which should be easy to generate using free software tools. Flehmen Work with me 19:02, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Todo

  • (perhaps) the order of the paragraphs
  • the flow of the article(It reads as a series of sentances/ideas strung together)
  • Add a diagram of the Nyquist plot

[edit] Cornelius Harnett

This biography is about an American merchant and revolutionary. It has been tagged for cleanup since November 2004. It mainly needs converting from a long series of bullet-points into readable prose.

Looks like a job for User:Phroziac/Desk Please accept or reassign to me. Stewart Adcock 13:11, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
Accepted. --Phroziac(talk) 14:21, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
Argh. I need to cleanup my real life. Oh well, atleast it's started. Re-assigning to Stewartadcock. --Phroziac(talk) 12:53, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
  • status: Phroziac moved a bulleted list of significant accomplishments to the talk page of this article. They need to be incorporated into the article.
Stewart, if you don't want it or are too busy you can assign it to me and I'll see about reintegrating those points. Otherwise I've got other things I can work on. RJFJR 01:58, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Reassign to User:RJFJR/Desk RJFJR 19:05, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

My library is seeking books on this person from Inter-Library Loan. (Apparently they found two in Connecticut, both reprints of early 20th century books by the same author).


[edit] Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce/Evaluation, Comments and Closing

This subpage is for requesting opinion on what needs to done to cleanup a taskforce article including whether it is ready to be closed.

Interested members can add {{Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce/Evaluation, Comments and Closing}} to their desks to place this page on it.

Comments can go on either the article subpage or this page (in which case they will be moved to the subpage peridoically).

[edit] Loving Female Authority

  • A simple read of the article will demonstrate why it needs to be cleaned up, particularlar the latter portion of the second part of the article user:64.236.170.4
  • Tagged as stub in both sociology and culture. RJFJR 15:26, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
  • It has a POV tag on it. RJFJR 15:26, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
  • The POV tags keeps being removed, while the POV problem seems to remain. Bergsten 18:47, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Yup, POV and poor grammar. This article actually concerns things that interest me, but how to clean it up effectively is beyond me. I think it may be a deletion candidate. --Marnen Laibow-Koser (talk) (desk) 05:49, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
  • I think the grammer can be dealt with. I may take this up.Eagle (talk) (desk)21:31, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
  • I did a lot of low-level rewriting. If someone feels the need to remove any templates, then by all means, do so. AnonMoos 22:44, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Thank you. You really helped with the NPOV problem

[edit] Samantha Fox

This article is very badly written, can't someone rescue it? And what is with the Canadian bent? Hardly relevant to an article on someone who was an icon in Britain at the height of her fame.

Added to User:WayneRay/Desky RJFJR 04:01, 7 July 2006 (UTC) (declined, prefers to concentrate on history and poetry).

Added to User:Bibliomaniac15/Desk RJFJR 17:05, 7 July 2006 (UTC) (declined, busy)

Added to User:Heidijane/Desk RJFJR 03:05, 9 July 2006 (UTC) (accept)

I have made some changes to this article, but I don't really know enough about the subject. ARe there any other suggestions about ways of improving it? Thanks a lot. --Heidijane 10:50, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Meta refresh

Initial tasks:

  • Go through all the open Cleanup Taskforce issues.
  • Find issues that are waiting for double-checking to be closed; double-check them and close as appropriate.
  • Find isses that have not been touched for 30 days or more, and reassign them to a different taskforce member. (Preferably someone who has expressed interest in the subject, has room on their queue, and is an active editor.)

Updates:

  • Initial assignment to User:Randy_Johnston/Desk. -- Beland 03:15, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • I completed Round 1 of the meta refresh by removing all entries that were submitted before May from the main page and moving it to the closed page that I thought have made a significant improvement since they were submitted. I also changed the templates on the talk pages to the closed mode. --Randy 02:21, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Round 2 and 3 completed by properly closing items that were completed through May. Also, the main WP:TASK page was cleaned and not necessary things were removed. All of the items submitted before May 15th still need to be given to another user's desk. Randy Johnston 19:29, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Passing on to User:Linuxbeak/Desk. Please try to get all tasks submitted before June either completed or deemed closed. Thanks! We seem to have some members who have just forgot about their CT duties. --Randy 22:02, 9 July 2005 (UTC)
  • I have just closed everything that was finished in April, May, or June, and left notes on people's talk pages where they haven't done anything in over 30 days. After a reasonable amount of time, if people don't respond to personal messages, they can be marked as inactive members and their tasks reassigned. -- Beland 06:37, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Assignment backlog

There is now a backlog of articles to be assigned. I started in on them, but I have a lot of things on my plate at the moment, and I could use some help. The first to be assigned should probably be the ones already listed here. But it's worth noting that there are 618 articles under Category:Cleanup by month from 2004 alone, which is more than enough to fill everyone's desk to capacity. I think it would actually be a good idea to do that. The fact that some people don't have anything to work on probably means we are losing out on harnessing their volunteer energy.

    • Did a little work a while ago. Removing from my desk as I can't devote enough time to this project. - Trevor MacInnis(Talk | Contribs) 15:25, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] mid-October

There is no longer much of a backlog of tasks needing to be assigned, but we have been working on some tasks for rather a long time. I think it is worth keeping this meta-task open so that we can avoid the development of a big queue and keep things moving along.

I don't think it is sensible to keep this task on any desk for so long so I am assigning it to User:RJFJR's desk - but would be happy to take it back at a later date if needed. As of now this task is therfore on the desks of User:Tony Sidaway and User:RJFJR. Have fun! Andreww 05:35, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce/Members

Are you actually active and awaiting assignments? There are many open and assigned tasks that have stagnated. It would be sensible to reassign these to active members of the cleanup taskforce, but it is not immediately clear who these people might be.

If you are not active, please consider removing your details from the members lists. Otherwise, please add yourself to the following list (edit here). If you are currently assigned a task that you do not wish to (or can not) complete, please remove it from your desk and add it to this list.
