[edit] The Black Hand
Hi there. I do not believe that consensus reached on the deletion of the Black Hand. I believe you made an error in deleting that page, and would like to give you an opportunity to reverse the decision, as it improves the thouroughness of Wikipedia--Nick Dillinger 08:51, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you
Hi! Just wanted to say thank you for your good luck message for my finals when I went on my wikibreak. They're over now - fingers crossed for the results! Thanks again... ConDemTalk 11:20, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Laurence Olivier
I'm now dedicating all of my recources towards getting LO to FA. If you would like to help, it would be much appreciated. I've done quite a bit of work on it, but, it is a gargantuan task. Also, Richard III (1955 film) is a FAC at the moment, and any comments would be appreciated. On the FAC page, that is. ....(Complain)(Let us to it pell-mell) 09:21, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sir Alan Wilson
What is the point of having two wikilinks to Corpus in the article? There's one up at the top, which is why I removed the one at the bottom. --GuillaumeTell 09:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] A short Esperanzial update
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)
Hey. I'm doing a survey to find the most liked songs of all time. So far I have over 300 songs in the list. I was hoping that you would be willing to contribute your top ten.

Hi Whouk. As you closed the above AFD as no consensus, I think it's good form to let you know I'm going to take it to WP:DRV - I even tried to warn any closing administrator not to just count votes, as AFD is not a vote, and take into account the quality of arguments. Clearly (in my biased-against-gamecruft viewpoint) that didn't happen, and so it's off to deletion review. Thanks, Proto///type 12:05, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- The trouble with AFD is that a special interest group (such as the RuneScape project members) is able to block vote keep on anything relating to their area of interest. Unless an administrator is able to make tough calls and exercise their judgement to apply long-standing and non-negotiable policy (such as WP:NOT) over the views of a special interest who will say anything - even barefaced lies - as long as it keeps their cruft on Wikipedia, the problems will continue.

[edit] eyewitless.com
Yo!
I know everyone must say this, but I think you've been hasty ! Everyone thinks we fans ONLY have opinions on Doctor Who. A link to my site is relevant on that basis, i.e the link is implicit not explicit. Maybe there are people out there who LOVE doctor who like me, but dont what to ONLY read about doctor who.
Go on, let me off with this one, please ! It's a perfectly legitimate non-commercial site.. posted on the premise that it's by a fan but NOT who content-centric. how about I list it at the bottom?
Awaiting your consideration....

[edit] John Lumic
My apoligies. I got the cast list for John Lumic not from www.unitnews.co.uk/forum/ archive/index.php/t-1113-p-2.html who, in turn, got their source from Outpost Gallifrey who, earlier on, indicated that the Mirror Universe version of John Lumic would appear in the episode Army of Ghosts, though not as the Cyberman creator his counterpart was. James Random Beg for an Audience
I'm good thankyou, just editing as usual. I had to re-insert the Sally Phelon cast listing, because I know that she's at least in it, since that's been on the Bill for ages and an Email from the BBC told me that she was listed as being Sally in their production notes.
What you been upto, pal? James Random >< Respond
[edit] you rock!
you are the type of person who makes wikipeidia work!
keep up the good work, fight the good fight and ...

[edit] Stub sorting Barnstar
Greetings. There is a Barnstar for stub-sorting up for proposal here. If you'd like to participate in the discussion, we'd much appreciate it. Thanks, and have a great days. :) SynergeticMaggot 18:22, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Kristin Linklater
In Kritin Linklater article, why did you remove Ontario? According to www.kristinlinklater.com she was vocal coach at Stratford, Ontario between 1964 and 1978. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cervino (talk • contribs) . —Whouk (talk) 12:01, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Kristin Linkalter
There is no Guthrie Theatre in Stratfird Ontario. The Guthrie Theatre is in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Shakespeare Festvial in Stratford Ontario is sometimes merely referred to as "Stratfrod, Ontario." Kristin Linklater has worked at these two different theatres in two different places. I know this first hand and it is substantiated by her web site.
[edit] August Esperanza Newsletter
|
The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential! |
What's New?
|
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs. |
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas. |
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.

- In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
- The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
- Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
- Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
- Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
- There is a page for discussing the front page redesign.

Hello, I just dropped in a day before to wish you a very happy wiki-birth day. Have a nice time here. --Bhadani 16:38, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sabbatical officer
Will, I seem to remember that there's some legal reason for the duration of sabbatical service normally being capped at two years, but I can't find anything except the IND's visa rules for sabbs. There's an annoying fact tag on the Sabbatical officer page, which I'd be keen to shift. Any ideas? Hope all is going well :-) Tom Harris 21:55, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] September Esperanza Newsletter
|
Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors! |

September elections are upon us! Anyone wishing to be a part of the Advisory Council may list themselves as a candidate from 18 September until 24 September, with the voting taking place from 25 September to 30 September. Those who wish to help with the election staff should also list themselves! |
Appreciation Week, a program currently in development, now has its own subpage! Share your good ideas on how to make it awesome there! |

[edit] November Esperanza Newsletter

Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach.
Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.

What's New?

The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one! |
A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts. |
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.

- There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia.
- The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested!
- In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias.
- A discussion of Esperanza's role in Wikipedia is being held, with all thoughts of all Esperanzians wanted!
- Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello.

[edit] Eddie Robson's birthdate
Hey, Whouk. I noticed that you removed the month and day of birth from Eddie Robson, with the edit summary "(reduce birthdate to year for privacy)". Is there a guideline or policy somewhere supporting this? Did Robson personally ask you to do this? I ask because an anon has restored the month and day, and I wasn't sure how to proceed. Thanks! —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 17:18, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
