Good work creating new articles and contributing to exisiting ones. When you make contributions, be careful that you don't include copyrighted material. Copyright rules are complicated, so take some time to review Wikipedia:Copyrights. A good general rule is that most things on the internet are already copyrighted by someone else, so they cannot be contributed to wikipedia. Again, content from webpages is usually copyrighted and cannot be added to wiki. Keep up the good work, and feel free to contact me with questions. Feco

[edit] Move

Hello, note that copying the content of an article into another article, and redirecting, destroys the edit history necessary for the GFDL; what you are looking for is the "move" command at the top. 119 03:01, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Naming conventions (military units)

Hi. In case you didn't see my reply at our previous discussion, I've set up a draft for Wikipedia:Naming conventions (military units), and hope you will join the discussion. — B.Bryant 00:45, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Pictures

You've uploaded some nice pictures, for example Image:Korsunpanther.jpg. It would be nice if you could give the sources. Are these scanned from a book or downloaded from the web? Gdr 22:05, 2005 Apr 20 (UTC)

[edit] Did you know?

Did you know has been updated
and a fact from the article Götz von Berlichingen, which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you have another interesting fact to submit, then please suggest it at the section's talk page.

[edit] Blue Fox

Do you plan to write articles for Blue foxes 1 and 2? Just wondering because now we have redirects pointing at nothing at Operation Blaufuchs 1 and Operation Blaufuchs 2, that is usually not a good idea. I figured that these operations were so insignificant (basically just moving troops around) so that they could just redirect to Operation Silberfuchs. -- Jniemenmaa 07:23, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Section names

Section names are typically written in this form:
== Section name ==
rather than
== Section Name ==

No idea why but it is custom on Wikipedia. Pavel Vozenilek 18:12, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Molobo

Hi, are you in being involved in a possible arbcom case with user Molobo, looking into some of his edits. You might be interested to take a look here Talk:Erwin_Rommel. GeneralPatton 14:10, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

We already have more than 5 users interested in starting an arbcom case against him, however just to be fair we'll give him a little bit of time. I’ve asked some Polish users to try to calm him down and introduce him to our concepts, he is a new user after all, however if he continues being this hostile to the rest of the community, it will unfortunately be our only choice. GeneralPatton 00:56, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
Hi sir, in connection to the molobo case, I’d be interested to know your e-mail as to discuss any further action, since he seems to be continuing with his highly disputable POV edits. GeneralPatton

[edit] Hallo

Ansbachdragoner, I am more then happy to take place in any discussion to reach an agreement.As to dubious claims, please point me to any of them I would be again. happy to engaged in dialog. However I relation to other articles I critical, after seeing that many of them avoid mentioning of war crimes, that are quite easy to find.--Molobo 10:50, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hitlerjugend Division

That's fine with me, I appreciate your explanation and do not have the knowledge to support the contradictory claim, which would be a speculation only, anyway. As I stated on my talk page, I nead a break from this kind of issues and will try to avoid getting involved for the next few days in anything related to history/politics. --Lysy (talk) 06:59, 6 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Herman Goering Div

Elements of the unit took part in Warsaw Uprising: http://www.brwinow.info/index.php?option=articles&task=viewarticle&artid=52 "W dniu 1 sierpnia powstańcy w lewobrzeżnej Warszawie mieli przeciwko sobie:

[edit] Waffen SS

Saying Waffen SS is infamous isn't POV.It is known for its Nazi fanatism and atrocities.I don't think stating that as such it is infamous is POV.Its just confirmation of a fact.Likewise Auschwitz is regarded as infamous.--Molobo 20:36, 20 September 2005 (UTC) In other words you are arguing that Waffen SS isn't know for "having an exceedingly bad reputation"

However it is widely known as such: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0850454255/ref=ase_reenactornet/104-6439099-0960721 In the early 1920s, a tiny group was formed within the SA to serve as Hitler's personal bodyguard. Originally labelled the 'Stosstruppe Adolf Hitler', they later became known as the SS – Schutz Staffeln, or 'protection squads'. From these humble beginnings, the SS rose to a nominal strength of 38 divisions of over 800,000 men by 1945, representing a sizeable portion of Germany's land forces and more importantly a quarter of her tank forces and a third of her mechanised infantry. Martin Windrow provides a splendid in-depth review of the history, uniforms and insignia of the infamous Waffen-SS.--Molobo 20:43, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Holocaust Denial

You are certainly correct in stating that there's a clear difference between Holocaust Denial and Historical Revisionism. It's precisely this distinction that Holocaust Deniers attempt to obscure. Dduff442 08:46, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Theodore von Hippel

Greetings Ansbachdragoner! We worked together briefly on the Erwin Rommel and Battle of Arras (1940) articles. My dear friend Shauri thinks very highly of your WWII German military knowledge and from what I've read of your work, she's right. I've started a biography of Theodore von Hippel, founder of the Brandenburgers. So far, I've not been able to find any further details on the Hauptmann beyond those included in the stub (which I basically plundered from your Brandenburgers article :). I dont even have his DOB/DOD. Was he another victim in the purge of the Abwehr following the July Plot? Did he participate in any of the Brandenburgers' wartime operations? I'd really like to find out and any help you can provide would be appreciated, Thanks:) "Auf, Ansbach-Dragoner! Auf, Ansbach-Bayreuth!" --R.D.H. (Ghost In The Machine) 03:20, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] I will answer

You later, I am very tired and busy at the same time, so I can't give you a lenghty responce, I will only add that the proper term in my view should be bolshevism, since Nazi's used mostly that term, and we shouldn't forget that it was always linked with subhumans and Jews.Right now the article on Waffen SS presents the aim of the Waffen SS as "fight against evils of communism". While certainly some people were attracted by such slogan the article doesn't mention that it was just one of the many and Waffen SS also had as a goal the fight against Jews and other subhumans which also attracted volunteers.In order to be precise and not to push one vision of the formation the sentence more fitting should be : During the war the organisation was presented as a multinational force protecting Europe from the perceived evils of Bolshevism and Jews (see Black Edelweiss), which attracted some ideologically motivated people.

Also national groups were declared aryan not regions so the proper sentence should be : The Reichsführer, with his penchant for medieval lore, envisioned a united aryan 'crusade', fighting to save old Europe from the 'Godless bolshevik hordes' and subhumans[1]. While volunteers from nations which had been declared Aryan were approved almost instantly, Himmler eagerly pressed for the creation of more and more foreign units. The link I gave gives specific evidence that the crusade was made not against "communism" as we understand it in modern times but as it is stated by Himmler http://www.ess.uwe.ac.uk/genocide/ssnur1.htm

. We shall take care that never again in Germany, the heart of Europe, will the Jewish-Bolshevistic revolution of subhumans be able to be kindled either from within or through emissaries from without.

Mentioning that elements of ideology is important for the article, otherwise Waffen SS could be perceived by naive or uninformed reader as founded on well meaning principles that made some mistakes, instead of being organisation founded to fight what was perceived as the Jewish-Bolshevistic revolution of subhumans

As to sentence : While many adventurers and idealists joined the SS as part of the fight against communism, Why not change it to nazi ideology  ? I don't think we could argue that nobody was attracted to SS due to its Nazi ideology, of course If you would like to add that not all were, there is no problem in mentioning fight for independence of certain elements of Waffen SS. But saying that nobody was attracted to SS because of Nazi ideology seems POV.

[edit] Welcome to Esperanza!

Welcome, Ansbachdragoner, to Esperanza, the Wikipedia member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. Redwolf24 runs the spam to keep members up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles.

I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Celestianpower, and guided by the Advisory Committee comprised of FireFox, Flcelloguy, Titoxd, and Karmafist. The next set of elections will be in February, and I would be glad to see you vote, or even consider running for a position.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Celestianpower by email or talk page or the Esperanza talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!

Cheers, Sango123 (talk) 01:42, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] An Esperanzial note

As I remember, the last spam that was handed out was on the 20th of December last year, so I think it's time for another update. First and foremost, the new Advisory Council and Administrator General have been elected. They consist of myself as Admin General and FireFox, Titoxd, Flcelloguy and Karmafist as the Advisory Council. We as a group met formally for the first time on the 31st of Decembe. The minutes of this meeting can be found at WP:ESP/ACM. The next one is planned for tonight (Sunday 29 January) at 20:30 UTC and the agenda can be found at WP:ESP/ACM2.

In other news, Karmafist has set up a discussion about a new personal attack policy, which it can be found here. Other new pages include an introductory page on what to do when you sign up, So you've joined Esperanza... and a welcome template: {{EA-welcome}} (courtesy of Bratsche). Some of our old hands may like to make sure they do everything on the list as well ;) Additionally, the userpage award program proposal has become official is operational: see Wikipedia:Esperanza/User Page Award to nominate a userpage or volunteer as a judge. Also see the proposed programs page for many new proposals and old ones that need more discussion ;)

Other than that, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and wish you an Esperanzially good new WikiYear :D Thank you! --Celestianpower háblame 16:57, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

I would like to thank you for your support for my candidacy for the Military history WikiProject coordinator position. I am now the Lead Coordinator, and I intend to do my best to continue improving the project. If you ever have any questions or concerns regarding my actions, or simply new ideas for the project, be sure to let me know! —Kirill Lokshin 00:08, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Another Esperanzial note...

Hi again Esperanzians! Well, since our last frolic in the realms of news, the Advisory Council has met twice more (see WP:ESP/ACM2 and WP:ESP/ACM3). As a result, the charter has been ammended twice (see here for details) and all of the shortcuts have been standardised (see the summary for more details). Also of note is the Valentines ball that will take place in the Esperanza IRC channel on the 14th of February (tomorrow). It will start at 6pm UTC and go on until everyone's had enough! I hope to see you all there! Also, the spamlist has been dissolved - all Esperanzians will now recieve this update "newsletter".

The other major notice I need to tell you about is the upcoming Esperanza Advisory Council Elections. These will take place from 12:00 UTC on February 20th to 11:59 UTC on February 27th. The official handing-over will take place the following day. Candidates are able to volunteer any time before the 20th, so long as they are already listed on the members list. Anyone currently listed on the memberlist can vote. In a change since last time, if you have already been a member of the leadership, you may run again. Due to the neutrality precident, I will not vote for anyone.

Yours, as ever, Esperanzially,

[edit] Jabo

Werter Herr Ansbachdragoner!

I stand like an ant in the shadow of your impressive military-history oeuvre on these pages!

Since you are the author of the redirect pages Jabo/Jabos, I would like to solicit your opinion on my proposal to reconfigure the Jabo page as a Disambiguation, rather than as a Redirect. As far as I can tell, you are also the only contributor to link to them.

I think my proposal might be defensible with respect to the Principle of Least Astonishment, at the same time confessing a preoccupation with matters anthropological as well as military.

In, passing, though, may I be permitted to note that it jars me a bit to find a German slang term used in each case to refer to allied aircraft, much as if one were to refer to the M4 Sherman_tank as a Panzer. But I must defer to your expertise on that particular diction.

[edit] Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #1

Reach out is a program aimed at allowing users to bring issues that they have had in Wikipedia to a listening, sympathetic and caring audience:
"No one can know how we feel if we do not say. We cannot expect to get understanding if we do not ask for it. No one will dispute that sometimes life's issues are too much for one person. It is fair to say that sometimes Wikipedia's problems fall under the same heading. This is a place where you can bring the bruises that can sometimes be got on this project for attention."
The Stress alerts program aims at identifying users who are stressed, alerting the community of thier stress and works in tandem with the Stressbusters at trying to identify causes of stress and eliminating them.
Note from the editor
Welcome to this new format of the Esperanza Newsletter, which came about during the last Advisory Council meeting - we hope you like it! The major changes are that each month, right after the Council meeting, this will be sent out and will include two featured programs and a sum up of the meeting. Also, it will be signed by all of the Advisory Council members, not just Celestianpower. Have an Esperanzial end of March, everyone!
  1. Future meetings are to be held monthly, not fortnightly as before.
  2. Bans and Access level changes (apart from autovoice) in the IRC channel are to be reported at the new log.
  3. In the IRC channel, there is going to be only one bot at a time.
  4. The charter requires members to have 150 edits and 2 weeks editing. Why this is the case will be clarified.
  5. A new Code of Conduct will be drafted by JoanneB and proposed to the Esperanza community.
  6. The NPA reform idea is to be dropped officially.
  7. Charter ammendments are to be discussed in future, not voted on.
  8. The Advisory Council is not going to be proposed to be expanded by the Advisory Council themselves, if others want to propose it, they will listen.
Signed...

[edit] Deletion of image without notification?!?

Carnildo, I have just noticed that Orphanbot has deleted the image Image:Korsunpanther.jpg. I was not notified, and so was not able to update the copyright information (as I am attempting to do with many of my images uploaded under the

[edit] Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #2

The Barnstar Brigade is a new program aimed at giving more very deserving yet unappreciated users barnstars. It will officially start on 2006-04-09, but signing up is encouraged before this date:
"Here in Wikipedia, there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go un-appreciated. 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 un-noticed. Sadly, these editors often leave the project. As Esperanzians, we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. A project the size of Wikipedia has thousands of editors, so there are plenty of people out there who deserve recognition, one just has to find them. The object of this program is not to flood editors with Barnstars, but to seek out people who deserve them, and make them feel appreciated."
The Stress alerts program aims at identifying users who are stressed, alerting the community of thier stress and works in tandem with the Stressbusters at trying to identify causes of stress and eliminating them.
Information
Welcome to the second issue of the new format Esperanza Newsletter - we hope you still like it! This week, it was delivered diligently by our new dogsbody. MiszaBot (run by Misza13): any execution complaints should go to him. Content comments should be directed at the Esperanza talkpage. Thanks!
  1. The next elections: Approval voting as before and, also as before, an previous leadership member can run. Please submit your name for voting in the relevant section of this page. Voting starts on 2006-04-23 and ends on 2006-04-30. There will be three places up for grabs as KnowledgeOfSelf is leaving Wikipedia. Please see the previously linked page for full details.
  2. The Code of Conduct is now ready for extensive discussion! Specific comments should go to the Code of Conduct talk page, discussion of having one at all should be directed to the main Esperanza talk page.
  3. The current process for accepting proposals for new programs has been deemed fine. All Advisory Council members and the Admin Gen are to endevour to be bold when viewing discussion. If they feel that consensus has been reached, they will act accordingly.
A plea from the editor...
The propsed programs page is terribly underused! Please leave any comments, good or bad, on the page, to help us determine the membership's thoughts on the ideas there.

Hi there,

In future, perhaps use some common sense before requesting images be deleted. This image is quite obviously a period engraving. 1987 is the year the piece was catalogued by the Musées de la Ville de Paris.--ansbachdragoner 23:29, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

The Journée of 13 Vendémaire, Year 4, The St. Roch Church, Honoré Street.

Source: © Photothèque des Musées de la Ville de Paris/Habouzit for 1987 CAR 5607 NB

Yes, can you clarify who has the copyright for that image though, as you have included both a statement that it is public domain as well as "© Photothèque des Musées de la Ville de Paris/Habouzit" Is this an image of a two dimensional work taken in Europe, do you think Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp. applies? Common sense doesn't always apply to copyright law unfortunately, and there is no need to attack me about it. And just to be clear, I didn't request the image be deleted, I requested the source information/license be clarified, so that hopefully we can keep the image. - cohesion 01:17, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

Apologies if i was a tad blunt before, it juist seems a tad overwhelming what with the current Wikipedia trend which is less edits and more copyright paranoia. I deal with 'real-world' copyright law on a day to day basis, and i have yet to come across any organisation or body which operates on as strict and ruthless guidelines as some editors on wikipedia seem to. In answer to your question, yes Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp. does apply to this case, as it is clearly a photographic reproduction of a PD image held by the Musées de la Ville de Paris.--ansbachdragoner 01:27, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

No problem, I understand how it can seem like someone is trying to delete your images. :) I was actually in the process of moving images over to the commons, not trying to delete them. (sometimes the commons people are pretty strict on licensing and it's better if there is absolutely no confusion before the move) I changed the tag based on what you said, feel free to change it back if you think it's not an improvement. - cohesion 01:34, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #3

The Administrator Coaching program is a program aimed at preparing Wikipedians for Adminship or helping them understand the intricacies of Wikipedia better. Recently, changes have been made to the requirements of coachees. Please review them before requesting this service.
This would be something like the Welcoming Committee, but 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. Some might like suggestions about how to learn vandal patrol, or mentoring on taking an article to featured status, or guidance with a proposal they plan to make at the Village Pump, for example. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.
Stressbusters
The Stressbusters are a subset of Esperanza aiming to investigate the causes of stress. New eyes on the situation are always welcome!

[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.

[edit] Image Tagging Image:BayreuthDragHoh.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:BayreuthDragHoh.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -SCEhardT 12:38, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] August Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: To-Do List
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.
  1. 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!
  2. The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
  6. There is a page for discussing the front page redesign.

[edit] September Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Barnstar Brigade
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!
What's New?
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!
The Esperanza front page has been redesigned! Many thanks to all who worked hard on it.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  1. The proposals page has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
  2. Since the program in development Appretiaion week is getting lots of good ideas, it now has its own subpage.
  3. The September 2006 Council elections will open for nominations on 18 September 2006. The voting will run from 25 September 2006 until 30 September 2006. If you wish to be a candidate or a member of the elections staff, please list yourself!
  4. The new Esperanza front page design has but put up - many thanks to all who worked on it!
  5. TangoTango has written a script for a bot that will list new members of Esperanza, which will help those who welcome new Esperanzains greatly!

[edit] November Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Admin Coaching (needs coaches!)
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.
The last AC meeting (full log)
  • The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
  • 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.
