The Novels WikiProject Newsletter: Issue XI - April 2007

The Novels WikiProject Newsletter
Issue XI - April 2007

Project news

The project has now passed the 10,000 article tagged as in scope. It is hoped to see much more effort going into the improvement of these articles. Those of particular concern are those of "high" or even "top" importance/priority that are still only stubs. If any of these are about anything you know about or can quickly research please add what you can.

Member news

The project has currently 217 members, 5 joined & 2 leavers since the last newsletter at the start of March 2007

Other news

A bot compiled list of new literature related pages is now available at Portal:Literature/New pages.
The peer review department of the Novels WikiProject is always open for peer reviewing articles.

Department & Task Force news

We now have five administration Departments which now include an Automation Department which is the home for support and administration of automated update activity. Anyone with such experience and can get involved look in here for work ideas and to make suggestions.
The three task forces are gradually growing but need support to succeed. Also if you have further such ideas for co-operation - also let us know.
- At the Short Story task force we have just started to consider what a standard short story article should ideally include and an article pattern template debate has started here.

Auto list news

Our Auto Generated lists appear to have lost the editor who created and supported them. If any other editors have the ability and are willing to have a stab at producing replacement updates, please let us know.

Current debates

On {{Infobox_Book}} template talk page there was a discussion on adding website links to the template.
Later on more debates opened on adding WikiQuote, then Editors & foreword-contributors and further Serialized books and release date?
Short story article debate has started here as mentioned above.

Special note to spamlist users: Apologies for the formatting issues in previous issues. This only recently became a problem due to a change in HTML Tidy; however, I am to blame on this issue. Sorry, and all messages from this one forward should be fine (I hope!) -Ral315

Thank You

Thanks for the congrats. I'm doing pretty well, life's kinda insane with senior year coming to an end and track is starting up and work, but life is pretty good. Hope all is well with you. --Will Mak 050389 23:52, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Yep, a lot of people think I am (I have kind of a "small frame" body), but I guess it will come in handy when I'm old... --Will Mak 050389 23:58, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

The Novels WikiProject Newsletter: Issue XII - May 2007

The Novels WikiProject Newsletter
Issue XII - May 2007

Project news

The peer review department of the Novels WikiProject is running well after the start in February, having 2 new articles under review: So You Want to Be a Wizard and To Kill a Mockingbird.
Our article count has leapt again rising to over 11500. Do get stuck in and assist in improving this rising tide of narrative prose related material. A statistical count of articles can be found here.
We have a new project page for Article Style Guidelines which has had a few editors work on it. Currently based on our existing article template it needs some extra eyes to hone any rough edges.

(n.b. also see debates below!)

Also to accommodate this page the main navigation template has been slightly reorganised.

Member news

The project has currently 229 members, 12 joined & 0 leavers since the last newsletter at the start of April 2007

Other news

The Brothers Karamazov has been nominated for a featured article review.
Uncle Tom's Cabin and Original Stories from Real Life were nominated for Featured Article.

Auto list news

Our Auto Generated lists appear to have lost the editor who created and supported them. If any other editors have the ability and are willing to have a stab at producing replacement updates, please let us know.

Current debates

Of crucial importance to our progress and the way we edit is a debate on the Main Article Template which is strongly recommended for every editor who can, getting involved with. We have worked with the existing template for well over a year now and this debate proposes making radical changes.

(n.b. also see the "Article Style Guidelines" mentioned in "Project News" above)

On the project's general discussion page there is a thread on sourcing novel articles.

Aaron Shust album

I noticed after uploading that the album was uploaded with the wrong name. There is no way to rename an image. I don't see the big deal about the image being named incorrectly, but I won't object if you want to upload the image with the correct name. Let me know if you decide to upload it again, and I will have the old image speedy deleted as uploader. Cheers! Royalbroil 04:06, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

You have to be the only contributor for the article or image to speedy delete it. The code that you type in is {{db-author}} , including the "}}" and "{{" characters. See WP:SPEEDY for an explanation of speedy delete, including how to mark the garbage articles and images that vandals start for speedy deletion. Cheers! Royalbroil 21:20, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
