[edit] Me

I am a student librarian and enjoy writing, reading and reseaching, or helping patrons' with their research, so I hope to expand Wikipedia's collection. I study physical science, pedagogy, Deutsch and mathematics at Appalachian State University. My homepage is hosted by the university, and I livejournal at http://vap0rtranz.livejournal.com; rather than just an EMO diary, I do occasionally post substantial essays.

[edit] My Motto

I aspire to write articles that establish Wikipedia as a valuable general reference and special reference material. With this motto in mind, and recalling the advice of my childhood reference -- the World Book Encyclopedia, I aspire to write articles that: have a 1. broad scope, be 2. current, 3. authoritative, 4. impartial, and 5. revised. (World Book, vol. 22:33)

Hi! Just wanted to welcome you to WikiProject Computer science. Please stop by the project talk page to see what the other project participants are discussing right now. --Allan McInnes (talk) 05:17, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Allan! Justin

[edit] Welcome to Wikiproject on SCOTUS cases

I have been behind in welcoming new participants, but I just wanted to say welcome to the WikiProject on U.S. Supreme Court Cases.--Kchase02 T 18:27, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Kchase! Quite an obtuse acronym you have there: "SCOTUS" Justin

Indeed. The other one is USSC, but neither is in wide usage.--Kchase02 T 21:30, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] JW and Franz

Hi Justin :) my pleasure to meet you. Sorry if I stepped on your toes, and thanks for inviting me to this discussion.

Essentially, my changes were a question of style. I tried to correct what I felt was inferior wording, add details that were relevant and/or would help the reader understand, and also adhere to the WP guidelines for this project. The points you brought up, as I understand them, are:

(1) Use of JW words such as "publisher", "pioneer", "branch overseer", etc. Why not include a phrase such as "known by the Witnesses as a "pioneer" or some such phrase, just for clarity's sake. I don't feel that including the unfamiliar JW term in a sentence which uses a well-known term is sufficient to inform the reader that the JW term is synonymic to the well-known term; it is not "defining" the term. Your method is similar to some of the proverbs; not all people understand that one half of the sentence illuminates, or helps to explain, the other half. I know I didn't, until I got much older; however, students (and I suspect that many of them will be coming here to WP) are not very old. If you feel that "religion" is more appropriate than "religious group", it is not an issue for me; it was a matter of style to me. "Organization" is not specific to Jehovah's Witnesses, despite the fact that its use is common within the JW community; the term relates to any and all organized groups, and the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society is included in that category.

(2) Reference to Knorr as the final word on submitted articles. I am probably in error there. I've read both of Franz's books, and many sections of them twice or three times. But I haven't read any parts of them in the last year, and so I edited that sentence from what I thought I knew, from memory. It was most likely Karl Adams responsibility. But I know that some of the writing department's work went to Knorr, because on one occasion he brought it to Fred Franz and asked, 'What do we do now?' (I think that was related to the restructuring of the organization in 1976). I meant to bring the books home from my place of employment today, but forgot. I'll check them again tomorrow.

My pleasure to work with you :), and I'll get back to you. Yours in the spirit of Wikipedia. --RogerK 03:36, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Franz's footnote on page 187 of "In Search of Christian Freedom" states, "...there were three persons whose signatures were required on all material for publication: those of Nathan Knorr, Fred Franz, and Karl Adams." Whether Knorr or F. Franz actually read all of the material before giving their approval is questionable. Franz makes it apparent in "Crisis of Conscience" that Adams had his subordinates submit their work to him 'for editing and approval' (pages 24 and 25), and that Adams sometimes brought their work to the attention of Knorr (pages 26 and 27). So it seems that Adams authority to approve content was limited, and that Knorr expected to be informed in instances where those limitations were reached.

It seems that we are left with a cloudy situation, my friend :). Express it in any manner you like.

I just checked the article and found that some semi-reverts have been made since last night, ostensibly in the pursuit of a finer article. I am all in favor of that, and yet so many errors have been introduced by these changes that I tend to think that there is an ego problem involved. I don't want to waste my time arguing with editors who introduce errors and do not check their work simply because they want it done their way. For instance, Ray Franz does not have to be addressed as "Raymond Franz" throughout the article. The article is titled "Raymond Franz". We all know it is about Raymond Franz. The only time it is necessary to make a distinction between the two Franzs is when Fred Franz is being spoken about; then it is appropriate to write HIS full name in the article. This is rather rudimentary, yet some editor insists on doing it 'his way'.

I don't have a lot of time to spend on Wikipedia. I don't want to waste it in endless discussions about why such-and-such an edit is right or wrong. I'd prefer to work with editors who are more knowledgeable, such as yourself, and devote what time I have to quality edits. In the spirit of Wikipedia :). --RogerK 01:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Translation Requests

Hi, it is not advisable to place the link for that purpose, for such invalid links will confuse readers. Instead, I suggest you post a request here. --BorgQueen 10:18, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Ah. MmmK. That protocol needs to be added to a Wiki guide :) And thanks for the link (although I will probably translate it myself ;) Justin 10:25, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hi!

Hi Vaportranz!

I've just added my name to the list at the Buddhism Portal. I'd like to get involved, creating, editing, whatever needs doing!

[edit] Wikiproject North Carolina

In an effort to expand this project, I've requested a bot tag most of the articles under the Category:North Carolina. If you could, please look over this list User:Betacommand/North Carolina and remove any that should not get tagged with the Wikiproject North Carolina Template. Thanks Morphh 01:20, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Total re-write of the main Physics page is in progess

You might like to join us at Physics/wip where a total re-write of the main Physics page is in progess. At present we're discussing the lead paragraphs for the new version, and how Physics should be defined. I've posted here because you are on the Physics Project participant list. --MichaelMaggs 08:04, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] LGBT WikiProject Newsletter

The LGBT studies WikiProject Newsletter! Issue I - December 4, 2006

Project News This is the first newsletter of the LGBT studies Wikiproject! Come and discuss your thoughts on it at the Wikiproject talk page. An LGBT Barnstar has been created for editors who have contributed significantly to LGBT-related articles. The LGBT Portal has been revamped and tidied. It's various sections could do with updating on a weekly basis. Please pitch in if you have the time. The main page of the Wikiproject has also undergone a bit of a rewrite. Your participation is welcome. James Robert Baker became the first known LGBT biography to become a Featured Article on November 22. It was written and nominated by Jeffpw. Well done Jeff! A discussion has been started on the WikiProject talk page about how to get the WikiProject going. Your thoughts would be welcome. Finally, five new users have joined the Wikiproject: Jeffpw, Ikasawak, Dev920, AliceJMarkham, and WereWolf. Please make them feel welcome!

To stop receiving this newsletter, or to receive it in a different format, please drop me a line. If you have any news or any announcements to be broadcast, do let Dev920 know.

[edit] LGBT WikiProject Newsletter

The LGBT studies WikiProject Newsletter! Issue II - January 1, 2007

Happy New Year to all our members! Project News Several new templates have been created: {{Bi}} and {{Transgender}} by Dev920 and AliceJMarkham respectively. SatyrTN also created a {{LGBT Welcome}} template to welcome new members. Thanks to them all. The LGBT Portal's various sections could do with updating on a weekly basis. Please pitch in if you can. Latter Days became a Featured Article on December 31. It was written and nominated by Dev920. Congratulations Dev! A new assessment system has been implemented - we have tagged and assessed over 1100 articles so far! Please tag any LGBT related articles you come across by adding {{LGBTProject | class=}} to the talkpage. Please see the Assessment Department for how to assess an article according to the grading system. A fledgling monthly LGBT Collaboration has been started, with Homosexuality as the December article and Gay stereotyping as our January article. Please contribute to this if you can, even if it's just correcting typos. A Translation department has been set up, to translate LGBT articles from foreign language Wikipedias that may have more information than our equivalent article. Please add your name if you are fluent in any language other than English. We have a brand new unique Project! Jumpaclass is a new semi-competition to improve our lower quality articles - see the subpage for more information. Please sign up and get it going! Finally, our membership numbers have exploded! 21 new users have joined the Wikiproject: AdelaMae, WJBscribe, Trodaikid1983, Jtowns, Agne27, Boyau, NickGorton, Dialecticas, DaliJim, Tonei, Cabbers, silent, Textorus, GLGerman, Haiduc, Hornandsoccer, Bopopop, NinaOdell, Badbilltucker, DanB DanD, and Tiger Marc.

The LGBT studies WikiProject Newsletter! Issue III - February 1, 2007

Announcement: If someone requests help or feedback on an article, please try your hardest to help them out if you are able. Thank you. Project News The LGBT Portal has once again been revamped and a work rota started. Efforts towards Featured Portal status are slowly coming together. The assessment system has been a great success, we have tagged over 4000 articles! Please tag any LGBT related articles you come across by adding {{LGBTProject | class=}} to the talkpage. Please see the Assessment Department for how to assess an article according to the grading system. The Translation department has changed its focus, to LGBT articles about non-English topics and people on which there may be more information on the relevant foreign Wikipedia. Please add your name if you are fluent in any language other than English. Jumpaclass is picking up slowly, with nine people having entered. With over 2000 stubs we need to improve our article quality. Please sign up and get it going! Challenge another user to see how far you can jump a stub! There is an ongoing discussion about the current LGBT categorisation system here, here, and a little bit here. A special page has now been set up here to deal with this. A Watchlist has been set up to monitor controversial and/or highly vandalised articles. It can also be used for article disputes, just add a note explaining the nature of the dispute. With the influx of so many active members, there is now enough support for a LGBT studies peer review, which may be found here. It's in the beta phase at the moment, so bear with us if we make any mistakes. Feel free to peer review any articles you have been working on. It was agreed this month to start reducing the uses of the Notice board, as many members felt that it was not effective. An open tasks template has been created, bringing together important announcements, FAC/FARs, Peer reviews, XfDs, the COTM, and requested articles. You may desire to watchlist it. A Deletion sorting subpage is also now working to bring together XfDs - this should be bot-driven, but we have not currently tagged enough articles to make this fully automated, so please update the list with any LGBT-related XfDs you come across. Article news Two articles were recently shepherded through the Featured Article process by two of our members - Same-sex marriage in Spain and The Well of Loneliness. Congratulations go to (respectively) Raystorm and Celithemis! Member News We more than doubled our membership this month! 53 new users have joined the Wikiproject: Aleta, Koweja, Profriend, Andrewn, Carolynparrishfan, Cpnlsn88, Brian1979, Tullerk, Garydw, Ganymead, Celithemis, Burnley, Lquilter, Parammon, Forsakendaemon, Allyn, bcatt, Dfeuer, Raystorm, Fabienne1, Esprix, Antanta, Janusvulcan, Elizabeth Lund, Ashleyvh, E.

The LGBT studies WikiProject Newsletter! Issue IV - March 1, 2007 Monthly Challenge: Find 5 editors to LGBT articles and invite them to the project! Check out our recruitment tips if you need them. Good luck! Project News With such rapid development of the project, it was decided that a Coordinator was needed to ensure all the fiddly maintenence was kept up. Elections were held and Dev920 (talk · contribs) has been elected Coordinator for the next three months. She said "I am honoured and proud to be at the helm of such a fantastic WikiProject and look forward to our future". Congratulations Dev! The assessment system continues to be a great success, we have tagged over 5200 articles! Please tag any LGBT related articles you come across by adding {{LGBTProject | class=}} to the talkpage.

The winner at the end of the year gets to pick the January collaboration, so sign up and get going! Or challenge another user to see how far you can jump a stub! A new Community department has been set up to foster community amongst our members. It mostly acts as other WikiProjects' Outreach department, but also has a Quilt to which every member is entitled to add a square containing anything of their choice. The peer review is not getting much custom - please notice you can cross-list other peer reviews from different projects that also fall within our scope. Many people still seem to be unaware that the Deletion sorting subpage exists for XfDs to be listed: please use and watch that page instead of issuing "alerts" for ordinary AfDs on the project talkpage. WP:FILM has a current drive to give every film article an infobox. WP:LGBT successfully gave all 105 LGBT infoboxless films infoboxes, so a big thank you to everyone who participated. A new template, LGBT-footer, has been created for articles which are becoming to cluttered with infoboxes. Thanks to WJBscribe and SatyrTN for creating it. A very basic resources page has been started. Please add to it as you come across useful sites. A promotional poster for the project has been created: http://wplgbt.tripod.com/Wikipedianeedsyou.doc (you have to directly cut and paste the url, or it won't let you download it). Please distribute anywhere and everywhere you desire, such as gay libraries, cybercafes, community centres and so on. Also, please let Dev920 know where you have put it up, so she can keep track of our coverage. An LGBT Publications Taskforce has been proposed. Please sign up here if you are interested in being involved. An LGBT WikiProject has been set up on the Spanish Wikipedia! Set up by Raystorm, it has already gained six members and is developing an assessment system. If you speak any Spanish, please consider going up and lending a hand if you can! Article News An LGBT article, Homosexual readings of Jesus and John, made it onto the main page as a DYK this month. Congratulations to Haiduc, who wrote the article. Another article, Same-sex marriage in Italy, also made it onto the main page as a DYK this month. Congratulations to Raystorm, who wrote the article. And another article, George Cecil Ives, made it to the front page DYKs this month. Congratulations to Zefrog, who wrote the article.

Issue V - April 3, 2007 Monthly Challenge: Article News Three articles were promoted to Featured Article status this month: Homer's Phobia (2007-03-26), Trembling Before G-d (2007-03-15) and Andrew Van De Kamp (2007-03-30). Congratulations to Gran2 and Dev920 (twice!) respectively for all their hard work!

DavidShankBone deserves kudos for his current drive to provide quality LGBT photos from the NYC area. One of the more recent photos is posted on Michael Musto, and you can check out the gallery on David's user page. Project News There is now the beginning of a list of core topics to possibly be included in the Wikipedia 1.0 release. Your suggestions are welcome; there may be many core LGBT topics still missing. We have a list of people categorized as LGBT whose articles need to be checked for reliable sourcing. This effort is necessary and urgent, to comply with Wikipedia's policy on living persons. Please take a few moments to source one article; if you've got time, do another. SatyrTN identified all the articles that were in subcategories of Category:LGBT but not yet tagged with the project's banner, about 1,400 articles. These have been completed, though SatyrBot will make periodic runs through the cats to find any new entries. Thanks Satyr! The number of articles within our project's spectrum (6,667 currently) should now be relatively stable and only grow with article creation. However, if you find a category that should be included, please let SatyrTN know so it can be included in the bots runs. Work is underway to improve the LGBT Portal. Please add any good quality (free) photos you come across on LGBT articles to the gallery here. Also if anyone would like to volunteer to help in maintaining the portal, please make yourselves known on the Portal's talkpage. If you see any articles for deletion or any other deletion discussions related to LGBT topics, please remember to add them to the deletion sorting board. Thanks!

[edit] WikiProject North Carolina May 2008 Newsletter

NEWSLETTER
Issue One • May 2008 • About the Newsletter
News Cape Lookout Lighthouse Hello WikiProject North Carolina members! A few of us at the The Newsroom Team decided to get together and re-energize the project, through these newsletters. This newsletter is hopefully the first of many to come. We want this project to be active in creating and expanding articles related to our state. If you're a current or former resident of the state, we hope that you will help spread the knowledge of how much there is to learn about North Carolina. A great way to expand new articles is by keeping track of the new articles list. Please add any new NC-related articles or older ones you come across that have not been tagged with the project banner. When you notice an article has been added to the list, read over it and check for citations, grammatical errors, and spelling. If you've written a NC-related article in the past 5 days, read the requirements for Did you know... and add your article to the DYK nomination list. It might be chosen for the Main Page! If you see a new member added to the project list, a great idea would be to leave them a welcome message on their talk page. Show them we notice new members and that we want them to become active participants. Congratulations to the editors who helped promote List of tallest buildings in Charlotte, List of North Carolina hurricanes (1900–1949), List of North Carolina hurricanes (1950–1979), and List of North Carolina birds to featured lists. Let's try to get a few more articles to featured status. North Carolina would be a great (and obvious) choice. Congratulations to the editors of Climate of North Carolina as well. This article was recently promoted to Good article status. A few suggestions for articles we can work on for GA are Raleigh, North Carolina, Charlotte, North Carolina, Greensboro, North Carolina, Geography of North Carolina, and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. If you're a history buff, check out List of Registered Historic Places in North Carolina. There are many articles to be written and your help would be greatly appreciated. If you have any questions in regards to the project, feel free to contact someone from The Newsroom Team. Thanks for all of your hard work and happy editing!
