[edit] Wikiproject Podcasting

I've noticed that you are a podcaster. Well, recently I've proposed a Wikiproject for podcasting. If you're interested go to the proposal page and list yourself under 'Interested Users'. Thanks, and hope to talk with you again soon. Ganfon 19:55, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Podcasting Started

The project is now under way. If you'd like to join, feel free to add your name to the members list on the project page. Thanks, and I hope that you'll be joing us soon. Ganfon 21:49, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome!

Welcome to the Podcasting WikiProject! I'm glad to see you've joined and are willing to help with the current open tasks. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, or post them on the talk page. Also, feel free to give yourself the userbox provided on the project page. As you can see, the project was literally just started, so everything is still a little crazy, but I'm sure you'll help us sort everything out. Thanks, Ganfon 22:41, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ENFPs!!! WOO!! :P

Heyra, thanks for the comment, I haven't been on wiki for awhile but seeing a message here really made my day. Unfortunately, you left no signature and you caused my brain to go on a short overdrive* (I remembered how to find what user left text via history shortly - thus my overdrive lasted only so long.) What's more, *Final Fantasy interests? Loves Family Guy? Maintains a LiveJournal _and_ is gay? Hrmp, if only you lived in New York. *Ponders* Anywhrew, you most likely know who this is but if not, I'll leave it up to you to find me :D ~tata —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mrtrblmkr1 (talkcontribs) 09:34, 18 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Notice to WikiProject Podcasting Members

Hey there all, I've noticed that action on the podcasting project has slowed down. I'd just like to take this time to promote more action from all of you on the project. there are still open tasks to be worked on, and if anyone has anything else to contribute feel free to add a task to the list. Also, I've put the members names into a box, and would like to invite you all to add your favorite podcast to the column. Hope to work with you all soon, Ganfon 20:21, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Antiochian?

You're not another Antiochian, are you? Or former Yellow Springs-ian? There are so few of us here of Wikipedia. Natalie 01:38, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Let's Get Rolling

The Podcasting wikiproject had a brief initial surge, but has since died away. I admit my part in this, I've been very busy as of late and have had little time to do any sort of editing. However the project has had almost no progress over the last few months. Our first task is to outline notability requirements. I have placed what was 'discussed' on the talk page on the main page, but there is certainly room for more input. Once the requirements are outlined we will need to start removing non-notable podcasts from Wikipedia. You all joined this project for a reason, now let's get the ball rolling.Ganfon 15:35, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] League of Copyeditors roll call

Greetings from the League of Copyeditors. Your name is listed on our members page, but we are unsure how many of the people listed there are still active contributors to the League's activities. If you are still interested in participating in the work of the League, please follow the instructions at the members page to add your name to the active members list. Once you have done that, you might want to familiarise yourself with the new requests system, which has replaced the old /proofreading subpage. As the old system is now deprecated, the main efforts of the League should be to clear the substantial backlog which still exists there.
The League's services are in as high demand as ever, as evinced by the increasing backlog on our requests pages, both old and new. While FA and GA reviewers regularly praise the League's contributions to reviewed articles, we remain perennially understaffed. Fulfilling requests to polish the prose of Wikipedia's highest-profile articles is a way that editors can make a very noticeable difference to the appearance of the encyclopedia. On behalf of the League, if you do consider yourself to have left, I hope you will consider rejoining; if you consider yourself inactive, I hope you will consider returning to respond to just one request per week, or as many as you can manage. Merry Christmas and happy editing, The League of Copyeditors.

[edit] WikiProject Podcasting

Hi Ventric, I noticed you were on the list as a member of WikiProject Podcasting! 2008 brings new updates to the project, such as Wikipedia 1.0 article assessment ratings, and new podcast infoboxes editors are working on.

In order to help us know who is working on writing, sourcing, rating articles, and in general helping out the project, I encourage you to check out the WP:PODCAST main page and move your name into the 2008 members list. If you'd like to still be part, but have a more indirect involvement on the project, feel free to leave your name on the former members list. Of course, if you're too busy with other commitments and wish to leave the project, simply remove your name. We'll sure miss you though! :)

The year ahead we would like to focus our energy on not only improving articles, but also provide WP:RS reliable sources to ensure each article meets WP:V verifiability.

All the best and happy podcasting. --Breno talk 10:06, 13 January 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Article from German Wikipedia

I note from your user boxes that you translate from the German to English Wikipedia. Have you looked at the Marxian economics article in German? It is probably too much to hope for that you have actually translated the article, but perhaps you could comment on the ME talk page as to whether there anything that we might benefit from including in the English article? Sunray 16:58, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

I have replied on user:sunray's talk page Alan XAX Freeman 08:23, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

In turn, I've responded on my talk page. I think your ideas have merit and would suggest that we introduce them on the ME talk page. Toward that end, I will respond to Ryan's general observations about the organization of the ME article. Sunray 07:09, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Your further thoughts on this subject seem apt. I would make sense to me to introduce the subject on the ME page. BTW I greatly appreciated the information you provided about what seems to be some sort of ethnographic link between those two musical cultures. This seems to me to be a discovery of the order of that of the Bering land bridge. Sunray 22:20, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Translation

- Hi, I could use some help translating this piece in order to gain useful information for an article about a German mountaineer (Ludwig Vörg). I understand it to mean that they could not move the body from where it fell/temporary grave. Is this true? The text is below.

"Ludwig Vörg konnte im Rahmen unserer Umbettungsarbeiten nicht geborgen werden.

Die vorgesehene Überführung zum Sammelfriedhof in Przemysl - Sammelfriedhof (Polen) war somit leider nicht möglich. Sein Name wird im Gedenkbuch des Friedhofes verzeichnet.
