Update

Hi. So I have informed two projects and nobody commented. the other project is this one. This could mean that nobody will also comment your draft once it is published. At least if anyone have some comments I can show that we looked for feedback so if something should be fixed, we are in good faith.

I am currently refining the text mostly summarizing some passages, trying to make them sound less "promotional". I will probably cut some of the parts which are sourced with the AMI website.

While I am refining the style, maybe you can put another image closely related to research. Something like a view of a lab or a the view of a conference organized in the center about its core research line. It's not compulsory but it will balance the text, IMHO.--Alexmar983 (talk) 00:19, 17 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

I am very busy with other wiki activities up to Dec, 1st. I will move the article to the main namespace after that date. It's a good sign nobody has left any comments. Maybe I can trim less than I though, we will reduce the text if asked later.--Alexmar983 (talk) 20:07, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

In the meantime you could try to add some of these sources. Use those which are reported on platforms that have a dedicated article here such as Science Daily and Physics World. Don't be too detailed, something like "this group works on X"[LINK]. More bytes for the sources than the added text.--Alexmar983 (talk) 20:14, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

I will look into adding sources although I'd prefer this to be less news-related so that the article is not so quickly outdated. As you suggested, I'm going to add an image showing research activities probably sometime next week.--AntoG_AMI 20:20, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
Look, I share your concern but I told you about notability two months ago so let's put more sources. I showed you those because they are in English, I wanted to use those in German and French from newspapers in addition to that, basically to double-proof how much it's notable but anglophone users not always show knowledge or attention to sources in other languages, at least in my experience.
In the end, I also want to be sure we can source everything without the main website except few details from the organizational chart.
In any case take it easy now. I mean I am from the field and I see it's notable and sources can be always added if necessary, but when the concern are not very specific, you can also put more and maybe define the text and remove them later.--Alexmar983 (talk) 23:06, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
I added more sources here and there in German and French. There are plenty of them, but I don't have time to select them, just five minutes now and then, I will probably add more and more until I find probably what I consider the most definitive one.--Alexmar983 (talk) 00:02, 23 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
I added a few concrete examples under 'Research activities' see latest edit and used English online articles of well-known websites as sources. Is this what you had in mind? --AntoG_AMI 13:03, 23 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
Also added a picture from a conference talk. --AntoG_AMI 13:41, 23 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
Good job. I will also add something but as I told you, we are busy until Dec, 1st. So I will see after that date, but I think the chance to move to ns0 after that are increasing.--Alexmar983 (talk) 00:10, 25 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi. In order to make a productive use of this time spent for last revision, I am creating in User:Alexmar983/sandbox a navigation template for Swiss universities. I will insert there AMI as a red link and insert the navbox in all the other articles. If nobody says anything, that's the final proof the article is fine. Sorry if I take it so slow but just better this way if there is no hurry.--Alexmar983 (talk) 19:37, 4 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

No worries at all. Thanks for your help. Let me know if I can do anything. --AntoG_AMI 23:13, 4 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Hi could you ask for an advice someone in the offices there maybe to Barbara about where to insert AMI in Template:Universities in Switzerland? The navogation template follows the structure of this law and i'd like to know if putting AMI close to UNIFR between round brackets is correct or no.--Alexmar983 (talk) 17:39, 8 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
I'll forward your question but I am pretty sure it doesn't belong in this template at all since it is not a university. The Master's program is taught by and at AMI but the degree is awarded by UNIFR, similar with the professorships as these things can only be done with/via a university which AMI is not. Rather it is a Research institute in Switzerland.--AntoG_AMI 19:00, 8 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Fine, I will create a new navbox in User:Alexmar983/sandbox. In the meatime I told the projectthat the suorces are there and that I will move the page, I use the creation of this is navbox as the very last step to slow down the process just to be sure. A good navbox increases visit to a page up to a 100% in my experience.--Alexmar983 (talk) 20:24, 8 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Getting closer with the navbox, see this discussion. The red link is there and if it is approved I will insert the navbox here and there and than move finally the article in the namespace.--Alexmar983 (talk) 14:20, 14 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

The article is saved in the articles namespace. Now, when you have time this is the copyright violation check. Now, it is not too high but try to change the sentences closer to the ami website. I would suggest to go below 15% confidence in all the lines in the table. Can you write some of these sentences again? Thank you. Merry Christmas!--Alexmar983 (talk) 12:10, 17 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Basically done. The only section remaining above 15% is the paragraph on PlaMatSu which is almost entirely due to names.--AntoG_AMI 13:13, 17 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Good. tweet (I did not know how to find you so I cited "students"). I think we are done. Nobody wants to delete it so far! :D--Alexmar983 (talk) 13:17, 17 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
I'm not on twitter ;) Thanks for all your help. Merry Christmas and happy new year to you too.--AntoG_AMI 13:21, 17 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Thanks to you. I will also post something on facebook but a tweet is already enough, you never know...--Alexmar983 (talk) 13:32, 17 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.
