Wikify
Just so you know, the Template:Wikify has now been deprecated, and more specific tags should now be used, e.g. Template:Dead end, Template:Underlinked, Template:External links, Template:Lead missing etc. Thanks! Del♉sion23 (talk) 18:17, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
- Ah ok I had forgotten about that thanks.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 18:33, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
Orphan tagging with AWB
Please note that the definition of an Orphaned article has been changed to one with no incoming links from articles. When using AWB it is strongly recommended to use the "Restrict orphan tag addition to linkless pages" option. If you feel an article needs more incoming links you can use the few parameter in the Orphan template.--Traveler100 (talk) 06:39, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
- Ok I've changed it.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 16:18, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
- thanks. Do you know if there is a way to get AWB to work in the other direct. Check for links and remove the orphan tag if there are some? --Traveler100 (talk) 18:43, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
- I don't think so but I seem to recall there is a bot that does that?--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 21:48, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

DYK for Tinner's Arms
On 9 November 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Tinner's Arms, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the name of the Tinner's Arms pub in Zennor, Cornwall, is derived from the tinners (tin miners) who were "important for the viability of the village" in medieval times? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Tinner's Arms. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Ramped Cargo Lighter image
Dear Gilderien, I have added a photo of the RCL to the wikipage. Unfortunately it isn't the greatest, and I'm still waiting to see whether it passes wikimuster as far as copyright is concerned. Can you improve the quality, please? Do you know someone who can? Best regards, AmesJussellR (talk) 21:03, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
- Well, it is not eligible for Wikimedia Commons, where you uploaded. Are there any real RCLs still around? If not I'll re-upload it on here as a fair-use, which is allowed.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 22:18, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
Dear Gilderien, I would be stunned if there were any RCLs left. Thanks for putting the image in it's place. Regards, AmesJussellR (talk) 00:36, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
- Okay, I downloaded GIMP and cropped it, but for some reason the fair-use uploader isn't working. I'll try again later.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 16:06, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
Dear Gilderien, Thanks for improving the RCL image. The article looks pretty good now. Regards, AmesJussellR (talk) 02:36, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Christian art
Spotlight
The core topics work group is the group whose specific purpose is to help identify and develop those articles which are of greatest importance to an overall understanding of the broad subject of Christianity, based on what is included in the core topics list. These articles include some of specific churches and individuals, history, philosophical and theological matters, and more. We have had some recent discussion regarding which articles should be included in this list, and it probably makes sense to revisit the selections, and try to figure out how best to work to make them high quality articles. Discussion is beginning at WT:X regarding these matters, and all input is welcome.
Help requests
Please let us know if there are any particular areas, either individual articles or topics, which you believe would benefit from outside help from a variety of other editors. We will try to include such requests in future issues.
