Adoption

Hello! I see your seeking adoption. If your still interested I'd me more then happy to answer your questions and help you out. You can respond back to this by leaving a message here. If you have decided that you no longer wish to be adopted, please remove the adoptee's userbox from your userpage. Thanks, hope to hear from you soon! Matthew Yeager 02:48, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Adoption Program

Hello again and welcome to the adoption program!

Please take some time to think about what you would like out of this program and what you can devote to it. After you have thought about this please message me on my talk page about which areas you would like to focus on. As well, if you are completely new or you are not sure, you can let me know that and I can give you a general overview. You will get as much as you put in with this program. If you would like me to be someone that you can ask questions to every once and a while, then thats who i'll be. Yet, if you wish to be in constant contact with me and have me go over your work with you each day or so, then thats who i will be. This is your choice, just please let me know :P

Also if you could please remove the adoptee userbox from your userpage so that others know you have been adopted. If you like you can replace it with this user box:

The automated message to tell you someone has messaged you is a feature of Wikipedia and happens automatically whenever someone (besides yourself) edits your talk page. if you have any questions feel free to ask! Thank you for your time, Matthew Yeager 19:10, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Just wanted to let you know a brought in an awesome adopter to help you out as well!!! this way you have twice as many people to always help you out. To make it easy for you, only post questions on his talk page and i'll check that. the other adopter is Evilclown93. He will be able to answer most any question, and i'll be here to help look over your edits and review any work you would like us to look at. i figure the more people you have checking your work out the faster you can learn and grow! if you have any questions just let Evilclown93 know and he'll be more then happy to get back to you. Matthew Yeager 20:44, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi! I've been brought in under my own will to learn (which probably is just to get used) to the adoption program. I will basically be your adopter, but I will report in a way (or bug basically) Matthew if I need a gentle nudge with this. Hope to see you soon! 21:02, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

RE:new articles

Yes. You can create a user subpage (which is the best method). Here is what you type in to create a new subpage about Wikipedia, for example:

[[/Wikipedia]]
What it will look like actually: /Wikipedia

What this represents is that you can edit a user subpage located at User talk:Jsarmi/Wikipedia, part of your userspace. You can do this on your talkpage, or better on your userpage, which will link to User:Jsarmi/Wikipedia. I hope I hape helped you and you understand; if you don't understand, drop me a line.

Punctuated equilibrium

I take your point and hope I've addressed your issues: if not, it would make sense to keep the discussion on the article's talk page, to keep other editors aware of the discussion. Thanks, Verisimilus T 17:25, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Not at all! There's not really a "right" or "wrong" place for anything - but it's generally a good idea to keep a record of article-based discussion on the article's page too. It was useful to have a notice on the user page too though, or I may not have noticed the edit! Verisimilus T 18:25, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

P.S. In contradiction to the above point, new comments are usually added to the bottom of the talk page; I've moved your comment on Pun.Eq.. Verisimilus T 18:27, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Group development‎

Great article. Really needs references though. Toddstreat1 20:12, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Done, I think. :-) Jsarmi 15:34, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi, just wanted to say thank you for the great article as well - it has grown since it is a neat overview of the famous models. You just saved me around eights hours of working time. Thank you! 89.0.46.31 (talk) 08:10, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

Wiktionary

You should open a Wiktionary account if you expect to be taken seriously there. It's a tighter group than WP, BTW, with some probably justified concern with low-quality contributions. Things are a little more technical, less documented, and different from WP in unexpected ways, esp. in copyright. Copying the wording of a dictionary entry is strictly a no-no in Wiktionary, whereas it is not necessarily so in WP. Quote attribution practice is apparently not as precise in Wiktionary as in the best-referenced WP articles. DCDuring 15:55, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Good point :-) Thanks! I think my question was seriously presented and seriously taken by a couple of people, despite my lack of an account. For newbies, the need to have two accounts is a bit strange but given your differentiation between WP and Wiktionary, I can see how the two might be perceived by "insiders" as being very different. Allways a pleasure to learn more about all things Wiki. Jsarmi 20:42, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Hello

ay Jsarmi, good to see you around editing! i assume everything is going well for you. actually stopping by because i was just reading Group_development which you wrote \ are writing. let me know if you need any help, might i suggest stopping by WP:MoS to pick up some good tips to wikify your article. Also, i'm glad to see so many references !!!!!! but might i suggest reading about how to format references. the short version is to include your references through out the text.

EXAMPLE:
Chess is played on a square board of eight rows (called ranks and numbered from 1 to 8) and eight columns (called files and labeled from a to h) of squares. The colors of the sixty-four squares alternate and are referred to as light squares and dark squares. The pieces are divided into two matching sets, by convention called White and Black. Each player, referred to by the color of his pieces, begins the game with sixteen pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two bishops, two knights and eight pawns. The chessboard is placed with a light square at each player's right on the nearest rank, and the pieces are set out on the two ranks closest to each player, as shown in the diagram. Each queen stands on a square of its own color.

references

in the above example you can see the little 1's and 2's that refer to the references below. these are created by <ref name=NAMEOFTHESOURCE>www.example.com</ref> this way the reader can see exactly where the information is used. Also if you would like to use the same references multiple times you only have to refer to it by the name you gave it, such as <ref name=NAMEOFTHESOURCE/> to easily keep track of references, instead of listing them at the bottom of your page, you can just use <references/> and wiki will find all your <ref></ref> tags and fill in that section for you. if you have any questions let me know : ) MatthewYeager 12:05, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Request to participate in University of Washington survey on tool to quickly understand Wikipedians’ reputations

Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington. In April, we met with Wikipedians to learn what they would like to know about other editors’ history and activities (within Wikipedia) when interacting with them on talk pages. The goal was to gather feedback to help design a tool that could quickly communicate useful information about other Wikipedians. We have now created a few images that we feel represent some of what our participants thought was important. We would appreciate it if you took a few minutes of your time to complete an online survey that investigates whether or not these images would be useful to you. Your quick contribution would be very valuable to our research group and ultimately to Wikipedia. (When finished, the code for this application will be given over to the Wikipedia community to use and/or adjust as they see fit.)

We are particularly interested in feedback from new editors! We want to make sure this tool meets your needs.

Willing to spend a few minutes taking our survey? Click this link.

Please feel free to share the link with other Wikipedians. The more feedback, the better! The survey is completely anonymous and takes less than 10 minutes to complete. All data is used for university research purposes only.

Thank you for your time! If you have any questions about our research or research group, please visit our user page. Commprac01 (talk) 23:44, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
