Editing <-- ATTENTION ADMIN. PLEASE READ!

I can't anything except my user talk page. What is up with this? I tried to edit from the IP address, 24.248.250.170, while I was logged in and I still could not edit anything at all. I would like to be able to contribute to wikipedia through this ip address, the ip address for my school. Is there anything that can be done? ----Μ79_Šp€çíá∫횆^{tell me about it} 19:48, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I unblocked your IP and re-blocked with the "anonymous users only" option enabled (log). That should solve your problem. In the future, you might get quicker help using an {{unblock-auto}} template or some such. Cheers, Nihiltres^(t.l) 23:10, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. An article you recently created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new articles, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do and please read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you.Ben W Bell talk 19:38, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Re:Wow

Yeah. I recently sort of ended up in a Wikibreak, I only noticed your message because it popped up on my RSS reader. :) aido2002^talk 02:25, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Heads up!

You should consider adding Twinkle to your monobook, if you havent already as it helps a lot in speedy tagging and warns the user as well, which you dont seem to have been doing. Oh and on another note the "pop-up" thing on your userpage that comes on the bottom left hand side is quite annoying. Phgao 07:16, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

• Add Twinkle to my monobook... What? I do not understand. Please tell me what you mean because I have no idea what either of those things are. --Μ79_Šp€çíá∫횆^{tell me about it} 07:18, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Nah, don't take my gripe that seriously, I just find that bar thing annoying. But you would do well to look here [1]. Oh and feel free to take anything from the page; I didn't create any of it anyway! Phgao 08:21, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Oklahoma Newsletter October 07

Modest boost in assessed articles during September WikiProject Oklahoma's massive list of unassessed articles got smaller over the month of September, as 45 articles were assessed by bots and editors. Assessments made on August 31 bring the total to 62 assessed articles over the 31-day period. On September 15, BetacommandBot assessed 40 articles from no-class to stub and start class. This bot automatically updates the talk pages of articles included in more than one WikiProject if at least one WikiProject has already assessed the material, bringing each interested WikiProject's ratings into compliance with the assessment. No B-class or higher quality assessments were given out over September, and only a small handful of importance assessments were granted. On August 31, one Low, Mid, and High importance rating was given to three separate articles. Leroy McGuirk was given the lone high-importance rating. Oklahoma categories receive help from Texan TexasAndroid, an administrator, assisted WikiProject Oklahoma by categorizing nearly 100 Oklahoma-related pages on September 24. The additions were made mainly to Tulsa-related pages. "I've done the major cities in Texas in the past, and was thinking about what to do next, and decided to stay relatively close to home for now. Thus OK's big cities got done," TexasAndroid wrote on his user page. Meet WikiProject Oklahoma's "sub-project" Taskforce Tulsa, a collaboration of editors operating under WikiProject Oklahoma, has been created to increase the scope of Wikipedia's coverage of Tulsa and its surrounding areas. Taskforce Tulsa is many things, but most importantly, it is a way for editors to have a place to put Tulsa-related requests (pictures, article, expansion, collaboration) for other editors interested in Tulsa. News, guidelines, and category trees related to Tulsa articles can easily be accessed and added through the task force's project page. The taskforce is not its own WikiProject. Instead, it works in conjunction with WikiProject Oklahoma to increase the quality and scope of Tulsa-related material. Because of the increased clutter and unnecessary waste of space that would be created with a new WikiProject, editors have opted for a taskforce, or workgroup project. Rather than having a Wikiproject Oklahoma banner as well as a Wikiproject Tulsa banner on most Tulsa-related pages, editors can simply add the Tulsa Taskforce note onto the existing Wikiproject Oklahoma banner. Cleaner, clearer, and more efficient. In edit mode, such a banner would appear as this: "{{WikiProject Oklahoma|class=FA|importance=Top|tulsa-task-force=yes}}". In other words, simply adding "tulsa-task-force=yes}}" to the existing Wikiproject Oklahoma banner on an article's talk page would include that article into the Tulsa Task Force. According to an explanation on the taskforce's project page, "The Tulsa Task Force is a 'sub-wikiproject' operating 'beneath' Wikiproject Oklahoma, and is designed to assist it by focusing specifically on Tulsa-related material. Editors who are interested in expanding knowledge of Tulsa on Wikipedia may wish to consider themselves part of Taskforce Tulsa as well as Wikiproject Oklahoma." Interested parties can sign up much like a stand-alone WikiProject.
