Guitars

For two Seagull players, we obviously have not spent enough time editing the Godin page (which should be pages). If it wasn't after 10:30 local I'd get started on that, but I figured I'd give you a heads-up since at the moment it lies closer to your area of expertise. 71.52.241.53 03:35, 17 January 2006 (UTC) (Dirty Dan)

Userboxes / ECSU

You obviously didn't have enough. I was just gonna do three, but then they weren't even, so I had to make it a nice round 5. Also, we need to get some ECSU pictures over Thanksgiving. Bring your camera and keep up with the article in progress. Wildyoda 1:57, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

Mike's to-do List

Get the BROs to do something "notable" and write a wiki article about us.

ECSU

Check out what I've started with at Wildyoda's Current Project. Got a bit from the ECSU website, and stole a bit from the current article. Layout is same as I did with UNCG-rewrite by stealing UNC Chapel Hill Layout. Wildyoda 05:40, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

Interwiki

Hi, Since you speak Hebrew I thought you might be able to help me by finding the Hebrew-Wikipedia article correspoding to the article Meir Vilner, which I am working on. I'm sure there must be one.--Carabinieri 12:11, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Ugh, I feel dirty - 5 days that POV vandalism crap sat there on the Jaggi Singh article that I usually watch for such stuff. Thanks for catching it. Sherurcij ^{(talk) (Terrorist Wikiproject)} 20:02, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Untagged image

An image you uploaded, Image:Hujilogo.gif, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 11:36, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Can you help verify translations of articles from Arabic

Hello,

Would you be able to help evaluate the accuracy of translations of Wikipedia articles from Arabic to English Wikipedia?

File:Language icon.svg

This would involve evaluating a translated article on English Wikipedia by comparing it to the original Arabic article, and marking it "Pass" or "Fail" based on whether the translation faithfully represents the original. Here's the reason for this request:

There are a number of articles on English Wikipedia that were created as machine translations from different languages including Arabic , using the Content Translation tool, sometimes by users with no knowledge of the source language. The config problem that allowed this to happen has since been fixed, but this has left us with a backlog of articles whose accuracy of translation is suspect or unknown, including some articles translated from Arabic. In many cases, other editors have come forward later to copyedit and fix any English grammar or style issues, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the translation is accurate, as factual errors from the original translation may remain. To put it another way: Good English is not the same as good translation.

If you can help out, that would be great. Here's a sample of the articles that need checking:

• Bani Mansour
• Ein Al-Hussen
• Al-Rawda, Yemen

All you have to do, is compare the English article to the Arabic article, and mark it "Pass" or "Fail" (templates {{Pass}} and {{Fail}} may be useful). (Naturally, if you feel like fixing an inaccurate translation and then marking it "Pass", that's even better, but it isn't required.)

If you can help, please let me know. Thanks! Mathglot (talk) 09:39, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
