List of allergies

Hi. I reassessed from stub to list.[1] Also, I think I fixed an error in the article.[2] If that wasn't what you intended, please fix. Thanks. Viriditas (talk) 00:21, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank you. I will check out the fix you made. List of allergies is on my list of stubs to come back and fix up. As you have probably seen from my contribs, I make stuff and then come back way later to add to them. I'm not sure if you agree with that. Please let me know your thoughts. I guess it's the immediatist/eventualist thing. I just figure that most people don't have the wherewithall to make stubs. So, if they google a subject and it's not there, a chance is lost for it to grow. I try to plant the seeds. My next mission is to email schools in the Northwest territories to get photos of the lakes and settlements. A very sneaky way to recruit editors. Get 'em when they're young. Very "wikimissionary". :)
By the way, secure.wikipdedia is blocked for me. Best, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:03, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
I've replaced the links. Please check them again. If you run into this problem in the future, simply replace https and secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en with http and en.wikipedia.org. That's all you need to do to get the link to work. Viriditas (talk) 05:14, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
Good calls on both edits. I'll go over the whole article soon.
Thanks for the 'secure' tip. Best, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 08:48, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

DYK for Faces of Meth

HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 12:05, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Anna, looks like you got somewhere between 14-15k hits. Good job! Viriditas (talk) 02:26, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Fantastic! I'm sorry I was too late in figuring out how to put your name on it. After all, you wrote most of it. And, testament to your good writing, not one tweak from one editor, except for converting a few hyphens. Very nice! Anna Frodesiak (talk) 03:08, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Do you think you will add it to DYKSTATS? BTW, the only reason I got so involved is because you challenged me on the article talk page! You said you didn't think it would be large enough, so I expanded it. :) Viriditas (talk) 08:38, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
You certainly did expand it. I am very pleased, and surprised. I could only find enough to fill a paragraph. I will add it to DYKSTATS, and will add your name too. Best, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 09:11, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Trout Lake, Northwest Territories

Hi. I moved Trout Lake (Northwest Territories) back to Trout Lake, Northwest Territories as it is a community rather than a geographic feature. As per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (geographic names)#Disambiguation, "With the names of cities, towns, villages and other settlements, as well as administrative divisions, the tag is normally preceded by a comma, as in Hel, Poland, and Polk County, Tennessee." and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (Canada-related articles)#Places, "For cities which do not qualify for undisambiguated titles, the correct title format is City, Province/Territory (the "comma convention")." It turns out there are 5 Trout Lakes in the NWT. One is the lake on which the community sits, one is Old Trout Lake and there are two more. The first is easy because it's Trout Lake (Dehcho Region, Northwest Territories) but the other two are both in the same region, North Slave Region. I've asked at Wikipedia talk:Canadian Wikipedians' notice board#Lakes and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Lakes#Disambiguating lakes. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 01:48, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

I'm trying to remember what I was thinking. I might have mistaken it for a lake. Thanks for mopping up my spill.
I'm curious to see what the right procedure turns out to be regarding the Trout Lake super-dab. I'm watching the discussions.
By the way, you mentioned US fed govt public domain sat maps. I was digging around USGS and places, but couldn't find the site. Also, I am guessing I can crop suitable maps, and upload as derivative works. Is that the procedure?
Finally, (and sorry to bug you with this), where on earth is the help page for doing the pushpin map thingy?
(I think I've got it.)
It won't render. I suspect the problem is that the coordinates don't have seconds. Anyway, if you could please advise, or better yet, do Aylmer Lake, and I will follow what you did for all the others, I would be very grateful.
Triple thanks. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 03:06, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
No problem with the Trout Lake, by the way Trout Lake is popular. I think that this might be a starting point for the USGS maps. Also I think that NASA World Wind may be OK for screen shots to use here but I'm not positive. I'll have a look at the lake tomorrow as I'm on the laptop and it's not as easy as the desktop. I know that I've had problems with the pushpin maps as well. Where was the pushpin map thing located? Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 04:26, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the sat map links.
A zillion Trout Lakes. Nice. Couldn't they have named them something a bit more original. Very Canadian. Don't we have 6 football teams, with 2 of them having the exact same name? :)
The map link is here. I am just trying to swipe the format from other articles, but it doesn't seem to render. Let me know if you have any luck. Thanks. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 04:47, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Obsidian Soul seems to have cleverly figured out the map thing. I will try to put it inside the infobox.

This USGS link you gave me has scary lines like: "Buy digital format on media", "Commerical distributors", and "Pricing Information". I found this page yesterday by searching for the string "public domain" on the USGS page: Gallery. It didn't have much. Please let me know if you come up with anything. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 06:50, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

If you copy and past the whole {{Location map}} onto the line "|image_lake =" or "|image_bathymetry =" it will work. However, "[[file: |240px|alt=]]" then appears above the map. The other problem is that it works with {{Location map Canada}}, {{Location map Canada (equirectangular)}} and {{Location map CanadaGeo}} but not with {{Location map Canada Northwest Territories}}. I think that there is missing information at the NWT template. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 15:12, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Thank you. I will wait and see if the NWT template gets fixed. Cheers. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:38, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
There are three of them, NWT, NU and YT that don't work. I left a message at the Wikipedia talk:Canadian Wikipedians' notice board as the pushpin maps have quite a few uses. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 00:58, 5 February 2011 (UTC)

DYK for Pseudobiceros bedfordi

Congratulations to high article view statistics. Would you like to write also about approximately similar hooky theme: parasitic castrator? --Snek01 (talk) 13:33, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
 
Hello, Anna Frodesiak. You have new messages at Sharktopus's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
Hi Anna, it is up to DYK length, see if there's anything you want to add? I have really enjoyed working on this and also started a related article to talk about the strange life-story of Hemioniscus balani. But I'd better sleep before I do much more. Sharktopustalk 04:16, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
Amazing. Sorry I didn't help. After seeing your Hubble piece, I realized that you were best for this article. This one is 100% yours, but I'll still help if you want.
There is a table in one of those sources that shows castrator, host, results (I think), and some other data. Do you want me to add that? The article might need more actual species and the mechanics, i.e. elastration, tiny scissors. They might also want to know the results of castration, i.e. gigantism, or watching a lot more TV, or the sudden desire to buy hush puppies. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 06:38, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
I love the idea of the tiny scissors, er, the table, if you have time! Making tables in Wikipedia is one of the things I have not yet succeeded in doing. Hope to be able to work more on Hemioniscus today. Sharktopustalk 12:25, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Mentor Request

Hello:

I am willing to get more involved in Wikipedia edition, for we have some projects for Wikipedia in Indiana University. I notice that you are currently in Guangzhou city, where I am come from, and now I am studying in the US. So could you please be my mentor? For our project, please leave some message to my talk page.

Thanks very much — Preceding unsigned comment added by TiMkOk (talkcontribs) 23:29, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Greetings. I see that you asked both PrincessofLlyr and me around the same time, and she agreed first. I think a good idea is that she be your mentor, but if you need help and she is not online, you can ask me. Is that okay? By the way, I am in Haikou, not Guangzhou. Best, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:55, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks so much~ I asked for a mentor some days before, but I haven't received any reply. As the project approaching, I just asked different mentor at the same time. Sorry about that. I am glad to know you can help me when PrincessofLlyr is not available
Hope you have good days in Haikou, and have fun in China. Most importantly, go to Guangzhou sometime --TiMkOk (talk) 03:33, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
You're very welcome. Drop me a line here with questions, or to request IRC chat anytime. I'm often online.
Guangzhou, eh? Hmmmm. I kind of like the relative peace and quiet, and low population density of Haikou. But, I will eventually get there. Happy editing, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 07:04, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
I have a naive question to ask: what IRC chat is? Forgive me~ --TiMkOk (talk) 20:17, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Good question. Please forgive me. I thought you already learned IRC in class.
The long, confusing answer: WP:IRC.
The quick and easy answer: IRC is live chat. How to do it? Easy:
1. Click this: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#wikipedia-en-classroom
2. Enter any nickname you like
3. Click connect
4. At the bottom of the screen, click the bar and type something. A Wikipedian will answer.

Alan B. Slifka

Hi, Anna, I want to request advice about a new bio I created for a philanthropist whose obit is in the NYT today. He sounds like a really good person. The problem is that his last name is "Slifka" and there is a much more common and similarly pronounced last name "Slivka," so a lot of non-obit news stories talk about the "Alan B. Slivka Foundation." I am pretty sure they are about the Alan B. Slifka Foundation but how should I handle this? Sharktopustalk 14:26, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Strange. I get only around 30 google matches for the quoted string: "Alan B. Slivka Foundation" or "Alan B. Slivka". I don't think that's a problem. The Alan B. Slifka Foundation looks to be definitely his foundation. You should mention that in the article. I would make redirects to your article for:

stringbike

Hi, Stringbike is me, thats why i wanted to make the paige in Wikipedia. How can i make my article valuable? Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stringbike (talkcontribs) 14:48, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

If you were talking about Stringdrive, it's already been deleted. It might have made a better article than Stringbike. Both seem to have enough media coverage to be notable. I think the drive could be mentioned in the Stringbike article, or the other way around. Both Stringdrive and Stringbike should not both exist. One should redirect to the other.
Personally, although I started the bike article, I think the important invention is the drive, not the bike. So, I would prefer Stringdrive as the article, with a mention of Stingbike.
Anyway, your username is a conflict of interest, and that interest is clearly to promote your product. Step one would be to get a different username. Step two, if you want, would be to prepare the Stringdrive article, with lots and lots of good, (independent, third-party) references, and create it again. Then, I would be happy to merge the Stringbike article into it.
Finally, don't copy and paste from your site or any other, into Wikipedia. That's not allowed.
If I can help, let me know. Cheers, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:07, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Editing wiki entry

Hi Anna! I'm working on our last assignment: editing a wiki entry. I've been researching improvements and one thing that my article needs in references. How do I do that within the article? Those are the tiny numbers at the end of the sentence, correct? Any help you could give would be great! Thanks! Football1502 (talk) 17:21, 20 February 2011 (UTC) Football1502

Thanks for the tips! I did an edit to my user page to test them out. Is there a way to create a title for the links? I remembered doing this when creating my website in HTML but it doesn't seem to be quite the same. Is this a good idea or no? Also, I attempted to use that tool on that site and not sure it worked properly. It gave me a message that it couldn't find the site? Thanks Anna! Football1502 (talk) 05:09, 21 February 2011 (UTC) Football1502
What you did on your userpage looks good. (Remember to put the reference after the period at the end of the sentence.)
What do you mean by title for the links? I can guess. I will edit your userpage and see if it is what you mean. I just added info after the url, leaving a single space.
If you want a more detailed reference, try this:

<ref>{{Cite web | title = Apple tree fruit | url=http://apples.com/apple-trees.html | accessdate = 20 February 2011 }}</ref>

Insanely detailed references are here. Just glue one of those in between Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page). and stick it at the end of the text you wish to reference.
Any clarification needed, just ask. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 05:36, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
This link for reflinks works fine for me. It should bring you to a page with a blue heading. Just paste in this: Choriaster granulatus into the box that says: Page title or URL. Then click "Run Reflinks". Anna Frodesiak (talk) 05:43, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
Ok great. I understand references for websites now. How do you do books? I did some research using my textbook and would like to use it. Do you know a website that has references for books I can look at? Thanks again! Football1502 (talk) 16:24, 21 February 2011 (UTC) Football1502
Oh! Nevermind I found it on your page you gave me!! Thank you! Football1502 (talk) 16:53, 21 February 2011 (UTC) Football1502

FYI

refTools can be added in My preferences/Gadgets/Editing gadgets simply by clicking the box to the left of it. This will add a cite button to the editing toolbar and allow users to access the citation templates from the edit window. Try it! Add the gadget, then edit a page and click Cite/Templates. A combo box will appear listing the cite web, news, book and journal templates. Viriditas (talk) 09:35, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Nice. I didn't know it existed. I usually dump the lot into an editpad with a blank citation thingy, then drop the bits into it. I guess I a can try it this way. Switching browser tabs back and forth dumping info into the fields seems awkward. Is that how I'm supposed to do it? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 10:33, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
There's no one size fits all or one true way. Whatever works for you, works. I just wanted to tell you about the gadget in case you didn't know. Viriditas (talk) 19:21, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
I love that tool Viriditas is talking about, though I only recently learned to use it. I don't do it by switching tabs though; I open two pages on my browser and go back and forth between them. By the way, I recently got into my first discussion at ANI, with the result that two of my recent edits to Diaspora were reverted less than 5 minutes after I made them. I am re-thinking my desire to be an admin someday. Maybe I will just be a battling jerk instead. Sharktopustalk 19:46, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
Viriditas: Thanks for telling me about it. I will give it a chance and see.
Sharktopus: I've been following your Diaspora thing. That article has been on my watchlist for ages. I was surprised to see you turn up there. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 08:46, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
I was surprised to see me turn up there too. I just happened to walk into an AfD where a very smart well-educated guy was (in my first impression) bullying and taunting some guy below his weight class, though the victim was punching too. So I have been trying to help save a little article about Norwegian emigrants (no, I'm not Norwegian) but I am surprised by how easy it is to say harsh things when one is angry, so that even when I am trying to keep my sharky mouth shut, the heavily-censored-by-me stuff I say still comes out pretty hurtful. I need to swim away from those articles and get back to wrapping my tentacles around my own stuff.

Mentoring students: be sure to check in on them

This message is going out to all of the Online Ambassadors who are, or will be, serving as mentors this term.

Hi there! This is just a friendly reminder to check in on what your mentees are doing. If they've started making edits, take a look and help them out or do some example fixes for them, if they need it. And if they are doing good, let them know it!

If you aren't mentoring anyone yet, it looks like you will be soon; at least one large class is asking us to assign mentors for them, and students in a number of others haven't yet gotten to asking ambassadors to be their mentors, but may soon. --Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 20:05, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Please be careful with the rollback button

Hi there. Please remember that rollback is only for clearly destructive edits and should not be used to revert content-based, good-faith edits such as the revert you performed here. Continually using rollback to revert such edits will lead to the userright being revoked. Regards SoWhy 13:09, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I'm ordinarily very conservative with it. It's just that we've had a string of edits to change the origin to Thailand (by a Thai editor and socks). I was in the middle of something, did a WHOIS that came up Bangkok, and clicked. I actually thought twice, and immediately dropped a note on the talk page asking for discussion before change. No need to revoke rights unless you want. There is nothing continual about such use of the button. This was a one-off, and you can check my contribs to be sure. Thanks for the notification. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 13:24, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

::(talk page stalker) Actually, SoWhy is wrong. That prohibition is actually only for using generic rollback, when no edit summary is provided. Per WP:Rollback, "The above restrictions apply to standard rollback, using the generic edit summary. If a tool or manual method is used to add an appropriate explanatory edit summary (as described in the Additional tools section below), then rollback may be freely used as with any other method of reverting." Anna's revert was identical in every way to if she had gone back in the history to the first page and clicked edit with a summary explaining why she was going so far back. So, Anna, your use of rollback was completely appropriate per both policy and principle. Qwyrxian (talk) 13:31, 27 February 2011 (UTC) -

Actually, I'm the idiot. I only noticed the second rollback Anna did, not the first (to the IP); the first is within the restrictions provided for rollback. Apologies for speaking to quickly. Qwyrxian (talk) 13:33, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Does that mean I still broke Wikilaw? Dang! I was actually exonerated for a full two minutes. Oh well. Thanks for sticking up for me. :)
Anyway, I regretted the click the second I did it. I guess I was swept up in a reflex action when I saw the word Thailand again, and after that editor: 4 blocks and 2 socks, all over trying to add Thailand. I just saw no edit summary, Bangkok IP, right on schedule, single-purpose account, and made the assumption. I'm only human. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 13:49, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Don't worry too much. I fully understand that you are only human, as are we all, so mistakes can happen. As such, I did not mean it as a warning, merely a friendly reminder (hence I did not use the templated warning message). I understand that such edits can be frustrating and that one can be tempted to simply rollback the edit and leave it at that, so I wanted to make sure it was just a mistake. Sorry if it sounded otherwise. Regards SoWhy 14:26, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Thank you. I'm less worried now. And thank you for not using the template. I very much appreciate the note, and I will be more careful with the button. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:34, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Glad to hear. Only when I read your reply I realized that one could interpret it as a warning. If I can be of any assistance in future, please let me know. Happy editing :-) Regards SoWhy 14:57, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
