United Church edit

I have removed this section, I feel it got too personal over too little an issue. Feel free to keep commenting! JoeyETS 21:56, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

My apologies if you thought my comments too personal. They were not at all intended that way. If you consider yourself a monitor as to grammar, however, you might want to consider the issue of the run-on sentence and the comma splice: these seem to be continuing problems in your prose. The issue of the word "trodden" is of course a minor thing. Masalai 14:46, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm well aware of my comma splices. I use them in messages and posts, but never in formal writing. I'm very careful not to use them in articles, but I think they're okay in discussion an talk posts. That's fine about the discussion, I accept your apology and offer one of my own. I probably should have never made the edit, and I said some things I wish I hadn't. I'm glad the little issue has blown over. Thank you again for actually commenting.

Saskatchewan Portal Creation Drive Please comment about the formation of a new concept - a Saskatchewan Portal Take a peek at the Canadian Portal. There are four provinces, BC, ON, PQ, and Nunavut. There are also four Canadian cities with portals of their own as well. Portals are pages intended to serve as "Main Pages" for specific topics or areas. Portals may be associated with one or more WikiProjects; unlike WikiProjects, however, they are meant for both readers and editors of Wikipedia, and should promote content and encourage contribution. A unique concept by Portal India was to add a quiz as well India/Quiz Portals introduce the Wikipedia reader to new developments by the wikiproject showing selected biographies, articles, pictures to feature periodically, and archive the previous suggestions. The portal may list information introducing the portal subject, categories, did you know, to do, other wikiprojects and news features as well. Whereas Wikipedia:WikiProject Saskatchewan is an organization created to promote Saskatchewan usage and participation in Saskatchewan article editing and development. Wiki Meet Up Results Follow Up The Academics and alumni articles have been created to assist the U of S article Category sorting - more to do - ensure all articles are within a category/multiple categories. Photographs on Wiki commons have been resorted into categories and subcategories. Prepare a welcome/invitation template for recruiting potential members Completed the welcome/invitation template Fishhead2100 04:35, 4 August 2007 Create new articles (e.g. Sports in Saskatchewan, Health in Saskatchewan)... Sports in Saskatchewan is a newly created article, and is receiving help from afield to further the sections and edit copy. Associate famous personalities to their home communities (e.g. Lorne Babiuk to Canora, Saskatchewan)... As New articles are created check the wiki link at the bottom of the article title 'What Links Here. Here related articles and biographies are listed which should have reciprocal links or information upon the newly created main article page. Geographical classification of Saskatchewan (consensus needed, e.g according to Weather Canada/Environment Canada) Discussion is invited to help organize the areas of the Saskatchewan Wikiproject. Original Reporter - Victor D PARLE What's New? Northern Saskatchewan Focus' For the northern areas of Saskatchewan these are newly created articles: Ajawaan Lake, Nistowiak Falls. There are major expansions made to Prince Albert National Park, Churchill River. These are primarily natural areas, landforms etc. If others have this interest, there is a lot to do such as obvious entries such as Lac La Ronge (and the provincial Saskatchewan parks ), and some of the famous lakes in the north, some named for explorers and fur traders.

However, many of these roads do not appear on the List of Saskatchewan provincial roads. If you happen to read over any highway articles, and you notice a red link to a road that does not appear on the provincial roads list, please add the road's name to the appropriate section on that list. Eventually, I believe that we will have a list of all known Saskatchewan rural roads. Thank you.

Develop quality articles. Increase the amount of good and Featured articles about Saskatchewan related content. Develop top importance articles about Saskatchewan such as those about crown corporations. the provincial government and its several departments. From the Saskatchewan wiki meeting held back on 23 June 2007 it was discussed to develop an article on Health in Saskatchewan, and to improve to feature status articles: Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Regina. The University of Saskatchewan became a good article to celebrate the 2007 anniversary of campus, and should now have a peer reveiw to continue on to becoming a feature article.

Some of these are listed [[1]] and have been compiled with AWB. Outreach Create a Saskatchewan Roads and Highways outreach template to help new members become informed about the presence of this project online. Highway Picture Template Just as there is only one image needed for upload for Saskatchewan locator maps, and then various towns can be updated upon this image. So, too there should be a highway picture template, so that the various numbered highways 1, 33, 34, 58, 913, 914, etc can all have their own image without needing to create a bizzilion numbered images online. 2004 Election Our 2004 Saskatchewan election has resulted in an amazing number of politician biographies coming online! This was an awesome achievement, and something to be proud of! Spotlight Department Qyd (talk · contribs) and Arctic.gnome (talk · contribs) are editors of a wide variety of Canadian related articles, and of note as of this date is the enormous amount of work they have undertaken to help amalgamate all the various provincial wikiprojects and Canadian sub projects into one umbrella assessment department. This unique assessment department means that Saskatchewan related articles can be assessed for their own provincial merit, and also belong to the Canadian wikiproject as well. It also means that editors from both Canada wikiproject and Saskatchewan wikiproject can unite in their efforts to provide banners and ratings to articles. This will result in a huge improvement in quality on wikipedia, resulting in Saskatchewan's spotlight award for Qyd (talk · contribs).

The Editor's Desk Welcome and Happy New Year!: This would be WikiProject Saskatchewan's eighth full-fledged edition of our Newsletter, and we'd like to start by saying we are very happy to have you among us. Archives: Volume 1, Issue 7, December 2007, Volume 1, Issue 6, November 2007, Volume 1, Issue 5, October 2007, Volume 1, Issue 4, September 2007, Volume 1, Issue 3, August 2007 Volume 1, Issue 2, July 2007Volume 1, Issue 1, June 2007 Add to WikiProject Saskatchewan Newsletter: Volume 2, Issue 2 - February 2008 or WikiProject Saskatchewan Newsletter: Volume 3, Issue 2 - March 2008 Just as panic begins to settle in as to what in the world the next newsletter should mention, new areas of development and growth come about. The coming year of 2008 should provide not only more Saskatchewan articles, but also more articles with higher ratings with the assistance of more editors, and a new assessment department umbrella. The highways and roads project has given a good base for development, and to strengthen the presence and notability of roads and highways and effort is being called upon to help these articles improve, now that they too are under the assessment umbrella. This is your newsletter and we want you to be part of it as well. Provide us with news tips here on the talk page for current issues and/or on the Newsletter tip line for future beginnings of the next newsletter edition - Volume 2, Issue 1, January 2008. If you've just joined, add your name to the Members section of Wikipedia:WikiProject Saskatchewan. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy! Lastly, this is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the Newsletter. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned, or just start editing! News Article Wikipedia talk WP SK : For more new updates of new items happening amongst editors of Wiki Project Saskatchewan stay tuned at: Wikipedia talk WP SK Saskatchewan Roads and Highways Saskatchewan Roads and Highways The WikiProject Canada Roads is undergoing an overhaul. It is aiming to produce some Good articles and Featured articles of highway content pertaining to Canada, and for the Saskatchewan Roads and Highways for Saskatchewan highways. As Saskatchewan is still a work in progress this is a challenging endeavour for as the guidelines are followed as laid out at either Highway wikiproject, they become red link farms because wikilinked articles have not been developed regarding the communities, provincial and regional parks and rural municipalities which the highways meander through. Please keep apprised of the progress, and if any Saskatchewan articles rise above stub we will list it on the main page. There is also discussion started about assessment and navigation boxes on the talk page. Please peek in to add any comments you may have. If you want to add your name as a particpant to the Canada Roads wikiproject [here]. To join the Saskatchewan Roads wikiproject sign on the main here please. Recently articles Saskatchewan Highway 1, 33, 34, 58, 913, 914 have been improved, but they need more help so they can become articles nominated as Good articles. Please help out if you are able, even to create community and rural municipality articles for these Highway articles would be an enormous help. To keep updated on proposals, deletion debates, etc. add {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada Roads/News}} or {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada Roads/News|right}} to your userpage to produce the box of notices in the above right.

Saskatchewan Communities & Neighbourhoods See this page for new areas of discussion: talk page Communities & Neighbourhoods The List of ghost towns in British Columbia has given a base to create a new article named Ghost towns in Saskatchewan. Please help to contribute, as Saskatchewan has about 1/5 the number of towns that it had in its heyday between the boom years of the 1920's and the industrial revolution of the 1940's.

There have been two highway articles up for peer review. Saskatchewan Highway 11, Saskatchewan Highway 58 and Saskatchewan Highway 1 are still at highways peer review. Saskatchewan Highway 913 could go for a good article nomination. Achievement of good article or Feature article status would give direction for the project to follow. Saskatchewan Communities & Neighbourhoods - There goes the neighbourhood! Saskatchewan Communities & Neighbourhoods There has been quite a number of Saskatchewan community articles created as of late. Experienced editors are requested to help improve articles to good article or feature article status.

Template {{Saskatchewan topics}} {{Saskatchewan topics}} template needs new articles such as Tourism in Saskatchewan. The template currently wikilinks to articles, lists and categories. The lists and categories should be replaced with new articles where appropriate. Quality growth. Phase II Saskatchewan is growing in content on Wikipedia The assessment rating of articles shows a great number of articles as stub and start class. An improvement in quality would be the logical next step. There are two Top importance Saskatchewan articles both at B-class:Canadian English and Saskatchewan. Of the 34 high importance articles, only 1 article made it to feature status ( Louis Riel ) and 2 have passed good article criteria. Wish list: Have a larger quantity of Top importance and high importance articles about Saskatchewan. Improve quality of these articles to GA or feature article status!!
