Hi, sorry to take so long to reply to your message. It's convention at Wikipedia to leave new messages at the bottom of the page, and as I was moving country at the start of September, I didn't see your message until now!

Have you tried the updated URL, http://toolserver.org/~verisimilus/Scholar ? Let me know if you continue to encounter problems.

Glad you find the tool useful! Best wishes,

Researcher

Hey Phauly,

Yea, and I realized that what the researcher has is not what I would like to have. I want to see the deleted content to possibly rebuild it, they can just see the history of deletion. Unfortunately, WP does not offer this right alone. Thank you for answering... although I'm curious, where did you see that? - Theornamentalist (talk) 11:58, 25 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Information about admins

edit

Yes, just say you're doing a survey! I'm sure the majority of people won't mind. We all fill out gender/race surveys all the time, at least in the U.S. Some people won't respond, but that's to be expected. And good luck! I'll be very curious to see the results of you research. (Oh, and add country of origin if you don't know already. I'd be curious to see the array of who's from where.) jengod (talk) 16:27, 26 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thanks Jengod! I'll let you know the results as soon as I get something! About country, I agree this is an interesting bit of info but we don't want to put too much into the survey for now. Thanks again! --phauly (talk) 07:53, 30 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

/* Survey on gender */

edit

Hi! I'm Liria Veronesi (User:Akoha77) and, together with Paolo Massa (User:Phauly), I'm starting an empirical research on "Gender and votes in requests for adminship". For this reason, we need to know the gender of Wikipedians who were candidated to become admins.

We tried looking for the templates User:UBX/male and User:UBX/female but only 4 admins use it. We also used the API for getting the gender field in the profile but, out of 1744 admins, only around 400 have filled this field. But we would benefit from a larger coverage, i.e. possibly knowing the gender of 100% of candidates.

So, after asking for advise to 3 admins and receiving 2 positive replies (1 and 2), we decided to try to ask directly to Wikipedians.

Thus, would you be so kind to write your gender [Male / Female / Other], together with a text comment if you want, on my talk page at User_talk:Akoha77? If you prefer to send me this information privately, you can send me an email, the information will be kept confidential and never shared.

Thanks! Akoha77 (talk) 12:34, 31 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject Sociology Newsletter: III (December 2010)

edit
Sociology ProjectNews • December 2010
Spreading the meme since August 2006

The Sociology WikiProject third newsletter is out!

According to our April mini-census, we have 15 active members, 6 semi-active ones and 45 inactive. Out of those, 4 active, 3 semi-active and 1 inactive members have added themselves to corresponding categories since the mini-census. The next one is planned, roughly, for sometime next year. The membership list has been kept since 2004.

On that note, nobody has ever studied WikiProjects from the sociological perspective... if you are interesting in researching Wikipedia, see Wikipedia:Research and wiki-research-l listerv.

Moving from research to teaching, did you know that many teachers and instructors are teaching classes with Wikipedia? This idea is getting support from the Wikimedia Foundation, and some really useful tools have been created recently. I have experience with that, having taught several undergad classes, so feel free to ask me questions on that!

And as long as I am talking about professional issues, if any of you is going to any sociological conferences, do post that to our project - perhaps other members are going there too?

In other news: the a automated to do listing reported in the April issue went down shortly afterwards, but seems to be on the path to reactivation. We still have an active tag and assess project, and comparing the numbers to the April report, we have identified about 350 more sociology-related articles (from 1,800 to 2,150) and assessed about 100 (from 1,300 to 1,400).

We now have a listing of most popular sociology-related pages. It is updated on the 1st of every month, starting with August, and reports which of our sociology-tagged articles are most frequently read. Of course, GIGO holds true, so after looking at it right now and trying to determine what is our most popular article, my first action was to shake my head and remove Criminal Minds (which, perhaps not too surprisingly, outranks all sociology articles in period tested). Second item I noticed it this month's Industrial Revolution, beating Criminal Minds, that moved from close to 30th position in August/September, to 9th in October and 2nd in November. If you'd like to discuss this or any other trends, please visit WT:SOCIOLOGY!

Finally, with the reactivation of Article Alerts, we are getting our own here. Bookmark that page so you can keep track of sociology related deletion debates, move debates, good and feature article discussions, and more.

Our first task force (Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology/Social movements task force) was created (1 June 2010).

If you have basic or better graphic skills, our projects needs a dedicated barnstar (award) (currently the closest we can get is the Society Barnstar.

As always, I highly recommend watchlisting the Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology page, so you can be aware of the ongoing discussions.

Manypedia research

edit

Thanks for the message. I find cultural/epistemological differences across Wikipedia versions fascinating, so I was excited to stumble upon Manypedia. It's an great tool, and made for a very interesting class activity and subsequent assignment which you saw. Since coming across it I've wanted to make time to explore its seemingly great potential for research (both as a tool and object of study). Needless to say, I'd love to open a dialogue. Were there one or two articles in particular that caused you to see a need for something like Manypedia?

PS: I moved your original message from User_talk:RM395 to User_talk:Rhododendrites (the account I use for editing, research activities...really everything other than the class). --RM395 (talk) 04:48, 7 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

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.
