Welcome, SFGiants/Archive 2, to the Wikipedia Birthday Commitee!!! You have met all of the membership requirements. Any concerns should be directed to Steveo2. (Between June 14 and September 10, 2006, speak to Mr. Turcotte instead.) See the Birthday Committee Project Page to see our userbox, and the Birthday Message Templates. Go to the bulletin board to see any new announcements concerning the committee. Remember, Be Bold!
The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.
Islamic Barnstar Award
Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
Please offer your opinion, vote, or whatever about your choice for the image to be used with the Islamic Barnstar Award at the Barnstar proposals page. Although there is consensus for the concept of an Islamic Barnstar Award, some editors would like to change the image for the award. I was just thinking you should be aware of this discussion because you have contributed to Islamic-related articles, received the Islamic Barnstar Award, or have contributed to the Islam-related Wikiprojects, etc.--JuanMuslim1m16:22, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello. You may or may not remember this, but some time ago you signed up for a Hangman Tournament hosted here on Wikipedia. The next tournament is about to start, and I was just wondering if you were still interested in participating. If you are, please go to the page (linked above) and bold your name in the sign-up list. This will confirm your registration. If you are not interested any more, please feel free to remove your name from the list. If you haven't responded within 7 days, I will assume you are not interested, and remove you from the list.
If you think anyone else may be interested in this tournament, please drop them a note and ask them to sign up. Good luck, and I hope to see you at the tournament! If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian MankaTalk to me!13:40, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
September Esperanza Newsletter
Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors!
What's New?
September elections are upon us! Anyone wishing to be a part of the Advisory Council may list themselves as a candidate from 18 September until 24 September, with the voting taking place from 25 September to 30 September. Those who wish to help with the election staff should also list themselves!
Appreciation Week, a program currently in development, now has its own subpage! Share your good ideas on how to make it awesome there!
The Esperanza front page has been redesigned! Many thanks to all who worked hard on it.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.

Fair use rationale for Image:RA-FitS.jpg
Latest comment: 17 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion
This file may be deleted.
Thanks for uploading Image:RA-FitS.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ResurgamII16:22, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Hello, SFGiants/Archive 2. You may or may not remember signing up for the Wikipedia Hangman Tournament, but the time has finally arrived for you to start your game! You have until 04:50, 22 August 2024 (UTC) to begin your game by typing {{Wikipedia:WikiHangman Tournament/New|~~~~}} on the corresponding round page. You should also visit your match page, as you will be able to see various aspects of your match.
I would also suggest:
Familiarizing yourself with the rules of the tournament. The rules include how to win, how to play, and how to navigate amongst the various pages of the tournament.
Visiting the Tournament 2 page, which has the rules and pairing for the tournament. Use the tournament tree to see tournament updates, as well as
If you have any questions at all regarding the procedures and rules of this tournament, please feel free to contact me at my talk page. Thanks again, and good luck!
In case you are wondering why it took so long to begin this tournament, my computer was not operating correctly, and my Internet usage was limited to public computers. My opportunities to use public computers were limited, so needless to say, I didn't have a lot of time to commit to Wikipedia. So, sorry if this has caused you any inconvience. Good luck! If you have any questions, please contact me at my talk page. Ian Manka02:24, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Hello, SFGiants/Archive 2!
Thank you for joiningWikiProject Middle-earth and contributing to improve Tolkien-related articles. We are glad to have you join in the effort!
Here're some good links and subpages related to our WikiProject.
Happy Birthday, SFGiants. It seems like I've been seeing you a lot lately... I won't worry about it. Happy Birthday!! Steveo212:06, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
I've fixed all your scripts except the welcome script (which I couldn't get to work) for you; as I can't edit other user's monobooks, the fixed version is at User talk:SFGiants/monobook.js; copying it over should work. Let me know if it works for you! --ais523 15:11, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Minor Edit Barnstar
Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach.
Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.
What's New?
The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one!
A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia.
The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested!
In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias.
Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello.

Nikhil Parekh
Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
I have just placed this notice on the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nikhil Parekh page, and am bringing every voter's attention to it as promised.
Comment. Sigh. Despite the inevitable tirade that this will unleash, I am sorry to have to bring new information to the table. I have this morning received an email from Vijaya Ghose, editor of the Limca Book of Records. "Dear Mr (----),
We have enlisted a couple of claims of Nikhil Parekh. Longest Poem is not one of them. He has formidable competition in John Milton's Paradise Lost and our own Mahabharata. However, he has written to many heads of state and has received replies but not from the head of state but the secretary or executive assistant. He is is the first from India to feature on Eppie. We checked with them. Regards Vijaya Ghose. So Parekh, though probably not notable as a poet, is indeed an Indian world record holder. I suspect that this changes the balance on his notability, though the article would still require a great deal of clear-up. I will notify everyone who took part in this vote and ask admins to extend debate a little. Sorry.

The wikEdlogo
Hi, I have seen that you are using the Cacycle editor extension. This program is no longer actively maintained in favor of its much more powerful successor wikEd.
wikEd has all the functionality of the old editor plus:• syntax highlighting • nifty image buttons • morefixing buttons • paste formatted text from Word or web pages• convert the formatted text into wikicode • adjustthe font size • and much, much more.
Switching to wikEd is easy, check the detailed installation description on its project homepage. Usually it is as simple as changing every occurrence of editor.js into wikEd.js on your User:YourUsername/monobook.js page.
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
An image you uploaded, Image:Zehlendorf.png, 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. -- 13:42, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:World map places traveled.svg
Thanks for uploading Image:World map places traveled.svg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 01:12, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello SFGiants, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:Portalimage.gif) was found at the following location: User:SFGiants/The boring part. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits. I ask you to please not readd the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain.

Thank you for your participation in the discussion regarding the use of the names "Bratislava" and "Pressburg" on Talk:Bratislava. I would like also to invite you to a poll that will show us the real support for the two alternatives. I hope the poll will help us reach consensus and close this case so we can move on to other improvements of that (hopefully) future featured article. You can access the poll at Talk:Bratislava#Poll.

Why did you revert my page to show all this when I said I didn't want to see it?
Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, we remind you not to attack other editors, as you did on User:VanTucky. Please comment on the contributions and not the contributors. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. VanTucky04:17, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
With regards to your comments on user:VanTucky: Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. VanTucky04:27, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
VanTucky, you're taking a typically legalistic approach to defending your uncouth and uncivil comments on the "Toupee" discussion page. I have no interest in engaging in discussion with you, and consider you an annoyance. If you attempt to have me banned, be aware that anyone handling your request will see your actions for what they are. In my personal opinion, and I trust I'm allowed to have one on my own User Talk page, you're a self-righteous annoyance.24.15.208.6506:12, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
Further, I've been contributing to Wikipedia longer than you have. I, unlike you, don't feel the need to throw up flags at every instance or criticize the contributions of others by saying they are "pointless and trivial". Say what you wish - that IS arrogant language, with apparently arrogant intent, by an apparently arrogant person.

As stated in the section above, your user talk page is not yours. It belongs to the entire community, which means you cannot do whatever you want to it. I found some of your other comments amusing as well. You say that you have been editing on Wikipedia longer than I have. A quick check of your editcount and my editcount reveals this to be the case by 8 days, but I have been editing on an IP since January 2005. I would also like to point out that I have almost 25 times as many edits as you. I do not find VanTucky's language arrogant; to the contrary, it is standard language and I woulduse the same. Regards, ¿SFGiДnts! ¿Complain!
I amused you? How charming. You're not the only one that logs in from different IP addresses and maintains a login ID. My time on the IP address shown starts from around the time we moved to our present home, and I rarely use it compared to logging in at work during lunch or using my login id. Count up all edits from all locations and IDs, and then compare. I don't make Wikipedia my life either.
Regardless of who has more experience on Wikipedia - I'll grant you that - my comments about Vantucky are with regard to his comments on the "toupee" page, which is an odd topic to get hot and bothered about. If this is standard language -- "Sorry to burst your bubble but Wikipedia isn't a Party" -- then I'm Howard Cosell. In his further replies the snideness fairly dripped from the screen. It doesn't take much typing to be civil, and before HE started polluting the 24.15 talk page, I had never corresponded with another editor except on an Article talk page. After the past several days, I don't plan on talking much ever again. Too many legalists. 24.15.208.65 12:30, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Out of curiosity, did you actually fail Mamilla for one unreferenced statement? Your GA fail assess for that article was all good except for "references" and your narrative at the bottom discussed one statement. Don't you think an "on hold" would have been more appropriate, rather than an outright fail?
I have no connection to the article, but I am watching the page because I have a GA nominee of my own on the page. Horologiumt-c01:12, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for your note. The secret is.. there is no secret! It's really down to dedicating a large portion of my life to getting six featured articles which means that I can spot most flaws in articles at ten paces. Things like WP:MOS failures I find particularly irksome because in most cases they're very straightforward to fix, so much so that rather than fail or hold a GA because of it, I'll fix the issues myself and carry on.

I have removed the part that was "neither referenced nor NPOV". There seems to be no other problem with the article. Can I renominate now? Aditya(talk • contribs)04:11, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
Not just a fellow Bengali, but also, apparently, a fellow admirer of science fiction giants - Wales, Asimov, Heinlein, Clarke, Silverberg, Lem, Strugatsky brothers - oh, the list continues. Well, about Banglapedia - how far is this OR thing is applicable you think, since the subject itself is one of the most authentic sources of information in Bangladesh? Much of the details on the content comes from the book itself, and it has long been established on the WP as a verifiable and authentic source. There's a dilemma involved here, I guess. There's a possible compromise - may be you can provide the second opinion about which parts need citation (just slap on a {{fact}} tag), and I'll try to address the problem. BTW, which part of Bengal are you from? Cheers. Aditya(talk • contribs)04:42, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
