I noticed you were the last to edit this before I expanded it... ;) --candle•wicke 14:13, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
Why yes, of course. :) --candle•wicke 16:40, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the ITN - my fourth today!!! :) Oh, if I keep up this pace (and BorgQueen checks and posts regularly) I think it ought to be possible to keep ITN afloat or at least not to go too stale on updates - although additional comments, supports and opposes are always needed of course. ;) I was very disappointed at your exit; I thought it would have been fun to be competing for ITNs in the same pool if it had happened! ;) But now to give Useight a right old scare by jumping into a one point lead from behind... :) --candle•wicke 01:40, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
ITN for Northern Cyprus parliamentary election, 2009
The Christianity project and its related projects currently have 72 FAs, 6 FLs, and 145 GAs, which includes 4 more FAs. We did however lose one FL and 1 GAs over the past month, but we still gained overall.
The WikiProject Films has recently created a new task force for Christian films. All interested parties are welcome to join and contribute.
Member contest of the month
Given the lateness of the newsletter last month, the contest from last month continues. Anyone who can bring any of the few Stub class articles among the project's 1000 most often accessed articles by the end of June will get an award. Please see the details Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Christianity#Project challenge of the month.
Welcome to the Ninth issue of the WikiProject Christianity newsletter! Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.
I am in the process of going through the various categories related to Christianity. I am finding that several of them may not have sufficient number of members to continue. By the end of the month, I hope to have the main category list finished (yeah, it might take that long, it's huge). At that time, I think we will review all the categories and see which may not have sufficient articles to continue. Please feel free to take part in the discussion regading what the minimum number of category items is, and how to deal with the non-qualifying categories, on the General Forum page.

Hi Spencer, thanks for the messages, and definitely thanks for collapsing that huge mess! Yes, I agree with collapsing other sections and options, too. Bot help can certainly be hidden, and so can options in certain sections . . . Voting period comes to mind as particularly over-populated with unnecessary options. Anything that helps us zoom in on discussion and keep this alive is a go-er, in my opinion! I was also considering looking through the discussion and beginning to consolidate/move/tally up the sections that are more advanced. Almost everything in "multiple images in a single nom", for example, is decided . . . perhaps we need a completely separate header underneath the current survey for results, and move the multiple images section there, collapse it in a box, and then summarise the results with bullet points. I hope to spend some time there this weekend, but the next couple of days are going to be busy for me, and I have a DYK possibility on which time is ticking! So please feel free to make a start if you wish, and/or I will muck in at the weekend, too. Thanks! Maedin\talk 07:09, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
Wow, what a big start to Round 3! We already have people past the 50 point mark, in one week. We can tell that this round is going to be tight, and we'll likely see every Top 8 contestant with over 500 (maybe 400) points by the end of this round. Keep working hard! – weburiedoursecretsinthegarden, iMatthew : Chat , and TheHelpfulOne

Turns out last week's newsletter was never sent out. Sorry about that! Since we already had it done, we are sending you both. This newsletter is the one for this week though. Anyway, we're seeing you guys working really hard. There are a few of you over 100 points in the first two weeks. Also, we have switched Ottava Rima from Pool D to Pool B, and Shoemaker's Holiday (who has withdrawn) from Pool B to Pool D. Scorpion0422 is more than likely to withdraw before this round ends, because he will be inactive next round. That would leave 2 contestants in Pool B. So, to make things fairly even, we have switched the two contestants. Sorry for all of the confusion!
Finally, we know it's very early, but you can already sign up for the 2010 WikiCup, here! We want to get everything ready way in advance for next year. So we opened the list up, and we'll start working things out in September/October, most likely. Information is all on the page, and you may leave any questions on the talk page. So go sign up before your favorite flag is taken! 'weburiedoursecretsinthegarden, iMatthew : Chat , and TheHelpfulOne

Re:Some GAs
Latest comment: 14 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
Hi Spencer, that sounds like a good idea and will give some extra encouragement for anyone trying to recruit new people to the ITN process by allowing everybody to see what can be achieved from humble beginnings. I can't think of a good enough reason to oppose turning Operation Seabight into a GA so that would be a yes. What do you think is missing/required? --candle•wicke 23:40, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi Spenc, Are you still doing the ITN notifications? --brewcrewer(yada, yada) 23:00, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
Some ITN candidates
Latest comment: 14 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion
Hi, Spencer. BorgQueen is not interested, Tone is not responding and nobody has commented so I would like your opinion on these for ITN. Henry Allingham has broken a world record that has been in place since 2007 and I'm not sure Europe holds this record very often either. Also the world is getting hungrier and the world is reporting this hunger. What do you think of both of them? --candle•wicke 07:59, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
I'm stalking this talkpage for now, so I'll give my uninvited opinion. Although I hate to say this, the first story is more interesting. --brewcrewer(yada, yada) 08:21, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
Yes, but you see I imagine the second story is no problem although nobody seems to care about it. The first I thought would be opposed on it being a statistic and one which is broken regularly although nobody expressed much interest in that either. However, it was last broken in 2007 which is long enough by ITN standards and I'm sure it's extremely unusual for the world's oldest man to be living in the UK... --candle•wicke 08:26, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
