Who else have you asked to complete the questionnaire. I am not really a very good representative of the project.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 06:52, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

I've invited several editors, but that shouldn't dissuade you from adding your comments. The more voices, the better. –Mabeenot (talk) 23:30, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

WikiProject Sociology report - illustrations

Hi, I am not too familiar with the theoretical aspects of Sociology, nor with their illustrations. But here are a few files from Commons that may well be suitable to illustrate some of the more experimental or empirical aspects:

Images?

Have any images for the WPP report this week? I'll put one of your choice on the front page. Nice job this week! Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 01:54, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

This is a hard one to illustrate. I'd go with either this map or the project's unofficial mascot. –Mabeenot (talk) 02:09, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
Thanks, I've gone with the former! Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 02:30, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

Welcome to the IEG Committee

Hi Mabeenot,
Thanks for signing up to join the Individual Engagement Grants Committee! It is my pleasure to confirm your membership. We've got a lot to accomplish together, particularly during the next 2 months, and it will be awesome to have your help. Here is how to get started:


To make your membership official, please do 2 things by Tuesday April 1:

  1. Introduce yourself in the IdeaLab.
  2. Send your email address and preferred username to IEGrants@wikimedia.org, so that we can subscribe you to the committee mailing list and get you setup on the committee's internal wiki.

Then there are 3 first tasks for active committee members to start on right away:

  1. Read the information in the Committee Workroom (your committee organizing hub on meta), beginning with the getting started guide for new members.
  2. Join a working group.
  3. Start giving feedback on open ideas, drafts and proposals. Asking questions to gather information you’ll need to make a recommendation helps prospective grantees think their projects all the way through, and will give us more great proposals to choose from.


Our formal review of proposals starts on 21 April. I’ll be posting information about scoring and selection of proposals on the committee mailing list and in the Workroom soon, so please keep an eye there!

Thanks again for joining us to help make impactful IEGrants :-) Siko (WMF) (talk) 17:05, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

project reports
Thank you for quality articles such as Robert Stewart Hyer, for contributions to articles on "universities, politics, music composers, software, trains, historical events, and old buildings", and for your consistent coverage of projects for the Signpost, such as Germany, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

WP Law in the Signpost interview

Hi Mabeenot,

I see that you will be writing a wikiproject report about WP law and have invited editors to participate in the interview. I was wondering if you may be interested in inviting user:Famspear to participate. The timing is probably not the best for a tax lawyer and I don't even know if Famspear is a member of the wikiproject, if not all the better.

There are also some very shy editors plugging away at Canadian law - I don't know if they are members of the wikiproject and if they have an interest in stepping into the limelight. XOttawahitech (talk) 12:56, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Ottawahitech, I've got to go to work right now but please invite Famspear on my behalf. As a word of warning, the interview has been moved up to this week, so be sure he knows that time is of the essence. –Mabeenot (talk) 13:12, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject report

Hey Mabeenot, I went to copy in the latest WikiProject report, but you don't have any drafts done... what's up? Please let me know asap, as I'm going to publish around 23:30 or 00:00 UTC today! Thanks, Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 17:57, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

No report this week. Best, –Mabeenot (talk) 21:04, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for getting back to me so soon! What are your plans for the succeeding weeks? Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 01:02, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
I've been letting the Report run on auxiliary for a few weeks while I've been busy in RL, but my reserve options have run dry. I'll have to put together some fresh interviews this weekend. Depending on the responses we get, we may have something ready for next week. –Mabeenot (talk) 13:38, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
My apologies for missing this reply. I see that you'd updated the WPPR desk with your schedule—thanks for keeping this up over so many years! Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 23:44, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
Hey Mabeenot, how are the interviews coming along? Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 18:18, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
They're not. No report this week, unfortunately. –Mabeenot (talk) 00:30, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
Alright, thanks for letting me know. I'd really like to get this report back on its feet—let me know if you'd like me to look for help for you! Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 20:49, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
Hey Mabeenot, would it be okay to look for someone to help you out? I see that you have an interview done with the Cities WikiProject, but I think that having someone else around would take some of the pressure off of you. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 02:47, 16 June 2014 (UTC)

Hey there! I've found a lare collection of Native American images, but I don't know which are particularly valuable. Could you possibly flip through http://lcweb2.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=rbc3&fileName=rbc0001_2003gen0002page.db&recNum=9 (just hit previous and next to navigate, on the image to expand it a bit), and [1] and let me know if there's any that'd be good to have?

WikiProject desk

Dear Mabeenot:

I'm an editor affiliated with WikiProject Baseball, a group that focuses on improving articles about the history, prestige, and statistical anomalies of baseball. As the main editor of the WikiProject desk at The Signpost, I am wondering if you are available to conduct an interview with a few members of our project for a WikiProject report: if so, that would be exceptional. If you're busy, I would like to request your permission to conduct such an interview.

Thank you for your time. Seattle (talk) 21:42, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
