Test

I just wanted to inform people who state they are fans of the team that I've created a WikiProject for them and would like to see everyone join! There is much work to be done. Also, feel free to join the city project I created, also. (Mind meal 13:33, 6 August 2007 (UTC))[reply]


Uhm...

You can't be a Cubs fan AND a Reds fan... That's like loving both the Bengals and the Browns. It just can't happen. RiSK (talk) 21:40, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah... it gets a little contentious sometimes. However, I would not say it's like Browns/Bengals because there's no real rivalry like Cubs/Cards.--kubfann (talk) 05:08, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Phi Sigma Kappa - UVA

[edit]

What was the basis for editing the charter range for Psi chapter?

I did revisit the history and found somewhat conflicting reports. In some cases, the chapter was reported closed 1917-1921 and, in others, that it was simply recommended for closing.

However, it definitely became inactive during the Great Depression.

"The 1936 Convention was held at Ithaca...During the previous two years three chapters had become inactive, those at...and the University of Virginia." - Rand, Frank Prentice; Ralph Watts, James E.

WikiProject C-SPAN?

[edit]

Greetings fellow Wikipedia editor -

I am leaving you this note because I have reason to believe that you are interested in C-SPAN. (I may have made this assumption based on your C-SPAN user box, or perhaps for some other reason.) If this is not an interest of yours, please feel free to read no further and delete this message.

If you are in fact someone who is interested in C-SPAN, then let me put forward an idea that I have been kicking around for a while. What if we started a C-SPAN WikiProject?

The parameters of this (potential) project are up for discussion, but it could include some or all of the following (as well as things that may occur to you that have not occurred to me):

  • Creation, maintenance, and improvement of articles and lists directly related to C-SPAN and its programming.
  • Use of C-SPAN programming in citations for various topics
  • Inclusion of unique and targeted C-SPAN video links for various articles. (Doing this with respect for established guidelines at Wikipedia:External links.) (Example: If you are interested in the submarine USS Wyoming (SSBN-742), then having easy access to the eight hours of programming taped while a C-SPAN crew were guests on that submarine could also be of interest to you.)
  • Inclusion of (and possible further creation of) templated links such as {{C-SPAN|laurabush}}, that will easily take article readers to a link of all C-SPAN Video Library links for the person about whom the article is about.
  • What else?

I don't know exactly how far we may want to go, nor in what directions, but I do believe (as I have long noted on my user page) that C-SPAN and Wikipedia are both...

...fantastic vehicles for the free exchange of ideas and information in a non-sound-bite manner, and they both invite the participation of any parties (expert or amateur) who are interested in taking the time to absorb and/or contribute to the ideas and information offered. C-SPAN and Wikipedia go together like peanut butter and jelly, and I want to help give other Wiki users easy access to the great work that C-SPAN has done on a variety of topics.

Now, I should mention that I have never started a WikiProject before, and I do not know the best way to go about it. (Perhaps one of you do?) Let me offer one of my sandbox pages, User:KConWiki/sandbox/Wikiproject C-SPAN?, as a gathering area for comments until such time as we gather enough steam to start our own WikiProject page.

Thanks for reading this far, and I hope that you will give some consideration as to whether this is something we ought to attempt. Please feel free to pass this message on to others you know whom might be interested, and please let me know your thoughts and comments.
