Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any dicussion comment with four tildes (~~~~).

Orphaned fair use image (Image:0033-Cougars.web.JPG)

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:0033-Cougars.web.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --Durin 13:25, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Welcome!

Welcome!

Hi, and welcome to the Biography WikiProject! We're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of biographies.

A few features that you might find helpful:

• The project has a monthly newsletter; it will normally be delivered as a link, but several other formats are available.

There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:

• Starting some new articles? Our article structure tips outlines some things to include.
• Want to know how good our articles are? The assessment department is working on rating the quality of every biography article in Wikipedia.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask another fellow member, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! plange 16:57, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Could you edit Luol Deng and Steve Nash? thanks —The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:203.214.50.225 (talk • contribs).

Hello. I don't see anything overtly incivil about the above comment by 203. I checked both the articles he insists that you edit and both are articles on basketball players. Or is it that I'm missing something? Also he has only made one comment on your page [1]. He is a very new editor and needs some guidance, so with all newbies, it is best to excuse mistakes made (including the editing of your user page). If you suspect that 203 is user:Downwards you may request a checkuser. --Inahet 08:21, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Inahet, your eyes may deceive you. I will request a "checkuser", because I do believe that the unsigned user is not new but a veteran user who has hounded me before. The incivility I referred to was in making comments on my user page User:Sugar Daddy as opposed to this page. That behavior is specifically mentioned in WP:CIVIL. This user (along with the other user who I believe has made this one his sockpuppet) has made a practice of re-editing every article that I edit by reviewing my edit-history. While I guess there is nothing wrong with that, we now have a dispute about the Johnny Newman article. The user has repeatedly reverted out content that I added without explanation and refuses to discuss. Also, though the comments on this and my user page look innocuous, that is only because they lack context.Sugar Daddy 16:16, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies

Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of [unassessed articles] tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --Ozgod 22:49, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below) We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future. This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page New irc channel Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network: #wikipedia-en-bio Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

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.
