Welcome, newcomer!

Here are some useful tips to ease you into the Wikipedia experience:

* First, take a look at the [[Wikipedia:Tutorial|Wikipedia Tutorial]], and perhaps dabble a bit in the [[Wikipedia:Test area|test area]].
* When you have some free time, take a look at the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]] and [[Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines|Policies and Guidelines]]. They can come in very handy!
* Remember to use a [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]]!
* If you need any [[Wikipedia:Help|help]], feel free to post a question at the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|Help Desk]]
* Explore, [[Wikipedia:Be bold in updating pages|be bold in editing pages]], and, most importantly, have fun!

Also, here are some odds and ends that I find useful from time to time:

*[[Wikipedia:Policy Library]]
*[[Wikipedia:Utilities]]
*[[Wikipedia:Cite your sources]]
*[[Wikipedia:Verifiability]]
*[[Wikipedia:Wikiquette]]
*[[Wikipedia:Civility]]

==Illustrator Substubs==
Hi there. I notice that you've been adding a whole lot of substubs on illustrators (eg: [[Lou Myers]]). Please provide more information than "XXX is an illustrator" when you create new articles: Even something on what they illustrated, which country they illustrate in, anything to give the article some value, and to substantiate what you've written (right now, for all anyone knows, you made up the names). Rather wait until you have information on a topic before creating the article: If someone clicked [[Special:Randompage|Randompage]], and got that, they might have quite a poor opinion of the Wikipedia. (Sorry if this sounds a little harsh).
--[[User:Kierano|Kieran]] 16:04, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)

== Isaac Asimov article ==

Actually, note that it wasn't 63.202.21.27 that vandalised the Asimov article, it was 65.15.241.10.  Also, leaving messages on user_talk pages is more customary.  [[User:Alai|Alai]] 04:38, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

== Stubs ==
Hello! Thanks for your contributions. I just noted that you occasionally add a tag to articles with a format such as ''something-stub''. This is good, but please make sure the ''something-stub'' template exists before you add it, otherwise the article will have a weird red link at the end that doesn't have anything do with stubs. If it doesn't exist, you can create it yourself and then add it &mdash; but please do this before you add it to the article. Thanks! [[User:Oven Fresh| &#9999; <span style="color:#429717;">Oven</span><span style="color:#002bb8;">Fresh</span>]][[User Talk:Oven Fresh|<span style="font-size:120%;padding-left:2px;color:#5a3696;">²</span>]] 00:22, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hello there.  Thank you for editing the article [[Circumcision and Media Ethics]] which is listed on [[WP:VFD|VFD]].  Please feel free to vote on this issue.  Thank you very much for your contribution to this article.  [[User:Sirkumsize|Sirkumsize]] 03:07, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

== illustrators ==

I have a suggestion: Rather than create lots of sub-stubs that only say "so-and-so is an illustrator", why not create better articles for fewer people - tell what sort of an illustrator, where he/she is based, for how long they've worked and for whom - and particularly, telling why this illustrator should be featured in wikipedia when millions and millions of others aren't! That will help make sure your work surivives, too: Really short articles like this are sometimes taken as "vanity" pieces and deleted on sight! - [[User:DavidWBrooks|DavidWBrooks]] 15:57, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I would echo that point.  If you have a list you are using, why not create that list with red links. Link to the list from suitable articles.  And write longer pieces about the individuals where you can. Don't just write "Xxxxx Y. Zzzzz is an illustrator".  Ever.  Otherwise I will assume you are just writing about your friends and contacts, and may remove the substubs on sight. --[[User:Henrygb|Henrygb]] 01:00, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I would also echo that point, with an extra incentive... IMO  these minimal substubs qualify for [[Wikipedia:criteria for speedy deletion#Articles|speedy deletion]], under articles case #1. See [[Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Cliff Condak]], and I'd guess [[Steve Karchin]] and the others will not be far behind. So the result of your efforts is likely to be a waste of a lot of people's time, including your own. [[User:Andrewa|Andrewa]] 06:57, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

==Edit summary==

<p>When [[Wikipedia:How to edit a page|editing an article on Wikipedia]] there is a small field labelled "[[Wikipedia:Edit summary|Edit summary]]" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:</p> [[Image:Edit_Summary-2.png|Edit summary text box]]<!--

--><p>The text written here will appear on the [[Special:Recentchanges|Recent changes]] page, in the [[Wikipedia:Page history|page revision history]], on the [[m:MediaWiki User's Guide: Diff|diff page]], and in the [[meta:MediaWiki User's Guide: Using the Watchlist|watchlists]] of users who are watching that article. See [[m:Help:Edit summary]] for full information on this feature.</p><!--

--><p>When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for [[WP:-(|vandalism]] and may be [[WP:RV|reverted]], so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. </p><!-- Template:Summary -->  [[User:Oleg Alexandrov|Oleg Alexandrov]] 16:06, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

: And thank you for your great work in classifying stubs. [[User:Oleg Alexandrov|Oleg Alexandrov]] 16:09, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

==[[Baishakh]]==
The article is in no way related to India. So the stub sorting done is completely wrong. I do understand the good-natured effort, but it is like assigning a France-stub to a Germany related article, which is incorrect. --[[User:Ragib|Ragib]] 04:41, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)


== George Shrinks ==
If you have anymore information about George Shrinks please add whatever you have. --[[User:Contrib|Contrib]] 15:56, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

==Name-stub==
Hi Hailey - 
I note you've created a new stub category. Did you realise that stub categories should normally be cleared by [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting]] before creation? That way they can be vetted to check that there are a viable number of stubs (at least 60-100) and that the category does not cross the existing stub hierarchy before the stub is created. 

If you can provide any information on why these stubs were created, please add a note to entry for these stubs at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Criteria#Newly-discovered stub categories]] giving the reason for the stubs. In addition, if there is any Wikiproject associated with these stubs add that information.

In the case of name-stub it looks it will be a useful category, but if you're planning to make any more categories, we'd like to know first! Oh, and if you're interested in helping sort stubs, we're always looking for new members of the project! 

One more thing - the ''single most important thing'' a stub template must have is its own dedicated category. Otherwise, you're just consigning the stubs marked into the void, or worse, sending them back into [[:Category:Stub]], which we're trying to clear them from. I have created a [[:Category:Name stubs]] for the template... [[User:Grutness| Grutness]]|<sup>[[User_talk:Grutness|hello?]]</sup> [[Image:Grutness.jpg|25px|]] 07:19, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

:Mmm. You've been busy, haven't you... ride-stub, tourism-stub, furniture-stub... any more? [[User:Grutness| Grutness]]|<sup>[[User_talk:Grutness|hello?]]</sup> [[Image:Grutness.jpg|25px|]] 11:02, 2 May 2005 (UTC)

==Removing stub tags==
I've seen you remove stub tags from articles without replacing them with something better, although the tags seemed to fit. Examples include [[Akimoto Tsubasa]], [[Ahmad Zaki (actor)|Ahmad Zaki]], [["John Wayne" Edwards]], [[A. K. Fazlul Huq]], and [[Aaron Ruell]]. In some cases, there was another stub tag left, in other cases, there wasn't.  What's the reasoning behind that? [[User:Rl|Rl]] 16:34, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

==Famous dogs==
Thanks for adding all those dogs to the breed articles.  Were you working off the [[List of historical dogs]] list as well as [[:Category:Famous dogs]]?  Just checking--  [[User:Elf|Elf]] | [[User talk:Elf|Talk]] 20:05, 2 May 2005 (UTC)

== Kincardine Bridge stub ==

Hi. I noticed you changed [[Kincardine Bridge]] from stub to UK-related stub. Just want to mention that the [[Friarton Bridge]] entry, which I worked on recently, was made a UK Buildings and Structures stub and you might want to consider using that for Kincardine too? --[[User:Erath|Erath]] 13:56, May 4, 2005 (UTC)

== more stub stuff ==

Hi, Hailey:

I noticed another of your "not-really-a-stub-tag" stub tags on [[outline]].  (It was <nowiki>{{writing-stub}}</nowiki>.)  I see other editors have already mentioned this to you.  I think it would be really nice if you would go through some of the articles you've tagged (check your "User contributions") and retag them with viable stub tags.  I've found it personally useful to put a link to [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types]] on my user page so I have a quick reference to the list of approved stub tags.  Thanks, [[User:Soundguy99|Soundguy99]] 08:03, 6 May 2005 (UTC)


== Quick stub tip ==

Hi there. You tagged [[Platonic_epistemology]] with <nowiki>{{phil-stub}}</nowiki> - a stub type which doesn't exist. I've amended it to <nowiki>{{philosophy-stub}}</nowiki> for you. If you're not sure whether a stub type exists, you can preview the page as normal; and if in doubt then typing the full subject name (eg philosophy and not just phil) will always yield the desired result. Best wishes, [[User:Reetep|reetep]] 20:00, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== Bert Williams ==

"In hospital" was not a typo, though it may have been a bit of a Briticism. "In hospital" would be the dominant use in the UK: "in the hospital" would only be used if a particular hospital were at issue. (And I bet your form of English would prefer "was" to "were" in that last sentence. Neither is wrong, these are just matters of language variation.) -- [[User:Jmabel|Jmabel]] | [[User talk:Jmabel|Talk]] 18:16, July 31, 2005 (UTC)

== [[:Image:Aunt jemima.gif]] ==

Hi, I just wanted to let you know I added an <nowiki>{{</nowiki>'''[[:Template:Unverified|unverified]]'''<nowiki>}}</nowiki> tag to [[:Image:Aunt jemima.gif]]. If you still know where the image comes from and/or under which licence it can be used, it'd be great if you could fill in that information on its description page. Thanks. :) -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schnee]] (''[[User talk:Schneelocke|cheeks clone]]'') 20:46, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

== If you've been wondering where all the article's you started went to... ==

Have you read [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion]]?  Specifically, A7: "An article about a real person that does not assert that person's importance or significance."  You have created '''lots''' of articles of the form "'''X''' is a Y."  These just get quickly swept up as falling under that category.  It would be more pleasent for everyone if you would add them to [[Wikipedia:Requested articles]](you can add glosses, like you have been, to requests there), and stop adding to the load of Speedy Deletions that need to be done.

== Peer review ==

Hello! I have just come on your talk page, and right now I'm asking you to comment on the article dealing with ''[[The Care Bears Movie II: A New Generation]]'' as part of its now-ongoing [[Wikipedia:Peer review/The Care Bears Movie II: A New Generation|peer review]].

I remember you helped out a lot on the Bears' [[:simple:Care Bears|Simple English]] article a while ago, so that makes you my best bet.

Please send a reply on the peer page as soon as possible! --[[User:Slgrandson|Slgrandson]] 15:21, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Now I'm focusing on the pages on [[Care Bears]] and their [[The Care Bears Movie|first movie]], and I'm asking you to look at both articles and tell me what can be done further to improve them. I am intent on making both of them [[WP:FA|featured articles]] very soon. Leave comments on their [[Wikipedia:Peer review/Care Bears/archive2|peer]] [[Wikipedia:Peer review/The Care Bears Movie|pages]]. Wish me luck! --[[User:Slgrandson|Slgrandson]] 04:35, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

== Wacky Neighbor ==

Hi -- I guess I was taking a small liberty with the term "neighbor." I figured in a show that seldom or never showed anyone's home (Cheers, Barney Miller), certainly there could still be a wacky neighbor -- maybe the wierd guy in the next cubicle, the manager of the restaurant next door, the uniformed officer who wants to be a plainclothes detective, etc. Note The Stuart's comment on 22 August -- he says Joey on Friends isn't a wacky neighbor because he is one of the main characters. So I figured a wacky neighbor could be any supporting or lesser character who is not a main character, and who is kind of quirky. I would argue that Klinger on MASH IS a wacky neighbor: he certainly was quirky, and in such a small "town" as a MASH unit, wasn't everyone a "neighbor"? Same thing with Festus on Gunsmoke: Dodge was a small town. No, it wasn't a sit-com, but the article doesn't state "exclusively in situation comedy." Still, I do respect your opinion on this matter, and I draw my colors. Would it be ok to list "every character other than Oliver and Lisa on Green Acres"?

== Squeezit ==

Hello- I added some cats to your article about [[Squeezit]].  However, a Yahoo search turned up only results for a device used to squeeze toothpaste tubes.  I also could not find it on the General Mills site.  Are you sure that you spelled Squeezit correctly?  The only product I can think off hand that is similar to what you described is Kool-Aid Coolers.  Thanks, [[User:Gilliamjf|Gilliamjf]] 00:14, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:4019 1109 1 md.jpg]]'''. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the [[copyright]] status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{tl|GFDL}} to release it under the [[GFDL]]. If you can claim [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] use {{tlp|Non-free fair use in|article name}} or {{tl|fairuse}}.  See [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags]] for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by clicking on the "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]].

==Request for edit summary==
Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use [[edit summaries]] a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage  is 0% for major edits and 7% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 27 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear inpolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the [[User talk:Mathbot/Feedback on the summary bot|feedback page]].

=== Preventing an edit war on the saints ===
It was the established operation of the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Saints|WikiProject Saints]] to have a section in the info box on a sample prayer. Some editors have been recently been attacking this in the individual articles.

It is my belief that prayers in a literary or historic context are [[WP:NPOV|NPOV]]. I can understand that some may consider the inclusion of a prayer to be [[hagiographic]], but freedom of religion is not freedom from religion.

There is a [[WP:3RR|3RR]] about to happen on a number of these articles. I am trying to be philosophical about this, but don’t want to yield the point when what is happening goes against the consensus and borders on vandalism. 

It is my understanding that if an editing disagreement occurs that the status quo, in this case leaving the prayers in place, holds until it is resolved. I encourage you to comment on this at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Saints]]. I have posted my thoughts at [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28assistance%29#Preventing_an_edit_war_over_the_Saints|the village pump]].

== Christian Wiki ==

Hi,

Just wanted to let you know about a christianity wiki that was recently started and has now moved to it's own server. Because of your interest in the Saints Project and because you are a Lutheran, I think you would be a valuable member of our team and I'd love to have your contributions.

We are just about ready to go live!

As soon as we finalize the CPOV policy, I think we're ready to "go public" with this project and invite the world! We can submit to DMOZ and Google and start getting some real active hits on that site.

Please take a look and see if this project is something you would like to get behind. the URL is: [http://christ.relately.com/ ChristWiki]

==[[Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2006_May_31#Category:Works_in_the_Louvre|CfD nomination for Category:Works in the Louvre]]==

Hi Hailey C., I've nominated [[:Category:Works in the Louvre]] for deletion on [[WP:CFD|CfD]] because it seems redudant to me, what with [[:Category:Collections of the Louvre]]. As you created the category, I thought it was only proper to let you know. [[User:Ham|H<small>AM</small>]] [[Image:SaintPierre4.JPG|15px]] 12:20, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

== 19XX introductions ==

While patroling red category links, I just removed a number of these before registering the pattern.  Looking into it further, I see you just added most of them within the last few days.  I will stop removing them, but I ask you in response to please build out the categories themselves.  Just adding red category links to pages is only 1/2 the job.  If the links are to actually be of any use, the categories that they link to need to exist.  Thank you in advance. - [[User:TexasAndroid|TexasAndroid]] 15:54, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, 16XX, too.  What's up with these new category links?  I just noticed a new red one on [[slide rule]] and lots of your recent contributions.  Are these some kind of generally sanctioned categories, or a new thing of your own?

Hi Hailey. I was wandering around this evening, and the Random button brought me to the [[Fred Pfeiffer]] article you created some time ago.

==Deleting Circuses.com on [[Ankus]]==

Hi, I wanted to ask you about removing the circuses.com reference on [[Ankus]]. I agree that it is propaganda, but it is also the source of some of the information in the article. I think it is better to leave the link there so people can see the nature of the source, rather than leave it looking like some of the hyperbole in the article is unbiased fact. DO you think it might be a good idea to leave it? Thanks[[User:Ms408|Ms408]] 16:38, 24 March 2007 (UTC).

==Your character subcategories==

Changing from a broad 1951 (etc.) introduction to something like Characters introduced in 1951 makes some sense except that our naming conventions emphasize that we need to stress the fictional nature of fictional characters. It should be [[Fictional characters introduced in 1951]], etc. Also, if you want the subcats to do more than survive, you ought to discuss the new subcats on the CfD talk page to get feedback and to get more people involved.

When/if the change is implemented, it ought to be done more methodically. Build up each year's catory when possible.

==Fair use disputed for Image:MisdemeanorUFO.jpg==
[[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|32px|left]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:MisdemeanorUFO.jpg]]'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]] carefully, then go to [[:Image:MisdemeanorUFO.jpg|the image description page]] and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our [[WP:CSD#Images/media|Criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:No fair -->[[User:BetacommandBot|BetacommandBot]] 23:23, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

==[[Wikipedia:WikiProject recruitment for WikiProjects|Invitation to WikiProject recruitment for WikiProjects]]==
Hailey,

Would you be interested in trying to make your (proposed) WikiProject becoming a succes by actively involving yourself in a recruitment agency aimed at establishing an active base of participants for a WikiProject?--[[User:Daanschr|Daanschr]] 11:29, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes I think so?
--Hailey 16:10, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

:I invited some people who proposed a WikiProject on the WikiProject proposal article. Yuo wanted to start a WikiProject Circus. My recruiting project could help you in finding participants and i hope you want to help others in recruiting participants. That is the central focus. Two of my WikiProjects failed due to a lack of succes, so i am trying something new in order to make these projects a succes.--[[User:Daanschr|Daanschr]] 08:48, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

== Russell Brand - propaganda ==
I noticed you removed references to Russell Brand winning the Sexiest Vegetarian awards from PETA, claiming these were propaganda. These awards may be blatant publicity stunts by PETA but it is nonetheless a fact that Russell received them and refered to them repeatedly on his BBC Radio 2 show. Do we refuse to even acknowledge events that were motivated in this way? Surely it is more appropriate to mention them and add a note allowing readers to judge for themselves. --[[User:C i wood|Chris Wood]] ([[User talk:C i wood|talk]]) 09:52, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

== Great to see you working on Find-A-Grave L/La! ==

see you're working here again (you were there before me) - hope you like the breaks I made!

While working on [[Wikipedia:Find-A-Grave famous people/T]], I found that it was much more satisfying to work on a chunk of 20-or-so and feel that I'd finished than to work on a list of 100 and see it shrink by just a little bit each day - that's my reasoning for making them; there's no particular principle behind it!

As the sections get smaller after the prune, we can delete the breaks to make them "conveniently sized" again. Nobody's using these pages for anything but tidying up anyway, so we're reasonably free to do what's best. Feel free to modify!

Have fun! --[[User:Alvestrand|Alvestrand]] ([[User talk:Alvestrand|talk]]) 06:10, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

OK... so I've began to assess the robotics articles.  Please review the article assessment guidelines and help this WikiProject out by helping out with the following:

* Adding Robotics-related articles to the WikiProject
* Assessing robotics articles listed in [[:Category:Robotics articles by quality]]
* Helping out with giving comments to individual articles after assessment, pointers, comments, etc.  (basically, don't just give an article class and move on, let people know what led you to give such a rating when necessary.

We need to get this article assessment drive going first before peer reviews and collaborations programs can be made.

A tag has been placed on [[Template:Circus]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#T3|section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes ({{tl|transclusionless}}).

While they certainly do look nice, there are issues with respect to copyright and decorative use of flag images. (This is better explained in the style guideline [[WP:FLAG]].) Please feel free to ask if you have any questions about this. As for the note regarding  clicking on arrows, I'll take a look at the template code and see if it is worth enabling that functionality.

==Howdy! Mind if I give a few tips?==

I don't want to sound smug or stuck-up or anything, but from the situation over at [[Pooh's Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin]], it looks like you could use some pointers in handling vandalism. Rather than yelling at vandals on their talk pages (as tempting as that can be), it's often best to just respond with one of the templates given at [[wp:warning]]. Just hit them with the first vandalism template if it's minor, or the second if it's more blatant. From there, you can move up to the third if they do it again, and the fourth if they do it yet  AGAIN. After that, you've warned them sufficiently that you can go report them at [[wp:aiv]] for their actions, generally. I went ahead and hit this guy with the "first and only warning" template, since he's had WAY more than enough fun with this whole situation, but that's not generally recommended as a first resort. If this is unclear to you at all, or you have any questions, feel free to drop a note at my talk page. - [[User:Vianello|Vianello]] ([[User talk:Vianello|talk]]) 03:59, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

==Speedy deletion of [[:Image:Cpks.jpg]]==

== Roger Williamson ==

Hi Hailey. I was just wondering: What was your rationale for removing {{cl|Filmed deaths}} from [[Roger Williamson]]? [[User:DH85868993|DH85868993]] ([[User talk:DH85868993|talk]]) 02:32, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

==[[The Quarrymen]]==
Thanks for linking the Boy Scout/Girl Guides stuff. I thought I should do it, but then again, maybe I was waiting for a good person like yourself to come along and do it. I thank you, Hailey. :)--[[User:Andreasegde|andreasegde]] ([[User talk:Andreasegde|talk]]) 19:29, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

== Johnny Horizon ==

I was wondering why you removed those two categories from the [[Johnny Horizon]] article.  That character was first used as a mascot in 1968 and its use was terminated in 1982.  There doesn't seem to be a better pair of categories for a mascot, and in that absence a mascot fits within the "other things" mentioned in the category descriptions. <span style="font-family:cursive">[[User:Caerwine|Caerwine]]</span> [[User_talk:Caerwine|<small style="font-family:sans-serif;color:darkred">Caer’s whines</small>]] 20:33, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Establishments are not the right thing for that, and when used on something like that, it just sounds silly!--Hailey 20:41, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

== Atlantis Plastics shooting ==

<s>I'm sure you have a good reason for removing the category "Spree Shootings" from the referenced article.  However, HotCat apparently doesn't give you the option of providing an explanation.  Please do so manually on the article's [[Talk:Atlantis Plastics shooting|talk page]].  Thanks.  --[[User:Arthur Smart|Art Smart]] ([[User talk:Arthur Smart|talk]]) 16:05, 29 June 2008 (UTC)</s>  Never mind.  Someone else answered my question on the talk page.

*It happened again; I undid the vandal's edits.  The account still needs to be blocked, and the image should probably be deleted.  It looks like a user who has reduced his opportunities to edit Wikipedia due to being blocked so often, and has started vandalising other wikis. --[[User:Snigbrook|Snigbrook]] [[User talk:Snigbrook|<sup><span style="color:red">(</span><span style="color:green">talk</span><span style="color:red">)</span></sup>]] 03:23, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to the Eighth 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.  

As many of you will know, we currently have several articles relating to the same basic topics. The articles in the [[:Category:Baptism]] are one example of such. It is really in the interests of all of us to try to place as much content in the main article of such topics, and then have the other articles "branch off" from there and making the central article as good an article as possible. We also now have a proposal for a new general "Christianity" related award, similar to the Military history project's chevrons, at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/General Forum]].

==Speedy deletion of [[:CMG Worldwide]]==
[[Image:Ambox warning_pn.svg|48px|left]] A tag has been placed on [[:CMG Worldwide]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G12|section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be a blatant [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright]] infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of ''information'', but not as a source of ''sentences''. This part is crucial: ''say it in your own words''.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include ''on the external site'' the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the [http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html GNU Free Documentation License], Version 1.2 and later."

==Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice==
Hi,

As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the [[m:Wikimania 2010/Bids/Oxford|Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference]]. Please see [[m:Wikimania 2010/Bids/Oxford#Local team|here]] for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.

We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to [[m:Wikimedia UK v2.0|the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page]] and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.

You may also wish to attend [[Wikipedia:Meetup/London 13|the next London meet-up]] at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch [[Wikipedia:Meetup]], for updates on future meets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

just a note (since I got an edit conflict)..... I'm currently working through the Ms of the Find-A-Grave list, searching to see if we have those people listed under another name. This involves keeping the buffers open for a while, so it's easy to get an edit conflict if something else happens - and while I'm working, bluelinks will appear.

== Adding missing biographies ==

Thanks for working with me on adding missing biographies from that list! I believe we can finish all of them in a couple of months. As you may know, there are a lot of deletionists on Wikipedia these days who delete stubs, so I wonder if you could add a reference to each one you create? That will make it much less likely the articles will be deleted. In addition, I have found a number of those short blurbs on that list contain errors, and adding a reference can help avoid introducing those errors into article space. Google News and Google Books have entries on all of these people. As an example, I did the [[Hardy Cross Dillard]] stub you created. It takes an extra minute or two, but it will help you avoid getting into a deletion discussion with a deletionist trying to erase your work. Thanks again for the work you're doing!

Hello.

:*If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted ''under the [[GFDL]]'' or that the material is ''released into the public domain'' leave a note at [[Talk:Eugenio Montero Ríos]] with a link to where we can find that note. 
:*If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org ''or'' a postal message to the [http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Contact_us Wikimedia Foundation] permitting re-use ''under the [[GFDL]]'', and note that you have done so on [[Talk:Eugenio Montero Ríos]].

==Speedy deletion of [[:Eugenio Montero Ríos]]==
[[Image:Ambox warning_pn.svg|48px|left]] A tag has been placed on [[:Eugenio Montero Ríos]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G12|section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be a blatant [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright]] infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of ''information'', but not as a source of ''sentences''. This part is crucial: ''say it in your own words''.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]]. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission]]. You might want to look at [[Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]] for more details, or ask a question [[Wikipedia:Help desk|here]]. 

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to '''the top of [[:Eugenio Montero Ríos|the page that has been nominated for deletion]]''' (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on '''[[ Talk:Eugenio Montero Ríos|the talk page]]''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay.

== [[:Category:Resturants established in 1921]] ==
I notice that [[:Category:Resturants established in 1921|this category]] you created is unpopulated (empty).  In other words, no Wikipedia pages belong to it.  If it remains unpopulated for four days, it may be deleted, without discussion, in accordance with [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#C1]].  I'm notifying you in case you wish to (re-)populate it by adding <nowiki>[[Category:</nowiki>Resturants established in 1921<nowiki>]]</nowiki> to articles/categories that belong in it.

I blanked the category page.  This will not, in itself, cause the category to be deleted.  It serves to document (in the page history) that the category was empty at the time of blanking and also to alert other watchers that the category is in jeopardy.  You are welcome to [[Help:Reverting|revert]] the blanking if you wish.  However, doing so will not prevent deletion if the category remains empty.

If you created the category in error, or it is no longer needed, you can speed up the deletion process by tagging it with {{tl|db-author}}.

Welcome to the Eighth 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.  

Hello from the new [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Films/Christian films task force|Christian films task force]]! I was recently apart of founding a task force, so this is the story. For several months, I would not only contribute to [[Christian film]]s, groups, etc., but I'd also see other users working on similar articles. I really wanted to create a project for us to work from. [[User:Filmcom|Filmcom]] contacted me about trying to get a task force going, so we began working together on it. When it appeared the idea was dying, we continued to fight, and several other users joined!

Thanks to the efforts of many users, I'd like to introduce you to the '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Films/Christian films task force|Christian films task force]]'''! We are currently having a bot tag all Christian film-related articles, and we are working to define our project scope. We now have [[:File:Golden Cross Clapperboard.svg|our own icon]] and shortcut ([[WP:CFTF]]), with ten users signed out thus far - these are just some of the things that have been happening in the last few days. If you have any interest in joining such a project, we welcome everyone to join and get involved.

; From the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Members|Members]]
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 [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/General Forum|General Forum]] page.

==Category:Monopoly (game) ==
I've removed the [[:Category:Monopoly (game)|Monopoly (game)]] from some of the articles you've added it to. I understand what you are trying to do, but I feel this is too trivial a category for many of the pages. The [[Wikipedia:Categorization|category guideline]] is that categories should be "based on essential, 'defining' features of article subjects." They should thus not be placed based on minor factoids. For articles like [[BC Rail]] or [[Goods and Services Tax (Canada)‎]] their inclusion on a Canadian edition of Monopoly is of quite minor overall importance. - [[User:SimonP|SimonP]] ([[User talk:SimonP|talk]]) 18:45, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

; Project news
* The Christianity project and its related projects currently have 75 FAs, 8 FLs, and 147 GAs<!--, which includes 4 more FAs-->, with a net loss of one FA and one GA. Our thanks to those who helped keep some other articles listed, and to those who have worked so diligently in improving all of our articles.  

; Member news
*Three new members joined this past month, including new members [[User:116Calvinist]], [[User:Lrnngrbc]], and [[User:Frazz]], bringing us up to 295 listed members. Thanks to you all, and a special welcome to our new members! 
* 
; Other news
* Two new pages for the benefit of members of the project have been created. [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Mutual aid society]] is designed to be a place where editors seeking specific assistance from other members can with luck find others who have the abilities or materials they need, and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Special collections]] is, at this point, the beginnings of a list of publicly accessible special collections libraries which our members might find useful. Anyone who lives near one of the collections listed is encouraged to visit them and see if they can find anything they would like to read or use to improve some of our articles. There are always some discussions regarding project related activities at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/General Forum]].  I think the timing of the call for elections might have been bad (summer vacation, what was I thinking?), and have thus changed the period for individuals to run to be one of the project's coordinators. Individuals who have a particular interest or knowledge of specific fields within Christianity are encouraged to run, to serve as a kind of "unit coordinator" for that topic.

Welcome to the Eleventh 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.  

One area in particular need of attention right now is the content related to the [[Oriental Orthodox]] churches. Several of the topics within this field are of great importance, including the churches themselves, their histories, thinking, and some of the individuals associated with it. Unfortunately, the number of people who belong to the churches, and, correspondingly, the number of editors working on that content, is smaller than it could be. Anyone interested in helping to develop this content is more than welcome to look at the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Oriental Orthodoxy]] page and seeing where they can help out.

== Carpenter, Zimmerman & Timmerman ==

Hello,

I do not wish to discourage you, but surname pages normally do not have pictures as part of their info boxes. Occasionally they will have small pictures, forename related to the particular surname, within the article.   

Wikipedia can be confusing for what is allowed and not allowed. And for what is normally accepted and frowned upon, but not well documented! There are numerous "special pages" that give guidelines to how to create, modify and adjust pages in Wikipedia.   

I am not an administrator, but a user who has struggled learning the system and still finds things new all the time. Please keep up the "nonsense" and graffiti patrol. It really helps!

Take care,

This has been done under [[WP:CSD#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[WP:CSD#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], such articles may be deleted at any time. Please [[Wikipedia:Notability|see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable]], as well as our subject-specific [[Wikipedia:Notability (people)|notability guideline for biographies]]. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the [[Wikipedia:Article wizard2.0|Article Wizard]]. 

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to '''the top of [[:Monica Lamb-Powell|the page that has been nominated for deletion]]''' (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on '''[[Talk:Monica Lamb-Powell|the talk page]]''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact [[:Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles|one of these admins]] to request that they  [[Wikipedia:Userfication#Userfication_of_deleted_content|userfy]] the page or have a copy emailed to you. <!-- Template:Db-bio-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> &mdash; [[:User:RHaworth|RHaworth]]&nbsp;{{toolbar|separator=dot|[[:User talk:RHaworth|talk]] | [[:Special:Contributions/RHaworth|contribs]] }} 04:28, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

== [[Jerzy Bolesławski]] ==

Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons|biography of a living person]]: '''[[Jerzy Bolesławski]]'''. The community has decided that all new biographies of living persons must contain a [[WP:RS|reliable source]] that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article as per our [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verifiability policy]].

==File permission problem with File:Discoverystatue.PNG==
[[File:Copyright-problem.svg|64px|left]]
Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Discoverystatue.PNG]]'''. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license. 

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either 
* make a note permitting reuse under the [[WP:CC-BY-SA|CC-BY-SA]] or another acceptable free license (see [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Free licenses|this list]]) '''at the site of the original publication'''; or
* Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to '''{{NoSpamEmail|permissions-en|wikimedia.org}}''', stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter [[WP:CONSENT|here]].

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to '''{{NoSpamEmail|permissions-en|wikimedia.org}}'''. 

If you believe the media meets the criteria at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]], use a tag such as {{tlp|non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use]], and add a [[WP:NFURG|rationale]] justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags]] for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user=Hailey_C._Shannon}} your upload log]. '''Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged''', as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Files|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]].

== Redirects are different from dab pages ==

Hi. In [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mueller_calculus&diff=prev&oldid=372485448 this edit], your edit comment says you are repairing a link to a disambiguation page, but in fact the link was to a redirect. In general, you should not replace links to redirects with direct links unless the direct link is better in the context of the article. In this case the article referred to Stokes vectors, so the correct link was [[Stokes vectors]], even though this redirects to [[Stokes parameters]]. The redirect gets the reader where he or she needs to go, and preserves the option of having a separate article on Stokes vectors later (or a redirect to a specific section of the Stokes parameters article). Redirects are cheap, and make the encyclopedia better. Short circuiting them is not helpful, and is not recommended by WP guidelines.--[[User:Srleffler|Srleffler]] ([[User talk:Srleffler|talk]]) 02:47, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

==Survey==

Hi Hailey!

I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!

It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!

[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&formkey=dDR3a3JfaTd0aVBiMW1xd2phNXE2R3c6MQ#gid=0 Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!]

Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate.
I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you! [[User:SarahStierch|SarahStierch]] ([[User talk:SarahStierch|talk]]) 05:38, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these [[User:DPL bot|opt-out instructions]]. Thanks, [[User:DPL bot|DPL bot]] ([[User talk:DPL bot|talk]]) 10:35, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

[[File:Vienna Karlskirche frescos4b.jpg|100 px|right]]
This month marks the observation of [[Pentecost]], one of the most important feast of the Christian liturgical year. It is our hope here that all of you, regardless of your religious affiliation (if any), find that the holiday, and its accompanying activities, an enjoyable and beneficial experience. We also hope that this "Birthday of the Church" is one which gives you the same joy as the birthday of yourself or your loved ones.  

''Ichthus'' is the successor to the long running WikiProject Christianity newsletter, run under the WikiProject Christianity’s [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Outreach|Outreach]] department. As such, you will continue to see information about our latest featured and good articles, DYKs, as well as new members who have joined our project. You might also see links to Christianity related news from the mainstream media!  
 
With that, I wish you all happy reading!

[[user:John Carter|John Carter]], Asst. Editor

===Help Bring [[Wikipedia:Wikipe-tan|Wikipe-tan]] "into the fold"===
[[File:Wikipe-tan full length.svg|left|60px]]
As many of you may know, our unofficial mascot, dear Wikipe-tan, hasn't yet indicated any particular beliefs. However, yes, as we all know, ahem, ''some people'' might object to our beloved mascot running around in a [[Uniform fetishism#French maid uniform|French maid]] outfit. People do talk, you know. ;) If anyone might be able to develop an image of the dear lady in a image more, well, "Christian," I would like to see perhaps a vote for next month as to which, if any, image of the dear girl we might make our own unofficial mascot. Please post your images [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Outreach/April 2002/Wikipe-tan|here]].

===Christianity in other wikis===  
[[File:Wikimedia Foundation RGB logo with text.svg|left|40px]] As many of you might now, there are a large number of other Wikimedia Foundation projects, including WikiSource, Wiktionary, Wikibooks, WikiQuote, and others. I certainly believe that Wikibooks and Wikiquote might be among the more directly relevant sister projects. If any of you can think of any particular efforts in these other projects which you think would benefit from more input, please let us know here, so we can help spread the word around.

===Spotlight on the Outreach department===
[[File:Handshake (Workshop Cologne '06).jpeg|left|40px]]
''Ichthus'' will spotlight a different subproject or workgroup of WikiProject Christianity. This edition will spotlight on our vital [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Outreach|Outreach department]]. This comparatively small, but vital, project unit is dedicated to welcoming new editors to Wikipedia and the Christianity related content, and to providing information to the various project members, in forms like this newsletter. 

The scope of articles with which this group deals is truly enormous, and, given the wide variety of material with which we deal, we would very much welcome the input of more individuals, particularly individuals who are particularly knowledgeable of the less well-known and less frequently monitored articles related to Christianity. 

Speaking personally, I would be very, very gratified if we were to have this become a very, very large and active unit, with members from the broad spectrum of Christian beliefs, practices, and groups. The broader the spectrum and areas of expertise of members we have, the better we will be able to help manage the content. Please consider whether you believe you might be able to contribute in this vital area.

===I believe===
... in the statements contained in the [[Nicene Creed]]. I believe that the Bible is one of the two defining bases for belief. The other is the [[Sacred tradition]], which provides us with means of interpreting the Scriptures, as well as some teachings which have been handed on by God outside of the scriptures. I believe that the [[Magisterium]] has been empowered to fill this interpretative function. I believe that [[clerical celibacy]] is a rule that should generally be followed. I am a member of the [[Catholic Church]].

'''Contest of the month'''<br>
We currently have a remarkable lack of [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia-Books]]. Right now, [[:Category:Wikipedia books on Christianity]] contains only 12 books. We certainly could have at least one book on each major grouping within Christianity. One of the challenges for this month, then, is working to put together books on relevant topics. For this month, one contest is for editors to assemble the basic Wikipedia books for each of the main topics of the extant related projects. When finished, they should their creation of the books at the [[WT:X|main Christianity noticeboard]], and at the end of the month the project will award barnstars to those who have made a significant efforts in developing this underdeveloped content. 

Also this month, we are going to have have a challenge to create and improve some of our more important missing or low-quality articles.  As biographies are often a bit easier, this month we are choosing two biographies: [[Karl Behm]], which has yet to be started, and the currently Stub-class article [[Nerses IV the Gracious]]. A barnstar will be awarded to any editor who can get these articles up to [[WP:DYK|DYK quality level]] and ultimately selected for the DYK section of the main page.

[[File:WikiNews-Logo-en.svg|left|40px]] 
[[Wikinews]] is our sister site for developing news stories. Several events relating to Christianity, like the installation of bishops for instance, do not necessarily merit extensive coverage in wikipedia encyclopedic articles, but can and easily could be covered at greater length in a news article format. Given the number of significant news events that relate to religion, including claims of miracles, assignment of bishops and other religious leaders, church conferences, and other events, this site provides an excellent opportunity to provide in-depth coverage of current events at greater length than wikipedia.

'''Contest of the month'''<br>
We currently have a remarkable lack of [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia-Books]]. Right now, [[:Category:Wikipedia books on Christianity]] contains only 12 books. We certainly could have at least one book on each major grouping within Christianity. One of the challenges for this month, then, is working to put together books on relevant topics. For this month, one contest is for editors to assemble the basic Wikipedia books for each of the main topics of the extant related projects. When finished, they should their creation of the books at the [[WT:X|main Christianity noticeboard]], and at the end of the month the project will award barnstars to those who have made a significant efforts in developing this underdeveloped content. 

Also this month, we are going to have have a challenge to create and improve some of our more important missing or low-quality articles.  Last month's challenge articles were [[Karl Beth]] and [[Nerses IV the Gracious]]. Both articles are currently candidates for the DYK section of the [[Wikipedia:Main page|main page]]. This month's challenge articles are the Stub-class article [[James Hastings]] and the not yet started [[Rudolf Sohm]], A barnstar will be awarded to any editor who can get these articles up to [[WP:DYK|DYK quality level]] and ultimately selected for the DYK section of the main page. 


'''Calendar'''<br>
Thie coming month (mid-September through mid-October) includes feasts dedicated to the honor of the [[Martyrs of Korea]], [[Saint Matthew]], [[Vincent de Paul]], [[Michaelmas]], [[Saint Jerome]], [[Theresa of Lisieux]], the [[Feast of the Guardian Angels]], [[Francis of Assisi]], [[Our Lady of the Rosary]], and [[Teresa of Avila]].

'''Featured content and GA report'''<br>
Since the last report, [[Albertus Soegijapranata]], and  [[Reginald Heber]] were promoted to FA.

DYKs featured this past month include [[Church of Saint Benoit, Istanbul]], [[All Saints Church, Hollingbourne]], [[Neustädter Kirche, Hannover]], [[St Mary's Church, Kirkby Lonsdale]], [[Albert Ndongmo]], [[If We Are the Body]], [[List of places of worship in Tonbridge and Malling]], [[Kulubnarti church]], [[All Saints Church, Ulcombe]], [[Val-Saint-Lambert Abbey]], [[Igny Abbey]], [[Church of the Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel, Brăila]], [[Places of Worship Registration Act 1855]], [[Collegiate Church of San Gimignano]], and [[St Matthew's Church, Burnley]]. Our profoundest thanks and congratulations to all those involved!

'''Wikimedia Foundation report'''<br>  
[[File:Wikipedia-logo-simple.png|left|40px]] 
As some of you may have seen, the [[Simple English Wikipedia]] has been experiencing some difficulties lately. This particular entity could be of great value to several individuals who are trying to learn English. As some of you who do speak foreign languages know, one of the most easily available, and, in general, useful learning aids for people is a text they know already, which allows them to focus on the specific words of the new language. Various recorded readings and translations of the [[Bible]] are among the best examples of this. Any efforts to try to enhance this vital means of informing a large segment of our readership is more than welcome. People interested in helping develop it are encouraged to leave a note regarding their specific articles of interest at the [[WT:X|Christianity noticeboard]]. It would be wonderful if we could report some significant contributions to this sister site next month. And, of course, if we do have something to report, those involved would receive our greatest thanks.

[[File:John Calvin - best likeness.jpg|left|40px]] 
[[WP:Calvin|WikiProject Calvinism]] is one of our more important subprojects. It is specifically devoted to developing content relating to the Calvinist tradition, and the primary point for development of content relating to the [[Pilgrim (Plymouth Colony)|Pilgrims]], [[Presbyterians]], [[Reformed churches]], [[Congregational church]], [[Reformed Baptists]], and [[Low church]]. We definitely encourage everyone to do what they can to help this project develop the content relating to this extremely important Christian tradition. 


'''I believe'''<br>
... that human nature is insufficient for salvation, and the grace of God is required to do so. I believe that God has preordained who will and will not achieve salvation. I believe that Jesus's atonement was sufficient for the purposes for which it was done. I believe that God's grace is of such power that it can overcome any person's resistance. I believe that those whom God has chosen for salvation will, by the undeniable power of God, persevere in God's grace. I am a [[Calvinist]].

'''Spotlight'''<br>
[[File:Wikipe-tan in Santa Costume.png|left|40px]] 
[[WP:XMAS|WikiProject Holidays/Christmas task force]] is the group whose purpose is to help develop the content related to the Christmas season, including Advent, New Year's, and related holidays. As many of us know, in several parts of the world, including the United States, the Christmas season is not only the time of one of the greatest holidays of the Christian liturgical year, but it is also the "make or break" time for many retailers, whose profitability for the year often depends on their success in this time of the giving of sometimes significantly expensive gifts. In other parts of the world, the winter solstice period and sometimes specifically Christmas itself means something that might surprise many Christians, like the [[Christmas in Japan]], where Christmas is one of the times hotels receive the greatest number of, often unmarried, couples staying there for the night. The solstice season is also significant to several other religions. Many of these days are also legal holidays in several places. In Belarus, for instance, both the Western and Eastern Christmas commemorations are legal holidays. We would certainly welcome the members of this project to donate some of their time and talents in the upcoming months to improving this significant content.

== Introductions cat ==

Hi Hailey, I don't understand well about cats, I included the cat on Tri-chess [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tri-Chess&curid=36835331&diff=520621850&oldid=519491291] because someone had included a similar cat on one of my other article adds (and I prsumed they knew what they were doing). I can't readily find a definition of the "introductions" cat, and the content of that cat seems to be of really big scope. Can you teach me here so I can learn why it doesn't belong on game invention articles. (I'd like to make all my similar article adds consistent.) Thank u!

<center>[[File:Pisa Baptistry.jpg|200px]]<br>
This image of [[Baptistry (Pisa)|The Baptistry of Saint John in Pisa]] by [[:User:NotFromUtrecht]]<br> 
was recently promoted to Featured Image. Thank you and congratulations for the great image!</center>


'''Contest of the month'''<br>
As I imagine many of our editors will be editing at a greatly reduced level for the next few weeks, what with the Christmas and New Year's holidays coming, there is no specific content-related contest this month. The contest, if anything, is to make the most of the season, in whatever way, if any, you deem appropriate.  


'''Calendar'''<br>
This coming month (mid-December through mid-January) includes the [[Advent]] season, and one of the two greatest holidays of the Christian year, [[Christmas]]. Other major feasts in the next month include those of the [[Epiphany (holiday)|Feast of the Epiphany]], [[Baptism of the Lord]], [[Saint Stephen]], [[Thomas the Apostle]], [[Holy Innocents]], [[John the Evangelist]], [[Gregory of Nazianzus]], [[Basil the Great]], [[Saint Genevieve]], [[Elizabeth Ann Seton]], and [[Saint Sava]].

'''Featured content and GA report'''<br>
Since the last report, [[Anne Hutchinson]] nominated by [[User:Sarnold17]] was promoted to FA. [[Grade I listed churches in Lancashire]] by [[User:Peter I. Vardy]] was promoted to Featured List. The image in the ''Church of the Month'' and ''Christian art'' sections of this newsletter were promoted to Featured Picture status. ''[[Come to the Well]]'' by [[User:Toa Nidhiki05]] and others, and [[Dwight Christmas]] by [[User:Gen. Quon]] and others were promoted to GA level.  DYKs featured this past month include [[King's Chapel, Gibraltar]], by [[User:Prioryman]], [[Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception (Albany, New York)]] by [[User:Daniel Case]], [[Tingsted Church]] by [[User:Ipigott]] and [[User:Rosiestep]], [[St. Mary's Church (Albany, New York)]] by [[User:Daniel Case]], [[Stubbekøbing Church]] by [[User:Ipigott]] and [[User:Rosiestep]], [[Notre Dame Cathedral (Phnom Penh)]] by [[User:Bloom6132]], and [[St. James' Church, Cardington]] by [[User:Peter I. Vardy]]. Our profoundest thanks and congratulations to all those involved!

'''Spotlight'''<br>
[[File:Firstchristmascard.jpg|right|200px]] 
In the spirit of Christmas, the spotlight for the coming month might actually best be on those people closest to you. We know that a lot of our editors here are associated in some way or another with schools, and many if not most of them are going on rather extended breaks for the holidays. This can give some of us a chance to meet up with old friends, spend time with our families and those close to us, and, in a sense, "recharge" for the new year. So, for all of you who are in some way part of that group, we wish you the very best of holidays. We hope you all return to editing after the holidays with your spirits lifted and with your energies at peak level. There are some small matters in development here as well, and it is our hope that some of them will be ready come the next newsletter. But, until then, we wish you all the happiest and holiest (if appropriate) holidays.

'''Contest of the month'''<br>
No particular contest this month. I am however getting rather close to getting together a more or less complete set of articles relating to different areas of Christianity which can be found in recent reference sources on the broad topic of Christianity, and about various subtopics, which I hope to have finished in the next few weeks. I wonder what the rest of you might think of, maybe, making the contests of future months be basically directed at filling in the gaps of our existing coverage of topics, like those topics given significant coverage in specialized reference works which we don't yet have content on, and giving the thanks, and rewards, whatever they might be, to those who create and develop such content. I am starting a discussion at [[Wikipedia talk:Christianity noticeboard#Future contests]], and would very much welcome any input from interested parties in how to set it up, determine winners including how many winners, etc.

'''Spotlight'''<br>
[[File:Christ icon.jpg|left|100px]] 
The Spotlight this month turns to the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Syriac Christianity work group|the Syriac Christianity work group]]. The scope of this project includes the various traditions of [[Syriac Christianity]], including the [[Assyrian Church of the East]], [[Ancient Church of the East]], [[Church of the East]], [[Syriac Orthodox Church]], [[Chaldean Catholic Church]], [[Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church]], [[Melkite Greek Catholic Church]], [[Syriac Catholic Church]], [[Syro-Malankara Catholic Church]], and [[Saint Thomas Christians]]. One of these groups, the Assyrian Church of the East, is considered by scholars to have probably been, for several hundred years, the largest Christian grouping in the planet, with its numerous members in [[Central Asia]] and [[Eastern Asia]]. Numerous texts, traditions, and practices unique to these groups exist, including the [[Jesus Sutras]] and the belief of the Assyrian Church of the East that the bread they use in the preparation of their Eucharist uses the same basic yeast as that used in the bread of the [[Last Supper]] itself. Sadly, given the linguistic barriers to much of the content relative to these groups, and the comparative lack of notoriety they have in the Western world, much of this content does receive less attenion, and thus less development, than much other content. There is a large amount of extremely valuable historical material here still waiting to be adequately developed by editors with an interest in the topic, and I personally very much hope that we can draw more attention to these topics, and the content related to them.

'''Calendar'''<br>
This coming month (mid-January through mid-February) includes [[Presentation of Jesus at the Temple|The Presentation of Christ in the Temple or Candlemas]] and the [[Conversion of Paul the Apostle|Conversion of Paul]].

'''From the Editor'''<br>

We apologise for the hiatus in the publication of this newsletter due to unforseen circumstances leading to the wikibreak of [[User:John Carter|John Carter]], and so [[User:Gilderien|I]] have taken over as acting editor, and have taken this opportunity to move the publication date to the start of each month as planned, to better reflect on the previous month and look ahead to the next. This issue covers the period of time from mid-January to the end of March.

Since the last issue we have seen the resignation of [[Pope Benedict XVI]] and the election of [[Pope Francis]]. This has received much coverage both in the world media and on Wikipedia. While there is still much work to do, several quality articles have been written and the editors involved are thanked for their efforts.


This month we look ahead to Easter and the celebration of God's love for mankind through the crucifixion and resurrection of his Son Jesus Christ. With that, I wish you all happy reading!

'''Spotlight'''<br>
[[File:Christ icon.jpg|left|100px]] 
The Spotlight this month turns to the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Jesus work group|the Jesus work group]]. The scope of this project includes the life and teachings of the central figure of Christianity, [[Jesus Christ]] and aims to write about them in a non-denominational encylopædic style. Top-priority articles include [[Jesus]], [[Christ]], [[Resurrection of Jesus]], and [[Holy Grail]], whereas High-priority articles include [[Aramaic Language]], a former FA, as well as [[Sermon on the Mount]], [[Lamb of God]], and [[Passion (Christianity)]]. The workgroup has also published two books, covering [[Book:Christ's Final Days |Christ's final days]] and the [[Book:Parables of Jesus|Parables of Jesus]]. The workgroup has two GAs, [[Nativity scene]], and [[Jesus in Islam]], but unfortunately the flagship article, [[Jesus]] was delisted in 2009. It is also responsible for three [[WP:1.0]] articles, and the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2013-02-25/WikiProject_report|WikiWork]] of the project is 4.56, which indicates the "average" article is between Start and C class.

'''From the Editor'''<br>
[[File:StJohnsAshfield StainedGlass GoodShepherd-frame crop.jpg|right|150px]]
This month we hear the news that the Bible is to be made into a film after outstanding success of a biblical miniseries on the History Channel, and we have seen the release of Iraqi Pastor Ali Hamzah from his confinement in Iraq.

After last month's spotlight on the [[Jesus]] work group, the flagship article, [[Jesus]], was nominated for Good Article status after much work from [[User:FutureTrillionaire|FutureTrillionaire]] and [[User:History2007|History2007]], and provisionally passed by the reviewer, although they have requested a second opinion. Our many thanks for the hard work that has gone into restoring this article to a quality piece of work.

This month the second largest denomination of Christianity, the [[Eastern Orthodox Church]], celebrates Easter and the death and resurrection of the Son of God Jesus Christ.

P.S. Please [{{fullurl:Wikipedia talk:Christianity noticeboard|action=watch}} click here] to add the new [[WT:X|Christianity noticeboard]] to your watchlist to follow the latest discussions relevant to WikiProject Christianity and subprojects.

[[Wells Cathedral]] was this month promoted to GA status. Rodw has appealed for any help project members can give to improve this article for a FA nomination.


'''Contest of the month'''<br>
No particular contest this month. I am however getting rather close to getting together a more or less complete set of articles relating to different areas of Christianity which can be found in recent reference sources on the broad topic of Christianity, and about various subtopics, which I hope to have finished in the next few weeks. I wonder what the rest of you might think of, maybe, making the contests of future months be basically directed at filling in the gaps of our existing coverage of topics, like those topics given significant coverage in specialized reference works which we don't yet have content on, and giving the thanks, and rewards, whatever they might be, to those who create and develop such content.

SPOTLIGHT

This month, we turn our attention to the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Encyclopedic articles|Encyclopedic articles]] sub-group, which aims to provide  "a collection point for lists of articles contained in other reference sources relating to Christianity, which could serve as a basis for developing our own content". Created by John Carter, it is primarily a list of links, red or otherwise, for subjects which have an article in the reference works listed therein. This serves as a very useful list if any project members are "stuck for what to do" and there remains lots of potential for articles developed from this list.

'''From the Editor'''<br>
[[File:ბუმბული.png|left|50px]]Since its formation in 2006, WikiProject Christianity has come a long way. A significant number of new articles have appeared on a wide range of topics, and the quality of some key articles has seen dramatic improvement. Yet, by the very nature of the open, [[crowd-sourced]] development environment in which we operate, as the number of pages in the project has increased at times our attention has been naturally diluted. We should of course strive for quality everywhere, but we should remember that this newsletter is called [[Ichthys|Ichthus]].

Starting this month we will start a "Focus on" series, where we will try to "bring Jesus back" and focus on him. For five consecutive issues we will focus on one aspect of the study of Jesus. The goal of this series is to inform our members of what the project contains and highlight those articles which have reached quality and stability. 

From this month until November we will focus on the historical Jesus, a topic which has been the subject of much discussion on article talk pages, as well as the general media. This is an important topic, and we have a good set of well referenced articles on that now. Then, starting in December we will focus on Christ, and the spiritual and theological elements that the title entails. Following that the review of the life and ministry of Jesus in the New Testament, his miracles, and parables will take place. And each month the "Bookshelf" will mention a book that fits the theme of the month.

We hope you will enjoy this journey as we present a new aspect of Jesus each month. And given that as the number of project pages increases, the ratio of those watching the pages declines, we hope that more of you will watch some of these central pages that help define this project.

<BIG>H</BIG>ISTORICAL <BIG>J</BIG>ESUS
{{clear|left}}
Did Jesus exist? Did he walk the streets of Jerusalem? The '''[[Historicity of Jesus]]''' article answers these questions with a firm affirmative. Historicity does not discuss if Jesus walked on water, but if he walked at all. The issue was the subject of scholarly debate before the end of last century, but the academic debate is almost over now. As the article discusses, virtually all academic opposition to the existence of Jesus has evaporated away now and scholars see it as a concluded issue. The discussion is now just among mostly self-published non-academics. 

In 2011 [[John Dickson (author)|John Dickson]] tweeted that if anyone finds a professor of history who denies that Jesus lived,[http://www.abc.net.au/religion/articles/2012/12/24/3660194.htm he would eat a page] of his Bible (Matthew 1 he said). Dickson's Bible is still safe. 

The article discusses the ancient sources that relate to Jesus and how they fit together to establish that he existed. The evidence for Jesus is not just based on the Christian gospels, but by inter-relating them with non-Christian sources, and the fact that they all "fit together". Moreover, the existence of Jesus is not supported just by Christian scholars and in recent years the detailed knowledge of Jewish scholars and their discoveries (e.g. [[Shlomo Pines]]' discovery of the [[Josephus on Jesus|Syriac Josephus]]) has proven highly beneficial. We encourage you to read and follow the article, for the existence of Jesus is central to the existence of Christianity.

Just a few years after its publication, [[Robert Van Voorst|Van Voorst]]'s book has become the standard comprehensive text for the discussion of ancient sources that relate to Jesus and his historicity.

'''From the Editor'''<br>
[[File:ბუმბული.png|left|50px]] Welcome to the July 2013 issue of Ichthus. We focus on the chronology of Jesus, as well as looking back at the project content improved over the last month.

WP:X has gained another Featured Article, [[Gospel of the Ebionites]], by [[User:Ignocrates|Ignocrates]]. The Gospel of the Ebionites is the name scholars give to an apocryphal gospel that supposedly belonged to a sect known as the Ebionites. It consists of seven short quotations discovered in a heresiology known as the Panarion, written by Epiphanius of Salamis, and its original title remains unknown. The text is a gospel harmony composed in Greek, and is believed to have been written during the middle of the 2nd century.

[[St Mihangel's Church, Llanfihangel yn Nhowyn]] was promoted to Good Article status, as was two other welsh churches, [[St Enghenedl's Church, Llanynghenedl]], and [[St Peter's Church, Llanbedrgoch]].

The main page also featured several DYK hooks for articles in our project, namely [[Bob Fu]], [[List of places of worship in Tandridge (district)]], [[Catholic Press]], [[Garendon Abbey]], [[St. John's Episcopal Church (Jersey City, New Jersey)]], [[Pargev Martirosyan]], [[Praskvica Monastery]], [[Heather Preceptory]], [[St. Augustin, Coburg]], [[Longleat Priory]], [[St Mihangel's Church, Llanfihangel yn Nhowyn]], [[St Enghenedl's Church, Llanynghenedl]], [[Christianization of Moravia]], [[Christianization of Bohemia]], [[Repton Abbey]], [[St Peter's Church, Llanbedrgoch]], [[Medingen Abbey]], [[Elmhurst Christian Reformed Church]], [[St. James on-the-Lines]], and [[Leopold Karl von Kollonitsch]].

<BIG>H</BIG>ISTORICAL <BIG>J</BIG>ESUS
{{clear|left}}
When did Jesus live? When did he die? How do we know? We do, in fact, have excellent information about the time intervals for the life and death of Jesus. As in other people who lived and died in the first century, this gives an approximate date range, but still, give or take 3-4 years and we have pretty good estimates confirmed by a number of really diverse sources, ranging from inscriptions in [[Delphi]] to Roman and Jewish sources. The '''[[Chronology of Jesus]]''' article discusses how a wide variety of Christian, Jewish and Roman sources are used to establish the time-frame for the life and death of Jesus.

And all of his data fits together. For instance, the chronology of Paul had been discussed based on the [[Book of Acts]] long ago, then the [[Delphi Inscription]] is found in the 20th century in the [[Temple of Apollo]]. And guess what.. it confirms it and totally dates his trial in [[Corinth]], which helps reaffirm the date of the crucifixion of Jesus. The same date range is independently estimated from the writings of [[Josephus on Jesus|Josephus on the Baptist]]'s death. And it fits [[Isaac Newton]]'s astronomical models for the crucifixion date as well as the independent lunar calculations of [[Colin Humphreys|Humphreys]]. As that article shows, all these dates just fit together.

'''From the Editor'''<br>
[[File:ბუმბული.png|left|50px]]

Welcome to the August 2013 issue of the WikiProject Christianity newsletter. We focus on the historical Jesus and reflect on the last month.

The project has another featured picture, [[:File:The_Ruins_of_Holyrood_Chapel_(Louis_Daguerre),_1824_(Google_Art_Project).jpg|The ruins of Holyrood Chapel]], a digitisation of an oil-on-canvas painting. Our top-importance article, [[Jesus]], has been nominated for Featured Article status, the discussion can be seen [[Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Jesus/archive3|here]]; [[Knights of Colombus]] has also been nominated as a FAC.

[[Ecgbert (bishop)]] and [[Church architecture in Scotland]] have both this month achieved [[WP:GA|Good Article]] status.

Our project had several of its articles featured in the main page DYK section, including [[Hinckley Priory]], [[Little Chapel]], [[St Peter's Church, Ropsley]], [[Chip Ingram]],  [[St John the Evangelist's Church, Corby Glen]], [[Great George Street Congregational Church]], [[St Mary's Church, Walton-on-the-Hill]] and [[Bunge church]].

Our thanks go to all of those who have worked to achieve these article milestones.

{{clear|left}}
What was Jesus like? What did he preach? Did he claim to be the Messiah? Did he predict an apocalypse? What can we know about him outside a religious context? The '''[[Historical Jesus]]''' article discusses what can be known about Jesus with various degrees of probability. While scholars agree on the over all flow and outline of Jesus' life (his [[Baptism of Jesus|baptism by John]], debated Jewish authorities, healings, and [[Crucifixion of Jesus|his crucifixion]] by Pilate) they have built various and diverging portraits of the rest of his life. These range from minimalist portraits that accept very little of the gospel accounts to maximalists who accept most of the accounts as historical.

The portraits of Jesus have at times been unwitting reflections of the researchers themselves, and [[John Dominic Crossan|Crossan]] once quipped that some authors "do autobiography and call it biography". However, the study of historical Jesus has made one thing clear: there is so much to learn about Jesus that the more one looks, the more there is to discover.

A tag has been placed on [[:Tito Puentes]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about [[Wikipedia:The answer to life, the universe, and everything|what is generally accepted as notable]]. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Tito Puentes|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request [[WP:RFUD|here]]. <!-- Template:Db-notability-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:Amortias|Amortias]] ([[User talk:Amortias|T]])([[Special:Contributions/Amortias|C]]) 00:26, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

Hello, Hailey C. Shannon. It has been over six months since you last edited your [[WP:AFC]] draft article submission, entitled "[[Draft:Groupie (book)|Groupie]]". 

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply {{edit|Draft:Groupie (book)|edit the submission}} and remove the {{tlc|db-afc}} or {{tlc|db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia [[WP:mainspace|mainspace]].

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at [[WP:REFUND/G13]], ''or'' 2) copy this code: <code><nowiki>{{subst:Refund/G13|</nowiki>Draft:Groupie (book)<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>, paste it in the edit box at <span class="plainlinks">[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_undeletion&action=edit&section=new this link]</span>, and click "Save page".

A tag has been placed on [[:Henry Christian Haarstick]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=23125. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators '''will be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]].

{{TFAIMAGE|StJohnsAshfield StainedGlass GoodShepherd-frame crop.jpg|Jesus of Nazareth}}
'''[[Jesus]]''' (7–2 BC to 30–33 AD) is the central figure of [[Christianity]], whom the teachings of most Christian denominations hold to be the [[Son of God]] and the awaited [[Messiah]] of the [[Old Testament]]. Virtually all modern scholars of antiquity agree that a [[historical Jesus]] existed, although there is little agreement on the reliability of the [[gospel|gospel narratives]] and how closely the biblical Jesus reflects the historical Jesus. Most scholars agree that Jesus was a Jewish preacher from Galilee, was baptized by [[John the Baptist]], and was crucified in Jerusalem on the orders of the Roman prefect, [[Pontius Pilate]]. Christians generally believe that Jesus was conceived by the [[Holy Spirit]], [[Virgin birth of Jesus|born of a virgin]], performed [[Miracles of Jesus|miracles]], founded the Church, [[Crucifixion of Jesus|died by crucifixion]] as a sacrifice to achieve [[Atonement in Christianity|atonement]], [[Resurrection of Jesus|rose from the dead]], and [[Ascension of Jesus|ascended]] into heaven, from which [[Second Coming|he will return]]. The great majority of Christians worship Jesus as the incarnation of God the Son, the second of three Persons of a [[Divine Trinity]]. A few Christian groups reject Trinitarianism, wholly or partly, as non-scriptural. [[Jesus in Islam|In Islam]], Jesus is considered one of God's important prophets and the Messiah. {{TFAFULL|Jesus}}

<small>By {{User link|Lionelt}}</small>

Last month's auspicious relaunch of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Outreach/April 2018|our newsletter]] precipitated something of an uproar in the Wikipedia community. What started as a localized edit war over censorship spilled over onto the Administrator's Noticeboard finally ending up at Wikipedia's supreme judicial body ArbCom. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee/Noticeboard&oldid=837089062#Motion:_Misuse_of_Administrator_Tools Their ruling] resulted in the admonishment of administrator {{u|Future Perfect at Sunrise}} for his involvement in the dispute. The story [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2018-04-26/Arbitration_report|was reported]] by Wikipedia's venerable flagship newspaper ''The Signpost''.

The question of whether to delete all portals--including the 27 Christianity-related portals--was put to the Wikipedia community. Approximately 400 editors have participated in the [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/RfC:_Ending_the_system_of_portals|protracted discussion]]. Going by !votes, Oppose deletion has a distinct majority. The original [[Portal:Christianity|Christianity Portal]] was created on November 5, 2005 by {{User link|Brisvegas}} and the following year he successfully nominated the portal for Featured Portal. {{u|The Transhumanist}} has revived [[WP:WikiProject Portals|WikiProject Portals]] with hopes of revitalizing Wikipedia's system of 1,515 portals.

'''[[Operation Auca]]''' was an attempt by five [[Evangelicalism|Evangelical]] [[Christianity|Christian]] [[missionaries]] from the [[United States]] to make contact with the [[Huaorani]] people of the [[Amazon Rainforest|rainforest]] of [[Ecuador]]. The Huaorani, also known as the Aucas, were an isolated tribe known for their violence, both against their own people and outsiders who entered their territory. With the intention of being the first [[Protestantism|Protestants]] to evangelize the Huaorani, the missionaries began making regular flights over Huaorani settlements in September 1955, dropping gifts. After several months of exchanging gifts, on [[January 2]], [[1956]], the missionaries established a camp at "Palm Beach", a [[Bar (landform)|sandbar]] along the [[Curaray River]], a few miles from Huaorani settlements.  Their efforts culminated on [[January 8]], [[1956]], when all five&mdash;[[Jim Elliot]], [[Nate Saint]], Ed McCully, Peter Fleming, and [[Roger Youderian]]&mdash;were attacked and [[spear]]ed by a group of Huaorani warriors.  The news of their deaths was broadcast around the world, and [[Life (magazine)|''Life'' magazine]] covered the event with a photo essay. The deaths of the men galvanized the missionary effort in the United States, sparking an outpouring of funding for evangelization efforts around the world. Their work is still frequently remembered in evangelical publications, and in 2006, was the subject of the film production ''[[End of the Spear]]''. ('''[[Operation Auca|more...]]''')

This depiction departs significantly from the historical record of how Mortara was taken—no clergy were present, for example.}}</div>
The '''[[Mortara case]]''' was a controversy precipitated by the [[Papal States]]' seizure of Edgardo Mortara, a six-year-old Jewish child, from his family in [[Bologna|Bologna, Italy]], in 1858. The city's [[inquisitor]], Father Pier Feletti, heard from a servant that she had administered [[emergency baptism]] to the boy when he fell sick as an infant, and the [[Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith| Supreme Sacred Congregation of the Roman and Universal Inquisition]] held that this made the child irrevocably a Catholic. Because the Papal States had forbidden the raising of Christians by members of other faiths, it was ordered that he be taken from his family and brought up by the Church. After visits from the child's father, international protests mounted, but [[Pope Pius IX]] would not be moved. The boy grew up as a Catholic with the Pope as a substitute father, trained for the priesthood in Rome until 1870, and was [[Ordination|ordained]] in France three years later. In 1870 the [[Kingdom of Italy]] captured Rome during the [[Italian unification|unification of Italy]], ending the pontifical state; opposition across Italy, Europe and the United States over Mortara's treatment may have contributed to its downfall. {{TFAFULL|Mortara case}}

'''[[List of dates predicted for apocalyptic events]]'''. Predictions of [[apocalypse|apocalyptic events]] that would result in the extinction of humanity, a collapse of civilization, or the destruction of the planet have been made since at least the beginning of the [[Christian Era]]. Most predictions are related to [[Abrahamic religions]], often standing for or similar to the [[eschatological]] events described in their scriptures. Christian predictions typically refer to events like the [[Rapture]], [[Great Tribulation]], [[Last Judgment]], and the [[Second Coming of Christ]].

Polls conducted in 2012 across 20 countries found over 14% of people believe the world will end in their lifetime, with percentages raging from 6% of people in France to 22% in the US and Turkey. In the UK in 2015, the general public believed the likeliest cause would be [[nuclear war]], while experts thought it would be [[Existential risk from artificial general intelligence|artificial intelligence]]. Between one and three percent of people from both countries thought the apocalypse would be caused by [[zombies]] or [[alien invasion]]. ([[List_of_dates_predicted_for_apocalyptic_events|more...]])

The cathedral is located on the south side of the River Lee, on ground that has been a place of worship since the 7th century, and is dedicated to [[Finbarr of Cork]], patron saint of the city. It was once in the Diocese of Cork; it is now one of the three cathedrals in the [[Church of Ireland]] Diocese of Cork, Cloyne and Ross, in the ecclesiastical province of [[Dublin]]. Christian use of the site dates back to a 7th-century AD monastery, which according to legend was founded by Finbarr of Cork. The entrances contain the figures of over a dozen biblical figures, capped by a tympanum showing a Resurrection scene.

A suicide attack on [[July 11]]th claimed by [[Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant|Islamic State (IS)]] near a church in the  [[Syria|Syrian]] city of [[Qamishli]] shows that Christians remain a major target of the terror group. The Top 6 [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Christianity/Popular_pages|most popular articles about People]] in [[WP:X|WikiProject Christianity]] were:
<ol style="margin-left: -2.0em;">
# [[Henry VIII of England]] – [[King of England]], He was an accomplished musician, author, and poet; his known piece of music is "[[Pastime with Good Company]]". He is often reputed to have written "[[Greensleeves]]" but probably did not. He had [[Wives of King Henry VIII|six marriages]].

In 1669, she translated the ''Colloquy of Christ'' by [[Carthusian]] monk [[Lanspergius]] from Spanish into Italian.

'''''When God Writes Your Love Story: The Ultimate Approach to Guy/Girl Relationships''''' is a 1999 book by [[Eric Ludy|Eric]] and [[Leslie Ludy]], an American married couple. After becoming a bestseller on the Christian book market, the book was republished in 2004 and then revised and expanded in 2009. It tells the story of the authors' first meeting, [[courtship]], and marriage. The authors advise [[Single person|single people]] not to be [[Physical intimacy|physically]] or [[Emotional intimacy|emotionally intimate]] with others, but to wait for the spouse that [[Will of God|God has planned]] for them. 

The book is divided into five sections and sixteen chapters. Each chapter is written from the perspective of one of the two authors; nine are by Eric, while Leslie wrote seven, as well as the introduction. The Ludys argue that one's love life should be both guided by and subordinate to one's [[Personal god#Christianity|relationship with God]]. Leslie writes that God offers new beginnings to formerly [[Chastity|unchaste]] or [[Sexual abuse|sexually abused]] individuals.

[[File:Sretenie.jpg|Сретение Господне ("The Meeting of the Lord"), a depiction of Simeon recognising Jesus at the Temple, from a fifteenth-century Novgorodskye School Russian icon.|right|205px]]
'''''A Song for Simeon''''', is a 37-line poem written in 1928 by American-English poet [[T.&nbsp;S. Eliot]] (1888–1965). It is [[T. S. Eliot's Ariel poems|one of five poems]] that Eliot contributed to the ''[[Ariel poems (Faber)|Ariel poems]]'' series of 38 pamphlets by several authors published by [[Faber and Faber|Faber and Gwyer]]. "A Song for Simeon" was the sixteenth in the series and included an illustration by [[avant garde]] artist [[Edward McKnight Kauffer]]. The poem's narrative echoes the text of the {{lang|la|[[Nunc dimittis]]|italic=no}}, a liturgical prayer for [[Compline]] from the Gospel passage. Eliot introduces literary allusions to earlier writers [[Lancelot Andrewes]], [[Dante Alighieri]] and [[St. John of the Cross]]. Critics have debated whether Eliot's depiction of Simeon is a negative portrayal of a Jewish figure and evidence of [[anti-Semitism]] on Eliot's part.

==[[Wikipedia:BLPPROD|Proposed deletion]] of [[Howard Rogers]]==
[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|alt=Notice|48px|]]

The article [[Howard Rogers]] has been [[WP:BLPPROD|proposed for deletion]] because it appears to have no references. Under [[Wikipedia:BLPPROD#Objecting|Wikipedia policy]], this '''[[WP:BLP|biography of a living person]]''' will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a [[WP:V#Sources|reliable source]] that directly supports material in the article. 

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see [[Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners|Referencing for beginners]], or ask at the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|help desk]]. Once you have provided at least one [[WP:V#Sources|reliable source]], you may remove the {{tl|prod blp/dated}} tag. '''Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.''' If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can {{#ifexist:Howard Rogers|request that it be undeleted|[[Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion|request that it be undeleted]]}} when you are ready to add one.<!-- Template:ProdwarningBLP --> [[User_talk:Black Kite|Black Kite (talk)]] 11:37, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|alt=Notice|48px|]]

The article [[:Honkytonk Sue]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>'''The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing [[Wikipedia:General notability guideline]] and the more detailed [[Wikipedia:Notability (fiction)]] requirement. [[WP:BEFORE]] did not reveal any significant English-language coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and [[WP:ECHO|ping me back]] through [[WP:ECHO]] or by leaving a note at [[User talk:Piotrus]]. Thank you.'''</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:Honkytonk Sue|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> <sub style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">[[User:Piotrus|Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus]]&#124;[[User talk:Piotrus|<span style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;"> reply here</span>]]</sub> 06:36, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
