What's New?

The Assessment Department is new. Please help to assess via quality and importance Saskatchewan articles by using the parent Canada wikiproject template {{WikiProject Canada |class= |importance= | sk=yes }} along with the Assessment guidelines.

See also wikiproject template for other work groups with their wikiprojects as well as provinces which can be added to the Canadian template

The new template and assessment table worklist is produced periodically and was created by Arctic Gnome. Thank you very much! Please take a moment to send an award or other recognition

New Template Saskatchewan

  • AT Bot requests, another very kind user has also offered to help with the transition process (Thank you also to Ρх₥α )

The request conglomerated together the following tasks to help show the quantity / quality of Saskatchewan related articles:

  1. tag all articles in Category:Saskatchewan and all of its subcategories with {{WikiProject Canada |sk = | class=| importance=}} and if {{WikiProject Canada | class=| importance=}} already exists, then can just |sk=yes be added to the Canada template?
  2. all articles which have a Saskatchewan related stub Saskatchewan-politician-stub / Saskatchewan-stub / Saskatchewan-geo-stub to be tagged in their talk pages for wikiproject Saskatchewan and be classified as stub as such: {{WikiProject Canada |sk =yes | class=stub| importance=}}
  3. add GA or FA to to the class parameter of {{WikiProject Canada}} articles if any other template has such a parameter value on the talk page.
  4. add stub to the class parameter if a stub tag is present on the article page.
  5. Replace the old tag {{Saskatchewanproject}} with the new parent wikiproject tag: {{WikiProject Canada |sk =yes | class=| importance=}} and if {{WikiProject Canada | class=| importance=}} already exists, then can just |sk=yes be added to the Canada template?
  6. add to the class area FL for any Featured-class lists articles if any other template has such a parameter value on the talk page.
  7. add to the class area List if the Saskatchewan related item in category:Saskatchewan articles if any other template has such a parameter value on the talk page.

Watch Arctic Gnome's assessment table worklist for progression undertaken by Ρх₥α. It is a very exciting time. Please take a moment to send an award or other recognition

Progress Report

Unassessed Saskatchewan Articles See this category: Unassessed Saskatchewan articles which bear the old template, and also this page Unassessed SK Articles

Want to add a new article/image to Portal Saskatchewan? Help Page!

What's New?:Portal:Saskatchewan has a new section! This new section gives access to complete instructions on adding articles and images directly into the portal - step by step. The Saskatchewan Portal was created via instructions in creating a box portal. Clicking the edit button on the main Saskatchewan Portal page does not help at all to add to the various sections as is usually the case with creation of wikipedia articles. The instruction page give immediate access to the transcluded pages which need to be accessed to change additions to the Saskatchewan Portal!

  • Please feel free to sign up as a Spotlight administrator and nominate more excellent and notable Saskatchewan editors on Wikipedia who deserve attention, and honour. For every wikipedia user who is mentioned in the spotlight department, they will receive a Wikipedia Saskatchewan Ribbon on their user pages for excellent service! Every newsletter will bring an update to the Spotlight Department, so please keep tuned for other excellent contributors.

Willowgrove, Saskatoon

Hello there. Thanks for your note about this subdivision. Your article looks awewsome, seems to include more current information about this new neighbourhood, and mine was more about the plans and projection, so this new one is better. Go ahead with the changeover, it is good to have the info online! Great pic also BTW. It will be interesting to see how this village square concept works, Regina is trying a few new neighborhoods like this as well. Kind Regards SriMesh | talk 03:05, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Tagged articles

  • Improve articles of Saskatchewan quality which have been tagged. Some of these are listed [[2]] and have been compiled with AWB.

Outreach

Highway Picture Template

  • Just as there is only one image needed for upload for Saskatchewan locator maps, and then various towns can be updated upon this image. So, too there should be a highway picture template, so that the various numbered highways 1, 33, 34, 58, 913, 914, etc can all have their own image without needing to create a bizzilion numbered images online.

2004 Election

  • Our 2004 Saskatchewan election has resulted in an amazing number of politician biographies coming online! This was an awesome achievement, and something to be proud of!
  • Qyd (talk · contribs) and Arctic.gnome (talk · contribs) are editors of a wide variety of Canadian related articles, and of note as of this date is the enormous amount of work they have undertaken to help amalgamate all the various provincial wikiprojects and Canadian sub projects into one umbrella assessment department. This unique assessment department means that Saskatchewan related articles can be assessed for their own provincial merit, and also belong to the Canadian wikiproject as well. It also means that editors from both Canada wikiproject and Saskatchewan wikiproject can unite in their efforts to provide banners and ratings to articles. This will result in a huge improvement in quality on wikipedia, resulting in Saskatchewan's spotlight award for Qyd (talk · contribs). January 2008 newsletter Please pop into the Spotlight Department and read all the brief introductory Wikipedia Saskatchewan bio. Congratulations are sent out to Qyd (talk · contribs)] and Arctic.gnome (talk · contribs) at this time.

Welcome and Happy New Year!:

  • Just as panic begins to settle in as to what in the world the next newsletter should mention, new areas of development and growth come about. The coming year of 2008 should provide not only more Saskatchewan articles, but also more articles with higher ratings with the assistance of more editors, and a new assessment department umbrella. The highways and roads project has given a good base for development, and to strengthen the presence and notability of roads and highways and effort is being called upon to help these articles improve, now that they too are under the assessment umbrella.

Saskatchewan Roads and Highways

Saskatchewan Roads and Highways The WikiProject Canada Roads is undergoing an overhaul. It is aiming to produce some Good articles and Featured articles of highway content pertaining to Canada, and for the Saskatchewan Roads and Highways for Saskatchewan highways. As Saskatchewan is still a work in progress this is a challenging endeavour for as the guidelines are followed as laid out at either Highway wikiproject, they become red link farms because wikilinked articles have not been developed regarding the communities, provincial and regional parks and rural municipalities which the highways meander through. Please keep apprised of the progress, and if any Saskatchewan articles rise above stub we will list it on the main page.

There is also discussion started about assessment and navigation boxes on the talk page. Please peek in to add any comments you may have.

If you want to add your name as a particpant to the Canada Roads wikiproject [here]. To join the Saskatchewan Roads wikiproject sign on the main here please.

Recently articles Saskatchewan Highway 1, 33, 34, 58, 913, 914 have been improved, but they need more help so they can become articles nominated as Good articles. Please help out if you are able, even to create community and rural municipality articles for these Highway articles would be an enormous help.

To keep updated on proposals, deletion debates, etc. add {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada Roads/News}} or {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada Roads/News|right}} to your userpage to produce the box of notices in the above right. See this page for new areas of discussion: talk page WP SK roads

Image source problem with Image:Wildwood School.jpg

 
Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Wildwood School.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. 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 specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 17:38, 28 May 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:38, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Taj Unesco Edit

Hi: Glad you're taking an interest in Taj Mahal. Just to let you know: There's consensus from numerous discussions with many editors that the UNESCO infobox doesn't belong on the Taj Mahal main page. See the "Infobox" item on the discussion page with its link to the archive. Somebody, maybe me, will likely revert this change. If you feel the subject needs a new review, please discuss on the talk page.--nemonoman (talk) 17:02, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks DRM. would you be interested in looking at this innovation or expressing your opinion here? The idea is to pick away through the contentious issues of infoboxes on more arty articles, where they are sometimes considered less appropriate then chemical elements, taxonomy etc. with a useful compromise for the reader. --Joopercoopers (talk) 22:14, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Edit of Eden Project page

Thank you for your message about my contributions to the Eden Project page. I work at Eden, so I know a thing or two about it. The page as I discovered it had TeamKernow's footprints all over it. He is a ranting obsessive famous in these parts (Cornwall) for his loathing of Eden. Any contribution he might make/have made has no place in Wikipedia. You might want to check out (1) http://www.eden-project-insight.tk/ (2)http://www.cornwall24.co.uk/module-pnForum-viewtopic-topic-4103.htm

Agreed, some of my contributions were a touch mischievous, so I'm glad you've left some of them in at least. For the record, it is absolutely untrue that Eden rock concerts cause gridlock in the area. Takes a while to get out afterwards, but I imagine you might have said the same thing in spades of Woodstock!

If I spot any further contributions from TeamKernow I'll jump on them unless he's playing by the rules, and it'll be up to you to sort out the rights and wrongs. Oh, and if you've never been to Eden you should give it a whirl! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rocheman (talkcontribs) 16:21, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
