When is a Wikipedia project a WikiProject?

The term "WikiProject" is used for projects created for the purpose of managing a specific family of information within Wikipedia. For example, Wikipedia:WikiProject Economics organises articles related to Economics, including economic terms, theories, and economists.

A WikiProject is a resource to help coordinate and organize article writing. Its attached talk page is a convenient forum for those interested in a particular project. WikiProjects can also have associated Portals.

Some projects, like the Tip of the day project, coordinate internal Wikipedia processes rather than article content directly (though not all of these use the term "WikiProject").

Adoption[edit]

Hello, Cassiopeia,

I hope this message finds you well.

I currently have two adoptees and since I am busy, I was wondering if I could transfer one to you. You are more experienced than me so I think you would be a good fit. Anyway, if you are fine with it, please let me know. If you reply here, please ping me. Thanks --- thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 00:59, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

TheTechie Happy to help. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 03:36, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikidata weekly summary #626[edit]

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
This is the Wikidata summary of the week before 2024-05-06.
Translations are available.

Tool of the week

  • Wikidata periodic table - Tool by User:Ricordisamoa, to browse all chemical elements available on Wikidata, with atomic number, chemical symbol, and localized label. It also includes two charts of the nuclides, with links to every isotope in Wikidata, colored by half-life or decay mode.

Other Noteworthy Stuff

  • A new UI mode is available for the online validator for EntitySchemas. It represents validation reports as a table rather than a very long string, and replaces most links with hyperlinks with some of the text behind them; making them easier to read. Currently being tested at https://shex-validator.toolforge.org/packages/shex-webapp/doc/shex-simple-improved.html, we are looking for participants to evaluate this tool. Some experience with editing Wikidata is appreciated, but no experience working with Schemas is required. If you are interested, you can sign up here. We hope to begin interviews around May 13.

Weekly Tasks

ESPN[edit]

If you're making the argument that ESPN cant be used for UFC fighters, we're going to have a TON of references to remove. Theres five on that Paulo Costa article alone. And for that matter, UFC.com wouldnt be considered independent either. Nswix (talk) 02:35, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nswix UFC is not an independent nor reliable source. We use UFC only when there is no other source can be used for info such as back then reach and stand for the fighter (now we can obtain almost all current UFC fighters' stand and reach from Tapology). We use UFC ranking for fighter as source and extremely limited fighter (direct info) of fighter bjj belt or other things. If we can find other sources to sub UFC source, pls do and highly encourage. ESPN is in contract with UFC and heavyly connected to each other for such make ESPN not independent for UFC and UFC fighter related pages. We dont use ESPN as sources and if the info can be found in ESPN, it always can be found in other MMA sites. (Note: ESPN used to buy content from Sherdog as back then they dont have they own reporters for MMA content and use Sherdog database until not long ago.) We can use extremely sparingly primary source when it is directly of the subject such as fighter's personal info or UFC ranking from UFC site (note: the UFC ranking is not ranked by UFc but by 21 MMA media which UFC records the outcome each week on their site instead on the respective MMA media sites).

Question from Algorithm69 on Northeast Regional (00:10, 10 May 2024)[edit]

How do i use my sandbox --Algorithm69 (talk) 00:10, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Algorithm69 Good day. "HERE" is your sandbox. Sandbox is like a note book/scape book that you can testing or testing and experimenting with editing. I suggest you to complete WP:TWA to understand Wikipedia guidelines and editing. Cassiopeia talk 12:35, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A question about vandalism[edit]

Let's say I think of a way to vandalise an article I find funny. Is there a way I could publish it in a good and safe way (see below for my thoughts on this)?

I used to plan to do it and undo it right after that. I even tried it once, although it happened to be something rather hard to undo and even harder to completely get rid of bad effects. However, now I realise that that may lead to bans if the rules don't care about immediate reversion. Maybe putting it on the talk page would be good, but I'm not sure. Sometimes I may want the vandalism to be not very noticeable, but still published in some form. Orisphera2 (talk) 23:14, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
