User talk:Chairboy - Knowledge (XXG)

1733:, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Knowledge (XXG) administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community 2987: 2357:: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the 644: 1518: 1172:. In my first year on Knowledge (XXG), all I got was a welcome notice on my talk page (that I never referred to) and an unhelpful warning after I tried to delete a redirect by blanking the page. Everything I learned about Knowledge (XXG) has been through reading policies, guidelines and essays on my own, as well as editing, because I'm genuinely interested in it. I've also had people revert my changes accusing me of doing things I wasn't, like 2654: 2793: 2612: 3757: 3422: 1950: 728: 687: 3332: 2911: 2838: 2766: 2515: 2439: 1411: 1287:. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Knowledge (XXG), but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore.

I came to wikipedia and searched for the article to see what this site was about, as I often do when I encounter things I am unfamiliar with. I was surprised to find that there was no article on it (as a minute number of the plethora of search items I have entered in my life yield no results). So I googled it instead, and found it to be of significance and importance. 2721: 1893: 937: 3693: 3651: 3609: 3179: 2262: 279: 2673: 826:), particularly the earlier accusation that it was blatant advertising. Websites such as Amazon, Ebay, Facebook, MySpace, Xanga, The Best Page in the Universe, Ain't It Cool News, FiLife.com, BibleGateway.com, and tons of other websites that I have never heard of before (like the last three I mentioned) have Knowledge (XXG) articles on them. 185: 2601: 3724:

Roger roger! It's a good policy. My life has moved in a different direction and while I tried to get in some more admin activity in the last few months in response to the original notice, I can't seem to get that same old fire going. Maybe in a couple decades I'll be up for the challenge again and

Thank you for your note - glad that you liked the photo. I have taken about 10,000 airplane pictures since 2004 and I really wanted to share some of the better ones. PDing these gives me a chance to do that - I have had authors pick them up for books. It is a nice feeling to see your photos being

I have the same question. DoubleBlue improved the article, adding sources and meeting the objections of at least two editors who voted to delete. I think there was a consensus to keep, particularly since early objections must be discounted if later improvements to an article make those objections

If you can make a good article about it, go for it! But the copy I deleted in 2006 was not that article. Here's the complete text: "It is a part of the priceless collection in the Château d'Angers." and had a stub tab attached. Seriously, that was the entirety of the article. Also, _2006_!
