History/Interests

Quinn's Rules

Tools: WP:Huggle, WP:AWB, WP:ROLLBACK

Vandalism

  1. Revert first, then discuss
  2. Use the Warn function in WP:Huggle, even for IP's - so they can be blocked.

WikiProject Banners

  1. Every article should have one; usually more. The more eyes, the better the article.
    1. If more than 3; place {{WPBS}}; If WPBIO then add blp=yes to the shell
  2. WP Banner Order
    1. If WPBio, then move it to first position. Take a famous tennis player; WPBio, Then Tennis, Then country of birth. Then state if US, Cities if they have a "Category:Sports people from {cityname}"
    2. if Museum: Museum, then {art|tech|natural}, then country, maybe city

Templates

  • Fix Infobox categories; add WP banners

Projects

I have a number of projects in which I have an interest. I have not joined them all. I am still learning about Portals, Projects, Templates and Categories; how they currently work and generally making sure that my areas of interest are up to standards and correct data-wise when possible.

List of projects: (in order of joining)

Areas in which I have an interest

Articles I'm working on in my sandbox

These are works in progress, but I would still be interested in input other wikipedians had to offer on them.

Articles I'm working on live

  1.  Done Make Project:Tennis talk banner like Project:France (with the "right Icon").


  • Check Wikipedia:TOTD more often
  •  DoneAdd {{Signpost-subscription|right}}
  • Check out usage of {{Werdnabot|inc_cur=3}}
  •  Donefind the ToDo thing and implement it for Tennis

Tennis

  1. Adding pages to the project and the portal; Still searching/debating "rules" for which page goes where...
  2. Category:List-Class_tennis_articles - Building this list; also N/A's
  1. See why the "see also" list here: List_of_female_tennis_players does not show up under general tennis categories...
  2. Rebuild Template:WikiProject Tennis from a custom template to a WPBannerMeta standard template (see Sandbox).
  3. Assess articles: Category:Unknown-importance_tennis_articles
  4. Go for players that need an infobox. Find Category.

Boise

  1. IP:Boise State Broncos tennis; Find stats, coaches list, awards
  2. DONE:Need 'Boise State University' bottom banner (See other major universities...)

 Done Made it {{Boise State University}}

  1. Make Broncos a sub category of Category:College_tennis_teams like these guys: Category:South_Carolina_Gamecocks_tennis
  • I will work on this page also...since he lives in town...Greg Patton

List building

There are three basic steps to building a topic list for Wikipedia: the first is to search Wikipedia to make sure it doesn't already have a list on the subject. The second step is to hunt down every word you can find on the subject, from your own memory, books, web directories, dictionaries, etc. Surround each term with double square brackets, and save the page.

Because Wikipedia has become so extensive, don't be surprised if most or even all of the links turn out blue (those are live links, each leading to an article on Wikipedia). Dead-end links are red, but don't remove them, because they show what articles Wikipedia is missing — anyone can click on a red link to create an article on that topic. The third step is checking each live article in the list for links to related topics. When you find one, add it to the list.
