Adopt-a-User

Hello User:Eley. I see you're looking for an adopter. I would be pleased to be that adopter, if you're interested; I've been on Wikipedia more than six months and have more than three thousand edits. I have quite a bit of experience in article development, dealing with Wikiquette alerts, and categorization. I also have some experience with the Articles for deletion process and a few other internal functions of Wikipedia. I am absolutely no good at making pages look nice, and I'm only passingly acquainted with uploading photos (and the various copyright concerns that go along with doing so), so if you plan on making these your focii, you might want to choose a different adopted.

That's no problem; we'll do this at your pace. Just let me know when you're ready to start or if you have any questions in the meantime. Also, you might want to put {{adoptee|Sarcasticidealist}} on either your user or talk page, unless it would make you feel silly. I look forward to helping you out (and hopefully learning a little about Irish history from you, a subject about which I am woefully ignorant). Sarcasticidealist 19:01, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Eley - I see you haven't been on Wikipedia for a while. With that in mind, I'm going to remove the adoption banner from your site (and the corresponding one from mine). I'll be more than happy to resume the relationship should you return, but for now the banner is just sort of cluttering up my page without meaning anything. I hope all is well, and please do contact me if you return! Sarcasticidealist (talk) 07:30, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation

Hello. You may have seen that some Wikipedia articles lack sources to given dates, timelines and chronologies.
If you feel that you could like to help in making all articles more reliable and well sourced in this regard, we would like to encourage you to use, as part of your daily editing and when {{fact}} is not enough for requesting clearly and specifically a citation or source for dates, timeline or chronology, the following inline tag:

{{Timefact}} displays ^{{chronology source needed}} for requesting timelines, dates and chronology sources. Click here for more information

At WP Timeline Tracer, we thank you for using these tools and for helping to make Wikipedia articles more accurate and reliable.

The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence

Hello. I'm contacting you and other members of WikiProject Books in order to find if you are interested in collaborating to expand and improve The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence article to make it worthy of becoming a featured article candidate, in light of the fact that it is the first book the U.S. government ever went to court to censor before its publication. --Loremaster (talk) 22:20, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merging Russian projects into one project - your input requested

Hi, you are receiving this message as you are a member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Russian history. I have made a proposal to merge several Russian related projects into WP:RUSSIA. You can view the proposal at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Russian_history#Proposal_for_overhaul_and_creation_of_a_single_WP:RUSSIA_project. As a member of the Russian history project, your input is requested; so that all editors are reading off the same page please limit discussion to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Russia/Proposal. We all look forward to your input. --Russavia ^{Dialogue Stalk me} 10:28, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge

Hi, at Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge we're striving to bring about 10,000 article improvements and creations for the UK and Ireland and inspire others to create more content. In order to achieve this we need diversity of content, in all parts of the UK and Ireland on all topics. Eventually a regional contest will be held for all parts of the British Isles, like they were for Wales and the Wedt Country. We currently have just over 1900 articles and need contributors! If you think you'd be interested in collaborating on this and helping reach the target quicker, please sign up and begin listing your entries there as soon as possible! Thanks.♦ --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:41, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
