A Greek Welcome
Welcome to the Wright Challenge. It's getting busy - 3 barnstars so far! Feel free to ask questions here or here, or ask Andrew (when availble) or I. Victuallers (talk) 22:38, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for welcoming! --Ttzavaras (talk) 18:05, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
- I'm intending that Roland Pope will go on the English main page under DYK. I think I can find a picture of his work. Victuallers (talk) 19:37, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
Then I would be grateful if you could add the picture to the article! Thanks in advance... --Ttzavaras (talk) 20:05, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
DYK for Ronald Pope
 | On 17 May 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Ronald Pope, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that English sculptor Ronald Pope learnt how to work with metals at Rolls-Royce during World War II? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
The DYK project (nominate) 08:03, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
Yes, I'm back, I read your Derby article, and I got your message. I am currently trying to improve my Greek (I can do ancient, I'm not so good at modern) so reading through your piece was good practice for me! Best wishes -- Andrew Dalby 20:00, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

- Dear Ttzavaras, I see your name listed on our project page as the Greek lead integrator - nice to meet you. :) I was wondering if you had some time to look into the integration of the completed Greek translation of Common cold. Please drop me an email here: ildikosantana at gmail dot com, so that I can send you the target file for integration, in case you don't have access to the TwB Workspace.
- Many thanks in advance for your assistance! Ildiko Santana (talk) 01:20, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

- New pilot projects: Started the Wikipedia Visiting Scholar project to empower university-affiliated Wikipedia researchers
- Developed community: Created portal connecting 250 newsletter recipients, 30 library members, 3 volunteer coordinators, and 2 part-time contractors
- Tech scoped: Spec'd out a reference tool for linking to full-text sources and established a basis for OAuth integration
- Broad outreach: Wrote a feature article for Library Journal's The Digital Shift; presenting at the American Library Association annual meeting

The Wikipedia Library: New Account Coordinators Needed
Hi Books & Bytes recipients: The Wikipedia Library has been expanding rapidly and we need some help! We currently have 10 signups for free account access open and several more in the works... In order to help with those signups, distribute access codes, and manage accounts we'll need 2-3 more Account Coordinators.
It takes about an hour to get up and running and then only takes a couple hours per week, flexible depending upon your schedule and routine. If you're interested in helping out, please drop a note in the next week at my talk page or shoot me an email at: jorlowitz
gmail.com. Thanks and cheers, Jake Ocaasi via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 23:41, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
