W.R.T. The wiki article on John Paul II - The quotation in the evolution section attributed to JPII and starting with the phrase "If taken literally..." is false. Check the citation link and try finding that quote there.

The first Western Australian to win Olympic gold, O'Halloran learnt to swim in his home town of ]. He moved to ] to attend secondary schooling at ], where he began swimming passionately. Competitive swimming was not well developed in Western Australia; races were held in muddy river pools, so in late 1955, O'Halloran moved to the east coast to support his attempt to qualify for the Olympics. His new coach, ], overhauled his training regimen, and within a year, O'Halloran had reduced his times by approximately 10%. He gained Olympic selection in the relay and the 400&nbsp;m freestyle. O'Halloran led off the Australian quartet on the way to a new world record, before placing sixth in the 400&nbsp;m. Thereafter, O'Halloran's career was beset by ear problems, and he retired in 1958 after failing to qualify for the ]. In 1976, O'Halloran died after tripping and accidentally shooting himself. (])

Finished this for the moment, so stuck it in mainspace. If you get a chance to take a look, I'd appreciate it as I feel like there's stuff missing I can't put my finger on. Feel free to add anything you think needs to go it or to chop it about generally! I'm hoping to add to the 3rd Test article, but may take a while... --] (]) 20:15, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
:Maybe my brain is shot to pieces after too much short pitched bowling but er... which book more about the Fingo and Braddles hate-fest? There are quite a few! Not sure if you mean Growden or Fingo himself. I got in the stuff about the Don's charming character assassination after Fingo's death from Frith and a quite a bit about their mutual admiration for each other. Anything specific? Wasn't sure about the rest from Growden as it struck me as pushing POV to have so much against Bradman from people close to Fingo. For example, putting in Tiger's view may be pushing it if there is no other stuff supporting Bradman. And there is no real evidence either way (although I think we all know who really did it! :) ) --] (]) 20:32, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
::Yeah but Bradman refused to talk to people except a few who turned super-hagiographer. The serious guys like Frith and Haigh severely criticise clowns like Perry, who is basically Bradman's agent. Perry even said that the 1935-39 Aust team were one of the weakest Aus attacks of all time adn the 3-2 adn 1-1 result was due to the genius of Bradman's captaincy; nonsense; Australia had two all time great bowlers and Bradman purged one of them when he was still strong ''']''' ('']''</font>) 02:29, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
:::Thanks for the Fingo stuff. Should prove very useful. I'll have a browse through and stick any useful stuff in. Rather than cramming it into the Leak article, what about a Fingo loves Braddles article? However, my stuff on Bradman is non-existent except for people claiming he wasn't as good as Hobbs/Hutton/Hammond/Sutcliffe/Headley/take your pick cos he couldn't play on stickies! Anyway, I'll probably see about GA for the leak fairly soon as I think the bulk of the main stuff is in there, and maybe add some more bits as I go and if it ever goes to FAC. Re Perry's ... interesting claims, O'Reilly was probably the difference in the 30s as England had a line-up as good as Aus except Bradman. And they had a habit of stuffing up under pressure (so, things haven't changed), picking crap teams (1936-37, Oval 30, Oval 34) or not turning up if Hammond failed. Not super captaincy. Just my two cents! --] (]) 20:10, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
::::I was going to write up a Bradman v the Irish Catholics but never got round to it. Did you know about the 1936-37 incident where the board hauled all teh Catholics (except Fingo) to a meeting about undermining Bradman. Feel free to pilfer the all the existing articles for snippets of course. Well Perry is useful for Bradman POV but I used his books before I read widely and discovered that he was a copycat. All his books on the Invincibles stuff are lifted straight off "brightly fades" except that he copied wrong. More ironic he is always saying Fingo is a pathological liar on Braddles' behalf and then plunders Fingo relentlessly. He even cuts and pastes the really distinctive stuff eg HAssett being caught by the Yorks keeper like a fishing net, and the joke about the sawdust sausages in 1948 ''']''' ('']''</font>) 07:42, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Why did I start this one? :) I'm up to the end of the first day and can't face the second day tonight! Too much to go in! Don't know if the stuff from the Hele book is from you.

'''indent''' It might be worth trying to have a push on improving articles in ] or something next year: not necessarily to GA/FA, but a lot of them could do with a lot of work, and it would be a more global task. Problem with the Invincibles and the Aus captains, is that as an Englishman, I'm not all that bothered about them to be completely honest! I write about Somerset for obvious reasons, but I'd be happy to improve articles on other topics (a lot on women's cricket, particularly South Africa, for no good reason). So a project push on the key bios might attract attention. Of course, there's not many people really about in the project, so it may well fall completely flat, I don't know.

It is my opinion that you misused your administrative privileges in blocking me. I have seeked help with the help me tag on how I could proceed with your blocking me. However before that I assume that you acted in accordance with Misplaced Pages conventions and rules in handing the block and so I request you to kindly explain and justify your actions. Nothing personal here all this is for the betterment of Misplaced Pages.

===Blocked editor humbly requests explanations===
#The two emails landed in this editor's spam folder. You could simply have written a message on this editor's talk page. Now that has complicated the issue a little. Thankfully they were not deleted automatically as is done with messages in the spam folder and so were found by this editor. Both are dated 2010-10-02 around 3.00 pm and were retrieved only a while ago, after about 3 weeks.
##First message sent by you - '''Why are you fighting in such an inflammatory way? you have to stop'''
##Second message sent by you - '''If you want an unblock. No taunting, etc.'''
#Administrator you have rushed to block an editor for in your opinion pov and troll.
##When the editor requested you to reconsider the block, you have responded with emails to which you did not receive a response.
##You did not bother to use other means of communications such as writing a message on the blocked editor’s talk page or place a talkback tag, after a lack of response from the blocked editor.
##Surely you are aware that a blocked editor has as many options open for communication as a gagged cat.
##On the editor's part he waited for a response from you, and also let time pass so that his reactions would grow out of the natural impulsive nature it would have, as a result of the block. On receiving no communication from you the blocked editor decided to sit out the block, and look at the matter after his editing privileges were restored.
#The aggrieved editor would like to bring to your attention what Jimbo Wales wrote '''"Remember what we are doing here. We are building a 💕 for every single person on the planet. We are trying to do it in an atmosphere of fun, love, and respect for others. We try to be kind to others, thoughtful in our actions, and professional in our approach to our responsibilities."'''
##Could you administrator kindly explain how your actions build an atmosphere of fun, love and respect for others
##Could you administrator kindly explain how your actions are thoughtful
##Could you administrator kindly explain how your actions demonstrate that you are professional in your approach to your responsibilities.
#This editor wishes to bring to your attention the following recommendations about accountability for administrators '''"Administrators are accountable for their actions involving administrator tools, and unexplained administrator actions can demoralize other editors who lack such tools. Subject only to the bounds of civility, avoiding personal attacks, and reasonable good faith, editors are free to question or to criticize administrator actions. Administrators are expected to respond promptly and civilly to queries about their Misplaced Pages-related conduct and administrator actions and to justify them when needed.'''
##Thus administrator the editor's request to you to justify your action was a very natural response to the action you had taken.
#Please take notice of the following recommendations regarding blocking '''"Blocking is a serious matter. Administrators should be exceedingly careful when blocking. Blocks should be made only if other means are not likely to be effective; prior discussion or warnings should generally precede all blocks. Blocks should be used only to prevent damage or disruption to Misplaced Pages, and if there could be any reasonable doubt about whether a block is appropriate, other administrators and/or the community should be consulted. Following a block, the blocked editor should be notified of the block on their talk page, and additional notification on site may be appropriate to seek community input."'''
##What other means administrator did you consider before implementing the block?
##What made you administrator decide that these means would not likely to be effective?
##Did you administrator discuss before blocking?
##Did you administrator issue warnings?
##Did you administrator demonstrate that the editor's actions were disruptive and damaging to Misplaced Pages?
##Did you administrator consult other administrators before enforcing the block?
##What actions have you administrator taken when an editor taunted another editor following your block with the words "'''Thank god for that (add his talk page to your watch list and you'll see it). Hopefully his 2 week block will give our newer friend ] some food for thought too on what happens when you behave like this.'''"? Especially since you administrator consider taunting a serious offence deserving a block.

Having references included in articles is one of the most important aspects to a good article, let alone Misplaced Pages! Without them, no one would ever know what is true and what is false and Misplaced Pages probably wouldn't be where it is today. So this month, I will talk about how to check for references, how reliable they are, and so on and so forth.


The first thing to do when reviewing an nominee is to do a quick scan of the article. One of the things to look for is if the article has references! If you don't see a list at the bottom of the article page, quick-fail it.<ref>Before quick-failing the article, verify that one of the several referencing templates is correctly placed at the bottom of the article. If the template is not placed, try to place it to see if references are displayed. If this proof returns no references, then proceed to quick-failing.</ref> For newcomers, quick-failing is failing an article when you spot a problem before actually conducting a full review. If you do find a list of references (and in most cases you will) make sure to look through each and every one. If you want to save some time, use as it will tell you if there are any problematic references in the article you are reviewing.


Next, check the reliability and type of the references/sources. In terms of the type of reference, check to see how many primary and/or secondary sources are included. Primary sources are the ones published by the subject of the article. For example, if the subject of the article has to do with the ] and the source is published by ], it is considered a primary source. Secondary sources are those ''not'' published by the subject of the article (or in close relation to it). Newspapers are examples of secondary sources and considered one of the better types to include in the article (not saying primary sources are bad). If you find that most/all of the references are primary sources, notify the nominator about this issue(s) and place the article on hold once you have completed the review. Only in the event that a secondary source can't be found as a replacement, then the primary source can remain. If there is a good mix of primary and secondary sources, that is perfect and no references need to be changed.
Hi YellowMonkey. I met Yogesh at ] recently and saw the block in his history. I am under the impression that there was no warning (at least on-wiki, I see you sent him an email) and that the block length was excessive. I think I have never seen two weeks for a number of borderline disruptive talk page comments before. Maybe I have seen a 1-day block for that, after a stern on-wiki warning. (On-wiki is important because some users use a separate email account for Misplaced Pages and don't read that regularly.) Now Yogesh has an entry in his block log, and one that looks a lot worse than it was. Or did I miss something?


Now, reliability. Forums are generally not considered reliable and some blog's may not be reliable either. Newspapers, most sources published by the subject, some blogs, etc. are considered reliable. If you don't know wether the source is reliable, ask for a second opinion. For more info about how to identify wether a reference is reliable or not, visit ].
I told Yogesh to notify me if the block comes up later, and he has just left a message on my talk page. I did not advise him to write so much text. :) ] ] 19:56, 19 October 2010 (UTC)


Finally, one of the more basic things to look for is that every statement in the article has at least one reference! The only case that a statement doesn't need a reference is when it is common sense that the statement is defiantly true and/or in the case where the statement can't be challenged, as per what Misplaced Pages says, "All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable published source using an inline citation."

The ''']''' held on 23 October 1955 determined the future ] of the ], the nation that was to become ]. It was contested by Prime Minister ] ''(pictured)'', who proposed a ], and former emperor ], the head of state. Diệm won the election, which was widely marred by ], with 98.2% of the vote. In the capital ], Diệm was credited with more than 600,000 votes, although only 450,000 people were on the electoral roll. He accumulated tallies in excess of 90% of the registered voters, even in rural regions where opposition groups prevented voting. The referendum was the last phase in the power struggle between Bảo Đại and his prime minister. In the period leading up to the vote, campaigning for Bảo Đại was banned, while Diệm's election campaign used personal attacks against him, including pornographic cartoons and rumours that he was illegitimate. Bảo Đại was attacked by the government-controlled media, and police went door-to-door, warning people of the consequences of failing to vote. After his brother ] successfully rigged the poll, Diệm proclaimed himself president. {{TFAFULL|State of Vietnam referendum, 1955}}

If you think you will not have the time to recruit any users at this time but are still interested in becoming a recruiter, you can still add your name to the list of recruiters but just fill in the "Status" parameter with "Not Available".

*'''Co-Director:''' The current Director for the centre is me (Dom497). Another user that would be willing to help with some of the tasks would be helpful. Tasks include making sure recruiters are doing what they should be (teaching!), making sure all recruitments are archived correctly, updating pages as needed, answering any questions, and distributing the feedback form.

== GAN December 2013 Backlog Drive ==

{| {{WP:WikiProject Good articles/Shell|introduction=Hello! A ] will begin in less than 4 days!<br/>

In past Backlog Drives, the goal was to reduce the backlog of Good article nominations. In the upcoming drive, another goal will be added - raising as much money as we can for the Wikimedia Foundation. How will this work? Well, its pretty simple. Any user interested in donating can submit a pledge at the Backlog Drive page (linked above). The pledge should mention the amount of money the user is willing to donate '''per review'''. For example, if a user pledges 5 cents per review and 100 nominations are reviewed, the total donation amount is $5.00.<br/>

At the time this message was sent out, two users have submitted pledges for a total of 8 cents per review. All pledges, no matter how much money, are greatly appreciated. Also, in no way is this saying you must make a pledge.</br>

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or leave a message on the ]. And remember, there are less than 4 days before the drive starts!--] (]) 03:06, 27 November 2013 (UTC) }}

He was ]ed in his second match and then seventeen times in his fourth match, leading to angry crowd demonstrations. Marsh only played in two more first-class matches and he was passed over for ] because of his action.

== WikiProject Good articles Future GAN Backlog Drive ==

Hello everyone! Hope you've all been having a great summer!

] recently proposed the idea of having another Backlog Drive in either September/October or November/December of this year. For those of you who have participated in the past two drives you know I was the one who organized them, however, come September, this will be my most important year in school so I will not be able to coordinate this drive (if it happens). TheQ Editor has volunteered to be a coordinator for the drive. If any of you would like to co-coordinator, please notify TheQ Editor on his talk page.

If you would be interested in participating in a Backlog Drive sometime before the end of this year, please notify TheQ Editor. Also, make sure to specify what month(s) work best for you.

At the time this message was sent out, the backlog was at 520 nominations. Since May, the backlog has been steadily increasing and we are currently near an all time high. Even though the backlog will not disappear over one drive, this drive can lead to several others which will (hopefully) lead to the day where there is no longer a backlog.

As always, the more participants, the better, and everyone is encouraged to participate!

== GA Cup ==

Hello everyone! We hope you have all been having a great summer!

As we all know, the recent GAN Backlog Drives have not had any big impact on the backlog. Because of that, me (Dom497), Figureskatingfan, and TheQ Editor have worked on an idea that could possibly finally put a dent into the massive backlog. Now, I will admit, the idea isn't entirely ours as we have took the general idea of the WikiCup and brought it over to WikiProject Good Articles. But anyways, here's what we have in mind:

For all of you that do not know what the ] is, it is an annual competition between several editors to see who can get the most Good Articles, Featured Article's, Did You Know's, etc. Based of this, we propose to you the GA Cup. This competition will only focus on reviewing Good articles.

For more info on the proposal, ]. As a FYI, the proposal page is not what the final product will look like (if you do go ahead with this idea). It will look very similar to WikiCup's page(s).

The discussion for the proposal will take place ]. Please let us know if you are interested, have any concerns, things to consider, etc.

WikiProject Good articles is holding a new competition, the ], from October 1, 2014 - March 28, 2015. The Cup will be based on reviewing ]; for each review, points will be awarded with bonuses for older nominations, longer articles and comprehensive reviews. All participants will start off in one group and the highest scoring participants will go through to the second round. At the moment six rounds are planned, but this may change based on participant numbers.

Some of you may ask: what is the purpose for a competition of this type? Currently, there is a backlog of about 500 unreviewed Good article nominations, almost an all time high. It is our hope that we can decrease the backlog in a fun way, through friendly competition.

Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors! ] will be open until October 15, 2014 so sign-up now!

If you have any questions, take a look at the ] and/or contact one of the four judges.

Yeah, I know this talk page is protected. Yeah, I know you have retired. But you do the best work on Vietnamese articles I can think of, so if you want a project if and when you return, while pounding the "random article" button I came across Vietnamese family and thought maybe you'd be able to work it up a bit. Possibly needs a re-title (Family life in Vietnam?) and a lot of TLC, but when I saw it needed help, I thought I'd throw it your way. Toodles. --Jayron32 01:21, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Olympic panda.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

Non-free rationale for File:Olympic panda.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Olympic panda.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Main page appearance: Kevin O'Halloran

This is a note to let the main editors of Kevin O'Halloran know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on March 3, 2012. You can view the TFA blurb at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/March 3, 2012. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director Raul654 (talk · contribs) or his delegate Dabomb87 (talk · contribs), or start a discussion at Misplaced Pages talk:Today's featured article/requests. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Kevin O'Halloran (1937–1976) was an Australian freestyle swimmer of the 1950s, who won a gold medal in the 4 × 200 m freestyle relay at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne. The first Western Australian to win Olympic gold, O'Halloran learnt to swim in his home town of Katanning. He moved to Perth to attend secondary schooling at Guildford Grammar School, where he began swimming passionately. Competitive swimming was not well developed in Western Australia; races were held in muddy river pools, so in late 1955, O'Halloran moved to the east coast to support his attempt to qualify for the Olympics. His new coach, Frank Guthrie, overhauled his training regimen, and within a year, O'Halloran had reduced his times by approximately 10%. He gained Olympic selection in the relay and the 400 m freestyle. O'Halloran led off the Australian quartet on the way to a new world record, before placing sixth in the 400 m. Thereafter, O'Halloran's career was beset by ear problems, and he retired in 1958 after failing to qualify for the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games. In 1976, O'Halloran died after tripping and accidentally shooting himself. (more...)

Look Yellow Monkey. Because you've been inactive for over a year they've taken your admin tools away from you anyway.

If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below:

1920's-era photograph of Charlie Macartney

Charlie Macartney (1886–1958) was an Australian cricketer who played in 35 Tests between 1907 and 1926. He was known as The Governor-General in reference to his authoritative batting style and his flamboyant strokeplay, which drew comparisons with his close friend and role model Victor Trumper. Making his Test debut in 1907, his most noteworthy Test contribution in his early career was a match-winning ten wicket haul at Headingley in 1909. It was around this time that Macartney befriended Trumper and began to transform himself into an audacious attacking batsman. The First World War stopped all first-class cricket and Macartney enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force. Upon the resumption of cricket, Macartney stamped himself as one of the leading batsmen in the world with his performances during the 1921 Ashes tour. Macartney produced an Australian record score in England of 345 against Nottinghamshire, which led to him being named one of the five Wisden Cricketers of the Year in 1922. After missing the 1924–25 series due to mental illness or a recurrence of war injuries, Macartney departed international cricket on the 1926 tour of England. Macartney was posthumously inducted into the Australian Cricket Hall of Fame in 2007. (more...)

Good Articles of the Month

Each month, 5 random good articles will be choose to be featured here as the good articles of the month.

Some Tips About References/Sources

Having references included in articles is one of the most important aspects to a good article, let alone Misplaced Pages! Without them, no one would ever know what is true and what is false and Misplaced Pages probably wouldn't be where it is today. So this month, I will talk about how to check for references, how reliable they are, and so on and so forth.

The first thing to do when reviewing an nominee is to do a quick scan of the article. One of the things to look for is if the article has references! If you don't see a list at the bottom of the article page, quick-fail it. For newcomers, quick-failing is failing an article when you spot a problem before actually conducting a full review. If you do find a list of references (and in most cases you will) make sure to look through each and every one. If you want to save some time, use this tool as it will tell you if there are any problematic references in the article you are reviewing.

Next, check the reliability and type of the references/sources. In terms of the type of reference, check to see how many primary and/or secondary sources are included. Primary sources are the ones published by the subject of the article. For example, if the subject of the article has to do with the iPhone 4s and the source is published by Apple, it is considered a primary source. Secondary sources are those not published by the subject of the article (or in close relation to it). Newspapers are examples of secondary sources and considered one of the better types to include in the article (not saying primary sources are bad). If you find that most/all of the references are primary sources, notify the nominator about this issue(s) and place the article on hold once you have completed the review. Only in the event that a secondary source can't be found as a replacement, then the primary source can remain. If there is a good mix of primary and secondary sources, that is perfect and no references need to be changed.

Now, reliability. Forums are generally not considered reliable and some blog's may not be reliable either. Newspapers, most sources published by the subject, some blogs, etc. are considered reliable. If you don't know wether the source is reliable, ask for a second opinion. For more info about how to identify wether a reference is reliable or not, visit this article.

Finally, one of the more basic things to look for is that every statement in the article has at least one reference! The only case that a statement doesn't need a reference is when it is common sense that the statement is defiantly true and/or in the case where the statement can't be challenged, as per what Misplaced Pages says, "All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable published source using an inline citation."

Notes
  1. As of October 2, 2012 at 19:05 (UTC).
  2. Before quick-failing the article, verify that one of the several referencing templates is correctly placed at the bottom of the article. If the template is not placed, try to place it to see if references are displayed. If this proof returns no references, then proceed to quick-failing.

Main page appearance: State of Vietnam referendum, 1955

This is a note to let the main editors of State of Vietnam referendum, 1955 know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on January 3, 2013. You can view the TFA blurb at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/January 3, 2013. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director Raul654 (talk · contribs) or his delegates Dabomb87 (talk · contribs), Gimmetoo (talk · contribs), and Bencherlite (talk · contribs), or start a discussion at Misplaced Pages talk:Today's featured article/requests. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you can change it—following the instructions at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Ngô Đình Diệm

The State of Vietnam referendum held on 23 October 1955 determined the future form of government of the State of Vietnam, the nation that was to become South Vietnam. It was contested by Prime Minister Ngô Đình Diệm (pictured), who proposed a republic, and former emperor Bảo Đại, the head of state. Diệm won the election, which was widely marred by electoral fraud, with 98.2% of the vote. In the capital Saigon, Diệm was credited with more than 600,000 votes, although only 450,000 people were on the electoral roll. He accumulated tallies in excess of 90% of the registered voters, even in rural regions where opposition groups prevented voting. The referendum was the last phase in the power struggle between Bảo Đại and his prime minister. In the period leading up to the vote, campaigning for Bảo Đại was banned, while Diệm's election campaign used personal attacks against him, including pornographic cartoons and rumours that he was illegitimate. Bảo Đại was attacked by the government-controlled media, and police went door-to-door, warning people of the consequences of failing to vote. After his brother Ngô Đình Nhu successfully rigged the poll, Diệm proclaimed himself president. (Full article...)

WikiProject Good Articles Recruitment Centre

Hello! Now, some of you might be wondering why there is a Good article icon with a bunch of stars around (to the right). The answer? WikiProject Good articles will be launching a Recruitment Centre very soon! The centre will allow all users to be taught how to review Good article nominations by experts just like you! However, in order for the Recruitment Centre to open in the first place, we need some volunteers:
  • Recruiters: The main task of a recruiter is to teach users that have never reviewed a Good article nomination how to review one. To become a recruiter, all you have to do is meet this criteria. If we don't get at least 5-10 recruiters to start off with, the Recruitment Centre will not open. If interested, make sure you meet the criteria, read the process and add your name to the list of recruiters. (One of the great things about being a recruiter is that there is no set requirement of what must be taught and when. Instead, all the content found in the process section is a guideline of the main points that should be addressed during a recruitment session...you can also take an entire different approach if you wish!) If you think you will not have the time to recruit any users at this time but are still interested in becoming a recruiter, you can still add your name to the list of recruiters but just fill in the "Status" parameter with "Not Available".
  • Co-Director: The current Director for the centre is me (Dom497). Another user that would be willing to help with some of the tasks would be helpful. Tasks include making sure recruiters are doing what they should be (teaching!), making sure all recruitments are archived correctly, updating pages as needed, answering any questions, and distributing the feedback form. If interested, please contact me (Dom497).
  • Nominators, please read this: If you are not interested in becoming a recruiter, you can still help. In some cases a nominator may have an issue with an "inexperienced" editor (the recruitee) reviewing one of their nominations. To minimize the chances of this happening, if you are fine with a recruitee reviewing one of your nominations under the supervision of the recruiter, please add your name to the list at the bottom of this page. By adding your name to this list, chances are that your nomination will be reviewed more quickly as the recruitee will be asked to choose a nomination from the list of nominators that are OK with them reviewing the article.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to seeing this program bring new reviewers to the Good article community and all the positive things it will bring along.

A message will be sent out to all recruiters regarding the date when the Recruitment Centre will open when it is determined. The message will also contain some further details to clarify things that may be a bit confusing.--Dom497 (talk)

WikiProject Good Articles Recruitment Centre

Hello! Now, some of you might have already received a similar message a little while ago regarding the Recruitment Centre, so if you have, there is no need to read the rest of this. This message is directed to users who have reviewed over 15 Good article nominations and are not part of WikiProject Good articles (the first message I sent out went to only WikiProject members).

So for those who haven't heard about the Recruitment Centre yet, you may be wondering why there is a Good article icon with a bunch of stars around it (to the right). The answer? WikiProject Good articles will be launching a Recruitment Centre very soon! The centre will allow all users to be taught how to review Good article nominations by experts just like you!

Main Page appearance: Le Quang Tung

This is a note to let the main editors of Le Quang Tung know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on October 16, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask Bencherlite (talk · contribs). You can view the TFA blurb at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/October 16, 2013. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Lê Quang Tung (1923–63) was the commander of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam Special Forces under the command of Ngô Đình Nhu, brother of South Vietnam's president, Ngô Đình Diệm. During the 1950s, Tung was a high-ranking official in Nhu's Cần Lao, a secret political apparatus which maintained the Ngô family's grip on power. Appointed as commander of the special forces in 1960, his leadership was noted more for repressing dissidents than fighting the Viet Cong insurgents. His most well-known attack was the raid on Xá Lợi pagoda in August 1963 in which hundreds died or disappeared. Tung's main military programme was a scheme in which army personnel attempted to infiltrate North Vietnam for intelligence gathering and sabotage. The program was ineffective, with the vast majority of infiltrators being killed or captured. Tung was also reported to be planning an assassination attempt on Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., the U.S. Ambassador to South Vietnam. Following the pagoda raids, America terminated funding to Tung's men because they were used as a political tool rather than against the communists. Along with Diệm and Nhu, Tung was assassinated during the November 1963 coup. (Full article...)

I agree as well, your loss was the most deeply personal to me in the project and many of my fellow editors would agree with me.

I finally understood the reasons of your absence and hell, I don't blame you. Misplaced Pages is a terrible place and extremely addictive at times, especially back in 2009. But this is a totally changed community now and we would stand behind you 100%. If you come back simply to write content, it would be one of the biggest pleasures this project have seen in years. I'm not asking you to come back full time to this headache, but to memorize the good times of your project experience and ponder about making this a part time hobby by providing your irreplaceable knowledge. Your friend. Secret 12:27, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

"Totally changed" is a huge overstatement but there are at least a higher percentage of fairer minded people about nowadays. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:44, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

GAN December 2013 Backlog Drive

Hello! A GAN Backlog Drive will begin in less than 4 days!

In past Backlog Drives, the goal was to reduce the backlog of Good article nominations. In the upcoming drive, another goal will be added - raising as much money as we can for the Wikimedia Foundation. How will this work? Well, its pretty simple. Any user interested in donating can submit a pledge at the Backlog Drive page (linked above). The pledge should mention the amount of money the user is willing to donate per review. For example, if a user pledges 5 cents per review and 100 nominations are reviewed, the total donation amount is $5.00.

At the time this message was sent out, two users have submitted pledges for a total of 8 cents per review. All pledges, no matter how much money, are greatly appreciated. Also, in no way is this saying you must make a pledge.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or leave a message on the Backlog Drive talk page. And remember, there are less than 4 days before the drive starts!--EdwardsBot (talk) 03:06, 27 November 2013 (UTC)

GAN December 2013 Backlog Drive

Hello! Just a friendly reminder that the GAN Backlog Drive has begun and will end on December 31, 2013!

Proposed deletion of Gary Chapman (director)

The article Gary Chapman (director) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No evidence he's a notable film director or artist. Notability tag is 4 years old. Directing one notable film is not sufficient to meet WP:ARTIST criteria.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Sionk (talk) 21:33, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Nomination of Gary Chapman (director) for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Gary Chapman (director) is suitable for inclusion in Misplaced Pages according to Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Gary Chapman (director) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

The blurb as it stands now is below:

Jack Marsh

Jack Marsh (c. 1874 – 1916) was a first-class cricketer of Australian aboriginal descent whose career was curtailed by continual controversy surrounding the legality of his bowling action. Born into the Bundjalung people at Yulgilbar in New South Wales, he first made an impression as a professional runner before playing club cricket in Sydney. In a trial match against the New South Wales state team in 1900, he dismissed two Test cricketers but was called for throwing; he then bowled with his arm in splints to prove that his action was legitimate. Having topped the bowling averages in the local competition, Marsh was selected to make his debut in the Sheffield Shield. He made an immediate impression and led the first-class bowling averages for the season after three matches. He was no-balled in his second match and then seventeen times in his fourth match, leading to angry crowd demonstrations. Marsh only played in two more first-class matches and he was passed over for selection for Australia because of his action. Regarded as one of the outstanding talents of his era, his lack of opportunities has often been attributed to racial discrimination. (Full article...)

WikiProject Good articles Future GAN Backlog Drive

Hello everyone! Hope you've all been having a great summer!

TheQ Editor recently proposed the idea of having another Backlog Drive in either September/October or November/December of this year. For those of you who have participated in the past two drives you know I was the one who organized them, however, come September, this will be my most important year in school so I will not be able to coordinate this drive (if it happens). TheQ Editor has volunteered to be a coordinator for the drive. If any of you would like to co-coordinator, please notify TheQ Editor on his talk page.

If you would be interested in participating in a Backlog Drive sometime before the end of this year, please notify TheQ Editor. Also, make sure to specify what month(s) work best for you.

At the time this message was sent out, the backlog was at 520 nominations. Since May, the backlog has been steadily increasing and we are currently near an all time high. Even though the backlog will not disappear over one drive, this drive can lead to several others which will (hopefully) lead to the day where there is no longer a backlog.

As always, the more participants, the better, and everyone is encouraged to participate!

GA Cup

Hello everyone! We hope you have all been having a great summer!

As we all know, the recent GAN Backlog Drives have not had any big impact on the backlog. Because of that, me (Dom497), Figureskatingfan, and TheQ Editor have worked on an idea that could possibly finally put a dent into the massive backlog. Now, I will admit, the idea isn't entirely ours as we have took the general idea of the WikiCup and brought it over to WikiProject Good Articles. But anyways, here's what we have in mind:

For all of you that do not know what the WikiCup is, it is an annual competition between several editors to see who can get the most Good Articles, Featured Article's, Did You Know's, etc. Based of this, we propose to you the GA Cup. This competition will only focus on reviewing Good articles.

For more info on the proposal, click here. As a FYI, the proposal page is not what the final product will look like (if you do go ahead with this idea). It will look very similar to WikiCup's page(s).

The discussion for the proposal will take place here. Please let us know if you are interested, have any concerns, things to consider, etc.

WikiProject Good Articles - GA Cup

WikiProject Good Articles's 2014-15 GA Cup

WikiProject Good articles is holding a new competition, the GA Cup, from October 1, 2014 - March 28, 2015. The Cup will be based on reviewing Good article nominations; for each review, points will be awarded with bonuses for older nominations, longer articles and comprehensive reviews. All participants will start off in one group and the highest scoring participants will go through to the second round. At the moment six rounds are planned, but this may change based on participant numbers.

Some of you may ask: what is the purpose for a competition of this type? Currently, there is a backlog of about 500 unreviewed Good article nominations, almost an all time high. It is our hope that we can decrease the backlog in a fun way, through friendly competition.

Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors! Sign-ups will be open until October 15, 2014 so sign-up now!

If you have any questions, take a look at the FAQ page and/or contact one of the four judges.

Cheers from NickGibson3900, Dom497, TheQ Editor and Figureskatingfan.

Hi. You're missed. Meanwhile, we've got an OK for an Ashes-related FA on Main page for Nov 23. As a placeholder (and maybe final too) I've plumped for Bodyline. You're probably not aware that the rules now permit a second run at Main page. We might go for two cricketers or some other fancy thing, and I'm guessing whatever we go for there's a fair chance you helped it to FA, so...

In any case, hope you're well. Would love to see you back here some time. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 14:07, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
