NPL Our Story Matters Editathon

Hi Carwil. I work with the Nashville Public Library. We are hosting "Our Story Matters", a Wikipedia editathon focused on the Civil Rights movement in Nashville on February 7 from 11-4. Pharos and Clifford Anderson mentioned that you were pretty active in human rights issues on Wikipedia. Would you be interested in participating in the event or helping us out with some of the training? We have a great Civil Rights Collection here and think it will be a great resource for improving/adding Wikipedia articles. Amwilliams15 (talk) 14:13, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Change in your user rights

Your Wikipedia account was previously granted a user right called "course instructor" by the Wiki Education Foundation. That right enabled you to create a course page through the EducationProgram MediaWiki extension. Starting in fall 2015, the Wiki Education Foundation has discontinued its use of this extension. Going forward, users should create course pages through the Wiki Education Foundation website. That application is more user-friendly, and any content is automatically mirrored to Wikipedia. To prevent confusion, we'll be removing your "course instructor" user right, as it is not needed with the new system. This is simply a notification of the technical change to your account. No action is needed from you at this time.

If you plan on teaching with Wikipedia for the fall 2015 term, please email me (helainewikiedu.org) for instructions how to create your next course page using our new system. --Helaine (Wiki Ed) (talk), sent by MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 02:34, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

1st Plurinational Legislative Assembly of Bolivia

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of 1st Plurinational Legislative Assembly of Bolivia, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Current members of the Plurinational Legislative Assembly. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 16:57, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

White people article, Da Vinci image

In the article Ancient Egyptian race controversy we can see as treat the racial issue of people who are so ancient that no one has artistic source as they were physically, and yet exist this article argumenting each group hypothesis to give by truth certain beliefs about the Egyptians. As you see them, this article should Not exist, because in that age not is not written that nobody classified to other groups as whites, blacks, or asians--Vvven (talk) 16:51, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

i try to mean this article is saying an ancient egyptian was white, or ancient egyptian were black, and their article is valid, i said Da vinci was white because f.e. all his pictures confirm this, as they say the unrecognizable color of ancient egyptians, they affirm was black or white, for example in that article is it that a scholar say "When I visited the sphinx ... on seeing that head, typically Negro in all its features" i mean just for seeing the little damage shynx of gyza, he saw that It looked like a black face, i affirm in my case that da vinci was white because in his pictures he completelly see as white, and his ancestries were europeans--Vvven (talk) 17:54, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

AAU Study

I'm fine with the "not serious enough" bit being left out of the Lede. Originally I wanted it in the AAU Survey Section. I think it's particularly relevant there because, according to Bonnie Fisher, they've never seen that before. Per a Washington Post Article on this, "The dominant reason for why students who didn’t tell authorities: They said it wasn’t serious enough. “That will stimulate a lot of discussion,” said Bonnie Fisher, a professor at the University of Cincinnati and a Westat consultant. “We as researchers don’t know a lot about this — it hasn’t been measured in the past.” [1]

If we believe Fisher, this is a new finding that's appropriate for that section. Nblund is arguing that it's common to many studies, and refers to her interpretation of Fisher's other writings, to keep it out of that section. I've seen some of the quotes that Nblund has offered in the past. Fisher was offering theoretical explanations, including the opinions of others rather than survey data. This time, she's commenting on the study that she helped lead. Thoughts? Mattnad (talk) 19:43, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
