[edit] Power Rangers

Great job on enhancing the articles for T.J., Tommy, and Jason.

I think you should do the same for the Zack, Adam, Kimberly, Katherine, Trini, Ashley, Carlos, Andros, Jen, Tori, Blake, Conner, Ethan, Kira, and Trent articles.

The problem with enhancing the articles is that firstly, I've only seen parts of the very beginning of PR, along with LR-NS, and half of Dino Thunder, and even articles on some of the Rangers would be lacking, as they weren't very heavily developed (eg. LR had a very heavy emphasis on Carter, but the other five Rangers had relatively little developement). kelvSYC 04:46, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Zordon Entry

Good job on the Zordon entry. Very good!

[edit] Pokemon Wikibooks

I understand you are the founder of the pokémon book at wikibooks and I was wondering what you thought of this idea. (I believe it has been mentioned before) Why not move the entire pokedex (along with smaller pokémon articles like missingno and pokemon cities) currently on wikipedia to Wikibooks in a new comprhensive pokemon book? In my opinion this would solve several problems.

• The (attempted) deletion of pokémon articles (which could eventually grow) would stop.
  • Such people wouldn't see the pages on random page or recent changes and would hopefully cool down.
• Pokemon articles will be concentrated into a an easily navigable book
• The level of detail could be much higher (what you seem to be doing with move lists and attack levels for every pokemon)

In summary I'm sugesting the move of the Pokémon Wikiproject to wikibooks.

I'd be happy to work on such a project, time permitting.

Comments? Ridicule? Correct my spelling? [[User:BrokenSegue|BrokenSegue]] 20:58, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)

The problem with such an idea is that a Pokédex is that, in the world of Pokémon, the Pokédex is an encyclopedia of Pokémon knowledge. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and thus the Wikipedia Pokédex (ie. Wikipedia:WikiProject Pokédex) is an encyclopedia to the fictional world of Pokémon. If you argue that it shouldn't be on the pedia, then consider the articles that deal with fictional universes such as Star Trek and Star Wars, which should be precedent for the Wikipedia Pokédex to exist. The problem is that there is a clear distinction between the Pokédex as seen in the games, and the Pokédex as seen from the mangas or anime. b:Wikibooks Pokédex does the former: it provides game data, as b:Pokémon attempts to be a Pokémon game strategy guide. The latter is filled by articles in Wikipedia.

However, there are some information on Pokémon that is irrelevant to the game (but plays a significant role in mangas or anime), and Wikipedia, as an encyclopedia and not a game strategy guide, is the better place to put the information. For example, information about how Team Rocket's Wobbuffet keeps summoning itself from its Pokéball is of no value to the Wikibooks Pokédex.

The reason for the separation in the first place was that detailed information relevant to the games was not appropriate for Wikipedia, but with the (then-new) Game Guide section at Wikibooks, it was a better fit there. There is currently a proposal for whether something goes in the pedia or the books, and it sums up to "if it's game data, it's clearly in the books, and if it's part of manga or anime continuity, then it's part of the pedia".

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

• Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
• Multi-Licensing Guide
• Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

You mentioned that you'd like to remain neutral on this issue. Unless you have time to consider this more closely, that seems like a good plan. If in the future the issue becomes more pressing, I may ask you again, but I don't have a problem with people taking time or choosing to remain neutral. Thank you for taking the time to respond to me. – Ram-Man ^{(comment) (talk)}[[]] 03:52, Dec 12, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Marik vs. Malik

I wonder if Kazuki Takahashi has actually romanized his name as "malik", or if it is just a popular romanization for his name. Even the French manga uses "Marik" at least from what I can tell from Kana's website.

This link (http://users.skynet.be/petc/manga-zone/mangas-y-yugioh.htm) shows that the French manga uses "Ishizu" too... apparently "Isis" may also be just a popular rendering of her name. (Again, if Takahashi actually romanized her name as "Isis", please say so :) ) WhisperToMe 04:10, 20 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I think it's a product of weird romanization. If you do it as-is, then yes, "Marik" and "Ishizu" would be correct. I'd refer to them as "Marik" and "Ishizu" personally (if it was "Isis", would the first kana be an a and not an i?). The best bet is to get someone with the anime and see how the seiyuu pronounce it there. kelvSYC 04:19, 20 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Pokémon and Digimon

Here's what I had thought on doing today, I was initionally planning on making a category for both Pokemon and Digimon, and adding differing descriptions between the two shows later, but after seeing many complaints, I decided to spin-off to a new title in a new article called Differences Between Pokémon and Digimon. See if you like it and you can give me feed back right away at User talk:Roadrunner3000.

Roadrunner3000

As I have stated, the two series are unrelated. Why would you want to categorize two unrelated things together? In terms of categorization, it makes no sense. If I were to put this issue in front of the Wikipedia community, they are likely to delete your article and revert your changes. kelvSYC 04:36, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Votes for Deletion

Hi there. Thanks for deleting that rubbish purporting to be from me at the bottom of VfD. Wikipedia's acting very strangely for me today. I edited in the usual way and for some reason it stuck it down there, then refused to let me delete it. -- Necrothesp 16:37, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] NHL timeline

I tried some things to avoid label conflicts. I wonder if there's a way to change the link color, because blue just isn't going to work. It would also be nice to horizontally offset some of the labels, like to start the Oakland Seals label before the bar. That row is going to be tough. – flamurai (t) 07:16, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)

Try something like shift:pos(-50, 0) to move 50 pixels left. Also to note:

What I have in mind is that the bar representing the team would have one of the team's colors (eg. the yellow in the Boston Bruins bar is supposed to be the yellow that the Bruins use). Between the two gray bars, of course, is the Original Six era.

I also need to add a few footnotes to this (eg. season cancelled by lockout), so I still have to install some textdata.

kelvSYC 07:28, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Yeah. The problem with the colors right now is that you can't change the link color, so some things (Maple Leafs) are completely unreadable. I asked about that on m:Help talk:EasyTimeline syntax to see if that could be changed. Eventually, we should make some color tags to get more accurate colors, but it's more important to get the layout right first. – flamurai (t) 07:48, Mar 4, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Bulbapedia

I noticed you've done a lot of work on Pokemon related articles here and at Wikibooks, so I was wondering if you have heard of Bulbapedia. It's a Pokemon enclyclopedia using the same software as Wikipedia. It's only been open for a few months but has been growing rapidly. Some articles you may wish to look at are Bulbasaur's Pokedex entry and the article for Fury Cutter. - Jshadias 05:27, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I've lurked there, but I prefer to work on my own works at b:Pokémon. b:Pokémon is designed to be purely a game guide under the b:Game Guides and Strategy book(shelf), while the Pokémon articles here would have more on non-game aspects such as the anime. My major objective is to make the two parts work well, despite the fact that they are on two different wikis. kelvSYC 05:38, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikibooks

I really don't know. I'm not active on wikibooks myself. Just run stats for it. Erik Zachte 12:10, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Timeline

KelvSYC, I added anchor/align/shift attributes. Unfortunately texts in narrow bars always need a small vertical shift. This can't be changed as it would break existing charts (and the amount depends on font size, which is unpredictable once unicode support has been added).

With reluctance I decided to add sometime in the future linkcolor attribute. Reluctance, because all charts now have blue colored links which gives a certain amount of uniformity and makes clickable links easy to recognize. Link colors in Wp articles are all uniform too (unless one adds a user specific stylesheet). I plan to get back to EasyTimeline maintenance somemetime this summer. Very busy with other projects right now. Please copy the colors block, and add #> <# for block comment around the original block and use lighter varieties in the meantime. Erik Zachte 13:53, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

How about User:KelvSYC/TimelinesTest ? See lowest bars, for an alternative solution, that also keeps fonts size readable. Erik Zachte 14:20, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Amateur Hockey Association

Hi KelvSYC, where did you find the information mentioned at "The Trail Begins". For example: "The hockey club arm of the AAA, for reasons unknown, was adamant about refusing the trophy, (...)". I didn't find similar information in the whole internet... --MichaelK talk 15:05, 10 May 2005 (UTC)

From the print work Total Hockey, which used The Trail of the Stanley Cup as its source. Most of these old stuff you can only find in print. kelvSYC 06:30, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The incorrect names for Anzu Mazaki

Which games do the "Kyoko Mazaki" or "Anzu Shinzaki" names appear in? WhisperToMe 19:29, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

I've seen it only once in several Yu-Gi-Oh! games, only when Anzu is first introduced. In every other instance, "Téa Gardner" was used. I believe Stairway to the Destined Duel was one of them. kelvSYC 22:43, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] A Pokemon Wiki

There is a Pokemon wiki at http://pokemon.wikicities.com/wiki/Home - it's not as good as the stuff we have here, but I think if we help, it may be within a few months. I think that us Wikipedians from the Pokemon project should help there to make is better. User142 30 June 2005 11:54 (UTC)

I won't be able to work on Pokémon anytime soon - my focus is right now on b:MegaMan Battle Network. But I see myself sticking to b:Pokémon for the forseeable future. As Wikicities is based on MediaWiki, Special:Import (when wikicities upgrades to 1.5) might be helpful to the project (if you get past the GFDL licensing restrictions present in all Wikimedia projects). kelvSYC July 1, 2005 01:18 (UTC)

[edit] Getting better coordination between b:Pokémon and WP:PAC

I noticed on Wikipedia:WikiProject Pokédex that you were coordinating between that project at b:Pokémon.
Wikipedia:Pokémon Adoption Center is de facto the inheritor of WP:Pokedex, but it's very, very inclusionist (no surprise there, as WP:PAC came from an effort to keep the Pokémon stubs off of VfD). Nothing necessarily wrong with inclusionism, but I was hoping to get your perspective on where the line betweeen Wikipedia-appropriate information and Wikibooks-appropriate information, specifically in this topic.
Understood if you don't want to get involved, naturally. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 15:17, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

Whoo... Haven't worked on b:Pokémon for a long time (since admining in Wikibooks and working on b:MegaMan Battle Network is taking my time...), but my general thoughts is that, and as I have reiterated, that video game stats are Wikibooks only, and that the Wikipedia pages should constrain themselves to basic facts and facts about them revealed in the anime, mangas, or Live (eg. in the mangas, most Pokémon are capable of human speech, but Pikachu consistently speaks with its own syllables). To summarize, "game guide"-like material should go in Wikibooks and not here - it was the reason why the book was founded in the first place.

BTW, I don't really approve of pronounciation boxes as firstly, it's not in IPA, and second, many different canonical pronunciations exist for the same Pokémon (eg. The a in Pikachu is either /a/ or /@/ depending on the speaker, while in Larvitar, the i is pronounced with a schwa in Pokémon 4Ever and with a dipthong in Master Quest. Chimecho has two unrelated pronunciations altogether - one, /tSaImEkou/, from the fact that the word is a portmanteau of "chime" and "echo", and the other, /tSimikou/, was used in various English AG promos). kelvSYC 05:53:30, 2005-08-12 (UTC)

[edit] Use of mathematical notation in articles

Howdy, regarding your edits to generalized selection, projection (relational algebra), rename, and selection (relational algebra), math notation is a user preference. Users can choose wether they want to display formulae by using TeX or by displaying the unicode characters. If you write it in unicode, the users are unable to decide how is the formulae displayed. Not everyone knows how to write unicode special characters, and not everyone is capable of doing so. However, everyone is capable of writing in TeX, since it's a language independent of special characters.

You should also have in mind that older versions of browsers do not support the full spectrum of the unicode character set and therefore when visiting articles written with unicode special characters (such as phi or rho) they see a character error display.

Basically, the use of mathematical notation is encouraged when the formula uses special characters such as phi, rho, set inclusion, greater than, etc etc. For example, Firefox displays the correct unicode character for "greater than" but Microsoft Internet Explorer does not (it displays a similar character with an inclination on the equality symbol).

If you want to modify the formulae when it just displays universal letters (a-z) then feel free to do so, but please leave the mathematical notation for special characters. I have reverted each one of the articles mentioned beforehand for this same reason. If you wish to edit the formulae that defines sets of the form a^1, a^2, ..., a^n that's fine, but please do not write formulae with symbols such as phi and rho in unicode.

Kudos,

—Joseph | Talk 12:32, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

The choice of rendering is made to maintain consistency with how articles on mathematics in Wikipedia are displayed. Furthermore, decisions have been made in Wikipedia about how special characters (ie. non-ASCII) have been rendered, and a large amount has been to break "renderability" in this manner (eg. usage of IPA, Chinese characters, etc.). Wikipedia has in the past held the "screw the older browsers" position in this manner, and I am sure the same will eventually apply here. kelvSYC 04:22, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Why did you remove the Super 14 Trophy from the Stanley Cup?

It is actually relevant. It mentions the Stanley Cup: Like the Stanley Cup in the National Hockey League and the Super 12 trophy, the trophy is a rotating trophy, held only during the offseason and returned to the competition organisers in time for it to be awarded to the next season's champions. This is dissimilar to the Vince Lombardi Trophy, which is permanently awarded to each winner of the Super Bowl, which in turn means that a new trophy is created every season. Please read actually read the linked article before removing from pages. --Hamedog^Talk|@ 23:13, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

This is as the two trophies are only superfically related. One is a 100-year old trophy, the other is new. One is for rugby, the other for hockey. Other than the fact that the two trophies are given out the same way each year, I don't see any similarities. Thus, the two are only superfically related at best. Wikipedia is not a place to link superficially related information together. kelvSYC 08:32, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Curling tables

Wikipedia Conventions? What are you talking about? If there is any convention for curling tables, it's the one that is on the majority of the curling pages. I only made a different one for the Olympics because the page was so long, and 10 does not divide by 3, so I couldn't use a similar format. Looking at both versions, I think that mine looks nicer, at least on my computer. -- Earl Andrew - talk 19:51, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think your table looks ugly. Anyways, the colours are not irrelevant, as they represent the colours used for each team, except lighter so that text can be placed over it. Again, I created both table versions, and I feel this is more apporpriate. -- Earl Andrew - talk 21:02, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

The difference between the Sens table you showed me and the one on the Sens page, is that the one on the Sens page looks a lot nice. The colour adds a lot, and the reason we dont put it in the standings for the NHL is because it would get too distracting, as it would fill up all the boxes. This is not the case in the table I made for the Scotts. My table is a lot nicer, and easier to read. All the information about the team is in the same box. Soudog's curling site [1] does things the same way. [2] -- Earl Andrew - talk 22:29, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

I disagree as well. I do not think the content is obfuscated in the least. The teams are listed right below the province for easy readibilty. How is this obfuscated? -- Earl Andrew - talk 22:53, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

You gotta be kidding me. That's the worst argument I've ever heard. Anyone can figure out the table. -- Earl Andrew - talk 03:14, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Camino icon.png

Image:Camino icon.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 18:47, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Ice Hockey August 2007 Newsletter

edit   WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear KelvSYC! You are receiving this newsletter because you have signed up as a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey. The purpose of this newsletter is to update on the goings on of the project, as there have been major changes, and a lot of new recognized content in the past few weeks. If you are an inactive user, you probably won't recognize the new and improved state of the WikiProject! From the project, Maxim. edit   New recognized content By Maxim There have been a lot more Good and Featured articles written in the past few weeks. Here is a list:[1][2][3][4] Featured articles Wayne Gretzky — Promoted on 2006-02-14; on Main Page on 2006-06-13 New Jersey Devils — Promoted on 2006-11-20; on Main Page on 2007-06-30 Martin Brodeur — Promoted on 2007-04-28 Fighting in ice hockey — Promoted on 2007-05-07; on Main Page on 2007-07-19 Dominik Hasek — Promoted on 2007-05-25 Good articles Calgary Hitmen Colorado Avalanche National Hockey League Joe Sakic Nottingham Panthers Stanley Cup Traditions and anecdotes associated with the Stanley Cup Ray Emery The French Connection (hockey) Featured lists[5] List of ice hockey teams in Alberta List of ice hockey teams in Saskatchewan Frölunda HC seasons List of Colorado Avalanche players List of family relations in the National Hockey League List of New Jersey Devils players List of New Jersey Devils head coaches List of drafted Frölunda HC players Notes ^ All articles are in order of promotion, as written on the main WikiProject page; FA's have official dates of promotions. ^ A star represents a featured article or list ^ A green circle represents a good article ^ Stanley Cup is an A-Class article ^ The lists system differs from articles, and doesn't give an official date of promotion edit   Article Improvement By Maxim Upon some discussion on the WikiProject talk page, the Article Improvement Drive page was revamped by Krm500 and Maxim. It was renamed Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey/Article Improvement, and it includes two section. The first section is called articles in dire need of improvement. It list articles, usually important, that are in very poor shape. The second section is called requested help. Users list an article they request help improving a certain article, which will facilitate collaboration, which is the aim of any WikiProject. There is one article currently listed there, Henrik Lundqvist, here. The goal is to at least get it to Good article status. edit   Diacritics By Maxim In the past few weeks, there has been quite heated discussion about the use of diacritics in article name. The current guideline is using diacritics in the pages of articles of all player names which require them, but redirects are exempt. edit   Task forces By Maxim There have been two new task forces started within the WikiProject to coordinate major topics. Sweden Ice Hockey task force This task force was initiated by Krm500. Its current goal is to improve Henrik Lundqvist to Good or Featured article status. It covers all Swedish clubs, leagues and competitions and associated articles, players and coaches that are Swedish, or have played/coached for a Swedish club, and arenas in Sweden. They plan to eventually operate as a sort of a sub-project, which will have its own articles for creation, ranking importance and quality of articles, and co-ordinate article improvement. Its current members are Krm500, Bamsefar75, and CLAES. New Jersey Devils task force This task force was initiated by Bsroiaadn. Its goal is to improve New Jersey Devils to Featured Topic status. Although it currently meets the required article count, the task force wishes to improve it further. Its area of coverage is very similar to the Sweden Ice Hockey task force. Its members are Bsroiaadn, JHMM13, FutureNJGov, Sportskido8, Michael Greiner, JRWalko, and Soxrock. edit   Requested Images By Maxim After discussion on the WikiProject talk page, Serte created a page for Requested Images. The page encourages users to license images for use on articles. The page also has section to request images for players, arenas, game situations, miscellaneous, and team and league logos. The page has been quite popular; since it was created on July 21, there have been six completed requests. There are four currently outstanding requests: Patrik Eliáš — Photo of player, requested by Bsroiaadn Scott Stevens — Photo of player, requested by Bsroiaadn Daniel Alfredsson — Photo of player, requested by Maxim Hart Trophy — Photo of the original Hart Trophy (retired in 1960), requested by Scorpion0422 edit   Article assessement completed By Maxim On July 12, Kaiser matias announced that he had completed assessing all the articles with a {{ice hockey}} tag, sorting them into Category:Unassessed Ice Hockey articles. Kaiser matias has ranked about 9000 articles in that category, and most were stubs, and "have no information at all", according to him. Everybody is encouraged to expand the stubs into real articles. This effort took around 5 months. A big thanks goes to Kaiser matias from me and all the project. Note: You have received this newsletter because you have added your name here.

[edit] WikiProject Ice Hockey newsletter edit   WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear KelvSYC! You are receiving as you are a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey There's been more new thing going on at WP:HOCKEY, and I think this will help you to stay informed. Since the last newsletter sent out in August, there's been great changes. Read on to find out! Maxim(talk) This just in: Maurice 'Rocket' Richard Trophy has just been promoted to featured list status, while the bot was delivering the newsletter. Maxim(talk) 02:02, 28 September 2007 (UTC) And I've just promoted Art Ross Trophy. And Clarence S. Campbell Bowl is at FLC. This should be the last update. Maxim(talk) 00:40, 30 September 2007 (UTC) edit   New recognized content By Maxim Especially due to the featured topic drive, there have been many new featured lists promoted concerning NHL awards. Here's the full list of all the 13 FL's promoted since the last newsletter.[1][2] Hart Memorial Trophy James Norris Memorial Trophy Vezina Trophy Conn Smythe Trophy Frank J. Selke Trophy Lady Byng Memorial Trophy Lester B. Pearson Award Calder Memorial Trophy Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy King Clancy Memorial Trophy Jack Adams Award Presidents' Trophy List of Calgary Flames players There have been no new good articles or featured articles. Maurice 'Rocket' Richard Trophy has been given A-Class status due to multiple issues raised at FLC. ^ The last one, List of Calgary Flames players, is the only one not associated with the featured topic drive. ^ At the time of publishing, there were 5 lists at WP:FLC and 2 lists in the "Holding cell", as there's been an accepted guideline to not put more that 5 trophy lists at the same time to, "compensate for the sanity of the reviewers". edit   Did You Know? By Maxim There have been 4 new articles featured in the Did You Know section? on the Main Page since August. Wally Tatomir - August 4, 2007, authored by User:Maxim. ...that Wally Tatomir, head equipment manager of the Carolina Hurricanes, holds four patents on ice hockey-related equipment? Mark Major - August 12, 2007, authored by User:Schmackity ...that ice hockey player Mark Major attained 355 penalty minutes during the 1997-98 AHL season for the Portland Pirates, where he averaged 4.5 penalty minutes a game and still holds the club record? Garth Butcher - September 15, 2007, authored by User:Canuckle. ...that Garth Butcher was a member of Canada's first-ever gold medal team at the World Junior Ice Hockey Championships before becoming a pest and setting team records for penalty minutes in the National Hockey League? AMP NHL Winter Classic - September 22, 2007, authored by User:Skudrafan1 ..that the AMP NHL Winter Classic is scheduled to be the first regular-season outdoor National Hockey League game in the United States? edit   Featured Topic Drive By Maxim Started by User:Scorpion0422, the aim of this drive is to make NHL awards a featured topic. A featured topic is basically a set of very high quality articles (good articles and featured articles/lists). In this case, the topic is NHL awards. Many users have helped, including Scorpion0422, Resolute, Serte, Hasek is the best, Maxim, Croat Canuck, Spike Wilbury, FutureNJGov, and T Rex/Dinosaur puppy. The progress has been very good; there are 12 featured lists promoted, and 2 good articles: Hart Memorial Trophy (Scorpion) James Norris Memorial Trophy (Scorpion) Vezina Trophy (Scorpion) Conn Smythe Trophy (Serte) Frank J. Selke Trophy (FutureNJGov) Lady Byng Memorial Trophy (Scorpion) Lester B. Pearson Award (Scorpion) Calder Memorial Trophy (Croat Canuck) Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy (Maxim) King Clancy Memorial Trophy (Maxim) Jack Adams Award (Maxim) Presidents' Trophy (Scorpion) Stanley Cup (Earlier collaboration, very many involved) Traditions and anecdotes associated with the Stanley Cup (Maxim) Check the project page if you are interested in helping out. Although it's closer to being done than not, there's still work to be done. The next topic that might be tackled is Stanley Cup, but this remains purely speculative and in discussion.

Thanks. --MZMcBride (talk) 21:00, 14 February 2008 (UTC) [edit] WikiProject Ice Hockey March 2008 Newsletter edit   WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear KelvSYC! You are receiving as you are a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey There's been many more new things going on at WP:HOCKEY, and I think this will help you to stay informed. Since the last newsletter sent out in October, there have been many new changes. I'm hoping to make this newsletter a bit more regular; Kaiser matias and Skudrafan1 asked for a new issue a week ago, but sadly, I've been a bit lazy and committed to other things hence this other delay. --Maxim(talk) edit   New recognized content By Maxim There has been numerous new recognized content, so much that it's too time-consuming to sift through the "trophy cases" on WP:HOCKEY. Some interesting achievements: Hockey Hall of Fame was featured on the Main Page on March 7, 2008. AMP Energy NHL Winter Classic was promoted to Good Article status. Kaiser matias has been steadily promoting lists of NHL players per team to featured status. As of press time, List of Columbus Blue Jackets players is at FLC. Although covered in its own section, National Hockey League awards being promoted to featured topic status deserves a mention here, too. It seems that after October's issue, an interest in getting articles featured on the Main Page's Did You Know section has piqued. Half of the project's DYKs were made after October 2007. Krm500 assisted in promoting an ice-hockey related image to featured status. The featured version is Image:Wgretz edit2.jpg. Last, but certainly not least, Kim Williams has single-handedly gotten Nottingham Panthers, a British ice hockey team, promoted to featured article status. edit   Task forces By Maxim There was a new taskforce created within the WikiProject to deal with topics related to the Boston Bruins. It was originally founded as a separate WikiProject, but was quickly turned into a taskforce within WikiProject Ice Hockey. The list of participants is located here. Located at WP:BRUINS, the taskforce's goals are to make Boston Bruins and Bobby Orr featured articles. Good luck! edit   New Administrators By Maxim Since October, there have been three new admins promoted within the project: Kaiser matias (RfA) - Promoted with a final tally of 30/3/2, nominated by Epbr123 Djsasso (RfA) - Promoted with a final tally of 46/1/0, nominated by Maxim Rjd0060 (RfA) - Promoted with a final tally of 67/5/5, nominated by Ryan Postletwhaite A previously admin-only feature has been made available for all users. The rollback feature allows a user to quickly revert vandalism with one click. If you wish to have rollback, contact an active admin or post a request to WP:RFR. edit   Featured Topic Drive By Maxim The original featured topic drive, initiated by Scorpion0422, has concluded succesfully. National Hockey League awards is now a featured topic, with 24 articles in total. Of them, 20 are featured lists, one is a featured article, and the other three are trophy articles that were too short to become featured lists. Eight users signed up to help out, shown here. The next Featured Topic hasn't been decided upon, and the ideas and organization for it fell apart. If you have any ideas, don't hesitate to share them at WT:HOCKEY. edit   Notes More editors are needed to help out with the newsletter. Maxim doesn't have an infinite nor perfect supply of ideas, and thus he might omit some interesting news. Portal:Ice hockey is being considered for featured status. Feel free to nominate features at Portal:Ice hockey/Suggestions. Should Chris Pronger have been suspended for more than eight games for stomping on Ryan Kesler? Vote here!
