[edit] Article alerts

This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.

If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Message sent by User:Addbot to all active wiki projects per request, Comments on the message and bot are welcome here.

[edit] Tarasova and Gorelik

My friend (Luu) noticed that both Tatiana Tarasova and Aleksandr Gorelik articles name Gorelik as Tarasova's first partner, which isn't true. Her first parner was Aleksandr Tikhomirov (Александр Константинович Тихомиров), while Gorelik at 1964 European Championships competed with Tatiana Sharanova (Татьяна Шаранова). -- deerstop. 19:24, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

• As for the sources, Tarasova states herself that Tikhomirov was her first partner in the book Chetyrie Vremeni Goda (1985): "мой первый партнер Александр Тихомиров" - "my first partner Aleksandr Tikhomirov". [1] -- deerstop. 17:37, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
• Well, I see that noone cares about Tarasova, so I'll go ahead and be bold. :) -- deerstop. 19:25, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] FLC

Hey all. Just wnated to warn you that I've nominated List of Olympic medalists in figure skating for FLC. If you have the time and will, you can review it and give your opinion here. Thanks. Parutakupiu (talk) 23:55, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] GAN backlog reduction - Sports and recreation

As you may know, we currently have 400 good article nominations, with a large number of them being in the sports and recreation section. As such, the waiting time for this is especially long, much longer than it should be. As a result of this, I am asking each sports-related WikiProject to review two or three of these nominations. If this is abided by, then the backlog should be cleared quite quickly. Some projects nominate a lot but don't review, or vice-versa, and following this should help to provide a balance and make the waiting time much smaller so that our articles can actually get reviewed!
