March Madness 2017
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:
- tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
- updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
- creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.
For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
Rollback?
I notice that you don't have the rollbacker right in your given list of user groups. If you like, I could grant you access to the rollback right so you can gain access to the tool. Drop me a line if you are interested, otherwise have a good evening (or morning as the case may be). TomStar81 (Talk) 02:10, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
Zawed, you have been pinged more than once to return to this nomination to continue your review, but you have not done so. Please resume it soon. If you don't think you'll be able to get back, then please let me know; I can put it back into the nominations pool to find a new reviewer, something that will be easier now, while the GA Cup is still running, than later—it would be the third oldest unreviewed nomination and thus eligible for top bonus points to any reviewer who took it on. Thank you. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:27, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
- @BlueMoonset: Real world life has kept me particularly busy for the last few weeks but I will be looking at this shortly. Cheers. Zawed (talk) 09:10, 14 March 2017 (UTC)

Survey Invite
I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they effect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take 5 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.
I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.
Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs (talk) 21:19, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

HMS Lion pictures
Hi Zawed: I moved the pictures from HMS Lion (1794) to HMS Lion (1777). The 1794 Lion was a tiny, single-masted Dutch hoy; the 1777 Lion was a 64-gun, three-masted, three-decked ship of the line. Nice pictures, just wrong location, so I moved them to the correct location. Regards, Acad Ronin (talk) 13:16, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks, I was going off the image file information when adding to the article, but now looking at the infobox, it is pretty clear that information is incorrect. Cheers. Zawed (talk) 07:10, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
- Well, the info was correct in that the picture was of Lion (1777), in 1794. Generally, the RN made a point of not having two vessels with the same name. This was one of the exceptions. Again, great find on the pictures; they tart up the correct article nicely. Cheers, Acad Ronin (talk) 00:02, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
A friendly reminder. :-) Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 21:34, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
