Hi Loganberry! Please be sure to have these pages on your watch list. There may be movements on them concerning articles or new articles that you may wish to edit or contribute to, but may not be already watching.
You are quite right, as I realised as soon as I'd gone to bed; I'd typed a load of nonsense. But it didn't quite meet the threshold for getting up to put it right. Rachel Pearce (talk) 06:53, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Worcestershire meeting?
Worcestershire Project get-together
I'm in the UK on a rare trip to my home town in Worcestershire. If all or anyone from the project would like to meet up, please let me know. I'll be returning to Asia on 3 October.--Kudpung (talk) 09:27, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Declined speedy. First class level at university does not pass WP:ATHLETE as there is a professional level of cricket. The accomplishments at the level played also do not rise to the level of notability expected of university-level athletes. No awards, accolades, or championships.
Thank you for your reply - very much appreciated. There is not much space in an edit summary to make a fully-formed argument, but I should have thought more about this. I now completely agree with you. As you rightly pointed out, this is simply not a matter that should be discussed at any length on an article talk page.
While it could be argued that, by way of their status, the Wisden and ICC awards are the "co-preeminent" Cricket awards[citation needed] and should be included in their respective "see also"s... I suspect this is something that may result in a whole bunch of talk with not much outcome. As you again pointed out, there a lot of Cricket awards, and with each their concomitant partisans. Mmmm... perhaps their should be a cat [[Category:Cricket awards]]
Oh, yes - Zebedee. Though I now know he was only a moustachio'd ping-pong ball on a corkscrew, when I was a kid, Zebedee appeared like some Babylonian demiurge in a kind of mini-Götterdämmerung at the end of each Magic Roundabout. "Zebedee arrived", said the narrator, and then with a voice like Metatron (or, alternatively, Pilate in the Wakefield Mystery Plays) Zebedee would say "time for bed". --Shirt58 (talk) 11:28, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Loganberry ! We now have a first review for GA. On the whole it doesn't look too bad. As you know, I am a local resident in absentia, and as a published author, a 'prose artist', but anything you can do to improve the language or address some of the more technical points as quickly as possible would be much appreciated. Any work on the new referencing system does not affect the overall quality and scope of the article for GA but you may be able to put put some of the wrong referencing things right and offer some suggestions on the other points made by the reviewer. It would be great for the Worcs project to have a GA of this envergure in its repertoire.

Hi Loganberry! An article within the scope of the WikiProject Worcestershire has been proposed for moving. Please see the discussion at Talk:Malvern Girls' College#Move proposal, and leave your comments there. Thanks. This is a message to Worcestershire project members; if it has been placed on your talk page in error, please ignore and/or delete it.--Kudpung (talk) 10:53, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Loganberry. Over the centuries, Malvern College has spawned an extraordinary number of top-class cricketers. A List of Old Malvernians (notable alumnae only) has been created that contains many of those cricketers. There are however problems in complying with Wiki rules for providing reliable sources. If you have time, perhaps you could cast an eye over the list and check that the parent Wiki articles on these people are accurately sourced regarding their studies and/or cricket performance at Malvern College. Thanks. --Kudpung (talk) 18:26, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Worcestershierre, Warwickshierre, Yorkshierre, and Everyshierre
Hello Loganberry! A non-British user seems to be attempting to suggest that the Brits are not pronouncing their own British place names correctly, and appears to believe that it is a policy of Wikipedia to instruct the Brits, through the use of the IPA, how British English should be pronounced. He/she also seems to be of the opinion that it is Wikipedia policy to regard British English by default as a rhotic language, which it is not. Some British Wikipedians are trying to avoid an edit conflict and have requested my support. I have added my comments to the debate the non-British user has has started in defence of his/her multiple, WP:BOLD? changes to IPA pronunciations of British place names. As a professional linguist I accord every version of English its own particular merits and my position here strictly concerns the way in which the IPA is interpreted and applied in the Wikipedia, and how the current policy may need to be changed through a truly representative consensus. If you would like to help resolve this issue, please see User talk:Kudpung#IPA, RP, etc. and User talk:Lfh#Warwickshire to get the background. Maybe you could then chime in with your views on the subject at Wikipedia talk:IPA for English#Rhoticity in place names. Thanks. --Kudpung (talk) 18:04, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If you are not yet a member of the The Worcestershire project, you are probably receiving this because you have significantly contributed to one of our pages. Now is the time to consider joining - it might help you get some assistance on a page you feel particularly attached to it.
Someone once asked on the project page if they could get a newsletter. The Worcestershire project only has a few members and they most probably have the project pages and major articles on their watchlists, but here goes anyway...
Great news for 2010!
This year has got off to great start with the promotion of Malvern, Worcestershire to Good Article status. The GA review process was particularly strict and demanding, and a good thing too, because it sets a benchmark for the quality to be targeted for other articles in the project, even if we do not intend to reach GA with them. Furthermore, and probably most important, this particular review clearly demonstrated what can be achieved with teamwork, and it puts the page on a par with biggies such as Manchester, one of the Wikipedia's flagship English settlement articles. Anyone can go ahead and create an article, and some articles have a major contributor, but it would have been impossible for Malvern to have been promoted without the extraordinary collaborative effort of a dedicated few, spread across three continents in very different time zones, and sometimes tripping over each other at all times of the day and night to get the article up to snuff.
Recently founded
Since the Worcs project was founded barely seven months ago on 8 June last year, in addition to the creation and maintenance of the project pages themselves. a lot of work has already been done by the Worcs project members, including the creation of stubs for most of the missing settlements in the county, creation and improvement work on Malvern Water, creation and expansion of articles on important schools and one or two biographies in the county, and general repetitive tasks such as keeping spam and vandalism at bay.
Experts!
All the members of the project have their own specialised fields of interest of course, such as French wine, schools, Lancashire, the Malverns, cricket, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, busses, castles, waterways, or Spike Milligan. However, they all have a common denominator somewhere that brings them together in Worcestershire.
The Worcestershire project mainly concerns settlements. Perhaps after the success of Malvern, the immediate priority now is to improve the articles that really ought to be the flagships of the project, namely Worcester, and Worcestershire. These two are, sadly, some of the articles in the worst state. They have been created long ago and expanded over time by a great many shingle-edit authors and IPs.
So wotnow? (pun)
A possible suggestion would be to take one of those rather shoddy pages, probably Worcester, the county seat, or the project's eponymous article Worcestershire and do a Malvern job on it. Such a concerted piece of teamwork might even earn the project another major GA - and we now know it can be done!
Meet up
An attempt at a meet up failed last year - mainly either because some of the most active members of the project live in other countries, or the timing wasn't quite right. We can have another attempt in April, when Kudpung will be back in Malvern for his dad's 90th birthday, and hopefully this will coincide with a home trip to the UK for GyroMagician.
Talk
The place to make your suggestions and dicscuss it all is HERE - be sure to have the page on your watchlist!

Happy Wikying, all the best for 2010, and special thanks again all round for the efforts of the Malvern taskforce, and to everyone else who has contributed to our articles.
Currently there are two featured articles in Worcestershire.
Priority Articles
The top priority articles have been identified as probably being:
The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, so we can concentrate our efforts on these first. Priorities are not set in stone and if you would like to discuss changes, please join in at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Worcestershire.
Other priorities:
The recommended priority by kind is for creation/improvement of complete articles is:
Places in the county
Schools in the county (Particularly susceptible to vandalism - please keep them on your watch lists if possible).
Transport in the county
Notable buildings/objects/geo features/AONB/Heritage sites, etc. in the county
History in the county
Industry & Commerce in the county.
People in the county - NOTE: These all need the Worcs project banner adding to their talk pages, and assessing.
County related articles about things not actually in the county, and/or other related projects.
Monitor Use the watchlist to keep an eye on changes to the project's articles so that vandalism and spamming can be removed as quickly as possible.
Infoboxes Some of our articles need their infoboxes completing infobox.
References Please remember that the list of stubs needing expansion is always in need of attention. Please take a look and see if you can help. One small edit, such as adding a reference section and reference, to an article each session would make a big difference. If you a re uploadiing an image, be sure it has a correct FUR, and that you have preferably already created a link on the page where you want it to be.
Moves, merges, and multiple edits Please be careful when performing articles moves and check if anyone seems to be in the middle of doing the same thing. If he; she, or they are, stop and have a chat about it. Otherwise you may be unintentionally duplicating or reverting each other's work. This is particularly important if an article is currently under a GA review. image may be deleted as it has an incorrect FUR.
Hello Loganberry! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 4 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 4 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

Here goes for the second irregular news bulletin...
First GA in 2010
We finally got over our euphoria over the Malvern, Worcestershire promotion to Good Article status. The GA sets a benchmark for the quality to be targeted for other articles in the project, and clearly demonstrated how important teamwork is.
Recently founded
A lot of work has already been done since the Worcs project was started, including the recent tagging of the talk pages of all the articles about people connected with Worcestershire, keeping spam and vandalism at bay, and welcoming new editors on their talk pages.
Experts needed!
The Worcestershire project mainly concerns settlements. It's generally agreed that the immediate priority now is to improve the articles that shiould be the flagships of the project, namely Worcester, and Worcestershire which are some of the articles in the worst state.
Meet up
Kudpung has booked his flight from Asia and will be back in Malvern from 1 April for a month, and looks forward to meeting up with as many Wikipedians as possible, especially those who work on the Worcs project.
NEWS
Two major debates are raging on the 'pedia and we have been cautiously taking part.
In for a shake up is an accumulation of nearly 50,000 totally unsourced articles that may end up on the cutting room floor after a period of grace. As a project, we can help by taking a look at those BLP in the county and doing what we can before the axe falls.
citations
A war almost broke out over citation formats, but a mature approach from Worcs project members prevented any physical injury. There, are only three basic rules for citations: 1. All articles must have them. 2. Consitency of format throughout an articles. 3. Changes to the format require a consensus. We are not obliged to use citation templates, and WP:LDR might not be such a good idea while chunks of text and/or their references are being copied and pasted around related articles in the county. In any case, let's always discuss what we have in mind HERE.
new project pages
The project main page has been pruned to be cleaner, and much of the support material has been transferred to dedicated pages. New usefull banners and templates have been created, and shortcuts to the new pages that also include a side bar navigator and a brand new easily edited To Do list.
new participant
After all the hints getting him to join, we now welcome User:wotnow !
sysop (admin)
Our only admin has resigned his tools. It would be great to have an active admin as a member of the project. If you think you would be able to cope with all the responsibility adminship involves, checkout WP:RfA and nominate yourself. Nobody needs to have a high edit count or to be an expert in all areas, but being active, having a reasonable overview of the workings of the Wikipedia, and a decent level of maturity, are expected minima. The process is not painless, and is worse than a British army promotion board! Alternatively you can always nominate another user.
Would you like to join the WP:WORCS?? Please enter yourself at WP:WORCS! - new editors are always welcome!

New project resources
Before making any major edits to articles or stubs, please be sure to read the new WP:WORCS/HowTo.
Urgent tasks are now listed at: WP:WORCS/ToDo. It should be referred to often, and will be your main stop for most maintenance tasks. We recommend keeping the page on your watchlist.
Most project pages now have brand new side bar for easy navigation. (Thanks, GyroMagician).

Hey. I'm not too sure exactly where it was I found it, but I know it was via some Google searches for "Worcestershire flag" and the like. It was just on a site which labelled it as such, although it's not really a decent image and probably not even official. I just uploaded it onto here as I wanted something to at least represent that county on my little list. Ը२ձւե๓ձռ1719:40, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello
You have written an article on Ali Brown. It says in the first section that his best score was 268 not out vs Glamorgan in 2002.

Just noticed this page due to reverting some vandalism. The four images used need to be tweaked with either FURs or text-logo rationales.

Hi Loganberry. A Worcestershire Project page has now been taken on by a reviewer for Good Article after a very long wait. Several points need addressing, but the page has not been rejected as an immediate fail. If you have time, please see Talk:Evesham, and if you can address any of the points listed, I'm sure that between us we can get it through to GA.

Autopatrolled
Hello, this is just to let you know that I have granted you the "autopatrolled" permission. This won't affect your editing, it just automatically marks any page you create as patrolled, benefiting new page patrollers. Please remember:
This permission does not give you any special status or authority
Submission of inappropriate material may lead to its removal
Notification of automated file description generation
Your upload of File:Clearway ends sign.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.
This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata.

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa.09:57, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Worcestershire - one of England's oldest and still existing (with some minor boundary changes) ceremonial and political shires, famous for its nearly 1000 year old cathedral, the River Severn, the AONB of the Malvern Hills, some of the oldest schools in the country, England's fastest growing university, apples, pears, cider and cricket, and of course its world famous sauce. The Wikiproject is now in need of some attention. Created 12 years ago, this project amassed a huge resource for editors working on all kinds of articles and categories related in some way or another to the county. Kudpung is more or less retired from Wikipedia getting on for 2 years ago and it would be good if a group of editors could get it up to date and continue to maintain it.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

and the first one in (checks notes) THIRTEEN years! When I first joined this WikiProject back in December last year, I was slightly tempted to mark it as inactive, as activity had extremely slowed and there had been no new participants in 3 years. But I have decided to revive this project, as Worcestershire means a lot to me and I know it does for so many others. But as many participants of this project have disappeared completely off Wikipedia, this project is now in dire need of attention and it would be helpful if a group of editors could join me and continue to maintain it.
Here goes for the third EXTREMELY irregular news bulletin...
Hanley Castle High School was was promoted to Good article on 30 August 2012. There are 78 good articles for educational institution of all kinds of which there are 4 GA for secondary schools in the UK. Hanley High School is the first state school in the UK to become GA.
Evesham was nominated on 2 December 2010 as a Good Article Candidate. The nomination unfortunately failed due to unforeseen unavailability of the editors working on the article. It only requires minor attention to be renominated.
Urse d'Abetot was awarded Featured Article status on 13 October 2009. Promoted by Karanacs, the article was 96.4% the work of Ealdgyth. It was finally featured on the main page on 14 April 2018.
The Battle of Powick Bridge was awarded Featured Article status in 2020 and appeared on the Main Page on 12 February 2023.
If you notice any editors contributing significantly to Worcestershire-related articles, then please ask them to join this WikiProject, as we need all the help we can get.

Population Now that the 2021 census details have been released, most settlement articles need updating. This website: https://www.citypopulation.de/ can be helpful, although you should note this does not collect data from hamlets or small villages.
Monitor The watchlist to keep an eye on changes to the project's articles so that vandalism and spamming can be removed as quickly as possible.
Infoboxes Some of our articles need their infoboxes completing.
References Please remember that the list of stubs needing expansion is always in need of attention. Please take a look and see if you can help. One small edit, such as adding a reference section and reference, to an article each session would make a big difference. If you are uploadiing an image, be sure it has a correct FUR, and that you have preferably already created a link on the page where you want it to be.
There is a project creating missing civil parish articles in England at User:Crouch, Swale/Missing parishes. The missing parishes in Worcestershire currently are:
I am currently planning on reforming the Evesham article to get it up to scratch for another GA nomination. If other editors are interested in helping me then please do, especially if you live in Evesham yourself, as the main photo is from 2008 and is out-of-date as there is a new statue in front of the building.

Hi, Loganberry, there's a discussion going on at the above article in which I quote your acute remark on the Talk page there about the ambiguity of its subject. That was back in 2007 but if you do have time and interest to drop in there and offer some more wisdom, that would be helpful. Thanks either way.
