Hi  Sonia. You said yourself that  you  would probably  regret  [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Tool_apprenticeship&diff=468853133&oldid=468805402 this]. I  though  we had buried the hatchet, but  unfortunately, at  least  in  ''my'' opinion, I  believe you  might  again have  demonstrated that  you  may still possibly have a penchant  for taking  things out  of context and/or putting  an unintended spin on  other editors' syntax. I value you  work here highly, but I  do feel  I  must  defend my  comments once again. Happy  new year to  you. --[[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung|talk]]) 02:36, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
:Hatchet re your RfA long since buried on my part, although I'm not sure if your "again" is meant to allude to my having misrepresented you both now and at that occasion. Either way, I stand by both comments. Here's to 2012, and a more productive RFA2012, perhaps. [[User talk:Sonia|<span style="color:#CC0099;">sonia</span>]]♫ 02:53, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
::I  will  allude also  to  the fact  that  you  quite erroniously  quoted RFA2011 as being unproductive -  you  obviously  missed the immense work on  research  and suggestions  that  have been done  and made there. Perhaps you'd like to  consider joining  the project and helping  it along  instead of simply joining  its detractors and criticising it. --[[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung|talk]]) 02:59, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
:::Given that we tend to find ourselves in direct conflict with each other, I feel that my presence might be to the detriment of the project (or at least its unity); as such, thanks, but I'll pass. [[User talk:Sonia|<span style="color:#CC0099;">sonia</span>]]♫ 03:20, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
::::We're not  really  in  conflict  with  each other, we just  have different  opinions on things, but  I  do  feel  that  where I  am  concerned, you  misunderstand what I say, and because you  are generally  a very  sensible person, othesr tend to  trust  your  judgement  and pile-on. I  don't  know how you  interact  with  others, but  I  would imagine  that  you  are a very  friendly  and helpful person. If you  are concerned with  the current  situation at  RfA -  and I  assume you  are because you  post on  RfA  and adminship related forums -  the offer to  join the RFA2011 project  is genuine, with  the proviso  that  its active contributors are positively  engaged with  ''any''  suggestions that  can reasonably  be examined. There is a lot of hard work  being  done there, and any  comments  that  the project  is not  getting  anything  done are inaccurate -  do  take a look  and browse its numerous pages, there has never been such  a concentrated and focused effort to  research the RfA issues in  the entire history  of Wikipdia. I certainly laud Dcoetzee's initiative, but  I  defend the right  to  point  out  where I  believe  it's the wrong  solution to  the wrong  problems, and that  the RfC itself is flawed. I  also  feel  very  strongly  that  such  proposals would have more impact  and exposure if they  came with  the support of a well  established Wikipedia project. All that  said, if you  feel  that  you  and I cannot  work  together, let me give give us both  the advice that  I  give to  others, by suggesting  that  we no  longer reply  to  each  other's comments on  project  pages,  unless of course, we are supporting  each  other's views. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung|talk]]) 04:04, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
:::::You're right in that we're not necessarily in conflict. Poor choice of wording there. However, I think we agree that our different opinions, goals and ways of approaching things mean that working together constructively would be quite a challenge. With this in mind, your observation that people tend to follow my lead seems to back up my point that my participation in RFA2011 would create discord among the well-intentioned people working there to improve the RfA process. I don't see why it should be a black-and-white choice between "join us or speak to me no more"; I'm perfectly happy for us to just go on our separate ways and interact as any two editors would, and for you to reply to (or misinterpret, for that matter) my comments whenever you like.
:::::That said... since I'm apparently "generally a very sensible person" who has the trust of the community, perhaps you could reconsider your stance on Dcoetzee's proposal. I don't see much harm in such a controlled trial taking place, and we can all find out for sure whether it's "the wrong solution to the wrong problems", instead of speculating :) [[User talk:Sonia|<span style="color:#CC0099;">sonia</span>]]♫ 02:05, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
:::::: I'm  afraid there is no  way  I  can change my  stance on  Decotezee's proposal for all  the reasons I  have already stated,  the summary  of which  is that  I  feel  it  does not  address any  of the problems with  admidminship  or its electioral  process. The fact  the the RfC itself is flawed is a Nebensache. Subjectively, I  didn't  go  through  hell  week to  embark on  a course that  would make access to  the tools any  easier for trophy  collectors or power seekers. It  should be clear by  now that  my  mission  is to clean up  the current  process from  the lies, deceit, incivility, bullying, and unreflected voting  that  has all  but  destroyed what  is otherwise -  in  theory  at  least - the best  system  that  is in  place. Until  some proposals to make it a more hygienic environment that  will  be made this year by  RFA2011 have been rejected by  the community, I  see no  need to  examine alternatives. That  said, there is nevertheless a section in  the project (which I do not  subscribe to) at  [[WP:RFA/RADICAL]] that  discusses and suggests other methods. The vast  resources and research that  have been done by  the RfA project  are free for anyone to  consult,  as is the experience of its adherents and I  have never, ever, even slightly  hinted in  the vaguest sense  "join us or speak to me no more". The day I utter such an abominable construct will be the day I gladly lay down my tools, retire from Wikipedia, and leave it to rot in the hands of  people who hate younger editors and defend the use of personal attacks and filthy language. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung|talk]]) 05:38, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
:::::::Re D: noted. Re my wording: Whoa. I was generalizing the options that appeared to be presented (we're not in conflict, so we should be able to work together: as such, do join project. If you feel we can't: maybe we should stop replying to each other in project space.) in a vaguely melodramatic-sci-fi way. Apologies for the whimsy. Didn't mean to offend or create an abomination. Glad you're not about to either, though-- this place needs as many constructive editors (and as few abominable constructs of ''any'' sort) as possible.

==Article Feedback Tool - notes and office hours==
Hey guys! Another month, another newsletter.

First off - the first bits of AFT5 are now deployed. As of early last week, the various different designs are deployed on 0.1 percent of articles, for a certain "bucket" of randomly-assigned readers. With the data flooding in from these, we were able to generate a big pool of comments for editors to categorise as "useful" or "not useful". This information will be used to work out which form is the "best" form, producing the most useful feedback and the least junk. Hopefully we'll have the data for you by the end of the week; I can't thank the editors who volunteered to hand-code enough; we wouldn't be where we are now without you.

All this useful information means we can move on to finalising the tool, and so we're holding an extra-important [[m:IRC office hours|office hours]] session on Friday, 6th January at 19:00 UTC in #wikimedia-office. If you can't make it, drop me a note and I'll be happy to provide logs so you can see what went on - if you can make it, but will turn up late, bear in mind that I'll be hanging around until 23:00 UTC to deal with latecomers :).

Things we'll be discussing include:
*The design of the feedback page, which will display all the feedback gathered through whichever form comes out on top.
*An expansion of the pool of articles which have AFT5 displayed, from 0.1 percent to 0.3 (which is what we were going to do initially anyway)
*An upcoming Request for Comment that will cover (amongst other things) who can access various features in the tool, such as the "hide" button.

If you can't make it to the session, all this stuff will be displayed on the talkpage soon after, so no worries ;). Hope to see you all there! Thanks,  [[User:Okeyes (WMF)|Okeyes (WMF)]] ([[User talk:Okeyes (WMF)|talk]]) 04:49, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Laura, John and I are having a bit of trouble finding information about him, especially related to his early career in New Zealand (see his [[Talk:Brian McNicholl|talk page]]).

==Article Feedback Tool - things to do==
Hey guys! A couple of highly important things to do over the next few weeks:
*We've opened a '''[[Wikipedia_talk:Article_Feedback_Tool/Version_5#Request_for_Comment|Request for Comment]]''' on several of the most important aspects of the tool, including who should be able to hide inappropriate comments. It will remain open until 20 January; I encourage everyone with an interest to take part :).
*A second round of [[Wikipedia:Article Feedback Tool/Version 5/Feedback evaluation|feedback categorisation]] will take place in a few weeks, so we can properly evaluate which design works the best and keeps all the junk out :P. All volunteers are welcome and desired; there may be foundation swag in it for you!

Hi Sonia, 
I wanted to leave you a note to say thank you for your help with my class. The students really valued your input and I think the project went really well. I also want to ask you if you'd be willing to serve as online ambassador for a course I'm teaching beginning March 26.  This would not involve commenting on drafts as in the last class as I want to try having online ambassadors only available for student questions/emails, rather than require students to submit a draft. In other words, it wouldn't be nearly as involved, but you would be available just in case students needed help. What do you think?

==help triage some feedback==
Hey guys.

I appreciate this isn't quite what you signed up for, but I figured as people who are already pretty good at evaluating whether material is useful or not useful through Special:NewPages, you might be interested :). Over the last few months we've been developing [[WP:AFT5|the new Article Feedback Tool]], which features a free text box. it is imperative that we work out in advance what proportion of feedback is useful or not so we can adjust the design accordingly and not overwhelm you with nonsense.

This is being done through the [[Wikipedia:Article Feedback Tool/Version 5/Feedback evaluation|Feedback Evaluation System]] (FES), a tool that lets editors run through a stream of comments, selecting their value and viability, so we know what type of design should be promoted or avoided. We're about to start a new round of evaluations, beginning with an [[m:IRC office hours|office hours]] session tomorrow at 18:00 UTC. If you'd like to help preemptively kill poor feedback, come along to #wikimedia-office and we'll show you how to use the tool. If you can't make it, send me an email at {{nospam|okeyes|wikimedia.org}} or drop a note on my talkpage, and I'm happy to give you a quick walkthrough in a one-on-one session :).

Hey, i saw your comment on my post. I just wanted to know how you make your own wiki? And also this game is only being made by me and it is going to take 17 months to complete, but all the links are good, and not bad. So how do you make your own wiki? Like Skyrim wiki or Minecraft wiki or something like that? Seeing as its a game i would like one. Also, ive heard of a server thing known as Bukkit and they havent been around for to long, and they have already got a Wiki. But anyway, i was just hoping i could have some help, and how could i improve my post?

Thanks, Bradley Arnold (Rappidz246)

:Hi. There are many places you can make a separate wiki, as in a separate website, like http://elderscrolls.wikia.com . I'd recommend [http://wikia.com Wikia], but I'm not hugely experienced with other wiki hosting sites—alternatively, if you're technically proficient and have your own server, setting up a wiki on your own server is something you can do. Wikia is easier and probably easier for other people to find though.
:If by "wiki" you mean a Wikipedia article, it really does need more references: Wikipedia doesn't go by how new things are, but by how famous or important they are. That is, if something has made the news widely and received a lot of attention, it generally will have an article; if something has been written about in many books or academic journals, it likewise generally will have an article. If your game has either of these, then these can be used as sources for the article about it. If not, it probably should not have an article. Please see [[WP:N|our notability guideline]] for more information, and [[WP:42|this quick page]] for info about reliable sources. 
:Finally, a useful page for you may be our [[WP:PSCOI|plain and simple guide to editing for editors who are linked to the articles they are writing about]].
