I would use your "Wierd" userbox, because I am weird, but since you misspelled it I can't. Please fix it, or if the error was intentional, please make and release to the public a version with "weird" spelled correctly.

Thank you for the work you did on the military section. Nice job.

I was wondering if you would be interested in helping to finish up and refine the outline.

The things left to do include:

1. Filling in the blanks – some items have blanks that need to be filled, like with the President's name, etc.
2. Bluelink the redlinks – for many of the redlinked topics, coverage exists somewhere in sections of articles. Section redirects or section links with pipes can be used to complete the links.
3. Harvest relevant links (especially lists) from the encyclopedia – this can be done by
   • Searching ("intitle:" comes in handy for this)
   • Browsing articles, lists, categories, etc.
4. Fix the error in the reference section.
5. Flesh out the blatantly incomplete sections, such as the History section.

Any help you could provide would be most appreciated.The Transhumanist22:20, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your reply! I look forward to seeing your creativity upon the page. Yes, please, definitely keep in touch. Sincerely,The Transhumanist04:56, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed you are a participant of the WikiProject Quebec.

TheOutline of Quebec was created a few days ago and is under vigorous development. It fills a gap inWikipedia's set of outlines. It is the 3rd outline to date about a Canadian province/territory.

• Wikipedia Contents
  • Outlines
    • Outline of geography
      • Outline of North America
        • Outline of Canada
          • Outline of Alberta
          • Outline of British Columbia
          • Outline of Manitoba
          • Outline of New Brunswick
          • Outline of Newfoundland and Labrador
          • Outline of Nova Scotia
          • Outline of Ontario
          • Outline of Quebec
          • Outline of Prince Edward Island
          • Outline of Saskatchewan
          • Outline of the Northwest Territories
          • Outline of Nunavut
          • Outline of Yukon

Outlines form one of the subsystems ofWikipedia's contents navigation system. For more information on outlines, seeWikipedia:Outlines andWikipedia:WikiProject Outlines.

The goals for theOutline of Quebec is to complete it to as high a standard of quality as possible, and to make it even better than theOutline of Saskatchewan and theOutline of British Columbia.

Once theOutline of Quebec is completed, it will provide an important example to others creating outlines for the remaining provinces and territories of Canada.

Please take a look at the outline to see if you can notice (and fill in) any missing topics. Pictures would also be nice (the rarer and the more interesting, the better).

Thank you.

Sincerely,The Transhumanist10:38, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

P.S.: Offiikart, above is the request I sent to everybody in the Quebec WikiProject. I thought you might like to read it. I hope they will join in and help.

Offiikart, I'm glad you've joined up.

The project's goal is to build an outline for every major subject, while maintaining and improving those that already exist. This is a big undertaking.

But the benefits will be worth it. The outline system has the potential to become the best knowledge navigation tool in the world. Searches can take you only so far. A comprehensive map or table of contents of knowledge (which is what the outline system is when you hook all the outlines together) shows that which searches miss.

It's a wide-open territory, man. Since it is still in its infancy, we have the privilege of defining this thing. The core that we are developing will become the model that future participants shall base their work on.

So let's improve it so that it is ready when it achievescritical mass!

I look forward to working with you.

Sincerely,The Transhumanist09:21, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Salut,Ne t'en fait pas trop avec la liste des réservoirs et barrages. Utilise plutôtList of electrical generating stations in Quebec qui est complète et sourcée. Pour ce qui est de la sectionEnergy de l'articleQuebec, je l'ai arrangée le mois dernier. Je vais aller ajouter quelques détails dans cette section d'ici peu, mais si ton objectif est le GA, il faut se rappeler que les anglos préfèrent les articles plus courts que ce qu'on a sur fr. Alors, limitons la taille des sections (d'ailleurs l'articleQuébec est beaucoup trop long...)...

Pour aller plus loin, il faudrait créerEnergy in Quebec, mais ça, ça veut dire qu'il me faudra d'abord réviser mon articleÉnergie au Québec pour ensuite le traduire en anglais. Grosse job, surtout que je suis présentement surProjet de la Baie-James et tous les articles reliés (et éventuellement une version anglaise).

Enfin, je suis très content de savoir qu'on a un autre Québécois qui est prêt à travailler sur le thème Québec dans la WP en anglais. N'hésites pas à me contacter pour un petit coup de main.Bouchecl (talk)23:24, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Offiikart! I've noticed that your signature includes the Quebec flag. PerWP:SIG, images aren't allowed in signatures; would you mind not including it in the future? Thanks,Nikkimaria (talk)13:20, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Long time no see. I am very glad to see you are still active on Wikipedia.

I was wondering if I could talk you into adoptingOutline of Quebec as your maintenance and development project. Wikipedia's coverage of Quebec changes and grows, and the outline needs to be updated over time to keep up with it. Also, the outline is a work-in-progress (incomplete), and there is much room for improvement (such as adding missing links, pictures, etc.) For picture support, compare withOutline of Iceland,Outline of France, andOutline of Japan. Will you addOutline of Quebec to your watchlist and drop in on it from time to time to refine and maintain it? I believe you are the perfect person to care for Quebec's outline. I look forward to your reply.The Transhumanist18:41, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Trans, I would really love to answer yes to your question but im extremely busy in real life for now so I'm not really active on wiki. But, be sure that the two pages I check when logging in, even if its not often, areQuebec and theOutline of Quebec :) (and both are already on my WL). I'll take some time here and there to keep things right and up-to-date but I wont be a leader in this project as much as I was last summer. Thanks for thinking of me for this job! ^^

Well, that makes you the de facto main caretaker (I'm spread even thinner than you - across 534 outlines). Whatever effort you can muster is fine by me. By the way, there's a specific question I'd like to ask you... The religion portion ofOutline of Quebec#Culture of Quebec is mostly redlinks. Where is the relevant information to which we can provide piped links to? The corresponding Canada-level articles? Please take a look. Thank you. And as always, I look forward to your reply.The Transhumanist20:02, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I'll do my best. About the religious question, no, it is not a good idea to use the Canadian content to represent Quebec because it doesn't. Quebec is special on that question mostly because of two things :

• Quebec is a catholic province as opposed to the other provinces which are mostly protestant.
• Due to a lot of abuses, the Church in Quebec was pushed out of public institutions during the Quiet Revolution (60s'), was marginalised and criticized. A lot of people are still practicant but it is rare to make it public. This also explains the lack of information about this topic in wiki and my personnal lack of motivation to add it to Quebec-related topics.

ps. I saw the newest proposal for deletion of outlines and I went trough it. As always, I like pretty much the professionalism you show and the patience you have. Your writing skills are much appreciated to defend that important cause. I gave my vote (opposed) and refered to your comments as an explanation, is that ok for you? --Offiikart^Talk20:34, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't aware of that about Quebec. Interesting. Mostly, I was thinking about links like these:

• Religion in Quebec
  • Buddhism in Quebec
  • Christianity in Quebec
    • Anglican Diocese of Quebec
    • Roman Catholicism in Quebec
      • Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Quebec
      • Ursulines of Quebec
  • Hinduism in Quebec
  • Islam in Quebec
  • Judaism in Quebec
  • Sikhism in Quebec
• Irreligion in Quebec

Each of thex in Canada religion articles mention Quebec and usually give the population figures and where the main concentration of the religion's people in Quebec are. Judaism in Canada redirects to History of the Jews in Canada, which mentions Quebec, Quebec City, and Montreal several times. And Roman Catholicism in Canada mentions Quebec quite a bit.

Please select whichever of the links above you think have relevant-enough information, and add them to the outline (as you have time). Leave out whichever ones you feel are not helpful.

Thank you for your kind words concerning outlines. It's nice to know someone appreciates my efforts.

I look forward to your reply.The Transhumanist21:15, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I blued the global title "religion in quebec" using the "religion in canada" link which is interesting for all the stats, facts and comparisons between religions, etc. I deleted the other links which would all have led to the same canadian link on which one can compare the presence of all religions in quebec. Also, considering that religions in general and especially those that were listed do not cover "Quebec" specificity in a relevant way, I think it would be better to let this section like this. If I find articles (or parts) aboutCatholicism inQuebec (or articles on less relevant religions but really speaking about themwithin Quebec), I'll add them.

edit, also added your "irreligion in qc" link (interesting)Offiikart^Talk21:20, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nice. I've moved that branch of links to its own section, and have added some links.The Transhumanist21:42, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I did not understand your comment about:

• Buddhism in Quebec
• Hinduism in Quebec
• Islam in Quebec
• Judaism in Quebec
• Sikhism in Quebec

These links are all different pages, so I'm not sure what you meant. I look forward to your reply.The Transhumanist21:47, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My bad, I guess I went quickly on these pages and didn't look carefully. I like the way you placed religion-related topics in the outline. The other religions had their place there so I added all the links.Offiikart^Talk23:38, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What aboutRoman Catholicism in Quebec? Does that get specific enough? (By the way, I adjusted the tree just a little).The Transhumanist01:00, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please solve this mystery if you can...

On September 23rd, traffic toPortal:James Bond doubled, and has stayed at the new level since then. I can't figure out what happened.

Seehttp://stats.grok.se/en/201109/Portal%3AJames_Bond

Traffic toOutline of James Bond stayed the same (though it was at the higher-level already), which leads me to suspect changes made somewhere in Wikipedia.

Seehttp://stats.grok.se/en/201109/Outline%20of%20James_Bond

I'd like to find out what happened, in case it reveals helpful link placement tips that can double the traffic to outlines too!

I look forward to your reply.The Transhumanist22:39, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I can't determine the actual cause for that augmentation of traffic, the portal page itself wasn't modified in the last year and excepted for the upcoming 23rd movie, I see no news in James Bond's world that correlates with this affluence. The traffic has also augmented a bit on the James Bond article but not significantly compared to the augmentation seen on the portal. However, the augmention on the portal is notthat significant because even if it doubled, it only passed from ~40 to ~80 views which is not a lot and could possibly be due to a couple of people only who decided to re-start writing. Sorry for the lack of help =) Have a good wikitime!Offiikart^Talk23:57, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

But it is a significant proportion of increase. It doubled, whileJames Bond andOutline of James Bond stayed the same. And it stayed doubled. Even if the doubling was from a single change that increased it a mere 40 page views per day, it would be worthwhile to know what type of link placement tactic that was, because you might be able to multiply it. With multiple placement for a single page, 100 placements = 4,000 more page views per day. Or if the tactic can be applied to all outlines, at just one link per each, that's 533 x 40 page views per day = 21,320 more page views per day.I want that traffic!   :)  The Transhumanist00:11, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder, did anyone add new links leading to the portal? Is there an easy way to check this?The Transhumanist00:11, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please go toPortal:Contents/Outlines' and fill in as many missing annotations as you can, even if it's only one or two. Every little bit helps!

The annotating of the entries onPortal:Contents/Outlines is nearing completion.

Annotated entries look like this:

• Basketball – team sport in which two teams of five players try to score points by throwing or "shooting" a ball through the top of a basketball hoop while following a set of rules.
• Canoeing and kayaking – two closely related forms of watercraft paddling, involving manually propelling and navigating specialized boats called canoes and kayaks using a blade that is joined to a shaft, known as a paddle, in the water.
• Cricket – bat-and-ball team sport, the most popular form played on an oval-shaped outdoor arena known as a cricket field at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard (20.12 m) long pitch that is the focus of the game.
• Martial arts – extensive systems of codified practices and traditions of combat, practiced for a variety of reasons, including self-defense, competition, physical health and fitness, as well as mental and spiritual development.

Entries needing annotations look like this:

• Industry –
• Construction –
• Architecture –
• Machines –
• Industrial machinery –
• Robotics –
• Mining –

The links to the country outlines don't need annotations (they are listed by region).

Even if all you can do is one or two, the support will be greatly felt. Many hands make light work.

Hi Offiikart,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, thecurrent system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user groupNew Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - mostcurrent experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.
