Hello!

Hiya Nick, I just discovered your Wikipedia page so I thought I'd leave a message saying hey. Feel free to contact me on my talk page or by email for all things Wikiepdia.

:Thank you. --Ronz (talk) 15:05, 12 September 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for this work. I found https://twitter.com/mrnick/status/1031800539758116864 ↗ and I encourage you to continue adding Wikipedia-cited works to your institutional repository as well as links to those copies from Wikipedia articles. Your edits were probably subject to more discussion than usual because it was a busy time ↗ or because of links not going to PDFs directly ↗, but policies clearly support adding URLs of OA PDFs in existing citations. Let me know if you need more suggestions of DOIs to deposit ↗ or links to add with OAbot ↗'s help (there are currently 112 http://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk links in the queue). --Nemo 17:22, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Thanks Nemo, appreciate you taking the time to comment! I've been encouraged recently by the discussion around this issue https://wikimediafoundation.org/2018/08/20/how-many-wikipedia-references-are-available-to-read/

:I just noticed we're now over 700 articles with a link to eprints.whiterose.ac.uk, that's wonderful! I hope the repository keeps expanding its collection of green open access copies of works cited on Wikipedia. Nemo 14:15, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

::And good to have the dataset in Zenodo, but too bad for the XSLX format... a preservation and FLOSS-friendly ODT is always better, in my view! But just nitpicking.

Thank you

Thank you for the informative edit to the sewage ↗ article. I rather favor its initial placement in the ''Disposal'' section over its later placement in the ''Treatment'' section; although I think the concept might warrant an intermediate ''Reclamation'' section. What are your thoughts? Thewellman (talk) 18:02, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

| style="vertical-align:top; border:2px #007fff solid; padding:1em; width:45%; background:#ccf;"|

; Aims

After discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ in April 2008.

'''Specific aims''' for the project are:-

To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See below)

To recruit more active editors (See Member News)

To bring our top level article Yorkshire ↗ up to Featured article ↗ status

To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article ↗ status

To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive (See this month's feature below)

To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

and apropos of the above a '''2010 New Year''' article improvement drive/collaboration is being organised.

;'''Priority Articles'''

The '''top priority articles''' that have been identified to date are as follows -

Bradford ↗ • Doncaster ↗ • East Riding of Yorkshire ↗ • Henry Moore ↗ • Kingston upon Hull ↗ • Leeds ↗ • Northern England ↗ • North Yorkshire ↗ • Ripon ↗ • Sheffield ↗ • South Yorkshire ↗ • Wakefield ↗ • West Yorkshire ↗ • William Wilberforce ↗ • York ↗ • Yorkshire ↗ • Yorkshire and the Humber ↗

The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.

Please nominate future articles for improvement at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire ↗.

; '''Please bear in mind...'''

File:Imbox style.png ↗The project is subscribed to a '''clean-up listing''' ↗ which lists articles tagged with various clean-up tags that need attention. The listing is refreshed by a bot on a regular basis.

''Monitoring is essential''<br />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.

''Moves''<br />Please be careful when performing articles moves and ensure that you also move all the talk sub-pages and update any image fair use rational. Otherwise the archives, to-do lists, assessment comments and GA reviews get lost and the image may be deleted as it has an incorrect FUR. You will also have to check that the Commons link is set correctly.

;North Yorkshire
A note that there will be a major change coming up for North Yorkshire ↗ with the reorganisation of the local government of the area. This will see the abolition of the districts and North Yorkshire becoming a unitary authority taking on all of the responsibilities of the district councils. This will require a change to most articles relating to the area. If you have any thoughts on what needs doing then make them known at the project talk page ↗.

; Aims

After discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ in April 2008.

'''Specific aims''' for the project are:-

To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See below)

To recruit more active editors (See Member News)

To bring our top level article Yorkshire ↗ up to Featured article ↗ status

To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article ↗ status

To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive (See this month's feature below)

To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

Bradford ↗ • Doncaster ↗ • East Riding of Yorkshire ↗ • Henry Moore ↗ • Kingston upon Hull ↗ • Leeds ↗ • Northern England ↗ • North Yorkshire ↗ • Ripon ↗ • Sheffield ↗ • South Yorkshire ↗ • Wakefield ↗ • West Yorkshire ↗ • William Wilberforce ↗ • York ↗ • Yorkshire ↗ • Yorkshire and the Humber ↗

The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.

;Yorkshire Day
Happy Yorkshire Day ↗ to all the project members. I have selected the article as the start-class article for improvement for this month. So take a look at what is there and see if you can improve it.

Editing

Hallo Nick, Thanks for your edits to All Saints' Church, Harewood ↗, which I saw as it's on my watch list (I started the article many years ago, after singing in a wonderful come-and-sing rendition of a 40-part choral work there to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Redundant Churches Trust).

A few little points:

Please remember that refs go after punctuation, not before

Please remember not to use "curly" single or double quotes, even within quoted text (one of the few permitted changes to quoted text)

Please remember to give enough info in a reference so that someone could trace the article without clicking on the web link: I've upgraded your ref to the Dawson paper, as just "Proquest" was really inadequate.

Reference names don't need to be in quotes unless they include spaces, so I don't know why you added quotes to so many of them: unnecessary clutter. (I make a point of using hyphens rather than spaces in ref names, just to avoid the quotes)

Thanks, <span style="color: green">'''''Pam'''''</span><span style="color: brown">'''''D'''''</span> 15:39, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

:Thanks @PamD - just a few quick edits after a turn round the All Saints Graveyard this morning when out with the dog, I’m still a novice and not necessarily great at the detail!
:I knew the proquest reference was insufficient but was struggling to find the full reference.
:Don’t quite understand the last point? For references I tend to use the auto-generate feature…has that introduced quotes?
:Appreciate the pointers. The great thing about Wikipedia of course is that someone will come and tidy up after me 😀
:I’d love to go back and see inside sometime. Nick Sheppard (talk) 18:49, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
::"{{tq| someone will come and tidy up after me }}", of course, but ideally you shouldn't need the same tidying up too often! I see Keith D fixed another misplaced ref, or misplaced fullstop.
::I don't know what the "auto-generate feature" is, or why it would mess with existing reference names: do you use Visual Editor or text editing, I wonder? There are so many options and alternatives that we can all end up with a different editing environment.
::Note that all- numeric dates are allowed as an option for "access-date", but not when the article has an established style of using dmy dates for the access-date (as any article started by me will have, I don't like numeric dates).
::As for the Dawson ref, just put in the info you can see on screen. it doesn't seem to have a doi. If you really can't work out how to format a ref it's better to include a full but badly-formatted ref, rather than well-formatted but uninformative.
::There's a lot to learn about editing Wikipedia but it's an interesting journey. Enjoy your editing! <span style="color: green">'''''Pam'''''</span><span style="color: brown">'''''D'''''</span> 20:10, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
:::Always interesting to see people from Leeds Uni: I wrote the University Library's first web page in August 1994, during 26 years working there till early-retiring 20 years ago! <span style="color: green">'''''Pam'''''</span><span style="color: brown">'''''D'''''</span> 20:14, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
::::I mostly use visual editor with the 'cite' button which just creates a reference from a doi or web link. I do find wiki mark up tricky, I'm better with html! Would love to have seen that first webpage from 1994 :)
::::Confess I do tend to rely on the division of labour and that someone will be much more adept at formatting etc. I do need to get better though. Discussed a bit in this podcast with @MartinPoulter: The open knowledge revolution: contributing to the global commons with Wikimedian Dr Martin Poulter ↗
::::With Martin's support, we're doing a fair bit of work at UoL to promote Wikimedia, also see this podcast: Wikimedia Champions at the University of Leeds ↗
::::Do let me know if you'd like to know more, or even share your expertise as a former librarian from Leeds. Feel free to drop me an email n.sheppard(at)leeds.ac.uk Nick Sheppard (talk) 08:36, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
:::::{{reply to|MartinPoulter}} Can't even figure out how to tag Martin! Why didn't it work above? Nick Sheppard (talk) 08:41, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

;Article counts

The drop in the article count last month was caused by a BOT converting the assesments over for pages that had become redirects. Please remember that when you convert an existing article into a redirect to change the class rating to {{para|class|Redir}} and remove the importance rating from the project banner on the talk page.

In the area of GAs WP:YORKS ↗ at 216 is ahead of WP:GM ↗ who have 91. WP:YORKS ↗ also has the lead in FAs at 92 while WP:GM ↗ has 65 out of a total number of 4,871 articles.

A very big {{Thank you}} to all the editors who labour away quietly and help make this WikiProject what it is; no edit goes unnoticed.

To members who have added suggestions to the ToDo list at Yorkshire Portal ↗.

To the football and rugby editors who have done sterling work in keeping abreast of the top clubs.

To all the WikiProject Yorkshire editors who have been busy on vandal patrol at watchlist ↗.

To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See below)

;Happy Christmas
A Happy Christmas to all members of the project and thanks for all the work you have put in supporting articles relating to Yorkshire. The year saw much change, especially to the governance of North Yorkshire ↗ which became a unitary authority in April. This affected a large number of articles, but most of this has been done by those who are active. There is still many of the smaller settlements that need updating, so if you have time have a go at bringing them up to date.

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hello, OAnick. Thank you for your work on Pilgrims' Cross, Holcombe Moor ↗. Storye book, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process ↗, had the following comments:

{{Bq|1=Thank you for this interesting article. I have given it a minor copyedit, and added an infobox and commons category, plus a header paragraph. I have checked it for copyvio, and rephrased a few words to avoid that problem. I have also added a few links to it, in other articles, so that it is not an orphan, and added a few Wikiprojects to the talk page.

Looking at a past conversation on your talk page, I strongly recommend that you compare the changes that I have made, and learn from them. You still need to put references after punctuation, for example. That said, I am glad that you have created this article, and I look forward to seeing more articles from you.}}

Storye book (talk) 19:13, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

{{Re|Storye book}} Blimey, thanks for your work on Pilgrims’ Cross. Fascinating! Nick Sheppard (talk) 20:29, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Peel Monument (Ramsbottom)

:Thanks @Storye book I thought I'd got the reference thing tbh!
:I've also done a major rewrite (and rename) of this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peel_Monument_(Ramsbottom)
:It's the first rewrite I've done and not totally sure of the etiquette...the last previous edit was a year ago so just thought I'd go ahead. Let me know what you think (probably needs an infobox?)
:Have checked references after punctuation :) Nick Sheppard (talk) 19:48, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
:: I have done a quick copyedit of the Peel Monument article. There are a few issues remaining. One is that the header (opening para) is supposed to be a quick summary of the main body of the article. Therefore we don't put citations in the header; we repeat the information (with citations) in the body of the article.

::I always find it easiest when starting an article from scratch to first amass a pile of sources, then create the body of the article from that. Lastly I add the header as a summary. That way, I don't end up with any uncited paras, or a header which does not properly summarise the article. I also find that it is useful to insert the infobox form as early as possible, because it acts as a good prompt for research and inclusion of essential facts. Because starting with a pile of sources would not be well-received on WP, I always begin the article construction in userspace. Everybody has their own way of starting their article construction, of course; that is only one way, but it does help to prevent certain errors.

:: <s>Another issue is that you have some rather awkward, long sentences. They would make more sense if you changed the order of the material in them, or - even better - if you divided them into shorter sentences. Think about "which he had also built in 1832, when viewed from his home at Nuttall Hall". or "Built at a cost of £1000 raised through public appeal and standing 128 feet,[1][2] the gritstone used to construct the monument was quarried". Written in the right order, long sentences with great, overarching clauses, and an atom bomb at the end (so to speak), can be powerful - or witty. If you want to be in control of your long sentences, one of the best examples to imitate is Edward Gibbon's ''Decline and Fall''. On the other hand, short sentences can be powerful in another way, especially if you are piling on the facts, then ending with the main point. The main thing is to be in control. </s>

::If you want an infobox, Template:Infobox monument ↗ would fit. Good luck, and I look forward to seeing more articles from you. Storye book (talk) 22:17, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
::: I have now rephrased the abovementioned long sentences for you. I hope that helps. Storye book (talk) 10:27, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
::::Yes, thank you!
::::If you have time and inclination, you might have a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilson_Armistead which I've been working on for ages and which probably suffers from the same.
::::Think I've run out of online sources for Wilson but there's stuff in Special Collections at UoL I want to look at, and plan to visit the Leeds Library at some point.
::::Thanks again Nick Sheppard (talk) 10:32, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
::::: I just took a quick glance at the first half of the Wilson article, and the Standard English looks fine to me. I see you've already had {{u|PamD}} on there - it's always worth taking her edit summaries seriously, bearing in mind she is one of our best editors on the British articles. Storye book (talk) 12:20, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
::::: I'm not sure if you mean Leeds Central Library (public library next to Town Hall) or Leeds Library (private, -fee-paying library in Commercial Street). I guess you know all this already, but if you haven't been there - the indexing in Leeds Central Library is very good, and last time I was there it was the Business library which fronted the reference books, though there is also a Local Studies section - both upstairs. UoL has an excellent search engine for its books, but if you're not currently a member you need an appointment. But forgive me if you already know all this. Last time I was in Leeds Library (the private one), they had a wonderful collection and lovely staff, but no proper indexing, to the extent that they didn't really know what books they had, or didn't have. Sigh. Storye book (talk) 12:34, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
::::::Yes I mean https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leeds_Library where Wilson was a member and out of which he and his wife ran the Leeds Anti Slavery Association.
::::::I haven't spent much time at the Central Library tbh, I did go to an editathon there once and have a good contact there - I'd like to do more wiki stuff across Leeds, bringing together the University, library and museums. Everyone's so busy though! Nick Sheppard (talk) 12:44, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::I've found sources for Wilson through the Thoresby Society website, which I think is based at the Leeds Library. Really should get down there https://www.thoresby.org.uk/index.html Nick Sheppard (talk) 12:47, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::: Yes, they are a good bunch of people. I contributed to Leeds Tiger ↗ along with two museum archive people - that was quite exciting when they kindly opened the glass case so that I could photograph it. When I was in a phase of doing Victorian churches with their clergy, the Central Library staff used to bring all their Crockfords down on a trolley to the Business dept - really kind of them, as they were heavy to manhandle, like that (now there's a few Crockfords online, which helps). The LCL library ticket is really useful for their free online subscriptions, e.g. to Who's Who and various newspapers. Storye book (talk) 16:30, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::: That reminds me - if you are doing Holcombe Moor - you maybe have access to the Manchester library and museum? I'm just wondering if they have: Tracy, William Burnett (1901). Pike, W. T. (ed.). Vol. 2. ''Manchester and Salford at the Close of the Nineteenth Century.''' Brighton, Sussex: W. T. Pike & Co. (known as Pike Manchester). It's exactly the right date for our Rev. Henry Dowsett of Pilgrims' Cross fame - there might be a pic of him and short biog in there. Worth a try? He was a bit of a character - officially an Anglican priest, but a Puritan who tried to ban dancing, apparently. If you can't get at Pike Manchester, I'll try the British Library at Wetherby, when I can get there (a four-bus round trip and some walking ... ) Storye book (talk) 16:44, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::Unfortunately not…I grew up in Lancashire, about 3 miles from Holcombe Village. Could see the tower across the valley from my house 😀 Nick Sheppard (talk) 18:02, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::: Ah, then you'll know exactly how the country people would have all known each other for generations, and in 1901 they will have had a very good idea about who destroyed the Pilgrim's Cross foundation stone, and why. My guess is that they knew how fond of the stone Dowsett was, and he had upset somebody. Bearing in mind that he had been going around telling people off for dancing, I daresay there was no shortage of motivations. Local journalists always know, too, but local papers are always scared of publishing anything too controversial. Kick one and they all limp, haha. So we'll never know, but I bet they did. Storye book (talk) 18:18, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::::Good theory! I used to run up there past Pilgrims’ Cross - never did the fell race though - took my wife up there on one of our first dates, in Winter…2008. Perhaps surprisingly we’re still married. I’ve a picture of us sat on the stone, so it’s great to have such detailed history up on Wikipedia. Nick Sheppard (talk) 18:47, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::::: Fantastic! I've just discovered that Dowsett had a wife called Lydia Luce, from St Helier. I suspect that she had a lot to put up with, what with him stomping about on the moor doing antiquarian stuff with his mates, writing books and grumping about dancing, hehe. At least I suppose all that kept him out of her way. Storye book (talk) 19:15, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::::::I dug out the photo. The part of the inscription that’s visible is…unfortunate https://x.com/mrnick/status/1742983149079130441?s=46 Nick Sheppard (talk) 19:36, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::::::: Haha, good one! Another bit of good news is that I have just received a better scan of the cart-and-village photo. If you zoom in, you can just glimpse the ears of some of the 14 horses, the heavy iron cartwheels with chocks, and the nicely-dressed (antiquarians?) on the right. I guess Dowsett was behind the camera, because I'm betting that if he had had the chance he would have been strutting front-of-stage. I'll upload it in a little while, and use it to replace the current version in the article.

:::::::::::::: By the way, I've had a rethink about the whodunnit. The controversy about the requisition of land for the firing range started by 1901, and it would have been in the interest of pro-firing-range people to remove any monument which got in the way of their case. And it was local people who staffed the local Territorial Army. And that might explain why it would have been expedient for Dowsett to get an important-looking replacement up there pronto. Storye book (talk) 09:32, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Image is much better!

DYK for Pilgrims' Cross

:::::::::::::::Do you think we could do a DYK for this article? Nick Sheppard (talk) 15:16, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
::::::::::::::::So I think if I do a DYK nomination and mention you as reviewer, you'll automatically get credit?
::::::::::::::::Now just need a hook... Nick Sheppard (talk) 16:13, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

I've already got it in hand. I've done the QPQ, and thought of at least one hook - the 14 horses, which have really captured my imagination - though you're welcome to add other ALTs. The picture would of course be one of the monument ID pictures - possibly the one you initially chose for the article. You as creator, me as contributor and nominator - so we each get one DYK credit. The article is both new enough, long enough, and already has been expanded 5X, so we get to jump through all the hoops. If you had already set your heart on doing the nomination yourself, I apologise - If I do it I shall have to do it today, because I don't know if I'll be free to do it at the weekend, so may miss the 7-day slot. Just take it as me bagsying the time slot, and you are very welcome to change any other details. Hope that's OK? Storye book (talk) 16:41, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

:No that's great thanks! Nick Sheppard (talk) 16:45, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
:: Template:Did you know nominations/Pilgrims' Cross, Holcombe Moor ↗. Done. Thank you for your patience with this. As I said, please change the details and hook as you wish. At least we've bagged the time slot now. We don't yet have proper pictures of the horses, but I suspect that they exist. I have been given the info that Bury Archive has 5 pictures in the set (presumably four dated 24 May 1902 and one dated before 1901) titled: 1. Holcombe (the village pic that we have?), 2. Harcles Hill, 3. Moorbottom Road, 4. unloading new stone, 5. socket destroyed 1901 (possibly Henry Dowsett's pic that we have?).
:: Meanwhile, I have sent for a modern reprint of Pike Manchester and Pike Lancashire, in the hope that Dowsett might be in one of them. Even if he is not, I shall at least be able to upload the indexes to the W.T. Pike Commons category ↗, so that our editors can check out what is in there. One way or another, it should be useful.

There has been widespread adoption of circular economic models in agriculture which is essential to global food security and to help mitigate against climate changee, however there are also potential risks to human and environmental health from contaminants remaining in recycled water or organic material.

These risks can be mitigated by addressing three specific issues that will also depend on the local context. These are contaminant monitoring, collection, transport, and treatment, and regulation and policy. Nick Sheppard (talk) 14:07, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

Leeds Wikipedia meetup on Saturday 4th May

Hello there! Interested in having a chat with fellow Wikipedians? There's a meetup in '''Leeds''' on '''Saturday 4th May 2024''', at the Tiled Hall Café at Leeds Central Library ↗.

Full details here ↗.

You're receiving this one-off message as you're either a member of WikiProject Yorkshire ↗, you've expressed an interest in a previous Leeds meetup ↗ years ago, or (for about 4 of you), we've met :)

I plan to organise more in future, so if you'd like to be notified next time, please say so over on the meetup page ↗.

Please also invite any Wikimedia people you know (or have had wiki dealings with) – '''spread the word'''! Hope to see you there.

;'''General Election'''
This month will see the General Election ↗ take place with a raft of boundary changes for the constituencies, thanks to the boundary commission review ↗. A lot of work has been done on updating the constituency articles to cover the changes and new articles created for the new constituencies. Once results are in there will be changes to make to all of the candidate articles to show their new status as MP or not as the case may be. There will also be changes to make to the settlement articles to show the new MP and may be change the constituency if the boundary changes affect it.

; Aims

After discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ in April 2008.

'''Specific aims''' for the project are:-

To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See below)

To recruit more active editors (See Member News)

To bring our top level article Yorkshire ↗ up to Featured article ↗ status

To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article ↗ status

To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive (See this month's feature below)

To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

Bradford ↗ • Doncaster ↗ • East Riding of Yorkshire ↗ • Henry Moore ↗ • Kingston upon Hull ↗ • Leeds ↗ • Northern England ↗ • North Yorkshire ↗ • Ripon ↗ • Sheffield ↗ • South Yorkshire ↗ • Wakefield ↗ • West Yorkshire ↗ • William Wilberforce ↗ • York ↗ • Yorkshire ↗ • Yorkshire and the Humber ↗

The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.

; Aims

After discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ in April 2008.

'''Specific aims''' for the project are:-

To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See Assessment)

To recruit more active editors (See Member News)

To bring our top level article Yorkshire ↗ up to Featured article ↗ status

To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article ↗ status

To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive

To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

;'''Priority Articles'''

The '''top priority articles''' that have been identified to date are as follows -

Bradford ↗ • Doncaster ↗ • East Riding of Yorkshire ↗ • Henry Moore ↗ • Kingston upon Hull ↗ • Leeds ↗ • Northern England ↗ • North Yorkshire ↗ • Ripon ↗ • Sheffield ↗ • South Yorkshire ↗ • Wakefield ↗ • West Yorkshire ↗ • William Wilberforce ↗ • York ↗ • Yorkshire ↗ • Yorkshire and the Humber ↗

The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.

''Monitoring is essential''<br />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.

''Moves''<br />Please be careful when performing articles moves and ensure that you also move all the talk sub-pages and update any image fair use rational.

Welcome to the two hundred and twelfth WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ monthly newsletter.

Thanks to the contributions of our many members and supporters, WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ has become a leading local British WikiProject in terms of the total number of articles supported (up from 21,157 last month to 21,237 on 29 November 2025). In the area of GAs WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ at 241 is ahead of WikiProject Greater Manchester ↗ who have 89. WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ also has the lead in FAs at 99 while WikiProject Greater Manchester ↗ has 64 out of a total number of 5,361 articles.

To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See Assessment)

To recruit more active editors (See Member News)

To bring our top level article Yorkshire ↗ up to Featured article ↗ status

To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article ↗ status

To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive

To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

;'''Priority Articles'''

The '''top priority articles''' that have been identified to date are as follows -

Bradford ↗ • Doncaster ↗ • East Riding of Yorkshire ↗ • Henry Moore ↗ • Kingston upon Hull ↗ • Leeds ↗ • Northern England ↗ • North Yorkshire ↗ • Ripon ↗ • Sheffield ↗ • South Yorkshire ↗ • Wakefield ↗ • West Yorkshire ↗ • William Wilberforce ↗ • York ↗ • Yorkshire ↗ • Yorkshire and the Humber ↗

The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.

;'''Happy Christmas'''
It is the festive time of the year so a happy Christmas to all members of the project. At this time some of the regulars are away so it is more important that those who are available look out for vandalism on articles that are supported by the project. We need to guard all of the hard work of members, also keep an eye out for those article been nominated for deletion so none are lost unnecessarily.

; Aims

After discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ in April 2008.

'''Specific aims''' for the project are:-

To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See Assessment)

To recruit more active editors (See Member News)

To bring our top level article Yorkshire ↗ up to Featured article ↗ status

To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article ↗ status

To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive

To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

;'''Priority Articles'''

The '''top priority articles''' that have been identified to date are as follows -

Bradford ↗ • Doncaster ↗ • East Riding of Yorkshire ↗ • Henry Moore ↗ • Kingston upon Hull ↗ • Leeds ↗ • Northern England ↗ • North Yorkshire ↗ • Ripon ↗ • Sheffield ↗ • South Yorkshire ↗ • Wakefield ↗ • West Yorkshire ↗ • William Wilberforce ↗ • York ↗ • Yorkshire ↗ • Yorkshire and the Humber ↗

The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.

;'''Deprecating archive.today'''
Links to <code>archive.today</code> and other site from this family have been deprecated and are to be blacklisted as per this discussion ↗. Any articles that contain these sites as archives for web sites should be removed and replaced when you come across them. There is information on what to do at Wikipedia:archive.today guidance ↗. A quick search shows there are over 6,000 articles using <code>archive.today</code> links that include the word Yorkshire, not all will be relevant to the project but a sizable task, especially as some articles will contain a number of instances of these links. Would be worth conentrating on our featured and good articles first.

As a first off response to the situation, the cite templates are being changed this weekend to not display the links to these sites.

; Aims

After discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire ↗ in April 2008.

'''Specific aims''' for the project are:-

To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See Assessment)

To recruit more active editors (See Member News)

To bring our top level article Yorkshire ↗ up to Featured article ↗ status

To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article ↗ status

To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive

To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

;'''Priority Articles'''

The '''top priority articles''' that have been identified to date are as follows -

Bradford ↗ • Doncaster ↗ • East Riding of Yorkshire ↗ • Henry Moore ↗ • Kingston upon Hull ↗ • Leeds ↗ • Northern England ↗ • North Yorkshire ↗ • Ripon ↗ • Sheffield ↗ • South Yorkshire ↗ • Wakefield ↗ • West Yorkshire ↗ • William Wilberforce ↗ • York ↗ • Yorkshire ↗ • Yorkshire and the Humber ↗

The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.
