[edit] Football Task Forces

Hi there! Basically if you find a page related to USA/Canada soccer, you need to put the following code onto the corresponding Talk page... {{Football|USA=yes}} or {{Football|Canada=yes}} . Sometimes they already have the Football tag in curly brackets so you just need to add |USA=yes (or Canada!).

(They actually do the same thing at the moment, just give different flags on the template)

If you want to work on current USA/Canada soccer pages, you can find a list in the links on the Task force page. They are ordered by quality (how much/how well written they are) and importance (how important they are to the coverage of soccer/football in Wikipedia). Let me know if you need any further help.

[edit] Esperanto Task Force

Hi, hope I can point you in the right direction - the main thing it looks like you're missing is to change the assessment template (in this case Template:WP conlangs) - check the football one at Template:Football. You need to put in extra code, which will add the Talk page to extra categories if Esperanto is specified. (You'll also need to create the categories).

I never got round to doing a nice tidy "How to Add a Taskforce", but you could take a look at my notes at User:Paulbrock/WP_Football_work/WP_Football_task_force - sorry it's not very clear! I'm not on WP much at the moment, but leave me a message if you need further help. Paulbrock 18:26, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] {{WP conlangs}} tags

Howdy.

I noticed that you recently made some changes to {{WP conlangs}} tags. You added Esperanto=yes but you removed the importance= or importance=Low (/Med/High/Top). Please don't do this.

Instead, add the Esperanto tag to the end, like so: {{WP conlangs|class=Start|importance=Low|needs-infobox=yes|Esperanto=yes}} - note the | - without removing other tags.

If you specifically INTEND to recategorize something that is already tagged for class or importance - e.g. change something from Low to Med or Start to B - please start a discussion about it at Wikipedia:WikiProject Constructed languages/Assessment#Assessment discussion. But don't just delete tags.

I would appreciate it if you go back and fix the tags you've changed, as it's a bit of a pain to find and change all of someone else's edits.

Thanks! Sai Emrys ¿? ✍ 21:02, 16 December 2007 (UTC)


Hello again. As you can see below, I've gone through and reworked the ETF assessment stuff you started. It should all work now automagically, huzzah and such. Also {{WP conlangs}} now actually uses importance correctly, tags correctly, tags ETF things properly, etc.
Enjoy. Sai Emrys ¿? ✍ 03:49, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WP Football US/Canada

Hi, TFCforever! Has there been any discussion about SatyrBot's tagging the project's articles? I took a quick look around the project's talk page, but didn't see anything. Could you point me in the direction? -- SatyrBot (talk) 01:32, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Infobox anthem

Hi, TFCforever, I just made some changes to the anthems infobox (see its talkpage for details). Any comments are welcome. — Kpalion(talk) 12:04, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm glad you like it and I can see you already started to update articles with the new infobox. I made two more changes to the template though: I made the English title optional (no need to list it twice if the native language is English) and I made it possible to include a sound file in the box. You can see how it works in God Save the Queen. — Kpalion(talk) 13:37, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Move request for Dąbrowski's Mazurka

Hi, since you work a lot on articles about national anthems, you may be interested in that Dąbrowski's Mazurka has been nominated again for a move to either Mazurek Dąbrowskiego or Poland Is Not Yet Lost. You are welcome to state your opinion at Talk:Dąbrowski's Mazurka#Requested move (second time). — Kpalion(talk) 23:45, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] USSR tagging

There appears to be something wrong with the way you are tagging USSR related article talk pages--mrg3105 (comms) ♠♥♦♣ 21:54, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I just use the templates, so can't offer advice. I thought you were using a bot due to the rapidity with which they were applied, so didn't pay much attention until I had to go to the talk of one. You may wan to talk to someone in bot requests to undo your tags, and get some assist on bot tag applications based on any articles in specific categories--mrg3105 (comms) ♠♥♦♣ 22:07, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] template might be fixed

The template is a little long and a little ugly (codewise) so I'm not positive everything is kosher, but I've fixed the obvious broken parts. Basically there are <noinclude> and </noinclude> tags that specify that the stuff in between them is not included when you use the {{template}} with the braces. The importance and class code was pasted strangely, splitting those tags in a broken way. I've fixed the noincludes on your sandbox, and used its talk page as a sample of the template usage (obviously it has too many categories on it right now, and user pages shouldn't have any categories at all, but I assume you'll blank everything once you are good). There are probably some categories that need creating, etc. but hopefully this will get you going again. JackSchmidt (talk) 01:39, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

No problem. You can see my changes amounted to almost nothing; I just moved a few noinclude tags. JackSchmidt (talk) 02:29, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
