Greetings,
My name is John-Paul and I am a student with the University of Alberta specializing in Communications and Technology.
I would like to include your Wikipedia user page in a study I am doing about how people present themselves online. I am interested in whether people see themselves in different ways, online and offline. One of the things I am looking at is how contributors to Wikipedia present themselves to each other through their user pages. Would you consider letting me include your user page in my study?
With your consent, I will read and analyze your user page, and ask you five short questions about it that will take about ten to fifteen minutes to answer. I am looking at about twenty user pages belonging to twenty different people. I will be looking at all user pages together, looking for common threads in the way people introduce themselves to other Wikipedians.
I hope that my research will help answer questions about how people collaborate, work together, and share knowledge. If you are open to participating in this study, please reply to this message, on your User Talk page or on mine. I will provide you with a complete description of my research, which you can use to decide if you want to participate.
Thank-you,
John-Paul Mcvea

You are invited to the National Archives ExtravaSCANza, taking place every day next week from January 4–7, Wednesday to Saturday, in College Park, Maryland (Washington, DC metro area). Come help me cap off my stint as Wikipedian in Residence at the National Archives with one last success!
This will be a casual working event in which Wikipedians are getting together to scan interesting documents at the National Archives related to a different theme each day—currently: spaceflight, women's suffrage, Chile, and battleships—for use on Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons. The event is being held on multiple days, and in the evenings and weekend, so that as many locals and out-of-towners from nearby regions1 as possible can come. Please join us! Dominic·t 01:42, 30 December 2011 (UTC) 1 Wikipedians from DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Newark, New York City, and Pittsburgh have been invited. |
Hi. When you recently edited Holy anointing oil, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Calamus (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Dear Valley2city,
My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and
Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's
Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we
teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community,
and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what
you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community
[[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_82#Learn_to_be_a_Wikipedia_Administrator_-
_New_class_at_MSU|HERE]], where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my
students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training,
motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one
of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)

interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have
been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak
with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I
will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your
name HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be
more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Sincerely,
