User:Isolani

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The strength of the isolani is its will to expand, Aaron Nimzowitch

Although I started out writing articles I am slowly turning into a cross-over between a wikignome and wikifairy. Although I still write articles most of my time is devoted to the Missing Articles Project. I also do some random-article sniping.

English Wikipedia

[edit]

I`m only really active on the English Wikipedia, I have some comatose accounts on both German and Dutch Wikipedia. I consider the English Wikipedia to be more lively and a lot less parochial than its continental counterparts.

To Do

[edit]

Work on the redlinks in the List of Balzan Prize Winners, import all articles from the Cath.Enc. starting with the letter A to Wikipedia, get a start on importing articles from the Jewish Encyclopedia. Also working on getting more articles on roman catholic dioceses online (with a little help from http://www.catholic-hierarchy.com)

I'm always on the lookout for sloppy spelling and dodgy grammar!

Also have taken upon me to rename all Bishopric of Xs to Diocese of X, I don`t know what got into me... This is going to take a while. Currently trying to disentangle Dioceses, Bishops, Bishoprics, Prince-Bishoprics and all the double redirects that is causing.

to remind myself: currently I`m working on the double redirects at

Archdiocese of Cologne, Archdiocese of Munich and Freising, Archdiocese of Bremen, Prince-Bishopric of Münster

completed renames: Diocese of Osnabrück, Prince-Bishopric of Osnabrück

Roman Catholic Bishops

[edit]

As a member of WikiProject Catholicism I wanted to inform you that some members of Wikipedia believe that most Roman Catholic Bishops do not merit an article on Wikipedia. Since I am unaware of a position on Wikipedia on this matter I decided to bring this to your attention. The three articles on bishops are up for AfD, they are: : John Joseph Nevins , René Henry Gracida , and Felipe de Jesus Estevez Callelinea 20:35, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
