On behalf of Wikipedia, I would like to welcome you to the community! My role as Wikipedia Ambassador serves to assist professors and editors working to incorporate the encyclopedia into the classroom. I would like to offer my assistance with any questions you may have with writing and editing, along with clarification and direction pertaining to community policies and guidelines. If you need a mentor, I can also help by recruiting an Ambassador to work with you on a one-on-one basis. Please consider me a resource and let me know how I can help. Best regards, Cind.amuse 23:15, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
Welcome!

Article review and assessment
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/Wikipedia-Ambassador-Program-Logo.png/100px-Wikipedia-Ambassador-Program-Logo.png)
It has come to the attention of several Ambassadors and mentors that some students are attempting to participate in official review and assessment of articles, primarily for Good Article status or in attempts to review the work of their classmates. Others are offering second opinions to an official review being performed by other editors. Unrequested second opinions oftentimes lead to disputes. While the enthusiasm and initiative is admirable, it is actually inappropriate for new or inexperienced editors to review or assess articles in any capacity. The Good Article process, review, and assessment requires thorough understanding of the project's policies and guidelines, specifically pertaining to the Manual of Style, verifiability, neutral point of view, and the ability to accurately identify copyright violations, reliable sources, and topical, as well as general notability guidelines. With all sincerity, please do not attempt to review or assess any articles. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to contact me either on my talk page or through email. Best regards, Cind.amuse (Cindy) 18:44, 31 July 2011 (UTC)

New 10,000 Challenge for Canada
[edit]Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada/The 10,000 Challenge is up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge for the UK which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. If you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Canada like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1600 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for Canada but fuelled by a contest such as The North America Destubathon to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. I would like some support from Canadian wikipedians here to get the Challenge off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile! Cheers. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:55, 22 November 2016 (UTC)
