I have assumed the Manager/Director duties of the Chicago WikiProject as well as the Coordinator duties for the CHICOTW and Assessment departments of the project. Here are current statistics for the project and a project log. This is how I allocate my wikipedia editing time Here is an interesting page edit count tool.


I have identified the following tasks as being in need of vast amounts of resources. Feel free to help.

Wikipedia:WikiProject_ Disambiguation - Organize human names
  1. identify human dabs with {{disamb}} tags (listed at Category:Disambiguation) instead of {{hndis}} tags and change them.
  2. identify {{hndis}} tags not piped to be alphebetized by last name first ({{hndis|surname, given name}} or {{hndis|name=surname, given name}}).
  3. identify human name (bio) articles not listed in Surname list and Surname dab articles.
  4. identify human name articles not listed in List of people by name
  5. set dab policy on primary topic rule as it relates to plurality vs. majority of desired search results
Wikipedia:WikiProject Categories/Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography - Organize Category:Families especially Category:Sports families
  1. Help fill in categories.
  2. Help determine a hierarchy for families by type (whole family, siblings, royal families, dynasties, father-son, granfather-father-son, siblings & children, cousins, uncle-nephew, etc.)
  3. Populate families by creating new groupings.
  4. Finish converting List_of_United_States_political_families to Category:Political families of the United States
  5. Also convert Political families by country: A-E, Political families by country: F-M, & Political families by country: N-Z to subcategories of Category:Political families by country
Wikipedia:WikiProject_Music - Translation
  1. Translate information (especially discographies) from Spanish Wikipedia for Celia Cruz (es), Marc Anthony (es), Tito Puente (es),etc. Where possible request original source of info. Otherwise clearly note transwiki translation and access date.
Wikipedia:WikiProject Business and Economics
  1. Add all Fortune 500, S&P 500, and NASDAQ 100 CEOs to List_of_business_leaders_in_2006 and List of chief executive officers
  2. Add articles on each of the above companies and their CEO and make stubs for each major brand.
  3. Create articles for each Forbes 400 member.
  4. Create articles for each of his/her ancestor who was important to his wealth accumulation.
Wikipedia:WikiProject Chicago/COTW Pictures needed

I believe these are the most needed images for our articles:

  1. Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea - branded coffee.
  2. Burnham Park (Chicago) - Italo Balbo Monument.
  3. Chicago beaches - Lots of beach pictures
  4. AT&T Corporate Center - Lobby photos (see what we are missing)
  5. Douglas Park (Chicago) - Flower Hall
  6. Chicago Blues Festival - any
  7. Arts Club of Chicago - staircase
  8. William W. Powers State Recreation Area - any
  9. Patrick Nash - any
  10. Jon Burge - any
  11. Toni Preckwinkle - any
  12. Vi Daley - any
  13. Peter Bynoe - any

Notes

  1. ^ Technically Jetpackfireman predated me at the incorrectly spelled page name. I.E., I created my Jesse White Tumbling Team page and then when attempting to create redirects noticed a Jessie [sic] White Tumblers page.
  2. ^ I only technically created this page. I was truly salvaging encyclopedic introductory information created by another editor from a category that failed WP:CFD.
  3. ^ I requested Seymour Knox be moved to Seymour H. Knox III to make way for dab page.
  4. ^ William Wrigley redirected to William Wrigley Jr until I redirected it to the dab I created, William Wrigley (disambiguation). The code was moved from my William Wrigley dab page to William Wrigley even though my name does not in the page history. Now my dab page merely redirects to this page.
  5. ^ moved Willie Johnson to Willie Johnson (guitarist) to make way for dab
  6. ^ moved Norman Johnson to Norman Johnson (mathematician) to make way for dab page
  7. ^ moved Samuel Ealy Johnson to Samuel Ealy Johnson, Jr. to make way for dab page
  8. ^ Samuel Curtis Johnson moved to Samuel Curtis Johnson, Jr.
  9. ^ moved Curt Johnson to Curt Johnson (soccer) to make way for dab
  10. ^ moved John Drake to John Drake (fictional character) to make way for dab
  11. ^ moved Pat Ryan to Pat Ryan (curler) to make way for dab
  12. ^ Breaking use to redirect to Breakdance. I created Breaking (disambiguation) and moved the redirect to point there. Later another editor moved pages around and placed the dab at Breaking
  13. ^ moved Marquette Building to Marquette Building (Detroit) to create the dab page.
  14. ^ moved Car Wash to Car Wash (film) to create the dab page.
  15. ^ As part of the December 27, 2006-January 3, 2007 Wikipedia:WikiProject Chicago Collaboration of the Week, I replaced Washington Park, Chicago (neighborhood) with a dab page and moved it.
  16. ^ As part of the January 10, 2007-January 17, 2007Wikipedia:WikiProject Chicago Collaboration of the Week, I moved Central Station (Chicago) to Central Station (Chicago terminal) to make way for a dab page.
  17. ^ moved Tremont House to Tremont House (Boston) to create the dab page.
  18. ^ moved Burnham Park to Burnham Park (Philippines) to create the dab page.
  19. ^ had been a redirect to Colony Club.
  20. ^ I created a Category named Painting Series. It has been replaced with a category named Painting series.
