References for the Mars article[change source]
I've noticed your problem, and I've fixed it, but now there's a new issue. Can you please define what "Space-20120806" and "youtube1" are supposed to be? --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 01:47, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
- I wasn't talking about images. I was talking those two references that you inserted into the article. Can you please provide me with a hyperlink to those two sources? --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 13:08, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks. I fixed the rest. Commons has some images: commons:Category:Mars (planet), commons:Category:Curiosity rover. --Michaeldsuarez (talk) 12:52, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Kdammers. It looks like "Paweł Huelle" was derived from the English Wikipedia or another version of Wikipedia. If that is indeed the case, please make sure you add some form of attribution, either in your change summary or on the article's talk page. This must be done, even for derivative works, or the article will be deleted in time. More instructions on how to do this are at Wikipedia:Transwiki attribution. Thank you. Rus793 (talk) 14:49, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
- The notice you placed on Talk:Paweł Huelle does not comply with Wikipedia:Transwiki attribution and so would not prevent the article from being deleted for non-compliance. When you submitted this article, by clicking Save Page, not only did you consent to the agreement directly above it, you also claimed copyright on changes you made. Anyone copying this article for use elsewhere is required to credit you (and other contributors) for your work under the CC BY-SA 3.0 license. Likewise, you are required to credit (in an approved method) those authors whose work you copied here. So you must name the article you copied from and the version number. The approved ways to do this are in the Transwiki attribution policy. Thanks Rus793 (talk) 12:19, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
- Actually that is a completely acceptable attribution. The examples on that page are just examples on how you can do it. All that is required is a notice that it was copied from the English Wikipedia. -DJSasso (talk) 19:34, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

H. naledi needed[change source]
Homo naledi is an extinct species of hominin, provisionally assigned to the genus Homo. The fossil skeletons of at least fifteen individuals were discovered within the Dinaledi Chamber (Chamber of stars) of the Rising Star Cave system, which is located in the Cradle of Humankind, South Africa. The cave system is approximately 800 m (0.50 mi) southwest of Swartkrans (Afrikaans for “black cliff”), and within the same region as the well-known hominin-bearing sites of Sterkfontein (Afrikaans for “strong spring”) and Kromdraai (Afrikaans for “crooked turn”).[1][2] - from Wik/en intro.

Sign up for the new Wikipedia Library User Group![change source]
Hello TWL coordinators! After much contemplation and planning, The Wikipedia Library has decided to move forward its longtime desire of bringing together Wikipedians and librarians by creating a user group. The user group is yet to be recognized by the Affiliations Committee, but you are welcome to sign up as a member by adding your name in the user group meta page. Once you do that, please join the discussion in deciding the user group name, logo, and organizers. You can even volunteer to lead the group! And of course please don't forget to invite your community and friends! The user group intends to,
- provide guidance for Wikimedians engaging with libraries, and libraries engaging with Wikimedia,
- provide a venue for the exchange of ideas around collaborations and opportunities for Wikimedia and libraries,
- work with libraries and library information schools promoting the use of Wikipedia in their curriculum, and
- reach out to libraries that could potentially engage with Wikimedia.
Join us and help spread the news! Thank you, AVasanth (WMF) via, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 20:03, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

The Wikipedia Library – Global Coordinators Meeting
- The Wikipedia Library coordinators meeting is an opportunity for TWL branch coordinators to talk about various ideas, programs, problems, and events about TWL. We will have an agenda to cover at first, followed by an unconference-style discussion.

#1Lib1Ref from The Wikipedia Library[change source]
The Wikipedia Library – #1Lib1Ref
#1Lib1Ref, the annual campaign where librarians add references to improve Wikipedia, is coming back again this year, running from May 15th to June 5th, 2018.
- Why twice? We heard from you a desire to run it again out of excitement, because May is not summer vacation for the southern hemisphere, and because Spanish Wikipedia's birthday also falls in May. This is a great expansion of the event and it means that there is another opportunity to make Wikipedia more factual and verifiable by leveraging the expertise of librarians around the world.
- How does this relate to the main campaign in January? We encourage librarians, community members, and affiliates to make 1Lib1Ref their own. So whether we call this 1Lib1Ref May, 1Lib1Ref for the Southern Hemisphere, or 1Lib1Ref Strikes Back, the point is the excitement is building again, and we'd like you to be a part of it.
- If I participated in January, do I have to do it again in May? It's entirely up to you, this is just another chance if you want to do more, or if you couldn't get around to January activities. This is a pilot for us, too, so we'll see how it goes and discuss what we learned after the May campaign.
- How can you get involved?
- See updated dates and details at the meta 1Lib1Ref page
- See the Spanish Wikipedia campaign page for 1bib1ref
- Helpful multimedia (logos, videos, flyers, stickers) at Category:1lib1ref (commons)

From English Wik: Ze've Jabotinsky was editor of the revived Jewish weekly Rassvet (Dawn), published first in Berlin, then in Paris. Besides his journalistic work, he published novels under his previous pseudonym Altalena; his historical novel Samson Nazorei (Samson the Nazirite, 1927), set in Biblical times, describes Jabotinsky's ideal of an active, daring, warrior form of Jewish life. His novel Pyatero (The Five, written 1935, published 1936) has been described as "a work that probably has the truest claim to being the great Odessa novel... It contains poetic descriptions of early-twentieth-century Odessa, with nostalgia-tinged portraits of its streets and smells, its characters and passions."[27] Although it was little noticed at the time, it has received renewed appreciation for its literary qualities at the start of the twenty-first century, being reprinted in Russia and Ukraine and in 2005 translated into English (the first translation into a Western language).[28] -- and about The Five.

#1Lib1Ref May 2019[change source]
The Wikipedia Library – #1Lib1Ref
#1Lib1Ref, the annual campaign where librarians add references to improve Wikipedia, is back for another round, running from May 15th to June 5th, 2019.
- Not every part of the world is in sync, more particularly the southern and northern hemispheres. While the January version of the #1lib1ref campaign works well mostly for the northern hemisphere, it doesn't for the countries below the equator. Hence #1lib1ref May! This is a great expansion of the event and it means that there is another opportunity to make Wikipedia more factual and verifiable by leveraging the expertise of librarians around the world.
- While this campaign encourages participation from the southern hemisphere, we would love for you to join us even if you participated in the January campaign – after all, Wikipedia is only as strong as its references! So whether we call this 1Lib1Ref May, 1Lib1Ref for the Southern Hemisphere, or 1Lib1Ref Strikes Back, the point is the excitement is building again, and we'd like you to be a part of it.

#1Lib1Ref January 2020[change source]
The Wikipedia Library – #1Lib1Ref
#1Lib1Ref is happening again from January 15th through February 5th!
From January 15th to February 5th we will be joining together around the world to make Wikipedia more reliable. You can participate in #1Lib1Ref by simply adding a citation to Wikipedia's content!
That's all we ask and imagine: a world in which every librarian (or archivist, reference professional, and scholar) adds 1 more reference to Wikipedia. This is the fifth year of the #1Lib1Ref campaign and we couldn’t be more excited to support another year of activities.
- If you are planning to host a coffee hour or a edit-a-thon focused on #1Lib1Ref, and you need funding for the event, you will be able to apply for a Rapid Grant. For the best chance of approval, requests should be made in the month of November, since requests related to #1Lib1Ref will be given priority by the Grants team during November.
- You can make sure your contribution is counted by using the Program and Events Dashboard for your event, institution, or region, and using the #1Lib1Ref hashtag in your edit summary. Login to start a new event or join an existing one for the January campaign.
- You can join the 1Lib1Ref community via the Wikimedia & Libraries, and 1Lib1Ref mailing lists, or by joining the Wikimedia and Libraries User Group.
Full resources and guides for participating are available on the campaign page.
