WikiProject Golf Newsletter

The WikiProject Golf Newsletter Issue IV - May 2007 If you would like to improve our future newsletters, go to our newsletter page.

Project News I am experimenting with a new layout for easy readability, as well as to make the newsletter look more attractive and more like other ones. If someone feels it could be better, go right ahead and change it. The newsletter page is right here. An assessment department has been set up. To find out how to assess an article, go to the assessment page. I have asked Snowolf if his bot could help in tagging articles. The response is still pending, but hopefully we will soon have more of an idea of how many articles we have. During the two months since the last newsletter, Annika Sorenstam has reached good article status. Congratulations to all who worked on this article. There has been a recent peer review for Jack Nicklaus. Please help by following the suggestions that are shown here. A new sidebar has been created. If you think it could be improved, go here.

Kent‎ FAC

Hi. I'm sorry to bother you, but as a Wikiproject Grammar member, I just wondered if you would be willing to have a look through the Kent‎ article. It is currently a Featured Article Candidate and needs a copy-edit for grammar by someone who hasn't yet seen it. Any other ways to improve the article would also be welcome. Thank you very much, if you can. Epbr123 10:53, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Golf

Hi Alexander Phipps
I thought that a way to further improve the golf articles on Wikipedia is for the whole project to work together towards a goal. An example of this could be a certain number of good articles in so many months, or to create the project's first ever featured article. If you are interested, come to the talk page and discuss it. And hopefully through this the project can continue to work towards several goals in the near future. Grover 10:00, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Editing Help

Hello Alexander,

I have written an article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manuel_de_la_torre_(golf_professional)

As you will see, a banner has been pasted at the top of the article that says I have problems. I have spent time trying to learn how to post to Wikipedia, I'm afraid the learning curve for me is a slow one.

Could you help me edit this? Could you fix it? Then I could learn from your fix.

Thanks Golfcoach (talk) 23:55, 2 January 2009 (UTC)Ed
