Am wondering why the list of participants is chronological rather than Alphabetical? It's fine with me, although it is contrary to Virgoesque thinking ;-), I am curious as to why? Namaste... — DocOfSoc • Talk • 00:18, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unusual for most Wikipedia projects, we actually have both (and a few more). This project has an unusually high number of 'members' and the different lists help the coordinators to sort who is active, who is not, who probably joined because they thought they had to because they wrote or edited just one school article, and lots of other obscure statistical reasons, including making short lists for any targeted mass messaging. The only list that is of concern to the majority of members is the chronological one to which they add themselves. It's the only one that is by nature self-updating. It also allows us to welcome new members, and if necessary, offer them some help. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 06:17, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

OK Thanks! That makes a lot of sense. Namaste — DocOfSoc • Talk • 08:54, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Assistance please[edit]

Hello all,

I am working on a school page for Monsignor Paul Dwyer Catholic High School. I have also edited a few other Secondary Schools for the Durham District School Board. I have few questions. If anyone could answer them that would be very helpful.

1. Where is the best place to ask if I am doing something correct/incorrect on a school page? 2. I have a source about the history of the school, but it was researched and written by a former teacher of the school and I haven't been able to get in contact with her for her sources. Would this source be enough: Monsignor Paul Dwyer History Project? 3. Could I take that article and condense it into a couple paragraphs for the School wiki page?

Many thanks, MrKasprzak — Preceding unsigned comment added by MrKasprzak (talk • contribs) 00:28, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
