Each week a Collaboration of the Week will be picked using this page. This is a specific topic which either has no article or a basic stub page, the aim being to have a featured-standard article by the end of the week, from widespread cooperative editing.

The project aims to fill gaps in Ireland Information Guide, to give users a focus and to give us all something to be proud of. Anyone can nominate an article and can vote for the nominated articles. Every Sunday, the votes are tallied, and the winner will be promoted for a week to potential contributors.

The current Collaboration of the Week is Livestock.

Previous winners can be found at History.
Removed nominations can be found at Removed.

Selecting the next Collaboration of the Week

The next winner will be selected on Sunday, September 5, 18:00 (UTC).

[edit]

Voting

Please vote for as many of the following candidates as you like. Please add only support votes. Opposing votes will not affect the result, as the winner is simply the one with the most support votes (see Approval voting).

Only registered users should vote.

To enter your votes, simply edit the appropriate sections by just inserting a new line with "# ~~~~". This will add your username and a time stamp in a new numbered list item.

[edit]

Tie-breakers

In case of a tie, voting will be extended for 24 hours. If there is still a tie, the candidate that was nominated first wins.

[edit]

Nominations

New nominations can be made at any time and should be added at the end of this page. Please use the template.

If the page you are nominating already exists, please add {{COTW}} to the top of its talk page. This expands to: Template:COTW

[edit]

Considerations for nominations

  • Please only nominate articles which don't currently exist or are stubs.
  • Giving reasons as to why an article should become the COTW may assist others in casting their vote.
  • Can the wider community easily contribute to the article? Or is it something only a small number of people will know about?
[edit]

Pruning

For pages nominated on or after 1 September 2004, the nomination will be moved to Removed if it has not received 5 votes after 7 days on the list, 10 votes after 14 days, 15 votes after 21 days, and so on. Previously, the pruning limit was 4 votes per week previously, and the old limit will continue to apply to pages nominated before 1 September 2004. Please see the talk page for discussion of this change in pruning policy.

  • Not much here on such a historically important individual. Could be a fun one too. - Taxman 16:51, Jul 21, 2004 (UTC)
  • More fun than Kofi Annan. ;) Neutrality 21:52, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Nice article, a lot of hardly known facts - Switisweti 10:00, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Article in need of some NPOVing. Sure, Attila ended up sacking Rome, but he wasn't quite the barbarian Western tradition has made him out to be. --Benc 03:39, Jul 24, 2004 (UTC)
  • Great topic, clearly in need of more content. Sam [Information Guide.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=User_talk:Sam_Spade&action=edit&section=new Spade (http://en.Ireland)] 22:33, 1 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • The article has been expanded rather substantially since being nominated. Not really a stub anymore, but there's still plenty more that could be added. Isomorphic 14:41, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    • Well the idea that a COTW article cannot win if it gets expanded after nominated seems a little strange. That leads to the idea that no editing should be done while being voted on, which is counterproductive. The simple solution is just to say they should meet the criteria when nominated, and editing during voting should be encouraged. After all the goal is great articles, not perfect policies. - Taxman 20:43, Aug 28, 2004 (UTC)
      • I don't think the issue is policy, but how much work is left to be done after the article is selected as the 'COTW'. We have the same problem with the current leader, Livestock. I think the {{COTW}} should be placed on the article, rather than the oft-ignored talkpage, to increase visibility. Hopefully, those editors interested in working on a particular candidate article will vote early and the article becomes the designated COTW sooner. Please comment on the COTW talk page. -- PFHLai 21:20, 2004 Aug 28 (UTC)
      • This issue has cropped up before... check out Ireland Information Guide talk:Collaboration of the week/Archive 1#Errr. Maybe the policy should mention this? OTOH, m:instruction creep is a very bad thing. • Benc • 14:46, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Comments:

  • Practically a stub, mostly taken up by a timeline of events. Needs much more background and historical information. Tom- 17:59, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Why are three sockpuppets involved in an AOTW vote? Ambi 07:48, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Does a red user page imply sockpuppet? In any event, Anyone can nominate an article and can vote for the nominated articles., and it passes the pruning threshold today anyway. -- ALoan (Talk) 11:55, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    • EastNile is almost definitely a sockpuppet, based on the edit history, and since when have anons been able to vote? I take back what I said about Felix Wan, however (the timing had made me somewhat suspicious). For that matter, I'm supporting this. It just makes me wonder when sockpuppets get involved. Ambi 12:40, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)
      • P.S. I'm not a sockpuppet. : ) Astudent 05:18, 2004 Aug 13 (UTC)
    • The 9th vote submitted at 18:07, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC) by 81.156.152.186 is probably a 'sockpuppet vote'. It should not be counted. Only registered users should vote, according to the rules above. -- PFHLai 18:09, 2004 Aug 28 (UTC)
  • It's just a big bulleted list! Gah. Definitely needs fixing. - Ta bu shi da yu 13:56, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • It's not a subject that interests me but those that wish to work on the article can draw on mercury program, gemini program, apollo program (very extensive) - all on the US side. Then for the Russians vostok programme (less extensive, but has links to the missions), Voskhod programme and soyuz programme. List of human spaceflights chronologically can be used to tie them together I guess. Easier said than done, I know... and what's lacking there is the political and cultural view of all the activity. --bodnotbod » .....TALKQuietly) 17:39, Aug 20, 2004 (UTC)
  • I already redid the timeline into paragraph form...now we just need research and expansion. — Ilγαηερ (Tαlκ) 17:36, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Some nice facts here, but it seems like a collection of facts here better beloning in the space exploration category or the articles on the individual programs. I think there's a good article to be written on the U.S.-Soviet competition, but this focuses more on their individual achievements than the competition itself.

    • The state of race relations in America is such that any race-related topic must be approached with great care and sensitivity, which has probably kept some potential authors from contributing. It's a shame that the article seems ready to jump off the rails due to the impending American election. Hopefully cooler heads will prevail and this article will end up primarily addressing the NAACP and not the current American election cycle. --DV 13:42, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)

  • Displaying my own interests a bit much, perhaps, but I was surprised to see that this was a red link. I may have missed some content, but surely there must be something to be said for warfare in the time of the Greeks, Persians, Madedonians, Romans, Iceni, Germans, Dacians, Parthians, Huns, Vandals. On the negative side, medieval warfare and siege were both quite recent. Renaissance warfare, early modern warfare and aerial warfare are also red, but I though this one was the most glaring omission. -- ALoan (Talk) 12:54, 11 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Given that films about ancient warfare are back in fashion in the cinema(Troy, Alexander, etc) it should be a topic of some interest. Average Earthman 09:46, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Oh yes, here's another fun one. Think of all that could be added: the changes in tactics (phalanx, cavalry, first use of strategic reserves) and weapons, and capsule descriptions of battles (Arbela, Cannae, Salamis, Chalons) and their significance. A great time could be had by all. Antandrus 01:45, 31 Aug 2004 (UTC)

  • This article is not a stub, so I don't know if it's really eligible for AotW. Also, shouldn't culture be separated into its nations (eg Culture of Spain and Russia above)?

  • A fascinating area. Article Genetic basis for homosexuality has already been written - there is alot to cover.
  • Would be an interesting article to write with a small number of collaborators, but dozens is just begging for a revert war. Normally I'm not evasive of controversial topics, but within the context of mass collaboration, I am. :-( • Benc • 20:06, 31 Aug 2004 (UTC)
