Size of Retraction Watch

Hi, how did you find the total size of the retractionwatch database? I've been looking of a current number but can't find it anywhere! T.Shafee(Evo&Evo) 05:03, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

@Evolution and evolvability:I am happy to hear that you an interested in the Retraction Watch Database. Last year a post on the Retraction Watch Blog celebrated their 20 000th entry to the database. To get the up to date number click the "search" button on the database search without entering any search criteria. It takes some time, but then displays: "600 Items Displayed Out of 24064 Item(s) Found". I hope that was helpful to you. Nuretok (talk) 19:29, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
Ah, champion - thank you! I'm looking to audit wikidata's coverage of retracted papers (discussion), so this is a useful benchmark. T.Shafee(Evo&Evo) 23:33, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

Energy Charter Treaty

Hello there. Curious to know if you examined the edit you just reverted? – . Thanks. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 16:32, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Yes, I don't think it would be a good idea (ever?) to revert something without looking at it. In this case your comment "citation link does not work" runs counter to "In general, do not delete cited information solely because the URL to the source does not work any longer." as explained in Misplaced Pages:Link rot. Additionally, after reverting it I replaced the dead link with a working one and tried to summarize the text as well as I could (but there probably is some room for improvement).

Rejuvenate WikiProject Skepticism

Hello - my name is Susan Gerbic (Sgerbic) and I'm writing to you because at some point you joined Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Skepticism. This might have been months ago - or even years ago. With the best of intentions the project was created years ago, and sadly like many WikiProjects has started to go dormant. A group of us are attempting to revitalize the Skepticism project, already we have begun to clean up the main page and I've just redone the participant page. No one is in charge of this project, it is member directed, which might have been the reason it almost went dormant. We are attempting to bring back conversations on the talk page and have two subprojects as well, in the hopes that it might spark involvement and a way of getting to know each other better. One was created several years ago but is very well organized and a lot of progress was made, Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Skepticism/Skeptical organisations in Europe. The other I created a couple weeks ago, it is very simple and has a silly name Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Skepticism/Skepticism Stub Sub-Project Project (SSSPP). This sub-project runs from March 1 to June 1, 2022. We are attempting to rewrite skepticism stubs and add them to this list. As you can see we have already made progress.

The reason I'm writing to you now is because we would love to have you come back to the project and become involved, either by working on one of the sub-projects, proposing your own (and managing it), or just hanging out on the talk page getting to know the other editors and maybe donate some of your wisdom to some of the conversations. As I said, no one is in charge, so if you have something in mind you would like to see done, please suggest it on the talk page and hopefully others will agree. Please add the project to your watchlist, update your personal user page showing you are a proud member of WikiProject Skepticism. And DIVE in, this is what the work list looks like frightening at first glance, but we have already started chipping away at it.

The Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Skepticism/Participants page has gone though a giant change - you may want to update your information. And of course if this project no longer interests you, please remove your name from the participant list, we would hate to see you go, but completely understand.

Thank you for your time, I hope to edit with you in the future.Sgerbic (talk) 07:32, 17 March 2022 (UTC)
