From Today morning I am unable to upload logos. Each time there is a upload warning ''The upload directory (public) is not writable by the webserver.''
 +
Please help. [[User:Anaya|Anaya]]
 +
 +
Regarding the upload error, I'm having the same problem and we are trying to fix it. '''Please use my discussion page to ask me questions, not your own'''. This is because I am not notified when you write on your own page, only when you write on my discussion page; thus, I had no idea you were still having problems. Please place any problems you still have on my discussion page by clicking on my blue name link and then clicking the discussion tab. If this does not make sense email me at andrew[at]icannwiki.com [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]

==Categories==
 +
Hi Anaya, I have noticed that you have been creating categories for the industry a company belongs to. Please do not do this. We only categorize by place and whether the article is a person, company, organization, etc, as well as registries and registrars. Thanks. [[User:Caterina|Caterina]]
 +
 +
I have begun to supply you with replacements. There are still not enough, but I will add to the list soon. If a page has already been created, or if there is no information on the company then don't create the page (i.e. Dreyfus article). Some of the companies I've already given you may not have much information, it may mean that you can't create an article or that they are stubs (which we count as half an article). Let me know if you have any problems or questions. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
==Reminder==
 +
I've noticed that some of your articles have not been redirected from the .org site, please bear this in mind:
 +
 +
 +
==Forwarding Links & Wiping the Page==
 +
It is the writer's responsibility to wipe the old pages from icannwik.ORG and create links to the new icannwiki.COM. An example of this can be seen [http://icannwiki.org/Patrick_Kane here]. Explain in similar terms that the site is moving, that this particular article has been moved, and then point to it with a link. Something like: "'''ICANNWiki.org is being moved to ICANNWiki.com, this article has already been moved can can be found [(link) here]'''."
 +
 +
The wiped page should contain the disclaimer & link to the new site but it should also contain the category "ICANNWiki.com" (with that exact spelling and capitalization). As you know, the formatting for this is: <nowiki>[[Category:ICANNWiki.com]]</nowiki>. This is the only category that the wiped pages need, it should no longer contain a "People" or 'Company" category. This will help us to track our progress of moving over the old site.

 +
==Photo Uploader==
 +
Attn: The photo uploader is now working. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
==Duplicates==
 +
I'm trying to fix the duplicate problems today. It seems Webhosting.info was already written by another writer, I deleted this from your list (you had created the page but had yet to put in any text). Sorry for the inconvenience. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
==Sorry==
 +
I am reworking the assigned batches to eliminate duplicates. Sorry for the inconvenience, I will keep you updated as I make any significant changes to your assignment. If you don't have enough articles I am in the process of completing your list.[[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
==Almost done!==
 +
Thanks for your continued work and your updates via vWorker. The articles look good, I look forward to seeing your completed batch! [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
 +
Your editing is next in line, after I finish Marie's. I appreciate your patience during the editing process.

==Editing==
 +
Hi Anaya, I've begun editing your articles. I have noticed some problems with your referencing. I originally made note of them with the Computerwire article, but have noticed the problem seems to be universal. It is important that your citations are accurate. Please make sure that everything in your articles references back to the '''exact''' page that you originally got the information from. If this requires that you use more than one reference per paragraph, or even per sentence, so be it. But it is integral to the integrity of the site that all our information be appropriately cited. If you could go back through all of your articles and try to fix the references, that would be amazing. Thanks, [[User:Caterina|Caterina]]
 +
: Additionally, please try to avoid putting sources in the headers. A reference should come after the text it is citing.
 +
 +
Please pay attention to the specific remarks made on your user page, but I will also make some more general statements here (as Caterina has already done):
 +
* Services for registrars generally are unnecessary, as they are universal. You may have already gotten used to what these include (web hosting, transfers, email services, renewal, registration, etc.) Unless there is something truly unique in their service offerings, then don't bother mentioning them. Saying that they are an ICANN accredited registrar is enough. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
 +
Remember: It is important to enter the "under construction" image before or after the template you use, an editor will later remove this image as the article is approved. The formatting for this is: <nowiki>[[Image:UnderConstruction.png]]</nowiki>
 +
 +
 +
Those are our initials (Andrew M. and Caterina P.), that means the article is fine as is and needs no further editing. Those that have explanations next to them are the ones that need some extra work. Let me know if I can help further! [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
==Status?==
 +
I apologize but given all of our busyness associated with the ICANN Singapore meeting I've lost track of your status. Where are you in the editing process and when do you expect to finish? Is there anything unclear or any other help I can give?[[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
 +
So, am I correct to assume that all editing is complete an we can start anywhere on the list? If not, could you please mark the articles that are edited and awaiting final sign off by bolding your initials next to the article, or something to that effect. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
 +
I'm sorry for the delay, but I just finished editing other work. I will begin with your articles tomorrow. Thanks for your patience, and keep checking back in. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
 +
 +
I have finished editing and have identified a number of things that need to still be fixed. Please let me know when you have fixed these remaining issues. Thanks! [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
 +
Only one more problem left to fix! [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
 +
==Great!==
 +
Thanks for the great work, and the continued attention. Right now, we don't have another project we need completed, and we have our hands full. So while I won't be able to give you more work right away, I will keep you in mind for future projects. Please feel free to check back in with us in a little while, or we can otherwise contact you through vWorker should another project become available. Thanks again! [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]
