*Please always begin the article with the person's '''bolded''' name.

* It's more exciting to read when you don't repeat the person's name the same way over and over again. "Andrew Mack is __" ..."Andrew Mack did___"..."Andrew Mack founded ___" is too much of the full name. Try to use pronouns (He) and titles ("Mr. Mack") Along with their first name when appropriate.

* The stamps you often see on Linked In profiles don't nec. denote a real organization. For example,[http://www.linkedin.com/pub/frederic-donck/5/785/703 Fred], has a "linked ICANN" stamp, this is not an actual group but rather a social connection for the linked in site itself. These do not usually need to be used, unless it shows they participate in a real organization, like ICANN.

===What is "Stub"===

Hi Andrew! Thanks for the feedback, I may have forgotten to bold the name in some articles, will be more careful. Regarding the name, I will also make sure it will not repeat so much, you are right:)

However, I wanted to known what "Stub" is because I noticed you added for some articles? Thanks, Dana

Stub denotes an article that is short or otherwise lacking enough substance (no references). We are noticing there are more of these as we get close to finishing off the .org site. This time they will count towards your 50, but in the future we will be paying a lower rate for stubs. I will update you further before you start your next batch! [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]

Ok, I understand now. Even if there is little content I have to admit I spend at least half an hour for each person because I tried in every possible way to track down the person... Thanks for your answer. Dana

I have finished editing your batch. There are few issues with the articles, and I've marked out the areas that need correcting. Ignore the notes that say "photo?" and "unverifiable information". These are reminders for myself. Thanks for all the hard work! I can tell you really did try to find as much info as possible. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]

i Andrew! Glad you are satisfied with the work, then all the time spent it was worth it:) I will make the necessary changes as I will be away for the weekend. If after I make the changes there will be any other issues, I will fix them on Monday. Thanks for everything. Dana

Hi Andrew! I have made the necessary changes, please check them. If you could also talk to Ray to escrow the payment this weekend so that I could receive the money, it would be great. I will be off for the weekend. If there are any other changes required, I will make them on Monday. Thanks, Dana!

==Finishing==

I will be finishing up your recent batch today. There are no people articles to be moved from .org, if you are interested in another batch please be patient as we organize new projects.

Hi Andrew! Thank you for the articles, I received the list and will start working on them right away. I will get back to you if I encounter any issues with remembering how to work on the platform. Thank you, Dana!

== Batch 4 ==

Hi Andrew,

I have worked on the articles, finished 20, but did not publish them yet.

I have a few questions please help me so that I can organise my work:

- an article about Matt Serlin already existed. Do you want me to verify the information and remake it? Or, will you give me another topic instead?

- in the discussion we had on vWorker I said that I will provide the articles within 2 weeks time after I will receive the topics. This would mean that the deadline for the articles would be on Wednesday, 29th of February (2 weeks after the 15th) and on vworker the deadline is the 27th. Can I finish the work on Wednesday?

Thank you for your help! I will upload more articles today.

Best regards,

Dana

Ah, I just saw your reply on vworker. Thank you! Dana

==Under Construction==

Please make sure that EVERY page you are working on begins with an "under construction" image, do this by adding <nowiki>[[Image:UnderConstruction.png]]</nowiki> to the beginning of every article. Please do this for every article you have worked on thus far, thank you. [[User:Andrew|Andrew]]

==Batch 4 Update==

Hy Andrew. I have made the necessary modifications. Please let me know if there is anything else i need to change. Everything is going well and the articles will be ready before the deadline.

==Work Complete Batch 4==

Hy Andrew. I just wanted to let you know work is done. I've had some issues with the article regarding Tim Berners Lee. I have edited the text but when i save it part of it doesn't appear in the read mode. However when you click on edit, it is there. Please tell me how to mend it or what my mistake was. Hope you are satisfied with the work and if there are any problems please let me know.

Please remember that I am not notified when you write on your own discussion page, you must write on my page. Also, I'm just starting to edit but I want to stress that ICANNWiki is NOT ICANN, your article on Kevin Wilson shows him as an employee of ICANNWiki... there is a big difference there! Please stay posted as we will probably ask you to edit/add some things.

[[User:Andrew|Andrew]]

Here is a running list of other points:

* Please do not use our own website as a source, we generally insist on external sources

* We like to stay as neutral as possible, so there is no need to talk about someone's "accomplished" career or use any other adjectives that denote a value judgement.

* Please always do your best to rewrite the material and not copy and paste from any source.

* Please don't delete the empty lines/fields of the template that you do not fill out. If there is no text there the prompt will not appear in the final version. This way we can always easily add more information if one of the fields is blank and that information is found later.

* After implementing a reference, it is necessary to explain that reference while still in the brackets. So, it would be something like this <nowiki><ref>[www.reference.com One Space Then Explain, reference.com]</ref></nowiki> To show you that with a real site: <nowiki><ref>[http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/06/technology/as-new-ipad-debut-nears-some-see-decline-of-pcs.html?hp New iPad Debuts Some See Decline of PC, NYTimes.com]</ref></nowiki> iF you do not do this then the reference never appears named but instead is just a number, this way you know where the material is without clicking on the link.

* Categories are to be implemented at the bottom of the page, it seems you have not been adding <nowiki>[[Category:People]]</nowiki> to the bottom of people pages, and erroneously adding <nowiki>[[Category:Glossary]]</nowiki> to the bottom of company pages, which should have <nowiki>[[Category:Companies]]</nowiki>, registrars also get <nowiki>[[Category: Registrar]]</nowiki>. A list of all the categories can be seen [http://icannwiki.com/index.php/Category:Browse here]

* The companies you are working on are never Regional Internet Registries.

== ref for Domain Kiting ==

Hi Dana,

You created [[Domain Kiting]] with a reference which is now expired: [http://www.sans.org/security-resources/security_plus/domain_kiting_sp08.php Domain Kiting and Check Kiting]. Unfortunately the archive.org has no copy of that either. It is always good practice to make the archive load any page one intents to use as reference.

Is there any other page that could be used? --[[User_talk:Manorainjan|'''<span style="color: orange;">Manorainjan</span>''']] 09:07, 30 January 2017 (PST)
