From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Orion in The Book of Fixed Stars
The Book of Fixed Stars (Arabic: كتاب صور الكواكب kitāb suwar al-kawākib, literally The Book of the Shapes of Stars) is an astronomical text written by Abd al-Rahman al-Sufi (Azophi) around 964. Following the Graeco-Arabic translation movement in the 9th century AD, the book was written in Arabic, the common language for scholars across the vast Islamic territories, although the author himself was Persian. It was an attempt to create a synthesis of the comprehensive star catalogue in Ptolemy's Almagest (books VII and VIII) with the indigenous Arabic astronomical traditions on the constellations (notably the Arabic constellation system of the Anwā'). The original manuscript no longer survives as an autograph, however, the Book of Stars has survived in later-made copies. This image from the book shows the constellation of Orion, in mirror image as if on a celestial globe, and is from a copy in the Bodleian Library dated to the 12th century AD.Ilustration credit: Abd al-Rahman al-Sufi

Personalized Signatures

[edit]
Wikipedia:Signatures helped achieve this:

O MC 4/ π ≠ 2

Signatures must include at least one internal link to your user page, user talk page, or contributions page; this allows other editors easy access to your talk page and contributions log. The lack of such a link is widely viewed as obstructive.

O = Orschstaffer and links to Wikipedia:User:Orschstaffer where is found the Orschstaffer wikitable which navigates to everything Orschstaffer is (who am I?), everything Orschstaffer is doing (User:Orschstaffer/Schoolhouse), everywhere Orschstaffer might be found (Interwiki Orschstaffer).
M = Orschstaffer and links to Wikimedia:User:Orschstaffer where is found Orschstaffer research into the Wikimedia Foundation's Projects and such other things yet to be enlightened.
C = Orschstaffer and links to Wikiversity:User:Orschstaffer where is found Orschstaffer involved in College, and faithful fraternizer of the fraternity π≠2 which links to Wikimedia:Create room and w:User:Orschstaffer/Schoolhouse/CreateRoom.
4 = Quantum as in mechanics, theories, multipliers, personalities[citation needed], et. al., and links to Contributions.

Wikipedia:Good article criteria

D&RGW Loco #278 To format your article correctly (and expand it, and possibly even make it featured!):Bobber Caboose , see the following links

Also, make sure there are incoming links to the new article from other Wikipedia articles (click "What links here" in the toolbox) and that the new article is included in at least one appropriate category (see help:category). Otherwise it will be difficult for readers to find the article.

Others can freely contribute to the article when it has been saved. The creator does not have special rights to control the later content. See Wikipedia:Ownership of articles.

Additionally, before you get frustrated or offended about the way others modify or remove your contributions, see: Wikipedia:Don't be ashamed.

How to improve your writing

[edit]

User:Tony1/How to improve your writing

Compare two versions of a featured article

[edit]

A good way of focusing your efforts on improving your prose is to compare two versions of a featured article. Here's how to do this:

  • Look in the FA log for the featured-article candidacy discussion of an article that might interest you that was substantively criticised for failing Criterion 1a.
  • Note the date and time of the nomination (the first message in the discussion).
  • Click the title link to go to the article itself; do not read it.
  • Click the "Page history" link.
  • Locate the version that immediately preceded nomination. Click that link.
  • Read this old version of the article, carefully. Think of all the changes it needs. Better, click "Printable version" and go through a printout with a red pen.
  • Return to the "Page history" and use the "compare" function to compare that version with the version that was promoted to FA status. Compare your edits with those that were actually made during the FAC process.
  • Remember that you may be able to make the current version of that article even better; please do so if that is the case.

The Wikipedia article for the red eyed tree frog needs some attention. Therefore this Classroom Assignment will collaborate on the agalychnis callidryas, compare the two inter-wiki articles with each other (ru:agalychnis callidryas), observe and notate results for further Wikimedia Foundation Project involvements.
