Hi Brianwc,
I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".
Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.
What you can do now:
Regards, Andrew Gradman talk/WP:Hornbook 04:35, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
Re: the Martin article. I was referring to pages 317-318 of the article (Section XII subpart B). Hartboy (talk) 03:11, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi Brian! I see that you already have a course page for your intellectual property law course. Instead of having two different pages with info about it, maybe we should just point from the public policy courses page straight to your main course page. I'm really excited to have you on board with this project, by the way. We'll be in touch more in the near future, I'm sure. Cheers --Sage Ross - Online Faciliator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 14:19, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi, Brian. Note this list of Wikipedians who can answer students' questions about getting started on Wikipedia, formatting, etc. I added this link to your class's resources page. All the best, -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:55, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi Brian!
Your students are getting active now, and I've seen a bunch of excellent work so far. I was wondering if you think it would be helpful to match up an Online Ambassador as a mentor to each of your students. Since now and the near future seems to be the most useful time for them to get feedback and formatting help, if you think it's a good idea, I could just assign an ambassador to each student. Cheers --Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 19:21, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi Brian! I see that you started a course page using the wizard, and also built a new page in your usual format. You're welcome to do as you wish, but since you have a pretty good system already, I'm not sure whether the wizard-built course page will help you much. Should I just list Wikipedia:WikiProject Intellectual Property law 2011 Berkeley as your class's page on the list of courses for this term? --Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 15:10, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
Hi! I signed on as an online ambassador for this class, before realizing that you're clearly very organized and running a tight ship. Is there any way in which I can help, if you're open to that? sonia♫ 04:00, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 15:04, 25 October 2011 (UTC)
Hey Brian, mind your caps! See WP:MOS and browse until you get to the capitalization rules for headings: only initial capital please. Later, Drmies (talk) 21:55, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
A file that you uploaded or altered, File:District-Arizona.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Hey, Brian. Thanks so much for updating the information about the students editing Wikipedia for your classroom assignment! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 20:29, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi. When you recently edited United States v. Cotterman, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fourth Amendment (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Wikipedia:WikiProject Cyberlaw 2009 Berkeley, a page you substantially contributed to, has been nominated for deletion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Cyberlaw 2009 Berkeley and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Wikipedia:WikiProject Cyberlaw 2009 Berkeley during the discussion but should not remove the miscellany for deletion template from the top of the page; such a removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 18:28, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
Much easier than you think.
Feel free to experiment in your user space, but the simple thing is to create a page un the same manner as you would an ordinary page, but using the naming convention of a slash between main and sub page. This creates a true sub page.
User:Brianwc/This is a subpage is an example
If you need more help than this, please feel free to ask.
Moving a page to a subpage is simple a matter of using that convention when you make the move Fiddle Faddle (talk) 17:53, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
If you find the page useful for yourself - best to simply move the page to User:Brianwc/Wikipedia:WikiProject Cyberlaw 2009 Berkeley.Moxy (talk) 22:52, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
If you have any advice for the talk page, or ideas for edits, please assist at WP:Assignments for student editors. Thanks so much! And thanks for all you've done for Wikipedia. Best. Biosthmors (talk) 22:24, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
Hi Brian - I know you're not teaching this semester, but I went ahead and gave you the +courseinstructor userright anyway. It'll let you create course pages using Special:Courses in future semesters if you feel like using the newfangled ones instead of how you've been doing it. (Unrelatedly, I'll be pinging you about some campus-related stuff by email at some point in the near future :)) Kevin Gorman (talk) 23:49, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
Haha I love the text of your new draft page. Totally heard it in your voice. Hope this semester is great! Yeah! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 18:24, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I wanted to let you know that the article Illinois v. Hemi Group LLC, an article your course worked on, passed a Good Article nomination. Cheers and Thanks, L235-Talk Ping when replying 17:13, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
You are invited! → Litquake Edit-a-thon → See you there! | |||||||||||

The Edit-a-thon will occur in parallel with Litquake, the San Francisco Bay Area's annual literature festival. Writers from all over the Bay Area and the world will be in town during the nine day festival, so the timing is just right for us to meetup and create/translate/expand/improve articles about literature and writers. All levels of Wikipedia editing experience are welcome. This event will include new editor training. RSVP →here←. --Rosiestep (talk) 02:48, 27 September 2014 (UTC) |
Hi. In response to your question on IRC, yes, there is a bot, User:CorenSearchBot that can search for copyright violations on demand(as well as all new articles). However, this tool is probably more accurate and allows you to find more detailed stats. Cheers, Happy editing, L235-Talk Ping when replying 02:50, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi Brian,
Just a heads up I had to tag a student's article for deletion as it looks like all of the text at Maritz, Inc. v. Cybergold, Inc. was copy/pasted from here. I copied the only usable content, the infobox, to Natcha.s's talk page along with the standard templates and a message. --— Rhododendrites talk \\ 20:34, 22 February 2015 (UTC) (btw: I'm also User:Ryan (Wiki Ed), but came across the page while editing in a volunteer capacity)
Hi, Brian. I just wanted to give you a head-up that the opinion in the case Jane Doe No. 14 v. Internet Brands, Inc., which one of your students created an article on, has been withdrawn by the Ninth Circuit, and will be re-argued in March. You may want to keep an eye on the news and the court and consider assigning (or suggesting; not sure how your course works) an update to the article when the new opinion issues.

Thank you for uploading File:Tennessee-eastern.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
