January 2012[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Pizza Hut, makes articles harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Please don't change Book It to BOOK IT. Although that may be how it's written, its improper writing for an encyclopedia.

"BOOK IT! is how the title is trademarked...from an encyclopedic standpoint, wouldn't you want to have an accurate legal depiction of how it's supposed to be written? Anything else would be false information, right? The other information that you reverted was ALSO outdated and incorrect information." (JKetchersid (talk) 19:25, 25 January 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Wrong. As an encyclopedia of prose, content is written in normal prose form. That's a pretty standard idea in all sorts of written media, including other encyclopedias and news-services. But regardless of them or what you might think on your own, that's the long-standing and widely-supported consensus of how things are supposed to be here. Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Trademarks is very explicit about that. DMacks (talk) 19:43, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough.(JKetchersid (talk) 19:55, 25 January 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Pizza Hut. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. Cutecutecuteface2000 (Cutecuteface needs attention) 21:15, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Upcoming Wikimedia events in Missouri and Kansas![edit]

You're invited to 3 exciting events Wikipedians are planning in your region this June—a tour and meetup at the National Archives in Kansas City, and Wiknics in Wichita and St. Louis:

Kansas City: Saturday, June 16, starting at 9 a.m. — National Archives in Kansas City

This full-day event will include a tour of the facility; presentations from National Archives Wikipedian-in-Residence, Dominic McDevitt-Parks, and Exhibit Specialist, Dee Harris; and time in the research room to work on projects. The focus of the projects will be scanning, writing articles, transcribing, or categorizing images on Commons.

Wikipedians from St. Louis and elsewhere in the region are encouraged to make a day-trip of it and come to Kansas City for this special opportunity!

And two local editions of the Great American Wiknic, the "picnic anyone can edit." Come meet (and geek out with, if you want) your local Wikipedians in a laid-back atmosphere:

Wichita: Saturday, June 23, starting at 1 p.m. — Central Riverside Park

Join the 1st annual Wichita Wiknic: The Sunflower State blooms Free Knowledge!

St. Louis: Saturday, June 23, starting at 11 a.m. — Forest Park Visitors' Center

Join the 2nd annual St Louis Wiknic: The Gateway to the West is now The Gateway to the Wiki!
