Hi Newyorkbrad. Could you have a look at the consensus (or the lack thereof) at this expired Rfc discussion and close it, please? The Rfc template was automatically removed yesterday; the Rfc did not seem to gain much traction, just to note.--Nevéselbert 23:10, 6 October 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for thinking of me. However, this particular RfC relates to templates, and to color choices within the templates. I know almost nothing about these matters, and I think it would be better if the closer were someone who does. Sorry, and regards, Newyorkbrad (talk) 23:44, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
OK, is there any user you recommend? Thanks anyway.--Nevéselbert 14:04, 7 October 2016 (UTC)
Any experienced uninvolved user can do it. This particular RfC is quite clear. Closed. --GRuban (talk) 14:37, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protect request

Hi, NYB. Haters Back Off is premiering on Netflix on Friday, and the L.A. press screening was last night. It has already begun to draw IP vandalism. Would you kindly semi-protect it, and also its subject, Miranda Sings, for a week. By then it should settle down a bit. Thanks for any help! -- Ssilvers (talk) 00:39, 13 October 2016 (UTC)

Saturday October 22, 10am: WikiArte Latin American Edit-a-thon @ MoMA

Join us for a full Saturday of social Wikipedia editing at the Museum of Modern Art (drop-in any time!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to the lives and works of Latin American artists.

The WikiArte (Wiki Arte y Cultura Latinoamerica) edit-a-thon is a global campaign to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Latin American arts and culture and to counter geocultural systemic bias on Wikipedia.

Featuring an opening Artists' Panel at 10am, with Sol Aramendi, Sharon Lee De La Cruz, and Marisa Morán Jahn, to be moderated by Rocío Aranda-Alvarado, curator at El Museo del Barrio.

The Museum of Modern Art and Fundacion Cisneros/Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros are uniting with international allies to focus on the lives and works of Latin American artists, architects and designers. With keystone events scheduled for October 22 in New York City and other cities throughout the month (Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Caracas, & others), the campaign aims to further similar goals to Art+Feminism.

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. Introductory training on the basics of Wikipedia editing will be given throughout the edit-a-thon. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand.

10:00am - 6:00pm at The Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Education and Research Building at MoMA, 4 West 54th Street (between 5th and 6th Avenue)
Please note that this entrance is one block north of the main 53rd Street entrance, closer to 5th Avenue

Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --Pharos (talk) 23:29, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
