Your support means a lot to me, Brad. Thank you. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 22:03, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
@Cullen328: Thanks for the note. Supporting your RfA was one of the easiest decisions I've ever made on this project, and I am glad that hundreds of other Wikipedians agreed with me. And do you know what the best part is? Following the great success of your RfA, and your kindness in posting a talkpage note to each supporter ... after more than a decade, I am no longer on the hook for this! :)
Thanks again and best regards, Newyorkbrad (talk) 23:22, 23 July 2017 (UTC)

Sunday July 30: Action=History Wiki-Hackathon @ Ace Hotel

Sunday July 30: Action=History Wiki-Hackathon @ Ace Hotel

On the last Sunday of every month, the Boardroom at Ace Hotel New York hosts Action Equals History — a unique opportunity for New Yorkers to learn hands-on in a technology training/workshop session about the mechanics, practices and benefits of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia projects. This is an opportunity for all to gather, share and work collectively towards a more robust account of history.

For this month, we'll focus on Wikipedia casual editing, ways to use and develop Wikidata, building better edit-a-thon tools for a variety of different thematic campaigns, and user-testing them with the community. Towards a goal of advancing these tools for wider use with diverse local groups.

Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --Pharos (talk) 14:21, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
