NYC Wikipedia Meetup Sunday, March 21

In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, review the recent Wikipedia Day NYC, plan for the next stages of projects like Wikipedia at the Library and Lights Camera Wiki, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects, for example User:ScienceApologist will present on "climate change, alternative medicine, UFOs and Transcendental Meditation" (see the November meeting's minutes).

In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and generally enjoy ourselves and kick back. And if the weather is good, we'll have a star party with the telescopes on the roof of Pupin Hall!

You can add or remove your name from the New York City Meetups invite list at Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Invite list.

To keep up-to-date on local events, you can also join our mailing list.

AfD nomination of Adam Kontras

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Adam Kontras. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Adam Kontras (2nd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:11, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

Slang CfD

Well, if that was closed as a keep, you need to leave it lie for a while. At some point you can renominate them again and when you do, learn from what happened this time. That likely means present a smaller set of categories and clearer reasons or a better case, whatever you wish to call it, as to why they should be deleted. Another tack that you can try would be to create a list for these with details and references. If you do that and can show that significant numbers of the entries are not justified by the referenced list, then that could be another way to convince other users that the categories are a bad idea. Good luck. Vegaswikian (talk) 22:38, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

CfD tags

Also, the tags you added are still there on the individual categories and needs to be removed. They point to a discussion that's closed. --Bxj (talk) 19:38, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

It's not really my responsibility to remove them. I still think the categories should be deleted. If it's that important to you, be bold. —Gordon P. Hemsley→✉ 00:48, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

I didn't say who had to remove them, and of course I or anyone else can remove them, and there's no boldness required to do what isn't controversial. But the fact remains you're the one that added them and they've essentially expired their usefulness when the discussion closed. --Bxj (talk) 13:20, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Edit conflict with PotatoBot

Hi! Thanks for working on the list User:PotatoBot/Lists/ISO 639 log. Unfortunately, your edit conflicted with an update by the bot. I'm undoing your changes, but please feel free to re-do them in the updated list. Your edit is here. Thanks, --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 04:13, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Oh, that's because my browser crashed while I was in the middle of editing, and I waited too long to submit it. Thanks for letting me know. I've redone my edits. —Gordon P. Hemsley→✉ 05:02, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
