[edit] NYC Meetup: June 1, 2008

New York City Meetup


Next: Sunday June 1st, Columbia University area
Last: 3/16/2008
This box: view  talk  edit

In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, elect a board of directors, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects (see the last meeting's minutes).

We'll also review our recent Wikipedia Takes Manhattan event, and make preparations for our exciting successor Wiki Week bonanza, being planned with Columbia University students for September or October.

In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and (weather permitting) hold a late-night astronomy event at Columbia's telescopes.

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

Also, check out our regional US Wikimedia chapters blog Wiki Northeast (and we're open to guest posts).

[edit] RFA Page

I noticed you have an empty old RFA page at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Renata3. Do you plan on using it, or can it be deleted until you decide to run? MBisanz talk 20:34, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Suvalkija etc.

Could you link Suvalkija in the lead of Suwałki Region, and vice versa? I still think the articles should be merged. Do note that neither Polish nor Lithuanian wikis split those concepts.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 09:43, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] User:75.47.158.106.

This user, whom you recently blocked, is repeatedly inserting nonsense on their talk page, and reverting it again. Wouldn't it be possible to protect or semi-protect the page for a while? The ''Gorgeous Girl''!!! (talk) 04:15, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Reply:rewrite

I've reverted my image change, I'm too busy at the moment to design a new image. When time permits, I'll work on it. -- penubag  (talk) 08:26, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] ogonek letters

I did not elaborate on uses in other languages because I don't much about them, not because I'm biased. I did in fact made separate headings for Other Languages (leaving them blank so that people more knowledgeable than I could fill in) so I'm not trying to ignore them Since you're Lithuanian, maybe you could help with those sections?Karath (talk) 18:52, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Really unacceptable

You wrote
This is a completely empty threat. She did not post anything not already revealed on your own personal website and admitted by yourself on WP:COI noticeboard. Renata (talk) 21:00, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

  • I have no idea what the point was of posting my name on the article’s Talk page? What was that supposed to achieve? And why would a third party editor want to put me in an uncomfortable position like that? And what about that preposterous investigation that followed? My name had nothing to do with the article's subject. Naturally, not always do we want our Usernames to be listed with noncontroversial edits. Wiki identities similar to real identities can trigger emotional responses or even a needless exchange regardless of how innocent the new edits might be. Editing contentious articles riddled with POVs is bad enough so please give me some credit. --Poeticbent talk 03:10, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
From the delivered answers I did not found straight answer, are these IP's edits ([1][2] [3][4][5][6][7] [8][9][10] [11] [12][13][14][15][16] [17][18][19] [20][21][22] and subsequent ones are made by you, Poeticbent? The straight answer, yes or no, will do. M.K. (talk) 11:14, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
It seems this edit asked similar question, about four possible 3RR violations with IPs, asking "Should you, Poeticbent, deny that you were behind that IP range, please do so now rather than ignore or talk around it", which was answered with removal of the talk section without an answer. -- Matthead  Discuß   12:35, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Some insight

I do not know if you aware of it, but this needs additional insight and imput, M.K. (talk) 11:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)p.s. seems that this is Bloom, no? M.K. (talk) 11:37, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] My Editor Review

Thanks for your words of advice :). I do try and use non-templated messages to humanise wikipedia a bit (with the exception of vandals, who aren't worth the two seconds it takes to add the tag) and i've been working on creating articles related to Pure Reason Revolution, a band i'm particularly fond of, and will (as soon as exams are all done with) be creating pages for the Elizabeth Moon series "Vatta's War".

Regarding arv messages in relation to promotional things; thanks! not sarcastically; i was unaware of how to tag userpage material as promotional rather than simply the username. Do you know the procedure for doing so? CSD is all good, but a bit offensive and some material is difficult to categorise. MFD takes too long (although i have used it on occasion when editor consensus is needed to convince the page "owner" that it isn't worth keeping). Ironholds 07:23, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

They were listed as "open" but then came up as closed when i opened them to comment. What's the process for removing it from the "open" listing then? Ironholds 13:01, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Veldamas

Updated DYK query On 4 June 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Veldamas, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

[edit] Why are you removing useful maps?

The ones showing voivodeships location in the PLC? They are more useful than the maps showing their location in the lower-level entity (GDL) - although of course the articles should have both.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 11:32, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

I disagree. We have ample room for both maps, and PLC is at least as useful - for two centuries the voivodeships mattered as part of GDL in a bigger PLC. We don't show US states as part of North and South only... Of course in articles dealing only with GDL history, I'd agree that GDL maps may be more useful and PLC maps are not needed, but in the general voivodeship description, they certainly are. Also, when filling the infoboxes, please don't forget that those voivodeships were part of PLC (so they are not only "voivodeships of GDL" but "voivodeships of GDL and PLC").--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 11:50, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
Re:Image:IRPŻmudzkie.PNG - how so? And are we sure the borders have not changed at some point, and slightly different borders simply show different accurent times? Btw, please see my comment at Talk:Eldership of Samogitia. It was known as Eldership (Starostwo) only from 1413-1441, but for centuries afterwards (and earlier) it was a Duchy.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 12:50, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Любуцк

Lyubutsk now is a village (rural location) Lyubichi 55°01′45″N, 39°13′28″E in Lukhovitsky rayon of Moscow oblast, link to the village chirch page (in Russian)

Using Wikipedia:Romanization of Russian rules Любуцк would be Lyubutsk. Bogomolov.PL (talk) 06:21, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] GPA in Eastern Europe

Hi Renata! I just saw that you edited Talk:GPA in Central and Eastern Europe. I couldn't agree more, and that's why I have been standardizing all articles on this subject into the form "Academic grading in <Country Name>". See {{grading}} for a list of the ones I already created/moved.

I am writing you, though, to ask for your help in a more sensitive part of this process, after the renames and other maintenance edits. Please read the message I left Sredni vashtar here and if you are willing to help (I believe the Lithuania case might be the most interesting to you), please be bold! Cheers, Waldir talk 22:58, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] A req

Hi, could you plunder this? I also not sure that cat it should have. Cheers, M.K. (talk) 15:19, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the c/e. M.K. (talk) 10:04, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
