Bad link, Daily Kos

Hi Bearian, Your two links in Mention on Daily Kos, derivative works, do not work. You may want to fix them. Cheers. PraeceptorIP (talk) 21:55, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, PraeceptorIP, I'm not going to bother to update dead links. People can search in the dailyKos.com archives. Thank you anyway. Bearian (talk) 21:11, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Jordan Fisher (February 3)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by LaMona was:
This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shamit Khemka

Hi. With this edit, you crossed out another user's "Keep". I think you must have meant to cross out your own. Bishonen | talk 20:04, 20 April 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Follow-up

When you changed your !vote from "keep" to "neutral", you struck out AusLondonder's !vote and not your own [1]... I assume this was accidental, so I've un-struck theirs and struck yours instead.[2] If I've made a mistake in my analysis of your intentions, feel free to fix it however best reflects your intentions! ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 21:14, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Just noticed Bishonen had already left a note above mine, apologies for the double message. :) ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 21:15, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

File:Monir Portrait-exh ph021.jpg

On Saturday April 30, 2016, in conjunction with a global campaign, the Guggenheim will host its fourth Wikipedia edit-a-thon — or, #guggathon — to enhance Wikipedia's coverage of modern and contemporary artists from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, and to counter geocultural systemic bias on Wikipedia.

The Guggenheim aims to further the goals of the Guggenheim UBS MAP Global Art Initiative, and build on the model of campaigns like the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at the Guggenheim: Women in Architecture, Wikipedia Asian Month, and Art+Feminism.

New and experienced editors are welcome. The event will include a training session for participants who are new to Wikipedia and Wikipedia specialists will be on hand to provide basic instruction and editing support.

Can’t join us in New York? Visit our global MENA Artists Month partnership page to coordinate international and online events as well.

Time: Presentation: 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm, Edit-a-thon: 2:30pm - 6:00pm
Location: Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, 1071 Fifth Avenue (88th Street), New York City, New York 10128
Guests should enter using the 88th Street entrance via the ramp at 88th Street and Fifth Avenue

Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --Pharos (talk) ~~~~~
