Saturday, March 5: Art+Feminism Edit-a-thon @ MoMA
| Saturday March 5, 10am-5pm: Art+Feminism Edit-a-thon @ MoMA | |
|---|---|
   You are invited to join us for the MoMA Art+Feminism edit-a-thon on Saturday, to support the expansion of Wikipedia's coverage of women in the arts. We encourage both people new to Wikipedia, and people who have experience editing online, or have joined us for past edit-a-thon events. This is by far our biggest event of the year (over 200 participants in the last edition), and every extra hand counts, so please join and volunteer to help us engage new communities!
And bring your interested friends and colleagues! For those outside of the city, or unable to join on Saturday, check out Art+Feminism regional and global events as well. --Pharos (talk) 21:48, 2 March 2016 (UTC) | |

March 2016
Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:U.S. Route 23 in Georgia, from its old location at User:DanTD/Sandbox/U.S. Route 23 in Georgia. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ (talk) 14:17, 10 March 2016 (UTC)

|---|---|
   You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community for our monthly "WikiWednesday" evening salon (7-9pm) and knowledge-sharing workshop at Babycastles gallery by 14th Street / Union Square in Manhattan. We will include a look at the organization and planning for our chapter, and expanding volunteer roles for both regular Wikipedia editors and new participants. We will also follow up on plans for recent (Art+Feminism!) and upcoming edit-a-thons, and other outreach activities. We welcome the participation of our friends from the Free Culture movement and from all educational and cultural institutions interested in developing free knowledge projects. We will also vote on nominations for the global Wikimedia Foundation board. After the main meeting, pizza/chicken/vegetables and refreshments and video games in the gallery!
We especially encourage folks to add your 5-minute lightning talks to our roster, and otherwise join in the "open space" experience! (One likely talk this month will be on the Wikidata project.) Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --Pharos (talk) 18:07, 10 March 2016 (UTC) | |

|---|---|
 You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community for our monthly "WikiWednesday" evening salon (7-9pm) and knowledge-sharing workshop at Babycastles gallery by 14th Street / Union Square in Manhattan. Special this month, a Mini-Video opportunity for individuals to share their Wikipedia experiences (during pre-meeting, 6-7pm, and in side-office during regular meetup). A videographer will be present to record 1-3 minute Mini-Videos of folks informally speaking, sharing anything about their Wikipedia-related projects, whether an edit-a-thon they joined, an article they edited, or a class project they were a part of, etc. We will also follow up on plans for recent (Art+Feminism!) and upcoming edit-a-thons, and other outreach activities. We welcome the participation of our friends from the Free Culture movement and from all educational and cultural institutions interested in developing free knowledge projects. We will also place our chapter's votes for the global Wikimedia Foundation board. After the main meeting, pizza/chicken/vegetables and refreshments and video games in the gallery!
We especially encourage folks to add your 5-minute lightning talks to our roster, and otherwise join in the "open space" experience! Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --Pharos (talk) 14:20, 6 April 2016 (UTC) | |

Infoboxes on scenic highway pages
Instead of copying and pasting the New Jersey infobox and changing the state, you should be looking at the other lists for these states. Your edit said that state highways in Colorado are named "Route X" and abbreviated "CO X", yet if you had looked, you'd have seen that they're "State Highway X" abbreviated "SH X". That's a bad error to make. Imzadi 1979 → 15:38, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
- Yeesh! Well, I tried to fix as much as I could. I just saw that I left the NJ X name behind in them and sought to get rid of that error, which is even worse. They all deserve infoboxes, though. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 15:45, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
Saturday April 30: Contemporary Art of the Middle East and North Africa @ Guggenheim
| Saturday April 30, 1-6pm: Contemporary Art of the Middle East and North Africa @ Guggenheim | |
|---|---|
 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.
Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --Pharos (talk) ~~~~~ | |

FYI... You created a redirect to itself. Bgwhite (talk) 08:19, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
- Yikes! Not the plan. I was getting a little bit ahead of myself, since I hope to reformat the Pasco County Road list. I just fixed it. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 12:56, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
