Welcome! edit

Welcome to Wikipedia, EdwinCasadoBaez!

I hope you like it here and stick around. If you like, you can leave a note at Wikipedia:New user log to introduce yourself.

Before you start doing a lot of editing, you might want to take the Tutorial. It gives lots of basic information to help you to get oriented on Wikipedia.

You can sign your name on talk pages by using four tildes (" ~~~~ ") for your username and a timestamp. If you have any other questions about the project, then check out Wikipedia:Help or add a question to the Help desk. Alternately, you may choose to send a message to my talk page.

Happy editing!

Highways Of The Dominican Republic edit

A tag has been placed on Highways Of The Dominican Republic, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. If you plan to add more material to the article, I advise you to do so immediately. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Yuser31415 05:19, 16 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

rfa edit

To create an rfa, please follow the instructions at WP:GRFA. You have to create the page before you add it to WP:RFA. Please don't add it again until you've created it. Thanks. Picaroon 03:49, 23 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Please don't add your RfA attempt again until you have followed the instructions that Picaroon pointed you to above. I should warn you that an inability to follow the RfA instructions is taken by some contributors as a sign that you are not yet ready for the responsibilities of being an admin.

Tagged edit

A tag has been placed on Aster(Cable), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. John Reaves 08:05, 11 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please do the following:
  1. Place {{hangon}} on the page. Please do not remove any existing speedy deletion tag(s).
  2. Make your case on the article's talk page.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you. John Reaves 08:07, 11 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Notability edit

Notability guidelines for companies are at WP:CORP. The most important thing is finding outside sources. Has the company been covered in any newspapers or magazines? That would show its notability. NickelShoe (Talk) 20:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Your RfA - friendly, but firm, advice edit

Please please please, withdraw your RfA. You stand 0% chance of success so early in your time here; I'll be surprised if you get a single support !vote. All that you'll achieve is to make your chances of a successful RfA in, say, six to ten months, far less likely, as editors will view your actions now as a bad sign. I went through this yesterday with User:Foundby and it was awful. Please withdraw. --Dweller 09:34, 11 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

I regret to say that I have closed your RfA early as per WP:SNOW. I have included a summary of the opinions cast in my reason for doing so, which was essentially 'get some more experience before trying again'. You have been very brave in putting yourself in the spotlight here after so short a time of editing WP. Most people wait between six-to-twelve months before trying for an RfA and they are not alway successful either. Strategies for improving your profile for another RfA include:
  1. contributing effectively to articles. This includes finding references and citations for facts in reliable sources, something that is essential for an encyclopedia.
  2. Working on the Good Article Drive, Good Article Collaboration of the week and the Article Creation and Improvement Drive.
  3. Patrolling the New pages and Recent changes special pages for vandalism; tagging the pages according to the criteria for speedy deletion and warning the vandals.
  4. Reporting repeat vandals for admin intervention.
  5. Joining a Wikiproject or finding a portal on a subject in which you are interested and contributing through that.
  6. Assisting at the Help and Reference desks.
  7. Welcoming new users.
  8. Becoming adopted or, when you are more experienced, adopting new users to assist them in learning about Wikipedia.

These are just some of the ideas for making effective contributions to the project. You can also see Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia for more ideas. Regards and good editing, (aeropagitica) 14:32, 11 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Aster(Cable) edit

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Aster(Cable), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

License tagging for Image:TPro.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:TPro.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:3-alstom-metropolis.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, a non-profit website, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

Sorry about the quick speedy, but I'm not psychic. I base these things on what's there, not what's going to be there. What was there in the intial version was speedy-able due to language.

Santiago edit

EdwinCasadoBaez; en articulo de Santiago no combiene incluir Demographics y Government si no hay info disponible, ademas Demographics por lo general aplica a naciones, te puli un poco la data nuevamente. Voy a fucionar New and planned projects con Growth and Development si estas de acuerdo, es masomenos el mismo tema. Porque no incluir nuevas secciones como Culture: Music, Monuments, Festivals, Theatres y Night life y Arquitecture ya que hay algunas construcciones sobresalientes tengo entendido – y por ultimo, el "Infobox City" esta descuadrado, vos sabés corregir esto?

Hello, Edwin I saw your post on my comment page. I appreciate your compliments, but they don't belong to me. I have done some minor work on the Santiago de los Caballeros article, but far from a "great work". Those compliments belong to someone else. Anyway, I'm willing to strive for a "great work" of my own :-). Do you have anything in mind? I have a few pictures I took a couple of months ago... we could use some of those. We'll keep in touch on that topic. I'd really love to see a better article about "La Hidalga de los 30 Caballeros". Dominican 18:31, 23 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Santo Domingo Metro edit

Estimado EdwinCasadoBaez, muy bueno el Infobox Public transit aunque le haria los siguientes cambios:

Began operation significa que ya funciona, lo cambiaria a "Inauguration" Villa Melia no creo que sea necesario para un publico internacional y Daily Ridership le pondria "200.000 (projected)"

Y la categoria "Rapid transit in the Dominican Republic" no es necesario, la quitaria, la veo como vandalismo, esta persona ya hizo cambios en otras paginas ferroviarias en cuales algunos son inaceptables, la remplazaria con "Transportation in the Dominican Republic" como estaba antes, yo la coloque mientras tanto en See also – Moebiusuibeom-en 12:07, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey; Disactivated the Copyedit (See Discussion Santo Domingo Metro discussion: Copyedit). Tengamos cuidado entrando data mal escrita porque sino reactivan:

Response: Santo Domingo
Estimado EdwinCasadoBaez; SI, le voy a dar un vistazo al articulo de Santo Domingo, como te dije me interesan temas de índole urbanística, ferroviaria y ambiental.
En el Metro de Santo Domingo agregastes For Metropolitan Santo Domingo See Santo Domingo, NO ES NECESARIO, debajo de esa linea hay un link a Santo Domingo, ademas es un tema ferroviario. Lo mejor es dejar los articulos tranquilitos hasta que halla info concreta, las páginas ganadoras son las que menos interferencias tienen, las páginas minimalistas tambien obtienen credito, yo se que todos tenemos el impulso de estar modificando los articulos pero no se ve bien al menos que sean cambios concretos y de significancia, y a propósito, el mes que viene me doy una vueltita por tu patria, Saludos – Moebiusuibeom-en 01:10, 29 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Santo Domingo Article edit

Hola Edwin, article is well written, done extensive small corrections, I believe you should merge Ciudad Trujillo into article so we can eliminate infobox, the map of Santo Domingo Metro should be eliminated and used exclusively with the Santo Domingo Metro article, we may need a better image for (UNESCO Box) "Colonial City of Santo Domingo" and image: "A view of Santo Domingo" is terrible, I would eliminate this one, we need some additional high quality photos! Also a section on Music; “Merengue or Bachata” would not be a bad idea, witch is where internationally known by Juan Luis Guerra was born.

You may question changes I've done, let me know your thoughs! It still may need some polishing up!, Cheers – Moebiusuibeom-en 18:44, 7 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ciudad Colonial versus Zona Colonial District Article edit

  • Re-Rating??

um!!by the way did you re-rated the Articles of Zona Colonial (Ciudad Colonial) and Santo Domingo??? they seen to have the same rating as before because they had Start Class Already and i believe that the Santo Domingo article should be rated B-Class? shouldn't it?

Sorry, undid changes by User:Jwillbur, he re-assess ratings without consulting and underrated it, maybe vandalism or a simple mistake, ¡OjO!, have to be on the look out, didn't know that this occurred, check Talk:Ciudad Colonial (Santo Domingo).

Dominican Republic article edit

Hello, Edwin I've seen that the DR article doesn't have a neutral point of view, but worst of all, that several editors (which I think it is only one, two at most) make it look like we are vandals if we try to correct anything! It's going to take a loooong time to correct, but I think it can be done. We just need to do our homework, find better references than "hispaniola.com" and "stay cool", because if we don't, we might be considered the vandals. I suggest we start with the History section. What do you think? Dominican 05:25, 23 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

I think you're right. Let's try to get this article more balanced. I'll start searching for information in places other than the internet and at least a few references in Spanish. I'm thinking that the fact that none of the information is taken from sources written in Spanish (and, therefore, most probably not written in the DR) is biasing the article.

Image:Bunbury.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Bunbury.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Seraphimblade Talk to me 23:11, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

This incident was posted to the Wikipedia Administrators' Noticeboard for incidents.

On review, I think you clearly have violated WP:CIVIL and WP:NPA several times in the last several days. However, it also appears that you realized that, and have stopped on your own. I would like to commend you for realizing that and restraining yourself. Please be aware that our policies on discussion (see links above) staying polite are policy, and if you cause abuses in the future you will be warned, and possibly blocked if you do more serious abuses on a repeated basis. I don't see any reason to do anything right now, as long as you realize that you were going too far and don't do it again. Georgewilliamherbert 20:25, 25 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

You don't seem to have gotten the message, so I have blocked you for a week. Please try to contribute constructively and avoid namecalling people in the future.

If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 13:45, 5 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Liftarn 13:45, 5 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image (Image:METRO-RUTA.jpg) edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:METRO-RUTA.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 15:40, 20 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for Image:2ndFloorPlan.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:2ndFloorPlan.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 00:05, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Santo Domingo Metro edit

EdwinCasadoBaez; you have added very valuable info and images but, "with all due respect", you have to improve on the English and the way the article is expressed, remember that this is for an international viewer and we must place Santo Domingo high on top, you must have a native English speaking friend around!, and believe me, i myself go to great lengths to have my articles in either, Español or English (or other languages) be polished and professional! Un compatriota latinoamericano _ Moebiusuibeom 15:12, 12 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Furthermore, every place on earth that has an efficient public transportation system thrives, this metro will definitely jump start Santo Domingo into the future, believe me, when Chicago, Buenos Aires, London or Berlin put their systems to work, those cities had a chaotic transport system witch prevented progress, many people where unemployed, slums where around, an efficient transport system will change the fisionomy of the city for betterment, new jobs will come, change will be inevitable, Santo Domingo is prime for this type of transport system, Alstom and Siemens have been installing metro systems for over 100 years, they are pioneers, they know what they are doing.
The negatives of certain paragraphs in article could be canalized as Pros and Cons, please revise or symplfy, I may be able to polish it up later in week if you like. me podes contestarme en español, saludos _ Moebiusuibeom 15:50, 12 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hola compatriota. Has hecho muy buen trabajo y de manera extensa. Yo he creado varios articulos, pero ni una fraccion de los que tu: me desespero o me da pereza. Una cosa, solo para mejorarlo, el artículo del metro debería tener claras las fuentes. Cuando lo lei, me parecia todo tan optimista y bonito que pense que lo habria escrito uno de los contratistas que alli trabajan o de los funcionarios responsables. En se momento fue que entre al history y vi que tu eras el principal contribuyente. Incluye las referencias y fuentes antes de que los demas te crucifiquen. Cuyaya 09:50, 15 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Cap Cana edit

A tag has been placed on Cap Cana, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position.

Ten en cuenta que comienze servicio público en febrero o a mitad de año, todos estas mega construcciones se pueden atrasar, Ademas Began operation significa que ya comenzo a operar y no es cierto y trae confusión.






Cuando este funcionando y el publico "este comprando su boleto", la gráfica mencionada a la derecha se remplazarria con la que esta abajo>:

  Hello EdwinCasadoBaez! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 944 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

Speedy deletion nomination of Isaac Cespedes edit

 

A tag has been placed on Isaac Cespedes requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Zona Colonial 9.jpg edit

 
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Zona Colonial 9.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 13:14, 23 March 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. After Midnight 0001 13:14, 23 March 2010 (UTC)Reply


Images, permission, etc. edit

Essentially what you want to be doing is listed at WP:PERM - try replacing the deletion message {{OTRS-pending}} if the wording of that template is appropriate for your case. That should allow you sufficient time to get all the paperwork done. - Jarry1250 [Humorous? Discuss.] 18:11, 16 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

It can take a while (used to be 30 days max but they've been a bit backlogged recently). Have you added {{OTRS-pending}} ? That should give you the requisite time. Some of your other images are nominated for deletion for other reasons, e.g. you need to add a source. - Jarry1250 [Humorous? Discuss.] 14:22, 23 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Rita Indiana y los Misterios edit

 

A tag has been placed on Rita Indiana y los Misterios requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ttonyb (talk) 22:43, 28 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

NYC Meetup: Saturday, December 4 edit

 
We meet outside by the trees at 5:00 PM.

Our next Wikipedia NYC Meetup is this weekend on Saturday Dec 4 at Brooklyn Museum during their awesome First Saturdays program, starting at 5 PM.

A particular highlight for the wiki crowd will be 'Seductive Subversion: Women Pop Artists, 1958–1968', and the accompanying "WikiPop" project, with specially-created Wikipedia articles on the artists displayed on iPads in the gallery.

This will be a museum touring and partying meetup, so no excuses about being a shy newbie this time. Bring a friend too!

Columbia University Library edit

Dear Edwin! Is it possible to scan some pages from a script holding by Columbia University Library? I can't get this script anywhere here in Germany, so I am very hoping to get any help from you. Thank you very much for an assent or a reply. Greetings, Doc Taxon (talk) 18:03, 20 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

DR edit

I've moved all of the marker graphics to match File:DR-1 Highway Sign.png, and I've requested that the one on Commons get renamed to match. Once they're all one, that will allow the templates to work with the standardized names. Then we can set up {{infobox road}} and even {{jct}} to call the right graphic each time. We might look into creating SVG format graphics though. Do you have any good photos of how the signs look? If so, we could create the graphics in SVG format, which is far superior to PNG for these sorts of images. Imzadi 1979  15:27, 11 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

National Archives ExtravaSCANza edit

You are invited to the National Archives ExtravaSCANza, taking place every day next week from January 4–7, Wednesday to Saturday, in College Park, Maryland (Washington, DC metro area). Come help me cap off my stint as Wikipedian in Residence at the National Archives with one last success!

This will be a casual working event in which Wikipedians are getting together to scan interesting documents at the National Archives related to a different theme each day—currently: spaceflight, women's suffrage, Chile, and battleships—for use on Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons. The event is being held on multiple days, and in the evenings and weekend, so that as many locals and out-of-towners from nearby regions1 as possible can come. Please join us! Dominic·t 01:16, 30 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

1 Wikipedians from DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Newark, New York City, and Pittsburgh have been invited.
