Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice edit

Hi,

As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.

We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.

You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

Re: Monica of Hippo edit

Well, I was wondering where the 'of Hippo' came from (there seems to be no special connection between Monica and Hippo other than it being her son's bishopric) and asked about it at Talk:Monica (Christian saint) about a week ago. As I got no response there and didn't find unambiguous sources myself referring to her other than simply as '(Saint) Mon(n)nica' (for instance the Prosopographie quoted), I decided to be bold and move the page. Maybe too rashly, I don't know. Is 'Monica of Hippo' a valid form? Iblardi (talk) 21:09, 12 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hail Mary edit

Hi, Two issues:

1. Thanks for adding the Catholic project templates to several pages I had started.

2. You just fixed a supposed typo on Hail Mary. Please be aware that the typo was caused by a known/blocked vandal User:Pionier who inflicts a large number of small damaging changes to pages - usually Christian or Jewish pages, and likes to remove category Jesus from pages. To see his style please see the edit history of Mother of God. I think those who edit Catholic pages need to be aware of these small changes. He/she assumes a new identity every few days. Please just look out for it, and when you notice it, post a message on the Admin Notice board so he can be blocked again. Thanks.

"chronological" lists of the saints edit

Thanks for your your contributions to saint pages.

FYI-- These chronological lists seem to have orgininated from a single editor entering infomation from a single published source (a book), with only occational updates from others to remove some obvious errors. The upshot of this is that if any other sourse (such as an English Wikipedia article) gives a death date or other infomation on the same saint (and not another by the same name) I would trust the other source over these chronological lists. --Carlaude:Talk 20:06, 6 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
