Invitation to Local Wikimania Event in San Francisco this Friday edit

Hi!

Wikimania is happening and hopefully you're enjoying the sessions. While it's fairly last minute, you're warmly invited to participate in the local Wikimania-themed meetup in the Wikimedia Foundation office this Friday (tomorrow!). You will have to register in advance, but we would love to see more people from the WikiSalon community participate! For more information and registration, please check out meta:Wikimania 2022/San Francisco Meetup.

The event will involve hacking, teaching, learning, and celebrating and we'll have snacks. We will have the opportunity to watch live sessions at Wikimania together in the afternoon. The rest of the day we'll have opportunity to participate in the hackathon, and we may have some on-demand workshops/learning sessions.

In case we run out of space, it's first-come-first-serve so let us know soon! Hope to see you there.

Very strong keep: The article needs to just have medical research information sources on the page. It addresses the fact there may or may not be known animals who have autism and furthermore the subject is controversial. If we can find strong and hard sources involving animal autism, the Wikipedia page will do much better. Finding the proper sources for articles like these would take time and effort. But please do not delete this Wikipedia page. Angela Kate Maureen Pears 18:45, 20 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Miss America 2025 moved to draftspace edit

Thanks for your contributions to Miss America 2025. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and this information may be useful for the general Miss America article but not necessarily its own article. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. ... discospinster talk 14:15, 22 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

Your submission at Articles for creation: Miss America 2025 (November 23) edit

 
Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Tagishsimon was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: maybe come back nearer the time.
