Your draft article, Draft:Frances Colón edit
Hello, Webmz. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Frances Colón".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. G13 account of Linguist111 (talk) 17:01, 27 October 2017 (UTC)
Metropolitan Museum of Art Edit-a-thon (Nov 19) and global online Wikipedia Asian Art Month (Nov 1-30) edit
| Sunday November 19, 10:30 am - 4:00pm: Metropolitan Museum of Art Edit-a-thon | |
|---|---|
  The Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met will be the Metropolitan Museum of Art's second edit-a-thon, hosted on Sunday November 19, 2017 in the Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City. Following the first Met edit-a-thon in May 2017, the museum is excited to work with Wikipedia Asian Month for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of Asia. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely.
Attendees should bring their own laptops and power cords. Light snacks, drinks and cake will be provided. We also welcome remote participation for the global online Wikipedia Asian Art Month, running November 1-30. Thanks, and hope to see you at the museum, and/or as part of the online Wikipedia Asian Month contest!--Pharos (talk) 16:36, 1 November 2017 (UTC) | |

Event coordinator granted edit
After reviewing your request for the "eventcoordinator" permission, I have temporarily enabled the flag on your account until 2018-06-05. Keep in mind these things:
- The event coordinator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
- The event coordinator right allows you to temporarily add the "confirmed" permission to newly created accounts. You should not grant this for more than 10 days.
- The event coordinator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the event coordinator right will result in its removal by an administrator.
- Please note, if you were previously a member of the "account creator" group, your flag may have been converted to this new group.
If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the event coordinator right. Happy editing! TonyBallioni (talk) 22:00, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

Welcome! edit
Hello, Webmz, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)
In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms our use and policy on paid editing.
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- The plain and simple conflict of interest guide
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Simplified Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Hallo, thanks for your edits to Nita Forouhi. A couple of points:
- Please don't use American spellings like "Honors" when writing about a British topic
- You linked to University of Newcastle. That is a disambiguation page: her alma mater is Newcastle University. Please check all your links to make sure that they go where you expect. There is a very useful "gadget" which will show up in orange any links to disambiguation pages, which (except in hatnotes) are almost always a mistake. If you go to "Preferences", then "Gadgets" (or use this link), then look at the list "Appearance", you'll find "Display links to disambiguation pages in orange". Click its tick-box and then you'll see this useful orange colouring if you make a link to a disambiguation page. I find it very useful. Happy Editing! PamD 19:19, 17 November 2018 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for November 18 edit
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Nita Forouhi, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page University of Newcastle (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Redirects edit
Hallo, and thanks for all the articles you're creating. While doing some WP:NPP reviewing new redirects I found your redirect from Bethany L. Ehlmann, checked it out and couldn't see an "L" mentioned in the article except in one of the references. Googling around I traced her middle name as "List", so added that to the lead (it's conventional that the name there is the fullest version of the name), and created another redirect from Bethany List Ehlmann: did a "what links here" and found her in that version at Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Geoscience. Result! I'm a great believer in redirects, as people get listed under so many variations of their names, with formal recognitions - awards, AGU Fellowship lists etc - often using the full "Sunday" version of someone's name even if it's rarely used elsewhere. So the more redirects we create, the more chance there is of people finding the article by following links, and the less chance of some future editor carelessly creating a duplicate article under a different version of the name. Well done for at least creating the redirect you did, with the "L.": a lot of editors happily list bold alternate names in a lead sentence but don't think to create the redirects from pseudonyms, maiden/married names, etc! Happy Editing. PamD 11:10, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

| Thursday April 4 and Friday April 5: Translat-a-thon NYC 2019 @ LaGuardia Community College | |
 Translat-a-thon NYC 2019 @ LaGuardia Community College is hosting the second annual Wikipedia Translatathon! At this event on Thursday evening and during the day Friday this week, anyone from the public is invited to LaGuardia to join students, professors, and CUNY faculty in translating Wikipedia articles among any languages which attendees understand. Themes for this event include public health and the history of New York City. New York City has a large immigrant population and great diversity of speakers of various languages. Among all schools in New York City, LaGuardia has the highest percentage of immigrant students, the highest percentage of students who speak a language other than English as their first language, and the greatest representation of language diversity. It is a strength of LaGuardia that it can present "Wikipedia translatathons", which are Wikipedia translation events. | |

Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City. The museum is excited to work with Wikipedia Asian Month for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of Asia. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely. Asia Art Archive will host a sister event in Hong Kong next week.

Started a Wikiproject on Science Policy edit
Hi Webmz, I just wanted to let you know that the Wikiproject for Science Policy has been officially created! I thought you would be a great person to reach out to since we both participated in the NSPN Wikipedia Training through Wikiedu. It's still a little bare, but with your assistance, I believe that we can make it real nice. I started it based off of the template suggested in the Wikiproject, so any edits are always welcome. I could use help with developing our first goals as well, so any suggestions are welcome! Also, if you're interested in being a participant, please list yourself in the Wikiproject homepage under the section for participants. Lightning1115 (talk) 03:46, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
