DYK for Vanderbilt Triple Palace
On 21 October 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Vanderbilt Triple Palace, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that William Henry Vanderbilt spent US$2 million on the lavishly designed Triple Palace, but his son found the decor unfashionable? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Vanderbilt Triple Palace. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Vanderbilt Triple Palace), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
Hey, ɱ
Greetings, User:ɱ. Was browsing the list of largest homes (ever) in the US and ran (again) into your photos of today's Sleepy Hollow CC (yesterday's Woodlea). Jeepers, you are the bomb as a photographer. Haven't run into you in a while at WP, so I just thought I would drop a hello and a nod toward the extraordinary work you do here. Yours, Wikiuser100 (talk) 22:12, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Invitation to take part in a survey about medical topics on Wikipedia
Dear fellow editor,
I am Piotr Konieczny, a sociologist of new media at Hanyang University (and User:Piotrus on Wikipedia). I would like to better understand Wikipedia's volunteers who edit medical topics, many associated with the WikiProject Medicine, and known to create some of the highest quality content on Wikipedia. I hope that the lessons I can learn from you that I will present to the academic audience will benefit both the WikiProject Medicine (improving your understanding of yourself and helping to promote it and attract new volunteers) and the wider world of medical volunteering and academia. Open access copy of the resulting research will be made available at WikiProject's Medicine upon the completion of the project.
All questions are optional. The survey is divided into 4 parts: 1 - Brief description of yourself; 2 - Questions about your volunteering; 3 - Questions about WikiProject Medicine and 4 - Questions about Wikipedia's coverage of medical topics.
Please note that by filling out this questionnaire, you consent to participate in this research. The survey is anonymous and all personal details relevant to your experience will be kept private and will not be transferred to any third party.
I appreciate your support of this research and thank you in advance for taking the time to participate and share your experiences! If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me at my Wikipedia user page or through my email listed on the survey page (or by Wikipedia email this user function).
The survey is accessible through the LINK HERE.

Associate Professor

- Novem Linguae:
- DetectSNG scans a list of 1,600 SNG keywords and displays them at the top of the article.
- NotSoFast highlights recently created articles in the new pages feed, to discourage patrolling them too quickly.
- UserRightsDiff concisely displays what perm was added or removed when viewing Special:UserRights.

- generate pings generates the wikitext needed to ping all members of a category, up to 50 editors (the limit defined by MediaWiki).
- share ExpandTemplates url allows for easy sharing of your inputs to Special:ExpandTemplates. It adds a button that, when clicked, copies a shareable URL to your exact invocation of the page, like this. Other editors do not need to have this script installed in order to access the URL generated.
- show tag names shows the real names of tags next to their display names in places such as page revision histories or the watchlist.
- Tol:
- VisualEditor Citation Needed adds a button (under "Insert") in VisualEditor to add a {{citation needed}} tag.
- Venkat TL:
- ColourContrib color-codes the user contributions page so that pages you've edited last are sharply distinguished from pages where another editor was the last to edit the page.
- Vukky:
- StatusChanger is a fork of Enterprisey's Status Changer, which adds a UI to the script. (using Morebits, so you'll need to have Twinkle enabled to use it).
All in all, some very neat scripts were written in these last few months. Hoping to see many more in the next issue -- drop us a line on the talk page if you've been writing (or seeing) anything cool and good. Filling in for DannyS712, this has been jp×g. Take care, and merry Christmas! jp×g 07:30, 24 December 2021 (UTC)

Portal
Sorry to see that the Briarcliff Manor, New York portal was deleted. For what it's worth, I tried to modernize the portal and I expanded it, but you reverted all of my work. Then at MfD, comments occurred such as, "no maintenance", "the "maintainer" has not made any changes to this portal other than reverting others' edits in over a year" and "I'm not really seeing the reason for this portal's continued existence". Now it's gone. Perhaps in the future, please consider allowing other users to make improvements that would at least theoretically prevent deletion, and more importantly, expand the content that a page presents to encourage readership. Sorry, and this isn't meant to be a sort of "I told you so" message, but I remember performing the work, you reverted all of it, and now the portal is deleted in entirety.

Regarding Linden Reversion
Hi Ɱ, I am curious about the reversion of my edit you made to the Development section of the Linden, OH article. In your edit you stated that the date I added to the beginning of the section was unclear, however the cited source is marked as published on 21.05.2018. You also state that you wish to make it clear that the policy described is still in effect, to which I agree. The reason I made the edit was because when first reading the article, I had to refer to the source to find when the policy went into effect - and I wanted to present that information forthright to other readers instead of forcing them to the sources to find the date of publication. I would propose that we could include the year of publication and supplement that with the fact that the legislation is still in effect in 2022. Thanks for your many contributions to the article! Hakudama (talk) 23:55, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
- The map was published in 2018, nothing else. The CRA was created in 2002, I just found. Will add. ɱ (talk) 15:34, 1 April 2022 (UTC)
Park maps
The custom maps for Columbus parks are so cool! Hopefully someone can do the same for Portland one day.
Hope you're doing well, and happy editing! ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:18, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Another Believer:, thanks! I realized in making maps automatic for parks, I created duplicates for these articles. I appreciate the work you've done for Portland, in a few ways I am not adept to mirror some of the work you've done! ɱ (talk) 21:33, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

 The LuEsther T. Mertz Library of the New York Botanical Garden and the Environment of New York City Task Force invite the general public of all experience levels to come to the Mertz Library in person and learn how to use Wikipedia! All skill levels welcome at the event! Experienced Wikipedia editors from the Wikimedia New York City chapter will be in attendance and available to help. A one hour training session will be offered at the start of this event covering introductory topics. Attendees familiar with editing Wikipedia can edit off of a worklist focused on the environment of New York City; as well as, a sub-list focused on the environment of the Bronx. The Mertz Library will pull topical media from their collection to assist the editing. --Wikimedia New York City Team via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 18:08, 1 June 2022 (UTC) (You can subscribe/unsubscribe from future notifications for NYC-area events by adding or removing your name from this list.) | |

Your draft article, Draft:The Met Fifth Avenue
Resolved Hello, Ɱ. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "The Met Fifth Avenue".
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 deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. 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. Liz Read! Talk! 20:08, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
- Ɱ, I hope you'll rescue this content and at leas throw a stub into the main space. Seems like a topic worth of an entry. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:11, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
Done See stub in main space. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:36, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
GCT image
Just very curious why you would want to show an empty GCT which the page describes as being the second-busiest in North America. The whole purpose of a commuter terminal is to move people, not to be bare and empty. Doesn’t make any sense. Castncoot (talk) 17:10, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
- Hello Castncoot. I worked with Epicgenius and a few others to overhaul this article and its subpages. Immense, year-long process involving going there numerous times, scouring hundreds of books and documents. It's a Good Article, and FA-worthy. We chose the lead images to represent the station's architecture best. Photos with crowds show people, but obscure the grand Main Concourse. We do realize that oftentimes the concourse is crowded, and iconic in that way. That is why both the GCT article and Main Concourse article show an image of the crowded concourse very prominently, as the second or third image/image grouping in each article. ɱ (talk) 17:25, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
- I can also note that, as a prominent Wikimedia photographer, the goal is usually to capture the building and its architecture, or the surrounding landscape best. Even though Central Park is usually swarmed with activity, the photos need to actually show the park. ɱ (talk) 17:25, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
- OK. When you’ve put that much work into an article, you know what you’re talking about. Castncoot (talk) 17:33, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
