Great Mall/Main edit

I see what you are saying, however, making this station a seperate article opens up the possibility of adding information that is relavant to the transit station, but not to the mall - including other points of interest (i.e. the north county jail facility), the history of this transit hub, public art, etc.

I agree that transportation facilities that are adjacent to each other should all be part of the same article - see Diridon Station, Tamien station, Downtown Mountain View station. However, I don't think that the mere fact that this transit stop serves the Great Mall necessarily means that they belong in the same article (as an analogy, Great America theme park is a different article than Great America light rail station, etc. --Brianvdb 07:19, 5 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Edit-a-thon invite edit

Adrianne Wadewitz Memorial edit-a-thons edit

Adrianne Wadewitz edit-a-thons in Southern New England
 

As you may have already heard, the Wikipedia community lost an invaluable member of the community last month. Adrianne Wadewitz was a feminist scholar of 18th-Century British literature, and a prolific editor of the site. As part of a worldwide series of tributes, New England Wikimedians, in conjunction with local institutions of higher learning, have created three edit-a-thons that will be occurring in May and June. The events are as follows:

We hope that you will be able to join us, whether you are an experienced editor or are using Wikipedia for the first time.

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
