Gregoria de Jesus

How exactly is Gregoria de Jesus notable enough for an encyclopedia? Are you by any chance related to her? Please add your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gregoria de Jesus. -- Chris 73 | Talk 08:51, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

If she is notable, the article will survive the article for deletion process. If you can find some references (books, newspaper articles, etc), that would be very helpful to establish notability. Also check Wikipedia:Notability (people). BTW, you have not done anything wrong, if she is indeed notable, then thank you very much for creating the article -- Chris 73 | Talk 09:05, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your understanding. I always find it difficult to decide who is and who is not notable enough for wikipedia. -- Chris 73 | Talk+

Update: It looks like the article will pass Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gregoria de Jesus and stay on Wikipedia. Shifting through lots of new pages (see Wikipedia:New pages patrol), I sometimes don't recognize the notability of a topic, but I am happy to be corrected as it is the case for Gregoria de Jesus. Best wishes and happy editing -- Chris 73 | Talk 10:25, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

By the way, did you copy and slightly modify the text from here? It is no problem to take the information, but it is a problem to copy the text, as the text most likely is copyrighted. Details on Wikipedia:Copyrights -- Chris 73 | Talk 10:45, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

No problem..

Mabuhay D2B (let's hope I got it right), I really hope you enjoy editing here. By the way, I added my vote and reasons in the AfD mentioned above, I hope that'll help. And oh yeah, I'm going to this once, so be careful: you will get addicted! =D Happy holidays, and a merry Christmas. ← ANAS ^Talk 10:55, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

D2B, I'm afraid you'll have to add citations in the Gregoria de Jesus article where appropriate. I think you'll find this guide helpful; here's a summary. It is also better to use this template for web sources. Happy editing. ← ANAS ^Talk 16:10, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Proposed blackout in protest of RA 10175

Dear D2B,

Greetings!

As a Filipino Wikipedian, I hope you are aware of the passage of Republic Act No. 10175, also known as the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012, which was signed into law by President Benigno Aquino III on September 12, 2012. Currently, there is a discussion on the Tambayan, the noticeboard for Philippines-related topics, about a proposed blackout of the English Wikipedia in the Philippines in order to protest the passage of RA 10175, similar to the blackout against SOPA and PIPA held earlier this year. I feel that your input on the subject will definitely help in the discussion.

Please feel free to participate in the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines#The Cybercrime Prevention Act, and I hope your input will help the Filipino Wikipedia community determine which is the best course of action against this law. Similarly, we hope to get as much input from as many Wikipedians as possible.

Thank you and maraming salamat po!

Kind regards,

2019 US Banknote Contest

	US Banknote Contest
	November-December 2019
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here
