  You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community for Met Fashion Edit-a-thon @ Metropolitan Museum of Art on the Upper East Side. Together, we'll expand Wikipedia:WikiProject Fashion topics for basic clothing types that can be illustrated by the Met collection, and also past Costume Institute exhibitions! It's the last weekend for Camp: Notes on Fashion, and we will have an intro talk to the exhibit by a guest from the Costume Institute, and participants will then be able to visit it on their own. Galleries will be open this evening until 9 pm. With refreshments, and there will be a wiki-cake! Open to everyone at all levels of experience, wiki instructional workshop and one-on-one support will be provided.
Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends, colleagues and students! --Wikimedia New York City Team 19:38, 4 September 2019 (UTC) | |

Grand Master Brad

Did you know that our ancestors evolved over millions of years just to arrive at the historical moment at which you could resume your destiny as Big Daddy of Arbcom? It's all true. You need to run again in 2019 — we're sorely lacking your gravitas. Actually, there also seems to be a lack of other things on the current committee as well, but we'll keep it positive, eh? Please do run again! —tim //// Carrite (talk) 04:48, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
Yes, it's a selfish thing to ask, but would you kindly re-take your seat? –xenotalk 13:27, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
- +1. Though I think the technical term at this point would be "chair". Next term, "throne". --GRuban (talk) 14:54, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
- Nothing can replace Brad. EEng 15:30, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
- Let Brad enjoy himself; he’s earned it. I am sure there are others looking to develop their skills as arbitrators. Maybe look for fresh faces. Jehochman Talk 06:26, 19 September 2019 (UTC)
- I can certainly understand if you feel you've done your time - but you can add my name to a long list of folks who would support another (2019) run. If you've already responded to the issue, my apologies. — Ched (talk) 12:24, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
- I obviously have to add myself to the list. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 12:53, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
- I figured there'd be a thread like this here. Brad, I hesitate to ask someone to volunteer to be miserable, and you've certainly paid your dues. But it doesn't seem to make you nearly as miserable as it did me, and your reputation and experience and wisdom would be extraordinarily important this coming year. So I'll be selfish and add to the chorus here. While I'd love to see you run for a 2 year term, even if you made it clear you reserve the right to resign after one year, it would help spread out the election of relative newbies, and you could at least overlap with the next generation for a year. I honestly think you're in a unique position to help repair some of the damage of the past year. Please consider it. --Floquenbeam (talk) 14:36, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- ↑↑↑↑↑↑ What they all say. - SchroCat (talk) 14:44, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- yes please --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:14, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- I would agree. CassiantoTalk 15:57, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
