DYK for Derby Exhibition (1839)

On 16 June 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Derby Exhibition (1839), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the 96,000 people who visited the The Derby Exhibition of 1839 (pictured) were able to view a coconut? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Wikimania

Thanks for recent contribution on Orrery & Ben West painting. Are you at Wikimania? I'm talking about the project on the Saturday and will be mentioning our work Victuallers (talk) 12:16, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I should admit I don't even know where Wikimania stays, so it is very unlikely I'm there... I suppose you'll show the charts that you put on the participants page, they are really impressive. BTW, General Johnson... got over 5,000 hits, so it is on the DYKSTATS page now! --Fanfwah (talk) 12:27, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh Wikimania is the global meet every year of wiki people. If you join French Wikimedia I'm sure they would help you go next year (in Washington). Is French going to be in top 5? You are doing brilliant work. Victuallers (talk) 12:36, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Let's see... --Fanfwah (talk) 12:54, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I think you made it ... Andrew Dalby 12:11, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fanfwah

We would like to invite you to contribute to the GibraltarpediA project, the world's first WIkipedia City. The project needs writers, photographers, translators and others to help build the first wiki city which bridges Europe and Africa. We are going to transform Gibraltar and the surrounding areas in Morocco and Spain into areas rich with encyclopedic content immediately accessible using QR codes and NFC on plaques for visitors and local people.

There are prizes to reward contributors in the Gibraltarpedia Multilingual challenge for the best editors, photographs and cartographers... whoever you are. More at Gibraltarpedia.org

Catalan Culture Challenge

I apologize if this message is not in your language. I've seen that -in 2011- you joined the Derby Multilingual Challenge. I just wanted to inform you that from March 16 to April 15 we organise the Catalan Culture Challenge, a Wikipedia editing contest in which victory will go to those who start and improve the greatest number of articles about 50 key figures of Catalan culture. You can take part by creating or expanding articles on these people in your native language (or any other one you speak). It would be lovely to have you on board. :-)

We look forward to seeing you!
