Hi Sarah - is this for New York or DC? Do you know the general time frame? I'd like to give a tentative 'yes' but when do you need a definitive response? Hope all is well --David Shankbone 16:34, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi David, thanks for coming by. It's in DC, all the details are located on the event page. Again, only 10 Wikimedians can attend, and people will be moved onto a waitlist. There is no RSVP date, and I will be emailing all who sign up to attend to verify that they are attending a few days in advance. There will be other Smithsonian related Backstage Passes (this Fall), FYI. =) There is also a National Archives event which will take place in early August (I don't know the details, I just know it'll happen). Sorry I can't be of more help! SarahStierch (talk) 16:37, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

-- Sarah: I'd love to come to future events, but I'll be out of town on that day. Let me know if something like this happens again, though. Thanks! LFaraone 17:44, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

-- This is bad ass... wish I could come.... Always thought someone should mine the treasure that is DC museums and you seem to be the person to do it! Let me know of future events please!!! ROCK ON!!! Lwoodyiii (talk) 23:26, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

hi sarah, yes, coming; food for thought: User:Slowking4/Image Rescue Squadron. let me know what you think. it does take away from new article creation, but needs to be done. Slowking4: 7@1|x 21:53, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Institute of Texan Cultures

I can see "Itcmarketing" as a clear COI editor in the article's history; was there another contributor you've identified as having a COI? Kuru (talk)

I see no remaining artifacts from that account's contributions; with no further clarification from you, I will remove the template from that page. Kuru (talk) 17:22, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

Good Article promotion

Congratulations!
Kaldari pointed out all the work you did on Wadsworth Jarrell, from the article's birth all the way to Good Article status. Thanks so much! Your work is much appreciated.

Unfortunately, I'm all out of Senoufo masks... but here's a happy and misguided cat instead. All the best, – Quadell (talk)

DC MeetUp, thank you for article review, and HELP

I actually didn't review your article, but I removed the tag from the top of the page. SarahStierch (talk) 12:56, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the invitation!

Dear SarahStierch, Thanks for the invitation to the backstage visit to the Smithsonian Archives. Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend, but I appreciate the invitation - and wish you much success with your continuing work!! NearTheZoo (talk) 16:53, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

SAAM licenses

hi sarah, check this out: Dewey Albinson was a Public Works of Art Project, and all the works produced are with SAAM [9] and PD, but licensed cc-by-1.0 NC ND on flickr [10] was there and now taken down? i am confused. do we need to have this discussion? Slowking4: 7@1|x 18:33, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

Wow. They license this stuff, and they want you to pay to use it, which is unfortunate, since it is obviously PD. As are a lot of the images on Flickr. It can be brought up (though the Archives of American Art has NOTHING to do with SAAM decisions) with SAAM if you wish, but, right now I only have time for one institution with annoying copyright restrictions =) Really great example though, and something we have to keep on our mind to discuss in the future. SarahStierch (talk) 18:37, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
here's the exhibition website [11] i am sympathetic to the fremium thesis. (upload thumbnails to commons with reference to their full size for sale). i think a general discussion of image management, showing NARA's release of ansel adams would be productive. [12] i leave the diplomacy to you; i can be bad cop ;> Slowking4: 7@1|x 18:43, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
They are familiar with NARA and all the details, trust me! I just gave a talk about copyright on Wednesday. SAAM folks attended and we have some ideas in the works. Patience =) SarahStierch (talk) 22:21, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
could be worse: the boston public library (with an image of cogswell fountain) [13], charges for scanning photos [14] Slowking4: 7@1|x 14:35, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

Collaboration between Wikimedians in Residence

Hi Sarah, just read about your meetup today and would like to signal an interest in getting involved this time or in the longer term. I have listed some ideas about how to combine GLAM and OA activities at GLAM/OA and would be particularly interested to establish contact with the scientific divisions at SI. Cheers, ---- Daniel Mietchen 20:51, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

I'm excited to see you touch base with Sarah, Daniel, and was thrilled to hear of the Wikimedian in Residence concept broadening for such a great project. Having been the Children's Museum of Indianapolis' Wikipedian in Residence since August 2010, I'm also very interested in Wiki-in-Residence collaborations and would be interested to touch base with you. The Children's Museum is very heavy on the sciences, and strongly supports their Science Port programming that covers many disciplines in order to educate children and families. Wikipedians in Residence are very collaborative folk :). Hope to speak soon - My museum webpage. Wikipedia project page. Commons project page. LoriLee (talk) 18:22, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi from TheBlueWizard!

It was a pleasure chatting with you last night at the meetup. Of course, as a reminder, you can learn about American Sign Language. In that article there is a brief paragraph on grammar with a link to American Sign Language grammar. I hope that clears up the matter. Unfortunately, there is no standard writing system for ASL. The best way to learn ASL is to take a course. Another way is to attend a deaf gathering such as ASL Dinner, which I co-host (see ASL Dinner). Have a nice day! TheBlueWizard (talk) 19:48, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks

Sarah,

Thanks for your organization of the AAA GLAM event, and please relay my appreciation to all the folks at AAA who participated. Everybody was extremely friendly and professional. My personal difficulties were dealt with extremely well. You've set a standard for other GLAM events to match.

I skipped out of the meetup at the bar afterwards and headed straight for the hotel pool! I did manage to get some Washington photos for NRHP and even a few Public Art pix (but I probably can't use them - Pushkin statue at GWU and Henry Muhlenberg bust in Tenley Park are typical - probably copyrighted)

Thanks again and all the best,

Reverted you, :-)

Sarah I reverted your removal of bibliography [17]. Let me know if you disagree. Please see my edit summary. The citation template used for the bibliography, which I introduced allows Harvard style referencing which will be elegant and useful in the future.

DYK for D. Putnam Brinley

Hey, I thought you'd be interested to know that D. Putnam Brinley, which I created for the AAA editathon, is on DYK as I write this (not nominated by me). It really shows the success of the event.--Danaman5 (talk) 04:02, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Ncnw1-1brochurez.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Ncnw1-1brochurez.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 12:05, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

After Wikimania

Hi Sarah, Yes, great to meet you and share good times at Wikimania. I lost you at the end ... couldn't find you to say goodbye. We'll keep going. Lots of things to do, including more on the Versailles project even though it is technically finishing up. Cheers, Whiteghost.ink 18:27, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

And thanks for my (first) piece of Wikilove! Whiteghost.ink 18:29, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

Liberties

Hi,

A little boldly I tweaked your list User:SarahStierch/Women's artists without articles as {{find}} might encourage readers to have a go at creating initial stubs (if they can spot some good sources). Cheers Fæ (talk) 22:05, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

I just dropped in to update the Talkback I left Sarah and saw this, and was very glad I did. I have some articles planned already but I'll definitely be referring to that list in future. Thanks very much to both of you. Rubywine . talk 00:26, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Hi Sarah, thanks for your edits to improve the article, especially the infobox which is excellent.

Children's Museum Edit-a-Thon Rockstar
Thank you for virtually attending the Children's Museum's Edit-a-Thon & helping us to share museum resources with the world through Wikipedia. You helped out immensely by taking on the Judith Inglese article. Thank you so much! LoriLee (talk) 23:21, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

IRC

I don't do IRC. IM and such is not really suited to my temperament, and I don't like the "behind-the-curtain" feel that "let's take it to IRC" has always carried in my mindspace. --Orange Mike | Talk 01:47, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

Hi Orangemike! No problem, we just wanted to form another place for dialogue and community for those who might prefer IRC over mailing lists, or strictly Wiki conversation. (Or can't meet offline.) :) We do have a gender gap mailing list too! gendergap list if that ever interests you. Thanks for all your hard work on Wikipedia! SarahStierch (talk) 01:48, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

IRC

I saw your invitation on my page. Unfortunately I have no idea how to join--I haven't taken part in chat rooms since like ten years ago. So... yeah. Any help is appreciated. Someone else also invited me to the gendergap list. I think I might have an easier time with that.--Henriettapussycat (talk) 18:34, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

Angie Y.

Why did you ask her to contribute a new "edit or article" when she's been indef blocked for a year?--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 18:59, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

An accident on my part! I've never worked with her and obviously let my eyes glaze over that area. Hopefully she'll come back as an improved editor. Thanks for stopping by my talk page :) SarahStierch (talk) 19:01, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
