Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art

First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there! howcheng {chat} 00:24, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Frangela Question

I deleted your "question" from the Frangela talk page because it was sophomoric and was vandalism masked as a question. Establish a basis for the question, besides your prurience, and perhaps people will take it seriously. Frazzle (talk) 03:18, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Aren't your fingers tired? Of course it was vandalism. Read up on it.Frazzle (talk) 02:45, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Isonzo

Hi, if you want "Isonzo" to appear in categories, you can add the categories to the redirect. See Isarco, for instance. Markussep ^Talk 08:01, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cash Warren

I can tell the photo isn't of Warren because I know what Cash Warren looks like. I also did comparisons with several online images of Warren and the man in the photo doesn't resemble Warren at all (with or without the facial hair). Lastly, Warren isn't credited in the photo so I assume someone just made a mistake. Pinkadelica ^♣ 17:20, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why not have the citation ready and prepared when you add the text? Sheesh, I was just adding it in there in case it was a driveby addition where the editor never returned to cite anything. No need to get offended. DP76764 (Talk) 16:18, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Collaboration for your alma mater

UC San Diego has been a recurring candidate for the Universities Collaboration of the Month but it has been short the votes necessary to win on several occasions. If you'd like to see a concerted effort to improve the article on your alma mater, please drop by the collaboration page to cast your vote. Also feel free to help improve our current collaborations during their last few days. Cheers! -Mabeenot (talk) 22:30, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism of Family Guy

Hello, I noticed that you are a significant contributor to the improvement of the article Criticism of Family Guy, and I was wondering if you feel the article is ready for nomination as a Good Article candidate. I am a member of WikiProject Family Guy, and would very much like to see this article listed as a good article. Thanks. Gage (talk) 17:52, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ōshima

I am a little unsure if it is necessary to list Osimo under Ōshima. Do you see confusion occurring often? imars (talk) 07:01, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see your point. Thanks! imars (talk) 12:30, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Categories of Italian rivers

I think they are listed by province now. So from Rivers of Italy you surf in Rivers of Italy by region and then by province. Ciao! --'''Attilios''' (talk) 23:29, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You asked me the same time before (July). There's a hierarchy: the rivers categories are by province; go to the province then region category for the listing of Italian rivers. Please do not add again the mother category. Ciao and good work. --'''Attilios''' (talk) 17:40, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Jackie (dog)

On 14 January 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Jackie (dog), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that a Nazi saluting dog nearly brought the wrath of the Third Reich upon a Finnish pharmaceutical company? 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.

Ongoing AfC feedback

Dear Schnurrbart,

Thanks for taking the time to read this article before, it has been redrafted, please let me know if there are now any Wikipedia guidelines which it still needs to address. Sincere efforts have been made to bring this draft up to main space standards. The feedback and suggestions from the mentors who support this draft are on this >> Discussion tab <<.

The last thing I want is for the page to have any reasons for templates {expert}, {needs cleanup} or a million [citation needed] tags peppered through it, so before going to main space I would appreciate it if you have any constructive feedback on any perceived weaknesses.

RfC request - 25-Apr-2011 - Intimate Relationship Skills - all your advice incorporated

Many thanks, Geoffjw1978 (talk) 07:51, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
