If you are writing to me about an edit I reverted that you believe is in error, please name your section "Re: " followed by the title of the article inside two square brackets (Example: "Re: [[Canada]]"). This helps me to more quickly respond to your questions/concerns/complaints/comments!
Please note: Any nonconstructive edits or changing of other's comments will be reverted near-instantly and you will be promptly issued a warning for vandalism. Do you really want that?

Adrianne Wadewitz edit-a-thons in Southern New England
As you may have already heard, the Wikipedia community lost an invaluable member of the community last month. Adrianne Wadewitz was a feminist scholar of 18th-Century British literature, and a prolific editor of the site. As part of a worldwide series of tributes, New England Wikimedians, in conjunction with local institutions of higher learning, have created three edit-a-thons that will be occurring in May and June. The events are as follows:
We hope that you will be able to join us, whether you are an experienced editor or are using Wikipedia for the first time.
