If anyone is interested in this project let me know. Things are just getting started, so not all details are known yet. Any art or photography experts would be particularly helpful. DaveMenninger (talk) 22:05, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
Update: There is a page where we are formulating the rules. Check it out at Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art/Taft Museum of Art rules. DaveMenninger (talk) 20:50, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
Update: The contest has begun! See: the rules page for more. DaveMenninger (talk) 22:15, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
Meetup
Would anyone be interested in a meetup? Planning has begun for an "Ohio" meetup at Wikipedia:Meetup/Ohio_1. DaveMenninger (talk) 22:16, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Cincinnati / Ohio / Wikipedia Loves Art Meetup
I'm going to plan on being at the Taft Museum for the Wikipedia Loves Art event / contest on this coming Sunday the 22nd from 11-12. I'm hoping I'll get a chance to meet up with other Wikipedians, photographers, and art lovers. Although this is a way to hopefully encourage participation in that project, I hope other Wikipedians will feel free to come and chat. It is not necessary to pay admission to come into the cafe portion of the Taft. Please stop by and see me! DaveMenninger (talk) 00:57, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
Coordinators' working group
Hi! I'd like to draw your attention to the new WikiProject coordinators' working group, an effort to bring both official and unofficial WikiProject coordinators together so that the projects can more easily develop consensus and collaborate. This group has been created after discussion regarding possible changes to the A-Class review system, and that may be one of the first things discussed by interested coordinators.
All designated project coordinators are invited to join this working group. If your project hasn't formally designated any editors as coordinators, but you are someone who regularly deals with coordination tasks in the project, please feel free to join as well. — Delievered by §hepBot (Disable) on behalf of the WikiProject coordinators' working group at 05:08, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none
parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Comair operates its headquarters by the airport in Boone County (the facility has an Erlanger address) - Why not get a photograph of it? [1] WhisperToMe (talk) 22:10, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
Neil Armstrong GAR notice
Neil Armstrong has been nominated for a good article reassessment. Please leave your comments and help us to return the article to good article quality. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status will be removed from the article. Reviewers' concerns are here.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 03:58, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
Neil Armstrong needs help
As we near the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11, the article on Neil Armstrong could use just a little work.
- Someone has tagged a few sentences "citation needed" - it would be great to get those cleaned-up.
- There seems to be a small discrepancy between Apollo 11 and Neil Armstrong concerning how much fuel the lunar lander had for landing.
Thanks for your help, JMG (talk) 07:29, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
The Cincinnati 2010 Comprehensive Plan

The City of Cincinnati is planning the new 2010 Comprehensive Plan for the future of the city. So far it is being managed by the City of Cincinnati with $500,000 from the city.
In 1925 Cincinnati started urban planning in American with its first comprehensive plan. This was redone in 1948 and that plan was updated in 1980.
