A tag has been placed on [[:American International School of Vienna]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G12|section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be a clear [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright]] infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of ''information'', but not as a source of ''sentences''. This part is crucial: ''say it in your own words''. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators '''will be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]]. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission]]. You might want to look at [[Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]] for more details, or ask a question [[Wikipedia:Help desk|here]]. 

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit '''[[Talk:American International School of Vienna|the page's talk page directly]]''' to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.  <!-- Template:Db-copyvio-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:Epeefleche|Epeefleche]] ([[User talk:Epeefleche|talk]]) 02:00, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

== A request from the Syracuse Post-Standard ==

Hello Newkai,

I am a reporter at the Post-Standard, and I'm researching a story about the "Syracuse, New York" entry on Wikipedia, and the gallant editors who monitor and revise it - and fend off vandals. I have been looking at some of the crazier attempts to change the Syracuse page -- folks trying to add their names to the "well known" people list, folks adding sophomoric humor and sometimes folks just ranting inappropriately (even if their rants might have a ring of truth.) 

In the course of my research, I came across your user name extensively, and you are listed as the most prolific editor on the Syracuse page. The top two are far and away above all others.

I would like to interview you along these lines. Why spend so much time manning the barricaides of the Syracuse, New York site? How many hours do you put in? How often do you check? Why do it?

As a newspaper person, I prefer to know the name of the person I am dealing with. So if you're willing to talk, I would hope you would be willing to do it with your name. But I do understand people's desires for confidentiality. I think the work you do is commendable. So if you don't want your name used, I would honor that request. 

Can we talk? 

My name is Hart Seely. I have been a reporter since 1979 at this paper. My phone number is 315-470-2247. My email is hseely@syracuse.com. I suspect email might be the best course of contact. I'll be hoping to hear from you.

Thank you,

Hart  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/24.39.83.202|24.39.83.202]] ([[User talk:24.39.83.202|talk]]) 21:48, 8 March 2012 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:Hi Newkai. My name is Matthew Roth and I'm the Global Communications Manager with the Wikimedia Foundation. I spoke with Hart and recommended he reach out to you through your talk page if he wanted to get in touch. I'm happy to discuss with you more if you have questions or want to talk about anything: mroth{{@}}wikimedia.org. I found Hart had done quite a bit of his homework and he appeared to have a real curiosity about who works so hard to keep the [[Syracuse, New York]] article in good shape. Sometimes these types of stories turn out to be quite good, as reporters get the human interest angle behind the hard work of editors. A couple examples [http://www.therepublic.com/view/story/8ecde8a2cfdc48f1b500395297ab8069/IN--Exchange-Warren-County-Wikipedia/ here] and [http://pvtimes.com/news/pahrumpipedia-pahrump-on-wikipedia-how-the-world-sees-us/ here].

The Guggenheim aims to further the goals of Ada Lovelace Day for STEM, and Art+Feminism for art, in a field that, by its nature combines both.

The Guggenheim will work alongside ArchiteXX, the founders of WikiD: Women Wikipedia Design #wikiD, the international education and advocacy program working to increase the number of Wikipedia articles on women in architecture and the built environment. New and experienced editors are welcome.

Can’t join us in New York? Visit our [[Wikipedia:Meetup/Women in Architecture|global partnerships page]] to discover an edit-a-thon in a city near you or simply join remotely.

You are invited to join us for a full day and evening of social Wikipedia editing at the Guggenheim (drop-in any time, noon-8pm!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles covering the lives and works of women in architecture.

*Thursday, October 15 '''[[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Women in Architecture|Women in Architecture Edit-a-thon @ Guggenheim]] ([[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Women in Architecture#Attendees|RSVP on-wiki]] or [http://www.meetup.com/WikimediaNYC/ at meetup.com])'''.
::''noon - 8pm (drop-in anytime!) at Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Garrett Lobby @ 1071 5th Ave by E 88 St''

In conjunction with Archtober and New York Archives Week, the Guggenheim will host its third Wikipedia edit-a-thon—or, #guggathon—to enhance articles related to women in architecture on Wikipedia. The Guggenheim aims to further the goals of Ada Lovelace Day for STEM, and Art+Feminism for art, in a field that, by its nature combines both.

The Guggenheim will work alongside ArchiteXX, the founders of WikiD: Women Wikipedia Design #wikiD, the international education and advocacy program working to increase the number of Wikipedia articles on women in architecture and the built environment. New and experienced editors are welcome.

Can’t join us in New York? Visit our [[Wikipedia:Meetup/Women in Architecture|global partnerships page]] to discover an edit-a-thon in a city near you or simply join remotely.

We hope to see you there!--[[User:Pharos|Pharos]] ([[User talk:Pharos|talk]]) 19:58, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

Light refreshments will be provided.

Hi, 
This image was seemingly uploaded prior to current image polices, Thank you. 

However, as part of ongoing efforts to ensure all media on English Wikipedia is correctly licensed and attributed it would be appreciated if you were able to confirm, that it was your own work, by marking it as {{tl|own}}, amending the {{tl|information}} added by a third party, and by changing the license to an appropriate "self" variant.  You can also add <code><nowiki>|claimed=yes</nowiki></code> to the {{tl|media by uploader}} tag if it is present to indicate that you've acknowledged the image, and license shown (and updated the {{tl|information}} where appropriate).

This will assist those reviewing the many many "free" images on commons that have not yet been transfered to Commons.

Join us for a full Saturday of social Wikipedia editing at the [[Museum of Modern Art]] (drop-in any time!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to the lives and works of Latin American artists.

The ''WikiArte'' (Wiki Arte y Cultura Latinoamerica) edit-a-thon is a global campaign to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Latin American arts and culture and to counter geocultural systemic bias on Wikipedia. 

Featuring an opening Artists' Panel at 10am, with Sol Aramendi, Sharon Lee De La Cruz, and Marisa Morán Jahn, to be moderated by Rocío Aranda-Alvarado, curator at El Museo del Barrio.

The Museum of Modern Art and Fundacion Cisneros/Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros are uniting with international allies to focus on the lives and works of Latin American artists, architects and designers.  With keystone events scheduled for October 22 in New York City and other cities throughout the month (Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Caracas, & others), the campaign aims to further similar goals to [[Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism|Art+Feminism]].

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. Introductory training on the basics of Wikipedia editing will be given throughout the edit-a-thon. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand.

On the last Sunday of every month, the Boardroom at [https://www.acehotel.com/newyork Ace Hotel New York] hosts Action Equals History — a unique opportunity for New Yorkers to learn hands-on in a technology training/workshop session about the mechanics, practices and benefits of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia projects. This is an opportunity for all to gather, share and work collectively towards a more robust account of history.

For this month, and following on the recent [[Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism|Art+Feminism]] campaign, we'll focus on building better [[edit-a-thon]] tools for a variety of different thematic campaigns, and user-testing them with the community.  Towards a goal of advancing these tools for wider use with diverse local groups.

These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely.

*Sunday November 19 ''' [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/MetAsianMonth|Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met]] ([[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/MetAsianMonth#Participants|RSVP on-wiki]] or [http://www.meetup.com/WikimediaNYC/ at meetup.com])'''.
::''10:30 am - 4:00 pm in Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Uris Center for Education''
:::''81st Street entrance, [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]], 1000 Fifth Avenue''

Attendees should bring their own laptops and power cords. Light snacks, drinks and cake will be provided.

<big>'''We also welcome remote participation for the global online [[meta:Wikipedia Asian Month 2017/Asian Art|Wikipedia Asian Art Month]], running November 1-30.'''</big>

Thanks, and hope to see you at the museum, and/or as part of the online Wikipedia Asian Month contest!--[[User:Pharos|Pharos]] ([[User talk:Pharos|talk]]) 16:36, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

==  [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[:Lincoln Hill, Syracuse]] ==
[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|alt=Notice|48px|]]

The article [[:Lincoln Hill, Syracuse]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>'''Article subject does not meet notability guidelines since it is not discussed in substantial depth at multiple, reputable sources.'''</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:Lincoln Hill, Syracuse|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> [[User:Oona Wikiwalker|Oona Wikiwalker]] ([[User talk:Oona Wikiwalker|talk]]) 23:36, 14 June 2025 (UTC)
