Hello,
I saw your comment in the CREWE talk page so thought I would stop by to say "hi". I can put the 60+ userbox on my page next month. If finances permit, I hope to attend Wikimania, and hope to meet you. Take care. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 02:21, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
- Share a room with 6 20 somethings and you can afford it! :-) You've seen my CarolMooreDc affirmative action for oldsters right on top of the page? :-) CarolMooreDC 02:52, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
- Rooming with any number of 20 somethings sound both appealing and daunting at the same time. I was thinking more like Motel 6 or even a backpacking tent, but who knows which ship will come in? Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:12, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
- Glancing at the top of your talk page, I see you mentioned your grandfather's service in World War I. My maternal grandfather, born in 1881, was a bit old for WWI service. He lost his first wife in the postwar flu epidemic in 1919, and hired a farm girl to care for his four kids. She became his second wife, my grandmother, and they had three kids, my mother the youngest of them. If it wasn't for the 1919 flu pandemic, I would not exist.

- My grandmother had the 1918 flu and often told the story of how she almost died. I always hope I'm carrying some special immunity in case it comes back again! CarolMooreDC 01:47, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Women's Workshop page

Re: Wikipedia:Workshop_for_Women_in_Wikipedia. I'm beefing up WP:Workshop and also working on Gender Gap issues. Did you actually have the workshop mentioned at Workshop_for_Women_in_Wikipedia? Also, were you involved with or know about WikiConference India 2011 which seemed to have three women's programs, if not workshops. Are there reports of any of this anywhere? Is there an agenda/workshop outline for any womens workshops we could add to that page? Should I ask User:Mokshjuneja who also still seems still to be working on workshops? FYI, I did find one more more relevant pictures at Wikicommons that can be added to the Women Workshop article/project. Feel free to tweak either page since you obviously have a lot of experience with workshops. I've only done one in DC so far and doing another one this weekend. Thanks.

Sorry for the delay in my reply on this.
The Workshop did not happen. We decided to combine the first one with the conference and do subsequent ones, if needed alone, as per requirements that would arise. The decision was motivated with in trying to reach out to more women editors and perhaps even try and get women editors to do this workshop.
I have conveyed your message to the editors involved, who are: User:Bishdatta and User:Noopur28.

- Thanks for info. It still can be a general page with various women-related events and workshops and will start making it more general in a few days. So look forward from anything I get from them, especially detail agendas which can be added to the page. CarolMooreDC 18:50, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

- Yes, User:Bishdatta and User:AroundTheGlobe had gone for an event at Akshara, a gender rights group. You can see an event report here. I have moved from Mumbai because of a job and hence no longer directly involved, though in contact with them. Please do leave a message on their talk page. Thanks.

The Tea Leaf - Issue One - Recent news from the Teahouse
Hi! Welcome to the first edition of The Tea Leaf, the official newsletter of the Teahouse!
%E3%81%A8%E5%AF%8C%E5%A3%AB%E5%B1%B1(%E3%81%B5%E3%81%98%E3%81%95%E3%82%93).jpg)
- Metrics are out from week one. Week one showed that the need for Teahouse hosts to invite new editors to the Teahouse is urgent for this pilot period. It also showed that emailing new users invitations is a powerful tool, with new editors responding more to emails than to talk page templates. We also learned that the customized database reports created for the Teahouse have the highest return rate of participation by invitees. Check out the metrics here and see how you can help with inviting in our Invitation Guide.
- A refreshed "Your hosts" page encourages experienced Wikipedians to learn about the Teahouse and participate. With community input, the Teahouse has updated the Your hosts page which details the host roles within the Teahouse pilot and the importance that hosts play in providing a friendly, special experience not always found on other welcome/help spaces on Wikipedia. It also explains how Teahouse hosts are important regarding metrics reporting during this pilot. Are you an experienced editor who wants to help out? Take a look at the new page today and start learning about the hosts tasks and how you can participate!
- Introduce yourself and meet new guests at the Teahouse. Take the time to welcome and get to know the latest guests at the Teahouse. New & experienced editors to Wikipedia can add a brief infobox about themselves and get to know one another with direct links to userpages. Drop off some wikilove to these editors today, they'll surely be happy to feel the wikilove!
