[edit] Online Ambassador, Spring 2012
Hi, UpstateNYer! As you may know, the Wikipedia Education Program has instilled a new set of standards that courses must meet to officially join the program for the semester. As you can see, one of the requirements is that at least one ambassador or professor is a Wikipedian, as this should give students more access to helpful information about contributing to Wikipedia and creating good content. You are listed on the Online Ambassador page; are you still interested in remaining active this semester? Some of these classes will have to remove themselves from the program should they fail to meet these standards, but we would like to ensure that new students are receiving proper support during the editing process. Please let me know if you are still interested in mentoring these students this semester and/or visit the Online Ambassador talk page to select a course that still needs an Online Ambassador. Thank you! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 00:24, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

[edit] Using a photograph of yours on the cover of a forthcoming Penn Press book
Mr. Wade,
Before I discovered this page, I actually sent you a message on flickr! My name is Julia Rose Roberts, and I'm Assistant to Peter Agree (the Editor-in-Chief) at the University of Pennsylvania Press. Our cover designer plans to use your photograph of the New York State Assembly chamber on the cover of a forthcoming book--How Governors Built the Modern Presidency by Saladin Ambar. I'll see that you're credited correctly. Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know!

[edit] Another William Bliss Baker inquiry
Do you ever get over to the Ballston Lake area (specifically Clifton Park)? If you do happen to find yourself in that area, would you be willing to take a few pictures of "The Castle", one of the former studios of Baker? You can see it listed at #17 on this page. I appreciate any help, and you're welcome to wait around until spring in order to catch the trees looking good in the area. A good photo of the "Clifton Park Register of Historic Places" sign would be great, as well. Thank you. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 08:46, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
- That's not Clifton Park anymore when you get that far north and west, but I could make an effort sometime to do so. You're right, though, spring would be better. upstateNYer 04:39, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
