Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but... I'm looking for an experienced Wikipedia editor that I can collaborate with for either Bart's Books or Morgan Hill, California. I want to bring one of these articles to GA status. Reply on my talk page if you're interested. Thanks, TWOrantulaTM (enter the web) 16:43, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Help with new Infillion services section[edit]

Hello, I'm an employee of the Los Angeles-based media and advertising company Infillion. I've had an edit request waiting on the article's Talk page for the past month or so, and was wondering if anybody here would be interested in reviewing it. The request pertains to a new Location and out-of-home advertising section I'm proposing, which I think would improve the article by describing the company's relatively recent expansion into those two sectors. This link will take you to my request, which contains the full text of the draft and all its references. Thank you in advance to anyone who bothers to take a look.. Cheers, CM with Infillion (talk) 16:49, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Long term project for Climate of California[edit]

Howdy y'all. Over the last year, I have worked on List of California tornadoes, which I intend to nominate for featured list status sooner or later, although the older coverage (pre-1950) might not be the best. There is also the List of California hurricanes, which I intend to work on to keep at featured list status. The entire topic currently looks like this:

I don't think it's too big a project to imagine all of these articles as featured lists or featured articles. The information is out there. I don't think I can do it all on my own, but maybe there's someone out there who might be interested. Please reach out to me if you are. Thanks. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:54, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I changed the icon for List of California tornadoes due to the ongoing FLC. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:17, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And updated it on account it being a featured list now! Onward. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 00:26, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
