@The Eloquent Peasant: Thank you I am doing well, and thank you for the appreciation. I'm on an indefinite Wikibreak right now, but just checking in for a day. I wish you and the Wikipedia community a happy 2021. — Ipoellet (talk) 03:49, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Well I'm very glad to hear that. A Wiki break is a good thing! Happy 2021. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 03:52, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Use of Photo?

Hello, I'd like to use your photo of the Wentz Cottage in Oregon in a book I'm publishing on a mid-century architect. Is that permissible? ```` — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.172.103.83 (talk) 22:35, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

All of my photos on the Wikimedia projects, including the two of the Wentz Cottage, are freely available for reuse for your purpose. The details of the license for the Wentz photos are found here. I am happy for you to use my photos in your book, and wish you all the best in your project. — Ipoellet (talk) 00:33, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Ipoellet,

Somehow, an edit you made to this page added a red link category that I can not find a way to remove unless I undo your edit which, given your experience, I am reluctant to do. Could you find what text, probably in the infobox, is causing this category to appear or could you create this category? Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 02:55, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: Thank you for pointing out the problem. I have inserted a parameter in the infobox that removed the redlink. I had forgotten it when I did my edit. Thanks again. — Ipoellet (talk) 03:46, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Portland Art+Feminism Edit-a-thon: March 12, 2022

You are invited! An Art+Feminism Wikipedia edit-a-thon will be held in Portland, Oregon, on March 12, 2022. Learn more here!

Wikipedia is one of the most-visited sites on the internet—and it’s created by people who volunteer their time to write and edit pages. Learn how to edit Wikipedia and be a part of shaping our understanding of our world. In this workshop, volunteer Wikipedia editors will be on hand to train participants on how to get started editing pages and offer ideas for which pages you can pitch in to help improve. Show up at any point during the four hours to get started!

Also: Free burritos!! We will be providing vegan, vegetarian, and meat burritos from food cart Loncheria Las Mayos. Alder Commons has a large, fenced playground. Children are welcome! Some computers will be available to borrow, but if you have a laptop, please bring it to use. We will also be leading an online training for new editors at 11am-12pm PST. Please feel free to join that training if you are not able to show up IRL.

This event is part of the international month of events organized by Art+Feminism, which is building a community of activists committed to closing information gaps related to gender, feminism, and the arts, beginning with Wikipedia.

Welcome back!

Glad to see that you are back – editing here and uploading images to Commons. (I had become a little concerned about your [unusual] absence!) – SJ Morg (talk) 11:23, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@SJ Morg: Thank you for your greetings! My absence was a case of Wikipedia burnout, and to be honest I'm not sure how long I will be here this time. But in the meanwhile, it's really good to know people notice and care. — Ipoellet (talk) 00:58, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for all your work transcribing the Weekly Lists

I was wondering if/where your (excellent) work transcribing the Weekly Lists over on Wikisource was linked from the WikiProject (or elsewhere). In any case, thanks for your work on that. JesseW, the juggling janitor 14:47, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@JesseW: No, it's not linked that I know of - it never really occurred to me to do so. And thank you for the compliment - I really appreciate it. — Ipoellet (talk) 20:13, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
