A barnstar for you!

The Real Life Barnstar
Nicholas - Thank you for your amazing volunteer contributions to making Wikimania 2012 happen this year. I told you in DC - I wish we were able to get to know each other in person when I was still living out east, but, I'm glad I got to spend time with you this week and I look forward to finding a way to make it happen somehow, somewhere (perhaps Berlin!). See you soon, and thank you also for all you did to *support* me and others during the rougher patches of Wikimania, too. You are great. <3 Sarah (talk) 17:54, 18 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

you're welcome :)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited George Grantham Bain, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Alexandra Fyodorovna, Assyrian and Joe Dawson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Backstage at the Smithsonian Libraries

Backstage at the Smithsonian Libraries is part of Wikipedia Loves Libraries 2012, the second annual continent-wide campaign to bring Wikipedia and libraries together with on-site events. Running this fall through October and November, libraries (and archives) will open their doors to help build a lasting relationship with their local Wikipedian community.

Organized by Wikimedia DC, this event will take place on October 12, 2012, and will include new editor training, a "backstage pass" tour of the National Museum of Natural History, and an edit-a-thon. Everyone is welcome to attend!
