A kitten and Mary Dennett

[edit]

Thank you for the cute kitten and thank you even more for your improvement to Mary Dennett, which is an interesting and worthwhile story. If I can help in any way, please do not hesitate to ask. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:56, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I sent a Facebook friend request if you want to discuss articles on other red links. I have photos on my Facebook page of the Mount Whitney Trail which I hiked (slowly) with my wife at age 57 in 2009. I enjoyed seeing your photos, as I love the Sierra Nevada. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 17:35, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I actually hardly use Facebook at all... Congratulations on the Mount Whitney hike, that's brutal at any age! Catavar (talk) 05:01, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The Brilliant Idea Barnstar
Hi Valerie! I just wanted to touch bases with you and thank you sincerely for starting the Sarah Stierch article. Such a brilliant idea! Like yourself, I'm stunned that nobody else thought of it sooner. I guess I'm just too caught up in my own agenda sometimes to think about writing articles about my fellow Wikipedians (and friends). Hopefully, we'll be able to keep the article from deletion, as appropriate. You're an awesome member of the team. I look forward to working with you more in the future!

Invitation to Local Wikimania Event in San Francisco this Friday

[edit]

Hi!

Wikimania is happening and hopefully you're enjoying the sessions. While it's fairly last minute, you're warmly invited to participate in the local Wikimania-themed meetup in the Wikimedia Foundation office this Friday (tomorrow!). You will have to register in advance, but we would love to see more people from the WikiSalon community participate! For more information and registration, please check out meta:Wikimania 2022/San Francisco Meetup.

The event will involve hacking, teaching, learning, and celebrating and we'll have snacks. We will have the opportunity to watch live sessions at Wikimania together in the afternoon. The rest of the day we'll have opportunity to participate in the hackathon, and we may have some on-demand workshops/learning sessions.

In case we run out of space, it's first-come-first-serve so let us know soon! Hope to see you there.
