As mentioned in "In the news" on Wikipedia's main page, the Library of Birmingham in the United Kingdom has opened. This interior photo was taken a week before opening. The article reports that the library "has been described as the largest public library in the United Kingdom, the largest public cultural space in Europe, and the largest regional library in Europe."

This is mostly a list of Non-article page requests for comment believed to be active on 5 September 2013 linked from subpages of Wikipedia:RfC, recent watchlist notices and SiteNotices.

  • A photo of the United States Supreme Court building to simultaneously represent the annual ArbCom elections procedure fiddling and "WP Loves Monuments"?!?! Hmmmmm.... That immediately set me to writing a joke about the somewhat more appropriate alternative use of a graphic featuring a building in Baraboo, Wisconsin... Alas, it appears that a Wikipedian with a camera needs to make a road trip to that monument... Carrite (talk) 20:44, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Link for "Scope of the article "Italian dialects"" doesn't go to an RFC. Johnbod (talk) 13:43, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
