The CBSS founding fathersCheck out Talk:Council of the Baltic Sea States with the section I just wrote. Please answer me there, rather than here.--Dthomsen8 (talk) 02:28, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
White House (Herm)The White House (Herm) is good for several questions. If I remove the brackets from Fiona Duncan, is that a grave offence, or not?
Even though it is very short, can I leave it as class=start?
If not, and I think not, since 112 words is a stub, can I remove {{UK-hotel-struct-stub}}? Herm is in the Bailiwick of Guernsey, and not in the United Kingdom, what should the stub be?

Event coordinatorHi, the English Wikipedia recently created a new user permission for editors involved in off-wiki outreach work, event coordinator. This new permission allows users to mark accounts for confirmed for up to 10 days, and also allows them to create accounts for events without rate limits without some of the features of the account creator right that aren't used at edit-a-thons and other events. I have added the event coordinator permission to your account and removed the account creator permission, as you appear to have been using it mainly for outreach work. This should have no noticeable impact on your ability to create accounts, and will give you the extra ability to temporarily confirm accounts if you need to. For more in formation, you can see the information page on the right, or you can ask me if you have any questions. TonyBallioni (talk) 19:41, 16 May 2018 (UTC) The Signpost: 24 May 2018

Help for the careless AOL EMAIL USER.Dear Mary Mark, I am back in London from Jersey, and I have use of Wikipedia here, blocked in Jersey. Your help is needed in Philadelphia for me to get AOL access. Forgot password means I need someone in my house to use davidcthomsen@verizon.net, and say forgot my password. They will respond with a number, and ring my phone. When it rings, then answer and put in the number. Then AOL asks for a new Password. Answer "Parrish2328" and I can use that password here. My friend Harvey Welker at 215-978-4364 can help by calling Tom Cavanaugh on Judson Street, who has a key and can reset my password on my computer, or else look at my password by logging in and finding it on OPTIONS through in FIREFOX. If not clear, respond right here. David

Whittaker, I am working with Wikimedia’s Scoring Team to create a labeled dataset, and potentially a tool, to help editors deal with incivility when they encounter it on talk pages. A full write-up of the study can be found here: m:Research:Civil_Behavior_Interviews. We are currently recruiting editors to be interviewed about their experiences with incivility on talk pages. Would you be interested in being interviewed? I am contacting you because of your involvement in Wikipedia’s Women in Red project. The interviews should take ~1 hour, and will be conducted over BlueJeans (which does allow interviews to be recorded). If, so, please email me at ewhit@umich.edu in order to schedule an interview.

Dale EvansHowdy, I just posted on Dale Evans talk page in response to your message. The article needs a real introductory section in the lead, so I support your efforts totally. I'll see if Flightime responds to my message. I am a fellow Woman in Red, although still only a few months new and not very active right now due to a few admin issues. But I will be back. I have been editing about two years. I am the only woman editor in very quiet neighborhood of rodeo. So naturally if I see another women who wants to write in a rodeo related article on my WatchList, I will support her. Especially when what she wants to add is definitely missing from the article. Also, the editor used the tool Twinkle, so maybe only took a cursory look. And may not reply either... See you over there? Happy Trails! dawnleelynn(talk) 04:23, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
