Wikis Take Manhattan
WHAT Wikis Take Manhattan is a scavenger hunt and free content photography contest aimed at illustrating Wikipedia and StreetsWiki articles covering sites and street features in Manhattan and across the five boroughs of New York City. LAST YEAR'S EVENT
WINNINGS? The first prize winning team members will get Eye-Fi Share cards, which automatically upload photos from your camera to your computer and to sites like Flickr.

WHO All Wikipedians and non-Wikipedians are invited to participate in team of up to three (no special knowledge is required at all, just a digital camera and a love of the city). Bring a friend (or two)! REGISTER The proper place to register your team is here. It's also perfectly possible to register on the day of when you get there, but it will be slightly easier for us if you register beforehand. WHERE Participants can begin the hunt from either of two locations: one at Columbia University (at the sundial on college walk) and one at The Open Planning Project's fantastic new event space nestled between Chinatown and SoHo. Everyone will end at The Open Planning Project:

My Spidey sense is tingling. All that this single-purpose account seems to do is nominate articles for deletion that Sarsaparilla (talk · contribs) and Abd (talk · contribs) either created or wanted kept in prior deletion discussions. It's the nomination of Bank fee (AfD discussion) for deletion that leads me to believe that this is more about playing some game with respect to accounts and sockpuppetry than it is about genuinely writing the encyclopaedia.

A new account created 28 September. Already an eager participant in hot-button disputes about that area, such as London Victory Parade of 1946 (an event with special importance to Poles). Seems to be following Jacurek around. See User talk:EdJohnston#User Jacurek and User talk:Varsovian#Concerns about your editing. Matthead comes to mind, but that has already been considered. I thought that the new guy's behavior was already peculiar enough to let him know about the Digwuren ruling. EdJohnston (talk) 21:18, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
An old edit by a Nangparbat sympathizerI just noticed this edit by User:Lanternix, who appears to be a Nangparbat sympathizer. This user is falsely claiming that I am HKelkar...

Happpy Birthday Nish......I know I am late, But Belated Happy Birthday wishes Nishkid -- Tinu Cherian - 19:46, 18 October 2009 (UTC) Possible dispute on Sino-Indian warI just thought I'd let you know that I think another dispute is starting to form on the Sino-Indian war article. The user Xingdong has attempted to make several rogue edits and has also engaged in the removal of valid citations in what appears to be a blatant attempt to push his POV. In the interests of not starting a revert war, I will be careful with what I revert but I do think that both sides should refrain from nationalistic posturing and making biased claims.

Hey! Do you remember which range you blocked last time? I couldn't find it (the /16 has a few innocent users so I'm reluctant to hardblock it). -- Luk talk 11:52, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
Don't know what to do. Need ur adviseThe article Nair, which is about an Indian ethnic group, is being vandalized repeatedly by users belonging to the Ezhava ethnic group. Since in India, most of the internet providers give dynamic IP instead of a static IP, it is very easy to escape after committing vandalism. IPs include 117.199.5.173, 117.199.1.93, 117.96.123.25, 218.248.73.53, 124.124.195.13, 173.3.44.201. I went through their contributions and found out that every single one of them have made some constructive edits in the Ezhava page and committed frequent acts of vandalism in the Nair and Nair related pages. A mistake made by one of them, exposed a well established user User:Sreejiraj as the sock puppet behind 218.248.73.53 as evident from his conversation in his talk page. I suspect most of these anonymous IPs are actually sock puppets of well established users. Could you advise me how to prevent vandalism from these users?

You're invited!
In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, review the recent Wikipedia Takes Manhattan, plan for the next stages of projects like Wikipedia at the Library and Wikipedia Loves Landmarks, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects, for example particular problems posed by Wikipedia articles about racist and anti-semitic people and movements (see the September meeting's minutes). In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and generally enjoy ourselves and kick back. You can add or remove your name from the New York City Meetups invite list at Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Invite list.
To keep up-to-date on local events, you can also join our mailing list. The Wikipedia Signpost: 2 November 2009

Request for checkuserHi, I came here via "Wikipedia:CheckUser". I am involved in a discussion at a controversial article Medical uses of silver (formerly Colloidal silver) and I have good reason to suspect that one editor participating in the discussion is a sockpuppet. User:Beaupoint made his (or her) first contribution to Wikipedia to Talk:Medical uses of silver on November 1, and of his 15 contributions since then, 5 more were to Talk:Medical uses of silver. He also advised another editor involved in the discussion, quote: "Trust me. You will never get the Immunogenics reference or anything remotely like it included in the article. This is a medical article so any references will undergo extreme scrutiny from many editors who haven't even commented yet." Here How could he possibly know that, if he just joined Wikipedia four days before? The editor I am suspecting of sock-puppetry is User:DHawker, who was an active participant in the preceding, lively discussion at the noticeboard, but has not commented on the article since then. Actually I've just checked his contributions, and it turns out that the only page he as edited since then was User talk:MastCell, where he was discussing a topic ban against him from the article. He made a cryptic remark: It'll never 'be over', (sic) although he modified it 70 minutes later. The ANI thread on his topic ban is here. It might also be important to know whether the IP 123.50.142.4, who reverted my work at the article twice (1, 2) might have been used by him. I would greatly appreciate a quick reply to my request. This is the first time I am actually having to deal with sock-puppetry. Zara1709 (talk) 23:16, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
