In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, review the recent Wiki-Conference NYC 2010, plan for the next stages of projects like Wikipedia Ambassador Program and Wikipedia Academy, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects (see the May meeting's minutes). In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and generally enjoy ourselves and kick back.

Regent Palace HotelYou deleted a page on the Regent Palace Hotel in London for the reason that some of the text was quoting another webpage, which was the hotel site. For info, the hotel is now closed, and it is likey that that website will be removed from the web. That being the case I request the page is reinstated to Wikipedia.

Palm CivetI noted that Palm-civetis a redirect( to Paradoxurus). Now on the Paradoxurus page all the species are listed in the form "Palm civet" (no hyphen). It seems sensible to me that there should be a similar redirect from Palm civet. However when I attempted to create such a redirect I saw that you had previously deleted Palm civet when it was a redirect to Civet. Would you agree to my creating a redirect from Palm civet to Paradoxurus? VinculumMan (talk) 15:03, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

PlatypusHey, your opinion is requested at the talk page of the platypus article, to finally put this stupid capitalisation debate to rest. Cheers! Aaadddaaammm (talk) 11:07, 30 January 2011 (UTC) Comfort (definition)Re your deletion, I'm not sure that it was correct per the reason you gave. I deleted Comfort definition because it was a duplicate of Comfort (definition), not because an AfD debate had called for its deletion. Your deletion of Comfort (definition) as a duplicate of a page that was deleted via AfD is therefore incorrect. The AfD debate is still live. In other words, the deletion may be correct, but the reason given is not. That said, I did !vote delete at AfD, and do not see that the article will survive AfD. Even so, should the article be restored to allow the debate to run its full course. There would be no long term harm done by such a restoration, as the AfD would be over in less than a week. Other than that, should this be raised at WP:AN for discussion. Mjroots (talk) 12:26, 7 February 2011 (UTC) Speedy deletion declined: WebchutneyHello UtherSRG.

Tbhotch* ۩ ۞ 20:29, 25 April 2011 (UTC) The fossa is a cat-like, carnivorous mammal that is endemic to Madagascar. It is a member of the Eupleridae, a family of carnivorans closely related to the mongoose family. Its classification has been controversial because its physical traits resemble those of cats, yet other traits suggest a close relationship with viverrids. The fossa is the largest mammalian carnivore on the island of Madagascar and has been compared to a small cougar. Adults have a head-body length of 70–80 cm (28–31 in) and weigh between 5.5–8.6 kg (12–19 lb), with the males larger than the females. It has semi-retractable claws and flexible ankles that allow it to climb up and down trees head-first, and also support jumping from tree-to-tree. The fossa is unique within its family for the shape of its genitalia, which share traits with those of cats and hyenas. The species is widespread, although population densities are usually low. It is found solely in forested habitat, and actively hunts both day and night. Over 50% of its diet consists of lemurs, the endemic primates found on the island, though tenrecs, rodents, lizards, birds, and other animals are also documented as prey. The fossa is listed as "Vulnerable" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The greatest threat to the species is habitat destruction. (more...) Forgetting something?Hello.

Deletion of Dru Hepkins PageI’m writing because we keep submitting a bio for Dru Hepkins and it keeps being deleted, we feel without research or fact checking. Everyone in his bio, the Grammy nominated DJ he has released 4 successful songs with to date, the DJ who picked Dru Hepkins’ hit House track “Red Light” as the “hot download pick” and his famous news reporter brother are all in wikepdia, but his page is deleted? Dru Hepkins is on several Dance label music compilations and has even appeared on Real Housewives of New York DJ-ing his original music to be aired in June. We understand that you need to shoot down a lot of fluff daily, but it may lead to a trigger happy deletion situation. Not everyone is a megastar household name, but some are signed artists and writers known in various circles with varying achievements and deserve their page. Regarding criteria, Dru Hepkins has the works: He’s a signed artists with House records played all over the world, has a locally famous brother, he was a state champion track star and the list can literally go on and on. Besides a Nobel Peace Prize what else would he need? This deletion was unwarranted and we’re just asking for re-consideration. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockult (talk • contribs) 16:59, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
This is a free online encyclopedia and there isn’t a customer service department. We don't know the proper protocol; we read the several varying situations and tried to do the most effective thing relative to the situation. The last thing we read that sounded like our situation was to contact the administrator who deleted the article-- so we tried that.

You are saying there is no proof that its a notable person. This is getting very frustrating as I feel you are not taking the time to really consider the article. It is plenty worthy because Everett is a professional gamer that is directly affiliated with multiple other professionals listed on Wikipedia. What is the problem here? I have countless ways to proof that the article is worthy but you are not taking the time to really investigate the situation before deleting it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Resser123 (talk • contribs) 19:59, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion contested: Mob FandangoHello UtherSRG, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Mob Fandango, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7.

Not sure if you got this - Tassie Devil FARI have nominated Tasmanian Devil for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. I think the original message was archived before you got it, but the article is still in the first stage. --Malkinann (talk)
Recreating the article "CoolSpeech"Hello UtherSRG, I'm the author of the program CoolSpeech for which someone else created a Wikipedia article but you deleted it. I didn't read that article and don't know why it was deleted. Now I'm trying to recreate it but Wikipedia says I should ask you first. I can prove CoolSpeech's notability: It was featured on ZDNet as "Hot File of the Day" on June 6, 2001; it was featured on MSN as "Feature Download"; it was featured on SmartComputing magazine as "Smart Choice". For more details, see http://www.bytecool.com/awards.htm Feel free to ask me any questions at yaoziyuan@gmail.com.

CSD on Robert's Western WorldJust letting you know, I have challenged your CSD A7 on Robert's Western World. In my assessment, the article makes a sufficient indication as to why it is important to survive deletion under A7. I also did a quick Google News search which suggests to me the article may even pass the notability standards, so I have not tagged it for an alternative deletion process, I have no objection if you want to though.

"Before listing a review request please attempt to discuss the matter with the admin who deleted the page as this could resolve the matter more quickly. There could have been a mistake, miscommunication, or misunderstanding, and a full review may not be needed.

If things don't work out, please note in the DRV listing that you first tried discussing the matter with the admin who deleted the page." I am doing what Wikipedia asks. Trying to talk to you.

Most non-human primates live in tropical or subtropical regions of the Americas, Africa, and Asia. Primates range in size from the Madame Berthe's mouse lemur, which weighs only 30 grams (1.1 oz) to the mountain gorilla weighing 200 kilograms (440 lb). According to fossil evidence, the primitive ancestors of primates may have existed in the late Cretaceous period around 65 million years ago, and the oldest known primate is the Late Paleocene Plesiadapis, c. 55–58 million years ago. Primates are characterized by their large brains, and increased reliance on stereoscopic vision at the expense of smell. These features are most marked in monkeys and apes, and noticeably less so in lorises and lemurs. Three-color vision has developed in some primates. Most also have opposable thumbs and some have prehensile tails. (more...)

Main page appearance: ring-tailed lemurThis is a note to let the main editors of ring-tailed lemur know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on March 22, 2012. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/March 22, 2012.

If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Taxa and prefixesAh okay, I thought perhaps they had been neglected to be added as opposed to be intentionally omitted. Right now I'm not sure about the difference between major and minor taxa. Is this policy made uniform with some guidelines for the labelling scheme for all bio pages? Also in regard to Homin, you mentioned the data is duplicated from another page: but which one? Whatever is best I was wondering if we could redirect it there. I'm not asserting that it's a word, rather a shared 5-letter 2-syllable prefix of several terms (both class and common reference). Do you know if it would be possible to retrieve the deleted content? I'd like to host it on my userspace as a reminder. Part of the trouble is that when we go to these page's articles, not all the terms get listed, due to the level ommissions on the taxonomy template. The lowest, tribe Hominini omits superfamily Hominoidea at the top. Family Hominidae omits tribe Hominini at the bottom. Superfamily Hominoidea omits two. Sub-tribeHominina actually doesn't even show up on the higher levels, it only shows up on Homo, which itself omits the sub-family. Actually with the data additions reverted, none of these pages seem to list all 5 of them together in sequence. Even though it can be approximated by skipping through the pages (which is how I figured it out) they don't seem to be collected together for easy viewing. If there were a table set up for the 10 terms it'd be good. Y12J (talk) 06:46, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
Old World monkeyDoes it? As I recall, the rule is to include only the major taxonomic levels, and the one immediately above the one referenced in the article (in this case, the parvorder). Obviously, it's a good faith edit, but it's not my understanding of the principle we use. If you disagree, feel free to change it back; I'm not going to edit war over it.

InternazionaleBefore you get the inevitable complaints about your close of that RM , I just wanted to say well done on a good rationale - article title consistency is an important aspect that many people overlook in favour of their own preferences for particular subjects within a topic.

About Cosmopolis moveWell, I think it's not a controversial move. I was trying to Be Bold and move the page to the disambiguation, but I can't. Otherwise I would have done it. WP:Disambig is rather clear on this: 1) A topic is primary for a term, with respect to usage, if it is highly likely—much more likely than any other topic, and more likely than all the other topics combined—to be the topic sought when a reader searches for that term. 2) A topic is primary for a term, with respect to long-term significance, if it has substantially greater enduring notability and educational value than any other topic associated with that term. The novel does not fulfill either of these two requirements to be a primary topic, especially compared to the 1892 novel and the Washington city. If you think it is controversial, why not move my request to the controversial move list instead of outright deleting it? Kreachure (talk) 02:48, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
Olive baboonHi UtherSRG, I appreciate you offering your help. I'm trying not to screw up the olive baboon page but I'm obviously having a hard time figuring out how to edit it. I'm editing the page as an assignment for my Intro to Primate Studies course. I'm mostly not correcting any information already written just trying to add some more facts. I have tried reading the tutorials and using the sandbox but I still don't understand how to add references so they are in the correct spot, with a number, and following the same template as the other references on the page. I clicked on the refToolbar and it automatically cited it for me but it still didn't work correctly. I'm sorry to bother you with something as silly as editing help but I would really appreciate if you could explain what I should be doing instead. Thanks, Aeliseb Aeliseb (talk) 14:32, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Half-complete moveI notice you moved University of Trinity College but not University of St. Michael's College or Victoria University, Toronto. So where do we go from here? It seems to me that the talk page of one college was not the place to make this decision, but I'm reluctant to go over to the USMC article, unilaterally move it, and tell anyone watching it who objects "Oh, we've already established a consensus over at some other page." But of course it's either that or revert the Trinity move (since we can't pick and choose which federative universities we'll recognize as such and which not). Not being sure of the protocol, I'd consult with you as to which you prefer. Carolynparrishfan (talk) 23:11, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
Masonic Child ID programs moveUnfortunately, this is not uncontroversial, and I'm very concerned that an IP was allowed to make the request as his or her second edit without notification of anybody else, especially when it was moved over a redirect that was there for a reason. The program goes under several different names at present (most of which use "CHIP"), so the parenthetical "CHIP" is not to dab, but to clarify to the reader what it is precisely so that the article isn't moved all over the place. I would ask that the move be undone. MSJapan (talk) 04:06, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
SalonHi, UtherSRG, and thank you for taking point on admin duties for the RM discussions at Talk:TMZ.com and Talk:Salon.com. I could see there was less than majority support to move TMZ.com; there seemed a great deal of support for moving Salon.com, however, so I was wondering if I might ask you to revisit that decision? Aside from the support on that page, it would make it consistent with Comics Bulletin, Comic Book Resources, Slate Magazine, The Huffington Post, Radar Online and other website-article titles. What do you think? With regards, --Tenebrae (talk) 23:59, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
Rudolf "Rudi" Skacel/Skácel moveHey Uther, sorry to come on here and complain but I think there was a clear consensus on the RM to move it Rudi Skacel. There were five editors who said that it should be moved to Rudi Skacel but only two said Rudi Skácel. I think the point about using WP:UE is valid which in my opinion is why it should have been moved. Adam4267 (talk) 11:06, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I am surprised at your revert of the RM close. I understand that this was a controversial close but the way to contest it was, IMHO, at WP:DRV not by another admin reverting it. I am inclined to undo your revert and take it to WP:DRV but have no wish to wheel war. Perhaps you would like to do this or at least register a 'no objection' to my taking this action?

OrangutanIf you have a moment, could you help me deal with an edit by Maunus, who just restored an old "Etymology" section to the Orangutan article? I just promoted it to GA, and this section is extremely subpar, lacks references, and needs improved references. If it's going to stay, we'll also have to remove the etymology further down in the article. Unfortunately, I'm about to head out the door, and after nearly pulling my hair out over this review, I don't think I can take any more anyway.

2012 insurgency in northern MaliExcuse me, as I saw you are a moving administrator, can I ask you to move/rename the article 2012 insurgency in northern Mali to Tuareg rebellion (2012)? I know you have a back log of moving to do but hoped you can do this one. :) A discussion on the issue was started 10 days ago (thus going over the minimum of a week) and a support consensus for the move has been expressed by 14 editors based on WP:Verifiability and WP:COMMONNAME. Only 1-2 editors have expressed an opposition to the move. EkoGraf (talk) 14:17, 5 April 2012 (UTC) Thank you for the closing. Also, about your point that not every argument should be replied...I usually don't reply to every argument, however, user Lihaas was constantly attacking my reason behind the request, indicating I was going against Wikipedia policy and also made a few comments that violated WP:Civility, among them telling me I ramble, and was borderline accusing me of POV pushing. So, you would understand that I felt the need to defend myself. In any case, the discussion has been closed and thank you once again. Cheers! :) EkoGraf (talk) 16:18, 5 April 2012 (UTC) This is regarding your recent move of this article. In moving the article, you left the remarks "This is consistent with other recent PRC -> China moves." I counted 4 opposes and 3 supports (including the nominator) in the discussion. While move requests are not a vote, and consensus can override numbers in the form of policy considerations, both the supports and opposes came up with substantive arguments, and no policy was implicated in the discussion. Rather, the disagreement was over the potential scope of the article and how to organize future articles. This being the case, I really don't see how "This is consistent with other recent PRC -> China moves" and how there was an indication of consensus (instead of "no consensus") to move the article. The China move was about common name; this discussion was never about common name, and the rationale given in the China move was never given there. Can you elaborate? I see an argument for moving, but it's not there, so your decision to move it with the explanation you give leaves me scratching my head. My opinion on closing move discussions is that in general, when consensus is not readily apparent, it is best to leave at least a short explanation as to why there is consensus, as was done at Talk:Kinmen.--Jiang (talk) 06:52, 7 April 2012 (UTC) I would recommend that you don't protect a talk page like that simply because the non-talk page is protected.

please forgive my newbie-nessI've just started working for a non-profit that needs some updates to its page.
