Weather Star 4000 Edits
I have reverted your recent edits to the Weather Star 4000 article because they seem to be biased points, which is unencyclopedic, and no citations were given. If you feel the info is correct, please try to add a citation to the article. Thanks. -ZLMedia 02:03, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
Proposed Deletion vs Articles for Deletion
I've noticed several of your AFD nominations in the log, and I see that they appear to have been Proposed Deletions that you converted to AFDs. Nothing in your nomination indicates why - usually, we get PRODS that would be declined based on the prod rationale, but which could be deleted at AFD because they fail GNG or what have you. So the editor declines the PROD for cause and then nominates it to AFD for discussion. That doesn't seem to be the case here; if the PROD tag just sat there, the articles likely would be deleted outright. Am I missing something? UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 14:58, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

An exciting month of wiki events!
Hello there,
I am pleased to say that April will be a very exciting month for Wikipedia in Washington, DC. We have a lot of different events coming up, so you will have a lot to choose from.
First, a reminder that our second annual Women in the Arts Edit-a-Thon will take place on Sunday, March 30 at the National Museum of Women in the Arts.
Coming up in April, we have our first-ever Open Government WikiHack with the Sunlight Foundation on April 5–6! We are working together to use open government data to improve the Wikimedia projects, and we would love your help. All are welcome, regardless of coding or editing experience. We will also be having a happy hour the day before, with refreshments courtesy of the Sunlight Foundation.
On Friday, April 11 we are having our first edit-a-thon ever with the Library of Congress. The Africa Collection Edit-a-Thon will focus on the Library's African and Middle East Reading Room. It'll be early in the morning, but it's especially worth it if you're interested in improving Wikipedia's coverage of African topics.
The following day, we are having our second annual Wiki Loves Capitol Hill training. We will discuss policy issues relevant to Wikimedia and plan for our day of outreach to Congressional staffers that will take place during the following week.
There are other meetups in the works, so be sure to check our meetup page with the latest. I hope to see you at some of these events!
All the best,
James Hare
