Hello, thank you for creating the page on Valérie Lemercier. I was going to do it but never had the time to find references. Speaking of which, do you think you could reference what you typed?Zigzig20s (talk) 20:07, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Sorry if my reply seems rather wooden, I find it hard to be friendly and explain at the same time.
The reason I moved "Bolton Parish Church" to "Bolton Parish Church, East Lothian (i.e. church comma unitary council/lieutenancy area) was because just beforehand I had moved Church of St Peter, Churchgate to Bolton Parish Church, Greater Manchester (i.e. church comma county name), and to prevent confusion I created a disambig page, Bolton Parish Church (disambiguation).
However, not long afterwards another editor moved Bolton Parish Church, Greater Manchester to St Peter's Church, Bolton with the summary comment "Move to correct title per naming conventions for churches". This seems strange since Wikipedia uses the informal names for cathedrals - for example: Canterbury Cathedral is used rather than its formal title the "Cathedral and Metropolitical Church of Christ at Canterbury". Anyway, to reflect this Wikipedian convention I then had to edit the disambiguation page.
The one in England has the "Parish Church of St Peter, Bolton-le-Moors" for its more formal name and "Bolton Parish Church" for its informal name. Its website uses the informal name www.boltonparishchurch.co.uk, as does the local newspaper Bolton Parish Church organ back to its former glory. Even the locals in Bolton use its informal name and very few use its formal one.
I feel it is necessary to distinguish between one Bolton Parish Church and another.

Hey there! As a Wikipedian in Scotland I thought you might be interested in the Scottish Fairground Culture editathon taking place on 7 May at the Riverside Museum - drop me a line if you'd like to know more, or if you'd be interested in taking part remotely!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:49, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you are cordially invited to our next ScotWiki meetup. The National Library of Scotland is extremely accessible via train for those travelling from outside the city, and via bus for Edinburgh residents. Its visitor centre offers food, drinks, and WiFi and should give us plenty of room to meet and have a chat after work!

Hopefully see you there, Stinglehammer (talk) 11:23, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, at Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge we're striving to bring about 10,000 article improvements and creations for the UK and Ireland and inspire others to create more content. In order to achieve this we need diversity of content, in all parts of the UK and Ireland on all topics. Eventually a regional contest will be held for all parts of the British Isles, like they were for Wales and the Wedt Country. We currently have just over 1900 articles and need contributors! If you think you'd be interested in collaborating on this and helping reach the target quicker, please sign up and begin listing your entries there as soon as possible! Thanks.♦ --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:40, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. This month The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There is over £3000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. Wikimedia UK is putting up £250 specifically for editors who produce the most quality new women bios for British women, with special consideration given to missing notable biographies from the Oxford Dictionary of Biography and Welsh Dictionary of Biography. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate independently this is also fine, but please add any articles created to the bottom of the main contest page even if not competing. Your participation in the contest and contributing articles on British women from your area or wherever would we much appreciated. Thanks.
