Friday Jan 15: ONLINE Wikipedia Day NYC[edit]
| January 15, 6pm: Wikimedia NYC celebrates 20 years of Wikipedia | |
|---|---|
  Wikipedia Day is always a big day for Wikimedia NYC. While we cannot meet in person, we still have something special planned. We will begin the event with the debut of a new video celebrating our community. This will be followed by a panel discussion with some of the people you'll see in the video talking about Wikipedia's 20th anniversary, Wikimedia New York City, and the amazing work they do on Wikimedia projects. The event will be broadcast live via YouTube. Feel free to ask questions for the panel through the chat! We will also have some NYC wiki trivia you can participate in, with confectionery prizes.

Ways to improve Grace Roosevelt McMillan[edit]
Hello, DutchTreat,
Thank you for creating Grace Roosevelt McMillan.
I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:
Apart of being Roosrvelts grandchild no signs of general notability
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|CommanderWaterford}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.
Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.
CommanderWaterford (talk) 13:45, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
- @CommanderWaterford: My thoughts are editors of New York Times in 1994, Popular Phoography and LIFE in 1943 demonstrate notability. All three of McMillan's younger brothers have wikimedia articles mentioning in the lead paragraphs their relationships to their grandfather. (See Quentin Roosevelt II.) Her brothers had military careers which adds weight to their notability. Her photographic work was noted in several sources including her mother's biography written for the Library of Congress. Please share your thoughts on these points. Thanks for helping to improve the article. DutchTreat (talk) 14:17, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Map of Oradour-sur-Glane massacre[edit]
Hi DutchTreat! I saw you translated the map of the Oradour-sur-Glane massacre and you said that you would like to do a vector version. I have started the svg map but I have no time to finish it. I made the map and what I am missing is to put all the text on top. Would it be OK for you to finish it if I give you the svg file? Thanks--Ikonact (talk) 08:10, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Ikonact: Sure! I would be glad to collaborate. Since you have the basemap in SVG, then I would be glad to add the label layer(s). - DutchTreat (talk) 11:07, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
- I uploaded here. The labels should be added. I left the original image in a hidden layer for help. Please delete it when finished. Thank you for the support --Ikonact (talk) 21:38, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Ikonact: Got it. I will work on this map next week after I return from a few days break. - DutchTreat (talk) 12:57, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks, I leave it to you. I worked the map in Inkscape and I have created layers for your convenience. --Ikonact (talk) 09:23, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Ikonact: Done. The completed version uploaded yesterday to Commons. Let me know if there are any changes or corrections that you recommend. - DutchTreat (talk) 10:26, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

DYK for Stuyvesant Farm[edit]
On 22 September 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Stuyvesant Farm, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that when England moved to take over the Dutch colony of New Netherland in 1664, a delegation met at Stuyvesant Farm to negotiate the Articles of Surrender? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Stuyvesant Farm. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Stuyvesant Farm), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

| Thanks for your help on the Elizabeth Hayes article. I truly appreciate it.
