Hi ... I think you may have deleted a cat as redundant at that article that isn't. He was an American AQ member. He was also a trainee (not all members were trainees, i.e., went through training at an AQ camp). Thoughts? You can respond here. Best.--Epeefleche (talk) 01:51, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

I never said he wasn't. I just noticed a duplicate of the Category:American al-Qaeda members, and removed that. If the article on him had a duplicate of any other category, I would've removed that too. ----DanTD (talk) 02:13, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Transportation in Illinois categories

Hi Dan - What about bridges? I see WPMissouri puts the bridges in a transport category, should those be in that and also a building and structures by county category? --Funandtrvl (talk) 19:29, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Coney Island

I agree with you. I understand it seems like alot of work. I'm willing to help. I'm not a great writer, but I'm pretty good at finding references. Maybe we can team up? I don't have alot of time, I guess neither do you, but we could make slow, steady progress.--Work permit (talk) 06:43, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

NYC Wikipedia Meetup Sunday, March 21

New York City Meetup


Next: Sunday March 21st, Columbia University area
Last: 11/15/2009
This box: view  talk  edit

In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, review the recent Wikipedia Day NYC, plan for the next stages of projects like Wikipedia at the Library and Lights Camera Wiki, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects, for example User:ScienceApologist will present on "climate change, alternative medicine, UFOs and Transcendental Meditation" (see the November meeting's minutes).

In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and generally enjoy ourselves and kick back. And if the weather is good, we'll have a star party with the telescopes on the roof of Pupin Hall!

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.

DART split off

A given article should have a proportionate representation of its contents according to how much bearing each point holds on the main topic. Ridership is just one way of weighing proportion. By any measure, too much of the article is absorbed in light rail discussion.--Louiedog (talk) 03:48, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

2 or 3 per row

hi there,

you changed the gallery here 23rd Street (IRT Lexington Avenue Line) into two per row. I don't know what browser you are using, but on my Mac as well as Windows two images in one row leave plenty of white space left on the right side, you might as well put in three or even four images there. So what is the point in putting in two per row? Gryffindor (talk) 02:35, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

hi. I am not sure what you mean with "on the left side"? I am using Explorer 7. By making it two per row, you are leaving white space on the right side of the images where another one could easily fit in. Gryffindor (talk) 19:07, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
Ok I think I understand now what you mean, the gallery is blocking the box on the right, which forces it to move down to the end of the box to show, is that what is happening? Because I can't see it either with my Explorer 7 or Firefox. Are you working from a smaller monitor? Gryffindor (talk) 00:05, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
Right, it's forcing it to move down. Well, I don't see that problem with any of my browsers or systems, however if that appears on your screen like that, I'll leave it at that even though it looks really strange now on my screens. cheers Gryffindor (talk) 01:43, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
