Template
User Pitt seems to be redundant with User University of Pittsburgh. I suggest redirecting; plus fair use imagery should not be uses in userpace.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 18:41, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
 * That makes sense, I'll redirect it. BocoROTH (talk) 18:46, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Pitt deletion
A Pitt related page, Oakland Zoo (cheering section), has been nominated for deletion. Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are important. Please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/Oakland Zoo (cheering section) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you.CrazyPaco (talk) 06:10, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Pitt Wikiproject News
There is an ongoing debate regarding the introduction of the article for the University of Pittsburgh. In search of WP:Consensus, please let your opinion be known regarding the debate and possible solutions at Talk:University of Pittsburgh. Thank you and Hail to Pitt!

Pitt template
The reason we removed the template banner images is that some lawyers at Pitt indicated they were uncomfortable with it so we are removing it for the time being. In the vary least we need to remove it from wiki commons and reupload it with fair use justification or something similar. CrazyPaco (talk) 04:21, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

City Game
I don't know if describing the travesty of basketball that was on display at Mellon Arena last night as a "fitting end" is quite the right choice of words! ;-) CrazyPaco (talk) 08:46, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Pittsburgh event for Wikipedia's tenth anniversary
Hi! Since you're a member of WikiProject Pittsburgh, I wanted to invite you to the Wikipedia Tenth Anniversary celebrations we're having in Pittsburgh on Saturday, January 15. During the daytime, we're going to be having a photo contribution drive where anyone can bring in their digital photos or prints and Wikipedians will teach people how to upload them and add them to articles, and maybe introduction to Wikipedia workshops as well. Then in the evening, we'll have fun at the Carson City Saloon. There will be free Wikipedia t-shirts and other goodies, as well. See the Pittsburgh meetup page for more details. I hope to see you there!--ragesoss (talk) 14:54, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

WikiProject Pittsburgh activity
WikiProject Pittsburgh is rolling out some new features (see our discussions at WT:PITTSBURGH). We are also trying to determine how many members are active, and interested in contributing to Pittsburgh content or coming to our real life meetups to discuss Wikipedia in general. If you could go to WikiProject Pittsburgh/Members and move your name from inactive to the active or semi-active group (depending on your interest in Pittsburgh issue and overall activity) groups, this would be great. Hopefully in a near future you'll also receive our first newsletter with various information on what we have been doing, and what useful tools are available. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk 20:06, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Teaching with Wikipedia Workshop at CMU (Aug 15)
Since you are a member of the WikiProject University of Pittsburgh, I'd like to invite you to the Teaching with Wikipedia Workshop that will take place at CMU on Aug 15 (this workshop is open to general public, and is a joint imitative of CMU and Pitt). There will be another workshop held at Pitt in the Fall as well. It will cover how to include Wikipedia in one's course (WP:SUP) and also how to become a Campus Ambassadors. Pennsylvania has currently only one ambassador (myself) and it would be great if we could recruit at least several more. Ambassadors help course instructors, showing them how Wikipedia works, and interact with students. Many current ambassadors come from the body of students, faculty and university staff; it is a fun adventure, and adds to one resume/CV, to boot :) If it sounds interesting, feel free to ask me any questions, or to come to the workshop. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk 19:33, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
