Movement for Justice
Hi Dodger67,

I am writing to you from Movement for Justice in El Barrio with an earnest request: please respect our wish to permanently remove the link to our grant profile, which we have now removed two times. We would rather keep that information private for security purposes. Thank you for contributing to this page in other ways, and for attaching any other public articles written on our work and history.

Thank you for your understanding.

 * I have refered your request to an administrator. Roger (talk) 07:39, 26 July 2010 (UTC)


 * The information you want removed is not private. It exists on a publically accessible website. The article still needs an introduction. Roger (talk) 14:29, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Hello again, Dodger67,

I will repeat that, although you may have found a link that is publicly accessible, we at Movement for Justice in El Barrio would request that you will respect our wish not to publicize it. It includes very specific information about our the of our funds that we would prefer to keep as private as we can. I encourage you to problem solve another way to introduce our organization and its history. Again, we thank you for choosing to take on the task of contributing to a wikipedia page about the movement we have built and continue to build for over six years. Please be an ally by respecting our organizational needs and wishes.

Apostrophes
re:this — Eats, Shoots & Leaves is a must read if you're picky about punctutation. Socrates2008 ( Talk ) 10:03, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I wonder why the bot that fixed "1990's>1990s" missed also fixing "1980's". I've heard of the phrase "Eats, shoots and leaves" but I wasn't aware there is a book - on my shopping list now, thanks! Roger (talk) 11:06, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

Winter solstice
You recently reverted my edit on Manual of Style that changed "Winter solstice" to "Winter Solstice". According to MOS:CAPS, "Winter Solstice" is meant to be capitalised as it is the name of an event. Winter solstice and Summer solstice both use the capital "S" for solstice consistently, despite not using it in the title. I think it needs to be standardised. Do we use a capital "S" or not?
