O'Reilley Tag
There are a number of tags, like NPOV and disputed if there are current problems with the page. I don't think there is a template to note that a page is a frequent target of vandalism, unless there is vandalism so bad that it has been semi-protected. I don't think Wikipedia ever uses self-referential tags at the tops of pages permanently. -- SCZenz 07:53, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * George W. Bush is even worse, I believe. In the end, though, everything on Wikipedia is volatile&mdash;but most of it is also, on the whole, improving. -- SCZenz 07:58, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * It was a good thought, by the way. But I think permanent tags like that cut into the openness of the encyclopedia too much; plus that one really would have to be applied everywhere to avoid implying that some articles weren't volatile. -- SCZenz 08:01, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Oh, just so you know... Standard pratice on talk pages is to put your comments below whatever you're responding to, or whatever you said previously, like I'm doing now. Often we use indentation (using the : or * character) to separate comments (try editing this section to see what I'm doing).  The way you've been editing my talk page might confuse some people. -- SCZenz 08:12, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia Loves Art
First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia Loves Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there!  howcheng  {chat} 23:48, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Further, there are more than 20 proposals related to Watchlists in general that you may be interested in reviewing. (and over 260 proposals in all, across many aspects of wikis)

Thank you for your consideration. Please note that voting for proposals continues through December 12, 2016.
