List of cemeteries in New York City moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, List of cemeteries in New York City, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Pi day Thursday
Today after leaving the Wikidata editathon at NY Botanical Garden I walked up to Norwood and thought of you. You might perhaps have been interested, despite the somewhat esoteric topic. Tomorrow's meetup at the nearby Fordham U campus is less esoteric, or at least we'll be teaching something in which I'm less lost. Perhaps you would like to be there and discuss pictures or whatever other thing. Starting at 4 PM we will be chatting followed by teaching and coaching newbies; later will be eating and again chatting. Meetup/NYC/Fordham/PiDay Jim.henderson (talk) 02:05, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

South Bronx Greenway
Just curious why you backed out this edit. It looked perfectly reasonable to me. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:55, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Randalls Island is mentioned in the article, and it falls under New York County/Manhattan. I realized that I had not checked if parts of the South Bronx Greenway project extended into Randalls Island or if it stopped at the edge of the island. I was also distracted at several times today, so I decided after a few half-hearted edits to take the rest of today off. --HugoHelp (talk) 00:19, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , I don't know where these things are officially defined, but this article says that the Randall's Island Connector extends into both The Bronx and Randalls Island, and that the Randall's Island Connector is part of the South Bronx Greenway. How much of a WP:RS that is, I can't say.  Probably not a lot.  In any case, I think putting that edit back would make a lot of sense. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:48, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

photo request?
Hey, HugoHelp! I'm trying to get a couple of photos in the Bronx for Jenny Bui. She's a nail artist with unbelievably over-the-top nail art designs. I'm planning to nom for DYK and would be so grateful for photos of her art (and her, of course), which I understand is displayed at her salons in the Bronx and Harlem. Is that anything you'd be willing to do? I'd like to nom for DYK, but the stuff she designs is so crazy that I think it really needs a photo. I know it's a lot to ask for someone to go take photos inside right now. —valereee (talk) 16:31, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry, the photographs that I take for Wikimedia Commons are generally of outside structures such as buildings and parks. Nail design/salons are outside of the scope of what I am comfortable with. --HugoHelp (talk) 16:40, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , no worries, thanks! Not everyone's cup of tea :) Didja look at the link at crazy, though? They really are pretty over the top. :) —valereee (talk) 19:45, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * besides the need to go inside to shoot small things, when we outdoor photographers love the great outdoors and know how to handle big things, there's also the question of copyright. If these displays fit the legal definition of works of art, then they need an author's official release of rights through WP:OTRS. This process is a huge nuisance, which I've seen fail a few times, which is why I've never tried it myself. Artists can upload their own works of art to WP:Wikimedia Commons, surrendering artistic rights as we Wikiphotographers do, or post them on their own website with rights clearly, prominently, and permanently forsaken. Jim.henderson (talk) 15:37, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , thanks! Yes, I've had a few experiences with OTRS myself lol :) —valereee (talk) 15:46, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * As a digression, yeah, I've found the whole OTRS process extremely frustrating. I've gone through a few cycles of having the owners of something wanting wikipedia to be able to use an image, and putting them in touch with OTRS, only to have it go nowhere because the intellectual property owner couldn't figure out how to properly phrase their statement in a way that satisfied the OTRS folks.  Now, I realize the OTRS folks are volunteers, and just doing the best they can, but the end result was I ended up not being able to use a photo I took.  I've basically stopped bothering to go through OTRS because it's not worth the effort.  If somebody objects to a photo I took, it gets taken down.  Which I think is a shame, but I just can't devote that much effort to such a low-probability-of-success process when there's so much other work I could be doing. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:34, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , I received a ping regarding this page, although I don't see my name. However, I have arranged for permissions through OTRS many times. I agree that the process trips up many people. However, most people asked to provide permission will be asked once, so it makes little sense to walk them through a process they will never use again. What I have done successfully is to write out the permission statement for them, ask them to review it, and then copy and paste it into an email to send to OTRS, to make sure the statement is compliant. Even that eludes some, but I have had success. S Philbrick  (Talk)  20:31, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , can you show us a template for that statement? —valereee (talk) 20:39, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , I start with the text in the black box on this page:
 * Declaration_of_consent_for_all_enquiries
 * Then fill in with the appropriate information. If possible I obtain the image, upload it myself, add an OTRS pending tag, so that I can include the link to the image in the statement. S Philbrick  (Talk)  21:40, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * That is such a blindingly simple good idea lol...copy, paste into an email, fill in the information, email it to the person, and tell them to just copy, paste, email to OTRS. Duh. —valereee (talk) 11:14, 5 September 2020 (UTC)


 * , I did actually have one recent subject navigate OTRS without a hitch (fingers crossed lol) in minutes to upload what was clearly a selfie that had been used in other places on the net. So, yes, it can be done! But I'm frantically worried about this photo used in multiple articles on multiple languages and which is a Featured Picture, which means it'll eventually be slotted on the main page, and the Chinese scientist who uploaded it at my request needs to go through multiple levels of bureaucracy in order to do anything, plus has a language barrier. It's been months since I asked her to go to OTRS, and there's a volunteer at OTRS who is watching for her request, but still. —valereee (talk) 17:33, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Establishments in New York City categories
Does creation of 19th century categories and moving things into them help you or hurt you? I'm specifically thinking of going through Greek Letter Organizations... Naraht (talk) 21:27, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Please go ahead, and thank you for checking in with me so that we don't duplicate efforts! I don't have any intention to work on "18xx establishments in New York City" categories. Those categories will be more complicated than the their 20th century counterparts. For example - does a 1825 establishment outside of Manhattan (say in Queens, or Staten Island) fall into "1825 establishments in New York City"? Not an issue that I want to wrangle. After I run out of 20th century establishments in New York City, I might go through the 20th century disestablishments in New York City. --HugoHelp (talk) 21:37, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, 1898 (the consolidation was Jan 1) and 1899 establishments would be done the same way as the 20th century. I'm thinking specifically of Zeta Psi which was founded in 1847 at NYU, which itself was founded in NYC (first classes for NYU were near the then city hall for NYC) in 1825. And to answer your question, an 1825 founding in Staten Island does *not* belong in the same category as NYU which was formed in that city. I'd actually say its similar to the fact that something founded in Ankara in 1900 would go into 1900 establishments in the Ottoman Empire, not 1900 establishments in Turkey.Naraht (talk) 22:28, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as Stub-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. It is commonplace for new articles to start out as stubs and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the  [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk&action=edit&section=new&nosummary=1&preload=Template:AfC_talk/HD_preload&preloadparams%5B%5D=Jennifer_Guti%C3%A9rrez_(politician) help desk] . Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider.

Thanks again, and happy editing! >>> Ingenuity . talk ; 03:09, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
