re Streets of St. Louis, Missouri
Well, I would be, but I don't live anywhere near St Louis, so I don't know how much I can cintribute. Herostratus (talk) 02:51, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Missouri-rail-stub
Greetings! A stub template or category which you created has been nominated for renaming or deletion at Stub types for deletion. The stub type most likely doesn't meet Wikipedia requirements for a stub type, through failure to meet standards relating to the name, scope, current stub hierarchy or likely size, as explained at Stub. Please feel free to make any comments at WP:SFD regarding this stub type, and in future, please consider proposing new stub types first at WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals! This message is a boilerplate, left here as a courtesy, and should not be considered personal in nature. Note: the nomination was made on August 2, and was not made by me.&mdash; Train2104 (talk· contribs· count· email) 19:11, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Template:Delmar Loop Trolley


Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. — This, that, and the other (talk) 09:37, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Suggestion to pull WikiProject U.S. Streets under WikiProject United States
It was recently suggested that WikiProject U.S. Streets, to which you are a member, may be inactive or semi active and it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States. After reviewing the project it appears that there have not been any active discussions on the talk page in some time and the only content updates appear to be simple maintenance so being supported by a larger project might be beneficial. I have begun a discussion on the projects talk page to see how the members of the project feel about this suggestion. --Kumioko (talk) 00:30, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Meetup St. Louis
If you are in the STL area on the 23rd, we'd like you to come to our local St. Louis meetup. Details here. If you are interested, please add yourself to the list and our Facebook group. Thank you.Marcus Qwertyus   18:24, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

You're invited to Wikipedia Takes St. Louis!


Dust off your Polaroid camera and pack your best lenses. The first-ever Wikipedia Takes St. Louis photo hunt kicks off Sat, Sept. 15, around noon in downtown St. Louis. Tour the streets of the Rome of the West with other Wikipedians and even learn a little St. Louis history. This event is a fun and collaborative way to enhance St. Louis articles with visual content. Novice photographers welcome! Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 06:53, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

East-West Gateway Council of Governments
Hello,, and thank you for your contributions!

An article you worked on East-West Gateway Council of Governments, appears to be directly copied from http://www.ewgateway.org/aboutus/aboutus.htm. Please take a minute to make sure that the text is freely licensed and properly attributed as a reference, otherwise the article may be deleted.

It's entirely possible that this bot made a mistake, so please feel free to remove this notice and the tag it placed on East-West Gateway Council of Governments if necessary. MadmanBot (talk) 17:27, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not finished yet. Just give me some time. MetroFan2009 (17:37, 23 March 2013 (UTC))
 * That's not the way this works, I'm afraid. :/ Every time you hit save, you are legally attesting that content is free for licensing under our Terms of Use. You can't do that when you copy-paste from a source. Additionally, it is now 8 days later and the material is still not written in your own words. As little text as it contains, a substantial amount of it is copied from or closely paraphrasing its source. See duplication detector. This is one of the reasons why we do not recommend that you write an article by copying your source and attempting to incrementally modify it. I have flagged the article for close paraphrasing. Please read Close paraphrasing for some suggestions on rewriting. When it comes up again for administrative review, content that still follows closely will probably need to be removed. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:50, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Meet St. Louis area Wikipedians this Sunday
Hello! This coming Sunday, July 10th, a group of local Wikipedia contributors are getting together for the 2016 St. Louis Wiknic at Laumeier Sculpture Park. It's a low-key social event to chat with other Wikipedians. Grab a dish (or not, that's cool too) and join us!

If you know other folks in the area who might be interested, feel free to pass this along. We're hoping to gather an active and diverse local community of wiki editors.

Hope to see you there! —Verbistheword (talk) 16:33, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Des Moines Area Regional Transit


A tag has been placed on Category:Des Moines Area Regional Transit requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz Read!

Collaborating on Bi-State Development
Hi MeetroFan2009! I've taken notice of your edits to pages related to the STL MetroLink/Bus and was wondering if you'd like to collaborate on creating a dedicated page for Bi-State Development? I believe its deserving of a separate page from the Metro Transit (St. Louis) page that it currently redirects to. From your contributions I see you're not super active these days, so this may be in vein, but if you'd like to discuss working together please reach out on my userpage!
