Ship Names in Wikipedia
Names of ships in Wikipedia don't have the periods used elsewhere. Examples, USS Saratoga (CV-60) and USS Illinois (SSN-786). Hope this tip helps! Your first few articles have been really good! TeriEmbrey (talk) 15:46, 13 June 2014 (UTC)

WP:Meetup/Chicago 9
Hey Samantha. I've finished a preliminary event page for Chicago's Great American Wiknic at the PMML in the header's link. There are a number of logistics we'll need to work out with and other staff members, but there are couple of questions we should get figured out soon: Anyway, don't worry if we can't get answers to all these right now. We can talk about them more when I come on Tuesday-- I should be there around 3:00 PM. Can't wait to meet you and the other interns! I, JethroBT drop me a line 02:49, 15 June 2014 (UTC)
 * How long should the event be? (We had the event last year from 10AM - 4PM.  Because this is a picnic-type event, we might consider gearing it more toward the afternoon, say starting from 11:30 AM to 3:30 PM.)  Are there other events at the library that day that we should be mindful of?
 * Will participants who specifically sign-up for the event be able to enter the library for free or at a reduced rate?
 * As this is a picnic, is it OK for participants to bring food to the library? Does the library have any restrictions on food that folks can bring in?
 * Can the library provide some light, lunch-type food for the event?
 * You mentioned that WWI- and dissent-related topics might be a focus for our editing during the event. Do you have any suggestions about specific articles we might improve or create during the event?
