#Women in Translation edit-a-thon
Thanks for your interest! Based on the good turn-out and interest shown yesterday, we hope to do another edit-a-thon, yes! We're hoping Goethe-Institut will be willing to offer their lovely space to us for the next one. Everyone on the Dashboard for the event yesterday will be notified when we have another edit-a-thon planned. If it's not this summer then maybe next spring to coincide with a literature-in-translation festival that happens in late March early April. Artatra (talk) 19:28, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Arctic methane emissions into Atmospheric methane.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Syria in the 2010s


A tag has been placed on Category:Syria in the 2010s 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.

Parole camp
Hi friend. I came across your piece on Parole Camp in the new articles queue. In looking at it, I wonder whether the actual encyclopedic topic might not be Parole (American Civil War) instead of the camps themselves. It is something to think about, at a minimum. Keep up the good work! —Tim /// Carrite (talk) 00:50, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
