UK Community Notice - IRC meeting
Dear Wikipedian,

This is the first of what will hopefully be a regular notice to help bring together the UK community so that you can be involved in some amazing things. To kick things off, there will be a UK community IRC meeting at 1800 UTC, December 7, 2010 to discuss the future growth and developement of Wikimedia UK. Without huge community support and involvement, the chapter cannot be successful and to get the most out of it, get involved.

For information on the community IRC meeting please go here

More to come about:
 * Wikipedia 10th Anniversary Events
 * 1st Annual UK Wiki-conference
 * Trustee interest meeting - an event for those community members with even just a fleeting interest in becoming trustees of Wikimedia UK.

Many Thanks
 * Joseph Seddon

Undeletion request
A couple of years ago you deleted a page for a DJ group called CantMixWontMixShdntMixDontMix for lack of notoriety and for being of a 'local' nature. Incidently since then the group have grown and play all over the world and at world famous festivals such as Creamfields, i would request that their page get undeleted so I can add the appropriate sources for you. This is a quick copy & paste from various places about them for a quick confirmation.

“They created a proper party vibe to the festival and had the crowd begging for one more at the end.”  - Creamfields 2008 (4clubbers.net)

"They've even got the name sorted: CantMixWontMixShdntMixDontMix. That name is as far from the truth as you can imagine - these guys know exactly what they're doing." - The Metro (Clubs feature Aug 2008)

“They had the whole tent heaving with bodies as they churned out the best tunes from all eras and musical genres.”  - Standon Calling 2009 (efestivals.co.uk)

“The highlight’s definitely been dancing at 4am to CantMixWontMix whilst the sun comes up over Lake Malawi. It’s been brilliant.” - Lake of Stars 2009 (Emily from Vancouver on BBC World Service)

Obviously, i'll be supplying proper links to the sources in the actual article. This year they partnered with C.A.L.M to invterview various DJs who were at Creamfields, all the interviews can be found of the CALM website. How can I go about getting the page undeleted so I can work on it?

Incidently, a google search of them would have to be of CantMixWontMixShdntMixDontMix as well as CMWMSMDM, the latter name being a shortened version of their name that they use for obvious reasons. I would search for the CMWMSMDM as that's what's being used more now and it'll pull up about pages and pages of search results on them.

Thanks in advance,

 * The normal process where an article has been deleted and you think you can overcome the reason for deletion is that you just recreate the article. Make sure you include citations to reliable sources to verify the article. Stifle (talk) 08:54, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your help.

Teramo Cathedral
Hey in my opinion this article is written in a very poor English, hardly possible to understand. Can you give it a look? DDF19483 (talk) 21:38, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi, I don't know why you're contacting me about this. Have you tried Content noticeboard? Stifle (talk) 08:56, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Bad Romance
Stifle, in light of the extreme stringent NFCC checks in the FACs, I had updated the rationale for File:GagaBadRomancevideo.jpg which is being used in the article. Can you take a look that it passes NFCC#8 strongly? Merry Christmas dude and hope happy married life is going on. — Legolas ( talk 2 me ) 12:08, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Seems fine to me. Stifle (talk) 12:12, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks Stile. — Legolas ( talk 2 me ) 12:13, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Sorry, as you may have seen from my editnotice and other messages I have been otherwise engaged with moving house. I'll look at them now. Stifle (talk) 10:25, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

User 767 approved on the ACC tool
Dear Stifle,

You approved User 767 on the ACC tool, but despite FunPika requesting a confirmation edit for security reasons, there doesn't seem to be one anywhere. Regards Alexandr Dmitri (talk) 10:02, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Oops. It was so far up his talk page that I missed it entirely. I will suspend the user pending correction. Stifle (talk) 10:07, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I wondered if I had missed it. The request has been sitting there for ages, but we held off because of the lack of confirmation edit. Thanks for suspending pending said confirmation edit. Regards Alexandr Dmitri (talk) 10:11, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
