In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, look at our approval by the Chapters Committee, develop ideas for chapter projects at museums and libraries throughout our region, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects (see the November meeting's minutes and the December mini-meetup's minutes).

We'll make preparations for our exciting museum photography Wikipedia Loves Art! February bonanza (on Flickr, on Facebook) with Shelley from the Brooklyn Museum and Alex from the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

We'll also be collecting folks to join our little Wikipedia Takes the Subway adventure which will be held the day after the meeting.

In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and generally enjoy ourselves and kick back.

Any idea what happened to the text in the legend? --NE2 19:56, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

It looks like the wikimedia rsvg renderer is screwing up. The SVG looks good in inkscape, firefox, and opera. Wikimedia must have changed the version of rsvg they are using. Not sure what can be done about that though. --ChrisRuvolo (t) 02:12, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Njdot-logo.svg)

  Thanks for uploading File:Njdot-logo.svg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:27, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Discussion at WikiProject New Jersey

Hi, ChrisRuvolo, User:Nightscream and I had a disagreement over certain parts of NJ municipality articles; because the discussion could potentially affect hundreds of articles, we decided to bring the discussion to WikiProject New Jersey. I would value your input in the discussion, which you can find at here. Thanks, A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 14:44, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
