Welcome!

Hello, MattinaMorgan, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Meetups

I have moved to Portland, no longer in Seattle. Try Dennis Bratland or one of the other users listed at Wikipedia:Meetup/Seattle/archive. I was never an organizer, just an attendee, in any case. Yworo (talk) 22:46, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Alright, thank you for letting me know, in any case! MattinaMorgan (talk) 23:05, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Planning a Seattle meetup

Hi Mattina. Just got your message, why don't you look at Wikipedia:Meetup/Seattle for former meetups and participants? I've just been to three-four of the U-District meetups so I'm not the most active local Wikipedian. I'll think for a minute about things that went well and not-well and reply again to this thread. — Brianhe (talk) 22:45, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Other editors notified of the possible UPS Seattle meetup encouraged to post below.

• OK, off the top of my head, things to repeat were, a central(ish) location near public transit and freeways, food able to be procured, a definite leader who creates advance notice of location and a set start time and end time posted here using the geonotice location-based notification facility, open-mindedness to meet people of different cultural/age/ethnic groups. Things to avoid, inability to locate the Wikipedians, drop-outs leaving just one attendee, unclear meeting purpose. I suspect you'll get more replies here as people get your invitation. — Brianhe (talk) 23:04, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Thank you! I'll try keep this in mind while setting up the event. MattinaMorgan (talk) 23:41, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia Loves Libraries

Hi, if you are interested in WLL be sure to look at https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia Loves Libraries.

What is the main interest that you have in a WLL event? How you organize the event will vary depending on who is invited and what their interests are. --Pine^✉ 06:06, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Adding a picture

I'm trying to update my university's page because the link to our seal is broken (which, frankly, is embarassing). However I have no idea how to do this.

• Several weeks ago, an IP editor changed the link to the image in the infobox without explanation, to an image that does not exist on Wikipedia. As a result, the old image was deleted under fair use policy as it was no longer in use. I have restored the old link, and undeleted the image. Let me know if you need any more help with this.
