Advice on external links
edit{{helpme}}
I am wanting to mention local groups, such as scout groups on a page about a suburb Taringa, Queensland. Where these groups have websites, should I add them as links, and if so, should they be under the heading they are mentioned (I did this & they were removed), under "External links" heading, or as end/footnotes?
--RobBrisbane 12:13, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
- No. Don't add various and sundry external links to an article. If the group is notable, make an article for it. If it isn't notable, it doesn't belong in Wikipedia. - UtherSRG (talk) 14:51, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

You're invited to the Canberra WikiMeetup on 20 November 2011
editHi! We're having a Canberra Wikimeetup on 20 November 2011 at Siren Bar in Gunghalin from 2pm to 4pm. It's most just a chance to chat with other local Wikipedians, get a chance to go a different sort of bar (which is reasonably kid friendly, serves real food, and has non-alcholic options), and, if you're interested, learning more about what Wikimedia Australia and local GLAM projects are happening. We'd love to see you and any Wikipedia/Wikimedia/wiki loving friends you have there. --LauraHale (talk) 07:19, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
