I gave him 55 hours so that we can have some quiet time. Thanks for bringing him to my attention! Cheers, Master of Puppets Call me MoP! :) 22:46, 25 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

I think the current length (55 hours) is fine. If it continues when the block expires, he'll get a lengthier one.   jj137 (talk) 00:05, 26 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Pittsburgh event for Wikipedia's tenth anniversary

edit

Hi! Since you're listed as a Wikipedian in Pittsburgh, I wanted to invite you to the Wikipedia Tenth Anniversary celebrations we're having in Pittsburgh on Saturday, January 15. During the daytime, we're going to be having a photo contribution drive where anyone can bring in their digital photos or prints and Wikipedians will teach people how to upload them and add them to articles, and maybe introduction to Wikipedia workshops as well. Then in the evening, we'll have fun at the Carson City Saloon. There will be free Wikipedia t-shirts and other goodies, as well. See the Pittsburgh meetup page for more details. I hope to see you there!--ragesoss (talk) 15:31, 1 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
