23:24, 22 March 2017 (UTC)The last Wednesday evening of every month, wiki enthusiasts gather at Bay Area WikiSalon to collaborate, mingle, and learn about new projects and ideas. This month we are meeting at Noisebridge makerspace/hackerspace in the Mission near 16th Street BART (temporary change of venue). The good news is this means that you can bring spontaneous guests if you forget to RSVP!
We allow time for informal conversation and working on articles. Newcomers and experienced wiki users are encouraged to attend. Free Wi-Fi is available so bring your editing devices. We will have beverages (including beer and wine) plus light snacks.
If possible, please RSVP as it helps us figure out how much food and drink to bring in. For further details and to RSVP, please see: Wikipedia:Bay Area WikiSalon, March 2017
See you soon! Co-coordinators
Ben Creasy and
Wayne

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006. ( talk) 20:44, 25 March 2017 (UTC)
Hi.
I noticed that you have some of the tip of the day templates on your user page, including the one day early tip, for monitoring. I used to have mine posted the same way, but found that since I didn't access my user page much, I forgot to keep an eye on the tips from there.
So, here's a tip about the daily tip...
On my talk page, I include the current tip and tomorrow's tip as a footnote at the bottom of my talk page, by inserting this following code anywhere on the page:
<ref>{{totd}}</br>{{right|{{today cell}}{{spaces|5}}}}{{totd-tomorrow}}</ref>
This floats the tips below all messages. Where they catch my attention everytime I check for messages.
Like this. [1]
To remove them from the bottom of your page, remove the line with reference, directly above.
I hope you find this tip to your liking.
Have fun.
Sincerely, The Transhumanist 07:31, 13 March 2017 (UTC)
P.S.: I like your floating cup of coffee. —TT

Please proofread the daily tip...
It's displayed below one day early. Some tips are obsolete. So we need new tips too. Please share your best tips and tip ideas at the Tip of the day department. Tomorrow's tip of the day... Please return the favor
When you make use of Wikipedia's desks ( Help desk, Village pump, and the Reference desk), please consider putting some time in as a volunteer by reading and answering some questions at whichever desk you think you will be the most helpful. Remember: the Help desk always needs help, and questions asked at the Reference desk span the breadth of all human knowledge. You're likely to know the answer to some of the questions. – – To add this auto-updating template to your user page, use {{
