Requesting deletion
[edit]In the future, just put {{delete}} on the page and an admin will handle it. PiRSquared17 (talk) 20:37, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
Evidence
[edit]WW, thanks for the message. I see some people are rushing to submit to the evidence page, but the way things look over there is still under discussion. Apparently the "under construction" sign was not large enough. I added one that will hopefully be more visible.
I agree in principle, and there are many other open practical questions as to which evidence will be gathered, and how it will be organized & presented. In addition to abusive blocks, there are (a) examples of heavily biased articles, usually with evidence that any attempts to correct the bias were reversed, (b) abusive behavior by administrators, (c) situations of harassment that were not stopped by administrators, and more.
I would like to involve User:GregorB and others with interest in the matter, so if you agree, I would like to copy both your comment from my talk page and this reply to the evidence talk page, and continue the discussion there. Thank you! Miranche (talk) 17:13, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
- Ok, the discussion is now here. Please feel free to change the heading as you wish. Miranche (talk) 18:53, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
WW, could you please take a peek at the evidence pages? I (and Gregor too, I'm pretty sure) would be interested in what you think about the format & instructions so we can begin. Thank you! Miranche (talk) 17:36, 27 September 2013 (UTC)
Wiki Loves Pride
[edit]You are invited to participate in Wiki Loves Pride!
- What? Wiki Loves Pride, a campaign to document and photograph LGBT culture and history, including pride events
- When? June 2015
- How can you help?
- 1.) Create or improve LGBT-related articles and showcase the results of your work here
- 2.) Upload photographs or other media related to LGBT culture and history, including pride events, and add images to relevant Wikipedia articles; feel free to create a subpage with a gallery of your images (see examples from last year)
- 3.) Contribute to an LGBT-related task force at another Wikimedia project (Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons, Wikivoyage, etc.)
Or, view or update the current list of Tasks. This campaign is supported by the Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group, an officially recognized affiliate of the Wikimedia Foundation. Visit the group's page at Meta-Wiki for more information, or follow Wikimedia LGBT+ on Facebook. Remember, Wiki Loves Pride is about creating and improving LGBT-related content at Wikimedia projects, and content should have a neutral point of view. One does not need to identify as LGBT or any other gender or sexual minority to participate. This campaign is about adding accurate, reliable information to Wikipedia, plain and simple, and all are welcome!
If you have any questions, please leave a message on the campaign's main talk page.
Thanks, and happy editing!

Queering Wikipedia 2021 User Group Working Days: May 14-16
[edit]The Wikimedia LGBTQ+ User Group is holding online working days in May. If you’re an active Wikimedian, editing on LGBTQ+ issues or if you identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community, come help us set goals, develop our organisation and structures, consider how to respond to issues faced by Queer editors, and plan for the next 12 months.
We will be meeting online for 3 half-days, 14–16 May at 1400–1730 UTC. While our working language is English, we are looking to accommodate users who would prefer to participate in other languages, including translation facilities.
More information, and registration details, at QW2021.--Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group 15:48, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Queering Wikipedia 2023 conference
[edit]Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group and the organizing team of Queering Wikipedia is delivering the Queering Wikipedia 2023 Conference for LGBT+ Wikimedians and allies, as a hybrid, bilingual and trans-local event. It is online on 12, 14 and 17 May, the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia #IDAHOBIT, with offline events at around 10 locations on 5 continents in the 5-day span as QW2023 Nodes.
The online program is delivered as a series of keynotes, panels, presentations, workshops, lightning talks and creative interventions, starting on Friday noon (UTC) with the first keynote of Dr Nishant Shah entitled: I spy, with my little AI — Wikiway as a means to disrupt the ‘dirty queer’ impulses of emergent AI platforms. Second keynote is at Sunday’s closure by Esra’a Al Shafei, Wikimedia Foundation’s Board of Trustees vice chair, entitled: Digital Public Spaces for Queer Communities.
If you have been an active Wikimedian or enthusiast, supporting LGBT+ activities or if you identify as part of the larger LGBT+ community and allies in Wikimedia, please join us in advancing this thematic work. We encourage you to join online or in person with fellow Wikimedians if it is easy and safe to do so. Our working languages are English and Spanish, with possible local language support at sites of Nodes.
Registration for the online event is free and is open until Wednesday May 10th at 18:00 UTC, for safety protocol. Late event registration approval and event access denial is at the discretion of organizers.
More information, and registration details, may be found on Meta at QW2023
