WHEN The hunt will take place Saturday, October 10th from 1:00pm to 6:30pm, followed by prizes and celebration.

WHO All Wikipedians and non-Wikipedians are invited to participate in team of up to three (no special knowledge is required at all, just a digital camera and a love of the city). Bring a friend (or two)!

REGISTER The proper place to register your team is here. It's also perfectly possible to register on the day of when you get there, but it will be slightly easier for us if you register beforehand.

WHERE Participants can begin the hunt from either of two locations: one at Columbia University (at the sundial on college walk) and one at The Open Planning Project's fantastic new event space nestled between Chinatown and SoHo. Everyone will end at The Open Planning Project:

You're invited!

In the afternoon, we will hold a session dedicated to meta:Wikimedia New York City activities, review the recent Wikipedia Takes Manhattan, plan for the next stages of projects like Wikipedia at the Library and Wikipedia Loves Landmarks, and hold salon-style group discussions on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects, for example particular problems posed by Wikipedia articles about racist and anti-semitic people and movements (see the September meeting's minutes).

In the evening, we'll share dinner and chat at a local restaurant, and generally enjoy ourselves and kick back.

You can add or remove your name from the New York City Meetups invite list at Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Invite list.

To keep up-to-date on local events, you can also join our mailing list.

History of video game consoles (eighth generation)

I would like to recreate the article History of video game consoles (eighth generation). I believe sufficient information is now available to merit the inclusion of this article. The event itself is all but insured and development is already underway. Rather than relying on previous versions it is my intention to start from scratch and build a well referenced article using only verifiable sources.

If you could unblock the page i would be very grateful. I would also be willing to write the article first and allow you to review it. If i am writing the wrong person and there is someone else i should be talking to please direct me there. Ghym (talk) 18:43, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Hey Ghym, since the page was nominated for deletion three times (and "salted" to protect it from recreation), I suggest you start the page in your userspace first. When you think it's ready, you can take it to deletion review for the community to comment on it. Cbrown1023 talk 21:14, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
Sounds like a good plan. Thanks a ton. Ghym (talk) 08:15, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

Could you please send out the Military history newsletter (Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/News/Newsletter November 2009) to the different lists at Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/News/Options and the Active members list when you get the chance?

Hi! Any news on this please?  Roger Davies talk 07:37, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
Howdy Cbrown1023. I need to know within the next 24 hours if you will be able to get this out. If I do not here back from you by then I am going to see about locating another to get the letter out this month. Its nothing personal, its just that at this point the letter is almost 3 weeks getting to its readers :) TomStar81 (Talk) 02:06, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
We still need it to go out. As soon as you can. I was looking into getting someone else to do that before I left, but that fell through. Incidentally, welcome back; I hope your break was good. TomStar81 (Talk) 00:24, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
Sending out now. Cbrown1023 talk 03:36, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for getting this sent out. It was getting to the point of embarrassment what with December just about over. Merry Christmas to you, and happy new year as well! TomStar81 (Talk) 08:13, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
No problem, sorry it took a while. Cbrown1023 talk 22:30, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
