Mar 8: WikiWednesday Salon by Grand Central

You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community and visitors from the global Wikimedia Foundation for our WikiWednesday Salon by Grand Central, in-person at Convene 101 Park Avenue in the vicinity of Manhattan's Grand Central Terminal. No experience of anything at all is required. All are welcome! This is somewhat of a sequel to last year's Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Brunch in terms of the participants, though this time it is an evening event in a different borough. We may leaven the event with a few impromptu lightning talks, a Wiki-fashion show (yes, really!), and likely an afterparty tour. All attendees are subject to Wikimedia NYC's Code of Conduct. In addition, to participate in person you should be vaccinated and also be sure to respect others' personal space, and we may limit overall attendance size if appropriate. Wednesday March 8 WikiWednesday Salon by Grand Central (RSVP off-wiki at Eventbrite to attend in-person). 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm (Convene 101 Park Avenue, near Manhattan's Grand Central Terminal)

We've got several much less destructive mechanisms you could have used. A simple {{citation needed}} would have been sufficient. Did you really believe that it would be difficult to cite the birthdate of a former prime minister? Your mass removal of birthdates looks to me like disruptive editing to make a point.

The article Zamora the Torture King has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Tagged for sources for 11 years now. When I did a search, I found mentions in mostly YT videos and blogs.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Liz ^{Read!

	Women in Red 8th Anniversary
	In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap!

Hello, pburka! I was wondering if you might be willing to revisit this discussion at Talk:Wednesday Martin, where I've proposed replacement text which actually reflects what The New York Times says. If you (or User:David Gerard) are not interested in revisiting the discussion, I can add Template:Edit COI for review by another editor.
