Hey there. After watching the
- Awesome! Excellent additions to a "further reading" list! I'll respond to the other things on the Talk page when I have more time to procrastinate too (but for now will say that I agree about the two article split).--Koeppen 21:11, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- Helping to write a dissertation on lindy hop sounds infinitely more fun than writing my own (which I'm supposed to be doing instead of editing Wikipedia). But maybe could switch for a little while? :-) --Koeppen 19:00, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
- June I know you are the person with whom to ask so I will. In your studies have you found any teachers or people that can impart knowledge of how to lindy hop and west-coast swing in the upper midwest (Perferred North Dakota or Minnesota). I have searched high and low and the only thing I can find is someone that teaches ballroom swing and eastcoast/jitterbug which I already know. Any help you could be would make me very happy. --Brian (How am I doing?) 20:16, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
Hi Brian,
Sorry, I live in Australia so I can't give you specific help on where to dance in that part of the states. Your best bet would be to try Yehoodi - www.yehoodi.com - and post a message asking for help there. PlainJane 10:06, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
Hello PlainJane, I realize you're in australia, but there were two forums representing their respective scenes that had created Wiki pages to discuss their scenes in a encyclopedic fashion. These wiki pages, swingmonkey and minnesotalindy, have both been deleted without discussion. Do you know anything about this or how I might discover more information about the deletions? Thanks for your help!

Hi Shawn, I don't know anything about that, sorry - I haven't looked at wikipedia in a few months - teaching time! PlainJane 05:51, 2 November 2006 (UTC)ß
I'm so glad you're taking this page on! futurebird 05:40, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
I think the amount of work I can do on those pages will depend on the time I have available... so that mightn't be much! PlainJane 10:43, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Could you write about this style? With Ike Turner's death it seems wrong the Club Imperial and the dance are empty pages. I'm just blocks from Club Imperial street address and will try and submit some to it's article including the KXOK Don Pietromonaco ("Johnny Rabbitt" persona) British rock invasion teen club it had. (Same basement area that Imperial Swing developed and Ike and Tina were singing in. The club has had many incarnations and is still a club) Alatari (talk) 06:07, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Survey
Hi PlainJane!
I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!
It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!
Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!
Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!

the guide to writing your first article.to help you create articles.You may want to consider using the Article Wizard
A tag has been placed on Yehoodi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. PamD 22:51, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
The article Yehoodi has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be
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. PamD 22:53, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
Nomination of Yehoodi for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Yehoodi is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yehoodi (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. PamD 23:26, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
