As for me, the lovely weather this month has put me on the bike, looking for more places the good photographers haven't seen yet. Yesterday was Ft Lee, North Bergen, Secaucus, and Jersey City as far south as Journal Square for pix near sunset of the structure holding up the square, which isn't really a town square but an enormously wide reinforced concrete bridge. And I got sunburnt and sore and happy. Did you know the northwest side of Journal Square is a Little India neighborhood? I never suspected such a thng. Now, it's time for a few days at the computer, not so much to add to articles, as to select, process and upload my pictures, leaving the unbicycled to do most the picture categorizing, article editing, and other work that doesn't make sunburn. No more from Jim = $13/Month Car Insurance? Insurance deal just passed now allows you to get car insurance for $13 http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/4bc7d1641311b4aafem06vuc ___ Wikimedia_NYC mailing list Wikimedia_NYC@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia_nyc

Hi Daniel! I am truly impressed with your work. Wikimedia as well as Wikipedia should be thankful and proud. Very best regards, Marika Herskovic -Original Message- From: Daniel and Elizabeth Case To: wikimedia_nyc@lists.wikimedia.org Sent: Wed, Apr 14, 2010 9:40 am Subject: [Wikimedia NYC] Belated article work from WSTM2 I have spent the last couple of weeks working on articles related to historic buildings on the Upper East Side, related to (though not always using the photos from, nor always on the goals list from) Wikis Take Manhattan 2 (yes, even though that was a year and a half ago (although I did touch up and improve my own pictures from the Headcases team). [[Lenox Hill Hospital]]: improved pic, and found logo online (free image since it's only text). [[East 80th Street Houses]]: not on list, but used my photo and others by Jim Henderson and Americasroof to improve and nominate for DYK [[Park Avenue Christian Church]]: improved photo [[1000 Park Avenue]]: not on goals list; new article nominated for DYK [[St. Vincent Ferrer Church (New York)]]: improved and expanded with infobox (the first Catholic church article I've really worked on, believe it or not). [[East 73rd Street Historic District]]: new one in area (not on goals list) up for DYK. [[Union Club of New York]]: improved picture [[Church of the Resurrection]]: improved picture and added infobxo to article [[St. Jean Baptiste Catholic Church]]: improved and greatly expanded (I really like how this one turned out). I also moved a couple of Americasroof images (740 Park Avenue, the priory at St. Vincent Ferrer and one other of St. Jean Baptiste) to Commons as well. So, these actvities can yield long-term benefit to the project besides just the pictures.
