Luisenstädtischer Canal
[edit]Hi, the current title Luisenstädtischer Canal looks a bit strange to me. I would suggest either the German name "Luisenstädtischer Kanal", or the fully translated "Luisenstadt Canal". The later form seems to be used in English, see Google Books. Markussep Talk 13:02, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
- Good point, will do. I've copied your comment and more detail response to Talk:Luisenstadt Canal so the reasoning is available to subsequent editors. -- Starbois (talk) 13:26, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
Probably the same goes for Gosener Canal and Nausdorfer Canal. Markussep Talk 13:22, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Bypassing redirects

You are invited to the first ever Reading Wiki Meetup which will take place at Copa, 76-78 Kings Road, Reading, RG1 3BJ on Sunday 23 September 2012 from 1.00 pm.
I hope as many people as possible will be able to attend so that we can make this a regular event. If you have never been to one, this is an opportunity to meet other Wikipedians in an informal atmosphere for Wiki and non-Wiki related chat and for beer or food if you like. Experienced and new contributors are all welcome. This event is definitely not restricted just to discussion of Berkshire related topics. Bring your laptop if you like and use the free Wifi or just bring yourself. Even better, bring a friend! Click the link for full details. Looking forward to seeing you.

You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
