WP 1.0 bot announcement
This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the WP 1.0 assessment system. On Saturday, January 23, 2010, the WP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the WP 1.0 project homepage. -- Carl (CBM · talk) 03:17, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
Tiffany's, dancehall
Have exposed to removal, and we have rested. My opinion - that more than 100 concerts of musicians which are significant the importance gives to a place. Opponents consider that sources weak and consequently such article should be removed.--Andrey! 21:06, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Event Venues articles have been selected for the Wikipedia 0.8 release
Version 0.8 is a collection of Wikipedia articles selected by the Wikipedia 1.0 team for offline release on USB key, DVD and mobile phone. Articles were selected based on their assessed importance and quality, then article versions (revisionIDs) were chosen for trustworthiness (freedom from vandalism) using an adaptation of the WikiTrust algorithm.
We would like to ask you to review the Event Venues articles and revisionIDs we have chosen. Selected articles are marked with a diamond symbol (?) to the right of each article, and this symbol links to the selected version of each article. If you believe we have included or excluded articles inappropriately, please contact us at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8 with the details. You may wish to look at your WikiProject's articles with cleanup tags and try to improve any that need work; if you do, please give us the new revisionID at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8. We would like to complete this consultation period by midnight UTC on Monday, October 11th.
We have greatly streamlined the process since the Version 0.7 release, so we aim to have the collection ready for distribution by the end of October, 2010. As a result, we are planning to distribute the collection much more widely, while continuing to work with groups such as One Laptop per Child and Wikipedia for Schools to extend the reach of Wikipedia worldwide. Please help us, with your WikiProject's feedback!

Scope ?
Are theatres, golf courses, night clubs, hotels and public houses all included ? Thanks GrahamHardy (talk) 00:23, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, same question here, over two years later. Notability and proper sources seem to be the hingepoint....I live in Thailand and there's lots of "notable" nightclubs and such, and cultural/music and sports venues....deciding which ones to do articles for is dicey, due to a paucity of sources in English, other than travel guides.Skookum1 (talk) 09:01, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
Arena at Gwinnett Center
I have a question regarding what is normally on a venue page. I noticed on Arena at Gwinnett Center there is a laundry list of concerts and events listed under major events and concerts. I'd assume this project generally shuns this type of info correct? I figured I'd check with the project before removing this laundry list. Shootmaster 44 (talk) 03:07, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
- Correct only somehow notable concerts (with sufficient references) should be included. The definition of "notable" is sometimes contested (ex. is a concert that was filmed for a DVD notable enough to be listed? etc.) but simply that the concert occurred at a specific venue does not make it notable enough to be listed. Ravendrop 03:51, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
- Greetings. I agree there shouldn't be a paragraph style list of events such as "X band played in 2012..." on and on. I don't know if it is appropriate either but there is a nice drop down box for an events list on the Greensboro Coliseum Complex article. It's highly informative for those who care for the info but non obtrusive for those who don't. Would it be OK to compile the lists of events from other pages into a similar box? I think it would be neat to have. UselessToRemain (talk) 21:38, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
Naming of Stadiums
When naming stadiums do we include the sponsors name if the stadium will be known to that title for only two weeks? What I am referring to is the 2015 Pan American Games. The athletics stadium will be known as the CIBC Pan Am and Parapan Am Athletics Stadium during the games but before and after them as Pan Am and Parapan Am Athletics Stadium. Any thoughts and/or opinions? Intoronto1125TalkContributions 23:01, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Leaflet for Wikiproject Event Venues at Wikimania 2014
Hi all,
My name is Adi Khajuria and I am helping out with Wikimania 2014 in London.
One of our initiatives is to create leaflets to increase the discoverability of various wikimedia projects, and showcase the breadth of activity within wikimedia. Any kind of project can have a physical paper leaflet designed - for free - as a tool to help recruit new contributors. These leaflets will be printed at Wikimania 2014, and the designs can be re-used in the future at other events and locations.
This is particularly aimed at highlighting less discoverable but successful projects, e.g:
o Active Wikiprojects: Wikiproject Medicine, WikiProject Video Games, Wikiproject Film
o Tech projects/Tools, which may be looking for either users or developers.
o Less known major projects: Wikinews, Wikidata, Wikivoyage, etc.
o Wiki Loves Parliaments, Wiki Loves Monuments, Wiki Loves ____
o Wikimedia thematic organisations, Wikiwomen's Collaborative, The Signpost
The deadline for submissions is 1st July 2014
For more information or to sign up for one for your project, go to:

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal
Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
WikiProject X is live!
Hello everyone!
You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

Tenants
There is a discussion at Talk:Nissan Stadium#Tenants which may be of interest to group members here. At issue is the inclusion of bowl games as tenants but not, in this case, the CMA Music Festival, though it can also include things like the Super Bowl, WWE, conference championship games, conference tournaments, etc. Any additional perspectives and feedback would be welcome. Perhaps a clearer definition of what constitutes a tenant (and thus should be included in the tenant list in the infobox) is needed. --JonRidinger (talk) 14:58, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
Demolition & Rebuild, new page?
Hi. I'm one of the editors for Parramatta Stadium, a sports stadium in Australia which is currently in planning for demolition this year, with a much bigger new stadium to be built on the same site, with an expected opening date of mid 2019. My question is with the stadium being demolished, should there be a 'split' of sorts, into an "Old Parramatta Stadium", and the "New Parramatta Stadium" or some other type of split. Is there any precedent? Macktheknifeau (talk) 11:49, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
Millennium Stadium listed at Requested moves

Citing events held at venues - advice?
Hoping someone can help - looking for advice on best practice when citing the kinds of events held at venues. For example, a (council-run) theatre local to me is used as a venue every year during a couple of (council-run) city-wide festivals. The "Venues" URL on the festival website aren't indexed by year, so a citation to that page would only bring up that particular year, or might not be populated outwith festival times; and referencing individual gig reviews could easily end up in over-referencing. Ideally I want a source which says "X theatre is / has been a venue during Y festival", but I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this issue, and if so what their approach was? Perhaps it's best to say "X theatre has played host to various artists including A, B & C", citing gig reviews for A, B & C? Lirazelf (talk) 11:47, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
