Thanks for reminding me, Mary. Tomorrow is proving too close to the holidays for me, so I would like to reschedule for next Monday. I do have a few neat tricks to share, so let's call it "Neat Tricks" and meet up on January 9th, 11 a.m CST.
By The Way, today is Public Domain Day, and if anyone knows where to find the list of books published in 1927 (that come into the public domain TODAY), please let us know.
Happy New Year to all.

OK I see Zoom rescheduled for Jan 9-I'll try but day busy...Pam
Thanks, Jo. And here's a thread started a few days ago, by KevinS. It's only up to 4 pages of suggested titles so far, with only a few participants, so anything more we find should be added to that thread.knotyouraveragejo wrote: ↑January 1st, 2023, 4:34 pm Here's a start

Grace has made her own Wikipedia Page for an LV book and is willing to share her experience. Here's the discussion we had on another forum:

I can summarize my experience by explaining that each person who has the authority to accept/reject a new Wikipedia page has their own criteria in spite of the general Wikipedia recommendations.
GraceBuchanan wrote: ↑January 28th, 2023, 3:18 amI'd LOVE to!!!!! However I have an essential doctor appointment at that time.
I could spend a few months collecting and organizing my notes and refreshing my memory to do a structured presentation...or I could enjoy the informality of a Q&A session. I'll just refresh my memory beforehand. [rakes mats of cobwebs away]
Q&A on Thursday Feb. 2, 10 a.m. ET/11 a.m. CT/12 noon MT/1 p.m. PT might be an appropriate way to celebrate Ground Hog's Day. Each time I revised and resubmitted my Wikipedia page, I waited to see whether I'd have more weeks of "winter" as my page lied buried underground. At last Punxatawny Phil celebrated the posting of the page in the actual Springtime!
Is anyone else interested and available Thurs. Feb. 2 10 a.m. ET?
Or Friday Feb. 3 at 10 a.m.?
Or Wed. Feb. 8 at 10 a.m.?
Or 10:30 a.m.?
Sometimes 1:30 or 2 ET work well for me, but that's my second choice.
To all: My first choice would be to schedule Grace in for a regular 1st Mondays on March 6th, 11 a.m. CST, with others chiming in who have created Wikipedia pages. Second choice would be 1:30 one day in the middle of February. I don't do 9 a.m. at all (CST), but afternoons work well. And Grace is free to host her own Zoom Q&A, or someone can do it for her.msfry wrote: ↑January 28th, 2023, 8:17 amLet me transfer this over to the Zoom Discussion Thread, where people can weigh in.

I'm afraid I got my time zones backwards:
10 a.m. ET/9 a.m. CT/8 a.m. MT/7 a.m. PT
Corrected below

Assuming we’re doing the Wikipedia Page discussion in March, what is scheduled for the first Monday in February?

Based on a review of just one video of a previous meeting, I've come up with some more material that was never fully covered. So I'm psyched for our next Zoom session and have posted the Announcement, thus

Lets see a show of hands if you can make it, just so I know I won't be there all by myself.

I intend to attend and extend and transcend my abysmal ignorance and learn a few tricks and tips.

I think I'll be able to make it - I put a note in the calendar, at least.
