@Megalibrarygirl: I'm not sure if you're interested in this event or not, but I am keeping an eye out for participating cities. I've requested this draft be moved into the main space, so please feel free to help expand this article as you see fit. Would love to see this article promoted to Good status as well, but realize that'll be a big undertaking much like Not My Presidents Day. Happy editing! ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:11, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

Contested deletion
Lakota/Dakota Standing Rock Sioux tribe?
What's the best Wikipedia article for linking "Lakota/Dakota Standing Rock Sioux tribe"? ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:51, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
Map
It'd be nice to have a map of cities hosting demonstrations. I'll start a list of cities for us to check once events have taken place:
Feel free to expand, but please don't strike out a city in the above list until: 1) there is confirmation an event took place in that city, and 2) the city appears on the map. ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:05, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
- Research/sourcing needed, but there are images at Commons from Edinburgh and Minneapolis. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:15, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
Tag
@JFG: This article definitely needs some updating and expansion to reflect what actually happened, and not was planned, but I'm not sure the 'advertisement' tag applies any longer. Do you agree? I don't want to remove without your two cents, since you added the tag. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:14, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
- @JFG: Trying again, thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:09, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
- @Another Believer: Thanks for the reminder. I see the hard work you are putting in those pages and I'm sorry that my position may sound harsh to you. Unfortunately the bulk of this article is still written in an overly promotional tone and delves into a myriad unencyclopedic details. Random samples from a quick glance today:
- Somebody drove a bus: Diane Lentakis, an organizer for 350 Connecticut and the Connecticut Sierra Club, coordinated several bus trips to transport people to the climate march in Washington, D.C.
- It was fun to make signs and have a drink: Boise participants could attend a happy hour party to make signs for the event at IRU Headquarters on April 28.
- Parade of non-notable people: Speakers in Port Angeles included Chad Bowechop, who manages the Makah Tribal Council Office of Marine Affairs, Jefferson County Commissioner Kate Dean, Clallam County commissioner Mark Ozias, Jon Preston of Forks City Council, author and activist Dianna Somerville, and Port Townsend Mayor Deborah Stinson.
- Folks watched a movie: The Monadnock Chapter of the Citizen's Climate Lobby also screened the film The Burden: Fossil Fuel, The Military and National Security at the Keene Public Library.
- In this state, I wouldn't feel comfortable removing the tag, and I could even think of other tags requesting a severe trimming of non-notable information. But I don't want to interfere further with your work and I'd rather let other editors weigh in. -- JFG talk 16:18, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
- Also, I just noticed the dozens of talk page categories: there is just no way this is a "high-importance Ohio article" or a "high-importance sociology article", etc. etc. -- JFG talk 16:20, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
- @JFG: Thanks for chiming in. I'll continue working on this article. Feel free to change the importance assessments for WikiProjects -- I haven't reviewed this page's history, but I almost never assign importance, so I don't think I'm responsible for the "high" assignments. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:22, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
- Ah, here we go, re: importance assignments. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:24, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks, I reverted that one. -- JFG talk 18:14, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
