WP:AFC Helper News
Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.
- AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
- The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.
Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future. Cheers, Primefac, via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:00, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Photos in Scranton
Hi Ukexpat. I am a user from the German Wikipedia. Right now, I am writing an article about the Penn Foster College. Although the college is accredited in Scottsdale (Arizona), its parent corporation is headquartered in Scranton (Pennsylvania). Unfortunately, there are no photos of the current buildings in the Wikimedia Commons. I found you via the the "Find Nearest Photographer" tool. You seem to be the nearest registered and active Wikipedia-contributing photographer with a distance of 48 km (30 mi) to the location. I would really appreciate it if you might be able to swing by in Scranton (925 Oak St) during the course of the next weeks and take a few pictures of the Penn Foster building. Please let me know if that is possible for you. Best regards --Florean Fortescue (talk) 19:13, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
- Florean, thanks for the message. Unfortunately, Scranton is not that close to where I live in lower Delaware. So I’m sorry that I cannot help at the moment.—ukexpat (talk) 21:22, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
