Hey everyone I'm working on a project at Cornell University, in which a team of students takes a wikipedia page to edit. My group is working on the Schuylkill Navy. If anyone has any advice for how to attack this page please reach out to us. Thanks! Andrew, Eddie, and Janice ~~~~

I live in Philly, I go to Drexel, and I take images of things. My camera does a decent job, and I have access to some nice photomanipulation software to make sure things come out looking good. I don't have a heck of a lot of free time, but enough that I might be able to help out. Let me know if this sounds good to anyone. You can see some sample shots at the Eastern State Penitentiary, or take a look at my contributions over at the commons. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thesab (talk • contribs) 01:43, February 16, 2008

Hi, I was just wondering if there was a way to add February 4, 2018 (the date the Eagles won the Super Bowl for the first time) to the list of anniversaries in February in the Philadelphia Portal page. It's a pretty important milestone for the city and should be included, but I couldn't figure out how to do it myself.

Thanks :)

Hello WikiProject Philadelphia, it's been brought to my attention on my talk page prolific Wikipedian David Thomsen (Dthomsen8) passed away in November 2022. He was also a prolific copy-editor at the Guild of Copy Editors, of which I'm a member. As he was a somewhat active member of this WikiProject, I'm asking if anyone here would want to collaborate on a short obituary for The Signpost. I'm also going to ask at WikiProject Pennsylvania, which seems more active than this project. Feel free to get in touch on my talk page or here; I'll watchlist. Best regards, Baffle☿gab 14:19, 3 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
