Speedy deletion of Sonja Bernhardt
A tag has been placed on Sonja Bernhardt, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read our the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Senior Wikipedians
WikiProject Wikipedians aged 70 and older has been inactive for some time. The following three proposals may help invigorate this project.
- Change the name of this project to WikiProject Senior Wikipedians.[a]
- Open membership in this project to users who are at least 60 years of age and have made at least 50 edits in the past year.[b]
- Open supporting membership in this project to users who are less than 60 years old but have made at least 50 edits in the past year and support the goals of this project.[c]
Suggested goals for this project:
- To support collaboration and communication among members for the advancement and improvement of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia movement.
- To encourage older people, retired people, and soon-to-be-retired people to participate in Wikipedia both for the advancement of the encyclopedia and for their own personal enjoyment.
- To encourage older people to share their experience and expertise for the improvement of Wikipedia.
- To encourage older users to use their experience and expertise to help younger and less experienced users.
- To encourage participation in local and regional Wikimedia events.
- To sponsor Wikipedia meetings and classes at places where older people gather.
- To advocate for the elimination of ageism and sexism in Wikipedia and the Wikimedia movement.
Notes
- ^ The current name of this project, WikiProject Wikipedians aged 70 and older, is somewhat cumbersome and excludes participation by any users under the age of 70 years.
- ^ This current minimum age limit of this project is 70 years. A minimum age limit of 60 years should permit the participation of most retired users. The minimum activity level of 50 edits per year is arbitrary. A minimum activity level indicates continued interest. Members who do not meet the minimum activity level shall be moved to inactive status. Members who have died shall be moved to memorial status.
- ^ A new class of Supporting Members allows those users under 60 years to support the goals of the project. Users approaching the age of 60 years may wish to become supporting members in anticipation of reaching the minimum age limit for members.
Please add your suggestions for this project at Senior Wikipedians. Thank you, Buaidh talk e-mail 01:15, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

Elder Wikipedians
My proposal to make extensive changes to WikiProject Wikipedians aged 70 and older was a bust, primarily because many users felt that the term "Senior Wikipedian" implied a higher ranking Wikipedia membership. Therefore, I am making two less ambitious proposals:
- Proposal #1. Change the name of "WikiProject Wikipedians aged 70 and older" to "WikiProject Elder Wikipedians".
- Proposal #2. Drop the minimum age requirement to 60 years.
Please respond to Elder Wikipedians and let us know what you think of each of these proposals.
