It looks like the Central Notice directing to Wikivoyage is down now,
right? Edits have slowed from the breakneck pace of the past week to
something more like 5-10x what we were used to, instead of 15-20x.
It's been fabulous to see the site growing in terms of contributors,
content, and readership, and I extend my own hearty thanks to everyone (and
there are a lot of you) who helped make this happen!
Now that we can breathe a little easier with regards to patrolling, we can
get back to talking past each other about templates and the weighty matter
of whether to revise our policy of capitalizing AM and PM ;)

Hi,
What's going on here?
http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/User_talk:SheikhTravel
It appears we got one of our first actual user indef ban without so much as
nomination?
I don't want to tread on toes, but this seems totally out of line with
current policy..
Ian.
Hey all,
Roger ( http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Rogerhc ) worked on a bunch of
options for the wikivoyage launch banner and posted them on
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikivoyage_2013/CentralNotice#Banner .
There hasn't been a ton of feedback (no one but DocJames) and so I
defaulted to making the one that Roger liked the most
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page?banner=WikivoyageMockUp5g . Bring
over one of the others isn't impossible yet but if we want to we should do
it soon.
I don't know what time people were expecting to actually 'launch' the
banner campaign but I assume it was probably soon or in the past so I'm
bringing over the translations now into the CN system and then will go home
(I'm at the office) and have a drink to give some time for anyone to give
last concerns :). You are also welcome to find other meta admins to launch
the campaign since once all of the translations are imported I'll put the
banner into the campaign and get it ready to start whenever anyone checks
enable.
tldr: Speak now or forever hold your peace :)
