Thanks for your review.

"DC Tech" is the commonly used name for the technology center/business corridor based in Washington, DC and is as a result, also used to refer to organizations, meetups etc. It's unfortunately a bit confusing because it's not named something like "Silicon Capital." I will try to make that clearer.

DC Tech is equally prominent as many of the technology centers listed here with Wikipedia articles, and being the focus of the world's largest recurring tech meetup seems sufficiently notable, but I will find some more sources.

I don't think I did any "original research" other than summarizing other Wikipedia articles. Almost everything in the article comes from other Wikipedia articles about prominent tech companies in DC. kwud 02:01, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Custom signature fix needed

Hi there! You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. Changes to Wikipedia's software have made your current custom signature invalid.

The problem: Your signature contains a syntax error or obsolete HTML tags.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, you can fix your signature, or you can do nothing.

Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:

1. Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
2. Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
3. Remove anything in the Signature: text box.
4. Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (Do not click the red "Restore all default settings" button, which will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)

Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:

1. Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
2. Click the Learn more button next to the error to learn how to fix the error.
3. Update your signature to fix the error.
4. Click Save to update to your newly fixed signature.

Solution 3: Do nothing:

1. In accordance with a recent request for comment, all invalid signatures will be changed to the default, which looks like "Example (talk)", one month from now.

If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. Thank you! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:05, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
