Hey, we seem to have left the Alaska panhandle NRHP list-article merger discussion unfinished. By my reading, there was consensus for regrouping Alaska boroughs into state sections, but then we didn't implement it i guess, or it was undone. Could you please comment, if you have further info, at Talk:National Register of Historic Places listings in the Alaska Panhandle, otherwise i believe i or someone should implement the Alaska division into 5 sections, which was the consensus by my read. I also asked Reywas92 to check in. -- doncram ( talk) 01:03, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

I had the opportunity over the weekend to look at a variety of stained glass -- six different studios including both Charles Connick and Louis Tiffany, all created between 1900 and 1960. None of them had copyright notices. The Tiffany glass carried a typeset signature "TIFFANY STUDIO" about 1/2" high. The others were all script scrawled with a sharp point about 1/4" high -- hard to see even up close and personal. So your assumption that copyright would prove irrelevant was correct.Jim - Jameslwoodward ( talk • contribs) 14:20, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

I keep on seeing various categories of mine coming up for deletion or being deleted because they are "empty". Which is funny, because when they're created, they're usually not empty.
What safeguards are there against people removing articles from a category causing it to be deleted? -- MacRusgail ( talk) 15:38, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
Case in point - Neil Bennett (rugby union) was in the category you deleted, but it was removed because of vandalism by an anonymous contributor.-- MacRusgail ( talk) 15:44, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
In reply - Neil Bennett was formerly in Category:Manx rugby union players, which someone took upon themselves to remove from the article in question. I have since had to recreate this category, since you deleted it.
This is not the first time this has happened. For example, someone took umbrage to the fact I had categorised Abba Ahimeir, and others under Category:Israeli Fascists. This was renamed to Category:Fascists of British Palestine (fair enough, given it was pre-independence), and then deleted as empty by User:Anthony Appleyard!!! This is in spite of the fact that the people in question openly took inspiration from Mussolini, and described themselves as Fascist. Maybe the past is an uncomfortable place for some people, but we shouldn't hide it.
Why is there no safeguard against this? -- MacRusgail ( talk) 16:14, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
Your question from awhile ago has stayed in my mind - I'm no expert on log cabins, but his area is said to be the home of the American log cabin. See File:MortonsenCabin.JPG for old (1600s), well fitting joints (unusual), 3 part structure with a wavy roof. In part I was reminded by File:Schorn Log Cabin.JPG by the same builder.

I commented at t:tdyk about your new McClelland Homestead article; you may want to respond there. Just changing out word "renowned" to something used in the NRHP nom (assuming that is not actually used there) would probably make it fly for me. Is there not an online version of the NRHP document available, too? I verified it is not in the NPS Focus system, but i never figured out all the way, how to get into the newer PA state documents site. -- doncram ( talk) 17:39, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
Hey, i see, and am glad, that a DYK went through for McClelland. Also nice job with Turpin Site. I have absolutely never tried for a DYK with an archeological site; it looks hard to do a nice article like u managed there.
Update: About the same-name-same-county ones, i am still accumulating those here, including adding a Knox Cty, Ohio pair today. The dab created for that pair of nearby, apparently similar homes, is, essentially, a placeholder in lieu of creating articles or just one combo article about the pair of them. The placeholder prevents someone from accidentally creating an article about just one of them, unaware of the other, and it has merit of not being a stub article. As more have been turning up as i progress through NRHP dab cleanups, i am inclined to finish the NRHP dab cleanup and then raise the formatting issue question(s) for central discussion. This note just to let u know i haven't forgotten, and also to say that I am not fixed on how these should be done, despite my proceeding with one way of doing them pending discussion. cheers, :) -- doncram ( talk) 20:38, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

The "Construction Business Owner" page was deleted for being a "non notable low circulation trade magazine" and "Pumps" was deleted for the same reason.

, and it was deleted since it was an extremely trivial markup wrapper. Tothwolf's template was a 2k monster with lots of options, judging by the doc page, to which the reasoning from the TfD does not apply.It would be nice if you could mention your intention to speedily delete some entry on some Mongolian band on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Central Asia beforehand. WP Central Asia has the resources to address your justified concerns. We had the same thing some time ago with the eventually restored article on Lipstick (Mongolian band) that actually did have some claim to relevance of its topic written into it in the form that you deleted. Anyway, you should restore the article on Nomin talst into my sandbox, so that I can see what to do about it. And it would be greatly appreciated if you could begin proper deletion discussions and announce them on our project page for all articles within the scope of Wikiproject Central Asia.

I respectful question why this section was deleted. Your explanation was that "Wikipedia isn't the community events calendar"
I contend that other cities and municipalities have similar sections in their Wikipedia pages.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisbon,_Ohio#Culture
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbus_Ohio#Fairs_and_festivals
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dayton,_Ohio#Entertainment
Why, then, is it inappropriate content for the North Georgetown, Ohio page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Georgetown,_Ohio ?
I ask that you please reconsider this deletion. These events are non-commercial in nature and are part of the community's lifestyle.

Do you know whether or not Barnesville High School is within the corporation limits of Barnesville, Ohio? Also, how about Olney Friends School? I'm not sure where the corporation limits are exactly, but I have Quaker relatives who live really close to that school and the old Quaker Meeting House. Both the High School and the Olney Friends School have Barnesville mailing addresses, though that might not necessarily mean they are within the village's corporation limits. Anyway, I was just wondering. Well, next time I'm there I'll look to see where the official village corporation limit sign is located in relation to these two places.

The David Littell House page says that it is in Hanover Township, but you said, "Official location is Hookstown". Is Hookstown in Hanover Township? It looks like Hookstown is in Greene Township (according to its Wikipedia page and this Beaver County Pennsylvania Township Map). The house is located at 2039 Frankfort Road ( Pennsylvania Route 18) between Harshaville and a little place called Mechanicsburg. I got a picture of the mailbox in front of the house, and those were the numbers, and these are the coordinates: 40°33′24″N 80°24′15″W / 40.556728°N 80.404119°W. The Harshaville page says that it is in Raccoon Township, and this Beaver County Pennsylvania Township Map seems to indicate that Mechanicsburg is in Raccoon Township also. If that is so, then that would seem to mean that the David Littell House is in Raccoon Township also, wouldn't it? Anyway, the house is about seven miles from Hookstown, so it seems odd to put that on the Wikipedia page when there's a closer community ( Harshaville), and it seems the Beaver County NRHP list may also be incorrect if the house is really located in Raccoon Township rather than Hanover Township.

No, I'm not familiar with it. You've piqued my interest in it though. Did you check out East Wheeling? Maybe you did all of this research already...but I checked, and the Olin Fine Arts Center is located at 285 E. Wheeling St. and the Alumni House is at 335 E. Wheeling St.. So, the Sackville House at 309 E. Wheeling would be somewhere between those two buildings. It just so happens that there is a very nice Victorian-style houses between those buildings. If you check googlemaps, it's the grey-roofed one at the intersection of East Lane and East Wheeling. I wonder if that's it. I'll see if I can take a walk down there to see if that's it.

Ruhrfisch and I agreed that the "nearest city" bit in the infobox is unnecessary and removed them from all the state park and forest articles. So many of the parks are so far from an "official city".

I hope you are up. In this article, Talk:Coffee Party USA, a user I had a confrontation today with made an accusation against me that I am a meatpuppet. See this [2]. I use IE6, XP and am sure if Wikipedia is automatically logging me out or if it's the browser. In the case he cited, I was working on Norman McFarland in my userspace when it logged me out. This happens periodically. I will be editting, issuing a warning or lose my roll-back rights because the of the log-out issue with either IE6 or Wikipedia. user:MookieG did three reverts of a warning issued by another editor on a different user talkpage.

Hi. I just noticed you removed a {{
db-move}} template from
Charles Watson-Wentworth, 2nd Marquess of Rockingham.
[3] Can you please clarify if you were objecting to the move, or just making a neutral observation that there was no evidence of consensus?
The background to the move is a little odd as the editor that moved the article promptly replaced it with a redirect on the grounds that, even though it was a sourced article on a British Prime Minister, the subject was "not notable".
[4] The original move was against naming convention guidelines (specifically
WP:NCBRITPEER) without any prior discussion.

A tag has been placed on File:Luxor Sekhmet New Kingdom.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.
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 that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

You recently speedy-deleted File talk:2004 US elections purple counties.png per WP:CSD#G8 (as the image itself has been moved to Commons). However, the file's description box directly mentions the discussion of the image on its talk page, and said discussion is not present on Commons (the discussion page there is a redlink).

Yes, I've noticed this site and it is very, very tempting. You may have noticed that I've had some down time, but that is pretty much over. The dinosaur site is within easy driving distance, and the problem has been only psychological: it's in metro NJ. I've gotten used to driving in Metro Pennsylvania, and in rural NJ, but those folks in Metro NJ drive crazy. So in short, expect the photo within 10 days. thanks for asking.

Hello, I saw you removed my request for deletion on this image (the license plate). The tagging was recommended to me on the WP:N? board because I'd asked if the license plate image was in violation of some policy or guideline on Wikipedia. Anyway, if the tag wasn't appropriate, my apologies. – Kerαunoςcopia◁ galaxies 00:32, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
With regards to the move request that you rejected, I didn't think there was any need to get consensus since I've been the only editor of the article for the past two years. Either way, I'll continue refining the article until it reaches WP:FL status. -- Millbrooky ( talk) 03:56, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
The image File:Avey, Denis.jpg was deleted from the article Denis Avey. However, the rationale noted that it was a screen shot and was allowed per fair use for screen shots when they are used in conjunction with critical commentary about the TV show it came from. After that fact was added to the discussion with the original tagger, there was no response, so I assumed they were in agreement that it was OK. Can you check on this? Thanks. -- Wikiwatcher1 ( talk) 01:23, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
but unfortunately, no bones. This really was the only thing that really jumped out at the site. Mostly it looked like the neighborhood ravines that I played in as a kid. I did discover what is meant by a "Marl pit" - heavy wet clay. There might be some disagreement about including toys in a photo of the site... but I think they fit. At National Register of Historic Places listings in Camden County, New Jersey I'll use something a bit less over the top. At NHLs in NJ.perhaps a nature photo from the bottom of the pit. Advice would be welcome. Smallbones ( talk) 20:03, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

The Nutrition for Learning is a charitable organization, not a school, as is stated in the article: "Nutrtition for Learning is a registered charitable organization located in Kitchener, Ontario Canada. Nutrition for Learning became a registered charitable organization in 1997 and continues to support student nutrition programs in schools..." It's only sources (and as indicated in the talk page, the only sources I could find) are the webpage's own official page, and a non-profit registration with the Canadian government. Sources I found include twitter and facebook pages, and similar profiles created by the charity itself. That being said, if it still doesn't qualify under CSD, that's fine, just wanted to make sure. ialsoagree ( talk) 06:44, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
I've put the bio tag back. He's not an Olympic official, but an 'advisor'. And a search for '"Peter C Mann" -md -california -nutrition olympic' gives 6 hits - none of which appear relevant.

Hi, I noticed that you reverted all of my deletion nominations on May 10. Please explain why in more detail. I am fully aware that this is not Wiki-Commons and also know that some files are uploaded directrly to En:Wikipedia instead of just being reflected here from Wiki-Commons itself. All of these deletions were not violating any rights they were merely being done because they were all nonsense images of colonial empires when maps are available that are accurate such as File:The British Empire.png and File:Spanish Empire Anachronous 0.PNG among others. Furthermore, none of those images were being used anywhere and were mostly, if not all, tests back in the day before the master images mentioned previously were created and uploaded and hense have no longer any value of any kind.

Your assessment is not correct. When you removed the speedy you wrote Enough sources are present that this really shouldn't be deleted without an AFD. WP:BAND clearly stipulates the criteria for articles and this article, which has been deleted before, does not meet the criteria. I'll move it to a prod, but it should be a speedy based solely on lack of criteria, regardless of sources. -- Walter Görlitz ( talk) 04:45, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
A musician or ensemble (note that this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, DJ, musical theatre group, etc.) may be notable if it meets at least one of the following criteria:
Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases. Members of two notable bands are generally notable enough for their own article.

The city of Detroit document is here (the city recently reconfigured their website URL to www.detroitmi.gov). As far as I know, the house is individually designated by the city as a historic property (rather than as part of a district). I'm not sure why the "district" in the URL; it's possibly a misnomer or perhaps a way to signify that the surrounding grounds are also historically important (?).

You have a knack for solving this type of problems.

Haven't see you around, you must be at a Photofest taking pix again. I found a WYSWYG editor exists within Wikipedia. I recently switched to Firefox Portable because the new Wikipedia change was very slow in loading under IE8. While enabling Twain under the Gadgets tab of My Preferences, I saw a box for wikEd. I have been using it the last two days and it takes a bit to get used to. It puts some big blocks on any page you are editting (which is a minor headache IMHO) but it highlights text, citations, etc. You almost have to see it to believe it. I shrunk my edit box down to about 15 rows to keep everything on screen but that is also a minor pill if you ask me in terms of what you get. It seem to be a lot of bang for the buck. The only thing I don't like is that it offsets the edit box so I can't see the top of my screen where the Twain buttons are. Those buttons are handy for the welcoming function which I do alot of these days - next to looking for my "next great article I can recommend for a DYK". Man, oh man looking for articles is a blast. I float down the page looking for notable ones I can help promote. Thanks again for starting down this road. I am going to really put the wikEd to the test today as I am working on "next great new article" - User:Morenooso/Juan José Carbó workspace. I just saw another bug that happen on NawlinWiki's talkpage. If I grab something to paste into a talkpage like I just did with User:Morenooso/Juan José Carbó workspace, the markup is putting in huge letters. But if this thing works like a WYSIWYG editor, I will put up with minor stuff as I am building Carbó's article differently. I have all the citations offline in a Word doc. I wrote the article in a plain fashion and now am going back to do the citations. In the past as I mentioned to you, see black on black text with huge citation blockcites really wore out my eyes. I like my new method of typing plain text in the workspace article and building the ref offline because then I have it backed up. Firefox has a flaw or two too but it seems to be better than IE8. Firefox, however, sometimes times out too easily and I have lost data in the same manner as IE8. Well, I should be off as I need breakfast and then will commence work on Carbó's article. See ya! -- moreno oso ( talk) 14:41, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
User talk:Morenooso/Precous Blood workspace is my possible additions for Precious Blood. The article is pretty tight. However, it would be difficult to rate above a C. I believe it needs at two to three copyedits and some more online citations. I was tempted to be WP:BOLD and rate B/Low but that might a little generous. It's C+/B- IMHO. ---- moreno oso ( talk) 09:51, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
Would you mind looking at this userspace file I am working on ( User:Morenooso/Juan José Carbó workspace)? When I get home tonight, I want to finish off the citations from the Word doc I have offline. Then maybe on Monday you can do the DYK nom for it and perhaps think of some good hooks. It won't be much more than a Start class article unless the YtrikC_search bubbles up newspaper items on him. Mexico is pretty notorious for not being WP:RS if you know what I mean. BTW, one of my buddies at the dinner gave me the same opinion as my mechanic. He thinks the head is warped because he had a Toyota pickup do the same thing mine is doing. He recommended taking it Monday as he said I probably have like three or four more good drives out of it before it konks out. Going to be about a $650 bill. Just what I needed. This has really beat me down as prior to getting the minor treatment, I was hoofing by foot to take the bus places because I knew I didn't want to drive my truck too much until I got my mid-month direct allocation. Now, my first of the month allocation is shot. Two weeks, I didn't play my lotto numbers. First four out of the shoot were mine. That would been $500. My luck lately has been the pits.

Hey, i came across Talkpage-less Immaculate Conception Catholic Church (Botkins, Ohio) and went to create a Talk page to add WikiProject NRHP tag and others. It shows you recently deleted the Talk page, though, which gave me pause. How come? I didn't create that one, which would be Talk:Immaculate Conception Catholic Church (Botkins, Ohio). I think i have noticed you breaking out NRHP list-articles and not creating Talk pages for them, too, and wonder if that is accident or related. IMO, the WikiProject tagging is helpful and an important part of developing wikipedia; this has been driven home for me recently dealing with unreferenced BLP articles as part of wp:URBLP, where a recent focus has been upon attaching Wikiprojects to otherwise orphaned articles.

Can you come to my talk page, all the census images and New York Times public domain images are being renominated for deletion, this time the deleter is claiming the source statement is inadequate. I am not sure if he is demanding some sort of url to a website or is demanding that the source statement be formatted a particular way, maybe you can help sort things out. Links to the NYT archive exist but I think the name of the paper and the date suffice because links always change over the years. The NYT Times archive used to be hosted by Proquest and all those links are now dead. Each image already has the New York Times stamped on it as well as the date in text and on the images themselves.

So you declined the speedy deletion because the article is "totally different from the AFD version", something I can't verify, yet it has not a single source to establish notability. Since it has been under AfD I can't prod it. Would you care to create an AfD for it as it's pretty clear it should be deleted again?-- 137.122.49.102 ( talk) 14:15, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Long story, that one. It was removed from Peterson in the 19th c. and converted to a stable on a farm, where it was overtaken by a barn. When the barn was demolished, they found the bottom storey of the blockhouse still intact. It was disassembled and put back in downtown Peterson, the second story was added and a new roof put on. Not in exactly the right spot, but reasonably close. Bill Whittaker ( talk) 12:48, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

I declined the A7 CSD of this article a few minutes before you deleted it, based on arguments made in a hangon on her single, that argued that she's getting video rotation in her native Germany, and charting high on download charts.

Thanks for the comment. I found the discrepancy as I was uploading my pictures: I generally check both the NRIS site, via the Elkman tool, and the Nebraska State Historical Society website, when I'm writing my descriptions. The latter gave 1914 as the date. Searched further, and found 1914 given on this USDA website (is that where you obtained the Calvin Beale image?); and, in the notes for an edition of One Of Ours, the statement: "In 1914-15 the frame courthouse that had served Red Cloud and Webster County since 1878 was torn down and replaced by a new three-story cream-and-brown brick structure".
Unfortunately, I didn't find an inscribed cornerstone on the actual building, and I was there on Memorial Day, so I couldn't look for a plaque inside. Also unfortunately, the NSHS hasn't put most of the Webster County nom forms online yet. I will write the person in charge of these things at NSHS and ask her to send me a copy; she's done so several times in the past. Pending that, I suspect that your hypothesis of an older contributing structure is the correct one.

I'm a brand new user who is trying to figure out how to get started. I work for the Oklahoma Tourism Department and I'm trying to help bolster the information available about our cities and tourist attractions. I discovered a category of state parks the other day and was able to help add information about most of the parks listed. That led me to discovering a list of casinos in Oklahoma. The list is incomplete and of the long list that is shown, only three of the casinos linked to articles. I noticed that Winstar Casino (the 3rd largest casino in North America) was on the list but didn't have an article. I also noticed that the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino was missing. So I decided this was a list that could use help and tried to help. I clicked on the first red link - Cherokee Casino (Roland) - and did my best to create an article using the Article Wizard. I included the number of slot machines, the square footage and other factual information. I cited http://www.travelok.com as a reference and added the retrieval date of today. Travelok.com is the official travel and tourism website of the State of Oklahoma. Within a few hours, it was marked for deletion because it was not considered notable. You deleted it before I could even find the message that it had been marked for deletion. I've read the links that I can find about notable businesses and I don't understand why this wouldn't qualify. I want to help provide additional information about Oklahoma's casinos and get the missing ones listed, but I don't want to waste my time. If things are shown in a list or category, are they notable enough to have an article? Would the casinos of Oklahoma be notable enough? Jkalkman ( talk) 02:23, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello Nyttend. You tagged for speedy deletion a new page I had just started on the website "Spero News". I ask that you undo this. Spero News is a website which turns up fairly high on Google searches for certain news items. Spero News does not divulge anything about its editorial policy or indeed its editorial board. I created the page as a stub, hoping that other wikipedia users would find out more about this organization and fill in the profile. The relevance of such an article doesn't need defending in my opinion. Spero News is a news outlet. If you do a couple of Google searches on it, you will find it used by sites such as Answers.com. The public needs to know who owns this site and what its editorial policies are.
I note from your user page that you consider yourself a conservative Christian. I therefore can't help but wonder whether your speedy deletion of this page was politically motivated.
Wwallacee ( talk) 08:41, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
Nyttend, in reply to your comments on my User talk page: the article was a stub. The whole point of a stub is to give other users a chance to contribute to it before it gets summarily trashed. The fact that you have edited articles on Catholic subjects before has no relevance here. The fact is that Spero News is a conservative Christian news site which does not identify itself as such, and the existence of a Wikipedia article about it would provide valuable context to any reader of theirs, thereby contributing to a more informed public. The fact that Spero News is a news source and that it ranks high in Google searches constitutes evidence that it is a noteworthy phenomenon. Please therefore undelete the article.
Wwallacee (

OK, I will see if I can find out more on my own. What kind of criteria would you want met to satisfy you that this is in fact a relevant entity?

Answer.com also uses Spero News content. Wwallacee ( talk) 07:54, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

It is certainly acceptable to add an image of a building to a bio article about a person and it could be acceptable to add it to the town's article as well. Use common sense. If it is an important building in town add it to the town. Very likely it should be added to his bio and some text about it should be added as well if you can find a mention in a WP:RS.

Hi, you deleted this image a few days ago as an unused non-free file.

It looks like the picture is copied from a publicity photograph, and probably small because it was copied from a newspaper or magazine.

I think I understand the method of keeping original work but have a couple of questions in order to be sure I have fully understood the information from you. Where the work contains primary sources that are verifiable through a search online with a summary at the national archives is this suitable as a secondary source? This may allow me to add to the Barons and other articles, for instance reference to records at the British National Archives? Would a search result from the national archives that gives a summary be classed as secondary and be suitable to be citations on wikipedia? I am also wondering if the FreeBMD site would be suitable as secondary source if no other is available? -- PL.-Snr ( talk) 00:16, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Memebers who move away still stay in contact via the e-mail group. I feel the page should be undeleted, if possible.

FolderPlay was deleted using "speedy deletion" despite the fact that "A7" does not belong with this type of article (software product). No comment was given to my objection and the article re-deleted for second time.
The speedy deletion was originally requested for an apparent "copyright issue", which since then was completely resolved. The second issue, notability, is not a reason for "speedy deletion" (it is only for biographies, but not for article about software). —Preceding

How do you think we should generally approach naming conventions for the various U.S. Census unorganized territories in the western states. They are county subdivisions, and the normal method for civil townships is to include the structure "County, State" after the primary name. However, Census naming is such that the county name is usually part of the primary name, as in West Adams Unorganized Territory, Adams County, North Dakota. In that case, disambiguation by county is already accomplished. The articles titles are at risk of becoming too long. What about West Adams Unorganized Territory, North Dakota or West Adams, Adams County, North Dakota. I'm partial to the 2nd option. It adheres to the current consensus convention on naming geographic locations, but is more concise. Unorganized Territory is really not needed in the article title, since is more of a descriptive term rather than part of the official name. For example, we don't title articles Bismarck City, North Dakota or Blackhawk Census Designated Place, South Dakota. Any thoughts? DCmacnut <> 20:00, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello! I have requested a move for WP:Ownership of articles → WP:Page ownership. As you participated in the previous discussion, could you please voice your opinion again regarding this move, as it is my intention to restart the discussion with a clean slate. — HELLKNOWZ ▎ TALK 23:03, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
What's wrong with the source I provided to change the name? It is referenced from a city employee. CTJF83 chat 01:23, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
I'm looking at tackling the Franklin Township, Portage County, Ohio article and am starting with history. The question is, how do we address where a township has been reduced in size from annexation in regards to historical events? For instance, many of the early events in the History of Kent, Ohio were actually in Franklin Township as the city did not exist as an incorporated municipality with its own boundaries and government until 1867. Do we just largely duplicate the history where the two overlap? That's what I'm thinking, but interested to hear your thoughts! :) -- JonRidinger ( talk) 06:37, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
Could you keep an eye on User:Clipdesk? He's repeatedly vandalized Albuquerque, New Mexico and Portales, New Mexico, adding defaming material in violation of WP:NPVO and WP:OR to the articles. I've warned him 3 times so far (his June 21 vandalisms were reverted without any warnings posted on the talk page). Thanks. DCmacnut <> 21:18, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
On the page National Register of Historic Places listings in Northwest Quadrant, Washington, D.C., there are two listings for the same building. The common address is 1925 F Street, and one entry is 1925 F Street Club, George Washington University, and the other is Steedman-Ray House. Is this okay? I was recently in D.C. and shot a photo of this building Thanks, Jeffrey Beall 23:16, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

On June 30, 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article St. Joseph's Catholic Church (Wapakoneta, Ohio), which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check ) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
