[edit] U.S. Route 30 in New Jersey GA review

I have replied to the comments on the GA review of this article. ---Dough4872 16:52, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Luray Caverns

I'm not totally familiar with the reference style used in the above, but it seems OK to me — just one way out of many to do citations, which WP "rules" allow. I put that into quotes because, supposedly, there are no rules. Leave message on the talk page there if you need help on this. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 22:43, 4 January 2010 (UTC)


[edit] Speedy deletion of Template:US-tv-prog-stub

A tag has been placed on Template:US-tv-prog-stub requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).

[edit] Carpenter (surname) - request for help

Hello,

When you get a chance, could you review, make suggestions or comments on the Carpenter (surname)?

Any help would be appreciated. Some minor disagrement going on listing those with the surname Carpenter. For example: All "David Carpenter"s being redirected to another disambig page just for David Carpenters. Another example: Possible listing of Carpenters mentioned in various fiction being reduntant if there is no article in wikipedia even if such an article might be or could be pending.

Again, anything would be helpful to prevent an edit war or other bad feelings.

Thank you. Jrcrin001 (talk) 20:51, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Please check Carpenter (surname) and its discussion page once again. Thank you. Jrcrin001 (talk) 22:07, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for File:Cover Information World Review.jpg

Copyright-problem.svg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Cover Information World Review.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:38, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Moving sections on talk pages

Hi. I noticed you moved two sections at Talk:Domestic pig to the end of the discussion before adding your comments to them. I've not seen this done before, and I wonder why you did it? New discussions are often moved to the end, if they've been incorrectly placed at the beginning. However, older, existing discussions usually stay in their original position, and I'd have thought that moving them tends to make it more difficult to understand the order of contributions. It's also more difficult to spot your new contribution, as the whole section shows as changed, not just your bit. Regards, Richard New Forest (talk) 08:51, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Facebook

Hello, in Facebook the dates used to be a mixture of formats. I standardised the date format on MDY throughout, since Facebook is an American company. I see that you have now changed some of them, though not all of them, back to DMY, so the article is again inconsistent. I just wondered if you have some special reason for doing this? I personally don't really care which format is used but it ought to be consistent throughout the article, don't you agree? -- Alarics (talk) 07:08, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Richard F. Heck

Hi there

I noticed you've applied WebCite to the references in this article. I'm not sure what purpose they serve. DOIs are supposed to be permanent links to the articles. The WebCite-archived material is no different from what you might find at the abstract linked by the DOI. --Rifleman 82 (talk) 07:04, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

DOI links were meant to be persistent identifiers, to help isolate access to a scientific article from changes in URLs which might come from publisher corporate reorganizations or IT-driven revisions to the URL structure. They were not meant to be indicators of permanent availability of content from the original publisher. In the "What is WebCite" information at http://www.webcitation.org/ , the fact that the site was originally established as a preservation resource for scholarly material appears. In other words, publishers who might use the DOI standard were concerned about long term preservation and, therefore, established WebCite as a resource to ensure permanent availability. DOI and WebCite are not mutually exclusive or at odds, but rather serve different purposes. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 00:51, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for getting back. I see your point. --Rifleman 82 (talk) 12:34, 6 August 2011 (UTC)


[edit] Thomas MacDonough page

Greetings Ceyockey,

Since there is a Wiki Project Delaware rating box on the Thomas Macdonough talk page I thought it best to come here about an issue with that biography. I am in the process of rewriting the page. A couple of months or so ago I discovered that the entire article then was a cut and paste job, lifted from the Delaware Military History web site and was tagged for lacking citations. -- Now that the article is almost completely rewritten and greatly expanded, I would like to move the name 'Thomas MacDonough', spelled with an Upper-case 'D', to a spelling that uses Lower-case 'd' i.e. 'Thomas Macdonough'. This is the spelling used throughout the article. Since all the reliable sources used in the article, new and old, spell the name as 'Macdonough', I think the page name should also be spelled this way. I attempted to make the move myself but in this case it requires an administrator. If such a spelling is agreeable could you do this? Also, the page currently has a 'Start' rating from the Delaware project. At this point the article is nearing completion so the project may want to update the rating. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Gwillhickers (talk) 22:32, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Nomination of Starlab Group for deletion

[edit] List of fictional characters ... pending deletion

Hello,

You may be interested in the discussion regarding deleting a list article regarding fictional Carpenters. You have in the past created a List of surname Brown. I created a list of real and fictional Carpenter because other editors/admins told me to do so from the Carpenter surname page. Now others want to delete it. I was happy with the way it was and would be happy to merge the fictional Carpenters with the list of surname Carpenters. Any input, pro or con would be welcome.

See: List_of_fictional_characters_with_surname_Carpenter

Jrcrin001 (talk) 22:51, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

follow up:

Last year you provided input on the Talk:Carpenter (surname) page. And two lists were split off of real and fictional people. While I was on a wiki break the List of fictional characters with surname Carpenter was deleted without discussion. Later I requested the person to restore it. The page was then immediately cited as an article for deletiion.

Again, any input pro or con would be welcome on the deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fictional characters with surname Carpenter

[edit] MSU Interview

Dear Ceyockey,


My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, were it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.


So a few things about the interviews:

  • Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
  • Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
  • All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
  • All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
  • The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.


Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name HERE instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

Sincerely,

Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) 02:32, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
