"Wikipedia's articles are no place for strong views. Or rather, we feel about strong views the way that a natural history museum feels about tigers. We admire them and want our visitors to see how fierce and clever they are, so we stuff them and mount them for close inspection. We put up all sorts of carefully worded signs to get people to appreciate them as much as we do. But however much we adore tigers, a live tiger loose in the museum is seen as an urgent problem." --WP:TIGER

Melbourne, FL

I put the section back in, mainly because although a bit gaudy it was all true, and all seemed to be valid articles.

Perhaps get rid of the arrows, move to the back?

The Georgia Page

Actually, now that I think about it, I went to the Georgia page and went through the links of the major cities. When I went to each cities page I checked out there metro status and Macon came in third behind Atlanta and Augusta.

Dated cleanup tags

Hi, thanks for your message, SmackBot does not generally add tags, but merely dates those that are already there. Regards, Rich Farmbrough, 12:11 7 August 2007 (GMT).

Catholic Churches

You offered some comments last week about a proposed deletion of Incarnation Catholic Church and School (Glendale, California). You correctly noted that the article was rough, as it had just been started. I have been preparing articles on some of the significant parishes in Los Angeles and wondered if you'd have a few minutes to take a look and make suggestions on format, content, info boxes, etc. One of your notes indicated that the number of members was key data, and I agree, but do you know of any verifiable source to determine membership for Catholic parishes? Examples of the parishes I have so far created articles for are: St. Andrew's Catholic Church, Pasadena, St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic Church, St. Charles Borromeo Church (North Hollywood), and St. Finbar Catholic Church and School (Burbank, California).

Brandywine

Brandywine is a general disambiguation page (which Brandywine Creek and Brandywine River) point to.

I went through all the Brandywine references and updated them to point to the appropriate articles. There were and are many pages referring to either "Brandywine Creek" or "Brandywine River" and not necessarily pointing to the correct one.

"Brandywine River" can refer to: "Brandywine Creek (Christina River)" or "Brandywine Creek (Cuyahoga River)". or the fictional (Hobbit/Rings Trilogy) Middle Earth river.

"Brandywine Creek" refers to at least 25 different ones in the U.S.

(5) Brandywine in British Columbia, (2) Brandywine in Nova Scotia, and more outside of North America ...

Rivers are officially disambiguated by their downstream_parent, for instance Brandywine (Christina River), only when that fails, then a reasonable civil sub-division. See WikiProject Rivers for more details.

If you undo my updates, you are on your own...

I am not particularly familiar with Vermont but I try to edit pages with correct links, sources, etc. Adams' page says the town so it has been fixed to that. Any correction to my corrections can be made. Thanks for the thanks!

Vandalism of articles

Please make a point of editing articles only when you are knowledgeable of the subject matter and exercise restraint in deleting relevant and valuable substantive content that has been contributed to articles by other editors who have donated their time and expertise to the expansion of knowledge through Wikipedia.

(from a newbie who never, ever, signs his posts! And who overwhelmed an article with a gallery of pictures despite having been told by two editors about WP:NOTIMAGE. Ah, well. )

Government of New Hampshire

I post-edited you, and then flipped the paragraphs to discuss cities separately. As opposed to the query in your Edit Summary, I think a link to New England town would lose context if merely stuck in the See Also section. But now I wonder whether it was already satisfied by the existing link to Town Meeting#New Hampshire. Spike-from-NH (talk) 23:17, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing that link. The NE town article is a bit torturous. Actually hoping that more eyes might help. i.e. might not help the NH article much! :) Student7 (talk) 00:49, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

My eyes won't help that one; it is an interesting collection of factoids, but it is already warned as "original research" and doesn't need another essayist. However, in view of what is actually in that page, I've moved your link to the end of the first paragraph with different introductory text. Spike-from-NH (talk)

In fact, I was so annoyed as the disjointed presentation, that I developed Vermont municipality from the article, and referenced it there from the NE town article. If all six states did this, we (or someone else) could rewrite the NE Town article, which seems highly desirable. Student7 (talk) 14:55, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

As New England is not a state, nor do the states have notable things in common except for incorporated towns and Town Meeting (which has its own article), I don't see why New England town exists. The biggest/smallest factoids could go into the articles on individual states. Separately, the municipal stuff I added to Government of New Hampshire might eventually stand alone as Municipal government of New Hampshire or something.

Pavlovsk

One of the purposes of the set index articles on Russian inhabited localities is to list the entities for which an article is not yet created but should be. Having those links makes the sets complete, generates the backlinks which help prioritize the articles to be created, points out to the correct title under which the article needs to be created, and, by aggregating all links in one place, prevents the proliferation of countless useless stubs which are basically one line repeating the description in the set index. Furthermore, there is nothing confusing about a red link. Please continue on that set's talk page if you still disagree. The only real problem with that page is that it is currently unreferenced; I will have that fixed.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); February 6, 2012; 14:22 (UTC)

Florida cultural events

Hi Student7 :-)

I now live in Saint Augustine, Florida, and plan to work with cultural heritage organizations and institutions in the area. I'm reaching out to you because you edit loads of articles about FL.

Do you have any interest in doing either outreach to cultural heritage organizations in FL or on wiki assistance to new editors from this sector.

In particular, I want to get the ball rolling planning Florida events related to Commons:Wiki Loves Monuments 2012 that will happen in September 2012. This years focus in the US is images of places on the National Register of Historic Places. While living in Kentucky, my husband and I took and uploaded images of places on the NRHP so I have a general idea of the process. I'm most interested in finding the gaps in coverage of historical sites in FL, and figuring out the best way to get these covered with local events. Maybe road trips to get some images in the outlying areas. We have a good amount of lead time so I think that this is doable.

Additionally, I plan to work with the Saint Augustine 450 Commemoration (a four year initiative to celebrate the founding of Saint Augustine and settlement of FL through educational and legacy projects) to see how that we can add value to their current events, and possibly plan some joint initiatives.

I'm also working with User:LoriLee, the U.S. Cultural Partnerships Coordinator for the Wikimedia Foundation, to create an listing of cultural organizations and institutions in the United States, and WMF volunteers interested in working with these organizations. The beginning stages of it are at Wikipedia:GLAM/US/Connect. We also plan to have State specific pages that link to the Wikiproject for each state.

Would love to hear your thoughts and idea, and to see if you have an interest in one or more of these projects? FloNight♥♥♥♥ 20:43, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for getting back to me. If you change your mind, jump in and help. :-) FloNight♥♥♥♥ 21:17, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Lyman Barnes/Rockledge, Florida

Hi-Many thanks for putting Lyman Barnes back in the Rockledge, Florida article. Barnes did practiced law in Rockledge prior to returning to Wisconsin where he was elected district attorney of Outagamie County and getting elected to Congress. RFD (talk) 14:09, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Many thanks for your comment. I am part of WikiProject Wisconsin. I would look at the recent changes there and sometimes have to revert vandalism. Also the anon editors do not add edit summaries or go to the talk page. Even register editors do not do this either. It is frustrating. Thank you-RFD (talk) 16:29, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

I agree with the "registered editor" comment. They really need their knuckles rapped, but I hate doing it too hard! They are reading my edits, too! I have requested some voluminous changers to "please remember the edit summary." This seems to help. Some otherwise responsible editors are "just on a roll" and forget. Student7 (talk) 00:30, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

Comment made regarding Barnes on the Talk page. Now that I think about it, is that how Rockledge got Barnes Blvd? Brian3030 (talk) 21:34, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

There might be books about the history of Rockledge, Florida and Lyman Barnes may very well be mention in the book. According to the CongBio, Barnes did practiced law in Rockledge for 5 years before he returned to Wisconsin. And my apologies for being critical about anon editors, etc. Today, I had to revert edits that an anon edit made to the Kathleen Falk article. The edits took out cited materials and no reasons were given for deleting the citations. Thank you-RFD (talk) 21:49, 28 February 2012 (UTC)d

Yes. Just today an anon editor de-linked, without comment of course, a link to a wrong person. Had to research it for awhile to discover this but it was a VERY misleading link the way I (or someone else, I hope) had it! They are right sometimes! Student7 (talk) 22:29, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

@RFD: Either way, he still does not meet Criteria #3 for Famous Persons per Wikipedia guidelines. Brian3030 (talk) 15:30, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

I will not pursue the matter. I was working on the Lyman Barnes article in the WikiProject Wisconsin and thought it was a good idea to add his name to the Rockledge, Florida since he did practice law in Rockledge for 5 years. Thank you-RFD (talk) 13:57, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

I'm not sure why my discussion page is being selected for this, but I assume Brian3030 is talking about WP:BIO which has criteria for an article in the first place. Barnes already has an article. He is notable. His inclusion here (or not) is done under Wikipedia:WikiProject Cities/US Guideline. I see nothing there that would exclude him. I DO exclude kids who went to school at Rockledge High and never came back. They would go under the school. Period IMO. Barnes is not in that category. Student7 (talk) 18:29, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

I'm actually referring to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Famous_Residents . "The person's notability must derive from the location OR the person must have derived the basis for their notability in that location OR the person must hold some significance to the location in general." Brian3030 (talk) 19:06, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Neat! I kind of like this! Wished I'd seen this 4 years ago!

Having said that, it is an WP:ESSAY, which means we can do whatever we want. Not a policy or guideline. Student7 (talk) 19:23, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

You're right, but it is some guidance and there does appear to be some acceptance of it. I tend to agree with the essay. I am going to do some research into Barnes Blvd in Rockledge and if it turns out that the road is named after him then I will add it back in. I think that is the best compromise.Brian3030 (talk) 19:31, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Besides places, here's where it would have come in handy years ago: Order of St. Gregory the Great. I wanted it reserved for Bob Hope, GK Chesterton, Roy Disney, that sort of thing. But I couldn't justify it and lost the war. Now it's everybody with an article who got the award. Not sure that essay would have prevented that, though. Student7 (talk) 20:56, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

CHSLD

You've gotten this article deleted, with apparent ignorance of the topic. Its a potentially notable topic, but its just a piece of a bigger picture. CHSLD has a subsection currently in the retirement home article on the French wikipedia, see fr:Maison_de_retraite#Qu.C3.A9bec, the paragraph on "Les CHSLD" describes that care level. fr:Centre d'hébergement et de soins de longue durée redirects to it as well. Clearly the topic deserves coverage somewhere within the context of our coverage of Quebec's healthcare or retirement care infrastructure.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 19:19, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
