You've used editorial guidance for articles about schools to judge a list of schools in an article about a city. WP: Schools doesn't directly pertain to this situation with the [[Erie, Pennsylvania]] article. I thought the listing added value, especially since finding the listings and correct names of the schools has not always been easy, but I could see where you might feel these are pedestrian data that might better be reserved for an individual Google search rather than a formal Wiki entry. But the record of names and types of schools in one town could be the first step towards additional research -- first there might be sorting of the schools into religious, charter, etc, then histories of the schools could be included. They're not notable, true, and WP:Schools does talk quite a bit about including the exceptional if the writer expects high marks for his/her page. All I know is that I've used numerous county histories written in the 1880s that included all local schools and a brief description of each, including headmaster, etc, and none were particularly notable. Such listings are helpful for writing genealogies and local histories. If you're interested in schools, you should consider restoring this section of the Erie page. It could eventually become a separate school-related page of some value.[[User:Pnoble805|Pat]] 19:46, 30 April 2007 (UTC) |

Revision as of 02:28, 24 November 2021
Truman's initial
Yes, it should be "S." - see Harry S. Truman, which has a section on that very subject. Stan 19:46, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- And as far as the ship's name goes, see her website: http://www.nol.navy.mil/homepages/cvn75/

"seiyuu" is not a reasonable term to expect an English-language reader to know
That is why a wikilink to the seiyū article is usually provided, however Kyaa the Catlord has been involved in a rather heated debate on the subject already.. Shiroi Hane 00:40, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
- Also, I could point you to many examples of other wikipedia articles where seiyu is used and noone is complaining. In an article where many "foreign" words are being used and are not wikified, I don't see any reason why reverting seiyu based on it being "esoteric" has any grounds. Kyaa the Catlord 04:16, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
Yep, it was vandalism. Somebody changed his name and virtually every number in the article (years, numbers of seats in any given election, etc.) for yuks, and somebody else changed most of it back but seems to have missed the "Killer" bit.
I think ya know me from LJ and Usenet, BTW, unless you just happen to share the same name as someone else I know. Bearcat 10:09, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
Snowbelt debate
Lake effect snow: Hey, ya reverted me edit. I grew up in Ashtabula County, Ohio in the NE corner of OH and I assure you that we get a inordinate amount of snow. No one considers it a suburb of Cleveland--an hour+ east of Cleveland. Mentor, maybe, not 'bula. Cheers. --Thadk 18:50, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
- Mentor, Kirtland, Painesville, Eastlake, and places like that were what I meant. Ashtabula is also in the snow belt, but isn't the western edge of it. I used to live in Lake County, and had friends who lived in Euclid, and when the lake effect snow would come ashore, there would be a profound difference in the snowfall level across a sharp edge measured in a few blocks. One side would get two or three inches; the other would get the full dumping that the snow belt gets. Susan Davis 18:54, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
Simoun
Hello, it looks like you are by far the most active contributor to Simoun (anime) article, so I was wondering, whether you share my opinion that the article is becoming too large and should therefore be splitted. If you do (and even if you don't), please, let me know on the article's talk page. Thank you. :) --Koveras 10:32, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
I'm the same user as commons:User:Susan Davis. Susan Davis 23:22, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the Correct Revert!
I didn't even see this naughty piece of vandalism! Thank you for reverting to the correct version!¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 20:48, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Bolger schooner question
This is completely Wikipedia unrelated, but do you have good shots of the interior and/or rigging of your Singlehanded Schooner? One of these days I'd like to put together a 20ish foot cabin schooner, and I'm always on the lookout for suitable designs to work from; the "singlehanded" part of that particular Bolger design is appealing, if the hull could be adapted to include a cabin, or the rig could be adapted to, say, a Stevenson's Vacationer hull. scot 21:31, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
WikiProject Backpacking
I'd just like to thank you for your support for WikiProject Backpacking. Now that you're a member, help us get this new project on the move by editing the project page, tagging related articles and developing templates. I'm sure we'll have this thing up and running smoothly in no time! Regards, -Leif902 21:15, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
"Honourific"
"Honourific" is not a correct spelling in any variety of English. Check your dictionary. — Wereon 18:17, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Erie PA Private Schools
You've used editorial guidance for articles about schools to judge a list of schools in an article about a city. WP: Schools doesn't directly pertain to this situation with the Erie, Pennsylvania article. I thought the listing added value, especially since finding the listings and correct names of the schools has not always been easy, but I could see where you might feel these are pedestrian data that might better be reserved for an individual Google search rather than a formal Wiki entry. But the record of names and types of schools in one town could be the first step towards additional research -- first there might be sorting of the schools into religious, charter, etc, then histories of the schools could be included. They're not notable, true, and WP:Schools does talk quite a bit about including the exceptional if the writer expects high marks for his/her page. All I know is that I've used numerous county histories written in the 1880s that included all local schools and a brief description of each, including headmaster, etc, and none were particularly notable. Such listings are helpful for writing genealogies and local histories. If you're interested in schools, you should consider restoring this section of the Erie page. It could eventually become a separate school-related page of some value.Pat 19:46, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
