The image of the Great Wall you added is an image of a little kid on the Great Wall. I don't see it as a relevant image for an article about a historical site. It seems extremely odd that you would want an image of a close-up of a person on the article, when the image did not show much of the actual Great Wall at all.--Balthazarduju (talk) 04:15, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Bailey Hall photo

Photo from reshoot

Hey - nice pics of Bailey Hall. Would it be possible to get the same photo without the people in it? Thanks dm (talk) 04:05, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

I did a re-shoot today. What do you think of the image on the right? For comparison, here is your original photo from the article. --Notyourbroom (talk) 03:48, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Associating categories between Wikimedia projects

Is it possible to formally associate categories between Wikimedia projects? For example, there is a "Cornell University buildings" category on both Wikipedia and on Commons. It would be great to be able to associate the two so that each one would link to the other.

Thanks for any assistance! --Notyourbroom (talk) 15:42, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, you can do that. Use Template:commonscat to link a category with it's equivalent commons category, and use Template:Sisterwikipedia to link a commons category to a wikipedia category. 19:10, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: Barnstar

Thanks! I was very busy for a while doing international finance (shoooooot me), working on the Obama campaign, and then applying to grad school. Now, my schedule has cleared up, I'm into grad school, and I need to something to keep my mind off of the 7 outstanding application decisions I'm still waiting to hear back on. So, from time to time, I continue to edit Wikipedia in addition to other pursuits. Check out User:Xtreambar/Nobel, which I started throwing together this morning, and Cornell University Department of History which I put together last year. In an ideal Wiki-world, I'd love most to see the List of Cornell University people cleaned-up, but my various ideas for it kept getting shot down.

Also, excellent work on the Morrill Hall article!--Xtreambar (talk) 00:47, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks-- I just found out about the Daily Sun archive today, and it makes this sort of research a lot easier. --Notyourbroom (talk) 01:18, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Cornell Nobelists

Ah yes. The lead is somewhat wonky at the moment because I took the article from List of Nobel laureates affiliated with Princeton University and did a "replace all" for 'Princeton' with 'Cornell'. --Xtreambar (talk) 03:44, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: Faulty Commons image transfer + deletion

 Done. Mmm, it is my understanding though that moving the latest version to Commons is sufficient (I see people doing that most of the time, keeping only the list of contributors). This is why I only check that both files are identical. -- lucasbfr ^talk 14:26, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
