Louis Freeh promoted
The article does still a couple unsourced statements and could use some expanding in some places but of couse its GA not FA. So I promoted the article. Tarret 19:00, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
The next time you make a free-wheeling change, you may want to have some idea about what you are editing. I know you are a history major and I don't know if it was a simple slip, but Thomas Jefferson's Democratic-Republican Party has no affiliation with the Republican Party at all. To write that it is, is a complete misrepresentation of information. I know that you advocate, "when in doubt it is better to delete" but sometimes it may be better to do nothing. Stevenmitchell 06:52, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the kind words
I appreciate your comments. As for collaborating on projects, unfortunately my time is very limited this summer as I am teaching a couple university courses in addition to my day job. Therefore, my Wikipedia usage will be limited to just sporadic edits for the next few months. Regards, --Jayzel 16:15, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

about deletion of Category:New York University units
Hi, Nunh-huh propose to delete Category:Yale University units, Category:New York University units and any other University "unit" classification. If interested, you can go to the proposed deletion page to discuss. For relevant discussion, see Category talk:Yale University units. Thanks. --Neo-Jay 16:21, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Access Business Group
I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Access Business Group, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Access Business Group. If you remove the {{dated prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

1.0/Featured
Hi, Paul. You asked my suggestions about articles to work on. I'm partial to articles on countries and continents. Can't do without them and most are in pretty good shape already. (But maybe you were looking for something more challenging. ...) Best, Maurreen 17:28, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- First tell us what kind of topic you are interested in? Then maybe I can help how to navigate. :) NCurse work 18:37, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- I've found a perfect job for you. :) The Portal:Austria-Hungary is under construction and would need maintainer. This work is just waiting for you. If you need any help, don't hesitate to contact me. I'm maintainer of featured portal medicine. Good work and enjoy Wikipedia! :) NCurse work 19:04, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- If you're looking for a low-quality, general article to raise in quality, why not start with something in Category:Start-Class_core_topic_articles? -Silence 02:56, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
- Looking at your contributions, I see you tend to like business/financial topics. We are very weak on business articles right now - if you could bring some major corporation articles like Ford Motor Company up to par that would be great. Some are listed here, or you could contact Wikipedia:WikiProject Business and Economics directly. If you are interested in collaborating on Dow Chemical Company (currently a real mess!), I'd love to work with you! (I'm a chemist, by the way). Thanks, Walkerma 03:36, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you for all your hard work. Yes, a great improvement with Dow, I've been watching! I think I prefer your wording of the napalm stuff over mine (and I missed the point you made about it!). I'd like to rewrite the Bhopal stuff (as the talk says, this is tangential to Dow itself, worth mentioning but in a better way). Once we do that, do you think we can remove the "neutrality" tag (see article talk page)?
I've been looking at Dow as well (I usually mull things over a bit before I write a lot, especially with a subject I'm less familiar with). There are a few things I'd like to put in, but I'd appreciate your opinions before I spend a lot of time on them.
- The seven major divisions of Dow, and a summary of their main products. To me, what a manufacturing company actually manufactures should be part of the "meat & potatoes" of any manufacturing company's article.
- I have a couple of recent articles from Chemical & Engineering News, including a lengthy interview with the CEO, I'd like to incorporate some of this into the article to indicate the current situation at Dow.
- From the chemistry point of view, I'd like to have a short section describing some of the major processes developed by Dow, such as manufacturing magnesium metal (used to build ships, aircraft, etc) from seawater. This process is still (I think!) the main way magnesium is made, and there is a lengthy section on the Dow process in the general chemistry text I used to teach from. I think Wikipedia is extremely weak on industrial chemistry, quite sad when you consider that such processes provide practically all of the materials we use in our modern world.
What do you think of these? Please leave comments & suggestions for me, and thanks again, Walkerma 16:51, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
Portal
Thanks for supporting the proposal to create a portal for U.S. government (and politics?) topics. The proposal passed, and I copied my draft over the the portal namespace. It's at Portal:Government of the United States. If you would like to help keep the portal updated, feel free to stop by the portal talk page or just go in and make any improvements or changes you see fit. In its current state, the portal is just a starting point. Even the portal name, is open to discussion. I'm not sure if it should be "government and politics" or just "government". -Aude (talk contribs) 02:59, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Hey, didn't notice Category:Publications of the United States government, I listed Category:United States government publications for deletion and moved everything to Category:Publications of the United States government. Thanks for pointing this out, --Surachit 03:34, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
TCSEC =
Hi Paul, Thanks for pointing out that the leading paragraph was so broken, I Improved it as per your request, can you please:
- Check it and remove the context label if you feel it is adecuate now?
- Can you move TCSEC to Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria and make TCSEC a redirect to it? I tried and ended up with TCSEC 1 wich now needs to be removed.
The article still neds morewikification but at least the intro should be good now.

Your move of Great Northern Railway (U.S.)
A few quick questions about this move: Did you gain a consensus on the disambiguation somewhere? Is there a discussion about this article's title somewhere other than the article's talk page? Are you going to update all of the pages that link to the old title to avoid double redirects?
There was previous discussion on this topic where the consensus was to use (US) and not (United States) or (U.S.) for disambiguation in article titles. Was there discussion elsewhere that I didn't see? Slambo (Speak) 18:45, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
- After searching around for a discussion, I don't see one, so I've moved the page back to its original title. Slambo (Speak) 19:14, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
I understand that you edited Restoration comedy in order to improve it, but I don't quite see why you removed the nicely and relevantly piped links here, making them point to redirects instead...? And do you see ethos and playwright as useful links in the context? Please compare WP:CONTEXT. Bishonen | talk 21:37, 29 October 2006 (UTC).
Bioguides
Hi Paul, good to hear from you again, I enjoyed working with you on the Dow article. How did the rally go (that was you, right?). Thanks for your posting- I think I'd like to include lots of lists in 1.0, but these are probably not right for Version 0.5 (we finish all reviewing tonight!). We are greatly expanding the scope of our project soon, using bots, and I'll definitely see if we can bring in a nice set of lists/articles like these. Thanks, Walkerma 20:10, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
NYC Meetup
We do have a meeting scheduled in two weeks, at Cucina Vivolo, on December 9th...so far, we could have about 30-35 people attend (crazy!). See details at Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC and feel free to e-mail me at cdthieme@gmail.com. I'd be definitely up to putting together a regular meeting WikiClub for the NYC and surrounding metropolitan area....great idea...one we definitely should bring up at the meetup. —ExplorerCDT 19:14, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
John Jay
Hi Paul. I originally attached the classification of American Episcopalian to the category, but realized that no other Episcopalian with their own category had a similar treatment (where their category was linked to personal attributes). I also did a cursory inspection of the categories named after politicians and found that a majority merely classified themselves as a category named after politicians. Wasn't sure whether it was policy but decided it looked better (not advisable to have too many subcategories in things like American Freemasons, etc.) Also, there were very few tags on the actual article itself, which was confusing. Eventually, I just thought it would run smoother. I don't know whether it's actual policy or not. From your northern neighbour. Homagetocatalonia 18:07, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
Bess Houdini
Sorry for the mixup about Bess Houdini. You did not delete her name from the Gate of Heaven Cemetery page. Her name was not listed in alphabetical sequence. I have since placed her name in alphabetical sequence on the page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Anthony22 (talk • contribs) 00:53, 10 December 2006 (UTC).

Category:Panhandles
LOL. Sorry, I just saw your addition of this to Alaska Panhandle and could only guffaw....long ago the National Lampoon published a routes map for "Panhandle Airways", which connected only airports in the various panhandles around the Union; Alaska's, Idaho's, Utah's, Texas', Oklahoma's, Nebraska's, Tennessee's, West Virginia's, Florida's....I think even Mobile made it onto the map as the "Alabama Panhandle". Can't remember which other states but they went all-out on it; not sure which issue but I couldn't help but think of it when I saw there's a Panhandles Category here....Skookum1 08:29, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Oh goodness I wish I was in Vancouver
NO, you don't. We're having a Pineapple Express combined with heavy winds, and it looks like a monsoon out there (just like it did last night). This is about the twelfth major storm of this season so far and it's been nasty; we're expecting more. Balmy? Well, yesterday for a few benign hours before the next wave of rain came in, but....I can't wait for April...May....June? We're never sure when the sun's going to come back around here. Sometimes it doesn't (e.g. summer of '82, which I remember too well....ever seen a .5'-1.5' slug? 20, 30, 100 of them at once, on windows, building walls? etc?Skookum1 17:21, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- In the context of climate change, we've been joking this fall/winter that it's a bad sign when "they" (TO and Mtl, and by default NYC) are getting our weather and we're getting this, "this" meaning the new escalation in storm activity. Blame it on El Nina - I hope, meaning that then it's not at least going to be a regular annual occurrence. We've been smug here with climate change thinking that we were just going to get warmer and wetter ("wetter" is a very relative term here); now it turns out we may be due for increasingly harsh weather. It's a few hours later now and it's nice and sunny outside - one nice thing about the Pineapple Express is it's a subtropical airmass; once the rain blows through there's (sometimes) some nice sunshine on its tail end. Not always though....Skookum1 20:31, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Categories for New Jersey cities
Re Plainfield, New Jersey, Please note that categories that apply to the city, not to everything in the city (e.g., 1869 establishments, Cities in New Jersey, New Jersey Urban Enterprise Zone and United States communities with African American majority populations) belong on the Plainfield article, not on the Plainfield category. Including them on the Plainfield category would imply that everything in the Plainfield category, say Plainfield Teacher's College, is a City, is a UEZ and has an African American majority, which would be nonsensical. The only category that belongs there is the Union County category; after all, everything in Plainfield is in (or related to) Union County. Alansohn 07:21, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
Honeywell cat
Ok, I'm puzzled. It's fine to create a new Honeywell category, but why did you delete all the others from Honeywell? I've restored them, as they're all legit cats. Akradecki 15:07, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- Not so. See Wikipedia:Categorization and subcategories. The rule of thumb that I think you thinking of is parent and sub categories, and typicially you only have an article in one place, but, as the guideline says, is not at all a hard and fast rule, and there are plenty of cases where you want it in both. The cats that Honeywell is listed in are major navigational aids, and by removing it from them you impede users' utilize the system as free as possible. Akradecki 15:13, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
We just went through this, and the proposed deletion was over ruled Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/SPURA. Is Wikipedia supposed to be a constant debate?Juda S. Engelmayer 17:54, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your reply, but if you read the referneces and the article, it is not about Seward Park, it is about the largest area of undeveloped property in NYC going on 35 years already located in the vicinity of Seward Park. The NY Times articles should help explain that. Juda S. Engelmayer 18:00, 12 February 2007 (UTC) I'm not taking it personally, I am just frustrated that's all. Wikipedia can be a full time job if you let it, and this one already passed its test. Juda S. Engelmayer 18:03, 12 February 2007 (UTC) Maybe the article on Seward Park needs creating.

Advice requested
Hi Paul. I've been attempting to overview and tidy up the geography cats which involve the places where people live. There appear to be two useful ways of doing it - by region, and by size. Organising by size is difficult because User:Hmains uses the term settlements to cover all sizes of communities, and has altered dictionary definitions [1] to fit his own understanding of the term - [2]. However, community appears to be the term used most often to describe the places where people live, regardless of size. This is the definition of community - [3]. Hmains has reverted much of my work, and insists on settlements being the term we should use - basing it on this decision, which was a declined proposal to rename Settlements by region to Populated places by region. What do you think? Is settlement the appropriate term for covering human communities ranging from well established cities down to refuge camps? Is Human community a viable alternative? Are there other choices? I have started a discussion here and here, with the above wording, but no response as yet. I have left this message on the talk pages of active Geography Project members. And then on this page. I am a bit lost as the best place to discuss this issue. I don't want to delete or rename any category. And I don't want to get into a revert war. I'd like an open debate to reach sensible consensus. I'm now leaving this message on the pages of WikiProject Category members. Can you advise? SilkTork 19:56, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Cateogory:National Reconnaissance Office satellites
It appears that you have recently begun populating Category:National Reconnaissance Office satellites with entries from Category:Reconnaissance satellites of the United States. With a very few pre-1962 exceptions, all of the United States' reconnaissance satellites (and all of their military satellites) have been built for and operated by the National Reconnaissance Office. How is the new category different? Whosasking 00:58, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
- You may be right, wanting to categorize Air Force satellites separately from Navy satellites; the NRO launched (and reportedly operates) them all. Sourcing who claims which satellite will be a chore, though. Whosasking 02:35, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
Trying to find a good place to revert back to in the history, I came across your edit of 07:21, 23 April 2007. Did you mean to delete that many categories? In reverting I ended up restoring the whole set deleted. Could you look this over again? Shenme 05:04, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Summer collaboration?
Paul, Hi! Last summer we collaborated on turning Dow Chemical Company into something resembling an article. I was going to suggest we do the same again this summer - how about writing an article on Total Chemicals, on which I have some material. It employs 44,680 people, has sales of $24bn and it's the chemicals division of Total S.A.. Or I'd be happy to work on a different chemical company of your choosing. Would you be able to work on the business side again, and I'll have a go at the chemistry side? Even the English article on the parent company Total S.A. (the fourth largest oil company in the world!) is an embarrassment, maybe I'll see if someone can translate the French article on that. Hope you're doing well, Walkerma 20:37, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
- Paul, you may be interested in this article in the Times, which mentions that Dow edited their own article. Walkerma 19:38, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
Connirae Andreas
Hi. I've seen that your field of interest (at least one of them) is on NLP Now I have written an article on Connirae Andreas and there's been raised the question whether she is notable enough for an article on Wikipedia.

Major general category et al
Please see the CfD dicussion here and here. Breaking military personnel down by rank has been debated before, with the consensus being that it isn't a good idea. If you wnat to change the West Point graduates category to US Military alumni, that's cool, I'd support it, but it's much better (and easier) to do it thru the category renaming process.--Nobunaga24 03:54, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Princeton College
Hello PaulHanson. I noticed that you created Category:Princeton College alumni. As far as I know, Princeton was founded as the College of New Jersey in 1746 and in 1896, its name was changed to Princeton University. When was it called 'Princeton College'? Regards, Masterpiece2000 (talk) 13:45, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
- FYI, it's never been known as Princeton College. I was just there a few weeks ago and read up on its history. The College of New Jersey name was later adopted, about a century later, by a nearby, unrelated institution formerly known as Trenton State University.

Invitation to join WikiProject Genealogy
I am extending this invitation to you because you are listed as a Wikipedian genealogist. WikiProject Genealogy seems to have ground to a halt, and I'm hoping to either "reboot" it or, if interest is lacking, eliminate it. If you are so inclined, please visit "This project's purpose" topic in WikiProject Genealogy Talk at your earliest convenience and respond to my comment. (You might have to scroll down a bit; my comment is mostly boldfaced.) If you are not willing or able to participate, please notify me of such in email, and I won't disturb you further about this matter. Thank you. -JohnAlbertRigali (talk) 08:41, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
Allied Chemical
Hi Paul -- what is your opinion on "deredirecting" Allied Chemical from Honeywell? Virtually none of the material from the Allied page exists on the Honeywell page; the redirect has become a deletion. My timing for asking? For many decades the NYC New Year's Ball was "dropped" from its tower on the Allied Chemical building. Thanks OldZeb (talk) 02:03, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

No content in Category:Lloyds TSB
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Lloyds TSB, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Lloyds TSB has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Lloyds TSB, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello PaulHanson! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 872 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
- Nabi Şensoy - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

File source problem with File:Herzberg-1899.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Herzberg-1899.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:18, 1 May 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:18, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

License tagging for File:ChrisbyRobie.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:ChrisbyRobie.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.
For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 20:05, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en
wikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too.

The article Gavel Consulting Group has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- non-notable company
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 08:34, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Manhattan Libertarian Party, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Libertarian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi. What's the origin of the term "Tax Anti-Injunction Act"? Is there a source you pulled this term from? I can't find any sources that reference this federal statute as the "Tax Anti-Injunction Act"; they all seem to reference the "Anti-Injunction Act." Related: Talk:Tax Anti-Injunction Act#Made-up article title?. Any light you could shed on this would be great. --MZMcBride (talk) 00:05, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
