Hovnanian Enterprises
K. Hovnanian Homes (Hovnanian Enterprises) does have operations in Kentucky. They don't offer communities there but they do offer their 'Built on your Lot' product line in Kentucky. Take a look at khov.com or khovboyl.com and it's right there on the map. Sorry if I'm doing this talk thing wrong, I'm new to wiki editing.
Err... Actually I'm wrong, it isn't on the map. Sorry!
Houston
I moved the city council table that you recently added to the Houston, Texas article to the Politics of Houston article which is linked from the main page. The current article is too large as it is. We're trying to put it on a diet in prep for FA. Thanks Postoak 23:50, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
Politics section
I removed this from the Houston article because it is unsourced. Some of the information is also repeated in the "Politics of Houston" subarticle, perhaps it should all be relocated there. Please understand that the Houston article is being reviewed for FA and they have already hit us hard for not having enough citations...see Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Houston, Texas. Thanks, Postoak 05:04, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Striking your vote
Hello Stantheman8609,
Thank you for your interest in the Wikimedia Board Election. The Election Committee regretfully informs you that your previous vote was received in error and will be struck according to the election rules, described below.
The Election Committee regretfully announces today that we will have to remove approximately 220 votes submitted. These votes were cast by people not entitled to vote. The election rules state that users must have at least 400 edits by June 1 to be eligible to vote.
The voter lists we sent to Software in the Public Interest (our third party election partner) initially were wrong, and one of your account was eventually included to our initial list. There was a bug in the edit counting program and the sent list contained every account with 201 or more edits, instead of 400 or more edits. So large numbers of people were qualified according to the software who shouldn't be. The bug has been fixed and an amended list was sent to SPI already.
Our first (and wrong) list contains 80,458 accounts as qualified. The proper number of qualified voters in the SPI list is now 52,750. As of the morning of July 4 (UTC), there are 2,773 unique voters and 220 people, including you, have voted who are not qualified based upon this identified error.
In accordance with voting regulations the Election Committee will strike those approximately 220 votes due to lack of voting eligibility. The list of struck votes is available at https://wikimedia.spi-inc.org/index.php/List_of_struck_votes.
We are aware of the possibility that some of the people affected may have other accounts with more than 400 edits, and hence may still be eligible to vote. We encourage you to consider voting again from another account, if you have one. If you have no other account eligible to vote, we hope you reach the criteria in the next Election, and expect to see your participation to the future Elections.
Your comments, questions or messages to the Committee would be appreciated, you can make them at m:Talk:Board elections/2007/en. Other language versions are available at m:Translation requests/Eleccom mail, 07-05.
Again, we would like to deeply apologize for any inconvenience.
Sincerely,
Kizu Naoko

Audioslave article
Hi there!
I am currently working on the improvement of the Audioslave article, now about halfway done, I'm opting to make it a featured article, but that is a lot of work. It isn't visible on the article yet, I haven't saved any changes, I want to save the whole thing once, when it's complete. I'm not from an English speaking country, I'm from Hungary, so I'm not really good in writing, expressing my thoughts in English, or not on that sophisticated level the feature article criteria requires, but I try to do my best. So the reason I'm writing to you is that if you'd like to help me in any way, e.g. finding sources, references, citations, any ideas on how to improve the article, maybe images, you're really welcome! Of course, if you like Audioslave as much as I do and would like to see it as a featured article. The best would be if you could help me with English, the grammar and stuff like that. So if you're interested I can send you the work I've done maybe in e-mail or some way, I don't think it would be good if I copied it to the talk page, it's pretty long and currently I'm just working on it in Microsoft Word. You can check it then and see if you have anything to add or help/correct. So anyways, if you're interested just say so.
Thank you very much in advance. Gocsa 17:37, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

I have nominated Texas's 22nd congressional district election, 2008, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Texas's 22nd congressional district election, 2008. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Disambiguation link notification for April 29
Hi. When you recently edited U.S. television network affiliate switches of 1994, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sunday Night Football (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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Heartland Media
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello. A tag has been placed on Heartland Media requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. noq (talk) 11:22, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Mvcg66b3r. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, KRIV (TV), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 00:08, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did at KTRK-TV, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 04:32, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
Mvcg66b3r, I'd be glad to find sources regarding sports programming for these stations and others, since there are loads of uncited references to notable sporting events involving local teams and/or events that aired locally, since there are already multiple references to various stations who aired Super Bowls involving local teams or having taken place in a particular market - for instance - that are not necessarily cited properly, and with the way TV listings play out these days in an era where newspaper listings have given way to near-invisible digital ones it can be impossible to truly know if a local station did in fact carry their local team's most notable game. I know this well from past experience being that I am from Houston and witnessed some of these sporting events take place, and shall also mention that KTRK did in fact carry this year's Houston Marathon (which would warrant a minor edit from "served" to "serves" in that context), and in fact preempted its usual slate of local and ABC Sunday morning programs to carry it.
I do not have a Newspapers.com or NewsBank account though, which makes the sourcing all that more difficult for me since that can take money and/or access to a public library. When I am able to obtain a source, I can cite that on here, but do keep in mind there of hundreds of similar entries on many station pages on here (not just sports-related, but also with regards to past programming as well), and it would be impossible to enforce such standards without massively purging much of the relevant content that has been observed by past viewers of these stations and others and which has been submitted in the past on here without much of an eagle eye effect...it is better to seek out such cited references to correct the issue and not lose track of that content than to surreptitiously wipe it all out and lose track of what was there that was otherwise observed. I wish pages were more like the very detailed one for WVPX-TV out of Akron, Ohio (which has dozens of references to Newspapers.com findings), and whoever did those edits should be commended for taking the effort to find sources and even upload clippings onto that page. In short, I would like to see every television station page on here reflect that level of detail from local programs to sports and syndication offerings to notable news figures, which especially for a station that is nothing more than a multicast network station over there in northeast Ohio these days is remarkable.
- @Stantheman8609: Why don't you talk to @Sammi Brie: or @Nathan Obral:. They helped with the WVPX-TV article and might just help you. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 05:19, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
I have an excellent link I came across as well that references the local sports teams' broadcast histories: https://archive.506sports.com/wiki/Main_Page. Those sources you mentioned would be of help as well and might even have a newspaper reference or two. Not sure what kind of sports broadcasting project exists here on Wikipedia since it's a rather niche element of the fifth estate.
