Please start new topics at the bottom of the page, even if it is related to a section above. Otherwise it is difficult to find the posting.

Notice: starting in 2007 I will reply to your posts on this page to keep threading unless requested or unless it is extremely urgent.


Sorry if I don't respond to your posts right away... I can never accurately predict when I'll be gone for a few days... and with vacations and school it gets hectic.


Collateral damage

Just to tell you, there was a bit of unintentional collateral damage from your recent block of User:512theking. It would be awesome if you could take care of it. Thanks! GracenotesT § 05:21, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for unblocking me, i'm really sorry that my brother vandalizd your pages he told me after he came home from juvy. I'm sorry, i'm the one to blame for this becuase I should have taken care of him a long time ago. I told him if he ever edits any wikipedia article ever again, i'll tell my parents that time he skipped school 7 times, he'll be for grounded like 5 months. -- JohnnyAlbert10 Time to talk · My Help 12:25, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Specifically, this edit was conducted: [1] Per latest consensus at the U.S. Roads WikiProject, all of these socks have been blocked indef. on sight. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 20:20, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If i see him on wikipedia with another account. I'll tell you ahead of time, OK? -- JohnnyAlbert10 Time to talk · My Help 15:23, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Anything even remotely similar to 512theking will get blocked. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 20:28, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Possibly if he uses 512theking in the name? --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 20:47, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I tried my skipping school threat, and he don't care. But how will you know if that's him, he could be using a new name. I'll just look in his computer's history then notifying you.

Hey, could you take a good look at Pennsylvania Route 65 and tell me what else the article needs to improve. I could use some help as well. -- JohnnyAlbert10 Time to talk · My Help 15:32, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

More formal tone could be used. Beyond that, I am not sure (I am not from the East Coast and do not know much about PA highways). --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 20:47, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ohh yeah you're from California, my bad. But i'll work on this route, thank you. -- JohnnyAlbert10 Time to talk · My Help 15:51, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey's Back

Hey Rschen, my brother vandalied my talk page two times good thing a had a copy of it on Microsoft Word. Lookout, he's User:Phillies 5000. -- JohnnyAlbert10 Time to talk · My Help 14:51, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

About my rating for the WP:CAL

Hello, I am a member of the WP:CAL. The routes you have rated are on my Watchlist. I have contributed to them and have rated for our project. I would like to rate higher than B, Low but have guidance on this from a respected proect member on ratings. On articles of great importance to our project, I have rated up to B, Mid. This one should be that but not when stacked up against some of our other projects. Hope this helps. BTW, I added to U.S. Route 40 a source that gives great descriptions on our state routes/interstates Interstate 40. If you look at the top of the page, there is a box to type in a route number ala 68 which talks about our California State Route 68. Lots of great info. Ronbo76 03:42, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:USRD/A rating is separate from any WP:CAL rating. If this does not answer your question, please clarify. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 03:44, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To do so, please add an asterisk (*) after your name on Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Roads/Newsletter/List.

Request Block

In regards to IP user 209.244.30.249, on 19 January 2007 you said

with any further violations, the aforementioned accounts and any socks will be blocked indefinitely on sight. Let this serve as a final warning to the person behind all of these accounts.

IP 209.244.30.249 has been used to repeatedly vandalize the Michael Corcoran article.

I beleive these IP's/accounts to be sock puppets of the same individual:

69.139.11.105
69.248.239.218
130.91.93.33
Watchmike

I ask you to follow through and block this IP and the related sock puppets indefinitely. Thanks Windyjarhead 04:03, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This needs to be taken to WP:AN subpage, this appears to be a different vandal than the one that was blocked above. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 04:39, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Hey Rschen, can you please block King of fools23 because he blanked Pennsylvania Route 145 about 3 or 4 times. Thanks. -- JohnnyAlbert10 Time to talk · My Help 16:00, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request for bot approval

Hi. I don't know what bot something with your request for bot approval went wrong. You linked to a request that doesn't exist. Maybe a typo? — Ocolon 06:42, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I linked to Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Rschen7754. How embarassing. :) --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 21:53, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent bot approvals request has been Approved for Task Trial. Please see the request page for details. — xaosflux Talk 04:36, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your usertalk page

I've unprotected your usertalk page, as it has been protected against "trolling" for ~2 months. Having your talk page accesible is important when you are running new bot trials. If you have more trolling issues please let me know. — xaosflux Talk 04:36, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've just got a notification from you saying I've been inactive from the US. State Roads related WikiProjects. This is a large error, as I'm thinking about modifying some project guidelines to blend in with the MOS. --wL<speak·check> 21:18, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'll get right on this to improve the project. I've been editing so many other articles lately I've put it on the backburner, but the pages really do need attention. I'll also update WP:KYSH with the new infobox road template as well. Thanks for bringing it to my attention via the newsletter! Seicer (talk) (contribs) 01:32, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NJSCR Newsletter #3

The New Jersey State and County Route Newsletter
Issue 3 – March 2007

Issue #3

The third issue of the WP:NJSCR newsletter celebrates the completion of infoboxes for all current state routes. Congratulations team!

Project News
  • All current state routes now have an infobox. Route 183 was selected to represent the project in the header as the last article to receive one.
  • Now that we have that done, what's left? Plenty! A to-do list has been posted on the project page, with a more detailed version at WT:NJSCR#To-do list. The simple version:
    • Ensure that all freeway exit lists are up to exit list guide standards.
    • Make sure all infoboxes have the new maint= parameter.
    • Make sure the straight line diagram is properly referenced in the infobox.
    • Add a major intersections table to each article.
Member of the Month
  • The member of the month is Alansohn, who had the fantastic idea for a "final run-through" and the to-do list.

Minnesota Highway Shields

I got this notice when I started applying the current shields. I might need someone to back me up on this.

I noticed you've been replacing the historic shields with the modern blue ones. This can't happen. It's misleading to put the modern shield on an article when the highway was decommissioned long before that style was used. In that case I see it as better to have no shield at all than an incorrect one, but I still don't see what the problem with mine is. --Sable232 14:10, 28 March 2007 (UTC) (on my talk page)[reply]

An Automated Message from HagermanBot

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! HagermanBot 04:41, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How about no, old junction lists dont get signed. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 04:45, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your input would be appreciated at Talk:Interstate 238. A debate has developed about 238's status as a child or non-child of I-80. User:Chriscf is claiming it is a child of 80 while I'm claiming it is not as we've been treating it from day one. I've found no evidence for his position but at least 3 different instances of support for mine from fairly reliable sources one of which is linked to from the Caltrans page.

Also yes I'm still active, as evidence by me engaging in the I 238 debate. I just didn't want to get the newsletter. I usually come read where it's located directly. Gateman1997 21:33, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
