Re: MHE

Hi, it's common practice to tag a page for speedy deletion which is in an AfD discussion if it meets the criteria for speedy deletion, which I believe this one does. Is there a reason you don't think it should be speedily deleted? Redfarmer (talk) 15:43, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, I'll self-revert that. I thought that there wasn't supposed to be a speedy tag on an article while it was up for AfD; I guess I was wrong about that. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 15:44, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Grand Rapids Medical Corridor

Uhm, I am not sure what the issue was with the paragraph form but I though as wiki editors we were to avoid lists. In anycase as for the Mid Towne Development everything listed in the paragraphs was listed in the site at the time of writing. Right now they are changing a few things but they will not publish anything until this spring. I have some messages from the developer but uhm I would prefer to have info that is easy verifable. A lot of the reasoning for the citations at the end of the paragraph is to show that I used two or three sites to make that paragraph. In anycase let me know what should be helped. BTW thanks for the quick review of the article and getting some links taken care of. --Mihsfbstadium (talk) 00:11, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The content I converted to list form is currently in a form that's rather unclear and has a lot of sentence fragments. According to Wikipedia:Lists, lists can be included in an article in some cases, and since I'm unsure of what some of the parts of the phases mean, I didn't want to add on something that might be factually incorrect. So, I converted it to list form, which makes the sentence fragments and such less of an immediate issue.

I think the next thing to do with the article is to clean up and improve the RDV/Christman Medical Complex and Mid Towne Village sections. The other sections seem pretty good for now, but the first section is somewhat confusing in my opinion, and the second section could really use some links and stuff. I think we should aim to convert the information on the RDV/Christman development phases back into prose as opposed to a list, but it'll need to be clarified and made into complete sentences first.

In the longer term, I'd like to aim for Good Article status as our goal. The article is already a B-class article, so GA is the next step. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 01:36, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Okay I understand. First lets talk about RDV. That section I would like to get into a paragraph form. The first reference in the section appears to have the two phases laid out. So that should not be a difficult item to fix. As for the Mid Towne Village. I think the first paragraph should just be considered an overview look of the facility. I think some of the info in the Condo could be repeated in the intro paragraph. As for links should we be looking for links that talk about coding of the PUDs and the such are you looking for another citation. If you look at the citation I am using for the 2nd paragraph about the Womens center directly off the PDF that the group put out. So I am sure if there is anything else that would need to be covered. --Mihsfbstadium (talk) 01:49, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'll take a look at those citations. Your suggestion for the layout of the section seems to be a good idea. One thing that I think might need fixing at some point is that some parts of the article don't have very good context for people who don't live in Grand Rapids. I might be able to work on that at some point, but it would be great if you could help rephrase parts of the article with that in mind too.

I've been fairly busy this week, but I'll take another look at it when I get the chance. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 23:41, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That is so crazy!

P.S I love your page!!!

HI!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gossipgirl1 (talkcontribs) 20:59, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Nice to see another RuneScape fan here. I personally rarely play anymore, but if you want you can add my RS account. My main username on RuneScape is yaros_avatar. I'm glad you like my userpage; it's not as fancy as some, but it took some work to get it to look right.

One thing I'd like to point out is that admin status on Wikipedia isn't a major status symbol or a trophy. It's really just a few extra buttons and technical abilities, and from what I know of it (not being an admin myself), it seems to be more work and responsibility than the sort of thing you'd want as your main goal.

What really is a status symbol among Wikipedians is contributions to articles. Administrators are important, but I consider a non-admin who brings a few articles up to featured status much more critical to the project than an admin who makes few article edits. Adminship isn't a trophy, but articles brought up to featured status certainly are. Just something to keep in mind. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 04:05, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

See, i get what ur trying to say! My friend thinks that being an admin is just another bragging right! But i keep telling her that it is a privilege to be a admin, and not a way to show off. Could you plz e-mail her at [e-mail removed] to tell her, because she wont listen to me!!! Gossipgirl1 (talk) 19:38, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot to tell u that her Wikiusername is Thatshoturnot! She just edited her userpage today!! Gossipgirl1 (talk) 20:08, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the e-mail address as it is discouraged to give out personal information belonging to people other than yourself. I took a look at Special:Contributions/Thatshoturnot, and I found nothing indicating that sort of opinion. I don't think an e-mail is really necessary; you can just show her WP:ANOT yourself to correct any misconceptions she might have about adminship. Someone who believes that adminship is "just another bragging right" stands virtually no chance of becoming an administrator anyway, so it's not much of an issue.

Oh, by the way, if you respond to this, could you reply in this section rather than creating a new one? It's customary to keep discussions on the same topic in the same section. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 20:35, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Please oh please oh please help me with Thatshoturnot! She doesnt get it!!! You should she what she told me on her talk page! She doesnt believe a word i say about that!!!!!
