Manistique Lakes
Hi, I am new to Wikipedia and I am writing an article about the Manistique Lakes in Michigan. Would you mind please taking a look at my article. I would really appreciate your feedback. The link is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Clemcar29/sandbox. Thank you so much!Clemcar29 (talk) 00:41, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
- It appears you've moved your article to Manistique Lakes now, so you can just give that link to anyone you ask for help. I know relatively little about the Upper Michigan area–and even less about lakes haha–so I probably wouldn't be the best person to ask. It is possible that someone at Wikipedia:WikiProject Michigan may know more about the subject and could be of more help. That said, there are several issues with your article. For one, it appears as if you've copied and pasted from websites across the internet directly into the article. That is a big no-no on Wikipedia because it violates copyright laws. It looks as if it should still be in userspace (i.e. you should probably move it back to your sandbox), but maybe the guys at WP:MICHIGAN can help you more. Sorry!--Dudemanfellabra (talk) 00:58, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
NPS Focus California
The NPS Focus status page mentions that they have California now! Although the search function is borked as usual, by entering the NRHP number into the pdfhost url I was able to get nomination documents, so it appears that California is finally available, as is Colorado.

- Ah, thanks for the heads up. I've now updated the list at WP:NRHPHELP#Online as well as the accompanying image. It appears that Washington has been added recently as well. I guess they don't send out any news releases or anything, so I guess we should just check back on that page every now and then. Thanks again!--Dudemanfellabra (talk) 02:14, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
Help needed
Please, Dude. :) Can you fix the Template:Infobox historic site? For example, Pobednik. Designation is wrong, instead of Serbian Cultural Property of Great Importance should be Cultural Heritage of Serbia. And color should be blue, and not red. Please, change that in template, i dont know how... :( Thank you in advance! --WhiteWriterspeaks 12:52, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

- And just one more thing, before love! :) this edit points the problem! :) --WhiteWriterspeaks 13:57, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

historic site colors templates
Hi Dudemanfellabra -- Could you please consider commenting at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject National Register of Historic Places#Standard colors. An edit of August 11 changing a bunch of colors has been noticed, and it causes some problems, mainly that it obliterates distinctions between NHLD, NHL, NHR, and another U.S. designation that were intended to be made. I've now asked editor Kaldari to comment. The same edit changed colors for many other countries' colors, too. --doncram 20:48, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
Hallo, while stub-sorting this I tried to upgrade it a little, found reference to it being a Mississippi Landmark, found it listed at List of Mississippi Landmarks ... but then I can't find it listed in any source document, or by searching in the database. Can you shed any light on it? - you seem to be the main editor of the WP page on the listing. Thanks. PamD 13:45, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
- It appears that Columbia High School has been removed from the list of Mississippi Landmarks for some reason, though I cannot find a source explicitly stating this. It is possible that this is just a clerical error, though; contacting MDAH directly should clear up the issue.
- The reason I think it has been removed lies in the fact that [www.jacksonms.gov/assets/planning/MSLandmarks.pdf this pdf from the city of Jackson's official website]--an older version of the pdf linked in the references of List of Mississippi Landmarks--claims 688 total landmarks (last page of the pdf) while the current pdf on the MDAH website claims 916 total. Columbia High School is on the former pdf but not on the latter. When I created the list, it appears I was using the older pdf as a main source, and later MDAH replaced it with the newer pdf, then eventually by the database you point to. In other words, the list article is at best out of date and at worst inaccurate.--Dudemanfellabra (talk) 18:17, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
