Tinley Park Metra Stations

Unfortunatley, I don't have any info on either the 80th Avenue Station, or the other Tinley Park station other than what I've read on the web. But if you can get a photo of the main Tinley Park station, I suggest you post it here. ----DanTD (talk) 17:50, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Other Metra Stations

You apparently know the Chicago Metropolitan Area better than I do, so maybe you can answer a question for me; Is the Burr Oak Metra Electric station in Blue Island, or Calumet Park? ----DanTD (talk) 17:53, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Metra's website just gives the street address and the branch it was on. It doesn't say which town it's in, and the Yahoo Map they provide doesn't give that much of a distinction. But if you say it's in Blue Island, I'll take your word for it. ----DanTD (talk) 20:49, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Wolf Road and Illinois Route 64

Somebody should mention that to Metra, because that was where I got that info. ----DanTD (talk) 21:36, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WP:CHICAGO survey

WP:CHICAGO

Thanks for registering at Wikipedia:WikiProject Chicago/members. You may want to get involved in the Wikipedia:Meetup/Chicago 3. Also, be advised that the project is now trying to keep all the project's WP:PR, WP:FAC, WP:FAR, WP:GAR, WP:GAC WP:FLC, WP:FLRC, WP:FTC, WP:FPOC, WP:FPC, and WP:AFD discussion pages in one location at the new Wikipedia:WikiProject Chicago/Review page.

WP:CHICAGO leadership

This month you have indicated new or continuing interest in WP:CHICAGO as either an active or semi-active member. The response to the project membership survey was strong enough that we should attempt to organize it in a more fully functional way. Please sign up at Wikipedia:CHICAGO/leadership if you would be willing to serve as a leader of the project from September 1, 2008 to February 28, 2009. The various leadership responsibilities are listed there. The roles will be somewhat similar to the roles of Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators. We are a less mature and developed project than WP:MILHIST however, so our division of roles will be slightly different. Please respond by the 23rd.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 18:57, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Top-importance Chicago articles

For the rest of this month we are looking for more candidates to be promoted to Category:Top-importance Chicago articles. We are hoping to bring the list of category members to a total of 50. Either you have participated in past votes and discussions or you have recently signed up to be a part of WP:CHICAGO. In either case, please come visit Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Chicago/Assessment where we are determining who to add to the September 1st ballot. Some candidate debates have lingered, but there are many new ones from the project's top 50 according to the Wikipedia:Release Version 0.7. Help us determine which pages to add to the ballot.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 04:13, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Survey about How Historical Knowledge is Produced on Wikipedia

Hi StarsTrainsAndRandomThings,

I am Petros Apostolopoulos, a Ph.D. candidate in Public History at North Carolina State University. My Ph.D. project examines how historical knowledge is produced on Wikipedia. If you are interested in participating in my research study by offering your own experience of writing about history on Wikipedia, you can click on this link https://ncsu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9z4wmR1cIp0qBH8. There are minimal risks involved in this research.

If you have any questions, please let me know. Petros Apostolopoulos, paposto@ncsu.edu Apolo1991 (talk) 16:47, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
