The discussions from July 2006 through June 2007 were archived at the request of others who were having trouble finding their way through all those messages. Feel free to look there if you want to see items like my being cautioned not to taunt Happy Fun Ball, which was a message I hated to remove from the page (!), or messages in Spanish about my contributions to Spanish Wikipedia.

Lovers Lane, Dallas, Texas
[edit]Articles like Midway Road, Dallas, Texas and Knox Street, Dallas, Texas used to exist.. but they were all deleted as non-notable. If you click on either of those links, you'll see the deletion log. I wouldn't suggest creating an article on a specific road unless it's really notable.. like Preston Road (which already exists).. though it should have a separate article since SH 289 and Preston Road are not co-extensive (which is explained in the lead of Texas State Highway 289). -- drumguy8800 C T 22:25, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
- If you check out Amazon Dallas streets there are several publications that include informaiton on streets in Dallas. If you developed an article on the
history of notable streets in Dallas Texas by using material from books, I think people would be hard pressed to delete such an article. -- Jreferee (Talk) 04:42, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Mayer
[edit]You're very welcome. I agree that Mayer was overdue for an article. Obviously, much more biographical detail can be added to Mayer's article - It's hardly more than a list of credits right now, so please do read some of his interviews that are online and see if you can improve it. Also, I did not spend the time necessary to find out much about his off-broadway work. I bet more could be said about how he started out directing, why he chose the projects that he chose, etc. Thanks, but I'll pass on the database. Best regards, -- Ssilvers 15:36, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
Regarding edits to Ellen Conford
[edit]Thanks for your edits. :) Have you any interest in adding articles for the red links? If you do, I offer my help (to do some of the books). Yodaat 00:33, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Ironically (or not so) I searched and added some external links to the talk page for the eventual first editor's aid while you redlinked his name. If you're interested: Talk:George Mantello. Yodaat 12:33, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Thanks!
[edit]Sorry about the delayed response, but I'll definitely try to look into that! Klpstyles 16:51, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Roque Dalton
[edit]Hola, wikitejana. Desde hace algunos días, un usuario trata de añadir al artículo Roque Dalton en español, la información que el padre de Roque, Winall Dalton fue miembro de la Dalton Gang. Esa información ya aparece en el artículo en:Roque Dalton, pero sin ninguna referencia. Te pediría que vigiles el artículo en inglés. Disculpa por escribir en español. Saludos.

South Dallas
[edit]Hi, Lawikitejana, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
Thanks for your August 6 note on my talk page. I wonder if you got an e-mail I sent you a few weeks ago, in response to your earlier post on my page acknowledging my inclusion of Stanley Marcus in your "Graduates of Dallas ISD" category--based on the content of your more recent post it seems that perhaps you didn't. I sent it via the "E-mail this user" link on your talk page, so if it didn't reach you, I won't be using that feature in the future! Anyway, I wanted to be sure you didn't think I was ignoring you!
Since you read my LOOOOOONG bio, you already know I'm a fellow DISD grad. My mother and both brothers are as well, and both of my parents taught for many years in the district (my dad, being a music teacher, got shuttled around so often in his teaching assignments he must have taught at close to a dozen Dallas schools). Also, my mother grew up in South Dallas (Peabody Ave.--attended John Henry Brown School and Forest Ave. HS), and my dad lived in the same neighborhood from 1940 until the late '50s. My dad is now deceased, but my mom lives with my wife and me now. So--I have a wealth of South Dallas historical info at my fingertips, as it were. Unfortunately, there's that "original research" issue, so I can't just transcribe her reminiscences into an article!!
You mentioned your DMN access via your library card. Well, strangely enough, I also have the same access via my San Antonio Public Library card! I've been referring a great deal to articles from the old DMN archives in my wiki editing. I've also been reading a lot of Dallas history books lately. I don't know if you're familiar with some of these, but if not I'll bet you'd enjoy some of them. . . . Rose-Mary Rumbley (who ought to have her own wiki article, I think--hmmmm.....) wrote The Unauthorized History of Dallas, Texas and Dallas Too; A Light in the Prairie by Gerry Cristol, which is a history of Temple Emanu-El, has a lot about the old neighborhoods; there's They Came to Stay by Rose Biderman; Merchant Princes by Leon Harris (of the Sanger-Harris Harrises); and In Jewish Texas: A Family Memoir by Stanley E. Ely (whose brother my mom dated at one time!). (I also just bought a copy of The Lusty Texans of Dallas but haven't gotten around to reading it yet.) . . . SO--there's a lot of information out there, in published form, and if I can find the time, over time I may be able to contribute some worthwhile stuff to South Dallas.
Oh, and just for the record: when I put that "personal knowledge" remark on the Skyline talk page, I was very much a newbie--that was about 1600 edits ago, and some six days after I first registered. I would never openly admit to such a thing now! (wink) Also for the record: Kyle Gann (whose article you've done some nice editing on) was one of my closest friends in high school. For what it's worth, I think he made some excellent points when he bowed out as a wiki editor. The OR rules are great in principle, but I do think the enforcers can sometimes go a bit overboard in their enthusiasm. (Let's just say phrases like "tail wagging the dog" and "throwing out the baby with the bath water" became clichés for a reason.)
Now I'm taking up your whole talk page. Anyway, thanks, and kudos for all your fine work on Wikipedia. Emoll 15:48, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
David Leeson
[edit]Hi Lawikitejana. You are off to such a great start on the article David Leeson that it may qualify to appear on Wikipedia's Main Page under the Did you know... section. The Main Page gets about 4,000,000 hits per day and appearing on the Main Page may help bring publicity and assistance to the article. However, there is a five day from article creation window for Did you know... nominations. Before five days pass from the date the article was created and if you haven't already done so, please consider nominating the article to appear on the Main Page by posting a nomination at Did you know suggestions. If you do nominate the article for DYK, please cross out the article name on the "Good" articles proposed by bot list. Also, don't forget to keep checking back at Did you know suggestions for comments regarding your nomination. Again, great job on the article. -- JayHenry 05:11, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit]--Circeus 23:26, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the message about images for this article (nice work BTW). Read all the guidance at Wikipedia:Non-free content. If you think use of the photo's qualifies as fair use then download them and adjust the resolution by resizing in Photoshop or whatever graphics editing program you use. The question of what is "low resolution" is always up for debate, but I seem to recall reading some recent guidelines suggesting that the longest side of an image should not exceed 350px, but I can't find it right now.
Fair use guidelines have tightened up a lot in the last year and some of my images are in excess of this, so I'll work my way through them to adjust. I'd suggest sticking to the 350px guideline.
Once you have resized the image, upload it adding the appropriate tags, most likely {{Non-free historic image}} and {{Non-free fair use in}}. Make sure it provides details of the source, the author or copyright holder, and that it has a valid fair use rationale. You can either write one yourself or use the template {{Non-free use rationale}}, filling in the parameters to suit. Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline gives useful guidance on this.
I hope that helps, but let me know if you need further input. Cheers. --Cactus.man ✍ 07:05, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
Can you please assist in improving this article? I noticed that you have expressed interest before on the talk page in 2006. However, I have tried to make some improvements, but a member from the sorority has previously tried to own it due to conflict of interests see talk page. She retired due to several "misunderstandings" see the this has re-emerged as User:HistoricDeltaSigmaTheta. The trouble is, I (at least) don't have access to Shaped to Its Purpose, and am not a member of this organization. I tried to do what I could to it, various improvements, added refs, pics from commons, additional research. I will be watching this page, so you don't have to respond here. Cheers. Miranda 05:05, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, I'm not a member, either. As I recall, I ended up editing that article a little bit after editing a biographical article on some well-known member. So unfortunately, I'm not in a position to do any better than you. I wish I were, as there are a couple of articles on which I've had similar problems with other editors (am going to go check out the "WP:OWN" link from your message) and would gladly have had some help. Best wishes to you. Lawikitejana 05:54, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, I am working on Alpha Kappa Alpha, and some of the Delta Sigma Theta founders were part of Alpha Kappa Alpha (hence the cession from the sorority). I have to make pages for 7 of the 22 founders, but so little information is available. I have done so much research for the article, found pictures which I uploaded to commons, and have made the article as neutral as possible (it failed GA, because of lack of sources, red links, etc.) to make this ultimately a FA before Jan 15th (the sorority's 100th anniversary). Thanks so much for responding. Miranda 08:49, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
Wikimania in Atlanta!
[edit]Hi! I noticed your involvement on U.S. South-related articles, categories and WikiProjects, and I wanted to let you know about a bid we're formulating to get next year's Wikimania held in Atlanta! If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs. If you would like to contribute more, please write on my talk page, the talk page of the bid, or join us at the #wikimania-atlanta IRC chat on freenode.org. Have a great day!
P.S. While this is a template for maximum efficiency, I would appreciate a note on my talk page so I know you got the message, and what you think. This is time-sensitive, so your urgent cooperation is appreciated. :) Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 22:39, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
El Salvador change
[edit]Hi - Just thought I'd say hello. You left a message on my non-logged-in user page regarding my edit to the El Salvador page. Thanks for the thumbs up on the change, and yes, I just hadn't bothered to log on when I made the edit. Arthur Holland 09:15, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
No problem
[edit]Red River is sort of like a retreat for Texans / New Mexicans / Oklahomans, and having gone there so much this year I thought, "how can share this with Wikipedia..." Mr. Peppermint was a total surprise, though. I'd always seen him before, but this is the first time I learned about him. Hopefully he attends next year. Zeality 23:54, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:William's Doll-HCpic-9780064430678.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:William's Doll-HCpic-9780064430678.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 19:51, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Retarded Policeman, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because it is an article about a certain website, blog, forum, or other web content that does not assert the importance or significance of that web location. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles, as well as notability guidelines for websites. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}}
to the page, and put a note on Talk:Retarded Policeman. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Thanks. Caknuck (talk) 17:15, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
Wil Wheaton's family
[edit]With regards to this edit, I removed the parental and children variables from the infobox on the guidance from the infobox itself; from {{infobox actor}}: "Insert the names of the actor's notable children [or parents], meaning those children [or parents] who meet Wikipedia's notability criteria independently of this actor." — pd_THOR | =/\= | 04:41, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
- Makes sense. I wonder if adding one of those hidden comments (the ones with the arrows and hyphens) into the infobox template would help; i.e., the comment could advise that those sections are to be filled in only when the family members are notable in their own right. At any rate, thanks for the explanation. Lawikitejana (talk) 13:26, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Way to go -- I suspect the person interffering may have been the subject of the article. DavidOaks (talk) 01:24, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, I'd doubt it ... while it's not unheard of, you'd be amazed how dedicated some fans are about pulling anything from a page they think besmirches their star's reputation (such as any mention of the fact that a specific celebrity's orientation is widely discussed — granted, it's an area in which one has to stay away from rumor, gossip sites, and irrelevancy, but for many stars, the discussion is so commonplace that totally omitting it from Wikipedia comes off as ludicrous). Davis herself comes off in virtually all public mentions of her response as not wanting people to exaggerate, but as not at all ashamed of participation in the charity event or of having flipped up her skirt, etc.; her publicist specifically mentions in at least one story the amount of money that was raised. Thanks for the support all the same! Lawikitejana (talk) 01:49, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
Raggedy Ann article
[edit]Hi! I see you reverted the article again. I reverted because you removed the tag. Changing the name of the section does not alter the fact that it is a trivia section. The banner you see for a trivia section "Trivia sections are discouraged ......" is there to inform editors that the article requires more work and the trivia section should be incorporated into the the main body of the article. In this case, I think the first two points in the section could definately be put in elsewhere. BTW, "... in popular culture" is a old trick, which, these days, no editors are blind to.
I placed a link in the edit summary to the MoS for section headings but, in this case, I don't really think it is worth changing the section heading again. I can't imagine any links pointing to it!
All the best and happy editing TINYMARK 09:23, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

RE: Stanley Marcus
[edit]Good. I'm glad to hear that you'll be making changes, as it is really frustrating to spend half an hour (sometimes more!) reading through an article...just to get no response. The only way that I know of to see how long an article is to click the HISTORY tab at the top of the article. That shows the article size after every revision. Your article is currently at 31,142 bytes. Nikki311 00:04, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
- I don't know if the lead is the best place for a quote at all. I'd put the quote in a new section and just mention the award in the lead. I'll go through some GAs and FAs tomorrow and find a good example of a lead for a biography. Nikki311 02:54, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
- Don't worry about it...take your time. I won't fail the article, because I know you are trying. I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to find some lead examples yet. I've had some other projects to finish up first and haven't had the time. I will get to it, though! Nikki311 21:22, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Okay. I had never seen an FA with a quote, but now that I have...I'm convinced it's okay for you to keep it in. Thanks for providing those examples, as that will help with my reviewing in the future. I've finally gotten around to looking for some lead examples. Here's what I've got:
- John Michael Wright: Does a good job of both describing his career, as well as why he is notable
- Harold Innis
- George Washington (inventor): includes some of his early life in the lead
- Kylie Minogue
- After looking through a bunch of those, I think the lead should be formatted like this: a paragraph explaining who he is, a paragraph summarizing his life and career, and a paragraph summarizing why he is so great. What do you think? Nikki311 22:36, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- Okay. I had never seen an FA with a quote, but now that I have...I'm convinced it's okay for you to keep it in. Thanks for providing those examples, as that will help with my reviewing in the future. I've finally gotten around to looking for some lead examples. Here's what I've got:
I can help write it, I don't mind. I have some other things to get to first, but then I'll write on up for you. If you like it, cool. If not, then it might give you a starting place that you can just add or remove stuff from. Nikki311 01:09, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
I have no idea. Maybe it just needs a few days to update or something? Nikki311 20:43, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
Stanley Marcus
[edit]Hola, Lawikitejana. As part of the WP:GAU survey, I asked if you wanted feedback on your writing. I couldn't tell from your answer whether you did or not...did you? (Feel free to reply here.) - Dan Dank55 (talk)(mistakes) 00:38, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- Sure, why not? The only reason I answered the way I did was that the survey so far preceded any feedback, yet it seemed to ask my opinion of the feedback I received. :) Lawikitejana (talk) 02:13, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, I can get to that this week. I was challenged on my interpretation of the results of the WP:GAU survey, I just wanted to make sure. That's definitely the right answer :) There are a few people who like to go around saying that people put up with the style guidelines and with article reviewers because they have to, but that everyone knows they're full of it, but I'm seeing no evidence of massive disaffection. That was one result of the survey. - Dan Dank55 (talk)(mistakes) 02:38, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
Music in Adventist Churches
[edit]Hello, you had asked about a capella music and the lack of instrumental accompaniment in Seventh-day Adventist churches. I didn't see anyone had replied so I thought I'd give it a shot. Adventists have no qualms about using instruments in their worship and find no Biblical reason to avoid them (perhaps just the opposite in fact - example 2 Samuel 6:5). You'd be hard pressed to find a church in North America that didn't have one or more of piano/organ/keyboard.
So what you describe or heard would be considered unusual for Adventists. There are differences in style between churches however. I know Adventist churches in the metroplex that would be uncomfortable with live drums being used, yet others have a permanent set of drums in their sanctuary. But with the dozens of Adventist churches in the metropex, one can choose the style that fits their needs. Regards Sdenny123 (talk) 12:54, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit]Sure and it's my pleasure - I'm just quick on the draw.
The best thing, I find, about stubs, is just to take a shot in the dark and see what results. Like "physicist-stub"; I figured there might just be enough American physicists to warrant their own stub. Keep hitting the preview button until you find the one that works. For instance: no "US-physicist-stub"? Try "physicist-stub", then "US-scientist-stub", etc. That usually works. --User:AlbertHerring Io son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla! 18:40, 21 March 2009 (UTC)
John Cotton notability
[edit]This is about this edit to W. T. White High School. While notability of an individual can be established on another page (like the high school page), it's usually much easier to establish it on a page for the individual- for instance, on John G. Cotton. That way CSDs and AFDs can be filed, talk pages can be used, and all of that. Do you mind creating a page for him, since (I assume) you are fairly familiar with him? tedder (talk) 17:22, 11 April 2009 (UTC) ERROR: Please enter the username parameter when using the {{Talkback}}

Added template for SuggestBot
[edit]Hi,
Thanks for being one of SuggestBot's users! I hope you have found the bot's suggestions useful.
We are in the process of switching from our previous list-based signup process to using templates and userboxes, and I have therefore added the appropriate template to your user talk page. You should receive the first set of suggestions within a day, and since we'll be automating SuggestBot you will from then on continue to receive them regularly at the desired frequency.
We now also have a userbox that you can use to let others know you're using SuggestBot, and if you don't want to clutter your user talk page the bot can post to a sub-page in your userspace. More information about the userbox and usage of the template is available on User:SuggestBot/Getting Recommendations Regularly.
If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me on my user talk page. Thanks again, Nettrom (talk) 20:01, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Survey
[edit]{{adminhelp}} I did the 2011 editor survey, but had a few other suggestions / comments / feedback that didn't fit into the questions. I had hoped there would be an option at the end for other comments (though I can imagine many, many reasons why one might not be provided!). After looking around my various options, I'm not sure where I could provide this feedback, and would like someone to answer that question. Ideally, I'd like to know of options for sending it directly/privately, but it's not so personal that I'd totally rule out putting some of it into an online discussion if only I knew where that discussion is taking place. Thanks! Lawikitejana (talk) 13:56, 23 April 2011 (UTC) P.S. The reason why I requested an administrator rather than just an editor was simply that I figured admins are more likely to have an answer on this one; I've been an active editor for five years or so, and I don't have an answer. :)
- Please could you ask this question in http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Editor_survey_feedback
- Thanks, Chzz ► 19:50, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
- Anyone (non-admin, anyone) can create an account on that wiki, and if your account is unified you should be able to log in immediately with your enwiki user-id and password. Chzz ► 20:22, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Another SuggestBot message, still heavy with West Wing and Monk deleted (1May2013) to shorten my talk page from SuggestBot (talk) 20:26, 28 April 2011 (UTC)
The article El Salvador (Peter, Paul and Mary) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- the article dosn't show notability of the song.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Oddbodz (talk) 19:38, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

I've currently nominated the page for peer review, and if you have the time to check it over I'd appreciate your contribution - in particular I'm looking to see what quality ranking people think it deserves, as I definitely think the changes I have made mean it should no longer be considered 'Start Class.'
