[edit] YTMND

Thanks for the 5 :) — Deckiller 22:32, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NYCS line colors

Thanks for your message. As soon as I saw your edit, I reverted any of my color changes, and am now using the standard colors. Marc Shepherd 21:51, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 42nd Street Shuttle

I know that you're trying to help with this whole 42nd Street Shuttle page-naming fiasco, and know that your help is appreciated. However, I'm not exactly sure what you just did here, but it's sort of messed up the edit histories on those pages. The article's real edit history is still here, and is now isolated. I have placed another move request, and someone should be along to fix it shortly. From now on, though, it really would be best if you refrained from whatever method you use to circumvent blocked moves and stick with move requests instead. Larry V (talk | contribs) 18:30, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I have discovered that this mess is now far more complex than previously thought, and not because of you. I've found the original shuttle article at S - Grand Central/Times Square Shuttle (New York City Subway service). Now another move request will have to be made, along with a history merge. If it's not too much to ask, please refrain from editing any article about the 42nd Street Shuttle until I'm sure that this mess has been resolved. I've already asked Marc Shepherd to do the same. Thanks for your cooperation; this Imdanumber1 character is really starting to get on my nerves. Oh, how I wish I were an admin now! --Larry V (talk | contribs) 18:44, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
I've decided to go to Cecropia with the situation, in the hopes that he, as a sysop, can fix this disgusting mess. --Larry V (talk | contribs) 19:08, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Excuse me for the mess. Maybe I should have talked about this on the discussion page on the article. I guess this is my fault. Many apologies. --imdanumber1 15:14, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cartoon Cartoons

Would it be wrong to remove any cartoons listed past 2003 in this article and the template as anything past 2003 is not officially called a Cartoon Cartoon, thereby returning credibility to the article? Ryulong 00:32, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Going to work on it then. Ryulong 00:34, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
And done. Ryulong 00:47, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My Gym Partner is a Monkey

Thanks for helping out with the problem in the Trivia section for this page. You might want to keep an eye on it, though. I deleted the same sections a few days ago and someone keeps putting them back. Thanks again for the assist! --EricaElBee 07:22, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removing fact template on YTMND

The reason why I restored Template:Fact on YTMND in the eBaum's section was because while there are indeed two sources there, they don't justify the entire paragraph. —this is messedr͏̈ocker (talk) 22:10, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NYCS Photos

I noticed that you had some NYCT photos on Flickr. Why not add them to station articles? Alphachimp talk 00:21, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

I thought that they were OK, but I'm not photographer. You know, that really doesnt say much for the ones I've been taking. My camera honestly gets worse results. I think I'm going to hold off until I get a better camera... Alphachimp talk 00:42, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the welcome

Kriston my fellow railfan and Subchatter, thanks for the welcome and some pointers in how I can edit better pages. It's difficult to read everything in Wilkipedia but I am still learning.

Keep up the good advice, it's much appreciated.

[edit] Cartoon Cartoons

Since you were involved in the discussion that removed all the non Cartoon Cartoons, maybe you can help me convince another user to stop readding them on Template:Cartoon Cartoons. I've already warred with him more than I should have. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 00:30, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] No copyright issue

I don't think we will run into any copyright issues with those icons. I used the tag that says, "This image is ineligible for copyright and therefore is in the public domain, because it consists entirely of information that is common property and contains no original authorship." Since this tag is used with the subway bullets that were probably taken from the MTA, I don't think we will have a problem using the icons here. --Imdanumber1 ( Talk | contribs) 14:33, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Side by side denotations continued

Using side by side symbols is actually a good idea. I added them and they don't look bad being clustered. I have already added them and they look fine. Thanks for your suggestion. If there is anything else you think the table should have, let me know. I would take deep thinking, and if it sound good, I will use it. I want to make sure that we have a table that everyone can agree on before we hold a consensus at WP:NYCS. Again, thanks. --Imdanumber1 ( Talk | contribs) 01:44, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] So, about my new table...

I would like to proceed with the discussion of the table now. I guess we are starting to get attention from Alphachimp, and if this continues, the table just might have a new home. If possible, contact me on my talk page to continue the discussion or at the WP:NYCS talk page. Thanks. --Imdanumber1 ( Talk | contribs) 19:28, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hudson Highlands image

I took that picture out of the article for a variety of reasons.

  • It was unclear what it meant to illustrate. You put it in the geography section ... the skyline image in the infobox is meant to convey a general sense of the city site as described there (I walked out onto the bridge one summer morning for it ... it better!). I don't see how a picture of the view from Newburgh tells me something about the geography of the city itself.
  • It is inaccurately captioned. Beacon Mountain, which takes up most of the background view, is for the most part not part of HH state park. The city of Beacon has its main reservoir between the summits and Scofield Ridge behind it, so it owns a lot of the land up there. Scenic Hudson and various private landowners have the rest.
  • It is compositionally flawed. I've been to that area many times, and it's rather easy to take a picture there of the view across the river that does not prominently feature the back of a street sign right in the middle of it.
  • It is technically flawed. It seems to be underexposed and whatever sharpening was used left the sky looking artificial.
  • Also, not that this would be fatal but there is a typo in the image name ("HIghlands" instead of "Highlands").

I hope not to deter you from contributing to articles about the Hudson Valley region, however. Daniel Case 05:49, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
