I would be very interested in helping out with any aspect of the project you would like me to. I am not overly familiar with the western part of the state, but I would be willing to work on Fargo articles or whatever. I have done almost all that I can think of doing with Grand Forks and UND, but I suppose there is always something else to do.

• --Poppyhaitian 15:36, Aug 29, 2005 (UTC)

I am pretty familiar with the western part of the state. So, I will let our differences slide and I will join you on your crusade to educate the world of the greatness of our state of North Dakota. No longer will we have to quietly by as the ignorant people ask us if Mount Rushmore is in North Dakota. No! We shall let them know of our true monuments like Salem Sue and the Jamestown buffalo!

• --AlexWCovington (talk) 23:06, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

I think I'll put my name here just so everyone's on the level. Just one or two more people and we should have enough to get going.

• --Weatherman90 22:56, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

I am from Bismarck myself, so I will focus on improving that article. I could also help with any other cities in eastern North Dakota if needed. I once had a person ask me if we have elecricity here...hopefully I can do something to educate those people! I will also take charge of pages for the past governors of ND. - update

• --Opes 23:06, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

I actually made ND along with God. God proposed the idea to me, and I was like, " Yeah, ok."

Tell me something you want done, and I will do it.

(Opes 23:06, 2 February 2006 (UTC))

UPDATE: I will work on History of North Dakota Granted I'm not a history major, but I do know quite a bit about the subject. (Opes 23:13, 2 February 2006 (UTC))

• --Trishymouse 12:53, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

I will volunteer, silly person that I am. I grew up in St. Vincent, MN but live in Fargo now. St. Vincent in right across the Red River from Pembina, ND. While everyone else seems interested in the larger and more famous aspects of North Dakota, I rather like the more obscure and rural, and dare I say it, historical...

• --misternuvistor 00:45, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

I'll definitely lend a hand, I'd be quite honored to assist. I could definitely add info regarding the music scene amongst the younger folk in the state (I noticed The AMP, regarding to such, is mentioned in the Music of North Dakota article), as well as other ND-related subjects, such as the State Capitol & the ND Heritage Center, and adding stub tags (if needed) to ND politician articles...

• ----Milk the cows (Talk) 23:58, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm from North Dakota, and my old username was Grejlen, so I'm not a newbie.

• --DavidA 01:26, 12 february 2006 (UTC)

Please forgive me for taking so long to get back to you. I certainly would be happy to help, though I'm really the newcomer here. My wife's a Minot native, so I'll see if I can get any leads from her too.

• --Mitchberg 18:26, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

I'd love to help; I live in the Twins, but am a Rugby native who grew up (through college) in Jamestown. My dad got the eastern half of the state in the divorce, and mom got the west. I can do some history, music (in the seventies and early eighties), media (I grew up in NoDak radio) and of course the greater Jamestown area.

• --Leopold Samsonite

I grew up on the western part of the state near Watford City, ND, so I can give as much information as I can.

• --Doubleplusungood 12:17, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

I look forward to assisting in any way I can with this project.

• --jolomo

My people are all from central NoDak and I have some historical references but only make it to the state once or twice a year (ie few photos)

• --JWGreen

I have lived in Grand Forks for most of my life, and my family is from the Cavilier/Bathgate/Neche area. I also work for the Summer Performing Arts Company in Grand Forks. I am looking forward to contributing!

• --Rickabbo

I've live in Grand Forks all my life, and I edit mostly Television station pages and media stuff. I'm a newbie, so bare with me.
