[edit] LIRR dates

Yes, Americasroof, I am quite sure of the LIRR dates. The State acquired the capital stock in 1966 and handed over operation to the newly formed MCTA in 1968. By the time of the disastrous Penn Central merger, the LIRR was already gone from the PRR balance sheet. -- Cecropia 06:01, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I thought you were probably right but the article wasn't clear. Thanks again (and for the help on talk!!! Americasroof 11:11, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Truman

Keep up the good work on Harry S. Truman National Historic Site! Nationalparks 03:22, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vietnam Veterans Memorial

Thank you for your contributions, but I have have a couple of comments.

You have turned the history section from prose into a bullet-point list. It is generally considered better style for an encyclopedia article to be in prose, rather than a list of bullet points. Please would you think about turning it back into prose (adding in your additions, of course).

You may also have noticed the "preview" button, which you can use to check an edit before you save it. Although you can edit an article half a dozen times in a row, doing so it makes it more difficult to follow the edit history. -- ALoan (Talk) 16:09, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your repsonse. I agree that a timeline can be helpful (there is a nifty graphical way to produce them - see John Vanbrugh, Isambard Kingdom Brunel and List of popes (graphical) for examples) but I think the timeline should accompany the prose, not replace it.
I was just pointing it out the "preview" function in case you hadn't noticed it. I often edit the same article more than once, but I try not to do it half a dozen times, where I can help it (but don't look at the edit history for Test cricket hat-tricks or List of Test cricket triple centuries!). -- ALoan (Talk) 14:39, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Catskills as a Robert Moses project?

I don't think that category makes sense. While Moses acquired some of the better land in the Catskill Park (and I really should appropriately rename that article and Adirondack State Park since both are officially just known as parks and they aren't state parks in the same way that all of the other state parks are), it was created before he was born.

BTW, are you the same guy whose name I know from other hiking-related fora who runs the americasroof.com site? Daniel Case 16:28, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Robert Moses and New York State Parks

I can find no evidence supporting your addition of Category:Robert Moses Projects to Harriman State Park and Bear Mountain State Park, and I suspect several other parks outside of the NYC area. Would you care to cite a source? Thanks, -- Mwanner | Talk 13:56, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

You wrote: "Robert Moses was originally the New York STATE Parks Commissioner...". Harriman and Bear Mountain were built under the Palisades Interstate Park Commission in the 1910s. But "...the state park system was consolidated under Robert Moses in 1924..." [1]. I am going to remove the Moses category from those two parks, and I urge you to check the accuracy of assigning the other upstate parks to his agency. -- Mwanner | Talk 15:51, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Since the image in the source page http://www.mta.nyc.ny.us/lirr/html/lirrmap.htm is not part of a press kit or a promotional page, it seems that it is not available under the license You are using. I'd suggest removing the image and drawing it Yourself. Currently the image is not proper. To remove it place {{db-author}} in the images page. Questions? NB put ~~~~ to the end of Your talk to sign it, best feydey 16:27, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags has all the tags available for image uploading, and US Federal government images are the only ones in Public Domain. Remember to put {{db-author}} in the images page. Cheers feydey 16:43, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

I don't see how this effort is an effort to privatize the material. Rather it is an attempt to spread knowledge in keeping with the general goals of the Wikimedia Foundation.

[edit] License tagging for Image:Danforth-book.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Danforth-book.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

If you have time, you may want to create a separate article such as Ohio in the Civil War or Pennsylvania in the Civil War covering Missouri.

[edit] Truman Annex

Thanks for the thanks!  :)

I've been working on the list of National Register places in Florida, and got to Monroe County. Don't know the specifics of ownership of the Truman Annex. I put down the National Park Service as governing body only b/c they administer the entire National Register of Historic Places. So, technically correct, but incomplete. My goal is to at least create minimal stubs for all the historic Florida places, and those who know more hopefully can modify and expand.

Dunno much about the Keys, as such. Grew up in Miami, live in Ocala now, and have done a lot of road-tripping around the state. The Keys are on the list to explore more, but not for a while.

I'd recommend these two for more specific Keys info, they seem to be the experts:

[edit] I never cease to be amazed at the malicious vindictiveness here

Hello. You said, I never cease to be amazed at the malicious vindictiveness here. As it would appear that this statement was made in relation to my actions, I would like to respond. The fact is that the overwhelming majority of these school articles cannot meet our verifability policy, nor can they provide reliable sources. Yet, if nominated for deletion, as would be proper, uncited and unsourced support will spring fully-formed from the sea, regardless of whether or not we might have policies and guidelines which might be relevant, and both policy and precedent will be ignored by people who somehow feel validated by having their high school represented on Wikipedia, regardless of whether or not it properly belongs here under our policies and guidelines. Thus, those of us who truly believe in the importance of constructing a legitimate encyclopedia are left but to vandalise. And so we shall. 87.98.217.163 04:50, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] John Vernou Bouvier III

It is important to keep a cool head, especially when responding to comments against you or your edits. Personal attacks and disruptive comments only escalate a situation; please keep calm and remember that preventive administrative action can be taken against other parties if necessary. Attacking another user back can only satisfy trolls or anger contributors and leads to general bad feeling. Please try to remain civil with your comments. Thanks! --cholmes75 (chit chat) 17:19, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

You should probably reread the comments on John Vernou Bouvier III. They were directed at a process where one editor can unilaterally nuke a article which I think is wrong. At least with the afd process other eyes can evaluate. Americasroof 19:06, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Mta-sunnyside.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Mta-sunnyside.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

[edit] Gerald Ford

When editing, I accidently deleted your most recent changes. Please add back what you changed, but do not revert back, because that will undo what changes I implemented. Hope that makes sense. Veracious Rey talk ↔ contribs 15:07, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

No problem. Editing can get tricky, especially on current events when info changes every five seconds. By the way, if you would like to comment on the last discussion topic on the Ford talk page, I would appreciate it. Veracious Rey talk ↔ contribs 15:30, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
I read your lates post to the discussion. Keep up the good work. We need good editors and people willing to monitor the Gerald Ford page. Too many vandals. That's why I had them semi-protect the page. Veracious Rey talk ↔ contribs 15:14, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Arthur Bryant's

Hi, I think you made a slightly confused revert to the Arthur Bryant's article. The previous editor removed Harry Truman from the sentence listing celebrities who had visited since the Playboy article (1973), which obviously could not have included Truman, who died in 1972. However, Truman is mentioned above in the same paragraph, as having visited before the Playboy article. Your edit summary was right, but your edit restored Truman to the "since then..." sentence. I changed it back to the previous version, which is correct. Best, --MCB 17:05, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the note -- best, --MCB 17:29, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
