Some California-related stuff going on at Wikipedia.

[edit] Google Wifi

This really isn't the place to ask that stuff, but check Google's FAQ and the forum referenced on that page. (John User:Jwy talk) 21:31, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Hmm, or are you asking that be put in the article? (John User:Jwy talk) 21:39, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

hi, just so you're aware, you've misspelled the word 'and' in the filename of the file "IRAQ map black nad white.jpg" Zmbe 00:14, 13 March 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Deep Springs Valley

Hello! I noticed that you added information about CalTrans to the Deep Springs Valley article. Deep Springs College bought that station some 10 years ago (it is now called Henderson Station by the college). I studied there 2002-4, and at that time, Caltrans had reduced their presence to a collection of road signs and occasional equipment that they kept near the station. Unless they've recently expanded this collection, I feel that 'operates' and 'facility' are strong words. Where did you get your information from? Unless I'm mistaken, I'll correct your paragraph in a few days. Jugander 16:40, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Two Girls and a Guy

Thanks for adding the stub categories to Two Girls and a Guy while I was busy rifling through the list of all possible stubs... User:David Jordan 11/19/2006.

No problem! I'm surprised that it didn't already exist, considering the cast list. It's a good film. Perhaps you can look at the film infobox template as something else to add to raise the standard of the article, along with all of the great information that you have already contributed?

[edit] Do not repost deleted material

You have recently re-created the article Image:CRISCO systems.jpg, which was deleted in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policies. Please do not re-create the article. If you disagree with the article's deletion, you may ask for a deletion review. —Psychonaut 14:19, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GIF images

Hi, I noticed that you have uploaded a number of images in the GIF image format. As I try to convert all of these to the smaller, lossless PNG format, would you like me to change the images on your userpage as well? If you'd like to give me a hand with converting all of them, it would be appreciated, as it will take me quite a while on my own, if it gets done at all. ---Remember the dot 05:35, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Mood fart.gif is a great example of an image which has been significantly distorted by being in the GIF format. The GIF format is limited to a palette of 256 colors, making it really really bad for photographs. Please save your images in the PNG format instead because it is 100% lossless - it will not distort images in the slightest.---Remember the dot 04:12, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Untagged image

An image you uploaded, Image:OLD MV2.JPG, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 08:55, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Snow Creek Village

Hi Brien. Snow Creek Village, California is south of Interstate 10 near Cabazon, I think. It's between Beaumont and Whitewater somewhere. It consists of about 40 homes: a small place. It was described in the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection Riverside Ranger Unit Fire Management Plan 2005. The plan talks about areas with vegetation fire problems — so someplace of similar size out by Blythe might not be listed. User:David Jordan 11/27/2006.

Hi David. I still can't find much information on Snow Creek Village, you are right--it must be quite small. I have, however, stumbled into more unincorporated communities in Riverside County from the County's Building & Safety page. Some of them, like Glen Valley and Glen Ivy, are also found in my Thomas Guide. If you're still interested in helping track down small inland empire communities, there are a lot of good leads here.
