John-Mark is taking a long wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia if he decides not to retire.

PHOTO-RELATED DISCUSSION has been moved to User_talk:Jgilhousen/photo_issues to keep it separate from collaboration on articles and WikiProjects.

[edit] Thanks!

I'm off on a 10-day trip, and will hopefully be staying away from computers for much of it. Look forward to replying in more detail when I return, and plotting a course to better OR gov't pages!

Happy wikiing, -Pete 12:05, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] renaming Mt. to Mount

It looks like you're well into it. Thanks for doing that, but just in case you thought it was easy, here are a couple wrinkles you might look for:

—EncMstr 22:11, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

I am trying not to change links to images, but a few may slip through. There are almost 7,000 instances of "Mt." or "Mt" for mountain that I have found so far. So, for the rest of today, I'm limiting my work to a subset: those referring to Mount Hood. I thought I'd review the changes made on that batch afterward by going through "my contributions" to see if I could spot any changes that shouldn't have been made, and revert them (and come up with a strategy to avoid repeating those errors). AWB defaults are not always what I expect, and I am checking the changes before saving them, but sometimes the result in full context is not obvious from what is displayed in AWB. Also, I can't move/rename if the correct name already exists and redirects to the abbreviated one. In those cases, I'm having to list them on the Move Requests page for an Admin to deal with. (I can't believe how much total garbage pops up when you do an odd search like this. A "notability" freak could become apoplepctic.) -- "J-M" (Jgilhousen) 22:21, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mt. Spokane High School

Just as an FYI, I've moved your request to move Mt. Spokane High School from uncontroversial to controversial. As odd as it may seem, Mt. Spokane High School is the school's official name, not Mount Spokane High School. Check out the image of the front of the school and the school's homepage. --Bobblehead 05:20, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mt. Juliet, Tennessee

I appreciate your desire to rename "Mt." to "Mount", but in this case, your edit is erroneous. The city's official name is written in the city charter in the abbreviated form. The longer "Mount" is accepted, but technically incorrect. --Zpb52 23:35, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Well, Phooey

Here I come back from my wikibreak and now you're going? I hope you come back! Enjoy a nice contemplative wikibreak and stay in touch. We'll miss you around the WikiProject. I really appreciate all the hard work you've put in on the government stuff. In the meantime I'll be watching the Capitol Channel and trying to keep up the government articles for ya. Katr67 05:57, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] echo...Phooey.

I was excited to see someone was doing such excellent work in the areas that interest me. I hope you come back! Enjoy the break though, I gotta say I can understand why you might need one...this stuff is addictive! -Pete 02:48, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Roth richard.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Roth richard.png. 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Localzuk(talk) 02:11, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Aflciologo2.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Aflciologo2.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Wikibreak permanent?

Your user page wikibreak notice hints that you might not come back. If that is due to lack of respect or desire from the Oregon wikieditor community, let me be clear: Please come back! I'm amazed at the number of articles which you've had a significant hand in; no wonder you flamed out! Katr67 burned out for awhile too—perhaps you worked too closely together? Anyway, I hope you'll return. I eagerly await seeing more of your magic. —EncMstr 23:10, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mt. Baldy Ski Lifts

As with the high school and the city mentioned above, "Mt. Baldy" is the NAME of the resort. It is a trademarked name and not an abrreviation. Although the renaming was accomplished with good intent, it was unecessary and should be remedied. -Shaggorama 18:19, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies

Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of unassessed articles tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --Ozgod 20:49, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
