Welcome to Wikipedia! Have you been doing the edits to the One Life to Live page? If you have, they're stellar! I've been waiting for a soap opera contributor to come along; I've done most of the work. Reply on your talk page or mine, whichever is convenient for you. To sign your name, type four tildes (four of ~). Mike H 20:20, Jul 8, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] thanks

Yes I have been editing the One Life to Live page. I saw the "Guiding Light" and "As The World Turns" pages, and thought there was more to be said about "One Life to Live". Also, I edited Erika Slezak's page and added a pic. Thanks for the complement. Johnnyjoe23

Johnnyjoe23 20:29, 8 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Do you post at any soap opera boards? I post at WoST and TWoP. In any case, it's great to have someone else with soap expertise editing. Check User:TheCustomOfLife/Articles to see the articles I've written. The one I'm most proud of (and got nominated for Featured Article Status) was Another World (soap opera). Mike H 20:36, Jul 8, 2004 (UTC)

I posted previously on WoST and occasionally do so at the ABC One Life to Live Message Boards.

It's always good to have a second opinion. Feel free to edit mistakes in my articles. Put Category:Soap operas in the search engine to see all of the soap opera listings at Wikipedia. Mike H 20:44, Jul 8, 2004 (UTC)

I had a question at Talk:Ellen Holly. Maybe you can help me answer it. Mike H 22:45, Jul 8, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Columbia

Hi Johnnyjoe, I changed the "most prestigious" part of the Columbia University GSOJ page to "one of the most" since we have in general tried to stay away from declaring anything "the most" unless it is quantifiable. Hope to see you around Wikipedia. Thanks. Fuzheado | Talk 23:52, 13 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Soap opera actors

When you create a new soap opera actor page, add them to Category:Soap opera actors by using Wiki-links ([[ ]]) and placing in the links: Category:Soap opera actors|Last name, first name. I think I added the category to every existing OLTL profile as of yesterday. Mike H 23:59, Jul 15, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Erika Slezak

Please review Wikipedia's Neutral point of view policy. RickK 05:13, Jul 20, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Publicity photos

The photographers of the publicity photos you've posted of Susan Lucci, Erika Slezak, etc. may not like their work posted here without being notified. As such, I have changed the pictures in the articles to fair use screenshots, something I know for sure we can use. Tell me if I missed any. Mike H 00:12, Aug 5, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Box

I would appreciate it in future if you consulted me before you chopped off such a big chunk of the soap template. Mike H 05:48, Aug 21, 2004 (UTC)

I apologize for chopping it off. I was doing little cuts and snip-its to the OLTL site and thought that if I chopped off some of the soaps on the template box that it would only affect the OLTL site. It was only afterwards I realized my mistake and tried to fix it.

No problem. Mike H 21:30, Aug 23, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Erin Torpey

I'm going to ask Rick, but I'm sure she said goodbye to Viki in the very last week of 2002. I know IMDB says 2003 but IMDB is often wrong. Mike H 21:30, Aug 23, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Cuts at The Jeffersons

Hi Joey! Please see: Talk:The Jeffersons Thanks! Quill 00:22, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Hello Johnnyjoe23. Could you comment briefly at Talk:The Jeffersons about the changes you made? Thanks. ffirehorse 00:55, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)

If I came across as having an attitude, I apologize. ffirehorse 01:42, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Your images

[edit] Image:Miami brickell.jpg

Hi there! Thanks for adding the image Image:Miami brickell.jpg. It currently doesn't have an image copyright tag, and I was hoping that you would add one as untagged images may be deleted eventually. (You can use {{gfdl}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) Thanks! --David Iberri | Talk 19:27, Oct 29, 2004 (UTC)

Could you also provide source information (and perhaps update the image copyright tags) of these images too?

Thanks! --David Iberri | Talk 19:35, Oct 29, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Metromover

I see you've been doing lots of work on Metromover and other Miami public transit. I took the liberty of creating a new category, Miami Metromover, which is a subcategory of Metro and I have added the Metromover stations, just empty placeholders where there was not an existing entry. I tried writing some of the station guides but not knowing the geography (I'm in London) I wasn't very successful and gave up rather than risk writing something misleading. --Minority Report|Talk 16:32, Nov 19, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] South Florida

Hi, I see you have changed the ranking of South Florida metropoliatan area from 10th to 6th. To follow your line of facts, you may as well change the United States metropolitan area, as that Wikipedia page lists the area as being 13th.--Mad Max 22:49, Nov 26, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

[edit] Tri-Rail and Metrorail transfer station

You just copied the contents of this to Tri-Rail/Metrorail Transfer Station, which I had moved it from. First of all, this is not the proper way to move a page; you should use the move link, or, it that doesn't work, put it on Wikipedia:Requested moves. Second, I believe it is Wikipedia policy not to use / in the title of an article, as that implies a subpage. --SPUI 23:56, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Now you're doing the same with the Tri-Rail stations. Please stop, especially since you are not moving them correctly. Also, the standard for Wikipedia, at least in the US, is Foo (System station) - Wikipedia:Naming conventions (stations). --SPUI 00:02, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Are you sure that the yard trackage used by Amtrak in Hialeah is owned by Metrorail, or does Metrorail maybe have a separate yard? --SPUI 19:52, 26 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Sorry for being unclear - I was referring to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Amtrak&curid=51928&diff=0&oldid=0 . --SPUI 20:00, 26 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Robin Strasser

I reverted your edits about her middle name. I was editing from an anon IP at the time, and IMDB says that this is her correct middle name. Considering the date she was born, it seems valid. Mike H 17:58, Jan 1, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] How to create highlighted maps

I wanted to know how to create a highlighted map? Could you get me some tips or link me to a page on this site to how to create one?

[edit] Farley Granger & Sammy Davis Jr.

Hi, imdb incorrectly lists them. The award Sammy David Jr was nominated for was in 1980, not 1979, and was actually won by Hugh McPhillips from Days of Our Lives. The 1977 awards did not have a supporting actor category. Granger was nominated in the Best Actor category but lost. Seee this page for more info [1]. Thanks for your attention though. - PS I have informed imdb of the incorrect listings so they should be changed in a few weeks. Dowew 20:53, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

-Further more please see the Wikipedia pages about the Daytime Emmy Awards

[edit] M-DCPS

Hey, Thanks for your great contributions to the M-DCPS article, but I have a question about Booker T. According to Miami-Dade's website, and the school's own site, Washington was opened and built in 1986, the comment you added to the article doesn't reflect that, perhaps the original B.T. Washington was not the same as the current one, or is there some sort of mistake there? I always heard Edison was the first black school in Miami, but I could be wrong. What do you think? -- PRueda29 Ptalk29 23:36, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

OK, I understand now. -- PRueda29 Ptalk29 23:47, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I just recreated a page for Brandon Buddy (Cole Thornhart) of One Life to Live, which apparently has been previously deleted at least once due to "lack of notability."
