[edit] Todt Hill
Let me thank you for taking the time to explain your edits to the Todt Hill article on my talk page. However, I have some issues with the claim made.
First, I agree that the term coast is narrowly defined, but the article specifically stated and linked to the "U.S. East Coast" which is not so narrowly defined. I also believe changing it to the "eastern sea coast" is disingenuous because that still implies the East Coast of the United States.
Second, as you pointed out, Great Blue Hill is taller than Todt Hill but, as th eGreat Blue Hill article says, it is within 10 miles of the Atlantic (and only about 3 or 4 miles from Quincy Bay and Boston Harbor). Todt Hill seems to be about 2 miles from the Lower New York Bay, and then another 4 or 5 miles to the mouth of the bay and thus the Atlantic. Making it at least 6 or 7 miles (or 2 miles to the nearest bay) compared to Great Blue Hill's 10 miles (or 3 or 4 miles to the nearest bay). With such a small difference, I don't see how one could be considered "coastal" and the other "inland." (Also, neither seems to fall within the narrow definition of coast.)
Third, and this is probably the biggest issue, there are no reliable and multiple sources cited for that claim. The external link on this page says "Staten Islanders claim it is the highest summit on the Eastern Seaboard south of Maine." Notice, it only says "claim" and gives no evidence to back up that claim. (Besides, the article also states that the Fresh Kills Landfill will be higher by 2002.)
Therefore I am changing the page to read "Staten Islanders claim it is the highest summit on the Eastern Seaboard south of Maine" because that is the only statement that is verifiable. - Ektar 21:11, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Murray the K
Hey, thanks, Rev! Really nice of you to say so. I was sad to see a small page for Murray so I dove in and spent quite a few hours last night and this afternoon (just saved!) researching and expanding it. I think it's on the way now to being a comprehensive article, although could certainly use more work - hope you and others will jump in with corrections and additions. Would like to beef up the personal part - I know he had 6 wives and 3 kids but not much more. Which son did you know? My husband worked with Murray for a while on the NBC show and we've heard from Peter, the son who runs the Murray the K archive. Mostly, though, I remember Murray from the radio, spinning his magic for all those years. Thanks again for writing!Tvoz 19:38, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Proper tagging of Images in the Chicago Bears article
Wow, that is a tough one. You're not the photographer but you're the owner of the only known copy. Well, I say just you put in the image description the situation as you explained to me. I would think you're reasoning would be enough but it would be nice to have it in there in case some over zealous admin or editor comes by. I'll make note of our discussion in the Image Review. If you find my answer unsatisfactory or you just want another opinion, you can raise the question with many other editors at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for taking the time and informing me of the situation.↔NMajdan•talk 14:21, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Morgan Taylor
They look adequate, but what you heed to do is list them out under a section called "External links" which are flanked by two equal signs (=). Then it should be adequate enough to remove them. I hope this helps. Chris 17:31, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
- It is. Good job. Remember to please cite sources. Go to WP:CITE if you have any questions. Chris 21:23, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Your father
Thanks for the kind words, I liked what you added about the exhibition game they played in in 1930 very interesting. Incidentally you told me once before that Hap Moran was your father. I subscribe to the NY Times and have access to their archives. I found a couple of article mentioning him. I emailed them to the address on your website. Quadzilla99 23:59, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
