Does having worked for a few years in the city qualify them as a Minneapolitan? Not really challenging, just wondering what the criteria are. Wahkeenah 10:34, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

I think anyone who lived there for some purpose other than being a student qualifies someone as a Minneapolitan. Bellczar 01:31, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

I reckon that makes me a Minneapolitan, even though I'm sure exactly how to pronounce it, never having heard the term spoken out loud. Wahkeenah 05:24, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

Or a former Minneapolitan. It's pronounced just like Neapolitan with min in front of it. Min-nee-uh-POL-i-tun.Bellczar 18:14, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

Not "former" yet. Thanks for the explanation. I shudder to think what a resident of Indianapolis would be called. Oh, wait, I know: "Hoosier". :) Wahkeenah 20:48, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Bridge name

The 10th Avenue Bridge connects 10th Avenue SE with 19th Avenue S. A long time ago, I gather, it connected with Cedar Avenue to the south. But when I look at both Google maps and Mapquest, it is still labeled Cedar Avenue Bridge. Is there any documentation to support the name 10th Avenue Bridge?

It is what everyone calls it. In the old days, it was called both the 10th Avenue Bridge and the Cedar Avenue Bridge, much as some call the Lake Street Bridge the Marshall Avenue Bridge. (Incidentally, the 3rd Avenue Bridge is the only bridge in Minneapolis that was ever officially named by city ordinance. The ordinance named it the St. Anthony Bridge, but no one calls it that.) The name Cedar Avenue Bridge is no longer used. The bridge closed soon after the adjacent I-35W bridge opened, and it was closed at least nine years, until about 1981. (Repairing the bridge was not a priority since there were so many bridges in that area.) Anyway, soon after the bridge reopened, Cedar Avenue was truncated at Washington Ave. and a hotel and municipal parking ramp were built where the avenue used to be. In 1984, the city built a bridge along 19th Avenue South over the unnamed highway that connects to the Washington Ave. Bridge (which has been known over the years as US 12, State Highway 122, and County Road 122, or simply as "New Washington"). As a result of this, almost everyone gets from Cedar to the bridge by way of 19th Avenue South and most people have forgotten that the bridge once connected to Cedar.
Furthermore, the name "Cedar Avenue Bridge" is in widespread use to refer to the bridge over the Minnesota River on Minnesota 77/Cedar Ave.Bellczar 03:55, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Andersondaryl.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Andersondaryl.jpg.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too.

[edit] Nonsense of Adi Braun

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Adi Braun, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Adi Braun provides no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Adi Braun, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Andersondaryl.jpg}

Thank you for uploading Image:Andersondaryl.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.
