[edit] Just a little more about myself... if you're really, really curious.

So, if you ever come to the misi-zaaga'iganiing on the beautiful banks of the m'de wakan and see a curious fellow running around wearing a yarmulka... that's be me!

[edit] Berry Creek Rancheria

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Berry Creek Rancheria, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Asubpeeschoseewagong First Nation‎

I have reverted your edit of Asubpeeschoseewagong First Nation‎. WP does not include contact info in articles. See Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_directory for a guideline. -- Alan Liefting-talk- 02:21, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Anishinabek of the Gitchi Gami

Anishinabek of the Gitchi Gami was deleted because it was NPOV and written like an ad and went uncontested. (I didn't consider it notable enough to have an article so I did not defend it.) If I can obtain the original version I might be able to salvage that but that requires admin abilities. I'll try asking someone after I fix up FWFN. I don't have a camera but I know people who do, I may be able to get pictures of their business park or arena, etc., and maybe an image of the reserve from McKay. I'll ask around on Flickr. vıdıoman 18:19, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Kechewaishke

Since that good discussion that came out of User:Herbwag's comments, I've been expanding the Kechewaishke article, and I'm starting to see it as a potential future-GA or even FA. There is a lot of work still to be done (my semi-incoherent grammar for one), but I don't think it can be called a stub anymore. I realize you have a lot on your plate, but a reassessment with comments would be much-appreciated. Chi-miigwech. Leo1410 (talk) 20:56, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Did some clean-up, but there wasn't much to clean-up. Also, gave it "A" for IPNA/Nish but only "B" for WI... see comments on why. But yes, once those points mentioned in the comments are added and last of issues Herbwag have expressed are addressed... and also have in-line citations to the references listed... then yes, I think at that point the article will be ready as a potential GA or FA.

[edit] Numbered Treaties

As you wish... I'm in no rush. In some ways, I felt kind of bad making that template when there were so few actual articles. Sometimes I feel like wikipedia editors (myself included) are more interested in organizing than adding content. From what I see, you are going to the effort of actually researching, creating and expanding articles, so I appreciate that. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 04:22, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Lumber baron

Thanks for following me around and adding this link. You might try Muskegon, Michigan (Hackley), Saginaw, Michigan, Grayling, Michigan, Killmaster, Michigan, Bay City, Michigan, Gaylord, Michigan, Alpena, Michigan and Black River, Michigan. You can follow Russell Alger everywhere, too. Some of those cities' articles may not mention the lumber barons explicitly, but we a little bit of mining (google) a lot of their history and landmarks are tied to lumber barons. Best regards. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 20:29, 22 February 2008 (UTC)Stan

You're welcome... but me following you around is just a coincidence. My link journey started with Hanging Cloud then I began doing a Google search and came up with only 87 instances of "lumber baron" and so all I was doing was going through them one after another. CJLippert (talk)
I understand. I've encountered similar coincidences, or parallel gutters. Anyway, you might look at the Lumberman's Monument, and Hartwick Pines (and "Hartwick" anywhere -- big lumber baron), plus the other virgin white pine forest that is listed at the Lumberman's Monument. Can't remember the name, but its over in the nw corner of Michigan. You'll find it. If you're doing lumber barons, Michigan is a great place to start. It was like the 'Silicon valley' of its time, and created vast numbers of millionaires. 2 billion board feet of lumber will do that. Rasmus Hanson was one that I found particularly ironic: after detroying the habiitat in which the Grayling survived, he tried to revive them. He deserves his own article. Anyway, you're doing good work. Best regards. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 00:18, 23 February 2008 (UTC)Stan

[edit] Sagamore (title)

Thanks for your additions to Sagamore (title). I just want to check that you're sure the words you're adding are all cognates in the literal sense. A few of them look like they might not be. Thanks! - House of Scandal (talk) 16:20, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

There are two types there, the ones derived from Proto-Eastern Algonquian sākimāw and the ones derived from the Proto-Central Algonquian hākimāw, but both types carry identical meaning of "chief." CJLippert (talk) 16:34, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
That's great! It sounds like you're working from a good source. Can you please reference it? Best wishes - House of Scandal (talk) 17:01, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Good map

CJ, I just wanted to let you know that I stumbled across this map of yours (Image:MN-Terr-1849-1851.jpg), and thought that it is very good. Colors, historically, format... it's just a plain good map. Thank you for your contribution. —ScouterSig 18:19, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, there is a similar map for St. Croix County, Wisconsin. CJLippert (talk) 21:30, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Peter Jones

Okay, thanks. The disambiguation of titles is not a particularly rigourous area - once it hits a GA nom, maybe someone will drag out an obscure section of the Manual o' Style, but until then I'll move it to the simpler Peter Jones (missionary) or (Missionary), depending on the usual convention. Cheers, WilyD 20:45, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

For clarity, and in case any third parties are ever involved in editing Peter Jones (missionary), I'll start putting messages on its talk page, instead of asking you directly? Should I drop you a line, or are you watching it? Anyways, I got Jones' spelling for Golden Eagle's name, which I saw you put a note about. Cheers, WilyD 12:25, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
Yes, I do have Peter Jones (missionary) on my watchlist. I try to have all articles tagged with WP:IPNA/Nish template on my watchlist, though new articles generally just get the WP:IPNA template or in rare cases the article creator do actually use the WP:IPNA/Nish template, so every so many months, I just make a sweep of all the WP:IPNA and converting some to WP:IPNA/Nish, and then adding the new WP:IPNA/Nish articles to my watchlist.

[edit] John Jones

Hmm - this I'm not so sure. I'm planning to look more into John in the future, but he's listed here as John Jones / Thayendanegea / Tyantenagen - I'll look at Sacred Feathers when I'm at home, but I'm not sure what it says. Since he shares his name with Joseph Brant, it's quite hard to track. The Dictionary of Canadian Biography gives the same two spelings. DCB gives the meaning of Brant's name as "he sets or places together two bets" but is alternately given as "two sticks bound together", for instance. WilyD 18:06, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] John Cameron (chief)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of John Cameron (chief), and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.biographi.ca/EN/ShowBio.asp?BioId=37175. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 17:29, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of John Cameron (chief)

A tag has been placed on John Cameron (chief) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
