DOT capitalization

Please see http://www.roadfan.com/mtrfaq.html#9 for the abbreviations of state departments of transportation. Note the capitalization in particular - it is KDOT, not KDot.—Scott5114 17:54, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Re: BL-80

Thanks for the heads up. I was kind of skeptical about adding that. I'm trying here. I'm trying. :-) PhATxPnOY916 06:25, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Blocks

Hi,

There is no real difference, except that the Wiki software recognises one and not the other. It's done by expiry dates; therefore, to block a user permanently you block them without an expiry time i.e. indefinitly. The user was blocked for an inapropriate username, as you will probably have worked out, so I set the block to allow him to edit from his IP or create a new account, whatever he prefers, should he so desire.

Good job

But there still is a long way to go on Formation and evolution of the solar system. Entire paragraphs and even entire sections remain virtually unreferenced. The beginning and the end are OK, but the middle is one big dead zone. I'm waiting for Ruslik; he's really good at tracking down sources, but he's quite busy at the moment.

Sandboxes

Please do not create a sandbox in mainspace. You can use the wikipedia sandbox at WP:SAND, or create one in your userspace, e.g. at User:Freewayguy/sandbox. Thanks. – Tivedshambo (talk) 21:36, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Deleted images

--Freewayguy--meet 01:14, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

They're uploaded on the Commons...you'll need to request their deletion there. Even if they were uploaded here, this isn't the place to request deletion. --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 02:01, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
Deleted by User:O-good job; we don't need those image since they duplicate

Re this edit

Please be aware of what the parameters are called, and do not make them up. Print out Template:Infobox road/doc and put it on your wall if you have to. --Rschen7754 (T C) 03:36, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

  1. FFC0CB is color of pink-It will be helpful to change on int classifiacation. jctclse should be pink and jct concur should be pale yellow. Because we have jade green for decomd. --68.126.1.136 (talk) 01:38, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Jctint colors

I reverted all the changes you did to concurrency, closed, unbuilt, and decommissioned to {{Jctint}} colors. Please do not change the colors again, they were fine the way they were, and by changing the colors constantly confuses many people. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox, thank you. —JA10 TalkContribs 22:16, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Discuss problem on my talk. —JA10 TalkContribs 00:03, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Actually most of the colours is fine as original except we should use green for unbuilt rather than purple. I originally misunderstood junction list with exit list. By the way the exit list on some CA aritle have green colour conversion because they don't comply and needs to be fixed.--Freewayguy ^Meet 20:50, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Interstate 19 Business (Nogales, Arizona)

A tag has been placed on Interstate 19 Business (Nogales, Arizona) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's 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.
