[edit] WikiProject Southern California

Welcome to WikiProject Southern California.

Since you are in West Hollywood, California, I'll warn you that many of the Wikipedia articles for that area (e.g. Sunset Strip), seem to be hit quite a bit with anonymous IP edits, probably from real estate management companies, that try to promote various residential buildings, as well as the addition of E!-type gossip. I don't know the area well enough to know if any of the buildings are important, but if they are names that I don't recognize, or barely recognize, while living only half-way across the LA Basin, then they are probably not important to an encyclopedia article. If you know of any building that are truly of historic or architectural importance, feel free to add them to articles (with references added so everyone will recognize that they really do have significance).

I added some photos on a bike ride this morning. I also have a good pic of Sunset Gower Studios also, but i guess i need to write an article first. Minnaert 21:06, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
Thanx for the photos. The articles sure needed them. BlankVerse 13:40, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
I was back on the streets with my camera again, and added a few images. I'm trying to work through the articles for the Hollywood / West Hollywood area.: Minnaert 19:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pages Created

I guess i should keep track of some of these.
These are the pages I have created.
I try to be thorough and use referenced information. Lots of stuff I end up working on originates from something i read in the Los Angeles Times.

These are some pages where I have made significant edits:

[edit] Hanna-Barbera Building

This is no longer high priority as April 12 has passed, so don't feel pressed. Still looks like an interesting building, though. Thanks.--Pharos 21:15, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much. That's quite an interesting "futuristic" sixties building, isn't it? I guess it would be classified as Googie architecture. Oh, and if you have any photo request in the NYC area, I'd be glad to return the favor.--Pharos 07:48, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Photos

Wow! Those are great pictures. Thanks for uploading them. Cheers, -Will Beback · † · 08:28, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wattles Mansion

Thanks for adding that photo - that really caps off the work I did on the article. If only I could get someone in Omaha to follow up on that end of Wattles' legacy... Thanks again! • Freechild'sup? 05:10, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
