Looking through your contributions, I notice that you seem to be interested in Kansas state highways. In that case, I encourage you to join WikiProject Kansas Highways and WikiProject U.S. Roads, where you can edit alongside other roadgeeks that will help you learn the ropes and write articles consistent with other states' highways. I look forward to seeing your work in the future! —Scott5114↗ 17:53, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] K-368 (Kansas highway)
Did you really write an article about a road that's only one mile long? I'm not sure if Wikipedia needs this type of article, because there's not much to say about the topic. Do you agree? --Mblumber (talk) 01:27, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Map references
When referencing a map, could you please use {{cite map}} to identify which map it is you are referencing, as opposed to merely linking to the page with all the maps? It makes it easier to verify information if an individual map is cited. Thanks! —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 14:07, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of K-61
A tag has been placed on K-61 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. 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 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. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. LegoTech·(t)·(c) 06:14, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] K-61 (Kansas highway)
Which map did you use for reference four on K-61? It's important to specify which historic map you use so that other people can verify your work; it's recommended that you use {{cite map}} inside the <ref>
for this purpose. Good job on the K-61 article, by the way; it's very comprehensive. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 18:40, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
