[edit] Thanks for the Barnstar!

Thanks for the barnstar! It really surprised and of course delighted me. Going through the highest buildings in Missouri has really been fun and very eye opening. Thanks again! Americasroof (talk) 03:50, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

And thank you for mine! I just noticed it today. Any time you would like to join the St. Louis Rams WikiProject, you are more then welcome. I've been the only active one there since I've founded the project. :) --Pinkkeith (talk) 19:06, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Notability

When tagging notability or nominating for deletion, please note that players in the NHL are notable, even if they have played only a game or two. see WP:COMMON and WP:STUB. And governor -generals of Canada most certainly. And people nominated for Academy Awards and all towns, communes, villages, etc.

And when you nominate for Prod, notify the author. Not literally required, but polite. DGG (talk) 18:34, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks - I am still learning how to use WP and I appreciate the patience.Roscoestl (talk) 02:34, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Toasted ravioli

FYI, per WP:HEAD (same rules as article titles): "Only the first letter of the first word, letters in acronyms, and the first letter of proper nouns are capitalized; all other letters are in lower case." Currently, the section heading you added reads, "Composition, Varieties and Service". —Viriditas | Talk 11:38, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip. It has been fixed. (Though that was so minor, why didn't you just do it? I would've understood the lesson just the same...) Roscoestl (talk) 13:33, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

True, but I had no way of knowing if the article was on your watchlist or if you were just stopping by to make an edit. Please contact me if you ever need any help. And, if you have an interest in this article, I would like to work with you on expanding it. —Viriditas | Talk 05:25, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Check out my user page. I plan to review and improve St. Louis food-related articles (when I get the time). Help will be more than welcome! Roscoestl (talk) 06:02, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] My Ted Drewes pic

I'm glad you liked my picture. I just happened to realize that I had this picture, and the other Wikipedia picture doesn't capture the crowds (or the glowing, campy charm you get at night). The picture looks extra cool because of the glow off the streets, which is because it had been raining and was in fact misting when I took the picture--and then pouring down rain thereafter. Throughout the crowds remained consistent. As you know, the crowds can get a lot bigger than this on most weekend summer evenings!
