Good luck!

When you edited the WITF page, you deleted the page instead of moving it, which wipes out the edit history of the page. Try reverting your changes, moving the page (an option available at the top of the page next to "edit this page" and "history") and then starting a new disambiguation page. However, at first glance it appears there is nothing all that notable or encyclopedia worthy of the What's in the Fridge Program, please familiarize yourself with wikipedia at Policies and Guidelines and revert errors you may have made. Thank you. Leontes 19:17, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

Dear Wrightchr;

Thanks for making the Skyline Sports Complex article.

[edit] Witness and Girl, Interrupted

hello. thanks for adding the filming locations to the Girl, Interrupted (film) page. just curious, what did you add to the witness (1985 film) page? Poisonouslizzie 20:20, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Poisonouslizzie. The only thing i added to Witness was the mentioning of Lancaster County in the beginning paragraph. It only mentioned Intercourse, PA before, and most people have no idea where that is. Wrightchr

[edit] Requested Changes

Completed as requested. Glad I could help. --Zsinj 19:24, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] {{train-stub}}

Please do not use {{train-stub}} on railroad articles. Instead, use {{rail-stub}}. {{Train-stub}} is a redirect to {{rail-stub}}. Thanks. Slambo (Speak) 12:08, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Darius Couch

You had changed the date for the burning of Chambersburg from 1863 to 1864. I changed it back again to the historically correct 1864 date, which is when John McCausland burned the town in conjunction with Jubal Early's Valley Campaign. Scott Mingus 03:52, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cat Cities on the Schuylkill River

Some of the category members are boroughs, not cities. Should the category be renamed? Dddstone 13:05, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Have amended, you might want to add in some other entries for the list. :-) ShakespeareFan00 00:40, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Citadel alumni

Not a complete list of alumni, just notable people - similar to most college pages. Rillian 03:28, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category:American liberals

  • Looking on your userpage I see that you are a fellow Republican. Even though there is a category labeling "American conservatives", the category labeling "American liberals" is up for deletion. This is obviously by liberals who don't want the bias pov of liberal celebrities and public figures to be known. So they don't want them categorized as what they are...liberals. I'm asking you to go to "Category:American liberals" follow the link to the nomination page and please vote to keep the category. -- AmeriCan 17:47, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] HACC

I have no problem removing the information about the clubs and organizations on the page, however, the college does maintain a one-college policy; hence Harrisburg is not the main campus. The midtown campus is not a campus, it is an extention of the Harrisburg campus, according to the college president, Dr. Edna Baehre. --myselfalso 17:26, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

I talked with the President myself, and she has specifically said that while it has the name "Midtown Campus" it will not operate as its own campus. I know this because, as being the Editor-in-chief of the student newspaper on campus, I asked her about the one college policy, and what she thought about what the paper should do. We agreed; the paper should cover the Harrisburg campus, but she suggested that I try to get copies of the paper down to the Midtown campus because it would become an extension of the Harrisburg campus. Right now the plans for Midtown are to move most of the technology classes from the John N. Hall Technical Building to Midtown, and then open up Hall Tech for more academia-type classes. Midtown will not have its own dean like the other campuses do. According to Dr. Baehre, she is perfectly happy with the college expanding to 5 campuses (Harrisburg, Lebanon, Lancaster, Gettysburg, and York) and have a number of campus extensions (the Penn Center, Midtown Campus, CCTA). Also, the College Master Plan, which is the current operating plan of HACC, does not call Midtown the "Midtown Campus". It refers to Midtown as a campus extension of Harrisburg.
It is also nice to see another editor putting up information about the Harrisburg area. Hopefully more editors from the area will join in and help out. :) --myselfalso 05:38, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Camp Hill High School

Thank you for your contributions to the CHHS article. I am a 2004 alum and like to see better information on my hometown's HS. However there is a problem: a lot of the material you added to the history section is copy/pasted directly from the CHHS website. That is plagarism, since the copied material is not in quotation marks, and a minor copyright violation as well, so I removed or rephrased the parts that were directly copied. While I appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, we can't add substantial amounts of copyrighted material to it, even if we do cite it. The best solution is to rephrase most material, and use direct quotations only according to WP:QUOTE#When to use quotations, which is an inactive but still useful policy page. Thanks, and happy editing! --TexasDex 01:06, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Ah, ok. If you're the person who originally wrote the content then unless you were under a contract with a copyright clause it's yours to copy share and copy as you wish, and I'm willing to take your word for it that you wrote it. I would reccomend though that if you want to copy self-written material that has already been published elsewhere you make a note of it both on the talk page and possibly in comments in the body of the work. Incidentally there was another reason that I had to reword the copied text: it was no longer accurate! Specifically it listed the library in 1977 as the most recent improvement to the school, when that is no longer true, and hasn't been since the 02-03 construction. --TexasDex 05:46, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Cities on the Susquehanna River

Hi, can you clearly define what the scope of the Category:Cities on the Susquehanna River. You're including more than cities. In fact you are including unincorporated settlements like Apalachin, New York which is just a hamlet within the Town of Owego. ccwaters 13:52, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Ditto for the list: List of cities and towns along the Susquehanna River ccwaters 13:55, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
FYI: See Administrative divisions of New York. A New York town is akin to a PA township, and a village is akin to a borough. ccwaters 14:04, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
I spot checked 5 or 6 entries at Category:Cities_on_the_Mississippi_River, and didn't notice any settlements that were not cities. Being roughly 6 times as long, I would think it would have a lot more the 58 entries if given the same treatment as you have give Category:Cities on the Susquehanna River. If you were true to the name I think the category would include only Oneonta, Bingo, Wilkes-Barre, Harrisburg, Havre de Grace, and Williamsport on the West (That's via a quick tracing on google maps, no thorough fact checking). ccwaters 20:23, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Well I think naming these categories "Cities...." out of convenience is wrong by encyclopedia terms. I see 4 scopes and names:

  • 1) "Cities on.." cities only
  • 2) "Incorporated Settlements on" that would include cities/NY villages/PA burroughs/ and any incorporated exceptions (Bloomsburg, home rule charters ie Norristown)
  • 3) "Municipalities on" that would include anything previously mentioned plus NY towns/PA townships/ etc. Basically anything that has some form of government
  • 4) "Named Places on" /"Settlements on..." That would include anything with a name. Hamlets, developments, Subdivisions, census designated places, anything mapworthy or wiki article worthy.

Your currently are implementing 4 while calling it 1. I think 1 is too sparce to be a category, especially if lesser rivers were to categorized similarly. 4 is overboard. 2 or 3 seem to be a good.

I only included NY and PA because that is what both of us are most familiar with. Other terminologies should be able to fit within those 4 scopes. ccwaters 23:49, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New NRHP Collaboration Division

Hey, saw you were a participant in the National Register of Historic Places WikiProject. I thought I would let you know that there is a new Collaboration Division up for the project. The goal of the division is to select an article or articles for improvement to Good article standard or higher. There is a simple nomination process, which you can check out on the division subpage, to make sure each candidate for collaboration has enough interested editors. This is a good way to get a lot of articles to a quality status quickly. Please consider participating. More details can be seen at the division subpage. IvoShandor 11:17, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:New stadium hbg.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:New stadium hbg.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ccwaters 19:28, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:GannettFleming.gif.

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Logo barnstormers.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Logo barnstormers.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:48, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikimedia Pennsylvania

Hello there!

I'm writing to inform you that we are now forming the first local Wikimedia Chapter in the United States: Wikimedia Pennsylvania.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Wilkes-Barre City Seal.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Wilkes-Barre City Seal.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Angr 19:26, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] An important letter

Dear roads editor,

You may have noticed some changes at WP:USRD lately. Some of them, like the cleanup templates and the stub templates, have been astounding and great. Unfortunately, others have been disturbing.

This has become evidenced by the departure of a few prominent editors at USRD, a few RFC's, and much fighting among USRD editors.

After the second RFC, many of us found the opportunity to take a step away from Wikipedia for a while--as a self-imposed wikibreak, or possibly on vacation.

The result of such introspection was that many of us were placing ourselves in a "walled garden" and on a self-imposed pedestal of authority over the roads department. Also, we were being hostile to a few users who were not agreeing with us.

In fact, IRC has been the main incarnation of this "walled garden." Decisions have been made there to conduct grudges and prejudices against a few valued USRD users with poor justification.

For this, we have come to apologize. We have come to ask your forgiveness.

In addition to this, we hope to work as one USRD team from now on and to encourage cooperation instead of the promotion of interests.

All users are welcome to collaborate on IRC, the newsletter, or anywhere else at USRD.

In the future, please feel free to approach us about any issues you may have.

Regards,

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Lxa coat.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Lxa coat.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 05:27, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of List of people from Harrisburg

List of people from Harrisburg, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that List of people from Harrisburg satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of people from Harrisburg and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of List of people from Harrisburg during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Man It's So Loud In Here 19:32, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello, Wrightchr. We had a few urgent matters to communicate to you:
