Let's put the Monroe page on the same page that Tehachapi High School is on, High Schools in Kern County, California and speedy delete the continuation high school pages. I know of 3 other continuation high schools in Kern County, but that's not enough, but I've reworded some stuff on Monroe that states it's an alternative high school, so that it will work on the high school page. When you click on where it says high school for Monroe, it will take you to the [[continuation high school page, but that will look better to have Monroe on the high school page.--JoeCool950 (talk) 05:51, 13 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Please consider withdrawing/speedy-closing Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2008 November 13#Category:Continuation High schools and secondary schools as moot as a result of JoeCool's recent actions. Except for minor discussion over whether the one remaining category should be "in California" or "in the United States" there's nothing left to discuss. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 15:22, 14 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

I put it up for CFD partly to develop that consensus, because even though I think it would be fine to have a category, I'm not sure what it should be called. A major problem with the article continuation high school is that it doesn't even explain that these schools are located in California, or even the United States. As it stands, I think the articles need to be migrated to "Category:Continuation high schools in California", and the old category deleted because "high school" is not a proper noun. --Jh12 (talk) 15:40, 14 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi Jh12, You gave such a thorough and complete review (the best kind!) of Brunswick (Brittonkill) Central School District before and I was hoping you might do another one since the article has been expanded greatly. I'd very much appreciate your thoughts! ~ Wadester16 (talk) 19:33, 4 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

I very much appreciate it - take your time. On a side note, where did you find that reference for the opening of the elementary school? The Record is the best source for (very) local news where I'm from, but its archives are not digitized online. How did you find that? ~ Wadester16 (talk) 13:20, 5 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

I found the Record reference from an online newspaper archive (it may have been LexisNexis), but I can't remember. One of the advantages of practically living at a health science center is that the institution subscribes to almost every online archive. When it comes to schools, LexisNexis is my favorite, although some schools are even covered in journals found through JSTOR. Combined with Google News and Book searches, a lot of information (often worthless) can be found. Best, --Jh12 (talk) 17:43, 5 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Oh and I just wanted to point out that most of the information in the History section comes from a few documents I was able to find at the town historical society. This shouldn't count as original research; I didn't compile the info, I just photocopied the original documents that a previous town historian compiled (along with images). Hopefully you agree. ~ Wadester16 (talk) 13:26, 5 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Are you serious? None of those statements are libelous, as the are not defamatory, and they are very obviously parody. In addition, a number of the entries added by myself and my fellow LUHS alumni were, in fact, not false in any manner, notably the entries on Mike Vaugh, Peter Kunstek, and Frank Keeler.

Furthermore, the entries that had been put up were just part of an ongoing project being undertaken by myself and a group of fellow alumni, in an effort to make something that students of LUHS could actually be proud of, instead of the gross mismanagement carried out by administrators, lackluster courses, horrifically sports-centric budgeting, the police liaison officer being arrested for child pornography, the mounting racial tensions, etc. etc.

Hello, I added a bit to the lede of this piece. And I've been trying to add another graduate. Already added Richard Morris Hunt, architect. I'm trying to add his brother Leavitt Hunt (who is listed on the same page of the Jenks' BLS book). I put in the citation from googlebooks, but can't figure out how to make it appear right. I left some messages on the talk page of Pgb688 , but he seems to be away. (He had earlier added Richard Morris Hunt.) If you wouldn't mind giving Leavitt Hunt an assist, that would be great. (Incidentally, if it makes it any easier, both Leavitt Hunt and Richard Morris Hunt are both listed on the same page of the Jenks book; and so the Jenks book could be substituted as a reference for both.)

Hi. Just a quick note to say thanks for the barnstar. Paul Largo (talk) 22:54, 23 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thank you so much for helping with the North Sea GA review. We should have no image copyright problems, there are even credits given to the image author when requested. The references are all correct and formatted. I don't know why Pilcha is not getting a preview of the pages, as they all come up on my computer. He wants attention to detail so the wording of the long forties which used to be that the long forties used to say a nautical chart showed many forties, but the only available citation says that the average is 40 notations, and that they measured...33, 34, 35 etc. So the text was changed to pay attention to detail. I have had other GA reviews, and have learned a lot from Pilcha, but it feels more like a FA review. If you can give any advice at all it would be appreciated. SriMesh | talk 01:14, 9 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Part of the problem is precision, e.g. figuring out if every sentence is referenced exactly as written. For example under Geography, it says "For the most part, the sea lies on the European continental shelf. The only exception is the Norwegian trench, which reaches from the Stad peninsula in Sogn og Fjordane to the Oslofjord." I think the Barale reference at [1] better supports this, rather than the Hardisty reference at [2]. Then there's all the little things, like making sure all references have the publisher, use the same date format, etc. I think you may want to recruit editors and assign them specific sections to go through with a fine tooth comb. The more eyes checking the article refs, the better off we should be. I'm afraid the reason it feels like an FA review is really because of the size and because it wasn't written with the refs to begin with. It has, however, come a long way from where it was before --Jh12 (talk) 17:41, 9 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

• About the ref details, for a spell, the user Rosiestep went through and standardised old and new refs, as that is what they like to do. I tried to keep up with the same process after that. I also changed the way I looked at the refs, as per the final note on the GA review. Thank you for everything.SriMesh | talk 21:57, 18 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the note about the North Sea article. I will move on somewhere else for a bit. I was just adding and tweaking references so that the content is verifiable, and I was ready for a break. Good luck with the economy section. It is pretty goodly referenced right now. I shortened it due to a lack of citations, so ir it can be re-lengthened with citations it would be awesome. Kind Regards SriMesh | talk 17:56, 16 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Me again. I think I finished re-opening references of the North Sea article, and matching details of prose to the corresponding citation, thus providing verifiability for the GA. Your idea of dividing into sections to check was a good idea as well. I changed text so that it matched the facts proved in the citation this time, and had to delete some of the text, if I couldn't find a citation from last time, or this time. I let Pilcha know that I went through again. I am not sure where you are at in your endeavours. I sure hope it works out better this time.

You did a fantastic job with WP:WikiProject Schools and I was hoping you could give me a few pointers. I've started WP:WikiProject Capital District and want to know how to incorporate the table that lists all articles based on class and importance. In addition, would you mind taking a look at the code for Template:WPCapitalDistrict to make sure it will do what it's supposed to? It's basically a rip off of Template:Hudson Valley but I'm unsure if there's any advanced code that I may have missed or misunderstood. Keep in mind that the WikiProject is currently a work-in-progress and content will continue to be added as I have time.

I do apologize because an upcoming exam will prevent me from doing more, but I can recommend some things. First, carefully follow Wikipedia:Version_1.0_Editorial_Team/Using_the_bot. It has all of the instructions needed for "Setting up for the bot." You'll have to create the categories Category:WikiProject Capital District, Category:Capital District articles by quality, Category:Capital District articles by importance, and all of the subcategories (e.g. Category:Stub-Class Capital District articles, Category:Start-Class Capital District articles, Category:High-importance Capital District articles, etc.). For your project banner, I actually now recommend using Template:WPBannerMeta; it should make setting the banner up easier. Template:WikiProject Utah is an example of a project that uses the meta template. If the banner and categories are all set up as described at the Using the bot page (most category problems happen because of spelling errors or the lack of a hyphen), the bot should automatically run through talk pages with the banner on them and create three links under Category:Capital District articles by quality like at Category:Utah articles by quality. One of those links will be Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Utah articles by quality statistics, the nice table that can be transcluded to any page or template. Sometimes it takes awhile for the bot to run. You can manually force a run at http://wp1en.kiwix.org/cgi-bin/wp/wp10/run_wp10.html, although I've never tried it for a new project. Good luck, --Jh12 (talk) 04:43, 21 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

I am not sure how to handle User:BettyStokes She continues to try to write the article about Trunnell Elementary School in the category name space. I just reverted her edits at Category:WikiProject Schools and left a note on her user page. I hope I was not too "biting", but I just do not know how to get the point across. For someone who claims to have been the school principal, she has absolutely no understanding how to work with Wikipedia and apparently simply ignored your previous post on her talk page. Dbiel ^(Talk) 00:07, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

If she is a new user, she may not know the terminology of what category name space is. Try doing a move or redirect to a proper name, and let her know where her content is at the new URL. Kind Regards ~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by SriMesh (talk • contribs) 02:48, February 4, 2009

There are several problems related to the previous reply (noting that, yes she is a new user that apparently knows nothing about Wikipedia)

• The content does not meet minimum notability standards.
• Move is not possible as the Category page is a valid category page to which Betty simply inserted her "new" article, which by the way she had also inserted on two other category pages under a different user name.
• We could create a new article page using cut and paste, but at the same time would need to add a speedy delete tag, doing both just does not make a whole lot of sense.

Thus the problem of what to do. Dbiel ^(Talk) 04:13, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

• I recommend copying the work (whatever isn't copyrighted) to BettyStokes's userspace (e.g. User:BettyStokes/Draft) and informing the user of what's going on. While it's true that we don't want a lot of fluff or non-notable, permanent material in userspace, in this case I think we can live with it because the user intends to improve the article and someday it will hopefully be up to Wikipedia notability standards. The main problem is explaining WP:NOTE, WP:COPY, and other policies to User:BettyStokes. The intricacies of Wikipedia can be hard for a newcomer to understand, so it may take some patience. I'll help keep a look out of course. --Jh12 (talk) 13:25, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

User:SriMesh has gone ahead and created a new article at Trunnell Elementary School.

Hell there, seeing as how I made a comment, thought I should follow through. I created the article, and wrote the library for further citations. It may or may not survive. I know around my neck of the woods not too many elementary schools are notable, but I know a lot of elementary schools in England are...so we'll see. I cannot find too much more online from way up here... If the library contacts me I will post their letter on the school talk page. If the article does get tagged for AFD, then it could for sure go to Betty's sandbox pages. Kind Regards SriMesh | talk 18:39, 4 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hi Jh -- once a upon a time you researched old episode titles of Adventures in Good Music via an Internet Archive thingie. I was wondering if you could do the same magic with Exploring Music. I'm trying to vamp up the latter article, and could use a list of various weekly themes. (I tried unsuccessfully to do so once with whateverthatis, but I must/may have been doing something wrong. If you have time, thanks in advance! (I guess you can reply on my Talk page or here, either one.) Softlavender (talk) 04:19, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

It all kinda depends on snooping around and figuring out where the page was or better yet, finding the website's own archive. In this case, the website has archives at http://www.exploringmusic.org/oldplaylists.htm and http://www.exploringmusic.org/playlists.htm. I don't know if that's what you were looking for. The Internet Archive website has an archive of a few of the base homepages for http://www.exploringmusic.org at http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.exploringmusic.org, but it seems pretty incomplete. I don't know if I mentioned it before, but if you ever see a webpage you want to personally archive and preserve, you can use http://www.webcitation.org/; it's tedious to archive pages manually, but it can be better than leaving things to chance like the Internet Archive. Best, --Jh12 (talk) 13:38, 13 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thanks, that Playlist archive was probably the best idea that works -- I don't know why I didn't think of that. It only gives the silly first part of the theme's full title, but it's better than nothing. Yeah, I had gotten the same result as you using the WayBack Internet Archive, and even though it looks like it has a couple year's worth, it doesn't -- it's mainly just the same date's page repeated over and over.

I have a question on notablity which you may be able to answer: If a school is clearly not notable, as for example in the case in some unheard of, insignificant village school, to have its own article, how do the members or managers or projects and categories justify insisting on creating articles or stubs about every single establishment that falls within their category or twithin the project's jurisdiction?--Kudpung (talk) 11:47, 10 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Schools are an area of significant debate. Perennial attempts to develop a policy on the matter have failed (see Wikipedia:Schools). What I can say based on prior experience at articles for deletion is that typically, a primary school that does not or cannot demonstrate WP:NOTE is merged/redirected to an appropriate locality. Secondary schools are typically kept because enough secondary sources can be found to justify creation. In my opinion, the creation of large numbers of clearly non-notable schools/stubs cannot be justified per WP:NOTE and if a user or project is doing so, they need to be informed that such articles would be unlikely to survive an WP:AFD and are more likely to wind up as a redirect. To avoid any problems, it is in their best interest to ensure the school can establish notability before the article is even created. --Jh12 (talk) 13:57, 11 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

I reviewed the three images in question, and I can't determine with absolute certainty that they were produced by the National Park Service or a federal employee under a free license. It isn't clearly labeled who Michael Becker worked for in [3] and the other two were taken by the American Association for State and Local History and the Louisiana Tourist Commission.

Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you are listed as a Wikipedian in Louisiana. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at Louisiana State University, which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester. The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).

If you live near Baton Rouge and you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone else from the area who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 17:13, 6 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading File:Jakarta International School logo.png. 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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 21:59, 10 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

- Thank you for the message Stefan2. I can confirm the image in question should be deleted at the earliest convenience as the school in question has changed its logo. I will not be removing the deletion template. Jh12 (talk) 05:09, 11 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

The article United States at the 1964 Summer Paralympics has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Information already exists at the 1964 Summer Paralympics article.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
