Welcome to my talk page. See the old stuff here in that cool little filing cabinet
Woohoo, I am first to post here. I am trying to finish the List of tributaries of Larrys Creek. Depending how they count expansion, I may be able to get a DYK out of it (...that Larrys Creek in Lycoming County Pennslyvania has 42 named tributaries in its watershed, including one named "Little Dog Run"?). I need to reply at Oil Creek too, but am not sure if Caroig (who made the Geoboxes) is still active - need to check that. Glad you can access wiki at work, take care, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 17:39, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
The Black Mo map is up - let me know what you think. I did not label the roads and the day use district is too big to label here, but I will try to make the detail map of the three districts soon. I need to do some wikilinking and add some refs to the new tribs list, then I want to submit it to PR and FLC. Also want to get some feedback from WikiProject Rivers on it. Take care, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 02:56, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
I have Francis Bok on my watchlist and saw the discussion on self-published sources, so I weighed in with my view on it. I think it might be useful to go to Wikiproject:Biography and ask about this there to see if they have any insight into the whole autobiography as source and identifying alleged slave-owners issue. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 01:29, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Welcome back - I am sorry to be so slow on Black Mo. I have a question though - I could swear I read somewhere that the current dam is actually from the 1950s (not the CCC 1930s dam). It also looks newer than 1930s. Did you read this anywhere? Ruhrfisch ><>°° 03:03, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

I got distracted from adding Infoboxes in Crawford County, but I do intend to finish. Warren County is also on my to-do list. Does it matter that I'm using Geoboxes instead of the Infobox Settlement? -- Dtbohrer talk• contribs 18:41, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
That works. How far east should work up to? -- Dtbohrer talk• contribs 00:50, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
According to the USGS GNIS there are 10 creeks in Pennsylvania with "Licking" in their name, although that includes one "West Licking Creek', one "East Licking Creek" and one "Little Licking Creek'. See here. My guess is that most Licking Creeks are named for salt licks. "Mahoning" is Lenape for salt lick, so if you count all those (plus Sinnemahoning = stony salt like), you'd have a lot more. I checked there are 5 creeks with Mahoning in the name here and 7 with Sinnemahoning here. Off to geologize. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:48, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

I scanned the whole 1984 state parks history and found some more data. It confirms the CCC and 1937 opening date, says the name was made official in 1954, gives the 1970 park acreage as 3518, says there were major developments at the park between 1971 and 1980 (no more details sadly), confirms the private firm taking over ski operations in 1980, and gives the 1984 acreage as 3481.
The current acreage in the article and on the DCNR web page is 3394, so the acreage of the park has decreased from 3518 in 1970, to 3481 in 1984, to 3394 today (a decrease of 124 acres).
I also found info on the airport - it was founded as "Black Moshannon Airport" in 1946 and switched to the "Mid-State Airport" name on April 4, 1962. [1] The airport today is a Keystone Opportunity Zone and has an area of 484 acres. [2] It was created from state forest and state park lands, and there is a law protecting both the park and forest from further airport expansion. [3]
The only place I can see from the map where land would go from the park is to the airport - what do you think? What should we add to the article? Ruhrfisch ><>°° 01:31, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
(unindent)Thanks for all your work on KOZ and Black Mo SP - what do you think of the alternate hook at DYK? Also glad you are OK with my Archbald addition. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 20:06, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
Will do - thanks for the catches and for merging the islands with Allegheny Islands SP (there's another challenge to get to GA someday). I will also ask for a volunteer to look at the Black Mo PR, do you think we should list it on the PA and PA talk pages too? Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:48, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
PS I forgot to thank you for listing me on the PR - I think Black Mo has been your show and was glad to help a little. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:49, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
Hi Dinch, I asked two volunteers for PR help. I also thought of asking Ben MacDui (although I owe him a review already), Daniel Case, and Dtbohrer. I reread the Presque Isle FAC and noticed we have a history gap here too (after the CCC there is just the ski area). What would you think of renaming the "Former ski resort" section to something like "Modern era and ski resort"? Then it could have the current ski resort info in it, plus move the new dam there (1950s), mention the airport there (1946 and 1962), the official name (1957). It could also mention the NRHP historic districts (1987), Natural Area (1994), Allegheny Front Trail (1990s), and perhaps move the 20 must-see parks here too (it is here in Presque Isle).
I also have a sentence or two on kayaking on Black Mo creek to add, and a book on Hikes in PA that has some info to add. Does this sound like a plan? Ruhrfisch ><>°° 14:44, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
(unindent) I added the map to the Historic Districts section and moved the Pavilion 4 picture down to the Friends of BMSP section, plus added a dam pic and a lake pic. Are they OK? Does it all look OK? Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:13, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Do you realize that General Lafayette simply re-directs to Gilbert du Motier, marquis de La Fayette. This makes your edits to the various places named for the general moot. I am sure that your point is valid. Perhaps this issue should be taken up at Talk:Gilbert_du_Motier,_marquis_de_La_Fayette.

I have a couple questions on the Black Mo copy edit and removing excess links. So far I have just checked all the links, now I need to remove duplicates. As I see it, I do not count links in the Infobox (Geobox). The first question is do you want one link per article or at most two - two would be lead plus the second time it is linked. The second question is can I move the area into the first sentence - most of the PA state park articles give the area in the lead - either "..is an X acre PA state park in.." (Presque Isle does it this way) or "is a PA state park on X acres in..". Black Mo gives the area as a short second sentence. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 02:30, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Hello. I noticed you have reverted several edits relating to town elevations by 24.115.148.30 ( talk). I almost reverted them earlier, but on investigating I saw that some of the new numbers seemed to better agree with the a google earth view of the communities than did the existing elevations. I've asked the user to provide a source, but I believe the new values to be more accurate. Perhaps the existing numbers represent a low/high/mean elevation within a geographic area, rather than a representative elevation of the town's developed areas. -- Tcncv ( talk) 21:26, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

My understanding is that if it is in the Susquehanna watershed and in PA, as far as we know the Susquehannocks were there too (which is why I picked out those 5 or so articles in the 21 must see). The problem is that the Susquehannocks lost their war with the Iroquois about 1675 and disappeared, and the Europeans didn't do much in the area until decades later (although some came through the area, like Etienne Brule, and John Smith of Jamestown met some Susquehannocks near the mouth of the Susquehanna).

Worlds End State Park |
Ruhrfisch ><>°° 02:50, 24 April 2008 (UTC) I think Worlds End, Ricketts Glen, Colton Point, Leonard Harrison would be fairly easy to get to FA, and Cherry Springs and Hyner View would be harder to get beyond GA. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 02:58, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
Woo-hoo! Great work and thanks for letting me know, now it is two down, only 118 to go ;-) Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:11, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

My understanding is that if it is in the Susquehanna watershed and in PA, as far as we know the Susquehannocks were there too (which is why I picked out those 5 or so articles in the 21 must see). The problem is that the Susquehannocks lost their war with the Iroquois about 1675 and disappeared, and the Europeans didn't do much in the area until decades later (although some came through the area, like Etienne Brule, and John Smith of Jamestown met some Susquehannocks near the mouth of the Susquehanna).

Thank you from me, as well! It's not everyday you see woodland creatures with a bit of bling. :) Congrats on the FA, great job done. María ( habla con migo) 19:59, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
