Sorry about restoring the Prod... was unfamiliar, and should have researched the correct protocol before I did it. Just went back to the page to revert my own change, but you had already taken care of it. Will take it to AfD. Onel5969 ( talk) 20:16, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for your bold copyedit of the article. Now I am brave enough to make a GAN. Have a nice day. Borsoka ( talk) 04:10, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
Is it OK for me to go ahead and make this small matter historically reliable, or would it be a waste of time because we're in "You've argued with me so I'll use the rules to obstruct you" territory? Hengistmate ( talk) 14:01, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
I am just trying to help tourists. I made my posting in the correct section of the page. I mentioned the glass balcony which is not mentioned anywhere else on the page. It is significant information about tourism in Chicago. So I am not sure how you can call it "redundant".
What I posted is good information for someone wanting to know about tourism in Chicago. Help me out here. How can I mention the Willis Tower as a popular tourist destination, and mention the unique glass balcony without you deleting my post? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lester12483 ( talk • contribs) 01:02, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi,
I have old passport from 1950 & 1956 that clearly show such an added clause to a visa issued to a US citizen. I can send such an image, will this permit me to leave that section you undid?
Thanks.

I see no need to remove the section about Clevelanders who made it big nationally.
They are part of what makes Cleveland Cleveland...pointing out all the folks from here who are all now big time stars.

@ Vjmlhds: Sorry, but that's not what that section is for. I've added a discussion on the Talk page, which is where this discussion should be taking place. And since you broke the WP:3RR, might I suggest you self-revert your fourth reversion, before I have to get an administrator involved? Thanks. Onel5969 ( talk) 18:10, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
Awarded to Onel5969 as a gesture of showing that I wish to have a peaceful working relationship, rather than an adversarial one

In case you haven't noticed, the Census Bureau released the 2013 estimates for all cities and towns this morning. The lists can be found here. The top link lists all the top cities in order, though I don't know how to link to the table itself. Although technically most of what you reverted was uncited, the Quick Facts page for each city will have the 2013 numbers soon. And what I changed (OKC->27th) wasn't incorrect. The Wikipedia article just hasn't been updated yet. I will be reinstating the number with a citation. Kennethaw88 • talk 03:07, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
hi onel5969 just a heads up that that article is using british english, i noticed you changed a few like centre to center etc. just to save you or some other editor the work of changing it back later — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.11.25.142 ( talk) 21:39, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
i had a look back at the first few edits and they were done in british english so im guessing that is why. i forget what the rule is called but im meaning the one where if it is started in an english variation it carries on in it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.11.25.142 ( talk) 22:30, 26 May 2014 (UTC)

Long time no speak! I hope you've been doing well. As you can see from the title, I'm coming back to give you a quick update on The FP. I've added a lot more information and images. Drafthouse Films was wonderful and changed the licensing for two images of the cast and crew, and I got an image of an actual filming location. I've also added a Visual effects section, expanded the Cast section (which I plan to do even further once I get the film on DVD), and done a lot of copy-editing. I was wondering, if you had any time, if you'd be willing to give it a gloss over and see what you think I might need before going to FA. If you can't, I totally understand! Thank you for all the help you already gave me during the GAN. Corvoe (speak to me) 17:20, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi! Thank you for requesting a copyedit of Bonnie Tyler for GA. Very interesting topic! It's also great that you're working with another editor, or indeed helping another editor, to get this article approved to GA status.
The copyedit is now basically complete, however there are a variety of things that I need to check with either you or the main editor working on improving the article.
I don't have a list of all these right now, but one very immediate question is, what year was Tyler born? One WP:SPA chooses to challenge the official version. Any thoughts on how to resolve this? -- Demiurge1000 ( talk) 19:57, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
Are you sure b/c I'm thinking it's not the correct grammar. The Verb/Subject agreement seems off .... both are plural with "draws tens of thousands" and that isn't correct right? Am I missing something
@Onel5969 thanks for clearing that up.
