Dincher, I would be glad to help promote the Galen Hall article to Class "B" and then Good Article status. I've got plenty of references for his time in Gainesville, but what I could really use are some good reference materials for Galen's time as PSU quarterback, Oklahoma OC, his arena football coaching and his time back in State College as OC for JoePa. Best source is probably Google News Archive. If you want to see examples of what I like to do for coach bios, have a look-see at Doug Dickey and Bob Woodruff. Both are still works in progress. Even better, look at the non-coach GAs that I've written for Andrew Sledd, Albert A. Murphree and John J. Tigert. Drop me a wiki e-mail from my user page and we can trade ideas further off-screen.

I changed the format of the bullet lists in Bruce so that the page size script would count the bullet points in the Trails section. When we started the expansion it was at 11 kB, were at 28 kB just before this, and after the format change we are at 30 kB. DYK needs 5x expansion generally (to 55 kB), although if we get it over 4x (44 kB) and it is basically ready for FAC I am guessing we could get an WP:IAR exception from the DYK rule.

Issue is fixed; it's just Clearfield. My source for so saying is this Census Bureau document. If you want to download it, you'll find it potentially useful: sort the "Name" column to get all instances of each municipality grouped together, and check the "County" column. The numbers in this column are the FIPS codes for the counties; you can find which is which simply by searching for a county name in the column, since of course its entry in the FIPS code column will be the FIPS code for the county.

Hi.
I would ask that you restore my addition of the georeference for the Gull Point observation deck. The Gull Point trail is poorly marked, especially at a fork. Locating the observation deck can be a frustrating experience, easily relieved with a GPS waypoint. Of course, the deck is open to the public when the trail is open, so I am not providing information that would be prohibited. I have high confidence in the quality of the coordinates provided, as I obtained them myself via GPS last fall.
Thanks,
--Gene 173.48.107.143 ( talk) 15:25, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
The platform is clearly marked, but the trail isn't. Try it sometime. The park map lacks any georeferences besides an arrow pointing north.
By the way, public places like Presque Isle only exist today because they are travel destinations. Anyone searching the web for a place like Gull Point is probably expecting to go there.
Whatever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.48.107.143 ( talk • contribs) 16:00, June 20, 2010

I have high confidence in the quality of the coordinates provided, as I obtained them myself via GPS last fall.
Thanks,

The platform is clearly marked, but the trail isn't. Try it sometime. The park map lacks any georeferences besides an arrow pointing north.
By the way, public places like Presque Isle only exist today because they are travel destinations. Anyone searching the web for a place like Gull Point is probably expecting to go there.
Whatever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.48.107.143 ( talk • contribs) 16:00, June 20, 2010
I got Tomasak's fairly new Biography of Colonel R. Bruce Ricketts and as a result have added about 5 kB to the Ganoga Lake article - diff. I am asking the FAC and PR reviewers to please take a second look at the Ganoga Lake article and make sure it still reads smoothly and clearly. If you find problems, please raise them on the article's talk page. Thanks in advance, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 17:35, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
