I don't know if you are a fan of minor league baseball - but the Florida State League is about to start its season next month. Many of the teams need photos (I'll take care of the Daytona Cubs) Gamweb ( talk) 22:05, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
Can you keep an eye on this page? I'm well past 3RR (although vandalism is exempt, and I think his edits qualify as such), and nobody seems to be responding to the RFPP and SPI requests I filed. Horologium (talk) 17:56, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Happy to pitch in. It's always good to have a second set of eyes review these things with all the details involved. Great work with all the photos. I'm slowly but surely making my way through the Bay Area. Now that it's finally stopped raining here, I plan to get back out there with my camera in tow. -- sanfranman59 ( talk) 03:12, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
Hi, I just started the above article on a place in my home town. Its current name is the Professional Building. Please put it on your list of places to photograph on your next swing through the Tampa Bay area. Best wishes and many thanks for all your many kindnesses. clariosophic ( talk) 15:59, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
WOW, you're quick! Thanks for adding the pictures. I just read about this place in the morning paper and decided to do an article on it. clariosophic ( talk) 19:16, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
Hi, hey in starting up Bernhardt E. Muller architect of Opa-Locka, i wonder if you have pics to add. Also it seems there's a lot of FL NRHPs lacking articles. Any help appreciated. P.S. Other Florida architect Marsh & Saxelbye and builder O.P. Woodcock also could use help, if you might be interested. Cheers, -- do ncr am 17:24, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for helping out with rating the importance of some of these lists; thought I might have to finish them out on my own. I was about to start going through Texas, but I'm not sure if you're still going with AWB or not. How, exactly, are you going through the counties? I was going through and doing them state by state, but it appears as if you're just going through the remaining lists in alphabetical order? Should I just hold off and let you finish, or what?-- Dudemanfellabra ( talk) 18:51, 22 May 2011 (UTC)
That's actually funny, because I was about to head over to the Hialeah Seaboard Air Line Railway Station a few weeks ago to take some photos, and saw that you had already done so and put them up! Beautiful photos, too, gorgeous color. -- Jhw57 ( talk) 18:29, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
I see you've joined me again in assessing the importance of all the National Historic Landmark articles. I was wondering how you were going about doing that. I remember a while ago that someone (not sure if it was you) was just going off the "National Historic Landmarks in STATE" categories. If you're doing that, yes it does catch nearly all of the actual NHLs, but it can also catch some non-NHLs. Many editors that don't know the difference between a regular NRHP listing and an NHL listing mistakenly put articles into these categories that shouldn't be in them. To avoid that, I would advise checking to make sure the state list of NHLs is in the "What Links Here" page. Without AWB at my disposal (they still don't have a mac version), I am forced to go through the state lists manually, which sucks, but it is also a lot more accurate. Just throwing out suggestions. Thanks for the help!-- Dudemanfellabra ( talk) 19:16, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
You may wish to comment in a discussion in which you were mentioned at WT:NRHP#Comment on Straw Polls, "decisions" and consensus. Thanks. -- SarekOfVulcan (talk) 14:15, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

If you know of any NRHP lists that qualify for the 90%+ illustrated list, please add them right below the Fully Illustrated lists.
All the best,
Ebyabe - I see that you were in on the original construction of the Miami Wikiproject page. I have recently been trying to improve the assessment of Miami articles. In this work I have looked at the Wikiprojects of other cities for comparison. New Orleans is a good example. I see in New Orleans' Assessment chart there are Qualities such as Category, Portal, Project, and Template. Other cities have these qualities too, but Miami doesn't. I have spent a few hours trying to fix this but I am getting nowhere. Could you fix it? And then tell me how you did it? Thanks, GroveGuy ( talk) 02:37, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Where are the Miami Template articles? Can you make them show on this chart? How do you add lines to the chart? GroveGuy ( talk) 05:59, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Well, I think I found it. On the page Template:WPBannerMeta it says we need the value "extended" for QUALITY_SCALE. The current value for our project is "yes". New Orleans uses "extended". Could you look this over and then change it from "yes" to "extended"? I saw the change you made. I can't guess what it would do.-- GroveGuy ( talk) 02:44, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
It looks much better now. Thanks for your help. -- GroveGuy ( talk) 20:54, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
Hi, Thanks for your message. I'm sort of in the summer doldrums. I got one Martin article done last week and started one in St. Lucie. Hope to pick up some speed. Best wishes. clariosophic ( talk) 20:57, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
Hi, You might be interested in this article which just appeared [1] I have gathered some more info on here [2] clariosophic ( talk) 22:20, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
Sorry I didn't get back to you right away. I'm still taking photos, though not contributing nearly as many to the site. I fill in some holes where I can. I have visited a lot of sites lately though. I recently moved to Chicago and it has been very soothing as far as my architecture/historic sites fix goes. My most recent contributions are: File:Chicago, Illinois Gauler Twin Houses 1.jpg, File:Chicago, Illinois Gauler Twin Houses 2.jpg, File:Chicago, Illinois Uptown Theater1.jpg, and File:Chicago, IL Basilica of St. Hyacinth.jpg. I have also been doing a bit of article work. My only real recent creation was Starved Rock Lock and Dam, which hit DYK. I've done some pretty major additions and alterations (including sourcing) to Winston Burdett, Larry LeSueur and Starved Rock State Park. I have also been trying to maintain the subcats at Category:Underground Railroad locations. So the Wiki work isn't as prolific but I'm seeing more amazing buildings than ever before. I hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Until next time, adieu my Wikifriend. IvoShandor ( talk) 05:00, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

1492 NRHP listed places and counting. Amazing and prolific work that should be admired by all of Wikipedia. IvoShandor ( talk) 05:07, 1 August 2011 (UTC) |
Ahh, thank you, thankyouverymuch. :) Yes, I've pretty much done Florida. There are a few odds and ends, but mostly archaeological sites or really inaccessible places. So I'm pretty much done with the major jaunts, which is kind of weird. I'm doing some pre-planning for Georgia, but also taking virtual roadtrips via Google Street View. 'Cause it's cheaper, doncha know. :) -- Ebyabe ( talk) 05:45, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
I'm a bit suspicious of all those class-B articles being added as high-importance. In particular, I don't see how The Breakers is at the same level as Monticello. If that's what you intended, of course, that's fine, but the edit summaries showing auto-replacement worry me. -- SarekOfVulcan (talk) 20:59, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for your message. When I was younger (and probably stupider) I drove by that church hundreds of times going from Florida to the Carolinas and back. Never once stopped. What a shame. clariosophic ( talk) 12:28, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for your note at WT:NRHP and for the photo list. I think I've got the list format problem almost solved. And I've put another note at WT:NRHP. One problem I see coming up here is : "How to get up interest in a project without being too pushy?" (The way some other editors have been accused of in the past).
All the best,
Smallbones ( talk) 22:50, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
Hi Ebyabe, I noticed that you have recently split the National Register of Historic Places listings in Georgia into a new structure than before. What alerted me to this was the appearance of National Register of Historic Places listings in Dougherty County, Georgia on the list of new articles in the NRHP project. I'm not sure why the rest of them haven't shown up on the list, but they could possibly show up after a future run of the bot. While I have no problems with the restructuring, I noticed that none of the lists you created for individual counties had the WP:NRHP banner on the talk page. While I'm still working on tagging and rating the importance of all articles in the project, the project's lists are all tagged/rated now (and if I'm not mistaken, you helped with the final push of getting them done?). I've gone through and added project banners/rated the new lists you created, but I wanted to bring it to your attention in case I have missed previous changes such as this or in case I miss future ones. It would be very helpful in terms of keeping good project statistics if any new restructurings would be announced on the project talk page, just to alert people of the change in case you or whoever is implementing the change forgets to add these banners or in case someone objects to the change. Thanks!-- Dudemanfellabra ( talk) 17:44, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
Hello Ebyabe! I hope you enjoy this cookie as an amicable greeting from a fellow Wikipedian, SwisterTwister talk 06:41, 29 August 2011 (UTC) |
Thanks! | |
For all your "Wonder"ful work keeping the NRHP lists updated. -- sanfranman59 ( talk) 21:01, 1 September 2011 (UTC) |
I don't disagree with rating Romeo Historic District mid-level importance--it's a large and diverse HD, after all--but be cautious if you're using the criteria of a site having an additional Michigan state designation. The Michigan Historic Sites list is fairly large, and I think bumping *all* Michigan state-listed sites up in importance will result in a top-heavy importance scale, particularly in certain counties. Andrew Jameson ( talk) 16:44, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
You appear to be adding "needs-infobox=yes" to the talk pages of articles, particularly bridges, that already have an infobox...well, geobox, but an NRHP infobox wouldn't be needed for those anyways. See, [3], [4], and [5] for the most recent ones I noticed. Niagara Don't give up the ship 20:55, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
I saw that you were going through the B-Class articles and rating some of them Related-importance. I'm not sure the algorithm you were using, but I assume that you were doing some combination of "B-Class articles of Unknown importance" and "Historic district contributing properties" or perhaps "nrhp_type=cp". Do take note that some articles that are in the CP category or that include that parameter are not really related-importance. There are individually listed contributing properties (INDCPs) as well, i.e. ones that are listed individually and also as a contributing property to a district. These articles should be rated at least low, and possibly mid, but definitely not related. I would say to skip articles that are in the INDCP category, and that would be enough, but not all of the INDCPs are in that category, so they have to be manually checked. I went through some of your edits and corrected a few errors, but my check was not thorough as I'm stressed for time at the moment. Perhaps you should run AWB again and see if some were incorrectly tagged? Sorry about the confusion. Thanks for the help, though!-- Dudemanfellabra ( talk) 00:25, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
When do you do it? Haha. Thanks to your endless chopping away, we are now above 40%! Thanks so so so so so so much haha. I've tried to do a bit today, but I can't sit on here for 24 hours straight as you apparently can haha. It took me nine months to get to about 30, but it only took you a few days to add an extra ten on that. That's insane, man! Go rest a while haha.-- Dudemanfellabra ( talk) 06:00, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
I see from your reversion that you must have noticed that I already added this to the NE Portland list. I've signed up to update the OR, ID, and WA NRHP lists weekly, so you shouldn't have to worry about those, but do ping me if I forget or screw something up. Cheers, Valfontis ( talk) 18:33, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
Some anonymous IP was adding a "Lake County Road 40" to the List of county roads in Lake County, Florida, which you fixed. Does that road really exist? Was Florida State Road 40 downgraded to a county road in Astor? Because I don't see it anywhere on the official Florida Lake County Road map( http://www.dot.state.fl.us/surveyingandmapping/geomap/Volu_c.pdf). Then again, they incorrectly list the southern terminus of Hernando County Road 493 as being Hexam Road on the official Florida Hernando County Road map, when it's actually at Florida State Road 50. Please tell me this is some kind of error. ---- DanTD ( talk) 01:38, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi Ebyabe ... No worries. My reply at WT:NRHP wasn't in response to your message. It was Smallbones who implied that I wasn't acting like an adult and it was that posting to which I was reacting. Sorry for any confusion.
On a completely different topic ... I've always wondered what your WP user name means. My guess is the letters might be a combination of initials. Care to share the etymology? Just wondering. -- sanfranman59 ( talk) 19:48, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

One problem I see coming up here is : "How to get up interest in a project without being too pushy?" (The way some other editors have been accused of in the past).
All the best,

Hi Ebyabe, I noticed that you have recently split the National Register of Historic Places listings in Georgia into a new structure than before. What alerted me to this was the appearance of National Register of Historic Places listings in Dougherty County, Georgia on the list of new articles in the NRHP project. I'm not sure why the rest of them haven't shown up on the list, but they could possibly show up after a future run of the bot. While I have no problems with the restructuring, I noticed that none of the lists you created for individual counties had the WP:NRHP banner on the talk page. While I'm still working on tagging and rating the importance of all articles in the project, the project's lists are all tagged/rated now (and if I'm not mistaken, you helped with the final push of getting them done?). I've gone through and added project banners/rated the new lists you created, but I wanted to bring it to your attention in case I have missed previous changes such as this or in case I miss future ones. It would be very helpful in terms of keeping good project statistics if any new restructurings would be announced on the project talk page, just to alert people of the change in case you or whoever is implementing the change forgets to add these banners or in case someone objects to the change. Thanks!-- Dudemanfellabra ( talk) 17:44, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
Hello Ebyabe! I hope you enjoy this cookie as an amicable greeting from a fellow Wikipedian, SwisterTwister talk 06:41, 29 August 2011 (UTC) |

For all your "Wonder"ful work keeping the NRHP lists updated. -- sanfranman59 ( talk) 21:01, 1 September 2011 (UTC) |
I don't disagree with rating Romeo Historic District mid-level importance--it's a large and diverse HD, after all--but be cautious if you're using the criteria of a site having an additional Michigan state designation. The Michigan Historic Sites list is fairly large, and I think bumping *all* Michigan state-listed sites up in importance will result in a top-heavy importance scale, particularly in certain counties.

You appear to be adding "needs-infobox=yes" to the talk pages of articles, particularly bridges, that already have an infobox...well, geobox, but an NRHP infobox wouldn't be needed for those anyways. See, [3], [4], and [5] for the most recent ones I noticed. Niagara Don't give up the ship 20:55, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
I saw that you were going through the B-Class articles and rating some of them Related-importance. I'm not sure the algorithm you were using, but I assume that you were doing some combination of "B-Class articles of Unknown importance" and "Historic district contributing properties" or perhaps "nrhp_type=cp". Do take note that some articles that are in the CP category or that include that parameter are not really related-importance. There are individually listed contributing properties (INDCPs) as well, i.e. ones that are listed individually and also as a contributing property to a district. These articles should be rated at least low, and possibly mid, but definitely not related. I would say to skip articles that are in the INDCP category, and that would be enough, but not all of the INDCPs are in that category, so they have to be manually checked. I went through some of your edits and corrected a few errors, but my check was not thorough as I'm stressed for time at the moment. Perhaps you should run AWB again and see if some were incorrectly tagged? Sorry about the confusion. Thanks for the help, though!-- Dudemanfellabra ( talk) 00:25, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
When do you do it? Haha. Thanks to your endless chopping away, we are now above 40%! Thanks so so so so so so much haha. I've tried to do a bit today, but I can't sit on here for 24 hours straight as you apparently can haha. It took me nine months to get to about 30, but it only took you a few days to add an extra ten on that. That's insane, man! Go rest a while haha.-- Dudemanfellabra ( talk) 06:00, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
I see from your reversion that you must have noticed that I already added this to the NE Portland list. I've signed up to update the OR, ID, and WA NRHP lists weekly, so you shouldn't have to worry about those, but do ping me if I forget or screw something up.

Some anonymous IP was adding a "Lake County Road 40" to the List of county roads in Lake County, Florida, which you fixed. Does that road really exist? Was Florida State Road 40 downgraded to a county road in Astor? Because I don't see it anywhere on the official Florida Lake County Road map( http://www.dot.state.fl.us/surveyingandmapping/geomap/Volu_c.pdf). Then again, they incorrectly list the southern terminus of Hernando County Road 493 as being Hexam Road on the official Florida Hernando County Road map, when it's actually at Florida State Road 50. Please tell me this is some kind of error. ---- DanTD ( talk) 01:38, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi Ebyabe ... No worries. My reply at WT:NRHP wasn't in response to your message. It was Smallbones who implied that I wasn't acting like an adult and it was that posting to which I was reacting. Sorry for any confusion.
On a completely different topic ... I've always wondered what your WP user name means. My guess is the letters might be a combination of initials. Care to share the etymology? Just wondering. -- sanfranman59 ( talk) 19:48, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
