Congratulations, Jamo2008, for recently making your 1,000th edit to articles on English Wikipedia!
Thank you for your diligence in updating statistics on sports and census data, and for all your contributions to the encyclopedia. Keep up the great work! Maryana (WMF) ( talk) 20:20, 14 June 2012 (UTC) |
Hey, thank you for all the census 2010 updates! I have a question, which I posted here to the people watching the Census project. I notice you are updating the demographics but leaving in the income paragraph, which is from the 2000 census. Before I started going through and fixing them I wondered if there was a fast way to add "According to the 2000 census" to the beginning of that paragraph, since right now it implies that data is from 2010. (It's important data and I wouldn't want Wikipedia to lose it.) Cheers, Antandrus (talk) 02:05, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

For taking on the repetitively fun task of updating US census data Dkriegls ( talk to me!) 16:29, 24 June 2012 (UTC) |
I note that you're changing the demographics numbers for Nebraska municipalities to reflect 2010 census data. Glad to see this being done.
Unfortunately, I think you're introducing errors in the course of your edits. You're substituting "city" for "village" in several of the cases I've checked. In Nebraska, a city and a village are two different things, depending on population; note this chapter of the Nebraska Revised Statutes going into the differences between them.
Could you change your procedure to avoid turning villages into cities on future edits, and correct the ones you've already changed? Thanks. Ammodramus ( talk) 03:31, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the quick fix on the city/village business. Ammodramus ( talk) 18:55, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

It was a mistake; I did not mean to delete the 2010 data. That being said, do not delete 2000 census data — consensus on the issue held that its removal was quite inappropriate. I was quite unaware that you had been performing mass deletions of 2000 census data and inexplicably changing the geography information away from what the cited source, {{GR|1}}, said. Feel free to use your script to add 2010 data, but do not delete information — especially when you cite no source for area changes. Nyttend ( talk) 14:32, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Jamo. Just curious about the adding of 2000 census data back to Ottumwa and Mount Sterling, Iowa (and maybe others). Maybe I've misunderstood, but in nearly all the city type Wiki's I've seen and worked on, the 2010 census data replaces the 2000 since it's an update. Just MHO but to have the 2000 data there too just seems a little like unneccessary clutter. Is there an established Wikipedia policy on this? Just wondering for my fund of knowledge. Much thanks, and have a great Wiki kinda day! Sector001 ( talk) 07:40, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
There's a note at Category:Towns in Missouri with an explanation and a link — basically, the legislature abolished the classification of "town" and redesignated each town as a village or a city. Unfortunately, the Census Bureau doesn't seem to have picked up on this fact yet. Thanks for the good work on the demographics! Nyttend ( talk) 19:31, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi! Thanks so much for adding the 2010 Census data to Gardiner, Maine. Do you have a bot or a way to add this to other pages? There are a few municipalities in the Gardiner, Maine area where someone tried adding the 2010 census data, but I question it's reliability. Foggynotion ( talk) 4:00, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
As to any edits bearing your user name, I did not "Revert", but instead undid. I did revert an unregistered IP, but AI assume that wasn't you. If it was you, you need to log in, and you might want to get an administrator to fix the showing of the IP address. I put back Michael Moore and put in references. I trust we are now in agreement. Happy holidays. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 18:38, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

Hello, The towns of Winthrop, Maine and Farmingdale, Maine look a bit questionable with the 2010 data. Specifically, the population data, which groups the age brackets differently than every other town, and doesn't appear to be 100% accurate. Could you take a look? Thanks! Foggynotion ( talk) 2:47, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Wow your User:JBradley Bot make edit in every city in many states. I saw West Virginia and Indiana is missing and old 2011 estimate. I have been to Alabama. You might edit in every city in Alabama in 2012 Estimate. Thank! -- Rossdegenstein ( talk) 14:22, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
Hey there sorry for the confusion as to which page I left a comment on. Specifically, the info box is of course accurate, HOWEVER, the article itself, the intro has the 2010 figure and so, you have an info box with a 2012 estimate and the article proper with a 2010 figure. I went ahead and adjusted the articles themselves to relfect the 2012 estimate. Good job by the way. A few of the WV counties still has data from 2000, that was fun. However, I was able to update those as well. Many thanks Coal town guy ( talk) 20:44, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
