I award you this condign and well-deserved barnstar for all your outstanding contributions to the many Biography articles - Anas Salloum 17:20, 11 November 2006 (UTC) |
Especially on your amazing contributions to the Thaddeus S. C. Lowe article. Good job Mike! ↔ ANAS - Talk
You seem quite the authority on Thad! Thank you for your input to this article. Could you please add a publisher and date (or other source) on the Intrepid reference to your materials? BTW, if you use the "view preview" button (or paste text from a spell-checked word document), you can cut down on the number of minor cleanup "editions" that the saved history database keeps. ;-) Lupinelawyer 00:25, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your great work on Mount Lowe Railway! I made a few copyedits to the article but didn't change anything of substance that you wrote.
I also removed your signature. My apologies, but Wikipedia articles are always unsigned. Your name can be seen in the "History" tab, and anyone who runs a diff on the history will see what work you did.
Thanks again! Lawrence King 10:45, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
P.S. Some friends and I went hiking up in the Mount Lowe ruins around ten years ago -- some pretty cool stuff. Sadly, I'm now in the Bay Area instead of the Los Angeles area where I grew up....
I saw your note at Talk:Los Angeles, California/archive1. FYI, we generally do not post to archive pages, since, well, they're archived. If you have a comment it's better to post it to the current talk page so that more people will see it. Note that we also have a much longer treatment, History of Los Angeles, California. It'd be great if you could add your sourced material to it. Thanks, - Will Beback 07:18, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
FYI, we don't use titles, like "Professor", in the titles of articles. Cheers, - Will Beback 20:39, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi Magi Media. I noticed your comment on Movement to impeach George W. Bush and thought you might be interested to know that the article was previously nominated for deletion. You can see the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Movement to impeach George W. Bush and see why it was kept. I have not made many contributions to the article, and did not participate in the AfD, but I think that article takes a pretty NPOV on a real, notable and verifiable movement. Given the result of the AfD, it seems that the article is on Wikipedia for good. (No alternate meaning intended there.) btm talk 10:39, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
There's a question about the Mt. Lowe Railroad. the article says it " had the distinction of being the one and only electric traction (overhead electric trolley) railroad ever built." That seems implausible. Is there perhaps a word missing? Cheers, - Will Beback 02:49, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
I figured you'd just left out a word. Fascinating railroad, that's for sure. There are a few photos of it in the Library of Congress collection we could probably use if the Wikipedia article needs some more shots. Matthew Brown (Morven) ( T: C) 11:52, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
By all means, Magi! Sign yourself up to the military History wikiproject and the aviation task force! It's definitely relevant. Glad to have you on board. Cheers, Guapovia 14:47, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks again for your excellent contributions regrading the history and geopgrahy of the area. It occurs to me that you'd be an ideal person to write an article on Abbott Kinney. While he's best known for founding Venice of America, his work in creating the San Gabriel Timberland Reserve, and what became the National Forest system, is of even greater importance. A fascinating guy, his name is already in many articles with a red link. Any interest? Cheers, - Will Beback 21:28, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your improvements to the Arroyo Seco article. I was wondering if you have any sources or references for some of the information you added. Assuming you do, could you please add a "References" section to the article with the appropriate information? Thanks in advance. Mike Dillon 16:09, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
It would probably be best to propose the move on the discussion page for the Tongva article. I would assume that the tribe would prefer the name from their native language and that the recognized tribal name "Gabrielino/Tongva" is probably used because they were called "Gabrielino" in treaties or some other earlier form of recongition. Personally "Tongva" seems like a better name to me. Mike Dillon 04:44, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
Sorry to keep pruning your stuff, but you are putting disproportionately large amounts of details on peripheral matters into these battle articles. If we spend 2-3 paragraphs on the infantry actions, spending equal or greater space to details about Lowe and where his balloons were is not appropriate. The First Bull Run article should probably be twice as long as it is, but this is not the way to expand it. Long details about ACW ballooning in general can go into its own article, details about Lowe's exploits into his biography. Hal Jespersen 01:47, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for understanding. If you have any questions about editing how-to's, I'd be happy to help. You might check my little style guide for some tips on how I do things. If you have any lengthy requests, email to me is probably more efficient. And let me know if you'd like to have some editing help on your big balloon article; I have been holding off as it seems you're changing it frequently. Hal Jespersen 02:55, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the spiffy picture that you put into the "dirigible" article. However, since "dirigible" is an archaic term, the "dirigible" article is a disambiguation page that primarly directs people the article named after the more modern term -- airship. (See the Terminology section of airship for a complete discussion of the terms and their meanings.) I think you'll find that the "airship" article is fairly complete. I've also taking the liberty of moving the new image to the more appropriate non-rigid airship. Regards. Blimpguy 18:01, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
Hi there. Thanks for your comment about the notes I made on my cursory research of Benjamin Wilson. I guess I could have integrated some of the more verifiable material into the article, but I felt like the sum of my sources all seemed like hearsay. I couldn't actually point to a decent, consistent source, so I didn't add the stuff to the article. I remember reading that nobody has really done a biography of Wilson, so I figured the disparate source materials had not really been organized yet (beyond the Wilson papers collection at the Huntington).
Also, my understanding of the Don Benito thing was that to become a citizen of Mexico at the time, one had to swear to be a Catholic and take a Spanish first name. When Wilson went to what was then Mexico in the early 1840s and wanted to own land, he became a Mexican citizen and took the name Don Benito Wilson. I didn't keep track of where I read that, but it seems plausible. Pretty much anyone who owned land in the Mexican era was called "Don" (it comes from Latin dominus, "lord of the house"). Mike Dillon 03:52, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
Is this image fair use? I think I've seen it on the fan site, I'm not sure, but I'm not positive its public domain. I could be wrong though. Feedback would be appreciated, thanks! J. M. 07:39, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
Hve you read over History of Los Angeles, California? I saw you made a small edit. It's a big article, with many fine sections. But there's a gap- we have almost nothing about one of the most interesting periods of the area, 1913 - 1941. I know your allegiance is to another community, but we have to "write for the enemy" around here. Of course the article suffers from the difficult position of the primary city within a megalopolis- the question of how much of the history should be regional versus city-specific. While the L.A. city article should be strict, it makes sense for a history article to be more inclusive. Another odd factor in the article are the "special topics". Those are partly my creation, when I moved long stretches of text that didn't fit the chronology into those appendices. They seemed too important to the topic to delete or move to another article, although the arrangement is clumsy. If we can integrate more of it into the chronology that'd make it less separate. Anyway, any help you can contribute would be appreciated. Cheers, - Will Beback 08:35, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
Everybody likes your brother-in-law. He's especially popular with Griffith Park hikers like myself. Anyway, politicians of a different sort ran the city in the 1920s and 1930s. Mayor Shaw is a great subject. - Will Beback 20:20, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
"Commercial interests" sounds much better than "commercial avarice" - which, you have to agree, is going a little too far. :-) You said, though, that you weren't "making it up" - which is absolutely true, but you seemed to hint that you had a specific source behind you. Would you mind citing/quoting that source to make it stronger, if there is one? zafiroblue05 | Talk 06:20, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
Mike,
Love the historic Altadena map. I'm moving into Altadena this month, and I'm wondering if you know where I might be able to find a large print of that map to frame and hang in my house. dpotter 20:21, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Many thanks for your authoritative sorting out of Battle of Puebla. It was an excellent idea to include the legends, carefully segregated as such - with a bit of luck that will stop them creeping back into the main page. I fear, though, that this is a page that will always need vigilance, since the related Cinco de Mayo page is a constant resort of vandals. seglea 19:00, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
The headwater of the Arroyo Seco is Red Box, but I doubt that spot is worth having an article. As I recall, Robinson says that Switzer gained the moniker "Commodore" for his management of mules in stream crossings. Robinson also says that there was a sign along the trail near the camp from which hung a horn. The instructions said to use the horn to indicate how many guests were arriving, so that their dinner could be prepared. The chapel was a masterful illusion, from the photos I've seen. I can't recall the number of deaths on the sign, but it wasn't more than a dozen. Of course it's an old sign now, and the real number may be higher. Cheers, - Will Beback 02:40, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
67! Wow. I once saw S&R helicopters from the LA Sheriff's Dept either rescuing or practicing around Switzer's Falls. I was up in a ridge, and was very impressed to see the big choppers in that narrow canyon. As for the other camp, do you mean Oakwild(e)? - Will Beback 04:23, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
I noticed you are using some manual HTML markup to create footnotes in your balloon corps article. See WP:FN for a very nice method of managing footnotes. Although that page clearly states that the mechanism described is not mandatory, I think you will find that the overwhelming tendency in Wikipedia is to use it. (The format of the text in the footnotes themselves does not seem to have been standardized.) I have seen numerous discussions of reviews for featured article status that recommend it. If you would like to see some examples in a real article, try George B. McClellan or Battle of Shiloh. Hal Jespersen 15:19, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
You're welcome. My comments referred to the mechanical means of recording the notes, not to the style of usage. The correct term for the section here is Notes, but I usually used the term footnotes when I correspond with people so they know what I'm talking about. (I suppose Endnotes would be more technically accurate, but the recently emerging standard on Wikipedia seems to be Notes.) I use Notes for both in-line citations and additional explanations, as many book authors do.
You are free to document your articles in any way that you like, but let me point out a few things for your consideration. Wikipedia has a hierarchy of article assessments and if you ever hope to achieve the status of featured article or good article (which I personally do not care about, but many people seem to), you will need to provide many in-line citations or the nomination of your article will be summarily rejected. And the notion that an article is less valuable because you read it in a book goes against the Wikipedia philosophy of creating articles, which is to spurn original research and to create articles based on verifiable secondary sources. Hal Jespersen 15:11, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
You're welcome again. I don't take the article assessment process very seriously for the articles I write because I am really not too interested in the opinions of anonymous reviewers. (If one of the noted Civil War historians I respect wrote me an e-mail with criticisms of an article, I would snap to attention and fix it immediately.) You'll also find that the assessments underneath the GA level are rather arbitrary and unsupervised. However, having said that, I recognize that (1) many people are interested in achieving these milestones and (2) the criteria stated for the articles are actually quite good and improve the quality whether they get the badge or not.
Yes, by in-line citations I mean "footnoted" in a manner similar to a history book. When I first started in Wikipedia, it was not the custom to do this, which has resulted in hundreds of thousands of articles that are undocumented. Unlike a real, printed encyclopedia, we do not have the option of signing our names to articles, so there is no way for the reader to judge the quality of the opinions and the correctness or completeness of facts in the article. Therefore, we have to rely on citations. I have recently been using the following standards for my longer articles:
A very real practical value of doing this is that when future editors start to mess around with your article, you can rightfully insist that they use the same standard of documentation when they make modifications.
I think your article is a good one, but will pass along a few comments. According to the criteria for featured articles, your lead paragraph should be expanded to be three or four paragraphs in length and should effectively summarize the entire article. I probably would have called this article "Military Ballooning in the American Civil War" and included information about Confederate activities, which I understand were quite limited. (You could take a look at my recent article on Signal Corps in the American Civil War as an example.) And, of course, in-line citations. Good luck. Hal Jespersen 14:42, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
One more thought: I was involved in the elevation of William Tecumseh Sherman to featured article status and the guy who supervised the article for that had to do a lot of footnoting to get past the reviewers. It is a nicely done article and you could check that out as an example. Hal Jespersen 14:52, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
By the way, I hike up to Echo Mountain fairly often (and Mt. Lowe occasionally). Let me know if you want any additional pictures. You've done a great job of assembling old photos, which are more useful anyway. Still, I thought I'd offer just in case. Cheers, - Will Beback 19:07, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Mr. Manning,
First of all, please allow me to apologize for disturbing you, but I would like to ask you permissions to upload some images ( this and this) that you have creatd and that would be very nice for our Battle of Puebla article in the Spanish language wiki. This article needs a rework, and I think that it may be the time to include these images.

Hello again. I certainly have some books that I can add to the references on the LZ 129 Hindenburg article in general. I don't have a lot of energy to do much more work there. The controversies surrounding the silly "incendiary paint theory" just sucks the life out of the article. The constant nonsense added by the IPT proponents is very tiresome. I think that's the main reason that the article doesn't get better over time. Regards. Blimpguy 16:26, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi you were saying on the Hindenburg page that the "H on fire picture was pretty cheezy." I agree and I made that picture but anyway do you think people would like if I made a better picture of the hindenburg on fire? because that was one of the first picture I colorized but now I'm a little better at it-- Pediaguy16 19:00, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for contributing to the disneyland page; regarding my rv's of your additions: please be aware that we've been working to minimize this already long article and have moved much of the land/attraction information that you've been trying to add to the WP pages already devoted to those items. Adventureland, for example. SpikeJones 10:57, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
This article is already full of superfluous junk and is undergoing some pretty stiff criticism about its content which I think is holding it back from where it should be. Like those final lists: Disney in fiction, Disney in Music. And all that unreferenced stuff about the parks development in the 90s. My cursory parousal of this article leaves me wondering about the innovations Dusneyland has brought to theme park entertainment and which don't need to take up that much space
Hi,
You were the original editor of the page Mount Wilson Toll Road. It seems that a lot of the page has been copied from http://www.oldradio.com/archives/stations/LA/mtwilson2.htm which appears to be under copyright. -- IlyaHaykinson ( talk) 07:37, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
I am the original editor of the Mt. Wilson Toll Road as listed on Wikipedia. The story as it was submitted is the story I tell of the Mount Wilson Toll Road in any of my lectures on Altadena history or talk on the Mount Lowe Railway, another of my original edits. I have never heard of Old Radio.com nor of Benjamin's Mountain. If anyone is plagiarizing, they are. I find my Wikipedia articles all over tell-all web sites. And all those photos are from my collection of Altadena photos. I am a recognized Altadena historian, and that road is damned near in my back yard. It's story is somewhat relative to the story of the Mount Lowe Railway, and those accounts on WP are mine. They come from a myriad of historical tales in Altadena, some published, and some lore. I request that the original text be reinstated. Understanding that WP articles become a matter of public domain, I find it small wonder that irrefutable tales like mine might be lifted and copyrighted on another site. Thank you.-- Magi Media ( talk) 22:09, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
I am wondering where your photo of Devil's Gate Dam was taken. If you could please identify the location that would fantastic. I am specifically referring to this picture:
Samafito ( talk) 02:18, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for your interest in the photo. It was taken below the Woodbury/Arroyo roadway that crosses the dam's spillway. From the 210 freeway that passes by this very spot you can see all the sprayed stucco that was used to keep the waterway from eroding anymore. In the article look at the old photo that shows the same spot with the devil rock in its more primitive condition. Now imagine that's the area where the dam was built. This is a very early construct of an L.A. County flood control district that predates the post diluvial period of 1938. -- Magi Media ( talk) 04:29, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Please consider adding citation for each paragraph. Just a ref.../ref tag at the end of every paragraph, linking them to the book it is taken from, should be fine.

On February 25, 2009, the Wikipedia entry on "Indiana Colony" read as follows:
"Berry was a former teacher become journalist who also had a great interest in his brother-in-law's granary. He was also an asthmatic and the midwest weather went hard on him. He contacted Mr. Meyer J. Newmark who had recently purchased Rancho Santa Anita (Arcadia, Ca.) and was able to get pertinent information on the southland. Newmark even stopped by Indianapolis and gave a first-hand account of California to the Elliotts et al. From that meeting the Indianans formed "The California Colony of Indiana." It took little time to fill the limited roll of the organizations membership."
On May 28, 2009, the name was changed in the article from "Meyer J. Newmark" to "Harris Newmark" with the explanation that "Harris Newmark owned Rancho Santa Anita."
The sources for this article were listed as

This message was sent as a courtesy reminder to all active members of the Military History WikiProject.
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

Especially on your amazing contributions to the Thaddeus S. C. Lowe article. Good job Mike! ↔ ANAS - Talk
You seem quite the authority on Thad! Thank you for your input to this article. Could you please add a publisher and date (or other source) on the Intrepid reference to your materials? BTW, if you use the "view preview" button (or paste text from a spell-checked word document), you can cut down on the number of minor cleanup "editions" that the saved history database keeps. ;-) Lupinelawyer 00:25, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your great work on Mount Lowe Railway! I made a few copyedits to the article but didn't change anything of substance that you wrote.
I also removed your signature. My apologies, but Wikipedia articles are always unsigned. Your name can be seen in the "History" tab, and anyone who runs a diff on the history will see what work you did.
Thanks again! Lawrence King 10:45, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
P.S. Some friends and I went hiking up in the Mount Lowe ruins around ten years ago -- some pretty cool stuff. Sadly, I'm now in the Bay Area instead of the Los Angeles area where I grew up....
I saw your note at Talk:Los Angeles, California/archive1. FYI, we generally do not post to archive pages, since, well, they're archived. If you have a comment it's better to post it to the current talk page so that more people will see it. Note that we also have a much longer treatment, History of Los Angeles, California. It'd be great if you could add your sourced material to it. Thanks, - Will Beback 07:18, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi Magi Media. I noticed your comment on Movement to impeach George W. Bush and thought you might be interested to know that the article was previously nominated for deletion. You can see the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Movement to impeach George W. Bush and see why it was kept. I have not made many contributions to the article, and did not participate in the AfD, but I think that article takes a pretty NPOV on a real, notable and verifiable movement. Given the result of the AfD, it seems that the article is on Wikipedia for good. (No alternate meaning intended there.) btm talk 10:39, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
There's a question about the Mt. Lowe Railroad. the article says it " had the distinction of being the one and only electric traction (overhead electric trolley) railroad ever built." That seems implausible. Is there perhaps a word missing? Cheers, - Will Beback 02:49, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
I figured you'd just left out a word. Fascinating railroad, that's for sure. There are a few photos of it in the Library of Congress collection we could probably use if the Wikipedia article needs some more shots. Matthew Brown (Morven) ( T: C) 11:52, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
By all means, Magi! Sign yourself up to the military History wikiproject and the aviation task force! It's definitely relevant. Glad to have you on board. Cheers, Guapovia 14:47, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks again for your excellent contributions regrading the history and geopgrahy of the area. It occurs to me that you'd be an ideal person to write an article on Abbott Kinney. While he's best known for founding Venice of America, his work in creating the San Gabriel Timberland Reserve, and what became the National Forest system, is of even greater importance. A fascinating guy, his name is already in many articles with a red link. Any interest? Cheers, - Will Beback 21:28, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your improvements to the Arroyo Seco article. I was wondering if you have any sources or references for some of the information you added. Assuming you do, could you please add a "References" section to the article with the appropriate information? Thanks in advance. Mike Dillon 16:09, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
It would probably be best to propose the move on the discussion page for the Tongva article. I would assume that the tribe would prefer the name from their native language and that the recognized tribal name "Gabrielino/Tongva" is probably used because they were called "Gabrielino" in treaties or some other earlier form of recongition. Personally "Tongva" seems like a better name to me. Mike Dillon 04:44, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
Sorry to keep pruning your stuff, but you are putting disproportionately large amounts of details on peripheral matters into these battle articles. If we spend 2-3 paragraphs on the infantry actions, spending equal or greater space to details about Lowe and where his balloons were is not appropriate. The First Bull Run article should probably be twice as long as it is, but this is not the way to expand it. Long details about ACW ballooning in general can go into its own article, details about Lowe's exploits into his biography. Hal Jespersen 01:47, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for understanding. If you have any questions about editing how-to's, I'd be happy to help. You might check my little style guide for some tips on how I do things. If you have any lengthy requests, email to me is probably more efficient. And let me know if you'd like to have some editing help on your big balloon article; I have been holding off as it seems you're changing it frequently. Hal Jespersen 02:55, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the spiffy picture that you put into the "dirigible" article. However, since "dirigible" is an archaic term, the "dirigible" article is a disambiguation page that primarly directs people the article named after the more modern term -- airship. (See the Terminology section of airship for a complete discussion of the terms and their meanings.) I think you'll find that the "airship" article is fairly complete. I've also taking the liberty of moving the new image to the more appropriate non-rigid airship. Regards. Blimpguy 18:01, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
Hi there. Thanks for your comment about the notes I made on my cursory research of Benjamin Wilson. I guess I could have integrated some of the more verifiable material into the article, but I felt like the sum of my sources all seemed like hearsay. I couldn't actually point to a decent, consistent source, so I didn't add the stuff to the article. I remember reading that nobody has really done a biography of Wilson, so I figured the disparate source materials had not really been organized yet (beyond the Wilson papers collection at the Huntington).
Also, my understanding of the Don Benito thing was that to become a citizen of Mexico at the time, one had to swear to be a Catholic and take a Spanish first name. When Wilson went to what was then Mexico in the early 1840s and wanted to own land, he became a Mexican citizen and took the name Don Benito Wilson. I didn't keep track of where I read that, but it seems plausible. Pretty much anyone who owned land in the Mexican era was called "Don" (it comes from Latin dominus, "lord of the house"). Mike Dillon 03:52, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
Is this image fair use? I think I've seen it on the fan site, I'm not sure, but I'm not positive its public domain. I could be wrong though. Feedback would be appreciated, thanks! J. M. 07:39, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
Hve you read over History of Los Angeles, California? I saw you made a small edit. It's a big article, with many fine sections. But there's a gap- we have almost nothing about one of the most interesting periods of the area, 1913 - 1941. I know your allegiance is to another community, but we have to "write for the enemy" around here. Of course the article suffers from the difficult position of the primary city within a megalopolis- the question of how much of the history should be regional versus city-specific. While the L.A. city article should be strict, it makes sense for a history article to be more inclusive. Another odd factor in the article are the "special topics". Those are partly my creation, when I moved long stretches of text that didn't fit the chronology into those appendices. They seemed too important to the topic to delete or move to another article, although the arrangement is clumsy. If we can integrate more of it into the chronology that'd make it less separate. Anyway, any help you can contribute would be appreciated. Cheers, - Will Beback 08:35, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
Everybody likes your brother-in-law. He's especially popular with Griffith Park hikers like myself. Anyway, politicians of a different sort ran the city in the 1920s and 1930s. Mayor Shaw is a great subject. - Will Beback 20:20, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
"Commercial interests" sounds much better than "commercial avarice" - which, you have to agree, is going a little too far. :-) You said, though, that you weren't "making it up" - which is absolutely true, but you seemed to hint that you had a specific source behind you. Would you mind citing/quoting that source to make it stronger, if there is one? zafiroblue05 | Talk 06:20, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
Mike,
Love the historic Altadena map. I'm moving into Altadena this month, and I'm wondering if you know where I might be able to find a large print of that map to frame and hang in my house. dpotter 20:21, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Many thanks for your authoritative sorting out of Battle of Puebla. It was an excellent idea to include the legends, carefully segregated as such - with a bit of luck that will stop them creeping back into the main page. I fear, though, that this is a page that will always need vigilance, since the related Cinco de Mayo page is a constant resort of vandals. seglea 19:00, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
The headwater of the Arroyo Seco is Red Box, but I doubt that spot is worth having an article. As I recall, Robinson says that Switzer gained the moniker "Commodore" for his management of mules in stream crossings. Robinson also says that there was a sign along the trail near the camp from which hung a horn. The instructions said to use the horn to indicate how many guests were arriving, so that their dinner could be prepared. The chapel was a masterful illusion, from the photos I've seen. I can't recall the number of deaths on the sign, but it wasn't more than a dozen. Of course it's an old sign now, and the real number may be higher. Cheers, - Will Beback 02:40, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
67! Wow. I once saw S&R helicopters from the LA Sheriff's Dept either rescuing or practicing around Switzer's Falls. I was up in a ridge, and was very impressed to see the big choppers in that narrow canyon. As for the other camp, do you mean Oakwild(e)? - Will Beback 04:23, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
I noticed you are using some manual HTML markup to create footnotes in your balloon corps article. See WP:FN for a very nice method of managing footnotes. Although that page clearly states that the mechanism described is not mandatory, I think you will find that the overwhelming tendency in Wikipedia is to use it. (The format of the text in the footnotes themselves does not seem to have been standardized.) I have seen numerous discussions of reviews for featured article status that recommend it. If you would like to see some examples in a real article, try George B. McClellan or Battle of Shiloh. Hal Jespersen 15:19, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
You're welcome. My comments referred to the mechanical means of recording the notes, not to the style of usage. The correct term for the section here is Notes, but I usually used the term footnotes when I correspond with people so they know what I'm talking about. (I suppose Endnotes would be more technically accurate, but the recently emerging standard on Wikipedia seems to be Notes.) I use Notes for both in-line citations and additional explanations, as many book authors do.
You are free to document your articles in any way that you like, but let me point out a few things for your consideration. Wikipedia has a hierarchy of article assessments and if you ever hope to achieve the status of featured article or good article (which I personally do not care about, but many people seem to), you will need to provide many in-line citations or the nomination of your article will be summarily rejected. And the notion that an article is less valuable because you read it in a book goes against the Wikipedia philosophy of creating articles, which is to spurn original research and to create articles based on verifiable secondary sources. Hal Jespersen 15:11, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
You're welcome again. I don't take the article assessment process very seriously for the articles I write because I am really not too interested in the opinions of anonymous reviewers. (If one of the noted Civil War historians I respect wrote me an e-mail with criticisms of an article, I would snap to attention and fix it immediately.) You'll also find that the assessments underneath the GA level are rather arbitrary and unsupervised. However, having said that, I recognize that (1) many people are interested in achieving these milestones and (2) the criteria stated for the articles are actually quite good and improve the quality whether they get the badge or not.
Yes, by in-line citations I mean "footnoted" in a manner similar to a history book. When I first started in Wikipedia, it was not the custom to do this, which has resulted in hundreds of thousands of articles that are undocumented. Unlike a real, printed encyclopedia, we do not have the option of signing our names to articles, so there is no way for the reader to judge the quality of the opinions and the correctness or completeness of facts in the article. Therefore, we have to rely on citations. I have recently been using the following standards for my longer articles:
A very real practical value of doing this is that when future editors start to mess around with your article, you can rightfully insist that they use the same standard of documentation when they make modifications.
I think your article is a good one, but will pass along a few comments. According to the criteria for featured articles, your lead paragraph should be expanded to be three or four paragraphs in length and should effectively summarize the entire article. I probably would have called this article "Military Ballooning in the American Civil War" and included information about Confederate activities, which I understand were quite limited. (You could take a look at my recent article on Signal Corps in the American Civil War as an example.) And, of course, in-line citations. Good luck. Hal Jespersen 14:42, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
One more thought: I was involved in the elevation of William Tecumseh Sherman to featured article status and the guy who supervised the article for that had to do a lot of footnoting to get past the reviewers. It is a nicely done article and you could check that out as an example. Hal Jespersen 14:52, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
By the way, I hike up to Echo Mountain fairly often (and Mt. Lowe occasionally). Let me know if you want any additional pictures. You've done a great job of assembling old photos, which are more useful anyway. Still, I thought I'd offer just in case. Cheers, - Will Beback 19:07, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Mr. Manning,
First of all, please allow me to apologize for disturbing you, but I would like to ask you permissions to upload some images ( this and this) that you have creatd and that would be very nice for our Battle of Puebla article in the Spanish language wiki. This article needs a rework, and I think that it may be the time to include these images.

Hello again. I certainly have some books that I can add to the references on the LZ 129 Hindenburg article in general. I don't have a lot of energy to do much more work there. The controversies surrounding the silly "incendiary paint theory" just sucks the life out of the article. The constant nonsense added by the IPT proponents is very tiresome. I think that's the main reason that the article doesn't get better over time. Regards. Blimpguy 16:26, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi you were saying on the Hindenburg page that the "H on fire picture was pretty cheezy." I agree and I made that picture but anyway do you think people would like if I made a better picture of the hindenburg on fire? because that was one of the first picture I colorized but now I'm a little better at it-- Pediaguy16 19:00, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for contributing to the disneyland page; regarding my rv's of your additions: please be aware that we've been working to minimize this already long article and have moved much of the land/attraction information that you've been trying to add to the WP pages already devoted to those items. Adventureland, for example. SpikeJones 10:57, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
This article is already full of superfluous junk and is undergoing some pretty stiff criticism about its content which I think is holding it back from where it should be. Like those final lists: Disney in fiction, Disney in Music. And all that unreferenced stuff about the parks development in the 90s. My cursory parousal of this article leaves me wondering about the innovations Dusneyland has brought to theme park entertainment and which don't need to take up that much space
Hi,
You were the original editor of the page Mount Wilson Toll Road. It seems that a lot of the page has been copied from http://www.oldradio.com/archives/stations/LA/mtwilson2.htm which appears to be under copyright. -- IlyaHaykinson ( talk) 07:37, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
I am the original editor of the Mt. Wilson Toll Road as listed on Wikipedia. The story as it was submitted is the story I tell of the Mount Wilson Toll Road in any of my lectures on Altadena history or talk on the Mount Lowe Railway, another of my original edits. I have never heard of Old Radio.com nor of Benjamin's Mountain. If anyone is plagiarizing, they are. I find my Wikipedia articles all over tell-all web sites. And all those photos are from my collection of Altadena photos. I am a recognized Altadena historian, and that road is damned near in my back yard. It's story is somewhat relative to the story of the Mount Lowe Railway, and those accounts on WP are mine. They come from a myriad of historical tales in Altadena, some published, and some lore. I request that the original text be reinstated. Understanding that WP articles become a matter of public domain, I find it small wonder that irrefutable tales like mine might be lifted and copyrighted on another site. Thank you.-- Magi Media ( talk) 22:09, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
I am wondering where your photo of Devil's Gate Dam was taken. If you could please identify the location that would fantastic. I am specifically referring to this picture:
Samafito ( talk) 02:18, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for your interest in the photo. It was taken below the Woodbury/Arroyo roadway that crosses the dam's spillway. From the 210 freeway that passes by this very spot you can see all the sprayed stucco that was used to keep the waterway from eroding anymore. In the article look at the old photo that shows the same spot with the devil rock in its more primitive condition. Now imagine that's the area where the dam was built. This is a very early construct of an L.A. County flood control district that predates the post diluvial period of 1938. -- Magi Media ( talk) 04:29, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

On February 25, 2009, the Wikipedia entry on "Indiana Colony" read as follows:
"Berry was a former teacher become journalist who also had a great interest in his brother-in-law's granary. He was also an asthmatic and the midwest weather went hard on him. He contacted Mr. Meyer J. Newmark who had recently purchased Rancho Santa Anita (Arcadia, Ca.) and was able to get pertinent information on the southland. Newmark even stopped by Indianapolis and gave a first-hand account of California to the Elliotts et al. From that meeting the Indianans formed "The California Colony of Indiana." It took little time to fill the limited roll of the organizations membership."
On May 28, 2009, the name was changed in the article from "Meyer J. Newmark" to "Harris Newmark" with the explanation that "Harris Newmark owned Rancho Santa Anita."
The sources for this article were listed as
•. ^ Kyle, Dreams of the Pioneers, published by the Pasadena Museum of History, 1983. •. ^ McCloskey. 6 Horses and 10 Head, Boys' Club of Pasadena, 1971. •. ^ Hiram Reid, Pasadena, out of print, rare book, 1895.
Would it be possible for you to check to see if it was Meyer J or Harris Newmark who had the conversation with the Indiana Colonists and who exactly stopped by in Indianapolis to see them?

This message was sent as a courtesy reminder to all active members of the Military History WikiProject.
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{ non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too.
