The article
Bay Freeway (Seattle) you nominated as a

Fuck it, do whatever you want. I don't care. But you seem to ignore the fact that the Sounders DID NOT play at CenturyLink in 2008 but rather at Starfire. http://web.archive.org/web/20080530023154/http://seattlesounders.com/gameschedule.php
1. By that logic, Rangers FC was founded in 2012 instead of 1872 and that page should be edited as well. 2. I barely know how Wikipedia works. - Crusty4545
How does that matter? The current New York Cosmos considers them a continuation of the former franchise. All they did was acquire the name from Pepe Pinton. Same can be said about the San Diego Sockers and the North American Soccer League. They haven't inherit anything but their name from the only franchises/league. Both Rangers and promoted MLS franchises have the same makeup and inherited players, coaches, owners, etc from the "previous franchises." And why would MLS reconigize their history pre-MLS if it has nothing to do with their league? Doesn't mean it's not a continuation of the franchise, it just means there's no relevance between the franchise's stint in the USL/NASL and MLS in general. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Crusty4545 ( talk • contribs) 02:35, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
Agree, brand reconigtion=more revenue. But the current Rangers FC is seperate ( http://imgur.com/NwFmH1t) from the "former" Rangers. Founded on 5/29/2012. If the Sounders are a new franchise, so should Rangers. Therefore their page should be edited as well.
Hello SounderBruce, you corrected my dates in above. Now you find others between text and infobox. Regards -- Sweepy ( talk) 18:24, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

Does Sound Transit rename the segments when they come online, or will it be East Link Extension forever? Thought you might know. Brianhe ( talk) 23:23, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
And not even a note? Not any explanation at all? Why the fuck would you do that?? That's a super-great way to keep people contributing, don't you think? This is the SECOND time this has happened, and like I made perfectly clear the first time, if you had thought for one fucking second to look, these images are my husband's work. I'm uploading them with his explicit permission. We even changed the license on his website, of which I am the administrator (you didn't check that either did you??) to be compatible with wikimedia commons because the last asshole didn't believe me either.
I don't know how to fix this. It's a lot easier to do damage than to upload good content. You have done the damage and it is on you to fix it. Or perhaps I shall start deleting your work too?
Fix it now! Nate Wessel ( talk) 11:20, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
Here is further evidence that this deletion was unwarranted. /info/en/?search=User_talk:Nate_Wessel#July_2015 I repeat my insistence that this change be reverted. I would also like to suggest that this user should have his ability to delete images revoked, as I think he has clearly abused the privilege by failing to do any research whatsoever before deleting and by failing to contact me first.

Hey SounderBruce, its Quidster4040 from reddit. I'm thinking of working on the article that was the first ever MLS match.
I'm guessing an apt title would be "San Jose Clash v D.C. United (April 1996)"? Quidster4040 ( talk) 20:13, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
Hey SounderBruce, do you know if the new 520 bridge has a name? I'd like to update the Evergreen Point Floating Bridge article. We'll have to rejigger the lede to distinguish the Rosselini Memorial Bridge from the new bridge. As you've probably noticed it's nearly complete now. I took some shots from the air last week File:New 520 bridge August 2015 01.jpg and File:New 520 bridge August 2015 02.jpg (and a few more I didn't upload). — Brianhe ( talk) 00:09, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
Front Office is located in Missouri
http://www.sportingkc.com/contact-us
Sporting Kansas City (formerly Kansas City Wizards) from Kansas City, Missouri is one of the ten founding clubs of Major League Soccer. They are currently and have always been a Missouri team. Kansas does not have a major professional sports team, much less an MLS team. Sporting built a new stadium in Kansas City, Kansas in 2011 but has never changed locations. It is misleading to have Sporting Kansas City listed with a Kansas location. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jkeiltaylor ( talk • contribs) 20:45, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

The information was inaccurate stating the fire was not the largest in state history. By definition a "complex" is multiple fires in the same area. They do not need to merge to be considered "one" fire by the incident commander, the State of Washington and the Federal Government.

I know you removed the information from that article from me and another editor, and I do not take offense to that personally. My only issue is that the information has made national news (that is how I heard of it in Arizona from multiple news alerts on my phone), and has a lot of citations out there. I also assume that you meant to cite this page instead of the one you cited, as the other one just leads to a general disambiguation page. Anyways, there is a difference between a fatal (and unfortunately, routine) car accident on a bridge, and one that makes national news, especially since it appears that exchange students were involved. We could easily create tallies for bridge deaths if we wanted, but it would not make sense. At the same time, this is an event where the national press covered it, so there is clearly something going on here that warrants greater attention. I could understand how a regular death would not be worth mentioning, but this tragedy has so far killed twice as many as the bus incident right above it, and that one has been on the page for years. I am more than willing to add more citations though, as I am not comfortable keeping this information off the page as it stands right now. Finally, I do appreciate the fixing of that bus route though, as I misread that and did not catch the mistake until you caught that, so thanks for fixing that. Kevin Rutherford ( talk) 05:30, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
Listen Sounder Bruce. That is not repetition, all other MLS clubs have a year by year record and I place time and effort to make sure Seattle has one on their page as well. No one else says that is repetition and that Is frustrating when anyone says that and takes it off with ridiculous assumptions. It is for others to see their accomplishments on the page.

With five or six East Links thruout the world, there is no reason to believe that Seattle's is more important than the others. East Link (Sound transit) is the non-ambiguous link. I redirected East Link to the disambiguation page, since the difference between a space and a hyphen isn't enough to make the name unambiguous. You'll notice that the links all display as East Link - meaning that East Link appears on the screen for the reader. Oiyarbepsy ( talk) 04:06, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

I feel there's a good argument for our Link station being "Westlake station" on Wikipeda. The disambiguation page lists "Westlake / MacArthur Park" in Los Angeles and "West Lake" in Atlanta. So our station is the only "Westlake". Thoughts? -- RickyCourtney ( talk) 23:21, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

Hello SounderBruce, I need your advice.
Over the past 40-some years, the Washington State Department of Transportation has published hundreds of research reports, you can see the list here: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Research/Reports/
Most of the research is done by third parties, often universities. We would like to make these reports available through Wikipedia since it is so widely used.
However, is it a violation of the "No original research" tenet to write an article on the subject of a report and then cite that report? For example an article on Compost Leachates (one does not currently exist) and refer back to this report?
Experimental Evaluation of Compost Leachates. Abtract: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Research/Reports/800/848.1.htm Full text: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/research/reports/fullreports/848.1.pdf

You just posted Linkrot on both Mike O'Brien (Seattle politician) and Ventura County Line. I have contributed to neither of those are articles, though I clearly believe in link rot as I discuss in my user page. So its not my "laziness" you are complaining about. But I will complain about your laziness. If you read the link rot tag you just defaced those articles with, it tells you how to use refill. Instead of leaving that obnoxious tag on the top, if you are so concerned about link rot, do something about it. Just push the button and wait. Then you have fixed the "problem" you detected, you can be satisfied and you don't bother someone else to clean up the mess you left. That would be doing wikipedia some good. The average reader sees stuff like that tag on the top of the article and thinks there is something wrong. It hurts the overall credibility of wikipedia. I clearly don't believe there is anything wrong with the link rot in the first place but needless tags bother me. That's the problem I'm trying to solve by talking to you. You are the one bothered by by the link rot. As an experienced editor, if you care, when you see a problem you should also fix it, rather than leaving a tag announcing your single opinion that there is something wrong with the article to the entire world.

Fuck it, do whatever you want. I don't care. But you seem to ignore the fact that the Sounders DID NOT play at CenturyLink in 2008 but rather at Starfire. http://web.archive.org/web/20080530023154/http://seattlesounders.com/gameschedule.php
1. By that logic, Rangers FC was founded in 2012 instead of 1872 and that page should be edited as well. 2. I barely know how Wikipedia works. - Crusty4545
How does that matter? The current New York Cosmos considers them a continuation of the former franchise. All they did was acquire the name from Pepe Pinton. Same can be said about the San Diego Sockers and the North American Soccer League. They haven't inherit anything but their name from the only franchises/league. Both Rangers and promoted MLS franchises have the same makeup and inherited players, coaches, owners, etc from the "previous franchises." And why would MLS reconigize their history pre-MLS if it has nothing to do with their league? Doesn't mean it's not a continuation of the franchise, it just means there's no relevance between the franchise's stint in the USL/NASL and MLS in general. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Crusty4545 ( talk • contribs) 02:35, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
Agree, brand reconigtion=more revenue. But the current Rangers FC is seperate ( http://imgur.com/NwFmH1t) from the "former" Rangers. Founded on 5/29/2012. If the Sounders are a new franchise, so should Rangers. Therefore their page should be edited as well.
Hello SounderBruce, you corrected my dates in above. Now you find others between text and infobox. Regards -- Sweepy ( talk) 18:24, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

Does Sound Transit rename the segments when they come online, or will it be East Link Extension forever? Thought you might know. Brianhe ( talk) 23:23, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
And not even a note? Not any explanation at all? Why the fuck would you do that?? That's a super-great way to keep people contributing, don't you think? This is the SECOND time this has happened, and like I made perfectly clear the first time, if you had thought for one fucking second to look, these images are my husband's work. I'm uploading them with his explicit permission. We even changed the license on his website, of which I am the administrator (you didn't check that either did you??) to be compatible with wikimedia commons because the last asshole didn't believe me either.
I don't know how to fix this. It's a lot easier to do damage than to upload good content. You have done the damage and it is on you to fix it. Or perhaps I shall start deleting your work too?
Fix it now! Nate Wessel ( talk) 11:20, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
Here is further evidence that this deletion was unwarranted. /info/en/?search=User_talk:Nate_Wessel#July_2015 I repeat my insistence that this change be reverted. I would also like to suggest that this user should have his ability to delete images revoked, as I think he has clearly abused the privilege by failing to do any research whatsoever before deleting and by failing to contact me first.

Hey SounderBruce, its Quidster4040 from reddit. I'm thinking of working on the article that was the first ever MLS match.

Hey SounderBruce, do you know if the new 520 bridge has a name? I'd like to update the Evergreen Point Floating Bridge article. We'll have to rejigger the lede to distinguish the Rosselini Memorial Bridge from the new bridge. As you've probably noticed it's nearly complete now. I took some shots from the air last week File:New 520 bridge August 2015 01.jpg and File:New 520 bridge August 2015 02.jpg (and a few more I didn't upload). — Brianhe ( talk) 00:09, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
Front Office is located in Missouri
http://www.sportingkc.com/contact-us
Sporting Kansas City (formerly Kansas City Wizards) from Kansas City, Missouri is one of the ten founding clubs of Major League Soccer. They are currently and have always been a Missouri team. Kansas does not have a major professional sports team, much less an MLS team. Sporting built a new stadium in Kansas City, Kansas in 2011 but has never changed locations. It is misleading to have Sporting Kansas City listed with a Kansas location. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jkeiltaylor ( talk • contribs) 20:45, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

The information was inaccurate stating the fire was not the largest in state history. By definition a "complex" is multiple fires in the same area. They do not need to merge to be considered "one" fire by the incident commander, the State of Washington and the Federal Government.

I know you removed the information from that article from me and another editor, and I do not take offense to that personally. My only issue is that the information has made national news (that is how I heard of it in Arizona from multiple news alerts on my phone), and has a lot of citations out there. I also assume that you meant to cite this page instead of the one you cited, as the other one just leads to a general disambiguation page. Anyways, there is a difference between a fatal (and unfortunately, routine) car accident on a bridge, and one that makes national news, especially since it appears that exchange students were involved. We could easily create tallies for bridge deaths if we wanted, but it would not make sense. At the same time, this is an event where the national press covered it, so there is clearly something going on here that warrants greater attention. I could understand how a regular death would not be worth mentioning, but this tragedy has so far killed twice as many as the bus incident right above it, and that one has been on the page for years. I am more than willing to add more citations though, as I am not comfortable keeping this information off the page as it stands right now. Finally, I do appreciate the fixing of that bus route though, as I misread that and did not catch the mistake until you caught that, so thanks for fixing that. Kevin Rutherford ( talk) 05:30, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
Listen Sounder Bruce. That is not repetition, all other MLS clubs have a year by year record and I place time and effort to make sure Seattle has one on their page as well. No one else says that is repetition and that Is frustrating when anyone says that and takes it off with ridiculous assumptions. It is for others to see their accomplishments on the page.

With five or six East Links thruout the world, there is no reason to believe that Seattle's is more important than the others. East Link (Sound transit) is the non-ambiguous link. I redirected East Link to the disambiguation page, since the difference between a space and a hyphen isn't enough to make the name unambiguous. You'll notice that the links all display as East Link - meaning that East Link appears on the screen for the reader. Oiyarbepsy ( talk) 04:06, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

Hello SounderBruce, I need your advice.
Over the past 40-some years, the Washington State Department of Transportation has published hundreds of research reports, you can see the list here: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Research/Reports/
Most of the research is done by third parties, often universities. We would like to make these reports available through Wikipedia since it is so widely used.
However, is it a violation of the "No original research" tenet to write an article on the subject of a report and then cite that report? For example an article on Compost Leachates (one does not currently exist) and refer back to this report?
Experimental Evaluation of Compost Leachates. Abtract: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Research/Reports/800/848.1.htm Full text: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/research/reports/fullreports/848.1.pdf

You just posted Linkrot on both Mike O'Brien (Seattle politician) and Ventura County Line. I have contributed to neither of those are articles, though I clearly believe in link rot as I discuss in my user page. So its not my "laziness" you are complaining about. But I will complain about your laziness. If you read the link rot tag you just defaced those articles with, it tells you how to use refill. Instead of leaving that obnoxious tag on the top, if you are so concerned about link rot, do something about it. Just push the button and wait. Then you have fixed the "problem" you detected, you can be satisfied and you don't bother someone else to clean up the mess you left. That would be doing wikipedia some good. The average reader sees stuff like that tag on the top of the article and thinks there is something wrong. It hurts the overall credibility of wikipedia. I clearly don't believe there is anything wrong with the link rot in the first place but needless tags bother me. That's the problem I'm trying to solve by talking to you. You are the one bothered by by the link rot. As an experienced editor, if you care, when you see a problem you should also fix it, rather than leaving a tag announcing your single opinion that there is something wrong with the article to the entire world.
