I've noticed the following sentence appearing in a lot of the Washington history articles you've been writing (including those in your sandboxes):
“ | In 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the Interstate Highway Act into law. This elimated part of the U.S. Route system (including US 10) and encouraged Washington's Legislature to once again change the highway system. | ” |
The Interstate Highway Act did not eliminate any of the U.S. Route system. No U.S. highways were eliminated in Washington until 1967 (and those were portions of US 12 that had nothing to do with interstates). US 99 wasn't decommissioned until 1969, and US 10 not until sometime in the '70s. So the first part of that second system needs to be reworded – perhaps just that some U.S. Routes were deprecated when the Interstates were built? Also the second part, that the Interstates encouraged the legislature to change the highway system, needs a cite (or is possibly incorrect). It's entirely possible that the 1964 renumbering had nothing to do with the Interstates – after all, every state highway was renumbered, and most are very far away from interstates. Also, keep in mind that the DOT (not the legislature) renumbered highways first in 1964, the legislature changed the laws to match afterwards in 1970. -- Kéiryn ( talk) 06:24, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
I saw you were listed at WP:HAU, and that you indicated "images".
I'm looking for an experienced GIMP user. Or an experienced graphics designer willing to download and learn the GIMP (it's free, and its multi-layer file format makes collaborating on artwork easy).
Are you one?

Okay, well...
Hello yet again. I regretfully inform you that the bot we were using to update the user status at Wikipedia:Highly Active Users, SoxBot V, was blocked for its constant updating. With this bot out of operation, a patch is in the works. Until that patch is reviewed and accepted by the developers, some options have been presented to use as workarounds: 1) Qui monobook (not available in Internet Explorer); 2) User:Hersfold/StatusTemplate; 3) Manually updating User:StatusBot/Status/USERNAME; or 4) Not worry about it and wait for the patch to go through, which hopefully won't take long. If you have another method, you can use that, too. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Useight ( talk) 17:38, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
It appears the globe stand I was using as part of one of the awards I'm designing was from a copyrighted image.
This means we're back to square one.
We need to either find another globe stand, or come up with a new idea altogether for the "Wikipedia World Traveler" award.
I look forward to any ideas you might have.

Thanks for uploading
Image:Cars 2.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.
You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot ( talk) 05:11, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot ( talk) 12:20, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
Ltljltlj is away for a while. You need to wait for a certain time for now, and be patient. Do not rush to ask it on WP:USRD/S/R because they only want sheild is neccessairly like diamond white NC state shields missing, purple county route missing, or anything complcate. look at the pink category on that page, and you see that page is only for signs need.-- Freewayguy Discussions Show all changes 20:12, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
Don't WA still use state-name shields? I thought the state/specific is not okay in routebox, on your namespace or talkpages only. See interstate-guide map, WA is shade in black, and list on bottom of few state shields. Ar you sure WA still use state-name shields?-- Freewayguy Discussions Show all changes 00:16, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi! I have a request to a Korean native speaker and as you are very active in here, you can maybe help me. In the Korean article of German football club Eintracht Frankfurt (you maybe might know them due to Cha Bum-Kun and his son Du-Ri) in the introduction there is something written about Afghanistan. Could you have a look at this? And if don't mind could you translate the new player's names? Any help is very much appreciated by me!!! -Lemmy- ( talk) 11:25, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
