and I hope that you are, can you help me with the new format of the Tennessee State Route articles? I am still trying to find out, among other things, who decided, apparently almost unilaterally, to go from the title fomat being, for instance, Tennessee State Route 4 to State Route 4 (Tennessee). The former is rather intuitive, at least to me, and the latter counterintuitive. I'll go over to the roads project and see if this is a Wikipedia-wide formatting decision and register my dislike there. Regards, Rlquall 13:46, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
Welcome back, even if only "on a limited basis". I understand it if you don't want to jump back into all the wiki activity you did before, but I do look forward to seeing your name around WP again! :) Grutness... wha? 08:02, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
Please follow WP:USSH and link to the "State Route x (Tennessee)" style. Thank you. -- NE2 05:08, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Per recent discussions, the way in which Persondata is viewed by Wikipedia editors has changed. In order to continue viewing Persondata in Wikipedia articles, please edit your user CSS file to display table.persondata rather than table.metadata. More specific instructions can be found on the Persondata page. -- ShakingSpirit talk on behalf of Kaldari 01:02, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
I have added a "{{
prod}}" template to the article
Bankhead, Dumfries and Galloway, suggesting that it be deleted according to the
proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "
What Wikipedia is not" and
Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on
its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the
proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the
speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to
Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. --

Please stop edit warring on that article. The State Route format is the official name to use in the lead—where disambiguation is not necessary. ( → zel zany - fish) 20:57, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Hello Fingers-of-Pyrex! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 942 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{ unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

I recently left a note on the Talk Page of the article you created on the now defunct Jefferson College (Jefferson Military Academy) in Mississippi. I'm pointing this out to you in the event you might have some input, which would be appreciated. Thanks much and best regards.
