2011, January Information

Hey cus, take a look at the talk page for Talk:Nashville_International_Airport. Thoughts on the top problem? nf utvol ( talk) 05:37, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

That was slick, whatever you did at Tanner's picture description. I keep seeing new things. Amazing when things just kind of go fast and someone randomly does something to help. P.s. There is a cleaned up version as well. P.s.s. I have the pic in for a FP (first time dealing with that, am no photographic expert, figured w.t.h. since I liked the pic since the tiger is sorta in your face.

Specifically Talk:Radio#Revisions_to_Amateur_Radio_section. Hoping you might contribute opinions regarding changes requested by a user. Thanks. - LuckyLouie ( talk) 20:03, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm done there for a while. - LuckyLouie ( talk) 23:14, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Huntster. After the initial article disruption, I tried to engage this user in discussion. After seeing his continuing disruption of the Talk page I withdrew. His bad behavior appears limited to only this article. - LuckyLouie ( talk) 16:40, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Well. Now there's some eccentric revisions at Amateur radio. - LuckyLouie ( talk) 20:31, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

2011, February Information

Sometime in the past you expressed an interest in getting WebCiteBOT running again or replaced. WebCiteBOT was a bot that submitted links to WebCitation.org in order to combat WP:LINKROT. I have recently started a WebCiteBOT Replacement Task Force to help coordinate an effort to do just that. I am cordially inviting you to express your opinion on the matter if you are interested. Thanks. - Hydroxonium ( H₃O⁺) 14:55, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Hunster, I have the video in the article, now. Can you please change the "start shot" for the video? The location on the sign doesn't mean much in the context of our article. Would like to have the 1:25 shot of the lady biologist holding a turtle. (Shows the topic of the video, and we have enough "turtle only" images all over the place. A human figure would draw people to watch the video.) See here: [1] P.s. Don't worry, if she looks tiny, I can make that 200px bigger, plenty of text around there.

what are your sources for your assertion that "dimple of the universe" refers to Middle Tenn. and not Nashville? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dougmac7 ( talk • contribs) 23:21, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

What? I have no idea what you are talking about. — Huntster ( t @ c) 01:26, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Greetings Huntster: You were a tremendous help educating me on uploading images. I have now uploaded a Wikimedia photograph with permission at Marc Culler. I must have done it right because it has been taken down yet. Thank you so much-- Foobarnix ( talk) 10:50, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Never a problem. Let me know if you need any more assistance. — Huntster ( t @ c) 18:58, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

2011, March Information

I understand an edit summary by you:

. Middle Tennessee State University‎; 00:08 . . (-24) . . Huntster (talk | contribs) (→External links: avoid using that template for anything other than the main website.)

to assert that there should be only one official site for an organization on an article page. I didn't find that direction at Template:Official website. If official guidance is to only allow one URL, shouldn't this be more explicitly stated in the template documentation especially the phrase "for labeling links to "official" websites" from which I infer that multiple URLs of an organization are acceptable since it uses the plural. Also the mobile option already provides a second website possibility.

Nor do I see any such direction in the comments about a proposed deletion at Wikipedia:Templates_for_deletion/Log/2009_August_13#Template:Official. The comments of User:Mrwojo at Template talk:Official website/doc#Don.27t agree with use of this template ""official flag" for a link" with the Google examples seem to imply that some in the community were assuming multiple URLs on a page.

The labeling of Sidelines as official was based on it being the MTSU supported (barely) student news organization, not a commercial venture focused on the University. I would assume the same logic would apply to WMTS-FM, the student run radio station.

Thanks, SBaker43 ( talk) 20:15, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Could you respond at Talk:Yuri Gagarin, about moving his full name out of the lead? Although many Russian biographies include it at the top, the featured articles suggest otherwise. Mlm42 ( talk) 16:42, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Still taking names and kickin ass I see. :) ... how goes it buddy? — Ched :  ?  19:13, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Sorry for the bad day(s) - hopefully you'll find that perfect spot soon. Yea .. gonna try to get back here a bit - but I see there's a bunch to catch up on. I can see I'm going to have to re-read through some old policy and guideline pages just to make sure I can edit properly. — Ched :  ?  22:20, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

You said that if I ever needed help re-acclimating after returning to Wikipedia, you'd help me. Well, I have been thinking about it, and I may want to return. —   scetoaux ( T| C) 02:37, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for saving " map of the United States" as among 600? reader requests per day for maps. The dead article " Wikiatlas" (failed WP:NOTE) had been fielding reader requests who asked for redirect " USA map" or " map of Germany" (etc.). However, long-term User:Dbachmann began killing those redirects, unaware how hundreds of readers expected them. I also reset redirect "USA map" as:

--  Re-redirected to the "Cartography of the United States" in
--  March 2011 (no longer to "Wikiatlas" from 2009) as being
--  another article addressing "map of" wherever, which for
--  "United States" or "USA", readers requested 155-730 per day
--  during late 2007-2009 (averaging over 370 times per day).
--  For "USA map" alone, daily requests averaged 90 per day,
--  reduced to 70 per day in 2011.

I have put a modern U.S. map in " Cartography of the United States" so that readers can find their map faster. Thanks again. - Wikid77 09:31, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

2011, April Information

Hey Scetoaux, I can see from stalking SoxRed's toolserver that you are a main contributor to the Civil Air Patrol article. I believe this article has graduated to a FA, and I would like your input. The only problem I see is one ^{citation needed} in the article. I'm Flightx52 and I approve this message 00:09, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

I disagree with the close decision at what is now Jonesborough Historic District#Requested move, but I am here to ask you to update your close statement to accurately state the number of participants actually taking a position. I added a supplement and SarekOfVulcan in this diff removed it. From the timing of your close, I am assuming you found your way to that article from the Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard#new issue: false proposals discussion, is that right? -- do ncr am 20:36, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

1) The mere fact that he made the proposal with zero negative connotations attached indicates at least some degree, if not a strong degree, of favour towards that position. Not to mention, whether it is three or four, this is completely inconsequential to the closing. 2) Yes. I never say anything at that board, but I do watch it occasionally. I saw the Tennessee mention and investigated. — Huntster ( t @ c) 20:43, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
