Beleive it or not... he did actually perform as a rapper in his younger days. Can't recall if his rapper name was Juggernaut or something else... in any event, that edit was uncited of course....but it might actually not have been outright vandalism.-- Dr who1975 ( talk) 03:26, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Hello, you recently edited template:Indiana. Now Clarksville, Indiana, the largest town in the state, is no longer showing in the list of largest towns. I'm not sure that it was your edit that did it, but I was hoping you might know how to fix it? I would try to fix it, but I would probably just make it worse. Thanks Charles Edward 00:03, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm not really going to bother with this, but look at the infobox. The list of tenants is so cluttered as to be nearly unusable, when only one or two really matters. Other stadiums generally list the sports teams that are there, major sporting events that occur regularly (bowl games), and the Super Bowl. By those criteria, only the Colts and the Super Bowl should stay. By the way, many of those same organizations and events also took place at the RCA Dome, and only the Colts and NCAA tournament are on that infobox. Charles 01:09, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Let me start by saying excellent work! This list could be at FLC tomorrow; you have certainly done a great job. But anyway, I am happy to help. For the skyline ranking, see User:Raime/Skyline rankings. It looks as though Tampa was just left off one part of the Indianapolis list's notes section. Cheers, Rai• me 04:23, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
The fixhtml tags need to be there; the infoboxes are causing the "[edit]" links to display incorrectly. 69.221.162.255 ( talk) 01:52, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
The Madame Walker Theatre Center needs a lot of work. Considering its a NHL with significant history (then again, that's why its a NHL), it needs more pics. I was rushed for time, which is why I onyl have oen shot of it, taken while driving through Indianapolis. If you want a place to take pictures of, that should be high priority. (I'm busy with too many other things to give it the attention it deserves).-- Bedford Pray 05:57, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
I like the excellent stuff you're putting up on Wikipedia. I would like to invite you to contribute also to Hoopedia. Hoopedia is a basketball wiki sponsored by the NBA. It's a lot more wide-open than Wikipedia, but also smaller. We're trying to change that. I have a particular interest in getting you to pay some attention to Hoopedia, since I am a transplanted Hoosier and the sections on Hoosier Hysteria need work!
Come take a look.

I'd like to use Susan Bayh as an DYK hook, but someone wonders if there is BLP concerns. I said I knew someone who would be good in correcting any concerns, and I was referring to you. If you could check it out, and would be cool. The hook consideration for Mrs. Bayh is in the July 22nd section.-- Bedford Pray 20:18, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Good morning TheHoosierState89,
First, thank you so much for putting Kasha's information on Wikipedia. I am Kasha's sister, Deidre and I have tried on 3 occasions to put the correct information on her on the wikipedia page you created for her and each time the correction was undone. Kasha was not born in Douglasville, Georgia, she was born in Bamberg, Germany. If you could make that correction, that would be great.
Thank you so much —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deereeves ( talk • contribs) 16:38, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
Good morning Mr.TheHoosierState89, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for your support of Kasha Terry and the way you've protected her on Wikipedia. My name is Hilda Terry and I'm Kasha's mother. I put the information about her on this site because it asked for well known people from Douglasville. Kasha was born in Neurenberg, Germany. She is a "Military Brat". As much as I (WE) love Douglasville, GA, she only attended Middle/High school there. I hope that Kasha had a chance to meet you, while she was in Indiana. Again, THANK YOU for protecting my DAUGHTER.

Dear HoosierState89,
The correct accent mark that needs to be used for Rasho's last name is ć and not č as Rasho is Serbian and is only born in Slovenia. Serbians use the letter ć but since Slovenians do not have this letter in their alphabet and only have the letter č, they use the latter. On the back of Rasho's jersey for the Slovenian national basketball team, the letter ć is used. I can find a picture if you'd like. The title of his wiki-article is misspelled. The title should be Radoslav Nesterović as Rasho is only his nickname. For example, the Stojaković article is Predrag Stojaković and not Peja Stojaković.
PS.
I hope I didn't annoy you with all these edits. Please get back to me ASAP.

Hi - you gave Incidents at Disney parks a "B" assessment recently. While I see that it's not quite GA status for various reasons that (should be) easily cleaned up, what are the specifics that you would look for? The "B" status states in part: it has significant gaps or missing elements or references - with 87 references and no FACT tags, I don't think this counts. needs substantial editing for English language usage and/or clarity - it's fairly clear from my point of view, but would appreciate suggestions. contains other policy problems such as copyright, NPOV or NOR - I'll admit there's still WP:BLP cleanup to do, but the article is fairly NPOV as it is. I'd say it's closer to "B-" than "B". Your suggestions appreciated. (the other Incidents articles? Well, they need some additional work later) 24.98.248.73 ( talk) 03:15, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

According to my records, you have nominated at least one article ( Super Bowl XLI) that includes a category at WP:CHIBOTCATS and that has been promoted to WP:FA, WP:FL or WP:GA. You are not signed up as an active member of WP:CHICAGO. If you consider yourself either an active or semi-active member of the project please sign up as such at Wikipedia:WikiProject Chicago/members. Also, if you are a member, be aware of Wikipedia:Meetup/Chicago 3 and be advised that the project is now trying to keep all the project's WP:PR, WP:FAC, WP:FAR, WP:GAR, WP:GAC WP:FLC, WP:FLRC, WP:FTC, WP:FPOC, WP:FPC, and WP:AFD discussion pages in one location at the new Wikipedia:WikiProject Chicago/Review page.

Thanks for the invite to Wikiproject Indianapolis. I'll definately join. I'm impressed with your interest in making articles about buildings. I'd like to do the same for all of the public art in Indianapolis. I wonder, though, if this should be its own wiki project or if this could fall in to the Indy one. What do you think?
Also, I'd like to do the same for the artworks in the state of Indiana ... but that's a huge job.
In the 1990s the Fed gov't sponsered a survey of many of the artworks in Indiana (Save Outdoor Sculpture!) http://www.heritagepreservation.org/Programs/Sos/index.html
Also, this book was published in 2005, which has lots of info about public artworks in Indiana: Greiff, Glory-June: "Remembrance, Faith & Fancy; Outdoor Public Sculpture in Indiana", page 261. Indiana Historical Society Press, 2005.
Thanks again -- Richard McCoy ( talk) 17:09, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
You were unable to create the pages because of the ... in the article name- something very similar happened yesterday. I have created the pages for you here and here.

I have granted rollback rights to your account; after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. :)
Also, have you run for adminship before? I think you do fine work here, and would like to know a bit more about you. We could certainly use your help in the admin corps! Would you be interested? Hope to hear back from you. :) Glass Cobra 19:05, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
