Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or , and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome! -- I'm inserting this "welcome" before other stuff. At least you got a teahouse invitation before a notice of your work being nominated for deletion. Most new editors just get hammered with the deletion notices. :( Hang in there, it takes a little while to figure out how to survive here, but you're doing well and I hope you will keep up the good work! I'll "watchlist" here but please feel free to contact me at my Talk page any time. cheers, --doncram 01:55, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Nomination of List of 10 meter diving platforms in the United States for deletion
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5f/Ambox_warning_orange.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_orange.svg.png)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of 10 meter diving platforms in the United States is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of 10 meter diving platforms in the United States until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. The Banner talk 03:26, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- Follow-up: Yay, the decision was to "Keep" the article, congratulations! Hey, I am wondering out loud at the article's Talk page, though, whether it should be moved to a different title, perhaps something like List of facilities with 10-meter diving platforms. It would be great if you would comment there. --doncram 02:21, 23 January 2017 (UTC)
Coordinates
[edit]You've been adding coordinates for metropolitan areas. These are metropolitan areas, so adding a coordinate is pretty tricky. What source are you using to support your coordinates? Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 22:56, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- I agree this is tricky. I am using the coordinate of the namesake of the region (principal city (e.g. Houston for Greater Houston) or geographic feature (e.g. Puget Sound for Puget Sound region). I am open to using a different point if there is consensus on what that point should be. Unfortunately, metropolitan areas, similar to a city or county, are not one point.
