Hi! Just letting you know that I'm disappointed to see that you'd removed the page for Casey Pierro-Zabotel. I usually come to Wikipedia to find information about hockey players, and I wanted to brush up on something about Casey. He may be "non-notable" to you, but he isn't to me. I don't know much about how Wikipedia works but I want you to at least get some feedback. :)
Have a great day!

Re:SR-68
As it stands now, I would divide the "Overview" section and integrate it into the main prose. Yeah, it is better than it being in the lead but an Overview section is certainly unorthodox. However, I'm probably not the best guy to ask when it comes to this. Davemeistermoab is responsible for all three FAs that UTSH has so he'd probably have some better responses. Good luck with the FAC CL — 02:54, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, though I guess you can't really call me co-contributor since I haven't really done much to promote it to GA and A-classes. I'm on a sort of a wikibreak right now anyway, but if you still want I'll conom it when you put it up for FA. You should still ask Dave though, just to see what he thinks. CL — 03:08, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I guess so :) When you nom for FA, I'll pop by once in a while to fix the issues and I'll conom as well. Let's hope this passes - CL — 03:10, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
- Hey you asked me to look at SR-68. looks good, I gave you some feedback on IRC. My personal preference is to avoid "the highway passes by X then Y and then Z". I'd prefer to say, "the highway passes by Y which is notable because.... and was built in...," and not mention X and Z. IMO it makes for a better read. However, take that with a grain of salt, when I usually submit road articles for GAC or ACR or whatever, I'm constantly asked to expand the route description section, so I might be in the minority. But even if you disagree, I think you'll have a descent shot at FAC. =-) Dave (talk) 02:23, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Washington State Route 339
The article Washington State Route 339 you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . It hasn't failed because it's basically a good article, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Washington State Route 339 for things needed to be addressed. ~~ ĈĠ ☺ Simple? 00:25, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
Re: Washington State Route 339 GAR
Regarding the footnotes, that was a typo, I meant they're supposed to be after. Regarding prose, the writing is kinda choppy. And I don't understand what you mean that it's not a real road, and thus does not have a history. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 02:21, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Hello, I was just wondering what the tag you put on the page I primarily made meant? I'm still relatively new to wikipedia, so I don't know all the ins and outs yet.
Let me know ASAP so I can fix it; this is presuming that the tag is a negative thing of course. Thanks.
Rko202 (talk) 16:14, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
All right, I should have them all changed and the article renominated within three days or so. Thanks for explaining.
Rko202 (talk) 16:27, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
I finished replacing the unreliable sources today, actually. How obsessive compulsive I can be sometimes. Anyway, I'm renominating the article again for GA status. I'm awaiting a map from the task force, I put in a request two days ago.
Rko202 (talk) 03:05, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Do you perhaps have the time to create a spoken article on Pier Gerlofs Donia. To record it?

SR 103
Hi Admrboltz, I saw the note you left on the Utah State Route 103 FAC and I wanted to say that I am sorry if you are feeling a bit demoralized by the process. You had the misfortune to nominate this at a time when the FAC regulars are in a raging debate over what to do with very short articles. We're currently discussing whether there might be room for a new process which would assess articles under 1000 words (see Wikipedia_talk:FAC#Wikipedia:Excellent_short_articles). Please feel free to weigh in to that conversation. Karanacs (talk) 19:32, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, though I think I am going to stay away from FAC for the time being. Even after I withdrew the nomination, people still are bashing my work... I feel if I were to write more about 103, it wouldn't be focused, the route isn't even a quarter of a mile long... --Admrboltz (talk) 19:36, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- That's the downside of FAC - you're essentially inviting others to bash your hard work. Standards are high. You've done a lot of good work so far; some of the comments can help you improve the article, and others may not. Your article falls into a grey area at FAC right now, unfortunately. Karanacs (talk) 19:44, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- I had no issue with your oppose, I think you had the best reason to. There are no secondary sources for it. The one who asked who did the construction also works, the rest was "you can't write" or "your article sucks, its too short" or "you need a picture, cause I don't get it" or "I didn't even read it". --Admrboltz (talk) 19:47, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Randy Ruiz GA?
Hey there. I was wondering if you could help me promote this article above to WP:GA status. I don't have much to any experience with GAs since I'm more active with DYKs, so any help would be appreciated. I previously worked on Randy Ruiz before, but never got back to it, so I might as well do so now with some help. Thanks! -- RyRy (talk) 07:55, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
- Well, not yet. I'm not sure if it meets good article criteria yet, so I was hoping if you could look over the article and tell me a what you think of it and what needs fixing. This can be done on the article's talk page if you want. Oh, and I didn't think you'd be online, but I guess you were. :) -- RyRy (talk) 08:03, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
- I don't think WP:BASEBALL has any standards for GA. The other GAs that are related to baseball don't have a statistics box, so it's probably not needed, but it is optional. Anyway, I think we should just try to make the article meet WP:GA? first if we're going to try to promote it. -- RyRy (talk) 08:10, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
- Good idea! I'm just making a few copyedits first to the article. -- RyRy (talk) 08:18, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

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.

DYK
- I'm not sure what this is supposed to mean: "SR-101 was formed in the 1967 legislative session, but was not legally defined until 1969." The PDF shows that it was created in 1931; the transcription of the 1931 law can be seen at Wikipedia:WikiProject Utah State Highways/Early state roads: "(101) From Logan southerly via Hyrum to Wellsville." Then in 1969 it was realigned, absorbing former SR-242 (Hyrum to Hardware Ranch); the old route north of Hyrum became part of SR-165. --NE2 22:52, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
- Accd to the highway resolutions document the new route with the 101 number was approved in 67, but the first definition was was defined in 1969. --Admrboltz (talk) 23:58, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
- I don't see that anywhere. I see a blank line for 1967, which, as far as I can tell, simply means that UDOT was sloppy in compiling the document. Assuming that it means that the route was formed in 1967 (which doesn't even make sense, since if it was formed in the session, that means the legislature legally defined it) is both original research and, in this case, incorrect. --NE2 00:11, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, the "south" indicator wasn't necessary; you were right. I don't know why you omitted "north end of blah blah blah" because that is the northern end of the overlap, right?

Hello,
I will be able to do a route map for you for the Horizon Air destinations but if you could send me an updated map of all the routes/destinations they fly to that would be great. I also may have trouble because I am not fully familiar with some of the airport codes to the airports they fly to.

GA Sweeps invitation
Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am sending you this message since you are a member of the GA WikiProject. I would like to invite you to consider helping with the GA sweeps process. Sweeps helps to ensure that the oldest GAs still meet the criteria, and improve the quality of GAs overall. Unfortunately, last month only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process when 163 articles were reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.
We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the list, and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

FrontRunner N/S
Hey Ad, it's been a while. I've just been wondering how you know whether the FR Salt Lake-Ogden and Salt Lake-Provo lines will be separate. Shouldn't it be one single line going from Provo-Ogden with a stop at Salt Lake Central in the middle? That's what would make most sense, but look at what UTA's been doing lately (like truncating the Sandy line to Arena station). CL (T · C) — 23:16, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
- Alright, good enough for me. CL (T · C) — 23:23, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
- A separate train for a two-station connection - Oh dear... FrontRunner will become one huge inefficient white elephant soon. Ridership's the lowest it's been and you're right about Utah County. We're reluctant to dump our cars unfortunately. I went to a German city over the summer - now that's an efficient public transit system. It's full of light rail, tram, suburban railway and bus lines all over the city. Hopefully the Wasatch Front will get close, but with the way UTA handles it all, it'll remain a dream. However, the Sandy/University line is a great idea. Props to UTA for that - CL (T · C) — 00:09, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
- Ah... I did wonder why the Sandy thing was temporary. Now it's all clear. Hmm... in even the best of systems, transfers were necessary sometimes. But I agree that a Sandy/University line would be smarter than a Daybreak/University line. However, I guess they don't want Daybreak trains, West Valley trains, Sandy trains and University trains all on the same tracks in Downtown. In a sense, what they're doing is just logic. Maybe that's why they stopped Sandy trains at Arena, because of the Airport line. But it can't be that hard to coordinate three trains on a three-station stretch. Hmm CL (T · C) — 02:03, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
- Well then, I guess they really are trying to reserve that track to Central Station for University and West Valley! I have serious doubts of the line to the Airport however - perhaps it will be utilized from I-215 eastward to Downtown, but I can't see many people taking it to the Airport except tourists and employees.

- Ah... I did wonder why the Sandy thing was temporary. Now it's all clear. Hmm... in even the best of systems, transfers were necessary sometimes.

- A separate train for a two-station connection - Oh dear... FrontRunner will become one huge inefficient white elephant soon. Ridership's the lowest it's been and you're right about Utah County. We're reluctant to dump our cars unfortunately. I went to a German city over the summer - now that's an efficient public transit system. It's full of light rail, tram, suburban railway and bus lines all over the city. Hopefully the Wasatch Front will get close, but with the way UTA handles it all, it'll remain a dream. However, the Sandy/University line is a great idea. Props to UTA for that - CL (T · C) — 00:09, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Contest update
Well, it's just 1 day until the contest begins, so I thought I'd check in with everyone and make sure you're all ready to go. First I'd like everyone to check out the main contest page and read over the rules and the scoring system. If you have any final questions or concerns, make them known on the talk page. Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Contest/History/2009 is the scoreboard that will be updated, you can watchlist it. Check out Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Contest/Submissions which shows how your submission page should look. Another example is at Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Contest/Submissions Example, and your personal page should be listed at the footer of the page, which is also at Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Contest/Users. Again, take any questions to the contest talk page.
Good luck! - Trevor MacInnis contribs 20:54, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
tags
helo there! so most of your work is going around adding fact tags everywhere? why I absolutely agree the need for some of these tags, but some areas are just common sense and knowledge and your tag does nothing but put doubts in the validity of the content by an outside reader.--Samanthabee (talk) 22:38, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
BC Highway 1A
Highway 1A is still a provincial highway, but ends in Stanley Park in Vancouver. It used to run to Abbotsford before 2006. See [2] єmarsee • Speak up! 04:08, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
Yeah I can do that. Do you want me to do something to show where the border is? єmarsee • Speak up! 20:33, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
