Hi Marcusmax,

Thanks for promoting this article to Aviation A Class. Its currently undergoing an FAC class review for WP:MIL. Can I request you to please let me know what it might be lacking to get an FAC ?

On a side note, Speaking of your long term projects, Chicago O'hare International airport happens to have O'hare wildcat on display. Or may be a replica. I'd love to see some pictures of it in the article. If you have any, would you be so kind to upload it ?

Happy new year ! Thanks Perseus71 (talk) 17:44, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice. Its appreciated. I am trying to incorporate their feedback as soon as It comes but its agonizing! Thankfully the A review for WP:AVIATION went quickly. I was afraid that B might have been held against the FA. Thanks all the same. As to the wildcat, I have seen its pictures in other places but those were not PD. I will try to get one if I ever pass through. Perseus71 (talk) 10:54, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi: I'm not conversant with the wiki, so here's my explanation on my reversion. Actually, Tyrone Willingham did not blame the smaller than usual recruiting classes for his loss to WSU. Two events got mixed up. There were two separate icidents where TW was asked why. One incident was after the WSU loss, the other was about his tenure at UW. My addition was regarding the second interview when he was asked about his record at UW and he said look at what he inherited when he came. It was therefore ironic because he left it worse than he came. And his explanation said nothing about recruiting classes. To say what is said now would not be correct and would not be factual. I can leave off the "ironic" comment, which is purely my own, but the fact remains that when asked about the low win/loss record, he blamed the situation that he inherited and that is purely factual. Thank you for listening.

Sorry, I don't know how to leave a message to you as you did to me.

Clearing, Chicago is not using a template. It is a longhand infobox as I understand it.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 03:24, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

I have updated my commentary. I do not think the longhand boxes are an issue. They can be left alone without harm. Gradually people can convert them. The problem is the pages that are using a template that they want to delete. We have to take care of those pages before deletion.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 03:34, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Hugh E. Rodham

May I ask why you added the {{cleanup}} tag to Hugh E. Rodham? The article looks generally okay to me. Wasted Time R (talk) 22:12, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

For an article this short and whose content is chronologically intertwined, I typically just add one "Biography" section, as I've done now. Is that sufficient to take the tag off? Wasted Time R (talk) 22:31, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

I replied to your comment at the AfD. Cirt (talk) 13:40, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

I have actually been thinking a lot about this AfD, I have read the arguments provided by you and others and at this time I have decided to change my opinion. I noticed that JJL injected Wikipedia:SCHOOL#Indicators_of_probable_notability, however this is not a policy of wikipedia, rather a failed proposal for a new sub policy of WP:N. And to answer your actual question, no I cannot find any reliable third party sources, and since I hate school articles anyway i guess I will change my opinion. -Marcusmax(speak) 22:47, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
Ah okay that sounds reasonable. Cirt (talk) 00:41, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
Apologies to trouble you, but just to let you know, after you changed to delete, JJL (talk · contribs) was good enough to present secondary sources on the AfD discussion page. I have changed myself to Keep. Cirt (talk) 11:33, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
