Formatting on Scout sign and salute

I thought I should explain myself; With the Refs list below the Portal and Commons, the portal and commons link line up in an attractive manner, as opposed to being pushed down (and pushing down the Navbox) as listing refs first would. Compare my edit to [1]. I know the MOS may say to list Refs first, but I think WP:IAR may apply here, since it improves readability and layout. Achowat (talk) 17:09, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Changed back to yours and added note. I like your setup better. If there were some of the longer technical references for the page that would get forced to 3 or 4 lines by being in a narrower reflist, then it might be worth changing back, but I don't expect that.

Catahoula Bulldog

Hi There. I spent a lot of time last night adding information and pictures on the Catahoula Bulldog. It was reverted the old version I guess I need more help with the codes for references. If I give you the information and references would you be so kind to add it for me? — Precedingunsigned comment added by Acrysmith (talk• contribs) 15:58, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I have references. Only one dog pictured is mine. The rest are all owned by different people and bred by different breeders. I got all of the info I added from research and I got the standard (explaining the three different types)from MBR. It is used by the merle bulldog registry for conformation shows and trials. I also submitted the standard to ARF (who is referenced in the current article). I would reference www.merlebulldogregistry.org. I tried my hardest to leave the template as it was when I added the information. I must have made some mistakes. I also left the pictures that were there and just added some. I wonder where the picture at the top came from. It definitely looks like a black mouth cur cross. Not a catahoula bulldog. I (and many others) feel like that is a bad misrepresentation of the breed. I made sure to make it a general description of the breed and not just post my opinions. I will do some studying up on wiki and try to figure out the codes and how to reference. Your help is appreciated. — Precedingunsigned comment added by Acrysmith (talk• contribs) 12:30, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of Alpha Phi Omega chapters (geographical)

The USPS address is simply an address for the delivery of mail. For almost my entire adult life I have had to deal with this ambiguity. The campus of UNLV is in Paradise which is where it really is located. The fact that the mailing address is different does not change where it is located. The county assessors web page will tell you where an address really is. This issue is why many infoboxes have and address and a location since two are not always the same. Vegaswikian (talk) 20:36, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting list and points. I did some cleanup on a few of those articles. The stadium infobox was interesting in that back in 2009 it was proposed that the location not say address etc. There was support for this and no opposition, so based on that I updated the documentation. The edit comment pointed out that location and address are different and if you want to put in an address, it should be a new parameter. I'll note that years ago addresses where viewed as a negative since it was commonly considered a violation ofWP:NOTTRAVEL. BTW, the medical school is located in the city.

Kappa Kappa Psi FAC

Hey, I know you're a very active editor within FRAT/SOROR, and I'm wondering if you'd be willing to reviewKappa Kappa Psi as part of its featured article nomination. Since I nominated it a couple of weeks ago, there hasn't been much in the way of comments and I figured you'd be a good person to turn to for comments.

I wanted to thank you for your comments on KKPsi's first FAC and ask if you'd be interested in again reviewing the page for its second FAC. The first one didn't get enough traction either in favor or explicitly opposing, so I got an exemption and re-nominated, and since there haven't been any comments in 5 days even with the notices on the relevant WikiProjects, I thought I'd seek some out.

Re: Georgia Tech Greek Life comments

Thanks for the comments.

I am very new to creating pages, so I don't know how to do a lot of things, such as the category.
I would really like to use a table, I just wasn't sure how. If you'd like to help me with that, I'd appreciate it immensely.
I didn't realize the the latin X and A were different characters (on a web page) than the greek ones.
We have many service and professional fraternities and sororities at Tech, but they are not members of Georgia Tech Greek Life. There are no councils for them, and this page was meant to portray social fraternities and sororities.
I will try to fix all of the things you mentioned. Thanks for your help!

Proposed deletion of Ceres (women's fraternity)

The article Ceres (women's fraternity) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable club with only 6 chapters nationwide. Fails WP:N and WP:ORG. No third party sources to establish notability.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. GrapedApe (talk) 11:39, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I tagged the article with a Wikipedia:Proposed deletion rather than an AFD because I thought that, with 6 chapters, there was at least a decent chance that notability could be established. I also saw that it was a recently created article, a proposed deletion seemed better than AFD. --GrapedApe (talk) 12:22, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Naraht, about a month ago, you mentioned on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mathematics that you thoughtParity of zero#Degrees of evenness sucked. Might I ask why?

RE: Fraternirty/Sorority user templates categories

Why is there a Category:Sorority and fraternity user templates and a Category:Fraternity and sorority templates?

In general, templates used in userspace should be kept separated from those in mainspace. If you've got examples of where they are combined, let me know. As for splitting it into Fraternity vs. Sorority for the user templates, if you want to do it, that's fine, the number of templates is high enough that it is reasonable.Naraht (talk) 19:26, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Alpha Phi Omega

Good for someone to be on top of it, at least. Thanks!

One thing I was thinking . . . I noticed that Google Books has magazines archived there as well (for example, the BSA's issues of Boys Life). Supposedly, if you own the copyright to a book or magazine, all you have to do is to send Google a copy of it, and they'll scan it and post it. Perhaps the National History & Archives Committee should explore the possibility of sending old copies of the T&T to Google for archiving? After all, if we can get google to scan everything in, why do we have to? WTF? (talk) 21:21, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Susquehanna River Basin Commission

Hi Naraht,

Earlier today, I removed the "Controversy" section from the Susquehanna River Basin Commission article because it was not factually correct and it also added a bias to the page. We believe the page has been vandalized.

Our general counsel contacted Wikipedia with this message on 12/06/12:

Recently, an article in Wiki about the Susquehanna River Basin Commission (SRBC) was edited by an individual who we believe has a grievance with the SRBC. The person is now promoting his edits on Facebook.

The SRBC is a federal-interstate compact commission formed by the states of New York, Pennsylvania and Maryland, and the U.S. Government, to manage the water resources of the Susquehanna River Basin. As such, the Commission exercises governmental powers bestowed on it jointly by the four member jurisdictions to protect water resources and users of water resources .

The new content (example: “Riverdale Mobile Home Park”) lacks objectivity, attempts to create a bias against the Commission, and is factually skewed to one Commission project action without regard to over 1,000 other project actions that SRBC has issued. This just isn’t what an encyclopedic reference is suppose to do and it reflects badly, not only on the SRBC, but also on the reputation of Wikapedia as a trustworthy source of information. It further distorts and places in a false light the work of a government agency charged with official responsibilities under state and federal law.

Several months ago, the same individual created a fake Facebook page for the SRBC. We were able to contact Facebook and have it removed. For similar reasons, we’d now like to know what course of action we can take to remove the biased content of this Wiki entry, and protect the article from future changes that seek to create bias instead of promoting objectivity. We believe that it is in both your interest and the interest of SRBC to insure that unbiased, reliable and objective information about SRBC appears on your Wiki pages. Please be in contact with me at your earliest convenience to discuss the actions that we can pursue to rectify this situation.

We would like the "Controversy" section to be removed.

Maybe I can use template coding/magic words to only apply the category in the right namespace. I'll look into that. Cheers,Ocaasi^{t | c} 16:33, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There must be some solution. For example, userboxes add a category when on a userpage but are also displayed in WP space. Ocaasi^{t | c} 22:46, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This seems quite relevant: Wikipedia:Category_suppression. 22:52, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Ah, I see... the issue is Category Badges. I'll change it to Wikipedia Badges. No problem and good catch!Ocaasi^{t | c} 00:33, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Just FYI, Category:Badges hasn't updated to the changes yet, but if you check any of the offending pages you'll see that at the bottom they're no longer in the Badges category. It might take a day to refresh the category page. Cheers, Ocaasi^{t | c} 02:18, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Am I missing something?

edit cited a prohibition on using such templates in userspace, but the page being edited was not in userspace. Am I missing something or was this a mistake? Nikkimaria (talk) 20:56, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
