Wiki Project Architecture

edit

Hi Cygnusloop99! I am trying to revive this WikiProject which appears to have went half-dormant in the past year. I figured that you recently registered as participant. After more than a month of efforts to update the Portal and WikiProject pages there are now finally a couple of things going on again such as Selected article candidate Akshardham (Delhi), Peer review of Architecture of Bangladesh, or Featured picture candidate Auditorio de Tenerife. Your input and critique would be helpful to get a bit of activity on this project. cheers. Elekhh (talk) 00:02, 6 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hotel infoboxes

edit

The location is where the place is located. It is not the mailing address. The USPS is not a source for the location as they do not provide an accurate source for where a place is really located. By adding links to articles that do not cover the building you are not adding correct information. Vegaswikian (talk) 19:56, 29 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

The addresses on the websites are generally the USPS address in the US. If you really want to find out what the location is do check the local assessors web site they will tell you where the building is located. Vegaswikian (talk) 19:14, 30 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Frank G buildings

edit

I noticed that you support spinning off the building section of the Frank Gehry. I have started work on List of Frank Gehry buildings in my User:Oldag07/Sandbox. It would be greatly appreciated if you could help edit it before it is public. I think I will put it up sometime this Saturday. Thanks. Oldag07 (talk) 05:58, 10 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for providing the newest photos for the Vegas hotels, it improves the articles and even helps our economy here if visitors know what some of the newly built hotel buildings here look like. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.216.14.1 (talk) 20:12, 10 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

PHX Edits

Yeah I noticed that. All of their edits were in the airlines and destinations section. I went through though and couldn't find any incorrect information. They could have very well realized they were wrong and changed it. Thanks! ZHoover123 17:07, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion for WikiProject United States to support WikiProjeck Arizona

edit

It was recently suggested that WikiProject Arizona, to which you are a member, may be inactive or semiactive and it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States. After reviewing the project it appears that there haven't been muchany active discussion on the talk page in some time and the only content updates appear to be simple maintenance so being supported by a larger project might be beneficial. I have begun a discussion on the projects talk page to see how the members of the project feel about this suggestion. Another user has added the project to the WPUS template and I added it to the list of supported projects in the WPUS main project page but before I take any further action I wanted to contact each of the active members for their input. --Kumioko (talk) 13:28, 7 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Highland High School (Gilbert, Arizona)

edit

Hi! My name is Raymie. I edit articles on Arizona schools.

I want to explain an edit I made to something you edited recently at Highland High School (Gilbert, Arizona). You wrote "5A" as the AIA conference alignment.

However, there is now a split between sports alignments (for determining who plays in what division; e.g. Sunnyslope is Division II in football) and internal AIA usage (for instance, regions now only exist in the sense of committees of athletic directors, though they do have the same names but some different sets of schools). It gets more confusing because the alignments are modularized. (Saying Seton Catholic is Division IV only applies to football; it competes in Division II in basketball, in Division I in boys' volleyball and in Division III in girls' volleyball.) It's misleading on many levels. I prefer to insert conference, which provides a reliable clue on enrollment and size but doesn't include competitive equity, number of divisions (boys' volleyball has one division, basketball has four, and football has six), or other factors.

For a reference of where schools are and in what conference, the AIA has a good resource in its Conference Region Alignment page on their website. Also selecting the school in the Member School Directory on the AIA site will yield not only a conference-region breakdown but division and section by sport breakdown.

What you reverted was correct in stating that Highland competes in Division I in all sports: just take a look. However the wording isn't particularly well done. Raymie (tc) 19:03, 20 July 2012 (UTC)Reply


This is actually a template of sorts I whipped up — this is the third time I've had to use it (once at Chandler Preparatory Academy and once more at Sunnyslope). It's located at User:Raymie/Alignment if you ever need to use it. It's long and wordy because, frankly, it needs to be. Raymie (tc) 01:56, 21 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

2019 US Banknote Contest

edit
  US Banknote Contest  
November-December 2019

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.


If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here
