Core Creek Park
editThanks for getting Core Creek Park started. I redirected it from Core creek county park. All caps at the beginning of the words is the preferred format for parks. I named it Core Creek Park since this is what you have in the leading sentence. If you have any questions about this matter or anything else, please ask. Dincher (talk) 03:17, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- To get an idea of how a park article on wiki usually looks take a look at Tyler State Park. Keep working at it and it won't be deleted. Dincher (talk) 18:05, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
Thanks Dincher for helping me out with the Core Creek Park page. I've been trying to get an image up of the park but I have had zero luck, any suggestions?
While searching around for other county parks in Bucks County one wiki, I found Peace Valley, so I put a link next to the name on the Bucks County Park/Rec section. While the summers advances towards fall, I'll be making my way around the county, so I'll get some pictures of different parks to work on.
Your best bet is to get them yourself or search on flickr. Dincher (talk) 19:43, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
I did attempt to add an image code link to my photobucket page. it didn't seem to work. mm..well some one by the name of "Accounts4taste" deleted my Clark Nature Center township park page..I really don't have the time to argue with administrators regarding what's worth making a page for or not. Clark Nature Center is just as important as county parks. Yet certain administrators don't think so. Instead they see it as - this guy didn't post 100% correctly, so guess what we are going to delete the page he made so he has to do it all over again 100%.
fuck that, I'm opening a wordpress account.
Getting started on wiki is not always easy. I agree that some folks need to be more patient with new users. Best of luck. I may get a chance to look at the Core Creek Park main page and work on the article some more. As for photos you'll need to upload them to wikimedia commons. Dincher (talk) 23:45, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
Dincher, thank you for your patients. I'll focus on the Core Creek article with you for now, I have a lot to learn and having some one else on board with me on this to help will teach me a lot. It still really annoys me bout Clark Nature Center..jerks. I'll take a look at wikimedia commons. I have some really nice pictures of the park, and of the lake.
- Once you get a better idea of how this works you can always get Clark Nature Center up and running again. I should be able to work on Core Creek tomorrow afternoon. Dincher (talk) 03:57, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
- I did put Clark Nature Center up again with the information I wanted up there. I also posted a picture on the Core Creek Page
- Hey Dincher, I emailed the general info email for the Parks/Rec. Dept of Bucks County asking them for a brief history on the park and on the lake. I probably wont get a reply till their regular office day, either Monday or Tuesday...due to the holiday they may be closed on Monday. Other than that, I'll get some more pictures uploaded of the playground, basketball courts, and other athletic areas, unless you don't think that's necessary. And thirdly, I have a phillyburbs link to an article regarding a man in his car being found in the lake couple years ago, would that be something to post?
- Sounds good to me. I just did some more "wikification" on Core Creek. This includes putting brackets around words that are linked to other articles on wiki. For example putting brackets around Core Creek Park changes the words to blue and links to the Core Creek article. Dincher (talk) 22:24, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
