Barnstar

		The Photographer's Barnstar
		I award Rcstampede the Photographer's Barnstar for improving the LACMTA Orange Line with four fantastic pictures. It makes the article much more pleasant and more informative with actual pictures of the exterior and interior of the bus and an Orange Line Station. - Hbdragon88 04:58, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Silver Streak in line infoboxes

I was thinking about dropping the "Foothill Transit:" from the infobox and changing the word "Silver Streak" to silver. What do you think?RickyCourtney 07:38, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Metro Express

Yea, I kinda went crazy the other day... one little edit to the article turned into three, and pretty soon I had done a complete overhaul to the article... I like the direction of the article is going now, but I dont think its completely "right" so I feel like it needs some tweaking... but anyways thanks for the complement, and feel free to tweak the article.

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art

First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there! howcheng {chat} 00:21, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

NowCommons: File:Nohostation.jpg

File:Nohostation.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:North Hollywood (LACMTA station).jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:North Hollywood (LACMTA station).jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:30, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Retitle the L.A. Task Force

Your attention is called to the discussion here, suggesting retitling Los Angeles Task Force to Los Angeles County Task Force. Sincerely, BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 22:05, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Checking the list

Hello. I am WP:boldly culling the membership list of the Los Angeles Area Task Force. Some people don’t participate any more. Because you joined more than ten years ago, I am asking if you still want to be listed as a participant. I’ll be deleting those who say no or don’t answer, and then we can move merrily forward. Sincerely, BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 17:15, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
