[edit] LHS panorama

About the picture size... Agreed. However, making a thumbnail of such a wide panorama seems equally silly -- It makes the picture so small that you can't see anything anyhow, so might as well leave it as just a bare link. I'm not quite sure what the solution would be for that, except perhaps to only use part of the picture, and link the full one from somewhere else after all. In any case, I can at least fix up the distortion, if not the lighting differences, though I won't have the time for a couple days. You can send them to Bbik1 (at) lycos (dot) com. -Bbik

Well, a bit later than planned, and not the greatest ever, but... Image:LHSpan.jpg. Completely forgot about the overwrite/update link, so it's a whole new picture, but oh well. Ended up cutting off the parking area/grass at the right, and a little from the left, so it's not quite so wide and shows up a bit better as a thumbnail, even if it does drain out all color. -Bbik 01:24, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] List of high schools in New Hampshire

Wow! Thanks for catching that! Can't believe I went to Hanover High and didn't even notice it wasn't showing up :) -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 04:16, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Londonderry

Hi, Cheque some! I've reverted your change to Londonderry, New Hampshire and wanted to explain. All 220 towns and cities in NH have a standard format derived from WP:CITIES. While there's been a ton of discussion about inhabitants / natives / residents, the NH towns are standardized with "inhabitants", mostly because "resident" implies a legal recognition (which summer visitors don't have) and "native" implies "born in" which is, again, not always true. Just thought I'd leave a note :) Happy editing! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 03:49, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

But don't you think inhabitant has the connotation of someone currently living in the town? I think maybe something like Inhabitants (Past and present) would be the best.
cheque_some 01:59, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
You're right that there's a connotation there. Usually, though, when one looks at the list and sees someone born / died in the 18th century, that connotation is dispelled :) Plus, it's just a connotation - "notable inhabitants" doesn't really specify a timeframe. Personally, I prefer the shorter version. And since all 220 cities and towns in NH have been done by that standard, I wouldn't want to have to change them all. :) -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 02:21, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Nevermind, it was already subjected to prod once, I'll route it through a more formal channel. TableManners 02:50, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
