[edit] Thanks (on Hamza Robertson)!

Hey! Many thanks for the spelling correction! Your a GOOD WIKIPEDIAN, and there isn't many of them around. EddyJawed 22:02, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Heighth!

thanks for your spelling correction to Samuel Pepys, but I'm afraid I have reverted it. Pepys really did spell it "heighth". He had terrible spelling, but it is a quotation so needs to be verbatim from the original. Thanks Thruston 22:02, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Great work!

Just dropped by to say Thank You for your spelling correction work. utcursch | talk 17:20, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I'll second utcursch. You seem to be spending many hours on a largely unnoticed task. Are you doing it all manually, or is there a program you use to catch errors? -Phoenixrod 18:45, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to third this. I've spent forever on the 2007 in NASCAR article, and I still miss the little stuff like that. Thanks so much! DiegoTehMexican 21:13, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't have any program. Most of the time, I scan the Recent Changes for an article I might be interested in reading. Either I see an error or see something that could easily be misspelled or mistyped. A wikisearch or a Google search later and away I go! --JustAGal 16:27, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Portmanteaus and others

Thanks for busting up "center field(er)" and "home plate" into two words each, but http://www.m-w.com has "groundout" as the noun (tho I'd still use "ground out" or of course "grounded out" for the verb).--BillFlis 19:32, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Season

Regarding your edits to the Office Gossip page. As this was a British programme the term 'series' is used not 'season', which is an American term. Can you please make sure you check the page before changing words like this. Thank you. --Berks105 09:14, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] For you

You already have one for your work on spellings, but I just have to give you another one.

The Minor Barnstar
For your tedious, untiring work with spellings -- Lost(talk) 16:02, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

BTW, if you are not using WP:AWB, you should. It is great for stuff like this -- Lost(talk) 16:05, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spell checking

If your thing is spell checking, following me around wikipedia should give you plenty of enjoyment. :) Thanks for the correction on SS MIT Victory. Nice to see someone else in its edit history, too. --J Clear 01:07, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I noticed your spell fixing too. It is appreciated. ike9898 20:55, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] firefox 2

Could I interest you in using Firefox 2 for editing? The inline spell checker allows for easier spotting of typographical errors. This is not a criticism, rather support for your considerable effort. --darklilac 21:12, 12 October 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Wellington High School

I would like to create a disambig page at Wellington High School. As it stands now this points to an article about a school in New Zealand. My problem is that there is already a Wellington High School (New Zealand) page that redirects to Wellington High School. What do I do? --JustAGal 17:28, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, what other links do you want at the Wellington High School article? You can reply here. Meanwhile I will go and create the disambig page -- Lost(talk) 17:31, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
So far I have come up with the following:
  • Wellington High School in New Zealand
  • Wellington High School in Wellington, FL
  • Wellington High School in Wellington, KS
  • Wellington High School in Wellington, OH
  • Wellington High School in Wellington, TX
  • Wellington-Napoleon High School in Wellington, MO
  • Wellington C. Mepham High School in Bellmore, NY

--JustAGal 17:36, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Woops I did the move meanwhile :) You can access the page by this link -- lucasbfr talk 17:39, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the help from both of you! I can take it from here!--JustAGal 17:42, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
Anytime! If you need some more help you can either ask us on our talk page or put the helpme tag again :). By the way, it appears that the move button works if the target page exists but is just a redirection (and never was an article). I learn something new each day. Happy Editing! -- lucasbfr talk 17:57, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
That's what I couldn't get my head around! :-) --JustAGal 18:02, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My sandbox

Please stop editing the links in my sandbox. These links are there for a purpose for me and are part of something I'm working on. Your edits are not beneficial to what I am doing and I'd appreciate it if you left my sandbox alone. Thanks, Metros232 20:48, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] School edits

Thanks for all of your work on Shawnee High School, among the many other school edits that you have done that have overlapped with my little corner of the world in New Jersey. It's always easy to assume that a school is named uniquely, but that is so often not the case. Not only did you rename the article, but I greatly appreciate the followthrough in correcting all of the references in other article to the new name. Thanks for all your hard work; It's a pleasure to see other people who have put so much time and effort in improving Wikipedia and it's school articles. Alansohn 20:59, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Again, thanks for your work on Mount Olive High School and making all of the moves needed for the New Jersey school. Please let me know if we can work more closely together on school articles, particularly as related to New Jersey's high schools, where I have made a major dent in creating the required articles. Alansohn 18:56, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your edits on Knob Noster High School, if i have any questions i will come to you as to how to do something.Knobbie10 14:39, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Riverview High School

I would like to make a school disambig page at Riverview High School. Currently, it has info about the high school in Sarasota, Florida. However, this school already has an article at Riverview High School (Sarasota, Florida). I don't want to confuse, lose or otherwise do any harm to either article. How should I proceed?--JustAGal 19:15, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

The Riverview High School (Sarasota, Florida) article seems to be almost exclusively about the drum corps. I'd merge the content of Riverview High School into Riverview High School (Sarasota, Florida) manually, and then change Riverview High School to a dab page, Alansohn 19:48, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. As you've now been helped, I'm removing the {{helpme}} tag. EVula // talk // ☯ // 20:22, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Invitation to new WikiProject

Sorry to disturb, but am wishing to take a moment of your time for something I hope will be of interest. I'd like to invite you to join a new WikiProject I've started, WikiProject National Register of Historic Places. Should you be so inclined, please feel free to join. And spread the word to any other interested parties.  :)

I'm sending this invite b/c you've already been helping our project (without even meaning to!) by disambiguating schools on the various Registered Historic Places lists. So you might as well make it official, huh? Either way, thanks and keep up the good work.  :) -Ebyabe 13:19, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Richland High School

Hey, I was wondering why you moved the Richland High article. It's a bad idea to have parenthenses in the name of any article unless they're needed for disambiguation, but there don't seem to be any other Richland High's. Are you about to make a disambiguation page with some names, or did I miss something? Matt Yeager ♫ (Talk?) 22:13, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I am making a disambiguation page. I simply ran out of time yesterday. I should be able to get it finished today. --JustAGal 13:53, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks For Correcting Link

Thank you for correcting the link in my userpage. Sorry it took so long to thank you but I just noticed. VarunRajendran

[edit] School updates

In the next week or so I'll be able to step up my Wikipedia involvement a little more (after exams and such). I'd be more than willing to coordinate efforts with the school links we both have been working on it appears. If you have any sort of "to do" list you want to throw together, by all means, please do. I hope to be able to start helping after December 14th, but definitely after December 20th. Thanks, Metros232 20:23, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Brandon High School dab page

Hi. Regarding the new Brandon High School disambiguation page you created, are you going to make some of those red links blue soon? There's generally no point in having a disambiguation page with only one blue link on it (see WP:CSD#G6). Thanks. —Wknight94 (talk) 14:36, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ASUE

Project Logo Hello, JustAGal and thank you for your contributions on articles related to A Series of Unfortunate Events. I'd like to invite you to become a part of WikiProject A Series of Unfortunate Events, a WikiProject aiming to improve coverage of A Series of Unfortunate Events and related articles on Wikipedia.

If you would like to help out and participate, please visit the project page for more information. Thanks! <3Clamster 17:59, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Categories

Hi, I noticed your recent edit to Hasbrouck Heights High School and others, adding Category:High schools in New Jersey. This is not necessary, as the schools are already in Category:High schools in Bergen County, New Jersey, which is already underneath Category:High schools in New Jersey. --ChrisRuvolo (t) 04:38, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bishop Lynch High School

Hi there, I've removed the category you added to the Bishop Lynch High School article. The category Category:Private high schools in Dallas, Texas is now within Category:High schools in Texas.. which makes the article redundantly sorted if it is placed in both. I didn't realize that the Private HS category wasn't a part of the HS in Texas category.. my bad! drumguy8800 C T 20:39, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] thanks for clean-up

Thank you for cleaning up Paradigm High School. fyi, It might need major clean up soon... I really don't know when (for explanation, see the current last sentance of the article) Sir Intellegent 01:08, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WestSide

I just want to know who you are because of what you did for the Westside article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 168.11.158.74 (talk) 15:18, 15 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Monarch High School (Florida) at AfD

Another editor has listed an article that you have been involved in editing, Monarch High School (Florida), at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Monarch High School (Florida). Please look there to see why this is, if you are interested in whether it should be deleted. Thank you. --Eastmain 00:55, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for yor help

Just wanted to say thank you for cleaning up my schools wiki. I had just finished writing it up and was wondering if it needed work. Ricky 18:11, 18 February 2007 (UTC)Kurosaki Ricky

[edit] AfD nomination of Lin-wood High School

An editor has nominated Lin-wood High School, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lin-wood High School and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. Jayden54Bot 21:34, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Those two articles on April uncategorized

Hi. I noticed you were wondering what was happening with the two articles on the April uncategorized page where their categories didn't show up. Someone, when they edited the articles, forgot to close a <ref> tag and that made everything below not show up. I went ahead and fixed them. But thanks for helping! Crystallina 20:25, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Locked in Time question

Greetings!

You added the categories back into this article. I had cleaned it up per the cleanup-taskforce. Is there some procedural step I overlooked? --Otheus 18:29, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Message to trollers

Hey you!. Making spelling corrections and copyediting is a joy for some. Maybe u find it funny, but it's seriously hard work. I propose you apologize to JustAGal, okay? --Otheus 16:15, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Millencolin and the Hi-8 Adventures

Hi, I noticed you added Millencolin and the Hi-8 Adventures to Category:Punk rock groups. However, this is not an article about the group (Millencolin), it's an article about their video. Did you add this by mistake? - Mattingly23 20:31, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] MOD Guarding Service

Done, hope that's ok?

[edit] the Mather School

Thank you for your fix! I spent so much time on that article, I guess I can't be perfect even though I tried. lol. Hey, did you know, it's been nominated for the front page? OMG, I'm scared. Thanks for your help! Jeeny 00:11, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lanier High School (Austin, Texas)

Hi, thank you for spotting that this page was copyvio and I have now deleted it. Many new editors are not familiar with copyvio issues and it is helpful to place {{subst:AntiVandal|Lanier High School (Austin, Texas)|uw-copyright|3=url=http://www.austinisd.org/schools/website.phtml?id=020}}~~~~ (that can be found towards the bottom of the speedy template) on their talk page.

Wikipedia needs more people like you. Thank you for your edits to Harrah's Council Bluffs. I have never created an article before and it was nice to have someone help me out rather than critisize me. Thanks so much! You are greatly appreciated!--LocalBandAid02 19:16, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] deletion

[edit] Sugar-Salem High School

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Sugar-Salem High School, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. 67.161.251.165 05:11, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chicago Landmark Stubification

I am writing you because you either (1) edited Chicago Landmark 5 weeks ago when it was the WP:CHICOTW (2) edited it or created a stub last week when we had the stubification drive for it or (3) you nominated an article to be the CHICOTW in the last few days.

I have finally had a chance to take a tally on last week’s stubification effort. Based on my manual count we now have 109 bluelinks on a total of 241 landmarks. Preliminary indications were that for our article to be successful at WP:FLC we would need to eventually rename it (something like List of Chicago Landmarks) and get the majority of the landmarks linked. Based on my cursory count we need to write 12 more articles to get to a majority. It would be great if you might be able to assist by creating a couple stubs to assist in this effort. Here are some of the stubs that were created during last week’s efforts: Black Metropolis-Bronzeville District, Historic Michigan Boulevard District, Arthur H. Compton House & One North LaSalle. Among the articles still redlinked are 2 buildings on this week’s CHICOTW, Magnificent Mile (Perkins, Fellows & Hamilton Office and Studio, Woman's Athletic Club). Recall that each redlink on Chicago Landmark has a footnote to a reference that gives you enough info to create a stub. If you create a new stub please add it to Wikipedia:WikiProject_Chicago#Newly_Created_Chicago_Related_Pages so that we can keep track of the progress.

Why did you undo that revision Soxrock did on the Chiefs roster? Tynes was traded to the Giants today.Chris Nelson 21:00, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

  • My apologies. I'm in KC and hadn't heard that so I (wrongly) thought it was vandalism. kansascity.com just posted their story 20 minutes ago, 4 minutes before I undid the revision. And I am listening to KCFX (flagship station of the Chiefs!) and they haven't mentioned it yet! Oh well. :-( Once again, my apologies. --JustAGal 21:21, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

I attended Calvin Academy in Moundsview, MN for two years from 2000-2002. My family is now trying to find out if the school still exists for the child of some of their friends. I cannot find it listed online anywhere and your article implies that it may be still operating at some level in Saint Paul. If you know anymore about this or have any idea where more information can be found, I would appreciate it greatly. Thanks!

[edit] More help needed

If you have been following along at WP:FLC#List_of_Chicago_Landmarks you know we need help creating stubs for the List to make it a more useful list and help it achieve WP:FLC status. Since I reminded people of this 7 stubs have been created. We need about 40 more to be safe although we may have a successful candidacy with the article as it stands.

Some of you may also be following the success of WP:CHICOTW at Wikipedia:WikiProject Chicago/COTW/Good Articles. For the last 4 weeks no one has been very active. Thus, I am fearful that Historic Michigan Boulevard District, Harold Washington Cultural Center, Crown Fountain, & Art Institute of Chicago Building will all fail at WP:GAC when their turns come up. Also, Magnificent Mile did not experience the collaborative spirit. Our reputation as a successful collaboration is at stake. In addition to making stubs for the FLC we need your contribution to our collaborations. I am sorry to pull you away from whatever other wikipleasures you may be experiencing, but we need your help.

A tag has been placed on Ilio volante, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD a7.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. B1atv 08:11, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] All Your Football work

I don't know if its the same case for you, but when I go to my watchlist, your name is on like 70 % of the stuff. Just wanted to say good work on all the NFL player pages. Jwalte04 19:17, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Thanks! I'm just doing what I can.--JustAGal 19:22, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
On this same topic, I wanted to let you know that your capitalization of both words in the links for football positions, like Defensive tackle, Defensive end and Tight end are creating re-directs. They are not proper nouns, so only the first word is capitalized.
Also, is there any reason you're italicizing present in NFL infoboxes? Most of them have not been done this way and I'd like to keep them all standardized.►Chris NelsonHolla! 13:30, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Regarding the capitalization: I guess I hadn't thought about the redirect part. I just thought it looked better. No problem, I'll stop. And regarding the italicizing, I know I saw a directions on some template or project page but I'll be darned if I can find it now. Oh well. I'll stop that too. Cheers! --JustAGal 14:00, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category sorting

Firstly, let me applaud your efforts on biographical articles. One quick point, though: please read Wikipedia:Categorization of people#Ordering names in a category. It's not obvious, but names with apostrophes and non-iniital capital letters actually have to be mis-spelt to have them sort correctly in categories or DEFAULTSORTs. Thus, "Denis O'Hare" should be sorted as "Ohare, Denis", not "O'Hare, Denis", and "DeBerg" should be sorted as "Deberg", because apostrophes and capitals come before the other letters in the computer character order that Wikipedia uses, but English language sorting ignores apostrophes and is case insensitive. You can think of this as a work-around for a computer bug, which it actually is. Studerby (talk) 22:09, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi JustAGal, I hope you're not offended, but I reverted the edit you made to the article. You were right in removing the category, and I removed it after the revert. However the other two changes were incorrect. Per WP:FLAGS, flags shouldn't be used in infoboxes when discussing place of birth. Also, the article reads "...transferring to Georgia." so adding the "the" made it read as "...transferring to the Georgia." Understandable mistake, as you probably misread while editing and thought that it read "...transferring to University of Georgia." which would have necessitated the additional word. Feel free to contact me on my talk page if you have any questions or anything. :) Cheers, faithless (speak) 21:44, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] O.A. Cargill

The article on Oklahoma Supreme Court Justice O. A. Cargill which you have previously edited has since developed a number of problems warranting the addition of several maintenance tags to the article. Any thoughts on how to fix these problems and improve the article would be appreciated. --TommyBoy (talk) 18:04, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Opothleyahola

Hi I noticed that you changed the category at Opothleyahola from "People from Alabama" to "People from Elmore County, Alabama". Is this appropriate, as Opothleyahola was dead for three years before Elmore county had been organized and had been forcibly removed from the area more than thirty years before?

  • You are absolutely right! I didn't think that one through. I reverted my edit. Cheers! --JustAGal (talk) 16:41, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Missouri AND Texas

On the page 'Category:Texas artists', the heading says, "Artists who were born in, have lived in, have worked in or been involved with Texas." Jerry Wilkerson fits that definition quite indisputably, so I have restored 'Texas artists' as a category for him. MdArtLover (talk) 21:37, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Richard W. Fisher Article

I have added a "NPOV" tag to the Richard W. Fisher article which you have previously edited due in part to potentially controversial edits to the article by an anonymous user. I have initiated a discussion on the article's Talk page, and your thoughts on how best to resolve this matter would be appreciated. --TommyBoy (talk) 00:22, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Nevermind, User:Crosbiesmith has removed the information from the article. --TommyBoy (talk) 14:39, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bill Anoatubby

I noticed you switched Bill Anoatubby from Category:People from Oklahoma to Category:People from Johnston County, Oklahoma, which as you can see, is currently red-linked, and Bill Anoatubby is the only article in the category. Were you planning on creating a new category? --TommyBoy (talk) 23:27, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for fixing that red link and creating the new category. --TommyBoy (talk) 14:57, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Jacob hester

What's the point of having pages like this? Shouldn't this "lowercase" page just be deleted, rather than redirected? Seems to me like a waste of space, when Wikipedia would automatically redirect on it's own if this page did not exist. Sorry, just a bit of annoyance, when I see pages like this... --Cdman882 (talk) 14:56, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Do you by any chance like to edit Arkansas Razorback articles? Because me and a couple other user's are wanting to start a Razorback wikipedia project see tis link for the page Here and contact me on my talk page if you want to be a part of the project or not. It's going to be a lot of work but I think we can do it :)! #1 Metallica Fan Your Hancock 18:45, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
