Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 01:59, 8 January 2007

City votes

Since you recently voted on the Philadelphia article name change, I thought you might be interested in participating on the vote to make a similar name change for Los Angeles. See Talk:Los Angeles, California. Also, if you put my user page on your watchlist, you'll see notifications of other similar votes. --Serge 18:03, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Interstate 4/Lee Roy Selmon Expressway connector (Tampa, FL)

Thank you for adding the references regarding the 40th St closure along I-4. I have been trying to find such references, with no luck however. Wslupecki 20:22, 26 October 2006 (UTC).

DE revert

I noticed you reverted the edits made to add the capital largest cities on the Delaware page. The same user made similar edits to more than a dozen states. Do you plan to revert those as well? - R HokieRNB 17:14, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Honestly, I only noticed Maryland and Delaware b/c I'm watching those pages. If you wanna change them, please feel free. Otherwise, if you don't want to do that, lemme know and I'll fix 'em Jimbo 14:25, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Philadelphia Flyers

Hi, Jimbo. Thanks for your support of the consensus's version of the 'team captains' list. Hope 'Darthflyer' doesn't give you a hard time; he (earlier) removed one of my postings on Talk: Philadelphia Flyers (I've restored the posting). Removing other users' postings from discussion pages, is a Misplaced Pages no-no. Hope 'Darthflyer' discontinues his temper tantrum. GoodDay 23:22, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, man. Don't worry, I can handle Darthflyer; he's just one of the die-hards like me. He means well, but it's the Philly attitude in him; if he's anything like me, he's not beyond PO'd. He's just doing what he thought was right, though it's most likely not. This too shall pass. Jimbo 19:47, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Billy Penn Template

Thanks. Loved it when I was looking at your page, and figured I take it in myself. Hey, I suffered the worst when **** (That player for the Blue Jays is a profanity in my book, and refuse to say the name) hit that home run in 93 to end the World Series, and worse yet, I was 9 at that time, so thats maginified 10 times worse.

Im sure I can find an apporiate page on the user box pages, and put that on there for others to use. PYLrulz 00:02, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Left a reply on my page :) PYLrulz 22:28, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Your signature

I was looking over something else and stumbled across your user signature. Given the connotations of Jimbo on this site, would you change yours to something else? Durova 01:20, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

I apologize, but I have no idea what you're talking about. With all due respect, that's my name and why should I change it, especially for someone I don't even know? I'm sure there's more than one person named Jimbo in this world; what's the big deal about my name? Jimbo 03:16, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm sure there is too, however the name Jimbo is very special on wikipedia as it's the name of the person who started the whole thing - Jimbo Wales. Please change your nickname to something else. Theresa Knott | Taste the Korn 01:14, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

I've asked for input on this here on ANI. -- Donald Albury 01:29, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Un-f'n-believeable! The fact that my name is the same as someone who started this site is becoming a federal issue is appalling and ridiculous!!! It's not as though I'm trying to go around and pose as someone else. All I'm doing is trying to be helpful, but informal, as "Jimbo" is how I'm known in real life! Oh, but let's make this better, shall we? My name is James and I live in St. Petersburg, Florida, so based on that fact alone, is it safe to assume that I'm going to be further persecuted because there's someone who's "more important" than me on this site who's also named James and lives in St. Pete as well? I think not. The people of this site have way too much time on their hands if all they can do is try to make an example of me. Don't you have better things to do, like, I dunno...FIX ARTICLES?!? To prevent further interogations by these imbeciles, I'm going to change my moniker, but be it known that all I'm trying to do like most people are doing here: make this site a better place for the world to find information. If there is any more provacation like this (and that includes pitting a slash through my name one more f'n time!), I will be reporting anyone who does for harassment and I will be going down to the Wikimedia offices on my lunch break...I do, after all, work two blocks away. So, let me do my task and help with these sites and you spend your time picking on someone else, or just leave, because obviously all your doing is wasting all our time! So much for "freedom of speech"... EaglesFanInTampa (formerly Jimbo) 01:59, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

SR 589, SR 618 Infoboxes

Thanks for adding the infoboxes for these two Tampa highways. The boxes definitely make the articles more organized at the introduction. I just completed a rewrite of the SR 589 article and added additional info and a photo for the Tampa Airport Interchanges reconstruction. As for the SR 618 article, I just completed a revision of the toll rates, as they have been raised. However, I would like to know what on earth is SR 620 (As mentioned in the history page)? Is that the future spur to I-4 or something else? Wslupecki 13:53, 6 January 2007 (UTC).

No flippin' clue. It has it listed in the progression box at the bottom of the page, and it's also listed in the List of Florida State Roads, so I couldn't begin to tell you where, if anywhere, it is. If you figure it out, lemme know! Jimbo 18:40, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
