Thumbnails are preferable because they allow people to load pages quickly, and only look at full-size pictures if they want to. Speaking as someone who often uses a dial-up connection, I'm particularly aware of this; there's nothing more infuriating than having to wait as a page full of bloated images slowly loads, before you can edit it, check the references, etc. (The pop-culture articles tend to be worse; the more ephemeral and talentless the "artist", the bigger the pictures seem to to have to be.) --] (] 21:42, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

Nice photos! I'm both impressed by, and envious of, your skill(s).
Thanks for the additions to the Roebling biography. Not sure if you're a Knoch grad or not, but Goldinger's book is the most complete recording of Saxonburg history that I've read, and I had him as a Geography teacher a long time ago. Thanks a lot for incorporating it into the article. - ] ] 16:33, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


Re Oddfellows: I share your POV. I just haven't been able to think of an expression that captures the idea better than "the people in power" captures it. (I wish I could!!) It's about Power. The "elites" doesn't capture it - these people really couldn't care less about elitism. The "puppetmasters" is a bit obscure, and I'm not suggesting it, but it does capture it better than either "government" or "elites".<br />
== Newbie Mistake ==
I'm not really happy with either "the establishment" or "the established", but it's the best I can come up with at the moment.<br />
I will quickly and happily accept an expression that captures the essence of "the people in power".<br />
What do you think of "the powerful"? (I'm not sold on that one, either, but if we're grasping at straws ... )<br />

P.S. Happy New Year!
You do not revert when someone has made several more additions. The people I removed do not fit in with the Irish ethnicity, they are majority non-Irish and are not notable for Irish ancestry. The list is a list of Notable people of Irish decent. Although those people are notable, they are not notable as far as Irish ancestry goes, and do not belong on the selected list. If you want a list of anyone with any Irish blood in them, then the list would be very long. The list is meant though not to be just of any blood, but people are are apart of the Irish ethnicity, which is what the page is about. The list you want to create does not fit in with what the page is about. So allow my new additions which do fit in to remain, and keep out those I removed which do not belong. Thank you. ] 04:04, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your very nice note Mwanner. I do not have it on my watch list, but do try to look at that article every so often, and over the last 3 years I have done quite a lot of work on it, one way or the other. Three years ago it was totally a horrible mess, but the article has not yet ever been in really great shape. It is hard to find good reliable sources for the information, and plus the article has a history of getting radically changed and/or tinkered with fairly often by new editors, frequently in ways that are not constructive. It is tiresome to keep trying to fix it up in order to make it look decent, especially trying to get it to read well, but I do what I can when I am in the mood to tackle it. I wish a few more people who are really knowledgeable would take an interest in it. I may copy some of your comments onto the talk page, as I am not sure I can face working on it just right now, as I am rather tired. As for the possible plagiarized info, is there any chance that you can just revert that whole edit? Best, ] (]) 21:46, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Mwanner,


==File source problem with File:GeorgePerkins.jpg==
I watched with amusement as various editors struggled with '''<nowiki>{{See|New York History]]</nowiki>''' for quite a few days. It was introduced quite a while ago, apparently as an effort to take a big chunk of information out of the New York article, and put it into an individual article.
]
Thank you for uploading ''']'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the ] status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.


If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created . '''Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged''' per Misplaced Pages's ], ]. If the image is ] and ], '''the image will be deleted 48 hours after 01:25, 2 September 2010 (UTC)''' per ] criterion ]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the ]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Di-no source-notice --> ] (]) 01:25, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
The root problem with '''<nowiki>{{See|New York History]]</nowiki>''' was simply that the left curly braces were not matched with corresponding right curly braces. A series of editors didn't understand the original intent. In any case, my view is that a link that says "See such-and-such" isn't as useful as '''<nowiki>{{main|New York History}}</nowiki>''', which generates {{main|New York History}},

I struggled and strained to reduce the size of that article, which, by the way, is in need of some sprucing up. (More about that later.) Finally, I got the "summary" down to under 300 words. It really would be better if the summary were in the 100 to 200 word range, but it gets harder and harder as it gets smaller.

Hello there.
Then I saw you had made it "shorter", so I took a look at it to see what violence had been done to it. Whew! I was pleasantly surprised to see that you made it quite a bit better, if only 15 words shorter. Your problem, which is the same one I faced, was in balancing the need to provide useful information, such as that the Indian refugees went to Canada, with the need for brevity. I'm a little worried about POV in the article, too, since the summary goes on at some length regarding the shabby treatment of the Indians at the hands of the American colonists.


I have a copy of The Adventures of Wonk, as you report it is fragile in that the spine has broken so that the front cover is loose but otherwise the pages themselves are in pretty good condition. The book was published in 1945 with a second edition in 1946. If you'd like info about the book let me know. Could it be valuable? It was a pleasure to find someone else out there who knows about this book, a much treasured childhood memory for me.
Now that the summary has been written, its true service to Misplaced Pages begins: all new efforts to provide detailed amplification of the fine points of New York State history can be very usefully added to the "History" article, with perhaps a word or two in the summary. The existence of the pair of resources (summary and full article) ensures that the "urban sprawl" of articles won't be a problem, at least for this part of this one article.


Which brings me to the sprucing-up. In the New York History article, there is are decidedly unwikilike things, such as "this is a stub to be filled in later" or words to that effect, and some HTML-gone-awry here and there. Plenty of work for all of us!<br><br style="clear:both">--]<sup>]</sup> 17:33, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

Hi Mwanner, you helped me a while back by rewriting some text on Daytona Beach Golf Course. I am in a similar dilemma now - I need some text on ] rewritten to place on the ] page. I wonder if I can recruit you handle this task? I am a bit "too close" to the project to think clearly right now. The Ballpark belongs to the City of Daytona Beach, so their text is primary.

1) State of Oregon ODFW and DEQ reports (no copyrights listed, paid for and published with public monies, re-printed with no copyright listings in Oregonian and other local newspapers all the time).
Are you the photographer behind the fine image on the right? It has become a topic of discussion at the ].


The image is being used as an example of a "happy accident", and I was wondering if you could confirm there (or here) the details described by the caption in the Misplaced Pages article. The caption reads:<br>''"The photographer's objective was a perched ]; the artist later discovered that the image serendipitously included the less seen ]"''
2) Lewis & Clark journal entires. Created in 1805 (200 years ago) and reprinted in the 1820's. A bit out of even the new copyright time periods.


Is that true? Ideally we would add that to the image's description, given its current use.
3) Oregon Pioneer interviews from the turn of the 19th century, in public domain.


Thanks for your consideration

: ''OK. You're right about #2 and #3, no problem. But you might have to do some legwork (well, email work) to get to keep the rest. Under current copyright law, any published text is automatically copyrighted, and no copyright notice is required. An author has to take an active step to avoid copyright-- explicitly placing the work in the public domain, or licencing it under a GFDL or equivalent licence. So for sources #1, #4 and #5, you would need to get something in writing from them releasing the text for use on Misplaced Pages and reuse by any of our mirror sites. My guess is, you'd have mixed results at best. I need to do some hunting to find just what you would need-- I'll try to get to it tomorrow.''

Naturally most decent and fair minded Scots would be appalled that this is happening in their country. But it really has to be mentioned until the problem goes away. I could of course have added more references to support this. However, I didn't want to labor the point. Thanks again. ] 21:24, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

==Doc Holliday Photo Problem==

Yes, I know that that photo of the dark-haired man you used is on file in Denver as Doc Holliday. A different photo (see the collar) from the same photo session with the same man actually hangs in the Cochise County Courthouse in Tombstone, and is also labeled Holliday. But I think very probably, it isn't.


==McKenzie Mountain elevation==
The only authentic closeup we have of Holliday is the one in Karen Tanner's book Doc Holliday: A Family Portrait. A standing picture we have of poor quality from 1879 shows he's still the same man by then (still light-haired, as Wyatt says). More importantly, the two closeups we have are of men with different ears.
Looking at McKenzie Mountain article edit history it seems to me that you have added elevation information for this mountain back in 2008 - see . If so, do you remember source of this information? I see that OpenStreetMap has it at 1165 m (or 3822 ft), while currently shows 3832 ft referring to NAVD88 model. Hence, I wonder about the discrepancy. ] (]) 11:56, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
::I seem to have gotten it from the source listed: Adirondack Trails, High Peaks Region (Tony Goodwin, ed.) p. 169 lists the elevation as 3861. AllTrails.com has it at 3861, as does www.adkhighpeaks.com, www.summitpost.org and several others. But you're right, quite a few sites list 3822, and some list it at 3832... puzzling. -- ] | ] 00:49, 9 July 2018 (UTC)


== Better source request for ] ==
See my note on the Doc Holliday discussion page. It behooves us to get a no-question photo of the real J. Holliday on Holliday's wiki page! You can leave the other one in, but include a caption that due to the ears, some do not consider it authentic. You can then let the reader judge. Thanks! ] 22:45, 6 December 2005 (UTC)


Thanks for your upload to Misplaced Pages:
Thanks for your note on the Holliday photo. I didn't even know images could have their own talk pages. I'll modify this one and see if I can come up with a source for the photos in the Tanner book. ] 01:03, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

] and
I don't want to propose new text here because the old text was in the most part quite suitable, although I've done some minor tweaking. WAS 4.250's changes are quite bad, and technically inaccurate -- removing the discussion of copyright infringement is very bad, since you really need some knowlege of copyright infringement to keep fair use rules in context. The "codification" argument looks like semantics, but it's not; the Supreme Court was regularly said that fair use doctrine exists independently from the statutory texts that mention it, which means that Congress has no power to define its extent (i.e, "codify" it). Discussion gets murky because Congress, which does have the power to limit whatever rights of copyright holders it creates by statute, can create a larger "fair use" exception than exists in common law. ] 17:12, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

*The first one, on Middle Saranac, I'm afraid I have no idea what the name is or even which island it is. The second one, though, I know exactly where it is on Lower Saranac, though it's one of a group of three or four and I'm not sure which one, though it doesn't matter much because I believe they are known collectively as the Three Sisters (sometimes Four Sisters-- the last one is really tiny.) They are immediately north of Eagle Island, a 64-acre island in the northern part of the lake. The sisters are all quite small, 200 feet long and less than 50 feet wide. The photo was shot from the west side of the island looking very slightly north of due east. You should be able to see them by following .

PROD warning

Proposed deletion of Grandma Gatewood

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Grandma Gatewood, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Does not conform to standard of notability, i.e. person known only for one event. See WP:BIO1E and WP:BLP1E

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent 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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, 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. Age Happens (talk) 05:12, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I think it is fine as is, removed the prod, and commented why at Talk:Grandma Gatewood. doncram (talk) 05:45, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Oddfellows

Nice photos! I'm both impressed by, and envious of, your skill(s).

Re Oddfellows: I share your POV. I just haven't been able to think of an expression that captures the idea better than "the people in power" captures it. (I wish I could!!) It's about Power. The "elites" doesn't capture it - these people really couldn't care less about elitism. The "puppetmasters" is a bit obscure, and I'm not suggesting it, but it does capture it better than either "government" or "elites".
I'm not really happy with either "the establishment" or "the established", but it's the best I can come up with at the moment.
I will quickly and happily accept an expression that captures the essence of "the people in power".
What do you think of "the powerful"? (I'm not sold on that one, either, but if we're grasping at straws ... )

Menopause

Thanks for your very nice note Mwanner. I do not have it on my watch list, but do try to look at that article every so often, and over the last 3 years I have done quite a lot of work on it, one way or the other. Three years ago it was totally a horrible mess, but the article has not yet ever been in really great shape. It is hard to find good reliable sources for the information, and plus the article has a history of getting radically changed and/or tinkered with fairly often by new editors, frequently in ways that are not constructive. It is tiresome to keep trying to fix it up in order to make it look decent, especially trying to get it to read well, but I do what I can when I am in the mood to tackle it. I wish a few more people who are really knowledgeable would take an interest in it. I may copy some of your comments onto the talk page, as I am not sure I can face working on it just right now, as I am rather tired. As for the possible plagiarized info, is there any chance that you can just revert that whole edit? Best, Invertzoo (talk) 21:46, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi again, As it happens, and despite what I said, I did end up doing a lot of work over the last few hours, attempting to removing many of the duplications, and trying to streamline the article a bit.

File source problem with File:GeorgePerkins.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:GeorgePerkins.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Misplaced Pages's criteria for speedy deletion, F4.

Hello there.

I have a copy of The Adventures of Wonk, as you report it is fragile in that the spine has broken so that the front cover is loose but otherwise the pages themselves are in pretty good condition. The book was published in 1945 with a second edition in 1946. If you'd like info about the book let me know. Could it be valuable? It was a pleasure to find someone else out there who knows about this book, a much treasured childhood memory for me.

Rewrite some text?

Hi Mwanner, you helped me a while back by rewriting some text on Daytona Beach Golf Course. I am in a similar dilemma now - I need some text on Jackie Robinson Ballpark rewritten to place on the Daytona Cubs page. I wonder if I can recruit you handle this task? I am a bit "too close" to the project to think clearly right now. The Ballpark belongs to the City of Daytona Beach, so their text is primary. I can tell that the Daytona Cubs copied their text from the City's web site - its very similar, but not exactly the same. Can you take a look?

New York Adirondack Park map

New York state and its counties

You think the New York state map I put on pages is plain? It shows county borders. It makes more sense to show places in relation to county borders than not. The Adirondack Park is nice but does not have the county borders. That is the only reason I removed the map from so many pages in Clinton, Lewis, Franklin, Essex, and Hamilton Counties. The Adirondack map does not have borders so it is impossible to tell any relationship other than at the state level. Plus, at least one place (in Onondaga County was far outside of the park boundaries. I believe there may be others like that. What makes you think the other New York state map is plain, and this one is good? Please explain in detail. NewYorkeruser (talk) 02:20, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

New York state with counties and Adirondack Park

How about having both the regular New York state map (the one with county borders that I like) and the Adirondack Park map for communities and towns within the park boundaries? Leave the Adirondack Park map out of all other pages as it would be irrevelent. NewYorkeruser (talk) 02:29, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

I can try to add the park to the New York map I made showing counties. Ruhrfisch ><>° 00:59, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
I switched the map above for the new one with the Adirondack Park shown in green. This took me about an hour, adding rivers would be even more work, so hope this suffices. Ruhrfisch ><>° 02:41, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
I am pretty low-tech - I resized the other map and then traced the park outline by hand then colored it (switched color twice too, which took longer). Unfortunately I am not able to do svg files - I've tried and it just does not work out. The Graphics Lab can do the conversion though. Ruhrfisch ><>° 01:26, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
PS The new map is the same size and latitude and longitude as the other map, so it can be easily calibrated for use in geobox or other such automatic dot infoboxes - that is pretty easy to do if you want me to, just let me know. Ruhrfisch ><>° 01:32, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
I made Template:Geobox locator New York Adirondack for using this map in Geoboxes. Ruhrfisch ><>° 12:34, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

Serendipity talk page

Are you the photographer behind the fine image on the right? It has become a topic of discussion at the Misplaced Pages talk page for "Serendipity".

The image is being used as an example of a "happy accident", and I was wondering if you could confirm there (or here) the details described by the caption in the Misplaced Pages article. The caption reads:
"The photographer's objective was a perched Black-crowned Night Heron; the artist later discovered that the image serendipitously included the less seen Pileated Woodpecker"

Is that true? Ideally we would add that to the image's description, given its current use.

More info on Hotchkiss gun?

Hi, I see you are a contributor to the article about the Hotchkiss gun, am I reading the history of that article correctly?

I'm looking for more detail about the use of that weapon in the Indian Wars from 1877 to 1890. The article says it was used in the 1877 Nez Perce War, and in 1890 at the Wounded Knee massacre.

I am specifically interested in where, when and against which tribes the gun was used during the time between 1877 and 1890.

I am inexperienced at navigating article histories, and uncertain as to how I can learn who contributed that part of the article, so I can ask for more background or references. You're my best bet so far!

If you have any guidance, I'd be most grateful.

Thank you.

McKenzie Mountain elevation

Looking at McKenzie Mountain article edit history it seems to me that you have added elevation information for this mountain back in 2008 - see . If so, do you remember source of this information? I see that OpenStreetMap has it at 1165 m (or 3822 ft), while Peakbagger.com currently shows 3832 ft referring to NAVD88 model. Hence, I wonder about the discrepancy. IAmKrzys (talk) 11:56, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

I seem to have gotten it from the source listed: Adirondack Trails, High Peaks Region (Tony Goodwin, ed.) p. 169 lists the elevation as 3861. AllTrails.com has it at 3861, as does www.adkhighpeaks.com, www.summitpost.org and several others. But you're right, quite a few sites list 3822, and some list it at 3832... puzzling. -- Mwanner | Talk 00:49, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

Island Names

Do you know the exact name of these islands?

and 

Thanks.

Bacardi379 (talk) 21:37, 11 January 2019 (UTC)

  • The first one, on Middle Saranac, I'm afraid I have no idea what the name is or even which island it is. The second one, though, I know exactly where it is on Lower Saranac, though it's one of a group of three or four and I'm not sure which one, though it doesn't matter much because I believe they are known collectively as the Three Sisters (sometimes Four Sisters-- the last one is really tiny.) They are immediately north of Eagle Island, a 64-acre island in the northern part of the lake. The sisters are all quite small, 200 feet long and less than 50 feet wide. The photo was shot from the west side of the island looking very slightly north of due east. You should be able to see them by following this link.

Hope this helps! Mwanner | Talk 01:43, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

Stony Creek Ponds moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Stony Creek Ponds, is not suitable as written to remain published. In 2023, we can't have articlees with zero source in main space. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Misplaced Pages). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Maliner (talk) 16:38, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Stony Creek Ponds has been accepted

Stony Creek Ponds, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Misplaced Pages! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as Stub-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. It is commonplace for new articles to start out as stubs and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider leaving us some feedback.

Thanks again, and happy editing!
