Readstown, Wisconsin

Hi! I had to revert some longstanding vandalism to the Readstown, Wisconsin article and it undone your editing and that of the bots. My apologies, but I did not know what else I could do. Also I started the article about the former town of Preble, Wisconsin which is now part of Green Bay, Wisconsin that I thought you might be interested in. Many thanks for your work on WikiProject Wisconsin. RFD (talk) 15:07, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

City vs. town

How does the census bureau decide which is which? y'amer'can (wtf?) 16:41, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't. In Wisconsin, the two terms have different meanings legally. See Civil township#Midwestern, central and western states for more details. --Orange Mike | Talk 16:44, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

The context of YA's comment is West Virginia, not Wisconsin. Nyttend (talk) 16:53, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Yup. :) y'amer'can (wtf?) 16:58, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Would y'all mind if I edited out all four of these sentences (from "It doesn't..." on), which were based on a misunderstanding (since Nyttend does good work on Wisconsin articles frequently)? --Orange Mike | Talk 17:10, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. My initial edit was based on Summersville's website, which calls it a city. But it doesn't look like they have undertaken any legal action with the Feds to make it official. y'amer'can (wtf?) 17:07, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Right... Have you ever tried creating a disambiguation page with nine red links and then spent an inane amount of time trying to defend it from being deleted? That's an experience I am in no hurry to repeat.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:30, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Myotherapy and Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Myotherapy

Hi – Why did you delete myotherapy the same day I closed an AFD on the article - actually, less than an hour after I closed it? I take care to clearly state the link to articles I delete as a result of an AFD. I think a more appropriate action would be WP:DRV instead of an A7 deletion.

CDPs in Michigan

Please stop reverting to the jargonish version of the county templates. There is no general consensus supporting your claim of it being "standard" to label these places as CDPs in the context of a navbox. In fact, it would appear there is more support for not labeling places as CDPs than there is for.

Bradford, Ohio

Hi, What is your reason for capitalizing Counties in the phrase Darke and Miami counties?

Mine for not capitalizing are:

• Goldstein, Norm, editor, Associated Press Stylebook and Briefing on Media Law, Cambridge, Massachusetts: Perseus Press (2000) p. 61, states: County Capitalize when an integral part of a proper name: Dade County, Nassau County, Suffolk County ... Lowercase plural combinations: Westchester and Rockland counties.
• An online reference: http://home.comcast.net/~garbl/stylemanual/c.htm Topics capitalization and county both say: Lowercase common noun elements of names in all plural uses: etc.

Removal of speedy tags.

Speedy deletion is based on criteria and not on 'keep' votes. The fact that an MfD was in process is wholly irrelevant. If an article was tagged for copyvio, it doesn't matter if it's at AfD or not or if 200 people have voted for its keep. Votes would not change the nature of the article. the_undertow 06:26, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

your edits to Claymont, Delaware

Hi. You changed the value on the mapsize, which I changed back in my recent upgrades to the article for Claymont, Delaware.

Michigan townships

Just curious: what's the difference between civil townships and general law townships? I understand the difference between civil townships and charter townships, but there's not even an article on general law townships to explain the difference to me. And by the way: would you please answer on my talk page? Nyttend (talk) 23:52, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

A general law township is mostly just localized terminology for the same concept as a civil township. older ≠ wiser 03:07, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

La Cueva

In the La Cueva, New Mexico article you changed "Notes" to "References" saying at 05:25, 8 February 2008, "but name of section is References". However in the style guideline, Misplaced Pages:Footnotes, it says as quoted below. In articles with both notes and general references this is normally separated as Notes (or Footnotes) and References (or Further reading). The general rule on Misplaced Pages is that, absent a compelling reason, where a matter is left open by the guidelines it is not changed from the original. --Bejnar (talk) 05:54, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Place the <references /> tag or {{reflist}} tag in a "Notes" or "References" section near the end of the article—the list of notes will be generated here. (The choice between {{reflist}} and <references /> is a matter of style; Misplaced Pages does not have a general rule.)

I understand well that things should not be changed back and forth when there is no preference. However, there is a preference for community articles: the guidelines strongly prefer the titles that I've put in. Nyttend (talk) 15:49, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Do you have evidence for your statement "the guidelines strongly prefer the titles that I've put in". I did not find that in the guidelines, and, in my experience with geology, biography and history articles that has not been the community preference. The heading "Reference" is obviously ambiguous, nonetheless, it does seem to be used more for the list of general references rather than for the footnotes, maybe this is not true in the geographical articles that you work on. --Bejnar (talk) 17:10, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Look at the header. The guidelines are set up so that each header ("History", "Geography", "Demographics", etc.) is the actual name of a section in the article. Nyttend (talk) 17:56, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Actually, that is pretty inferential. Look at the explicit statement at Misplaced Pages:Citing sources#Section headings. --Bejnar (talk) 18:04, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

"Recommended section names to use for footnotes in Misplaced Pages are:

• ==Notes==
• ==Footnotes==
• ==References==

Many editors use "Notes" as their preferred title for the footnotes section, as the same section can then hold both source citations as well general notes." from Misplaced Pages:Citing sources#Section headings

You may note, that in the La Cueva, New Mexico article that footnote #4 (as of 9 Feb. 2008) is an explanatory note, rather than a citation, as are the first three. --Bejnar (talk) 18:08, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

If you look at typical community articles, that's how it's done. The guidelines say specifically not to include anything except either {{reflist}} or <references/> in those sections; that's what the further reading is for. Nyttend (talk) 18:12, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

I agree that notes and general references should be in separate sections. I also agree that "Further reading" is often (not always) a better label for the general reference section, but what does that have to do with the label name in this case? or in any specific case? See Misplaced Pages:Guide_to_layout headings Notes, References and Further reading. As I said above the label "References" is ambiguous. By the way, the guidelines there suggest adding the text: "See http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Footnotes for an explanation of how to generate footnotes using the <ref> and </ref> tags." in nowiki brackets after the heading and before the <references/>. --Bejnar (talk) 18:41, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but this is the way that it's done with community articles. If you have an issue with it, you'd do better to talk with the WP:CITY people. Nyttend (talk) 05:13, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

It's not me who is not following the guidelines. Heal thyself, physician. --Bejnar (talk) 18:36, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

• You said: "This is a community article, and no evidence provided that it's to be treated differently from other communities." My reply is: This is a Misplaced Pages article, and no evidence provided that it's to be treated differently from other Misplaced Pages artciles. Take a look at Antigua Guatemala, Kabul, Socorro, New Mexico and Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Now don't go and change them just because I have identified them for you. There are plenty more. Please read the guidelines with an open mind. --Bejnar (talk) 00:12, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

population

Hello. I noticed you reverted the population estimates I had mentioned in the articles dealing with towns in Wayne County, North Carolina. You mentioned in the edit summary that WP policy is for 2000 census numbers to be the only ones mentioned in the opening paragraph. Can you show me where it states this? If that is policy, then I won't add recent population estimates anymore because I don't want to violate any type of WP rules. I'm just wondering how so many articles on cities and towns in the U.S. can have recent population estimates if it's not supposed to be in there. An example is Charlotte, North Carolina. The source seems reliable. It's not a big deal, just wanted some clarification so I can know how to edit articles in the future.

Pennsylvania Infoboxes

I was looking on your user page and noticed that you are a fan of infoboxes. Would you care to join me in my quest of adding infoboxes to the municipalities of Pennsylvania? PA seems to be just about the only state without infoboxes across the board. I have the list sorted out a User:Dincher/Woodchuck. I am currently working on Elk County. I have tried several times to get another user User:CapitalBot to run his infobox bot for the PA articles but he has yet to do it. So I am doing it manually.

Restoring demographics

Thanks for your appreciation :-) ! I'm not so much geography-oriented myself, but I happen to have transfered this demographic information (via bot) to the Volapük Misplaced Pages (which is where I work most of the time). After I did that, I realized there had been many errors in the copying of the information -- in about half of the cases because of problems in the bot script itself (I'm not so good at programming), but in about half of the cases because of problems in the original articles -- mostly vandalism. (I was actually surprised to see entire paragraphs wiped out, and this going unnoticed for over a year... and also to see more discrete deletions, only one sentence or two.) So I started correcting the cases I found too (I just did one more: Dublin, North Carolina, where most of the first paragraph in the demographics section had been wiped out three years ago...). --Smeira (talk) 20:00, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Quay County, New Mexico

Regarding this edit, I added Glenrio back into the article. It is indeed a New Mexico community and should not have been removed. Even the Glenrio, Texas article states "Mail is served by a post office on the New Mexico side of the town", so it may be more appropriate for that article to be located at "Glenrio, New Mexico" which is currently a redirect. Towns with identical names do exist in separate states. A simple Google search could have prevented this mistake. →Wordbuilder (talk) 21:17, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply. I'll create the Glenrio article where the redirect currently sits. The problem is that the community has always been small (even when taking both the Texas side and New Mexico side into account) and it is now virtually a ghost town, I might have a tough time finding sources but I'll do the best I can. Keep up the great work. →Wordbuilder (talk) 23:30, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Heh, someone fixed the link on the article today. Look what has existed since the middle of 2005: Glenrio. →Wordbuilder (talk) 21:07, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Navboxes for Tennessee counties

Hi. I sure do appreciate your commitment to improving articles with navboxes and other features. I have two big issues, however, with the navboxes you recently created for Tennessee counties:

(1) There is no meaningful distinction between a "city" and a "town" in Tennessee (see List of cities and towns in Tennessee); these are just two different words for the same thing. Both cities and towns are incorporated municipalities, and the name "city" or "town" has no significance regarding type of municipal charter, population, or anything else. Therefore, navboxes should not list these two as if they were different types of communities. Your note says "as municipalities they're officially distinct, even if there's not much difference"; but in fact THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE. (It's like the difference between "toMAYto" and "toMAHto" -- some people prefer one version and some prefer the other, but both are talking about exactly the same thing.) Bot-created Misplaced Pages articles faithfully distinguish between "cities" and "towns" because they were based on Census data and the Census Bureau is careful to maintain that terminological distinction, but official State of Tennessee sources do not make any distinction.

(2) Apparently, you and I read the "wrap-up" of Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject U.S. counties#Standards for County navboxes (CDPs) very differently. (I guess maybe it's a case of "glass half full" vs. "glass half empty.") You say "there was no requirement that CDPs be merged." I say, "Yes, but the summary of the discussion concluded 'After discussion, consensus seems to lean toward not separating out CDPs in U.S. county nav boxes.'" After seeing that concluding statement, I was surprised to see brand-new county templates being created (and added to articles) that list "CDPs". Furthermore, it seems to me that if I (or some other contributor) say that the distinction between CDPs and other incorporated communities is not meaningful in the area where I live, it is reasonable for me to remove the "CDP" identifier from navboxes for counties in my area.

--Orlady (talk) 01:16, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

• I am well aware that you create these templates and do many related edits nationwide. I applaud your efforts to create these features, and I agree that there's no prohibition on the creation of new templates. My concern is that the content of some of those templates (and the content of the articles with which they are associated) does not accurately depict reality because it is based on Census data classifications that are not used in other sources and are not meaningful to readers. I do not object to creating new templates, but I honestly thought that the consensus of the earlier discussion was in favor of not propagating the term "CDP" into new templates, since it is not a term known outside of the world of census data. --Orlady (talk) 23:46, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

• On my talk page, you said "regardless of whether cities and towns are governmentally identical, please do not merge their listings." For what it's worth, I was inspired to research the topic of Tennessee municipalities and greatly expand List of cities and towns in Tennessee because I was mystified by Misplaced Pages's emphasis on distinguishing between "cities" and "towns" in Tennessee (indicated, for example, by the separate categories Towns in Tennessee and Cities in Tennessee), and I wanted to know more. I determined that in Tennessee these are two equally valid terms for municipalities. Some choose to be called "city" and others choose to be called "town," but there is no difference between them. Also, the only sources that subcategorize Tennessee municipalities as "cities" and "towns" are the Census Bureau and Misplaced Pages (which acquired much content from the Census Bureau). Considering the equivalence of the terms, I think it is misleading for Misplaced Pages county templates to meticulously distinguish between "cities" and "towns" (and it looks silly, especially when dealing with tiny counties -- for example, Template:Perry County, Tennessee seems unduly elaborate for a county of less than 8,000 people with just two tiny municipalities). Can you give me a reason for your request "please do not merge the listings"? (Reasoned requests work much better with me than orders.) --Orlady (talk) 23:46, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

As an FYI -- just because the Census distinguishes cities and towns does not necessarily mean that the state recognizes any meaningful distinction. And Misplaced Pages has in the past emended the bot-created categorization based on Census classifications. For example, a similar situation exists in California, where a municipality may style its name as either a city or a town, but with no difference under state laws. Initially, there were separate categories for cities and towns in California. Category:Towns in California was merged into Category:Cities in California at this CFD. This chapter from the Census Bureau contains indications for which states make meaningful distinctions between towns and cities. However, even though the category was deleted, the distinction remains in the county navboxes (or at least in some). So I'm not sure what to make of that. older ≠ wiser 02:36, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for that useful information, Bkonrad. It seems that Tennessee needs to follow California's precedent and take a couple of categories over to CFD.

That Census reference you cite confirms that Tennessee's population thresholds are the same for towns as for cities. That's only part of the story, however. It does not indicate that there are no other differences between towns and cities. Tennessee does not have law that explicitly says the two terms are interchangeable, but Tennessee laws on local government equate the two terms (e.g., TCA 6-51-401, Part Definitions, says "'Municipality' or 'municipalities' refers to incorporated cities and towns in this state" and TCA 6-54-501, Part Definitions, says "'Municipality' means and includes any city or town organized and operating under the general or special laws of the state of Tennessee") and the law on one form of municipal charter indicates that the designation of "town" or "city" is a choice to be made by each municipality (i.e., TCA 6-1-501, Amendment of charter, says "A municipality may amend this charter for the sole purpose of changing the corporate name of the municipality, including the municipality's designation as a town or city..."). --Orlady (talk) 03:34, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Take it to CFD then; as long as they're classed differently, and as long as I'm not given consensus to do otherwise (for example, the obvious consensus that CDPs aren't required to be listed as such) I'm going to follow the national pattern. Anyway, California's templates still lists the towns separately, as it always has. Nyttend (talk) 04:27, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Geographic references

Because the links to this page are ordinary links rather than transclusions, there's very little that can be done with them. They need to be converted from Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.<ref>]</ref> Blah blah blah to Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.<ref>{{GR|r2}}</ref> Blah blah blah. I'm afraid you'll have to do it by hand or with AWB - there's no magic wand to wave here, unfortunately. Happy‑melon 17:35, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

It wouldn't do anything messy, but it's still a self-reference and, if anything, the documentation of Template:GR is even less helpful than Misplaced Pages:Geographic references.

Thanks for the minor editing. New to this and was not able to get the link to CSX to show correctly. Please advise how this is done the correct way. Also not sure how to note references/sources, could you advise on this too? The history information so far has come from the Marion County 1979 History book, with some editing for current information and removal of to much personal information on living residents, both then and now. I also have more information from the 1883 Marion County History book, a Morral History book and other orginal material. As far as my knowledge of Morral, I am a life long resident of Morral, live in the orginal Morral home mentioned, my ancestors helped start this village and I have served on the village council. I do have more information, but not sure how to add it... some may need its own article, but not sure how that really works. I have some orginal vintage photos, photo post cards of the village and photos of the village as it is today. I also have information on the founding of Salt Rock Township, early information about our early settlers of this area... including the area now known as Harpster, OH of Wyandot County... this information comes from Charles Lewis a former Lt.

КОСОВО ЈЕ СРЦЕ СРБИЈЕ

From Ossmann's talk page "Thanks for reverting the vandalism. It's an interesting thing; do you know what it means? I take it to be something like "Kosovo is a part of Serbia; Serbia is supported by Russia" Nyttend (talk) 19:22, 29 February 2008 (UTC)".

I'm not well up on Serbo Croat but by comparisson to other slavic tongues (in particular Ukrainian СЕРЦЕ) it looks like "Kosovo is the heart of Serbia". Presumeably the emotional rather than geographical heart unless it's moved since I was there in 1999! -- Timberframe (talk) 14:08, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
