Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 19:42, 26 February 2006

Hello, you may think this is a new member on Misplaced Pages, but it is not. It is a role account for CanadaGirl. It will be used instead of the main account (so as not to inflate the edit count anymore) for things like:

• spelling corrections
• categorizing and category fixes
• (more tasks later as I think of them)

It will not be used for sock puppet voting or any similar action that would be considered circumventing policy.

Also, this is not a bot.

Eaton's

Hi. Glad to see that you're interested in the Eaton's articles. It really is excessive to create a subcategory for the Eaton family members, however, esp. since there is already a list and the topic is arguably better handled that way. The Eaton's category is already fairly small, and it is not helpful to the reader to create unnecessary subcategories. I'd be happy to discuss it further, though.

CSD

Thanks for tagging a lot of articles for CSD - I really appreciate your effort! However, when you tag empty categories, use CSD C1 instead of A1. C1 states that categories that have been empty for more than one week can be speedily deleted. Thanks! --M@thwiz2020 01:42, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

how did you do that? I would have on my own if i could. JamieJones 00:35, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Egyptologist categories

Thanks for tagging those categories for redirection. I hadn't done much with categories before this, and wasn't entirely sure how to fix my mistake. -Colin Kimbrell 22:39, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Old Ignatians

Thanks for categorizing the above. St Ignatius' College is not an English "public" school, however. It was a grammar school but is now a comprehensive. Is there a more appropriate category for it?Phase1 11:47, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Category:New York State routes

Thanks you for attempting some kind of cleanup, however, I reverted your change because we are in the process of renaming the articles from "New York State Highway N" to "New York State Routes N" (where N is the route number) since NYSDOT does not call their numbered state roads "Highways", but refers to them as "Routes" instead. Creating a redirection category was one of the first steps in correcting this problem. As the articles are renamed and edited, this category can eventually be not redirected and the other one will be. Small steps for a large task. FYI: There is also a Misplaced Pages:WikiProject New York State routes under which this items are being discussed and organized.

Category remamings

Why you want to rename the categories I conceived like "Ashevillians" and "Greenvillians"? To me it's common, they have categories like for example "Saint Louisans" or "Atlantans".

Category:Wikipedians by alma mater:Catholic education:Christian Brother

Category:Wikipedians by alma mater:Catholic education:Christian Brother isn't an empty category--64.12.116.11 19:12, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Yes it is, I just looked. The only thing that was there was your mistaken addition of my talk page to it. CG janitor 19:16, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

• Comment, there are over 77 users listed under this category, it most certinaly is NOT empty--64.12.116.137 19:34, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

If you read my comment at that category, you'll see that it is a vandal (with an IP in the same range as yours) that has added all the pages. CG janitor 19:38, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

That's absurd, there are almost 200 users in that category, are you really implying that I somehow added 200 people to an "empty" category over the course of 10 minutes?--64.12.116.11 19:40, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Either that or you had help. It was empty 15 minutes ago CG janitor 19:41, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Had help??? has it occured to you that maybe you were looking a different category?--64.12.116.11 19:42, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
