I just want to let you know that the re-vamping is about 75% done. However, I have two questions:
1. Currently, in his Early Career Section, there is one piece of info (that I can't find a source for) that reads: "He moved up to a Midwest regional touring series - the ARTGO series (now Midwest Challenge Series). He finished in the Top 10 in points every season from 1998 to 2000." However, on NASCAR.com, in Travis Kvapil's Bio, there is piece of info (from the same time period) that reads: "Finished fourth (2000) and 10th (1999) in the NASCAR AutoZone Elite Division, Midwest Series and scored two wins at Pikes Peak International Raceway." So, should the info be replaced or added to? 2. Should a stat box (The one that sums-up each year by rank, wins, top-5s, top-10s, etc.) be placed inside the article?
So, please, as early as you can, respond to me on my talk page. By the way, could you also tell me how well you like the re-vamping? JediYoda1120 (talk) 00:48, 16 June 2008 (UTC) So, please, as early as you can, respond to me on my talk page. By the way, could you also tell me how well you like the re-vamping? JediYoda1120 (talk) 00:48, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for helping me out! I should have this article complete by Wednesday, at the latest. However, one of your recent edits on Travil Kvapil's page had you adding in the picture that stated, "Kvapil's #32 (right) in 2006" (Right). Well, not to ruin your parade or anything, but if you were to take a closer look at the photo, you will realize that the picture is actually from 2005, not 2005, which means that would be Bobby Hamilton, Jr.'s Chevrolet, and not Kvapil's, since he drove the #77 Dodge in 2005. Also, if it was 2006, the FedEx Chevy would be solid black and not half-white, half-purple. Just wanted to let you know. JediYoda1120 (talk) 04:25, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
Alright, here's my current situation: Travis Kvapil's article is about 95% done. However, before I can complete what needs to be done in order to finish, which is expanding the intro paragraph (Do You Agree?: I plan on writing a second paragraph that highlights his achievements, which includes his championship in the Truck Series during the 2003 Season.), adding some back-up references (For example, I have a source that states Kvapil drove for Bang! Racing in 2004, but it doesn't say the truck was sponsored by Line-X and Ebay.), and sourcing the info box, I need major, and I mean major, help with this, "< ref name = NAME > information </ref >". See, the problem was that I tried to follow your instructions, that you gave me, but with the set-up I had for citing (I use that formula because it is the one that is used more often now-a-days on Wikipedia.), every time, in red bold letters, a message, that said, "Invalid Cite," appeared. So, please, if you can, help me out. By the way, since the article is just about complete, could you re-read the article and tell me how well you like it? I believe I covered all of the major points in Kvapil's career and filled in the gaps with the info that makes the article flow smoothly and doesn't make a reader, that doesn't know much about NASCAR, take his hand, put it his head, scratch it, and ponder, "Huh?"

I was actually about to delete this article when you removed the speedy tag. I did read one of the VH1 articles that were referenced at the end of the article, and found this direct quote: "While he hadn't yet attained widespread popularity..." -- which seemed to me to be a classic definition of someone who didn't meet the notability guidelines. However, I thought I'd offer you the opportunity to perhaps fill in this article further, or give me the benefit of your thinking, if you cared to do that. I'll hold off until you reply, and thanks for your time in considering this. Accounting4Taste:talk 00:53, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

What would it take to have all of the articles I have written deleted from wiki? JG Race 1194 (talk) 01:12, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
What the deal is, is that I uploaded a video game cover, and I had the wrong copyright tag on it. I looked through wiki's copyright policy, and I noticed that album covers can be used, as long as you are talking about an album. Can the same be true for video game covers as well? JG Race 1194 (talk) 19:04, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
I have totally no idea on how to change any of the pix I uploaded. Just delete all of them. That way, i won't have to release my pix to public domain...which I really didn't want to do anyway, but I couldn't get them on here any other way. JG Race 1194 20:21, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Thank-you.
As far as deleting all of the articles I've written, I would like to do that, since it could be construed as intellectual property, which is protected by copyright laws also. JG Race 1194 20:48, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Actually, the reason I ask is because I forgot to follow a philosophy I developed several years ago: "Don't help anyone, with anything, ever." No matter what I do (or don't do) I catch flack. BTW, Racing in Illinois was not the article I wrote that survived AfD. None of my articles slated for deletion have survived. Illinois race car drivers, and List of illinois race Drivers were my 2 articles that were deleted. Racing in Illinois was never nominated, or should I say has not yet been nominated?

Thanks, I appreciate the barnstar. I'm glad that the images can be used here and I think they help tell part of the story of the flooding. I hope to find more, but it might take some time.

i don't mean to bother you with this, but an admin involved with the motorsports articles is probably the person to talk to...
while browsing wikipedia recently i stumbled across some strange edits made by user "Canadian Cup". at first glance, this all seems to be vandalism. the user has created a group of pages (and apparently one other user page, as an article) and edits pertaining to a "Canadian Cup" stock car racing series. it looks somewhat legit at first, until noticing a few drivers' full names are "biff", "salt", "fluffy", and "breakfast", not to mention a Canadian series claiming to compete at daytona during speedweeks... they've made a few pages for drivers, which contain nothing but an infobox, and use the "cup series" fields to provide the probably-bogus stats. the drivers are also claimed to drive for Sprint Cup teams, who obviously do not actually field cars for any type of series.
even if the series were to exist, typing it into a search engine brings up no results at all, so it would pretty much fail notability anyway. and as a side note, edits made by this user on some other articles has been vandalism.
again, sorry to bug you with this, but i figured nominating all the articles for deletion one by one would be pointless compared to bringing it to an admin's attention, given the amount of editing being done. thanks for your time. --MP 103 06 (talk) 23:38, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi! You probably remember me from the Indy 500 results table, but I am Meisfunny from Wikipedia:WikiProject American Open Wheel Racing and I was wondering if we could use your bot to do the introductions of minor 2007 IndyCar Series races. All it would have to be is Race Name was held on date. The race winner was winner and on the pole was polesitter. Users could add others on the way. I, however, have no clue how to use a bot. Let me know what we can do. Meisfunny Gab 17:37, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
Rb, I was perusing Leadfoot (computer game), and I stumbled across the discussion page. It seems as though it has been stated that it is within the scope of WikiProject Video games. What all is entailed with joining that project, and/or nominating the other Ratbag PC game that does not have that tag on it's discussion page (Dirt Track Racing: Sprint Cars)?
Also, what would be entailed with starting a WikiProject Racing Video Games or something along those lines? I noticed there are quite a few wikiProjects with video games in their titles. JLG 2701 23:00, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

I am doing this because some sources, such as this one refer to them as pop punk, not 'Christian pop punk.' I'm not disputing that they are also 'Christian pop punk.' So when some say they are Christian pop punk and others pop punk what is wrong with having 'punk rock' in the lead? That is more neutral and accurately describes the band, all sources agree on the punk part. I just don't like seeing one genre plucked out of the infobox and put in the lead like that. I see this on wikipedia a lot, a lot of the articles have Christian in the lead directly beside their genre when the band isn't even in the Christian genre, but merely Christians in a band. You don't ever see 'atheist rock' or 'Jewish rock' in the lead just because the members are of that religion. Landon1980 (talk) 05:59, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi RB - check it out - as per the discussion at WT:DYK#Solution for delays in DYK updates, I've created 3 test model template (albeit rudimentary; feel free to improve design): {{DYKUpdateRED}}, {{DYKUpdateGreen}}, {{DYKUpdateYellow}}.
I'm writing a new article, and a few photos I would like to use to illustrate the article, are yours. I noticed that you stated that they could be used on wiki, provided they were attributed to you. What would you suggest I put as an attribute to credit you with the photos.

BTW, I think those vintage racers are the same ones that come down to race at Macon Speedway once or twice a year.
I'm trying to get more pix for our project, but with a dial-up connection, it takes a while to search through them. BTW, why didn't you mention the "super modified" pix you had on flikr? I might have to add another section to the project!!
On the citations, the only place I'm lacking citations is in the history section. Everywhere else has at least 1 per paragraph (too bad most of the sections are only 1 paragraph).
What about the "How to identify" section, or would that be best incorporated that into every section? JLG 2701 20:08, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't understand why you reverted the edit that removed Sprint Cup Series from the article and wikilinked Winston Cup Series directly to it. Could you explain please. Why does the "reader have to know" when Alan Kulwiki never had anything to do with the Sprint Cup Series; he competed in Winston Cup. To include Sprint Cup in this article causes more confusion, not less, especially among those who do not follow NASCAR as I have for the past 20 years. Truthanado (talk) 02:06, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Oh, thanks! I really appreciate that. :) After I recently learned more about the DYK process, I've been submitting a couple of DYKs and helping out with the updates, which I enjoy doing. As for the Matthew West (musician) DYK, I've found that it's certainly a lot easier to start ground-up with an article if it doesn't have much content to begin with, so there's not the initial organization and cleanup that needs to be done. And actually, I've decided to try and aim to get that one to GA level, which would be my first GA, however. There seems to be enough info and reliable sources online to do it, though, so I'm gonna give it a try. :) Jamie☆S93 18:20, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Royalbroil -- Thanks for the note about photos being available for RHPs and RHDs in Wisconsin. It's great that you have been collecting and posting photos for a while now. I think you must have been commenting about my putting photoreq on some of the Wisconsin's 39 sites in List of National Historic Landmarks in Wisconsin, because i focus mostly on the RHPs that are NHLs.
I just quickly reviewed List of RHPs in WI and its related county-specific lists and found one pic, for North Hall at University of Wisconsin, to add to the List of NHLs in WI and to its own article, which i just did. Also, i went through the town articles linked from List of NHLs in WI, and found some photos of historic plaques available for Namur, but i am not really psyched about using any of those. I would prefer a picture of Namur's historic area, itself.
On that List of NHLs in WI, a list of 39 NHLs, could you identify for me any others for which photos are available? I would very much like to add them to their own articles, and to that list.
Also, about the List of RHPs in WI, i would be glad to help convert county sections into table format, as has been done for Barron, Burnett, Polk counties so far. That format is nice because it allows for, and effectively calls for, photos of each RHP. Also it provides latitude and longitude coordinates. I just added a Google map link to the top, so you can click on that and see the locations of all those having coordinates added already. There's a tool available which generates the table from NRIS data, with coordinates, for any specific county. doncram (talk) 16:01, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the rating on my NTPA article. Unfortunately, I'm not close to finishing it. I'm in the process of getting ahold of an NTPA rulebook from one of my neighbors, and searching like crazy for some more pix to complete the article. Once I get the rulebook, it shouldn't take me much more than an afternoon to complete the writing phase.
BTW, what is a "C" class. I haven't seen anything about "C" classes on any of the charts of ratings classes. They all go from "B" to "Start." Is "C" under "Start," or between "B" and "Start"? JLG 2701 16:17, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Hey RB, I've got a peer review open for the Matthew West (musician) article here. Besides a couple of little things that I'm basically done working on, it seems to me that this article is in decent shape for a GAN. Hope I'm not doing this prematurely and that the article is expanded enough and doesn't have any major issues. :) And I'm not sure if the quote box works well or not with the "Musical career" section, since I don't really know a lot about if that type of layout works good with the context, although it doesn't seem like a huge deal. Thanks so much for the help! Jamie☆S93 21:23, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
I'm not sure what I've done to this person, considering they're a new user that I've not talked to, but evidently they have it out for me. "Pflipper73" reverted a relevant edit i made to the Kevin Lepage article, and has continued to undo it each time I've corrected it. Apparently by what they have on their user page (well, had, they blanked it while i was typing this), they intend to undo every edit i make no matter what it is, if it changes something they wrote... after i pointed out the "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly by others, do not submit it" rule to them, they started to remove content from the Lepage article. they've also started to threaten me, though not in any violent way. i would go through and leave the proper warning messages on their talk page, but it's pretty obvious they're not going to listen to anything i try to say to them. could you help out here? i don't know if they've done anything to be banned or suspended for, but just getting them to stop would be great. I'd appreciate it. also probably worth noting that they removed this section from this page here once as well, and is likely to do it again. --MP 103 06 00:12, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi, i added a table to the List of RHPs in WI for Sheboygan County, to accomodate your new pics. Confusing for me was the "Hudson" label in 2 photos, of a house and water tower, probably relating to Henry H. Huson House and Water Tower in Plymouth. Not sure if it is NRIS misspelling or what. On google, I find there is a Gilbert Huson House in Plymouth, which is a bed&breakfast. Anyhow, i created the article to make a place for the pictures and to hold any discussion. Either the article name needs fixing or the pics need relabelling there now. Can you address this? I'll "watch" it, can discuss further there. Nice pics, esp. of the water tower i like that. doncram (talk) 00:25, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

I am trying to keep this terminology uniformed for the political subdivisions of Wisconsin.Otherwise, we would have to make a massive change with all the articles about Wisconsin towns, etc. Also I questioned the accuracy of saying an village is surrounded by a town instead of saying an village is located within a town or is partially located in 2 different towns.Thanks-RFD (talk) 20:39, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Royalbroil. I'm responding to your comments earlier on the copyright issues regarding the images of Francis Prucha. Believe me I understand the importance of copyright. I was hoping that you could help me choose the appropriate copyright. Marquette University does retain the rights to the images, but they are not easily indexed online or accessible. Marquette does require that the photographs are attributed back to the archives, but that is all. I'm looking to contribute a good number of articles to Wikipedia, as I do have access to a vast amount of information in our archives so I was hoping for a few quick pointers, and if you could help me select the right copyrights. Thanks, feel free to respond on my wall if you have time. User:Lib-Archives

The town of Hartford has its own website: [3]. The Hartford, Wisconsin article may have to be redone as a result. This is getting discouraging. People like to edit the various Wisconsin towns article because they are there and that most people would not pay too much attention. My apologies to you and anyone else for any problems concerning the Wisconsin towns merger issues. Please let me know so I can put a Washington County template on the article. Thank you-RFD (talk) 16:16, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
Many thanks for your help. My summer is going okay despite some ongoing health problems but this is working itself out.RFD (talk) 11:52, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

On 3 August 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Lloyd Seay, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Hi! I started 3 articles:Larsen, Winnebago, & Van Dyne, Wisconsin. I do not know if you have photos or not. Concerning a photo about Morris Hall at University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, I do not have a camera to take a photo. I am sorry for the delay in getting back to you on that one. Unfortunately, I have been spending more time at Franciscan Skemp Health with doctor appointments and physical therapy for a painful shoulder impingement.Thank you-RFD (talk) 20:02, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
The website for the Winnebago Mental health Institute is:[4].54985 is the zipcode.The Winnebago Mental health Institute lists Winnebago, Wisconsin as its address.Thanks-RFD (talk) 21:24, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

It's been a month. Thx. 70.108.55.74 (talk) 08:08, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the explanation. Obviously I was confused. — X S G 19:20, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, the redlink you followed was misspelled, so you got "National Diary Shrine." Which, I must admit, I liked picturing. Would it have the nation's most poetic diaries? The most scandalous ones? Just one big symbolic diary? Anyway, thanks for the moo juice! FreplySpang 23:30, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi! I was able to start articles for most of the Roman Catholic Bishops of the Madison, Superior, and Green Bay dioceses that had red links. I also did the article on Archbishop Kiley of the Milwaukee Archdiocese. The only bishop I have not done and I have some relunctance to do an article was that of Bishop Robert Banks of the Green Bay Diocese. Bishop Banks was auxiliary bishop in the Boston Archdiocese under Cardinal Bernard Law. And there was some serious allegations about the sexual abuse scandal concerning Bishop Banks and Cardinal Law. Therefore, I am content to let someone else do that article. One item-I have a pretty good knowledge about the history of the Roman Catholic Church in Wisconsin being Roman Catholic myself so this help alot.I am also part of the WikiProject Catholicism. I enjoy doing this. Many thanks-RFD (talk) 17:52, 10 August 2008 (UTC) One more comment:I would had gotten this done a long time if it was not some editors who objected to articles about Roman Catholic bishops not being notable. So I put it on the back burner for a while. Succession boxes needs to be done, but I do not know how to do that one. Thanks again-RFD (talk) 18:36, 10 August 2008 (UTC) PS-I decided to start article about Bishop Banks-I kept it as a stub. Thanks-RFD (talk) 22:31, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
Sure, I'd be glad to look over the article and leave some peer review comments. And I agree, it can be helpful to get an outside perspective to make sure that all readers can understand the subject, too – myself being one that really doesn't know anything about the sport of drag racing. ;-) Cheers, Jamie☆S93 15:10, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
Hello! I can do an expansion closer to April Fool's Day. Check back with me in March and I will take care of that for you then. Thanks! Ecoleetage (talk) 10:25, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
One of the editors who is new started an article about School Hill, Wisconsin. The title in the article was originally Schoolhill but accordingly to the DeLorme Wisconsin Gazetter&Atlas, the correct spelling is:School Hill, Wisconsin, so I changed it. The editor tried to add a photo but had some problems. I wanted to alert you since this from Manitowoc County.Thanks-RFD (talk) 11:29, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
