now. I was ready to drop this until Hippo43 made the comment that "you are in the minority view" towards me, when in fact wadester and JBC3 both are in the same basic view with me versus just him. I am a little over my head with bringing something to conflict resolution as I have not filled out one before and am not familiar with alot of the technical aspects of wikipedia. I have asked wadester if he's willing to do it, as he's better than I am at this stuff and much calmer about it, but if you dont mind filling it out that would be ok too. I guess all parties have to sign, so I hope you are willing to sign it too. Thanks and sorry I dragged you into this in the first place.

will be acting on it, soon. Work's nuts and when I get home I'm not thinking too well. Feel free to do the H of L list (you know, I don't think I ever had a class there....even in my one semester of undergrad at SU....My grad classes (just finished in Dec) were mostly in the School of Management, first the "Old" one (which was new when I was an undergrad), and then in the new Whitman School at the corner of Marshall and University. Did have some classes at the Maxwell School, in the newer building...Eggers, I think. Anyway, I wouldn't get the H of L for quite some time, I'm sure. Will get up there and get that interior pic, though. It's an easy walk from my office.

Central New York response to Bruno's contributions is "oh, that's where some of our tax money went", as it doesn't appear to have been much spent in CNY. ;) The district map is really nice. Are those overlays hard? I saw someone else do a map like that somewhere and was impressed then, too. On my browser (IE), there's a big blank space under the National Register of Historic Places section header, from halfway down the Gurley Building to the top of St. Paul's Epsicopal Church. Interrupts the flow a little. I'm definitely gonna keep a link to this article on my talk page for inspiration. Thanks for pointing me to it for a read.

infobox I thought Troy should probably change. If there is a reason why some people prefer geoboxes versus infoboxes, then they should speak up and we can have a discussion at the capital District Wikiproject talk page. From the reading I've done infobox settlement seems better prepared for city articles. That's my personal preference, but if the majority of CD wikiproject members prefer geoboxes so be it. Oh and when did

If, with the publication of this newsletter, there are a couple of things that aren't quite up-to-date (like the Collaboration part), you can be certain I am working on it. I will be trying to get a newsletter out on around the 21st of every month. Finally, thanks for the help Ed. Regards, 5633: 733: 2546: 4189: 2149: 278:. Some, that could possibly flare up again. It would be ridiculous to have all those that disagree with my edits or previous disagreements to call upon you to complain and bring their disputes here. I do believe I have been conducting myself within wikipedia acceptable reason when reapproaching such issues but would could use some advice on how to tackle such issues that may crop up.-- 1699:

legitimate, claims that since nothing comes out and SAYS "Siena is in the hamlet of Newtonville" I cant put that it is in the hamlet of Newtonville unless a source says so. Is there some warning or anything you are willing to do so I can put my sources and information back in the article or at least use those same sources and information to keep him from stripping from the

3077: 6543: 1019:"Actually, Speidelj, I admit that you are right in one thing: the link that I provided to you indeed have an form that ask for your name and telephone, but you do not have to fill this form - all you have to do is to go to lower part of that page and to read history of Jabuka. Would you be so kind to do this, thank you: 1046: 3391:

Can you explain how the Fallsburg synagogue has a sukkah with a retractable roof in the basement? I followed the link and it is described that way in the document you cite. But... surely this is an error? After all, it's not a basement unless there is a built space bove it, in which case it cannot

2864:

No problem. I would have preferred to leave it to you, but as I was unsure if you intended to expand it further, and time was running out to submit the tandem hook, I felt I had little choice but to take a crack at it myself. I think it turned out okay in the end, although I guess a little more could

as my account. Hippo43 has resumed his posting of comments on my talk page after several warnings to not send me messages on my talk page and confine his comments to me on relevant article related issues on the relevant talk page of an article. I dont know what to do, I am at my last straw, he is now

1717:

I'm taking the discussion at Siena College to dispute resolution. It said that it could only consider conflicts that already had asked for a third party opinion. I figure I could use that I asked you for an opinion as having tried that step already. I could use your professional opinion on what to do

6021:

My mistake, then. In that case, however, I don't feel such a block was really warranted. Yes, the user has been creating a large amount of unsourced BLP stubs and uploading images without providing fair use rationales, but those stubs usually consist only of facts and statistics and so don't contain

1698:

I dont know what to do now that you have said that the USGS suggests Newtonville. The user Hippo43 is accusing me of vandalism if I change it back again. In my opinion there is nothing wrong with the sources I had and I would like to add the USGS map you have as well. The user says the sources arent

2750:

Wow I'm embarressed! I didnt even notice it and I looked it over and over trying to think "is anything wrong?" and never noticed I put the wrong county! I'm so glad you were able to look it over and catch that. I'm now going back and putting citations everywhere for the article, but I was wondering

4943:

Yeah, D and I were just messing around while we were both online, he on Firefox and I on IE. He did make the space a little smaller by moving just one pic. Not so disruptive to the flow, IMO. Also, I haven't gotten to the Syracuse stuff in earnest yet, but I do greatly appreciate your input and

4684:

Thank you, that was alot of good info to know. Hopefully I can find the time to do some more research on both Washington Park's and get two good articles going. I have found quite a bit of interesting info on the Washington Park in Troy, I dont know if its DYK material but to me it was interesting

essence they are a very simple removal of direct primary source material haphazardly copy and pasted under a title or randomly inserted into a section. I did not really see it as an extensive change, just as a rather obvious fix. If you have a quick glance at it, I am sure you will see what I mean.

2698:

Jeez, JBC3, I know you have issues with me but come on, if you had a problem with me suggesting an infobox to replace the geobox then say so at the article page. I simply wanted to make all city, town, and village articles in the Capital District look the same, since Albany and some others use an

Few Questions. Apparently the names Ayman Ahmed el Difrawi aka Alec Defrawy and other aliases are demanded to be completely removed from Knowledge, and legal pressure is employed by Difrawi's lawyer? Could you please provide detailed specifications about all concerns, so I can address them one by

The reason there are three listed edits is because each edit was explained in the edit summary for each so that other editors may see what I was doing. They are effectively just one edit punctuated to enable greater transparency, and I suppose I could have also done the same on the talk page. In

Thank you for your reply. Am I correct in interpreting the policy you sent me to as saying that as long as I put an image of Clinton Square after the renovations (which must have happened sometime between 1913 and 1925) it is ok to state that the renovations done? A sentence along the lines of

4469:

I love this article. I think I have nothing to offer for improvements, as it looks awesome as it is. My grandfather went to RPI in the late 20's, and it's very cool to think I can go visit and get a sense of what the city was like when he lived there. Your pictures rock, as always. And, my

3410:

This year it's October 2-11. Lots of synagogues have built in sukkahs, rooms with roofs that lift or slide back to open to the sky, or courtyards built so that all you have to do when the holiday begins is to lay fresh branches on top. The requirements for a sukkah are walls and an open roof

4523:

I'm pretty sure that the NPS assigns a reference number when a property is nominated and ruled eligible. But that doesn't mean it's "listed". There are lots of properties that are in "eligible but not listed" status and I think some stay that way for long periods (years or even indefinitely

2703:

stop applying to me personally? Ever since you labeled me a "sockpuppet" you've gone around and decided that anything I do needs to be scrutinized and make a big deal about it. If I want to change a geobox to an infobox what is the big deal exactly, why dont I have the right?

I had thought it would be best, since I had already retired my Camelbinky account, to edit only through IP addresses to avoid Hippo43 and to keep him from editing on my talk page. But now that my "identity" has been "discovered" I have resumed

As someone who only has 33 DYKs (with 34 and 35 in the queue now), I am in awe of your consistent productivity. I am glad to honor your accomplishement and look forward to 300 more (and beyond). All the best,

Cool, good luck with that. On a semi-related note, have you ever considered running for adminship at Commons? You seem to be pretty active (and I enjoy "stalking" your contribs occasionally for new images).

1579: 1225:

Fair enough. It seems you're talking about a full archive. I would simply archive all the discussions that haven't been commented on since 2008. Leave ones that have semi-recent comments on your talk.

that at least I interpret as stating otherwise, to a degree that keeps the talk page in the general public's sphere but gives latitude to the user for more control than an article talk page.

2286:

Camelbinky, you have spread this nonsense around fairly widely. I don't think I ever edited the Loudonville article to say it is a town. Can you supply a diff? If not, you owe me an apology.
