Paige, Texas

Thank you so much for expanding Paige, Texas!

The one issue I noticed in the edit is the reliance on USA.com for school attendance info. I checked Bastrop ISD's zoning maps and found that the Paige townsite is firmly in that district's boundaries. I went ahead and replaced the usa.com info with Bastrop ISD's official attendance boundary maps. In the future it's good to try to get school boundary info directly from the school district.

Thanks, WhisperToMe (talk) 15:40, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

@WhisperToMe: Alrighty then. Thank you for the heads up! It will serve a great purpose while I'm expanding Texas-related articles! Thanks, and have a nice day. Redolta📱 Contribs 04:18, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
You're welcome! In addition to zoning maps/street maps on municipality sites and school district attendance boundaries, you may also find U.S. Census Bureau school district maps and U.S. Census Bureau block maps (showing maps of municipalities and CDPs) useful as well!

What needs updating? John from Idegon (talk) 05:55, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

@John from Idegon: In my opinion, I see the information at the accomplishments section needs to be updated, as only information based on 2013 and 2014 has been inserted there. If some more newer information could be added, than that would be awesome. I should probably have just placed the notice on the accomplishments section. Thank you for asking, and have a great day. Redolta📱 Contribs 15:47, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
Enrollment stats can be updated by a year. I'll do that when I have a chance. It would be much much better if the accomplishments section were eliminated and the info in it rolled into athletics, arts and academics sections. Accomplishments is not a standard section. See the article talk page for further details. The sourcing on this article is impressive. If that's you, kudos! John from Idegon (talk) 18:01, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Talk archive header

I've moved the talk archive navbox you've created to User:Redolta/Talk archive header, as user-specific items generally do not belong in templatespace. – Train2104 (t • c) 23:24, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

@Train2104: Understandable, thank you, and have a great day. Redolta📱 Contribs 00:26, 4 July 2017 (UTC)


Hi. Thankyou for your participation in the challenge series or/and contests. In November The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There will be over $4000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. If this would appeal to you and you think you'd be interested in contributing new articles on women during this month for your region or wherever please sign up in the participants section. The articles done may also count towards the ongoing challenge. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate and raise money to buy books about women for others to use, this is also fine. Help would also be appreciated in drawing up the lists of missing articles. If you think of any missing articles please add them to the sub lists by continent at Missing articles. Thankyou, and if taking part, good luck!♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:52, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
