Redesign

[edit]

I'm informing all of the members of The Smashing Pumpkins WikiProject that I recently redesigned and streamlined the WikiProject page (see here) based on Wikipedia:WikiProject Slayer and partially inspired by Wikipedia:WikiProject Alternative music. If anyone sees anything that needs tweaking, or if you think that the whole thing should be scrapped, say so here (btw, there's also an almost exact replica of what I'm telling you here at that location). Thanks, --Brandt Luke Zorn 01:09, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Neenah City Hall

[edit]

Are you sure that the building that I took the picture of is not the city hall? I thought it was either printed on the building, or on a sign. It might be the city administration building otherwise. I don't take 114 through that area often. I can't say with certainty either way, so I will not revert you. If it is not the city hall, then should it be removed from the article altogether? Please respond here on your talk page. Thanks! Royalbroil 17:49, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah...I grew up in Neenah. The clock tower itself has "City Hall" on the Commercial St. (Hwy. 114) side of it. Click on the link to the Local History collection in the Neenah entry and scroll down to the About the Collection paragraph. They built a bank drive-thru on the spot where the old city hall was (http://www.flickr.com/photos/thejdawg/991576730/). The white building you photographed is a neat little historic building across the street, but just an office building. But the clock tower is Neenah's signature landmark, and I always liked the look of that office building so I say the picture stays. By the way, I've enjoyed many of your other Wisconsin scenery shots. Neenah's very scenic...drive down Wisconsin Ave. towards Lake Winnebago next time you are in town.

Thanks for the reply and explanation. I will let things alone as you have suggested. Thanks for the compliment on my other Wisconsin images! I take pictures of whatever interesting I find around Wisconsin. I don't go out of my way (much) for them. I take most of the pictures either as I travel around going to races at tracks around Eastern Wisconsin, or while on vacation. I had driven down Wisconsin Avenue in May, and it was pretty.

I see that you were not properly welcomed. Also, I noticed you have worked on Champ Car World Series articles. I invite you to join me in WikiProject American Open Wheel Racing. We work on both IRL and Champ Car articles, and no preference is given to either. Royalbroil 17:53, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sandbox

[edit]

Hey, just letting you know, you used a bad title for your sandbox, so I moved it. If you want to access it, put this code on your page and you can just click it. --Dnvrfantj (talk) 04:08, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I'll do it for you. --Dnvrfantj (talk) 04:09, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

2003 Lexmark Indy 300

[edit]

Have you noticed the page no longer indicates what car the drivers were driving? I believe that to be a fairly important detail. --Falcadore (talk) 06:49, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the note...I brought the page into the same format as the race of the 2003 CART races...if you want to add the chassis and engines back to the race then all the races should have that level of detail. That being said, the chassises and engines didn't change over the course of 2003 and that information is up on the 2003 season page. Apmiller (talk) 17:42, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That means having read the 2003 season page first. I'm not concerned about the rest of the 2003 season pages, but what about the rest of the 17 Indy 300 pages which do have that detail, now the 2003 race do not match them. As the Indy 300 page is some six months older than the other 2003 races there is some justification that the others should match it. I feel I must reiterate that the car driven is an essential detail, and is in almost every other race report format. --Falcadore (talk) 20:33, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome! People don't say it enough how important each an every one of us are. Like someone's userpage says, articles are here because someone gives a damn. You definitely "give a damn". Royalbroil 04:46, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free files in your user space

[edit]

Hey there Apmiller, thank you for your contributions. I am a bot, alerting you that non-free files are not allowed in user or talk space. I removed some files I found on User:Apmiller/sandbox1. In the future, please refrain from adding fair-use files to your user-space drafts or your talk page.

Redirects

[edit]

Hi Apmiller. In the interests of perhaps saving you some effort in the future, there's no need to replace redirects which point to the correct location, as you did here. In fact, WP:NOTBROKEN suggests such redirects should not be replaced if that's the only change being made to the page. Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 07:49, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi. When you recently edited 2006 Champ Car season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Justin Wilson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Monterey Grand Prix, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page IMSA (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
