The Mt. Hood records information is relevant encyclopedic information.  Why did you remove it all?  I could see if you wanted it briefer, at the most.  But delete it all?  Also, it is not "promotional".  It is relevant to Mt. Hood mountaineering and the use of my Hood by people, that is, the social history of Mt. Hood.--[[User:Saffron1x|Saffron1x]] ([[User talk:Saffron1x|talk]]) 08:07, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

I recently noticed that you deleted the article about author Jessica Page Morrell.  I started the article and believe it has merit.  I'm relatively new as a contributor to Wikipedia and am still learning the ropes.  You expressed some concern about "notabiltiy," and I will do my best to address that issue.  Would you restore the article? 
Thanks.  [[User talk: Mike Klaassen]]

== Korazim says thanks ==

Hey Aboutmovies :-)
Thanks for your remarks on my english entry of "The million women study". I am now working on translation of a few articles to as many langueges as possible. Attached is the mail I've just posted to the translators community, which explains my motivation best:
 
My name is O.K, from Israel.
I am interested in translation of various articles that fall under the Wikipharma project, specificly relating to women's health topics. The articles need to be translated from english to any other language. My motivation for this activity comes from a concern to women's health worldwide; During 2002 and 2003 two wide scale studies showed clearly that thew medication used to treat menopause symptoms and osteoporosis (hormone replacement therapy) doubles the chances of breast cancer and increases the chances for trombosis by nearly 40%!!
 
I believe that it is crucial for women world-wide to have this information, understand the risks of HRT, and be aware of alternative treatments - IN ORDER TO PROTECT THEMSELVES from the interests of various online players.
 
The articles I would like to offer for translation are:
1. The Million Women Study
2. Women's Health Initiative
3. Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs)
4. Femarelle (DT56a)
5. Hot Flashes
 
Sincerely,
 
O.K.  <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Korazim|Korazim]] ([[User talk:Korazim|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Korazim|contribs]]) 10:18, 7 July 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Infobox Library ==

You added a few months ago the field 'coordinates' to the template of the infobox library, if I correctly inderstood the history page. I've noticed that most pages using this infobox (like most pages concerning a geographical spot) have the coordinates floating on the top of the page, thank to a template like {{tl|coor dms}}, and so even if this second template is included into the first (i.e. into the field you added). I proposed today a [[Template_talk:Infobox_Library|revision/extension]] of the infobox library template, that you might be interested to see and comment about, where I wrote that the 'coordinates' field is 'probably superfluous'. I hope you won't mind. [[User:Clpda|Clpda]] ([[User talk:Clpda|talk]]) 16:48, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

:I have followed the proposal you provided on the template talk page and it works well (example in my sandbox with the Swiss NL). The coordinates are, funnily enough, duplicated on the top of the page but I don't think this redundancy is seriously problematic - who sees everything on a page ? - so, I'll remove my statement about the 'superfluousness' of this field. Kind regards, [[User:Clpda|Clpda]] ([[User talk:Clpda|talk]]) 22:43, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

I wasn't being uncivil to anyone.  Secondly, Oregon's Outdoor industry, believe it or not serves as a Mecca to alot of folks within the industry at large...5 of the largest knife companies in the US are headquartered there as well as a few big players in the fields of optics, firearms, etc.  My opinion is to exclude these businesses smacks of elitism.  But don't worry, i'm not part of your project and don't care to be.  I was improving the articles in question, saw the template on the Leatherman page and added it to the 2 of the others (Kershaw and Gerber, to downplay those two in particular is a mistake, in my opinion).  As Kershaw and Gerber dwarf Leatherman in sales, it never occured to me there was a minimum amount in question until I read your revision.  Even Benchmade made more revenue than the defunct cellphone company listed.  Apologies if I offended.

== Waldo, Jersey City ==

I removed WALDO because there is no such thing. That name was a place holder for an area in downtown Jersey City that was used while plans for the area were finalized. The name has not been used in years.  <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Valeriol|Valeriol]] ([[User talk:Valeriol|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Valeriol|contribs]]) 19:17, 29 August 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:I'm afraid I didn't explain myself: WALDO never really existed, it was only a place holder. The district still exists, but it's know as the Powerhouse Arts District (PAD) and it has a redevelopment plan (the article on WALDO makes it sound like an abandoned area.) I'm going to ask someone with better writing skills than me to write a full article about PAD, I just inserted a stub.
P.S.: I apologize for forgetting to sign my previous message
--[[User:Valeriol|Valeriol]] ([[User talk:Valeriol|talk]]) 19:32, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

WALDO never really existed and the fact that "some" people used it doesn't make any more real. In 2000, when the effort to save the district started, they needed a temporary name to designate the area while the proper studies were conducted. In 2002, when the Urban League Institute did their study, they proposed Powerhouse Arts District (PAD) and the name was adopted. It is incorrect to say that one of the neighborhoods in downtown Jersey City is called WALDO since the term was never intended as the name and few people ever used it. The neighborhood association that represents the people that moved in the renovated buildings is called the Powerhouse Arts District Neighborhood Association (PADNA.) If anything the term WALDO should be referenced in the article on the PAD, but should not have a separate article.

Thanks for responding so quickly. I've been reading through the resources/guidelines for posting. I see the dangers in posting from a self-published source. And though I am the website owner, I am not actively supporting his campaign. I just do the site. ;-) But still, all the conflict of interest, self-published stuff makes a lot of sense. I can see how damaging that could potentially be to someone. I'll make sure to relay that information back to his camp and let them know they need more reliable resources. Thanks again.

Thank you. Yes, you are right. I like them very much, and they encourage me to keep plugging away. I've been meaning to send you a note saying you were right about copyright concerns about the Vera Katz statue photo. I took the photo at a glancing angle, but the Commons editors removed it. They were right, and now I know better. The other thing I've been meaning to ask about has to do with unsourced material. I'd like to finish cleaning up the history section of the [[Westside Express Service]] so I can remove the "needs sources" tag. I've found sources for material similar to the unsourced material or most of it. What's the best approach: (1) discuss replacing the unsourced material with sourced material on the article's talk page first or (2) boldly make the changes? I prefer the "boldly" option because it's much more efficient than a discussion; on the other hand, I'm fairly new to the Oregon project, and I don't want to annoy other contributors.

You offered to help earlier, so I am taking you up on the offer. In an effort to be a better and more productive contributer, I created a new article that I realized was missing from wikipedia. I read the instructions and on creating new articles and read that new users, which I am, who wish to create a new article should first create it on his/her user page first. So I did, but when I was ready to move it, I moved it, then realized I actually moved my entire user page plus talk page with it. So now I have neither, or so it seems.

== Downtown Languages Deletion ==

I must admit that I was a bit surprised to find the article I started last week about a local non-profit group was almost immediately deleted under the not-notable clause.  I understand the need for speedy deletions from time to time, but really.  I have a job, a life and am trying to do a bit of community service here and before I could even finish the article... it was noted, marked for deletion and then removed. I didn't even have the chance to log in a second time to complete it before the marking was up and the article gone.  

I could understand this if there was something objectional about it, but in truth I was just away leading my life.  Nothing notable was put in the article because I wanted to ensure that I wasn't just re-broadcasting the advertisements of the group. Speedy is one thing, but less than a week since the start of the article is something else.  Really, shouldn't you at least allow two weeks for the author to check in again?  Maybe wait a couple of days from the start of the article to see if it grows?  I needed to check the sources of the articles in the papers, get the dates right, etc. 

I apologize if I am in any way rude, but I must admit it has become a chore to even try to add articles to this forum. I would enjoy feedback since I do believe in the general concept of Wikipedia.  --[[User:Lachamann|Lachamann]] ([[User talk:Lachamann|talk]]) 00:26, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

==Extreme Longevity Tracking==

Greetings,

In regards to this:

Ryoung, your edit summaries here and here were inappropriate, see Help:Edit Summary for proper use of the edit summary function. Additionally, it is considered improper to remove tags from articles without addressing the issue raised in some way as you did here, and you may want to be weary of WP:OWN on that article. Aboutmovies (talk) 10:06, 10 September 2008 (UTC) 

Perhaps you'd like to help write the article? Carcharoth wanted me to write the article as I am an expert in the field, but I agree there needs to be more input than just one person. Also, plenty of sources are available, some written over a century ago (and listed at the bottom of the article). One of the purposes of this article is to deflect the notion that "supercentenarians" is a "new" field of study, when in fact it has been studied for centuries, and the modern system of tracking ages based on verification began in the 1870s.

Sincerely,
[[User:Ryoung122|<span style="color:green">Ryoung122</span>]] 02:10, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

I just noticed the similarity, though I read in that book I told you about, ''Historic Salem: an Inventory of Historic Places'' (1987), that the station was built on a template and there are a few just like it still scattered around the country. I didn't find any architect info on the library, but I would assume it was built to a standard plan as well...

It was great to finally meet you! I suggested to Pete that sometime we try to have a clandestine Wikimeetup for lunch at the Rachel Ray-approved Goudy Commons sometime.

So you know that the "Boundless" UO architecture site is totally awesome, despite their trying to spam everything in creation with links to it. Would you be interested in making a template and vetting the link through a WikiProject, maybe ours and the also the architecture project? [[User:Beetstra]] would probably be on-board with such an effort. Have you seen his essay on [[User:Beetstra/Archivists|archivists]]? 

P.S. Yeah, ''The Oregonian'' should at least acknowledge that they are using free images from Wikipedia! The rats.

:I noticed the color scheme likeness between the two, so I figured they at least had the same brick supplier. The station has a little different motif with the columns and the arched/round windows, but I could see it being the same architect. I forgot to check the UO site for library info, does that site have non-NRHP items too? The state's website didn't have the library, nor does Salem list it on the list of historic properties. As to a template, were you thinking a citation template, or just an EL template. Citation template I'd be fine with, but I'm not too sure about EL ones like there are for Political Graveyard and Congressional Bio. They just strike me as attracting SPAM with people seeing them as an invitation to add more links, people tend to add them even if the site is already used as a source, and I'm just generally opposed to helping out the libraries/archives websites after seeing all those posts about abusing Wikipedia. But that's just me. I'll check out the Beetstra link.
:Goudy? Sure its cheap, but is that the best place? Though I do know a judge who says she likes to eat there.
:Update on the picture. After checking it out, I actually did release it under a CC license, so attribution is required, and they didn't. The website directed me to The Oregonian, and I haven't heard back from them yet. So, we'll see what they plan on doing. If nothing else, I can put my law school learn'ns to use and send a lovely cease and desist letter!

== Murray Carter ==

Dear Aboutmovies,

I'm sorry to see that you've voted for my article about "Murray Carter" to be deleted.
It was my first article about a well known (at least here in the Netherlands) bladesmith and first Caucasian that received the status of a Japanese bladesmith. I suspect that since English is '''not''' my native language, I lacked in describing sufficient relevant information about the person to illustrate his importance for the knife making industry and bladesmithing in general. At least I think that is what you tried to make clear to me.

I received help from another knife enthusiast, that '''is''' an English speaking native.
Could you please point out your complaints about the article, so I can adjust this. I understand that writing is all about trail and error! ;)

Sincerly,

== Reporting article for merging? ==

How do I go about reporting article for merging? [[Secure_cryptoprocessor|Secure Cryptoporcessor]] is just a special case/application of [[Hardware Security Module]]. Article itself has dubious references and questionable notability. Please advice.
