The Milk Pail

And they weren't even next door. There was Barron Plumbing and Electrical, and the sushi and Mexican place, etc. between them and the Shockley site, which used to be a stereo shop and a waterbed store, too. I frequented all. Dicklyon (talk) 05:04, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

I see from your early editing history that you were likely an Egan/Almond student. My house backs up to Egan, and my daughter went there. Dicklyon (talk) 05:08, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of File:1 litre of tears.jpg

The file File:1 litre of tears.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Image seems to be fan-made. No other version of this image exists and the original source is missing.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. lullabying (talk) 00:23, 14 December 2018 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Update MAX Light Rail map file

Hello! I noticed you were the creator of this map file for the MAX Light Rail system, so I was wondering if you could hopefully update it to show the MAX Red Line's extension to Hillsboro beginning service today? And also updating the three stations that were also renamed in conjunction with this, shown here. Thank you! OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 06:20, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

It's also a bit out-of-date since both the C and F lines were both discontinued in 2021 and 2020 respectively. Hopefully this isn't too much of an ask to update it as well? Thank you!
