It Takes a Rim Village - Oregon COTW

Greetings WikiProject Oregon member, time for the next edition of the Collaboration of the Week. Thanks to those who assisted in improving a few articles over the last month. For May Day edition of the COTW (in Wikipedia time its May already), we have by request Rim Village Historic District and the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (AKA OMSI). Rim Village just needs some refinement to get to GA, while OMSI needs a lot of work in general. As always, click here to opt out of these messages, or click here to make a suggestion for a future COTW. Adios (on May 5th that is). Aboutmovies (talk) 04:44, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

Question

I am a bit fuzzy on the matter because I don't often edit election pages on Wikipedia, but I realized you removed information about a third party candidate (Michael Meo) on the United States House of Representatives elections in Oregon, 2010 article. Does this mean that third party candidates are not notable or that you were scraping the article to include third party candidates later? Thanks. --Brian Halvorsen (talk) 07:19, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Actually, that was unintentional. I was scrubbing it using the list of candidates who are actually registered for the May primary--but of course that doesn't include third-party candidates who aren't in the primary but will sign up for the general election. However, this does bring up the WP:CRYSTALBALL issue: Meo technically isn't a candidate for November election yet because candidate filings for that election haven't happened yet. I'm sure Meo will register, but really, should we list all these people who say they are *going* to sign up but haven't done so yet? He may change his mind, or it may turn out he's ineligible for some reason. For now, I put him back in the list, but it's an issue we should think about. I see there are several other candidates who are planning to file for other parties in the same situation. Anyway, it was an inadvertent deletion, so thanks for noticing. --Esprqii (talk) 16:52, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

No problem, and thank you for the clarification. --Brian Halvorsen (talk) 20:39, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Category:Oregon Sports Hall of Fame

Yesterday I spent several hours populating a new category for inductees into the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame, using the precedent of the Category:Oregon Sports Hall of Fame and others. My work was speedily deleted by a robot acting on a precedent from last February where the same category was deleted with very little discussion. The original nominator makes reference to a guideline, Wikipedia:OCAT#Award recipients, which seems to contradict a great deal of consensus practice by Wikipedia editors. Certainly I believed the work I was doing was valuable to the project. I'm trying to get the latest deletion reversed long enough to re-open discussion. See Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2010 May 23#Category:Alabama Sports Hall of Fame. I'd hate to see the Oregon category deleted on the same basis. --Dystopos (talk) 17:20, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Beverly Cleary School

Hi Esprqii, thanks for reviewing the entry. I'm confused why you've deleted some entries and left others, since everything has been duly referenced. In fact, some of the stuff you deleted was information that I wrote for the BCS website, which I administer! Most of the PPS info I referenced was written by the principal of the school specifically for the PPS site. So, I'm not sure really why any of that stuff was deleted. The information about the history of the buildings is scarce and very hard to find; after your initial editing I went and reviewed and cleared out 75% of what was there and left in references. If necessary, I can just leave that information as external links at the end, but I would really like it to be in the article. How does one go about getting and showing permission to use such information? Do I just have to let you know if I get permission from PPS to use the facilities information?

Portland Parks Photo Blitz!

	<font=3> Want something to do this weekend? I propose a WikiProject Oregon weekend photo blitz! Let's try to fill up the List of parks in Portland, Oregon as much as possible by getting out and taking our own pictures or finding ones online that can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. The pictures uploaded will not only benefit the aforementioned list, but they will be used for future articles about specific parks and will fill up the Parks in Portland category over at Commons. Get your cameras ready! --Another Believer (Talk) 20:55, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Interested in creating a Don Burness article?

Hi - I saw that Don Burness is a redlink on your page and wanted to see if you might be interested in creating an article (or even a stub) for him. Some of us at WikiProject College Basketball are trying at to create articles for all historical consensus All-Americans prior to the start of the college basketball season. Burness is a redlink on two college basketball templates (1942 Stanford basketball and 1942 NCAA Men's Basketball Consensus All-Americans). Seeing as you have some interest in Stanford athletes - are you up for it? You did some really nice work on the 1938–39 Oregon Ducks men's basketball team, by the way. Thanks for reading! Rikster2 (talk) 02:10, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. And, yes, any "pre-consensus" articles you'd like to complete would be greatly appreciated - we want thos done in due time as well. Thanks! Rikster2 (talk) 00:59, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

sigh

check this out, thats the IP that was identified by the "nice couple" in the brett salisbury deletion discussion as being a nephew or something. source says he came third, editor changed it to first; guess we're going to have to keep an eye on this article. WookieInHeat (talk) 01:58, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

after looking at the deletion discussion again, it is the same IP as the couple. WookieInHeat (talk) 03:54, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm watching it. There has been a long history of attempts to get this article written, as you know. I hope now that there is a legitimate article, it will be easier to keep an eye on things. --Esprqii (talk) 17:07, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

BTW, thanks for cleaning up the article after consensus on the talk page. also wanted to let you know i changed the transform diet ref to another website (provided by anon in deletion discussion) which is less self-serving than the actual transform diet website. ref might not meet WP:RS, but neither did brett's website. feel free to revert if you disagree.

Salisbury On Wikipedia..

Salisbury was not 3rd in total offense. He was 3rd in total passing offense. The team as you will read on the reference is 1st in total offense with 581.6 yards per game. Please re read that. Total passing offense is different that total offense. make the correction or I will correct it again. Here is the beginning of the paragraph...

The 1993 football team set a school record for most wins in a season with nine, finishing the season with a 9-1 record with the only loss coming to Minnesota-Duluth 29-28 in the final game of the season at the Metrodome Classic. The Wildcats had a high-powered offense, ranking first in NCAA Division II in total offense (581.5 yards per game), second in passing offense (379.9 ypg) and scoring offense (44.8 ppg). Defensively, the 'Cats ranked 16th in total defense, allowing just 256.0 yards per game. Here is the source: [1]

You must be clear on total passing offense and total offense. Total offense the team lead the nation with 581.6. Total Passing offense is different. Passing is not mentioned in that sentence corrected therefore it will be again and again. If the wayne state athletic department got it wrong let's not make the same mistake on wikipedia. Thank you —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.160.210.32 (talk) 03:24, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

hi esprqii, please see the same discussion with the anon at my talk page. WookieInHeat (talk) 03:29, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

I replied on WookieInHeat's talk page. --Esprqii (talk) 17:08, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Our Final Word on Salisbury

Mr. Esprqii, we will no longer participate on wikipedia. WookieInHeat as you will see has made changes to fit her or his agenda. I would kindly asked you to look at them. We were wrong about total offense and told Wookie that. Now the issues are getting absured but the administration is planning on banning or removing brett salisbury. No more. We are out. Please help and look at page. We would ask you to use your good judgement and to keep in mind Wookie In Heat has been on a mission to prove salisbury unnotable. Thank you. We again appreciate you making his name where it belongs but will no longer be involved in any more discussions.

thanks for your comment on my talk page. wasn't sure if you were aware that the anon's latest messages were responding to this action at ANI. WookieInHeat (talk) 07:15, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Mr. Esprqii in need of your help

This is the latest from WookieInHeat. What is she pulling and who exactly does she think she is? Please prove how what she wrote has anything to do with what she is talking about. 1. The servers are not the same 2. The Tranform Diet according to the page was developed in 2008 3. The "vogue" page or whatever it is was developed this last week as vogue is putting out a list of their people...regardless, why does she have the power to remove what you approved? Socketpuppetry? Have you ever seen such madness? This is so ridiculous, I can't believe it. It's no longer about Salisbury it's truly she doesn't want you to have the last gasp at changing what you already proved. The guy is a model, he played football. What more does she want? and how does the bottom relate? Please make sense of this to me and others. I will seek to remove her as I have now people with which we both know at the University of Oregon who will help. She is not hear to help but to harrass. We can make a liable suit against her and I will do it. She is making a mockery out of any article regardless of where it came from. No modeling career? She was claiming for days no football career to. I know you know who Brett Salisbury is/was. He played in your city. Can you take charge of this. I would like an answer to the copy and paste of the two websites years apart that have nothing to do with anything as well as the servers are different. She is a fraud and continues to delete and remove what you correct. How can she do this? She cannot. Look at this and explain the similarities? How. This is a joke. Ridiculous. Different phone numbers different states, different addresses, years apart with different servers? Are you kidding me Wookie In Heat? This is criminal.

DNS Servers: b.ns.interland.net a.ns.interland.net the two physical addresses are about five hours apart according to google maps. looks like mr. clayton opened the website on september 30th, during the course of the recent deletion discussion; wouldn't surprise me if he also managed the transform diet website as well. five days later this comment was made by the IP editor on that deletion page:

(and what is the point Wookie? 5 hours apart? and?...?...Transform created 2008, The supposed vogue was created recently? and? ABSURD. take this up with you administration please because she is a nuissance and has no case. She is simply mad that you corrected her with the proper information including the last news article. I am now taking this personally. As should you John.)

As for the author not being a model? LOL really? Have you read GQ lately? You might want to try that. He is with Elite in Atlanta call them. They will confirm it. He is also being listed as the top 25 models ever by Vogue. Top25malemodelsever.com ... Annoying people. Just get this done and move on.
