Hi Bill!

Hi Bill! Glad to hear that there is another Bill working on early Iowa stuff. I like what you have done so far. Bill Whittaker (talk) 00:58, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. I'll probably run out of improvements to make very quickly since I'm only read up on a few aspects of Iowa history.

I saw your presentation on Forts at Wickiup Hill. Nice book.

I'm still not sure how this Talk feature works. I guess you get a notification on your watchlist that I've answered? BillHart93 (talk) 15:23, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

If you wanted me to see it, you typically would put a response on my talk page. Since you are new, I know enough to check your page, I will look here. Have you ever collected artifacts from Iowaville? I'm not encouraging you to do so, but we are interested to see collections of people who have collected there; a co-worker is doing a research project on Iowaville. You can e-mail me if you don't want to talk on WP: william-whittaker@uiowa.edu Thanks,Bill Whittaker (talk) 00:39, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at High-leg delta. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. VQuakr (talk) 18:29, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

NAD83 adopted when?

Thanks for your recent comments at Talk:Meades Ranch, Kansas. Your userpage indicates that you're interested in the history of surveying, so perhaps you can shed some light on an issue with the article. In the lead, I've stated that Meades Ranch was used as the horizontal datum until 1989 (which a source states is the year in which the US government officially adopted NAD83). Is this correct, or was NAD83 generally used before that, and its 1989 adoption just a confirmation of what everyone was doing anyway?

Thanks in advance for looking at this— Ammodramus (talk) 18:47, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
