Stephen R. Donaldson article

Hello. Just a note that I changed your edit on the Stephen R. Donaldson page: from Columbia University to the College of Wooster.J.R. Hercules 00:03, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Harvard

Nice picture you added to Harvard Museum of Natural History. I see you are doing some work in Harvard-related institutions as am I. My opinion is that they are at least as encyclopedia-worthy as a reality show contestant or the episode of some animated series, and I am guessing you agree. I made a few links in the Glass Flowers article and will be doing some more work to make sure everything notable among Harvard museums is covered. It's nice working with you; best wishes. ◄HouseOfScandal► 23:48, 10 December 2006

Yeah, I was reading something you'd done over on the CC page, and knew it was you the second I saw the initials.

Biography pages

When putting up a page on a person, is it best practice to use social names such as Mr. or Ms. in the name of the article, or only the name? WilsonjrWikipedia 22:54, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Nagoya/Boston Museum of Fine Arts

Thank you for starting the article on this museum; I'm actually kind of surprised that there wasn't one before. As a former MFA intern who just might maybe (fingers crossed) be moving to Nagoya soon, I'm quite interested in stories and histories surrounding both museums. I am especially interested in your comment that there is some sort of conflict between the Nagoya curators and Boston administrators over what they will show. What's your source on this? I ask not because I'm challenging the statement, but because I'm quite curious to read more about it. Thanks. LordAmeth 22:45, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

National Geographic Society

Happy New Year Cjs2111...I don't want to keep reverting your Category:National Geographic Society but I am not sure what you mean by the word Organ. Should it be Origins. Thanks in advance for your help. Shoessss 16:27, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

LOL....the only thing I kept picturing was either a heart or liver beating. Thanks for the clarification Shoessss 16:34, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Seperated at birth?

Hi, I noticed that we had similar user names, so I checked out your profile and noticed that the similarities did not end there. We are both from the Buffalo suburbs, both went to Ivy League Universities, both are of Polish ancestory, and both edit wikipedia. I believe that the only logical conclusion is that we are twins seperated at birth. Good luck on the law school apps... --Cjs56 14:28, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

June 2007

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. An article you recently created, Volker Berghahn, may not conform to some of Misplaced Pages's guidelines for new articles, so it will shortly be removed (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do and please read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. A tag has been placed on Volker Berghahn, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Misplaced Pages guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

You might particularly want to read up on academic notability guidelines in this case. Coren 01:19, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey there. You did a good job establishing the notability of Volker Berghahn, but be aware that you should never remove a {{speedy}} tag from an article you wrote yourself. A passing admin will look at the article, see that notability has been established, and remove the tag him or herself. Coren 01:31, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Rename of Casey Blake (the baseball player) article

Hi CJ ... would you have any objection to renaming the article for the baseball player, Casey Blake, as Casey Blake (baseball) instead of using his full name. I doubt that anyone interested in finding his article is going to know to search for him as William Casey Blake. My suggested name is consistent with new naming guidelines for baseball player articles that I think will be finalized any day now (if you're not aware of this effort, you can find the latest draft here. --Sanfranman59 03:26, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick response. I'm relatively new to all of this and don't know how to rename an article. What's the process? --Sanfranman59 03:38, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
