Joshua Young House, Blue Island
editGreat pic! Meaning the one you just uploaded to List of Registered Historic Places in Cook County, Illinois, for the Joshua P. Young House. Thanks for uploading it. Do you want to go ahead and also start an article on the Joshua P. Young House, and link a larger version of the picture there? I would be glad to help out by adding some semi-standard information available for sites like it that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Anyhow, keep up the good work! doncram (talk) 20:04, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
I've removed the information you re-added as it violated WP:TRIVIA. Please do not re-add miscelaneous lists to articles. I removed the unsourced 'claims to faim', read up on WP:RS and feel free to add the information back as long as you work it in to the main article, again per WP:TRIVIA. If you'd like to discuss this further, i've started a thread at the talk page of the article. Thank you! --MattWT 10:34, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Wilberforce Jones.JPG
editThanks for uploading File:Wilberforce Jones.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
PLEASE NOTE:
- I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
- I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
- If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
- To opt out of these bot messages, add
{{bots|deny=DASHBot}}
to your talk page. - If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.

Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

A page you started (Phoenix (Phenix) Building (Chicago)) has been reviewed!
editThanks for creating Phoenix (Phenix) Building (Chicago), Burnhamandroot!
Wikipedia editor Blythwood just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:
Hey, looks good. I've made a few changes: separated the sections out, written a short intro, and copied in some categories (I got them from articles on other buildings by the same architects.) Hope that's all OK. The one issue is that your references all don't work because the date section only takes numbers. What I would do is delete the lot and insert one new one, using 'refname' to name it. Then use insert named references to copy it into each location you want that reference in. That way you don't have multiple identical separate references to worry about.
To reply, leave a comment on Blythwood's talk page.
