Feyer

My name is Feyer. I am new to Wikipedia. You can reach me via my talk page. I hope to update this page soon.

Lavrentii Alekseevich Zagoskin

Dear Feyer! First, let me be the first one to welcome you to Wikipedia. Usually, admins are responsible for welcoming the newcomers, but they were too busy, I guess. Anyway, check out all of the wiki-policies with regards to editing and behavior and start contributing! As for Zagoskin, I'll try and find some info on him. I'll save the article under Lavrenty Zagoskin. Just curious, why are you interested in this explorer? Do you reside in Alaska or just doing some research? Cheers!

Re interest in Zagoskin

Sadly, I no longer live in Alaska, but I did spend 5 years there. My sister and her family have taken up residence in an abandoned Yup'ik village called Crow Village, Alaska and this is a place I have visited many times, and as such have become increasingly interested in the history of the area. Unfortunately, written history of the area is virtually non-exisitant prior to the Alaska Purchase in 1867. Zagoskin was one of the very first non-native explorers in the region in 1843, and in fact spent some time in Crow Village referring to it by it's native name Tulukaguagamute. I suspect he has many interesting observations, but references to these are hard to come by. --Feyer 13:50, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Lavrenty Zagoskin

While I was looking around the web for information, I may have misunderstood something about the Zagoskin-Rezanov connection. I'll edit out the content in question. --Merovingian (t) (c) (e) 20:49, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Soapy Smith

I see you lived in Anchorage. There's a restaurant there named Soapy Smith's. You keep taking my link off the Alaska page. Have you even LOOKED at the Soapy Smith website to judge that it is spam? Soapy 04:56, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Oops! I should have read past the headline. Thanks for watching the page. Zagalejo^^^ 23:32, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: Sebastian Schneulle

Shouldn't he get a Canadian flag on the Yukon Quest winners section? After all, that's what we've got Hans Gatt credited to, and he's originally Austrian. JKBrooks85 (talk) 05:37, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

It's not that big a deal compared with the overall article. I'll probably check it with the Yukon Quest media guide, but other than that, I'd say that's fine. JKBrooks85 (talk) 21:37, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Featured article review request

Since you're an experienced hand at editing Alaska articles, I was wondering if you'd have the time to examine Rampart Dam, a featured article candidate I submitted for review. It needs comments, criticism, and support in order to become a featured article. Anything you'd care to offer would be extremely helpful. Thanks! JKBrooks85 (talk) 03:06, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

• Gee, I wonder what event that could be. JKBrooks85 (talk) 22:58, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:05, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
