Yes some of the links appear a bit boring at first, but they are VERY helpful if you ever take the time to read them.
Remember to place any articles you create into a category so we don't get orphans.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Your website
editHi, I found your page after you had edited the Rockland County page and had just wanted to point out a few things about your website http://www.geocities.com/roadsinnj/
1. Your last three entries are missing "roadsinnj/" in the URL, causing them to break.
2. On http://www.geocities.com/roadsinnj/LowerNewYork/LowerNewYork.html:
- "CR 35A (New Clarkston Road) from NY 59 EB." is really "New Clarkstown Road." Also, I think you were heading westbound at the time you took the photo.
- "Looking the other way now (WB) [really EB], the same intersection except the signage is multipled by 10 or so. Why not a single LGS, or one simple arrow? Why be redundant?" Just a note: that intersection has the only Garden State Parkway trailblazers in New York (ok, there may be one or two scattered somewhere along 45). And, if you had "come up through the bus station" just south of 59, you would have seen a similar assembly, but with two additional signs (for 59 east and west)
- "Bridge over US 6 somewhere west of Bear Mtn." is the PIP southbound overpass, over northbound exit 18, between the exit's divide and the Queensboro (traffic) Circle (named after the nearby Queensboro Lake).
3. On http://www.geocities.com/roadsinnj/LowerNewYork/PartII/PartII.html:
- "US 6 climbing out from Woodbury. From here it treks through the Harrimans, ends up on a short multiplex with the PIP and crosses into Dutchess County. Or is it Westchester?" It's Westchester. Actually, Putnam County sits just to the north of Westchester (and south of Dutchess). The Bear Mountain Bridge toll plaza is in Orange County, though most of the bridge itself is in Rockland/Westchester.
- "In case you didn't know: trucks can't use US 6 east of here for some reason..." This is due to 6's multiplex with the PIP.
- "End of the road for the PIP." (Queensboro Circle) Actually, the PIP northbound runs for a few miles (roughly east) to the Bear Mountain Bridge.
- "Letchworth Village is one of those town-housed communities in Haverstraw." Letchworth Village was a facility operated by the New York State Office of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities [think lots of residents housed in wards] and is not a hamlet in Rockland. It's pretty much closed, now.
- "...That was fast. Traffic that's NYC-bound (or Mallbound, like me), exit here." Actually, if you want to head to New York City, it's shortest to continue on the parkway south to the GWB, rather than take the Thruway through Westchester.
Happy trails. -HiFiGuy 20:00, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
I saw that you had created Category:Historic townships of Bergen County, New Jersey and wanted to express my appreciation and amazement at your interest in the subject. You seem to be an ideal candidate for Wikiproject: New jersey, an effort to fill in the holes and expand details regarding all things New Jersey (including roads for all roadgeeks). Let me know if I can help with anything and welcome to the effort. Alansohn 02:44, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Suzanne Hinn page nominated for deletion.
editI've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Suzanne Hinn, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Suzanne Hinn. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Il92.jpg)
editThanks for uploading Image:Il92.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Family name categories
editI noticed that you recently created categories for certain Chinese surnames. You may not be aware that these were all categories which were already deleted back in December 2006 after an extensive debate. You may wish to participate in the current deletion debate here. Kindly do not recreate any more similar categories in the meantime. Happy editing! Ohconfucius 03:50, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

No content in Category:All Grown Up! episodes
editHello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:All Grown Up! episodes, by TTN, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:All Grown Up! episodes has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:All Grown Up! episodes, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Category:All Grown Up! episodes itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 01:43, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
I notice that this category you created is unpopulated (empty). In other words, no Wikipedia pages belong to it. If it remains unpopulated for four days, it may be deleted, without discussion, in accordance with Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#C1. I'm notifying you in case you wish to (re-)populate it by adding [[Category:Smart Guy episodes]] to articles/categories that belong in it.
I blanked the category page. This will not, in itself, cause the category to be deleted. It serves to document (in the page history) that the category was empty at the time of blanking and also to alert other watchers that the category is in jeopardy. You are welcome to revert the blanking if you wish. However, doing so will not prevent deletion if the category remains empty.
If you created the category in error, or it is no longer needed, you can speed up the deletion process by tagging it with {{db-author}}.
Best regards, --Stepheng3 (talk) 23:03, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

The file File:US 6 WB west of Woodbury sign.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
unused, low-res, no obvious use
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
