People and culture of Houston

edit

I did not mean to add back the "five hours" thing in that section. When I was formating the article, we must have had submitted at the same time. When I edit the article for Houston, I always copy and paste the whole text after I revised the article before I submit since I have been having problems with submission. At that time, I was having problems and went back to paste the information that I had before to submit again. I guess when I did this, you had already sent in your revision so your revision got lost because I pasted the text before you sent in your revision. I appologize for your inconvenience.

I read your profile and I was wondering if you are a librarian at the Univerity of Houston? Sorry if that question was intruding but I am just curious. I hope you understood what I said above since it is hard to describe internet actions through typing. UH Collegian

The Waltons

edit

I never saw the later seasons so I didn't know how long it ran, but this paragraph specifically confused me:

World War II deeply influenced the family. Mary-Ellen's husband Curtis Willard, a physician, is called up. He is sent to Pearl Harbor where he dies during the Japanese attack on December 7, 1941. The last scene in the show is the younger Walton boys walking out of their home in order to enlist in the service.

I took "last scene in the show" to mean the last scene in the series, and not that specific episode. Can you reword it to avoid further confusion? Mike H 15:39, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)

"Commonwealth English"

edit

"Though an American, he feels that American English spelling is a hurdle to global communication and advocates the adoption of a worldwide standard for English spelling, especially on the Internet. This is why in articles he originates, he uses spelling that would be associated with Commonwealth English." Well, good for you, but believe me, living in Australia as I do and having been educated both here and in Canada, and having taught and practised law in Papua New Guinea, I will be extremely impressed if you can figure out what "Commonwealth English" is! We're just as confused down here as they are in England itself over what is "British" -- or "Commonwealth," if you prefer -- spelling; and the Wikipedia article on the question isn't much help! Masalai 08:48, 5 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Well, "colour" and "centre" are all very elegant, and "counsel" and "license" for verbs but "council" and "licence" for nouns do make a great deal of sense, but I assure you that British English is as confusing as American English is! The poor old Borders bookshop here in Brisbane committed the howler of spelling its sign over the funny books section "Humourous," and it took them a good two weeks to fix it. And the Wikipedia discussion of the differences among the Cth countries' versions of it is pretty deficient -- "programme" is as rare in Australia as it is in Canada, and "waggon" and "gaol" have disappeared as comprehensively in England as in America. Masalai 17:14, 5 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Evensong

edit

How vital is it that it be "San Francisco, California [sic]"? I don't think anyone is likely to be confused about the possibility that the reference is to, say, San Francisco, Ireland, or San Francisco, Saskatchewan. Masalai 08:56, 5 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

You're welcome (to use a decidedly un-Australian phrase). I've amplified your article on evensong somewhat -- maybe we could discuss it privately before we get into a back-and-forth editing thing, though I doubt I've said anything you'll find very contentious given that you describe yourself as a high church Anglican -- which must be rather a rarity in Texas, surely! Masalai 17:09, 5 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

On reviewing your article further (as I mentioned, I have added the odd tidbit here and there) I am puzzled by your mention of Healey Willan as a composer of Evening Service settings (as they are called). Plenty of masses and motets but no Evening Services that I can think of, and I'm pretty familiar with his canon, having been an Anglican cathedral organist in my time. Can you enlighten me? Masalai 15:03, 6 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Ah, OK. I blush to confess that I had been unaware of Willan's Magnificat and Nunc Dim. (that is in fact what an "Evening Service Setting" is), and I have spent many an hour in St Mary Magdalene's, the parish for which he composed the bulk of his service music, and the various other Toronto parishes where Willan is something of a secular saint. Not sure if this famous line of his will have reached you down in Lone Star country, but as to the arguably mildly specious claim on Willan by Canada, he was fond of describing himself as "English by birth, Canadian by adoption, Irish by extraction and Scotch by absorption." Shall we do an article on Mattins now? The one on "matins" isn't Anglican-specific at all. Largely of historic interest these days but, historically, very significant indeed. There's also room for an article on the Presbyterian Book of Common Order morning service which was the norm in Presbyterian, Methodist, Congregational and Baptist churches worldwide till fairly recently. Masalai 17:06, 6 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Mattins/Morning Prayer

edit

Dear Rockhopper -- As we discussed, I have ventured a first draft of an article on the perhaps now of historic-interest-only service of Morning Prayer. Why don't you take a look at it and offer your suggestions for building it up to appropriate standard, as I have done for your article on Evensong. I will look forward to hearing from you on this. Regards from Australia and Canada. Masalai 02:50, 7 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Improvements to Cathedral Church of St Matthew, Dallas

edit

Rockhopper, thanks for the great edits on the cathedral! Very nice and clean!

I do have a few questions, though. (Keep in mind I am new to Wikipedia, so these may be stupid.) Also, I note that you are an Episcopalian, so this is excellent.

1) I notice you struck the comments about Anglican communion and Province VII. Is this because a reader can learn that information by going into Anglican Communion or diocese and learn that information there? Is that what is meant by being redundant? I thought that it was important to kind of lay out the geography of the church - its city, diocese, province, national church, and association with the Anglican Communion. But if all that is redundant, then I think I'm getting the hang of Wikipedia. Also, if I'm catching on correctly so far, I wonder if the first time I use the word diocese, should I use this link, as this jumps directly to a definition that includes the province business: Dioceses of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America.

2) Also, you struck a lot of text about the dean, interim dean, acting dean. I was thinking that it is important to delinate that this particular church's leadership is not a standard dean, and so I made an effort to try to define how this process works. Is this just not necessary? Or if so, should I have gone to the Dean (religion) section and put something there to define the difference between dean, interim dean, and acting dean?

Further, should I on the St. Matthew page put something there that indicates current leadership is under an acting dean?

3) You and another person have edited categories. I had thought it would be great to have as many relevant categories as could be determined. I went to many church articles and discovered at least ten categories that I thought were relevant. How does one determine which categories are relevant and which are redundant? The other person deleted some categories, and changed the way the name appeared in those categories. I clearly do not understand categories. Could you explain?

4) I think I'll write a Diocese of Dallas stub. Would love for you to check it out when I am done!

Thank you! Pls email me if you wish - contact info is buried on my user page.

Thank you for answering my questions! I had on my cathedral red apron last night and served up some delicious pancakes for our supper! I love ths wonderful old tradition. But then, I love all old Anglican traditions.... Sarum blue, by the way, is the color of the scapulae that many of the vergers in our diocese wear. Cathedral vergers (which I am) have red piping so that the bishop and clergy can tell where we are from!
I made a page for the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas. Can you access it? Would value your opinion. P.S. Have you seen Ft Worth's? Read the text...

Various Dioceses

edit

Hi! Glad to see you occasionally start articles about dioceses! You might want to check out (expand?) Episcopal Diocese of Springfield and Episcopal Diocese of Illinois (. I wonder how long it will be until the list is filled and has no more red links? If Connecticut and Pennsylvania were to get done any time soon, I'd translate them into the German Wikipedia, where I am more active (currently working on translating Seabury).--Bhuck 15:14, 3 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

I might do Quincy sometime. Should probably mention Beckwith's relationship to the AAC in the Springfield article before going on to further examples of the Beretta Belt, though. While I have lived and worshiped in the Springfield diocese, I have no connection to Quincy; probably would put Pennsylvania (where I was confirmed) higher on my list of priorities. Here is an interesting article you might want to read, considering that Texas is positioned politically close to downstate Illinois.--Bhuck 18:55, 3 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
Ah, thanks for clearing that up--a state as big as Texas is bound to be not so entirely uniform as its reputation. :-) I think the Anglican parish in Stuttgart is calling someone from your diocese to be its rector--I'd just gotten confused which of the two dioceses (Dallas or Texas) was the moderate one. The new Stuttgart rector is from the more moderate one, apparently.--Bhuck 07:57, 5 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
As you can see, I discovered Connecticut. I'll see if I can expand the other articles eventually, too. You might notice that I deleted reference to the word "traditional" when discussing conservative vs. liberal in the ECUSA article. This is because I also find conservative = traditional to be a problematic concept. So while I can live with your change (worship-->doctrine), I am not sure it is necessary. Traditional worship might mean using a free-standing altar (connecting to the tradition of the primitive church), while conservative worship might mean celebrating with the back turned to the non-celebrants. Why can't tradition be liberal? :-) --Bhuck 17:27, 9 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
Discovered your addition of Nevada. I've added Pennsylvania and Virginia, and I see that someone else has already done Quincy. Of the nine original dioceses, only Maryland and New Jersey are still red! --Bhuck 14:36, 22 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Snoopy's siblings

Thanks for expanding and correcting this article. I was a bit nervous about it (I found the request for it in the requested merges section, and thought I'ld give it a shot, but I know lots more about European comics than American ones), but it seems that apart from the gender of Marbles, I didn't make too many mistakes. It's often amazing how soon such a thing like this new article is noticed and enhanced. Thanks again! Fram 19:15, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Westbury

Hello, I stopped by to assess the Westbury article for Wikipedia:WikiProject Houston and had a nostalgia attack. I'm a native Houstonian, I grew up just south of Westbury off of S. Post Oak. I went to Madison HS, but I had many friends in the Westbury area. I can remember as a kid how unique Westbury Square was. My mom is Italian and she loved the place because it reminded here of a village in Italy. I always wished I could live in the condos that overlooked the main plaza where the fountain was located. I wish this place could have been saved. Oh heck, listen to me...anyway just wanted to share a memory :) Postoak 05:50, 27 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you're listed as a Wikipedian from Houston. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors from the Houston area, to help with Wikipedia assignments at Texas Southern University. Classes at TSU will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester, and the role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).
