Categories (Artintegrated)

In converting your articles from the Wikipedia format, you're now doing a better job of eliminating links that won't be found here at BhamWiki. However, please try to remember to update the categories at the bottom of the entry, too. Thanks. --Lkseitz 06:45, 11 January 2007 (PST)

I dont claim or even want to put up a perfect article. Reformatting for another system can be somewhat daunting. I normally leave that to the experts and I have no claims on that. On the other hand, my strong point BHWP is to add information. I seem to have plenty of that and I feel that that is of assistance. I will try to give you the most updated information that I have and correct to the best of my ability. Other people have excellent editing and article-building skills. I will do what I do best and you guys do what you do best. We should get along just fine. Sweet! Artsojourner 08:30, 11 January 2007 (PST)

Category:Death of brain cancer

• I think "Category:Cancer deaths" is a better formulation than "Category:Deaths of cancer".. and I'm not sure that category will be so large that it needs to be subdivided. What's on your mind? --Dystopos 08:19, 16 January 2007 (PST)
  • Yes, that's a better name. Thanks. I'm writing an entry for Harold Ruttenberg, who died of brain cancer. A previous entry I wrote, Jack Farr, also died of this. I was simply guessing "Cancer deaths" could get to be a really, really big category and perhaps it should be subdivided. It's easier to do that up front that go back and break it down after the fact. But I guess that category will do for now. --Lkseitz 08:36, 16 January 2007 (PST)

Bear Bryant

Thanks for the help with the cleanup on Bear Bryant. I had it almost perfect and clicked the wrong button and lost all my changes. So I went back and re-copied it all from Wikipedia but had to rush through it to make it to a meeting I had to go to. Anyway, thanks as always for all you do. --Wheresdib 14:37, 26 January 2007 (PST)

You're welcome. I hate it when that happens. (You lose all your changes.) --Lkseitz 15:00, 26 January 2007 (PST)

Blizzard of 93

I think it must be some sort of milestone when we have articles I didn't even know we had. --Dystopos 14:05, 28 January 2007 (PST)

Hee, hee. Snuck one by you, did I? :-) Actually, I geared up and did a bunch of web surfing to research it, but when I got down to writing it, I seemed to lose my motiviation, resulting in a stub I never went back to. --Lkseitz 14:15, 28 January 2007 (PST)

Nehemiah's Quest

• Thought you'd like to know that your article on Nehemiah's Quest is getting a lot of hits via Google. Thanks for giving us the scoop. --Dystopos 17:41, 26 March 2007 (PDT)

• Well no wonder; we're Google's number one result for that search term. While the group's own site is much further down. How odd. And I wonder what's spurring those searches? Thanks for the tip. --Lkseitz 07:29, 27 March 2007 (PDT)

Temple Emanu-El

Thanks Lee. I went back and saw that it was too much "personal" and was planning to revise today.

I have an article in the works about Charley Boswell. Next, I have a few more rabbis. --MacroAlan 06:50, 14 October 2007 (PDT)

• No problem, but I didn't do much. Dystopos did most of the work. And just because we touched it doesn't mean you can't come back and make more improvements. --Lkseitz 07:12, 14 October 2007 (PDT)

Megadeath

• Wikipedia's article on "megadeath" is worth a read. I'm somewhat proud of it, myself. --Dystopos 13:05, 16 October 2007 (PDT)

Template for Reservoirs of the Coosa River

• Lee, can you create a template for Reservoirs of the Coosa River, based on the chart at the bottom of the page of the Lake Mitchell article? I'd like it to look it a template before I add it to the Lay Lake article, plus it might tempt me to write the articles for the other reservoirs. --Wheresdib 07:10, 19 January 2008 (PST)
  • How about one for the whole Coosa River? It still needs many additions, but I don't know enough about the river and which features are in the Birmingham district to make them. In addition to what is visible, there's a placeholder for tributaries. --Lkseitz 11:47, 20 January 2008 (PST)
    • Thanks! I didn't think about the dams, that's a great idea. I'll have to look at the maps again, but I think the only one out of the District will be Jordan Lake. --Wheresdib 19:24, 20 January 2008 (PST)

On AAM

I appreciate you making the page for "Alabama Art Monthly." It was definitely a labor of love and a great publication that brought the arts together like never before in the state and it was very much enjoyed but the powers that be decided against it so it went by the wayside since I could no longer afford to foot the bill. --Artsojourner 14:25, 20 February 2008 (PST)

No problem. You wrote the article; I just separated it from Agnes. It started out with "Birmingham" in the name, so it seemed worthy of a full entry. --Lkseitz 14:35, 20 February 2008 (PST)

Linearstone et al

I knew I was procrastinating on cleaning up those articles for a reason. --Wheresdib 08:28, 19 May 2008 (PDT)

• Mikey? That's me. What the heck am I talking about? Well....

"What's this stuff?"
"Some article that needs work. It's supposed to be a valuable addition to BhamWiki."
"Are you gonna fix it?""
"I'm not gonna fix it! You fix it!"
"I'm not gonna fix it."
"Let's get Lee, he'll fix anything."
:-) --Lkseitz 10:25, 19 May 2008 (PDT)

• He likes it, he likes it!!! I was just telling Dystopos last night that if he or I didn't edit those articles soon that you would do it the next time you signed on to the site, and boy was I right!! --Wheresdib 10:45, 19 May 2008 (PDT)

Address

The address you found is a small apartment complex next to the Vestavia Post Office and is the same as the one I found from the State Dept. listing. --Dystopos 09:03, 19 May 2008 (PDT)

• Oops. When you said "residence," it was "house" that came to my mind, not apartment. So when I saw the address right off a major highway, adjacent to retail, and not a house, I made a bad assumption. If I'd looked closer, the lack of parking lot space should have tipped me off. Sorry. (Explains why you'd "missed" it.) --Lkseitz 10:14, 19 May 2008 (PDT)

Dept. of Redundancy Department

• I hereby formalize and make formal your appointment as head of the Department of Redundancy Department by formally naming you as the head of it. The project benefits greatly from your efforts at culling redundancies and removing them, which greatly benefit the project greatly. --Dystopos 08:45, 12 June 2008 (PDT)
  • I concur and agree that redundant phrases and repeated redunant wording is what you have a penchant for, Lee, you are good at it. --Wheresdib 08:58, 12 June 2008 (PDT)
