Disambiguation link notification for August 31Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited German submarine U-123 (1940), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Merchantmen.

USC&GS file moveI think if you went to the trouble of renaming the file, you might have renamed it to the name the org had in 1932, not its current name. Just a passing thought. It looks like I could do another move myself, I see that at the top of the screen, but I won't since you didn't, choosing to somehow request someone else to do it instead. ―Mandruss ☎ 20:03, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
Answering previous questionsJust a couple of comments on your WT:NRHP questions from two weeks ago:
Telfair CountyI was just reading the text and looking at the map of the National Register of Historic Places official document for the Telfair County Courthouse and Jail [1]. I wish I had read it before I had gotten my photo of the courthouse. According to the map and description, the Jail is just East of courthouse, the building with 4 chimneys in this Google Street View picture [2], you didn't happen to take a photo of this building also, did you? Photos of both buildings will be needed for an article on the Telfair County Courthouse and Jail as they were both nominated together. I just wanted to ask. --Mjrmtg (talk) 17:32, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

More and more I'm realizing what a massive undertaking the HRHP project is. But I hope it is the best source of NHRP stuff for the general public. If you look at the progress page for counties illustrated, there is an area of red is spreading out in southeast Georgia. I still have quite a few counties that I want to get to. At first I was putting one or two "mug shots" of buildings, plus trying to get better photos of ones that already had photos. But then someone mentioned that people would be interested in seeing the details, so now I've been doing a lot of that and dumping a large number of photos in Commons categories. There are too many of them for me to give a descriptive file name and a detailed description, but they are there (and linked from the articles and county list). And I've been correcting coordinates when I can and trying to make sure that there are links to the commons cats.

Human3015TALK 14:18, 10 November 2015 (UTC) Glynn AcademyYou recently uploaded several images of various Old Glynn Academy buildings to commons. Take a look and see if you agree with me: refnum 11000775 only applies to the 1840 building that was relocated in 1915, then moved back in 2008. See Glynn_Academy#Old_Glynn_Academy_Building. There are only three other buildings that are contributing properties to Brunswick Old Town Historic District. Several Glynn Academy buildings are specifically listed as intrusions (non contributing) to the HD. I fixed a few, but there are many others - if you are familiar with the area, can you sort it out? Some of them might be tagged with 79000727, but others should just not be tagged at all. I initially fell into this because two of these had a double pipe in the NRHP template and showed up in a maintenance category. Generic1139 (talk) 18:28, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
You linked to this: November 18, 2011 ... GEORGIA, GLYNN COUNTY, Glynn Academy, SE. corner of Egmont & Monck Sts., Brunswick, 11000775, LISTED, 11/04/11 That isn't enough to narrow it down. The school takes up most of that block plus the block to the south, except right at the SE corner of those streets is a Jewish temple. The closest school buildings to that corner now are the 1840 building (which wasn't at that location at the time of the 1978 HD form) and what is now known as the Glynn Academy or G.A. building - the one built in 1922, #50 on the Brunswick old town HD. But, other than the 1840 building, there are at least two school buildings older than the current "G.A." building. So, without reading the form, I can't tell if it is talking about that one specific building or the whole campus. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 20:23, 10 November 2015 (UTC) Well, there is this sentence in the article, which indicates only the 1840 building: "On November 4, 2011, the 1840 building was added to the National Register of Historic Places.[13]". I know which three buildings are the HD contributors. So it must be the 1840 building on the 2011 form. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 20:30, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
Confederate flag photoHello, Jud: Will you please tell me where the flag is displayed which you photographed and described as the Confederate national flag captured at Fort Jackson, Louisiana? (Noticed from other items on your talk page that you may be a Georgia resident. In the past I lived and traveled in Georgia. Now I'm in Louisiana.) Since the photo appears to be of a museum display case, which one of the museums has this large flag? It would be nice to add the location to the photo file. Thank you very much, Sandi H Floridasand (talk) 08:56, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
Hi, Stone arch bridgeNo, I've not yet seen the form, but I read the stuff at WT:NRHP, so I was already expecting this. The photo is unambiguously taken on the road that replaced the loop; look at 39°22′16″N 87°45′32.5″W / 39.37111°N 87.759028°W in Google's satellite view and you'll see the weeds in the middle of the road, the different color resulting from the brick pavement, and even the shadow from the telephone pole, as the image apparently was taken at the same time of day as my visit :-) So unfortunately, there's no chance that I got the right bridge by accident. Hoping that you can get a picture of the historic bridge when next visiting your in-laws (I assume this is where you were going, given your comment about Angel Mounds up above), because if so, you'll be in the area a lot sooner than I will — I was living in Bloomington IN at the time of the visit, only about an hour away, but it might be years and years before the next time I'm as close as one hundred miles from the site.

MiG 17 photoHello, I would like to use a photo for which you have a license. It would be used only in a Vietnam veteran's oral history transcript to be archived at the San Diego Veterans Museum library.

I was there to make a quick fix and ended up rewriting most of it, it took a while. Re: adding an external links section to host only the commons category inline, I've been interpreting WP:LAYOUTEL to mean don't add an external links section to only hosting the commons link. Others may be as well, you see a lot of the commons box down at the end of an article. That's why I did what I did there. After the rewrite, there was an external link so it made sense to add the commons category-inline. Do you think it is better to add the External links section and the -inline when there aren't any previous external links? Generic1139 (talk) 01:55, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

Photo of Capablanca knight (seem you made it)Hello Sir, First, please forgive my English (which is not my native language), Allow me a question: i start to collect chessmen 6 months ago, and i am still searching for the almost "perfect" knight (to my eyes)... The one that you take photo here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:KnightCapa.jpg he is almost perfect to me!!! May i ask you, if you own this little wonder, to make few photos from front, face, profile, up, and down, if you do not own it, may i ask you where i can find (maybe buy) this great knight...

Georgia NRHPs (and Nebraska too)FYI, I am now working on a batch of Georgia and Nebraska NRHP articles, indexed from User:Doncram/Batch-Georgia-plus, temporarily in Category:NRHP in progress (alphabetically sorted with GA ones first
I noticed there were just 20 new Georgia NRHP articles needed to get it out of the darkest blue color of any states at wp:NRHPprogress, i.e. to reach 630 articles and be 30% articled. With new Camden County Courthouse (Woodbine, Georgia), which I started to make links work at List of courthouses in the United States and otherwise (too bad it turns out the specific NRHP document is not available online, though), that makes just 19 needed. I might plug along towards completing a swath of counties across the top of the state (Gordon needs 3, Gilmer 1, Dawson 1, Fannin 2, Union 3, Towns 2, Rabun 6, Walker 13 (or 4 to do Walker halfway), 31 (or 22) in total to complete), or I'd be happy to work together on any other NRHPs of interest to you. --doncram 21:43, 10 August 2016 (UTC)

chess endgame literatureHi, In Fine's Basic Chess Endings, in the section on rook vs. bishop without pawns, there are quite a few credits to (Maestre, 1939). E.g., for #461 on page 461, fourth line from the bottom. This is the 1941 edition. I have not seen the revision by Benko, which I just learned about on the Chess_endgame_literature wikipedia page. The Chess_endgame_literature page does not list any works by Maestre. Fine's credits are not easy to correlate with his bibliography, given in the Introduction, p. xiv. I managed to run down (Horwitz and Kling, 1851) AKA (Kling and Horwitz, 1851) as referring to a book named Chess Studies in the Chess_endgame_literature page. Averbakh, in Rook v. Minor Piece Endings, gives similar citations but has no bibliography at all (in the English translation, 1978, Batsford). Is the some standard reference for looking up things like this, which is why everyone abbreviates? I could not figure out who wrote what on this page. I see you have edited this page, but I am new on wikipedia and do not know how "Talk" works, so I will not put my email here, but you can figure it out if email is more suitable for responding. Any info is appreciated. Thanks, Allen Avgucsc (talk) 05:40, 22 December 2016 (UTC)Avgucsc
NRHP referencesI'm glad you're developing NRHP articles in Georgia and elsewhere. Your edits at the Smith-Nelson Hotel article, for example, definitely improved it. It's a technical point though, that the fact of the NRHP listing and its date are not attributable to the NRHP nomination document. Sometimes/rarely the listing date does appear in a NRHP registration document, when it is being written up after the fact, but usually it is a nomination, beforehand (and sometimes the nomination does not go through). The NRIS database is good for it though. So usually there needs to be an NRIS reference for that fact, and I am editing the article accordingly. Perhaps you could revisit your other recent articles about this? Or anyhow pay attention to which material comes from NRIS vs. a nomination/registration document. By the way I am sure Georgia has climbed over the 30% quality level, will show when wp:NRHPprogress is updated. :) cheers, --doncram 09:19, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

I put an "anchor" template in the article named "House" specifically to point this redirect at it. The advantage of doing it that way is even if someone (for some unknown reason) edits the title of that section (maybe to at "The" on the front?) the redirect will still work. So I don't understand why your change is better, but maybe you can explain? Is there a policy about these?

Georgia NRHPs encoreHey, our past efforts plus perhaps ongoing contributions by you brought Georgia NRHP coverage up currently to 892 articles (42.3%) and 1,444 illustrated (68.4%) and to 36.3% on the "net quality" index. Wow! I am back to editing some Georgia NRHPs again some, just for the heck of it, including in National Register of Historic Places listings in Charlton County, Georgia and in National Register of Historic Places listings in Lowndes County, Georgia. Maybe I can fill in the wp:NRHPPROGRESSMAPS' "Articled" picture from the bottom up, for a bit, but i'd be happy to detour to do stuff where you might be visiting in the future again, too. I wonder if you went on your planned trips and/or if it is too hot to go on more trips this summer. I also wonder about some way to indicate where improved photos or more photos would be helpful, in a way that would put them onto a "photos wanted" list. E.g. North Patterson Street Historic District in Valdosta, Georgia in Lowndes County is one where more photos would help, and there is only one available (by another contributor). Cheers. --doncram 01:00, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
Chess is an expression of PiGreetings Sir. I would like for you to take a closer look at the formula that I came up with that accurately determines the value of the pieces and squares. If you don't want to purchase my book "True Chess" you can watch my 8 minute video on you tube entitled "Chess is an expression of Pi." I know that this may be difficult to accept initially but a thorough investigation of the matter should make it easier. I have an AAS. My major was Automotive Technology. I can appreciate a true legend. Cool car my friend. Please leave a comment on my page after you take a look at the video or have read the book. Thank you SirMyDiametrical (talk) 16:41, 20 July 2017 (UTC)
CommentsThanks for your reply Sir. The tournament results from 2011 were due to my personal protest as the directors refused to follow their rules where I was concerned. See me at any of the sites where I play and you will experience my true chess strength. You made some 'matter of fact' statements without providing any substantial proof or evidence that refutes the formula and or supports your views. I feel and I think are not sufficient. Nevertheless, all feed back is good feed back. A couple of well known IM's had a completely different take on the formula. I'll save all the comments that I receive as one day they will no doubt provide great entertainment. Peace and blessings be upon you Sir. MyDiametrical (talk) 20:37, 20 July 2017 (UTC) I've run across you recentlyat List of monuments and memorials of the Confederate States of America and am having hissy fits about what is going on there and you seem to be on a somewhat parallel track.

You know, I got in the NRHP program by accident. I went to the radio museum in St. Marys, GA. Across the street and about a block down, I photographed Orange Hall (St. Marys, Georgia). I wondered if the St. Marys article had a photo of it. That is when I discovered the NRHP project (on the talk page), and found the county listings, with many photos needed.

This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here. If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

If you were going to be able to visit and take more pics, I would be glad to expand it further to cover more specific buildings mentioned in the NRHP document, e.g. the U.S. post office, a Queen Anne-style house at 87 Griffin Street, various churches, city cemetery, etc. As with many other Georgia NRHP historic district documents, there is not a complete list of properties included though, and the online-available stuff is missing 5 sketch maps that were part of the nomination, unfortunately. But it is still a case where more expansive coverage of a historic district is possible. I'm not always sure whether adding a table is worthwhile; here i think it sort of helps though it is not wonderful. Best when you are on board to take separate pics of most (or all?) major resources in a district. At my Talk you mentioned getting back to Lawrenceville Street Historic District in McDonough very soon or in May; should I table-ize that article and/or expand the MHD table, for you to lay in more pics? --Doncram (talk) 00:32, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

I'm also planning to move photos of artillery to Category:Gettysburg National Military Park because it already contains artillery photos. For these, I also plan to add Category:Cannons in the United States and the appropriate gun type category. RobDuch (talk·contribs) 19:12, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

Since you're a Georgian, would you happen to have photos of monuments at the Chickamauga/Chattanooga NMP?

I haven't seen you comment on this, but since you started the article in 2008 I'm interested in your opinion. @MaxBrowne: raised concerns at WT:CHESS#Checkmates in the opening. I thought maybe we could ride it out and simply wait for the concerning edits to subside, but now I'm not so sure. Quale (talk) 18:43, 8 February 2020 (UTC)

Olde Pink HouseI had been waiting for a reply from an architectural historian in Savannah, and got one yesterday. It's a 20th-century copy of the Pink House, at the northeastern corner of Forsyth Park: https://www.google.com/maps/@32.0699105,-81.0939161,3a,75y,0.02h,90.7t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1si8nfO4jyjrPq0mzsb7E-tg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 - Seasider53 (talk) 12:53, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Mercer HouseGreat shot of the door. Looks like whoever did the recent paint job did a terrible job considering it spread to the brickwork around the windows. Not sure the brickwork was actually worked on either. - Seasider53 (talk) 11:41, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

Butler IslandLike Jekyll Island and Walter Rogers Furness Cottage, this article would be much poorer without your terrific photos. I wonder how important the Butler family was in establishing/maintaining ties between Philadelphia and tidewater Georgia? I have a friend who grew up in Georgia whose schoolteacher mother thought Owen Wister's novel Lady Baltimore captured the feel of the state better than any other. I guess he knew it well. Wister was a member, and also wrote a history of the Philadelphia Club, this city's most exclusive men's club. Coincidentally, the club's building was built as the city house for Thomas Butler, Wister's great-great-uncle and Major Butler's only son. Major Butler disinherited Thomas and left his plantations to his 2 male grandsons, provided they took "Butler" as their surnames. Best, == BoringHistoryGuy (talk) 21:10, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
@BoringHistoryGuy:, yes the house that is on Butler Island now was built in 1927, see this. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 05:14, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
A couple points, some taken from sources I don't have full confidence in:
I've probably delved too deep into the Butler family, but it seemed helpful in explaining how and why things happened. With Rhett Island and Butler Island, I wonder if Margaret Mitchell ever visited?

I would like to ask you to move it to the talk page (even though I know it's almost a month old), in order to keep the project page 'clean', and also I'm not sure if a user other than the author can do that, hence I'm writing you. Thanks. Sophia91 (talk) 17:43, 15 July 2020 (UTC) I wanted to get someone else to look at some recent changes. I meant it for the talk page.

Hope the mosquitoes aren't eating you alive down there on the coast. Your remarks about the long footnote are correct, as far as I can tell. I haven't (yet) found the entire quote intact online. However, the content is unquestionably correct, and actually a rather profound insight into the establishment of federalism in Georgia. It is the (unattributed) work of an academic, or perhaps jurist, with a highly developed understanding of the subject. It is a valuable dissertation, and somehow should be preserved. But I would agree there is probably a better way to go about that, than the footnote format. If you agree with the idea of preserving this information, I would like to hear any suggestions you might have. One thought was to reproduce this statement as a sub-chapter of the article, then to reference each separate point so as to validate and preserve the validity of the statement in whole, by validating each part. Again, open to any suggestions you can put forward. When are they going to cut up that car carrier? Gulbenk (talk) 15:49, 21 July 2020 (UTC) About Promotion ruleHi, Bubba73 I am the guy who edited the line 89 in "History of Promotion rule(chess)". I am writing you to know is there any regulation violence, misleading content, or fake fact about what I wrote? It's my opinion and a lot of chess players in my community have agreed that without promotion rule, the stalemate rate would increase significantly. Maybe I am wrong with the thought Wikipedia is the place to share the opinion. I have no proof, no evidence about what I said but my thought. I also have a question about the line "The original idea was that a foot soldier that advanced all the way through the enemy lines was promoted to the lowest rank of officer." How could it be? Is it fact and if so, how about evidence? On the battlefield, when two sides advance toward each other. Then the battle will end with the result of one side win, lose, retreat, or destroyed completely. If one armies surfer heavy casualty and has to retreat, the phrase "advanced all the way through the enemy lines" means nothing but it is all about the running competition? If so, how many officers can be born out of one battle? Yeah, with that thought, in medieval warfare, a lot of people who survived the battle can be officers as well. Aftermath, we would call the Medieval Warfare is the officer warfare? Because there were a lot of officers on the battlefield who were born out of the previous battle? And the thing make I laugh to write this is the number of officer definitely be exceeded the number of other units! Whoa the logic! Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.161.32.170 (talk) 11:04, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
