Bangor International Airport article

Hi Buskahegian- Just an FYI regarding your first editof Feb 28 to the above article--I'm no authority here, but I think you'll find that the word 'international' in an airport's name means simply that it has capabilities for receiving international traffic, for example customs and immigration staff and/or facilities. Say hi to Maine for me. -Eric ^talk 19:29, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Nice edit

I like this extensive edit for the article History of Maine. Good work. GRBerry 03:40, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Re: February cookies

Of course they're still good, they've been refrigerated since then. :-)

If we were in Florida, there'd be problems...--uɐɔlnʌɟoʞǝɹɐs 17:41, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Francis Carr

Hi, can you give details for the reference number 2 and 3 in this article. The reference only shows Ibid, it will be better to expand it to include author's name etc. Thanks. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 01:28, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Bangor, Maine article size

Hello, I just noticed your comment at Talk:Bangor,_Maine#Article_size:_too_long and thought I'd reply. Let me know what you think. Best wishes, Baileypalblue (talk) 05:25, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Categories

Hi there,

I noticed you've added both Category:People from Maine and Category:People from Bangor, Maine to some articles. If the particular city has a category, in this case Bangor, only the city category should be used. I've been going through Category:People from Maine and trying to sort it as best I can.--TM 16:45, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Camp Etna

Hello Buskahegian Do you have any citation other than the camp's own website to justify reposting this encyclopedia information back. Please review Wikipedia:Notability before reposting this material.Dkriegls (talk) 17:56, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Ku Klux Klan in Maine

Thank you very much for starting Ku Klux Klan in Maine. I was thinking of starting the article myself, but I am sure that the one you started is much better. I have been saving this article as a source. Anyway, keep up the good work and let me know if there is anything I can help with.--TM 21:04, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your kind words about the article. I've noticed and admired your own work as well. And thank you for the article you sent, which I'd not seen. I'll incorporate some of the points it makes - particularly about Jewish and NAACP attempts to create an anti-Klan united front - into the main article. I did the research partly as a tribute to my grandmother, who remembered being frightened by burning crosses set up on a hill overlooking her Catholic church.

Proposed deletion of Erwin Kreuz

The article Erwin Kreuz has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Cute story, but typical case of one event. Does not meet WP:BIO.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Crusio (talk) 07:11, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Bangor, Maine Notable people section.

Hello Buskahegian, you recently undid my edit to Bangor, Maine. Your edit summary stated that the reason you did this was because the section was "removed without explanation". I find this disingenuous of you since I had an edit summary stating my explanation as moving per WP:USCITY guidelines. You can find the specific relevant consensus reached guidelines here: WP:USCITY#Notable people.

First, I moved the link to "see also", I didn't delete it. Second, consensus was reached that the section should be called "notable people". I am all for keeping the section instead of moving it to "see also", if that is your preference. However, I am going to change the name. I just wanted to open communication with you to be friendly and explain my edit in more detail :) Dkriegls (talk) 21:36, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Hello Dkiegls. I'm fine with calling the section "notable people". I undid the edit not because of the renaming, but the re-location. In the links you provided, I couldn't find any imperative for moving a "notable people" section out of the main body of an article, into "see also". Also, the guidelines use words like "may" or "can", which suggest flexibility. Thus my inquiry. But thanks for your explanation, and we seem to have reached consensus on both issues.Buskahegian (talk) 00:00, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Ya, a long while back, I argued for keeping it in the body text, but lost. This discussion made me re-look and I was excited to see that consensus had shifted my way. So thanks :) Dkriegls (talk) 06:28, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of people from Bangor, Maine, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Thomas Taylor (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your input is requested at WikiProject Maine!

	Hello fellow WikiProject Maine members!
I'm trying to breathe a little new life into WP:WP ME and as such I have posted a few questions on the project's talk page that I would like to get some feedback from all of the project's members on! There are apparently a lot of inactive members on our participants list (and even a user that has been blocked for years). What do we as a project want to do about inactive or blocked users? I have some ideas on the issue, but would love feedback from others. Remove blocked users that appear to be no longer interested in participating in developing Wikipedia. Users with zero activity at all in three years are unlikely to come back. I suggest that we remove them from the mailing list and deactivate any categorizing feature of a userbox on their page. When doing this, we must make sure to leave a note on their talk page explaining that since they have been off-wiki for three years that they have been removed from the list as a purely technical measure and they are more than welcome to add themselves back to the list if they choose to start editing again. Users with zero activity on wiki for 18 months may come back, despite it being unlikely. I would suggest that we mark those users as inactive on our mailing list, and stop sending them messages like this one to prevent their user talk page from filling up with irrelevant notices. Users with zero activity on wiki for at least six months should be marked as inactive in the mailing list template, but should still receive mailings. I'm also trying to gauge some interest in there being a Great American Wikinic in Maine! If you are interested, possible locations might include Portland, Augusta, and or Bangor, please make a note in the appropriate section on our talk page! We should create a template to use for mass mailings from this wikiproject so all we need to do is enter our message and signature and the general format of the box and image and title and stuff will stay familiar. What is your opinion on this idea? Do you have any preferences to what that may look like (because I think this looks horrible compared to some I've seen from other projects)?
This message was sent by MediaWiki message delivery (talk) on behalf of {{U|Technical 13}} (e • t • c) at 17:26, 11 June 2014 (UTC). To remove yourself from this list, please remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiProject Maine/members, remove the WikiProject's userbox/category from your user page (rarely used for mass mailings), or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Opted-out of message delivery to your user talk page.
