Blade Runner (game) article

Hello! I have written some comments at the talk page to an article which you have previously seen; would you like to add to them somewhat? In my view the article is above that of a Start class; probably at B-class for now. Is there an importance rating for videogames? We will need a couple of positive opinions in addition to mine own to get it up there. See what you think; here is the talk page. Thanks! - D-Katana 15:40, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

sf bay(area)islands categories

I see your point, but I'm really not sure what to do. Maybe if I give you some 411 on the issue you might find a differant perspective and we can work somthing out. There are a lot of islands in the Sacramento/San Joaquin River Delta, the ones in Contra Costa and Alameda County are in the Bay Area but not usually considered to be in the San Francisco Bay. The islands along the pacific coasts of Santa Cruz, San Mateo, San Francisco, Marin, and Sonoma Counties are also in the San Francisco Bay Area (SFBA) but not the San Francisco Bay (SFB), additionally islads in the interior of the SFBA like the Sonoma River or within inland lakes are in the SFBA but not the SFB. San Francisco Bay Islands are few: Angel, Alcatraz, Yerba Buena (with artifical Treasure Island addition, which isnt really an independant land mass), Brooks, Red Rock, Marin Islands, Brother Islands and that is about it. There are a lot of islands created artifically by dyking of the southern San Francisco Bay and coastal wetlands. Bay Farm Island, Belvedere Island, and Point Richmond Island have been connected to the mainland while Alameda and Sanctuary (island) have been separated from the mainland. The rest are not in the San Francisco and San Pablo Bays. So if anything delete SFB and just keep SFBA islands, but i dont think its really a problem to have both at this point.CholgatalK! 01:20, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Project Management

Hi,

I saw you weigh in at the afd for the PMBOK and saw you were taking the exam for your PMP in a couple of days. Good luck! You may notice I've remarked in the AFD that project management bafflegab is not relevant to the AFD and hope you don't miscontrue this as my position and as an insulting remark. I am just trying to counter Smerdis of Tlön's opinion because whether one holds that project management is just a big scam for high-priced consultants or whether it is the backbone of any project is simply not relevant to the discussion of the book. And for the record, I have a PMP certified manager on my team in a huge project and she is worth her weight in gold. Regards. -- Whpq (talk)

Hi CVBRX, thanks for your comment on my talk page, as for an explanation to the changes I installed: I did not do a complete reversion but did note that "scratch" cataloging for citation information that was already in place was changed to templated citation notes? There was also some repetition of information and the misplacing of reference sources to contend with. Those changes resulted in a slight revising of the section to eliminate the post-dated information and to "tighten" the narrative a bit although the wording is still dicey. As I did not see a particular need to alter the reference notation that was already in place, I restored the citations as previously written. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 00:37, 22 August 2010 (UTC).

FWiW, just a follow-up on the edits recently made. In Wiki aviation themed articles, try to stay away from the use of the colloquialism: "plane" or "airplane" as both terms have been deprecated by the Aviation Project group in favor of "aircraft" or the use of the proper name or type. The use of dates is also an area to consider in that a consensus has been established to use military-style dating (day-month-year, e.g. 21 August 2010 [note: no commas]) for US (note also U.S.) and other military forces and their equipment, although in the case of civil aircraft (note "aircraft" not "plane"), an American type can use the more common or "popular" style, month-day-year (e.g. August 21, 2010) variant (note "variant", not "version" is also the more commonly used terminology) for the particular design.

You tried to delete Joseph Matheny before, and I think the conflicted editor (probably the subject of the article) deleted the nomination. I am retrying this deletion, please tell me if you still support it. Maximilianklein (talk) 19:35, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Flight numbers in Wikipedia

Thanks for making Wikipedia worse. The flight number is just a way of referring to an incident. Yes, morons often find great joy in posting idiotic drivel on wikipedia, which is no longer an encyclopedia. Carry on, if you so wish. No wonder no one takes wikipedia seriously - and you are helping keep it this way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 153.221.6.50 (talk) 23:26, 24 November 2018 (UTC)
