NR photos

Thanks, but I did my final TN uploads around Christmas; I had an unsuccessful job interview in metro Chattanooga, and most of what I photographed was already online anyway. Nyttend (talk) 21:39, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Clyde Duncan?

Out of curiosity, why did you use this article that states he died on February 15th over this one which states it was the 16th? Gamermadness (talk) 14:27, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

The first few hits when I searched for a source said February 15. Tom Mattingly, the author of the News Sentinel article, is close to the UT program. I'll see what else I can find. Bms4880 (talk) 14:34, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

It really irks me when websites have different dates for things. Anyway thanks for responding and good luck in your search! Gamermadness (talk) 14:42, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

Thank You!

Thank You So Much for adding those Images to Seven Islands State Birding Park. --ACase0000 (talk) 14:19, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

No problem. It needs more pictures of birds, I suppose. Bms4880 (talk) 13:16, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Do you have any? Also should it be added that Geese sometimes are seen? --ACase0000 (talk) 16:26, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

The geese were the only birds I was able to photograph. I saw several other species, but they were either too far away or in flight. Bms4880 (talk) 18:42, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Oh, I see. Again, thanks. --ACase0000 (talk) 20:52, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Mosheim

Hello there, I was wondering if you can add something to the Mosheim, Tennessee article? Something about their annual festival Mosheim FunDays. You can find more info here.

 Done. I'm not sure if it should be in the economy or recreation section. Either would work. Bms4880 (talk) 21:29, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

Thank You, I didn't know where to put it either. --ACase0000 (talk) 01:57, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

Information

Hey! I was wondering if any of this information would be useful to some articles for Greene County, Tennessee communities? http://www.tngenweb.org/goodspeed/greene/ --ACase0000 (talk) 17:37, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

The Goodspeed histories meet the reliable sources criteria, and can provide useful information, especially when there aren't any other good sources. If you use them, be careful, though, since they were written 130 years ago, and some of the information may be outdated. Ignore most of the measurements, as the numbers have likely changed over time. For instance, the size of Greene County is now 624 square miles, not 530. Also, some of the names and spellings may have changed. The community of Fullens, for example, mentioned toward the bottom of the article, is now known as Chuckey. Bms4880 (talk) 22:18, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

Ok, Thanks! --ACase0000 (talk) 03:28, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

Picture

Hello. I have noticed you uploaded this picture. Any chance you might be able to find a portrait of her husband, James Hampton Kirkland please?Zigzig20s (talk) 18:26, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

I found this on the same site, though it was painted in 1938, so I'm not sure of the copyright status. The artist who painted it died in 1943. That's all I could find in my usual places. Bms4880 (talk) 18:57, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

Greeneville's Incorporation Date

Hi, there! I was reading the official Greene County website history page and it says Greeneville, Tennessee was incorporated in 1903. However the Tennessee Blue Book says 1795. --ACase0000 (talk) 16:10, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

The Blue Book gives the date as 1795, but notes the current charter dates to 1903: [1] (p. 620). So, the 1903 date may have been some sort of rechartering. I'm not sure what happened in 1795, though I know Greeneville had mayors and aldermen during the 1800s (including Andrew Johnson), which suggests it was incorporated. Let's keep it at 1795 for now. I'll see what else I can find. Bms4880 (talk) 18:14, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

OK, Thanks! I also noticed several other cities/towns listed in The Blue Book listed 1903 as current charter. --ACase0000 (talk) 02:08, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Original Barnstar
	Thanks for the great article on Theodore Schleier. You did a tremendous amount of digging and it's an excellent reference. 850 C (talk) 19:35, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanks. I think 95% of that article is patched together from old newspaper articles. Bms4880 (talk) 19:55, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

Southern Appalachia
Thank you, Brian, for quality articles and images about Southern Appalachia, especially biographies such as George A. Dickel and Carl Giers, and places such as "a solid well-developed new NRHP article on Briceville Community Church" and place of learning Tennessee Technological University, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

Iron City

Hey there! I found some info you may want look into about Iron City, Tennessee being dis-incorporated. Here on the Lawrence County Advocate website in the Archives section go to 2010 and you want the May 30, 2010 edition. By-the-way I already changed the article to say it is now a CDP. --ACase0000 (talk) 16:19, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Good find! I mentioned its former status in the article. Bms4880 (talk) 18:25, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Park City, Knoxville

Hey! I was wondering if there should be an article on Park City, a city that existed from 1907 to 1917 when it was annexed by Knoxville? --ACase0000 (talk) 18:22, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

It's mostly covered by the Parkridge, Knoxville, Tennessee article. Bms4880 (talk) 18:28, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Ok, Thanks. :) --ACase0000 (talk) 18:39, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Uploading Pictures

Powell County, Tennessee

Hello! I found something regarding a county called Powell, which included Fall Branch as it's seat, Kingsport, Baileyton, Church Hill, Bloomingdale and Colonial Heights.Here is the link. Would It be of any use to Wikipedia? --ACase0000 (talk) 05:31, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

It probably doesn't warrant its own article, because it appears the county was never actually created, merely proposed (the article doesn't elaborate, but it's possible that voters rejected it). It should definitely be mentioned in the Fall Branch article, though. Bms4880 (talk) 13:34, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

Ok, Thank You! I added the info to the Fall Branch article. --ACase0000 (talk) 14:00, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

History sections

Hey! I added history sections for Oak Hill, Tennessee and Ridgeside, Tennessee. You may want to add or remove some stuff. :) --ACase0000 (talk) 19:07, 1 September 2015 (UTC)

Looks good. I made a few changes to Ridgeside to more closely match the source. It appears Paul "established" the city using land that had been part of his father's farm.

Oh, Ok. No Problem. Thank You!--ACase0000 (talk) 23:49, 1 September 2015 (UTC) :)

Cullum Mansion

Hello. Thank you for uploading a picture of the Cullum Mansion in Carthage, Tennessee. I have just created a referenced stub. Perhaps you will be able to expand it with more in-line referenced info. What I find strange is that the nomination form says William Cullum was a Congressman, but I can't find anything about him on Google?Zigzig20s (talk) 17:26, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

It's spelled William Cullom in his congressional biography. I'm not sure of the correct spelling. Bms4880 (talk) 17:33, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

Thanks. Just created Davis-Hull House. Thank you for uploading that picture too.Zigzig20s (talk) 18:14, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

Just created James Bradley House as well. Not sure if William Sanders or James Bradley are sufficiently notable to have their own articles (Bradley might be).Zigzig20s (talk) 18:58, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

Also the Cordell Hull Bridge, the Carthage United Methodist Church...I am creating stubs and hoping others will find more info from books. Are you interested in expanding them, or are you busy with other projects?Zigzig20s (talk) 19:53, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

I'm mostly focused on other projects at the moment. I'm not sure what I would add beyond what you've added. Bms4880 (talk) 17:20, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

Guntersville Lake

Hello. Do you know how to add the map to the infobox please?Zigzig20s (talk) 15:30, 19 September 2015 (UTC)

First Tennessee Plaza

Hello, I'm writing an article about my Grandfather Joshph S. Goodstein. I believe he designed the original building, and I was wondering if you have copies of the references that you cites? If you have copies, and they do mention him as the architect I would want to use them as references in his article. Thnka you very much! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Joseph_S._Goodstein Ghbeeri (talk) 08:26, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

None of the sources mentioned the architect (I remember looking for the architect, but didn't find anything). If you have a reliable source for your grandfather as the architect, by all means add it to the article. Bms4880 (talk) 13:56, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

I'm sorry for posting up top.

I have the bank statement from 1978. is that sufficient? if so, how do add it?

I was hoping to find him mentioned, as I'm finding difficulties in justifying an article about him. (his main claim to fame is the Thompson–Boling ::Arena).

Thanks for your great feedback!

Ghbeeri (talk) 15:21, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

The bank statement isn't really sufficient. If he designed the Plaza Tower, surely it's noted in a major publication. He appears to be notable, we just need to find sources. Is there some sort of bio somewhere?

Question

On the Elizabethton, Tennessee article, there are some sub-sections under "Demographics" that seem to not belong under demographics. Just wondering what you thought. --ACase0000 (talk) 00:29, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Hmm... they certainly don't belong there. Perhaps move them to the Geography section. Bms4880 (talk) 14:38, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
