Welcome![edit]

Hi Prez2016, and a warm welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! Be Bold! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!

Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some open tasks that you may want to help out :

  • RC Patrol - Keeping a lookout for vandalism.
  • Cleanup - Help make unreadable articles readable.
  • Requests - Wanted on WP, but hasn't been created.
  • Merge - Combining duplicate articles into one.
  • Wikiprojects - So many to join, so many to choose from...Take your pick!

Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments. And finally, if you have any questions or doubts, don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Once again, welcome! =)

Lt. Governors[edit]

Thanks for your work with lt. governors, but there is already a category for state lt. governors, Category:State lieutenant governors of the United States. --tomf688{talk} 01:11, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NJ Cabinet members[edit]

It's a brand new category, but [[Category:State cabinet secretaries in the United States]] seems way too broad if it only has NJ cabinet members. I'd suggest creating [[Category:State cabinet secretaries in New Jersey]] and making it a subcategory of [[Category:State cabinet secretaries in the United States]]. Then all of the NJ cabinet members would be in a logical group, even when subcategories are created and populated for the other 49 states. Alansohn 01:28, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There are more than 20 members listed on Richard Codey's page and that's probably typical nationwide. Do the math, and 20 members times 50 states equals 1,000 people in the category, and every 2% has nothing to do with the other 98% and a list that's impossible to manage or use. With state-level cats you'd have a nice neat group of 20 or so members, plus people who served in the past and it's managable. I'm happy to help if you need it.
I fixed both the Union County page and the template. It's been a rough time with all of the NJ governmental changes at virtually every level. Alansohn 01:43, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please see my comments regarding your recent edit to this page. Can you provide a source which suggests Crist was at one point an educator? Or can you justify adding the category based on his tenure as Commissioner of Education? I'd be interested to hear your line of thinking on this. See you there. Thanks. ALC Washington 20:37, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I replied to your response several days ago. Please see the talk page. ALC Washington 23:34, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

New Jersey edits and WP:NJ[edit]

I want to thank you for all of your work on New Jersey-related pages. I would like to invite you to participate in Wikiproject New Jersey, a very loosely organized group of nearly two dozen people who are working on filling in and expanding the details on Wikipedia of all things New Jersey. Membership has no obligations (and even fewer priveleges), but if there is anything about New Jersey that you would like to work on (and you'be already proven a strong interest), i think you will find a number of like-minded people. Alansohn 23:37, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Robert Caro[edit]

Just wanted you to know that I corrected your alumni category from Columbia to Princeton. I don't normally let people know this, but it was right there in the article that he graduated from Princeton in 1957 and it didn't look good (where did you get that info, anyway?). Daniel Case 04:58, 23 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK. I'll put that in the article then (a lot of people forget this, but categories should reflect article content). Daniel Case 03:50, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for participating in Wikiproject New Jersey. In an attempt to create articles for some of the non-existing pages related to New Jersey, NJCOTW was recently created to bring members of WP:NJ together to work collaboratively on a certain selected topic, which this week is List of Governors of New Jersey. Please help by nominating/voting/commenting on articles on WP:NJCOTW, or by helping to improve articles in the scope of the topic for the NJCOTW. AndyZ 00:51, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

edit summaries[edit]

Hey, could I ask you to use edit summaries when putting lots of articles in categories? It just saves a lot of people time double-checking. — Laura Scudder 00:55, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

State treasurers[edit]

William Donald Schaefer is not the Treasurer of Maryland, he is the Comptroller of Maryland. The Comptroller is the chief financial position in the state, though, which I assume is the goal of your template. You may want to reconsider changing the name of the template to something more ambiguous, such as Template:U.S. state chief financial officers or something similar but shorter. --tomf688{talk} 03:06, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Sorry I just assumed it was you. --tomf688{talk} 03:17, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

==Please Use Edit Summaries==

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

Category:County Government Officials in the U.S.[edit]

Hi, you might want to hold off before you get too far along in adding Category:County Government Officials in the U.S. to a whole lot of articles. It seems a rather unwieldy and poorly defined category. olderwiser 02:05, 14 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jane Hadley Barkley[edit]

An anonymous user has added a succession box to the Jane Hadley Barkley article you created, however they did it incorrectly. Since I don't know how to fix this problem, I have tagged the article for cleanup and explained the situation on the article's Talk page. --TommyBoy 05:41, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, another user has fixed the problem. --TommyBoy 01:08, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs[edit]

Hello Prez2016! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 24 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 942 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

AfD nomination of Susan Tietjen[edit]

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Susan Tietjen.

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:15, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article Jack Quinn III has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article.

Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced.

The article Mary Jo Codey has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not seeing much that would make this person in her own right notable enough for an article. It looks like she was married to a new Jersey governor and does some mental health advocacy work. The two sources given link to bios on government pages.

While all constructive 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.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Frank Pelzman requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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 the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
