Images, WikiProject NASCAR, & WikiProject Wisconsin
We should talk about images the next time we get together in person. I still find the image rules confusing after significant reading and having it explained to me.
If your serious about joining these 2 projects then you should add yourself as a participant. You need not necessarily be very active to be a member in a project. Royalbroil 02:54, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
ARCA racers -> ARCA drivers
I have nominated that the category "ARCA racers" be renamed "ARCA drivers" in order to be more consistant with other categories like "NASCAR drivers", "American Speed Association driver", etc. Please click here for an explanation of the problem, and a link for you to leave your comments. The problem could significantly affect WikiProject NASCAR. Royalbroil 00:45, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
- Unfortunately I probably won't see you in person for Easter. You're wasting your time uploading fair use images. The images experts at wikipedia don't care if articles have images or not. I had an image expert come up with a set of rules for WikiProject NASCAR so that uploaders and image experts stop wasting each other's time. You can find the rules here. I know that they are EXTREMELY limited options, but at least you don't waste your time downloading and then uploading an image that is just gonna get deleted in 7 days (like the Hamlin pic will).

Re:Images
Sounds like a good idea. Just be sure that they are all

Looks good to me. Also, I think it might be good organize the categories in alphabetical order. Mind you, I'm OCD about that for some weird reason. I know you're new to the NASCAR project, but you're doing a heckuva job! Keep up the good work! --D-Day(]
- Great idea for having an ASA drivers category. I only have a minor change to the ASA drivers list. All the other pages are named in the form "ASA drivers" not "ASA Drivers" - note the lower case on drivers. Would you make that change?
- The list should include everyone in Wikipedia that raced in ASA, not just popular NASCAR drivers. So I mean all blue links on the ASA article.
It also might be cool to see a category for World of Outlaws drivers.
- I have a list of regional series (some at a similar level to ASA) that I've been thinking about adding - (USAR/Hooters/Slim Jim Pro Series, MARS, Wisconsin Challenge Series, ARTGO, etc.). Do you have any knowledge or information on any of them? Can you think of any that I missed? Royalbroil 01:11, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- Another thing, I've been trying to put the awards in the NASCAR infobox in some kind of order of importance to NASCAR. So I would put the ASA award on the Alan Kulwicki article last. I think his NASCAR championship needs to be first, because the reader might only scan the top of the list. Royalbroil 01:20, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
I removed Mike Eddy from WikiProject NASCAR since he had no NASCAR starts. He should be able to stand his own without the WikiProject support (if AFD comes up) because he won 7 championships in a major national tour. Royalbroil 03:35, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
ARTGO
The exact proposed series name should be used. I think its something like It is
Jimmy Spencer
- I notice that you added the ASA Drivers cat to the Jimmy Spencer article. When did he run in that series? I know he was never a regular there, but he may have run a couple of specials over the years. Is that category used only for season-long participants, or is the tag appropriate also for one-time guests? Barno 14:50, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
WikiProject NASCAR proposed standards
- Please voice your opinion. I came here to make sure that you heard about the standards. Royalbroil 03:49, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
New Holstein
I had no idea that there were so many famous people that were from New Holstein. Thanks for adding interesting articles. The Timm House needs an article. It is on the
- You can find out the specifics on what camera was used by clicking the image (like the ones that I just placed on the New Holstein, Wisconsin article) and scrolling down to the bottom to the metadata section. I hope that helps. Royalbroil 02:41, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
