Sweet Jesus, that's beautiful. Keep up the good work. I would suggest, though, either removing the font color formatting override for the would-be redlinks or stripping out those links without articles altogether. At present, there's no way for a reader to tell if he or she is actually going to see an article at the other end of a link (short of a close look at his or her browser's status bar while hovering over the link). --Dynaflow babble 09:09, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

References for "Noted students and alumni"
I'm mildly concerned by your referencing the "Noted students and alumni" on the Cal Poly Pomona article. For people with their own Wikipedia articles, the references would seem to appropriately belong in the article itself, not in the list. Eddy Hartenstein is the exception, since he doesn't yet have an article, and the reference establishes notability.--Curtis Clark (talk) 14:01, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
- If I may weigh in on Dabackgammonator's talk page, let me give you my thoughts on these references. I believe the references should be there because 1) most of the articles about the individuals do not include a reference about their college attendance, although they should, 2) including references is a best practice when you look at all the featured lists of alumni here, and 3) having too many citations is rarely a problem on Wikipedia pages. Thanks, ]
- My concern is that if the reference adds to the article about the person, it should be there. It's more a matter of scope than of over-referencing, although by putting the reference on the Cal Poly Pomona page, it's still not apparent whether it's in the target article. But, like I say, it's a minor concern.--Curtis Clark (talk) 01:24, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
- I moved the references to the their respective articles, so the referencing wouldn't be completely gone. I have a question to either one of you. Would the same reasoning apply if the article in question was "List of Cal Poly Pomona people"? Thanks.--Dabackgammonator (talk) 02:43, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
- In terms of referencing, I've seen a general best practice of placing references in the article to which they most pertain. Why have a "List of Cal Poly Pomona people"? For linking people with Wikipedia articles who are associated with Cal Poly Pomona, it seems that "Category: People associated with Cal Poly Pomona" (or something similar; check how similar categories are worded) would be more useful. If the list were to include people without Wikipedia articles, no matter how well-referenced, it might end up at AfD. See Wikipedia:Lists (stand-alone lists)#Lists of people.--Curtis Clark (talk) 13:48, 19 September 2008 (UTC)]

Why did you remove explicit reference to notable faculty from the main article? They are still there in the list, but, unless I missed it, it's unclear from the article that they can be found there.--Curtis Clark (talk) 01:19, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
- OK, I changed the section's name from "Alumni" to "Notable faculty and alumni". I apologize for making all these changes without consulting anyone, but I'd rather do and get erased/modified than to over think it and not. By the way, if you think anything I made is wrong and should be changed, smashed, blown to pieces, please do so! (P.S. my feelings won't get hurt =P).--Dabackgammonator (talk) 07:21, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

WPCSU
Glad to see you have started WikiProject California State University. About time the CSU starts catching up with the UC system and its WikiProject University of California. One of the big needs is adequate biographical articles on CSU campus presidents. Only a couple are more than stubs, and most aren't even started. I've done some work referencing
transparent images
On my talk page a couple of weeks ago, you asked how I turned Image:CSU.PNG transparent. For things like .GIF and .PNG images, I usually just use Paint.NET to add the transparency. Essentially, I use the "magic wand" tool to highlight everything that's not part of the image itself and just hit "delete"—it turns the backgrounds transparent (indicated by the grey-and-white checkerboard pattern). I use Inkscape to create .SVG images, but it's a bit more complicated. In those cases, I have to use a .EPS file, extract the .SVG image, and then edit it by hand in a text editor. I'm sure there's an easier way, but I'm not expert enough to figure it out. The .EPS files usually come directly from the college or university's website. Make sense?

WPCSU Importance Assessment
Greetings, Dabackgammonator. I've been thinking about a consistent approach to assessing the importance of WPCSU tagged articles. You have appropriately tagged the CSU campuses as Top importance. I would assign the biographical articles on campus presidents as High importance (I've done that for our short list of five or six existing articles). Should notable faculty bio articles be assigned Mid importance? That category also seems appropriate for special single-campus-related programs or facilities, e.g., Fairfield Osborn Preserve at SSU. Are there other categories that could "automatically" be assigned certain levels of importance? What are your thoughts? Dwalls (talk) 06:55, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
- It seems to me that notable alumni/former student bio articles also be assigned Mid importance.--Curtis Clark (talk) 14:46, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
- Agree. Thus, so far we agree on:
- Campuses - Top
- Presidents/Former Presidents - High
- Notable faculty/alumni - Mid
- I would disagree with a "mid-" categorization for campus facilities. In my opinion they should have a "high-" level of priority as I think they are a key part of the university's identity as a campus and for the university system as a whole.--Dabackgammonator (talk) 17:16, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
- I can see your point, and I can go along with you on "high" priority for facilities as significant as Fairfield Osborn Preserve. Dwalls (talk) 20:39, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
It might be a good idea to post the above points of agreement to the Discussion page for WikiProject California State University, along with any other principles, standards or points of agreement you and others may have arrived at. I'll leave that decision and summary to you, Dabackgammonator. Dwalls (talk) 20:10, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
- We should take take further discussions ]
Howdy! I reverted a series of edits that you made to Vanderbilt University tonight. It seemed to revert to an older version of the page (one where Nicholas S. Zeppos was still interim chancellor, for example), and there was no explanation given for the change. I didn't want you to think I'd just rolled stuff back willy-nilly though. Feel free to revert if I've just screwed everything up. :) Cheers! Esrever (klaT) 05:40, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
- I just edited the unit convertor from sqkm to km2. I don't recall making changes to Nicholas S. Zeppos, but if I accidentally messed it up I'm terribly sorry.--Dabackgammonator (talk) 23:57, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Mexican universities
- Please stop adding information without sources. Some people have spent countless hours trying to improve those articles and you are just trashing them with wrong or just plain outdated info.
- People are not required to give you "a through explanation" of why they are deleting your unsourced editions. You are the one who must justify your additions with referencesif you want them to stay.
- Do not make a zillion editions in each article. That's why the Show Previewbutton is there.
- There is no such thing as the "Big 12 Conference" anymore; its dead.[1][2] Stop forcing its inclusion and read before writing.
- There are rules for adding fair-use images. Read them. "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." We are trying to keep this encyclopedia as free as possible.
- It doesn't matter if the UNAM anthem calls it "universidad". It goes without saying that every human being singing that song would clearly know what they are talking about. However, the word means "university" in Spanish and is way too generic, even in Mexico City. Has it ever occurred to you that every university student, staff and faculty member calls its own university "university" in daily speech?
- Stop fabricating "conventions" out of nowhere. The convention for the Monterrey Tech campuses is Tecnológico de Monterrey, Campus Xyz. That's clearly specified by the school,[3] supported by the Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(use_English) (It can happen that an otherwise notable topic has not yet received much attention in the English-speaking world, so that no established usage exists. Very low google counts can but need not be indicative of this. If this happens, follow the conventions of the language in which the entity is most often talked about.) and that's the way they were named before you appeared and trashed them. Stop asserting your fabricated "Tec campuses convention". You made a mess.
- Esteban Zissou (talk) 10:15, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
- 1 "Some people have spent countless hours trying to improve those articles and you are just trashing them with wrong or just plain outdated info." First, you are talking about the underdeveloped article the article's references, you can see that 4 out of the mere 9 references in the article are are ones I added.
- 2. "People are not required to give you "a through explanation" of why they are deleting your unsourced editions." Well, maybe not necessarily a "through" one, but definitely more than "-unsourced" for wiping out over 2000 kbytes of information. 1
- 3. I totally give you that one! I'll try to force down on myself from now on. lol.
- 4. "There is no such thing as the "Big 12 Conference" anymore; its dead.[4][5]". Dude, if you count with this info why don't you just edit my clear mistake rather than erasing it altogether?
- 5. "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." Exactly why:
- and several more have their athletic departments' logo on the infobox and on the Athletics section of the article.
- 6. "It doesn't matter if the UNAM anthem calls it 'universidad'. It goes without saying that every human being singing that song would clearly know what they are talking about. However, the word means "university" in Spanish and is way too generic, even in Mexico City. Has it ever occurred to you that every university student, staff and faculty member calls its own university 'university' in daily speech?" Usually I would agree with these but look at the University of Texas, Austinas "Texas".
- 7."The convention for the Monterrey Tech campuses is Tecnológico de Monterrey, Campus Xyz." Now who is the one using "just plain outdated info". If I'm an English speaking reader in the English language Wikipedia would I rather have an article titled "Tecnológico de Monterrey, Campus Monterrey" or "Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education, Monterrey"? The extra word "campus" makes it sound awkward. In addition, the Tec system article is titled Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education so I don't understand the big fuzz about this move. It's clearly one or the other.

Here's something I want to try, start treating it as a peer review. Start by skimming through the article, making sure the article fits
And here's something even more radical. See if you can attract authors currently maintaining the different COTM articles to join our WikiProject and better yet, our COTM project. I found when I started this program, jumping ships and editing other universities' articles was a big leap, but it's been very fun so far. I'd like to see more people actively participating.

First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject).
I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.
If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!
If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.
Thank you and I hope to see you there! ]

Wikipedia Loves Art preparations
Are you read for WLA this Saturday? Here are some last minute preparations you should do before you arrive.
- Be sure you have a spiral bound memo pad or notebook (and pen) to take notes and to use for writing the accession numbers, which you then have to photograph (see Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art/LACMA rulesfor details).
- Be sure to print out the scavenger hunt list at Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art/LACMA rules/list. You may also wish to visit http://collectionsonline.lacma.org/mwebcgi/mweb.exe?request=onview1 to make a plan of attack.
- Since tripods and monopods are not allowed in the museum, consider making a string tripod (not as good as the real thing, but better than nothing).
Additionally, we will plan to eat out afterwards at a nearby dining establishment (TBD) -- hope you can join us for that. And finally, I was able to make arrangements for my daughter so I will be able to attend after all. Looking forward to seeing you there! ]

TfD nomination of Template:Greater Los Angeles Area
The Template:Greater Los Angeles Area is up for deletion. I believe it should be deleted because it includes all the cities in LA/OC as well as Ventura. It includes some of the IE cities, I think it should be deleted because its too long too may cities and also it doesent include all the cities in that metro and if added it will be WAY too long! I think it should be deleted or trimed into the LA/OC maby Ventura, since the IE has its own template and it not that long, so if its created into the LA/OC it wont be too long, and thats the way I think it should go so please visit the deletion log by using the information below:

A tag has been placed on Cal Poly Pomona Associated Students, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See Wikipedia:FAQ/Businessfor more information.
- It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, 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. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by
