I don't think this is an issue – the one basic, factual sentence in the article's content is probably not copyrightable. -Pete (talk) 01:50, 29 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Portland Parks Photo Blitz!

	<font=3> Want something to do this weekend? I propose a WikiProject Oregon weekend photo blitz! Let's try to fill up the List of parks in Portland, Oregon as much as possible by getting out and taking our own pictures or finding ones online that can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. The pictures uploaded will not only benefit the aforementioned list, but they will be used for future articles about specific parks and will fill up the Parks in Portland category over at Commons. Get your cameras ready! --Another Believer (Talk) 21:02, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings one and all. For some of you, this will be your first time receiving one of these messages, as it has been a year since the WikiProject Oregon Collaboration of the Week (COTW) was a regular thing. My hope is it gets back to being a regular thing.

Usually I would go over the past COTW, but we are basically starting out anew. So, without further adieu, this edition is our semi-annual picture drive. We usually try to do it when there is decent weather in the state, and today seems to fit the bill. Now although you are encouraged to go out and take pictures, you can also just search the internet for images that have the proper licensing and upload those. Flickr is one site that has a fair amount of content with the proper licensing (most images on Flickr are not compatible). See

Lastly, if you need to know what images we need, here are the requests. Please remove the request from the talk page if you add an image.

Finally (this is not image related), as the years have passed, we have lost many good editors, and others, like myself, are no longer in school or are working full-time or both, and thus are less active in the project. The project lives on, but it has created a bit of a power vacuum without a de facto cabal still around all the time. With that in mind, I encourage newer project members to step-up and fill some leadership type roles. Granted, we have no formal ruling junta or anything and no real defined roles, but there are many maintenance type tasks that some of us just took on to keep the project going. For instance, I ran the COTW, was pretty much the only one doing assessments, updating the portal, and even handing out the awards. I am sure others in the project can name what things they have done. The point being, that while I enjoyed those and still do some of those, I simply no longer have the free time to do all of it at a level that the project deserves. That said, I hope to start a discussion at

As always, please click here to opt out of these messages, or click here to make a suggestion for a future COTW. Aboutmovies (talk) 22:08, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article Kari Chisholm has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I don't see the notability here. Looks more like a resume/promo page to me. Arbor8 (talk) 22:08, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be

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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Arbor8 (talk) 22:08, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Michael, can you comment on the origins of the article LZ 127 Graf Zeppelin which you created in 2004. From an initial reading of the first draft, it appears that you were identifying with a German airship as you used metric measurements/weights and noted that the name was a "foreign word." There is a date convention however, that was in place which is the M/D/Y that is more common to the United States as the "popular" style of dates and that is the sticking point now as the article has evolved. Recently a bot changed the dates in the article which has resulted in an editor making the assertion that the US-style should predominate, and has made the argument based on the article being created that way and that no case had been made for the topic to be more related to Germany. FWiW, here is the discussion Bzuk (talk) 13:49, 23 August 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited Texas's 5th congressional district, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mike Nelson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
