If you find a page with an incorrect title, then the technique to use is to "Move" the page. "Cut and paste" moves lose the edit history of the previous article. -Will Beback 20:31, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
Charles Clarence Pratt
Is there a typo in this article? First paragraph is about Pratt, but the second starts out talking about someone named Henry W. Palmer. I know you've been doing a lot of congressmen. Some other congressman's name? I happened to stumble on this one, thought I'd let you know. Fan-1967 19:06, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Userpage
I came across some of your congressional articles and am glad you are contributing in this area. I note on your userpage that you are trying to get an article done on every Pennsylvania Congressman "from the US Civil War to 1900" but then you list several 20th-century Members. Is "1900" a typo, or did you expand the scope of your work? (Also, Rep. Hoyer's first name is "Steny" with one "n".) Best regards, Newyorkbrad 18:18, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for noticing. I had been working on the Congressmen from 1900 to WWI most recently, but I completed that project just today. The last one was Samuel A. Davenport added at 17:18, 25 August 2006. I try to work in a managable time period, but also will drift off in random directions if a subject interests me or I get into a "Tetris" mode of editing. Sometimes I just hate seeing that spot of red in a sea of blue. Npeters22 19:37, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
- I agree with you -- some of my own biographical articles get started for the same reason. Regards, Newyorkbrad 19:53, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

==United States Congressional Delegations from Pennsylvania==
You seem to be the keeper of this article. That's why I'm coming to you. The reps need more than just color-coding for parties (although the colors are good). Each rep should have a party abbreviation. See
I've found a nice, reliable, online source for getting the names of the people in Congressional delegations: http://www.gpoaccess.gov/serialset/cdocuments/hd108-222/index.html , but I'm not sure how best to incoporate it into the many, many articles we have that could use it as a reference. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks!

Isaac Van Horne
Hi, I seem to be having a bit of trouble adding info to his biog. He was a member of Congress from Bucks Co. before and maybe during the first year or so that it met in DC. Then he went West and became really perhaps as important in Ohio. His biog info has aleady been kind of a fuss, as the Congress Website folks dug in their heals after they made a typo in his place of residence, and wouldn't even accept that they have the correct info in their own Library. IVH was b Solebury Bucks Co PA and lived there until 1805 when he went to Ohio, also I've got quite a bit more info on him, since he wrote an autobiography and was Adjutant General of the Ohio Militia during the War of 1812, was a founding member of the

- Please decscribe the exact point of you objection to your sources, since the term personal website does not appear in WP:RS. Are you claiming these sources are not scholarly, not objective, extremist, or some other objection? I don't see where sites admitting to a primary webmaster should be rejected as a source.Npeters22 (talk) 02:44, 21 November 2009 (UTC)]
- Why do they need to be included? They're personal websites and neither reflect the official website. Justin talk 12:56, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
- Isn't that the reason why you would have multiple sources? In this specific case, the other sources provide the statistical information about the prefecture (population, size, etc.) as well as a clearer explanation of the prefecture's lineage than what is provided by the "offical" webasite. Finally, I have used these sources in other situations, so I do want to understand your objection. "Personal" websites (the term is not used in the WP:RS, so I am assuming you mean Self-published sources) are allowed if the person publishing is an extablished expert in the field. I would argue these are both secondary sources compliled by experts in their field.Npeters22 (talk) 14:56, 23 November 2009 (UTC)]
- You've hit the nail on the head, they're self-published sources, I'm not convinced of the expertise given they get facts like the name wrong. Justin talk 15:07, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
- I'm sorry? The name is correct in both sources. The name is properly written in Latin, so there can be a little difference in the translated name. What do you think the proper name is?Npeters22 (talk) 16:16, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
- If you are referring to the "o Malvinas" or the "seu Malvinis", this is because the name in Latin is essentially "Apostolic Prefecture of the Faulkland Islands or the Malvines." I assume this is because of the Faulkland Islands War. Vatican translations into English often use "o" as a linkage. I have no idea why. Nonetheless, in practical usage English Speakers call it the "Apostolic Prefecture of the Faulkland Islands". Npeters22 (talk) 16:37, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

WP:NATFEAT. "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. [...] If a Wikipedia article cannot be developed using known sources, information on the feature can instead be included in a more general article on local geography.
