Hello,
Thank you for working on categorizing the organizational categories. I've worked mostly with women's groups but it's nice to see you taking up the fire fighting organizations.
One tip with categories, they don't usually contain actual information other than the articles in the category. Some contain a little header explaining what should go in the category but that's all. So you don't lose the work of your list I'm copying it here perWP:G6. (I was going to put in on your sandbox page but that's a redirect so I wasn't sure if you would get it.) Good luck.RevelationDirect (talk)15:03, 20 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for adding a relevant picture and caption toWindmill. I want to point you to English Wikipedia's style guide section:MOS:POSTABBR. Generally, using postal abbreviations—such as CA for California, or WA for Washington or Western Australia—is discouraged as they're less likely to be widely understood by ourglobal audience, or could be interpreted as two or more political subdivisions. I went ahead and expandedNY toNew York in the caption you added. →GS →☎ →06:50, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, your new articlePantigo windmill (Easthampton, New York) popped up on my watchlist, i suppose it must have linked to something i created long ago.
It looks like it is a valid topic for an article, but I don't think it is a separately listed place on the National Register, because I think we have most of those covered already, at least in New York State. I don't see it mentioned inNational Register of Historic Places listings in East Hampton (town), New York. Is it included in thePantigo Road Historic District, perhaps? What is your evidence that it is NRHP listed? Perhaps it has an NRHP plaque on it, which a contributing building in an NRHP historic district can carry, without being separately listed. Or i worry if it is an alternate name for an NRHP-listed windmill already having an article.
I would like to help you get it described and connected in, properly. I mostly edit NRHP articles, myself. Either way, I am sure this can get sorted out eventually, and I thank you for contributing. Cheers, --Doncram (talk)23:26, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I debated the naming, but after finding that every last one of these windmills were moved, it make sense to add the town. If you look at the list, every windmill deserves its own entry due to the importance to the community at some point in their lives. The village green can be expanded, but the museums all deserve their own articles. The village green article will have the poles, the stones, the seats, the arbors, the churches and the graves, but the windmills of the east end each get their story told. I just working on the ones in the NRHP first, the hayground was an outlier, googlemaps mis-directed me and it was a doozy to find, just getting google to fix that mess will take some doing. Gardiner Mill is incorrectly placed over in amagansett, where that mill burnt to the ground in 1924. It really is on James lane across from his grave.CaptJayRuffins (talk)00:20, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Here's the thing, I need help with the articles like the village green. The windmills is a start, see Category=Windmills in New York (state) and I plan to expand on the ones on the east end. but there is the problem of the underlying districts. I shot Quogue, now I have to write the Quogue Historical district article. But I'm still in windmills, and fleshing out the village. If I send pics, can you help?

Hello, CaptJayRuffins
Thank you for creatingCarl G. Holmes.
User:Doomsdayer520, while examining this page as a part of ourpage curation process, had the following comments:
Thank you for this new article, though I am concerned about the "Early life and career" section. That section is not about Mr. Holmes (he is not named in the paragraph) but is instead about all black firefighters of that time. Also, most of that section has no citations. It could be characterized asoriginal research which should be avoided at Wikipedia. I recommend revamping that section to make it more specific to Mr. Holmes and the challenges HE faced early in his career.

A tag has been placed onDaisy Tapley requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done undersection G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguouscopyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy fromhttps://www.sagharborpartnership.org/permanent-residents-of-oakland-cemetery.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source ofinformation, but not as a source ofsentences. This part is crucial:say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violatorswill beblocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then youmust verify that externally by one of the processes explained atWikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, seeWikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it.

The articleRed Hook Lane Arresick has beenproposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Although this claims to be an article about "Red Hook Lane Arresick", a "revolutionary war burial ground in Red Hook, Brooklyn", about 80% or more if offtopic, and the only reference to the supposed burial ground is the assertion that he ground was discovered and used as the hook for a heritage trail. We learn, roughly, absolutely zero about the supposed burial ground. This does not look salvageable.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may bedeleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the{{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in youredit summary or onthe article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing{{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop theproposed deletion process, but otherdeletion processes exist. In particular, thespeedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, andarticles for deletion allows discussion to reachconsensus for deletion.Tagishsimon (talk)19:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. As I was browsing some NYC Commons categories, I noticed some of your pictures and see that you frequently contribute to NYC topics. Maybe someone has told you about this in the past, but FYI there is an active non-profit based in NYC which holds regular events related to Wikipedia/Wikmedia projects:Wikimedia New York City. We have monthly events called WikiWednesdays which are open to the public. They typically involve a mix of presentations and discussions about various topics. It's very informal, and since last spring they've been online (like everything else). Information about this month's meeting is here, if you're interested:Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/April 2021. And you can always find out about upcoming events (WikiWednesdays but also topic-specific events) atWP:WMNYC. —Rhododendritestalk \\22:12, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

| Women in Red 8th Anniversary |
| InJuly 2015 around15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As ofJuly 2023,19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary!Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap! |

Hi CaptJayRuffins,
Thank you for starting the Elaine de Kooning House Wikipedia page. I help manage the website and social media for the house, and we were really pleased when we discovered the page. We have one minor revision that we are hoping you can make.
Can you please change the title of the page from "The Elaine de Kooning house" to "Elaine de Kooning House"?
Thanks for your great work on the page!-ScottMarshall586 (talk)18:57, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
