Any chance you can do some searching? There's info in ref#1 - his grandson is trying to search for him, he seems to have disappeared after a certain time and nothing has come up for him. The grandson mentions he may have changed his name on his website, which may complicate things further, but could you maybe have a look and add anything you can find that I haven't already?

Dear Cbl62,

My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, were it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.

So a few things about the interviews:

• Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
• Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
• All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
• All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
• The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.

Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name HERE instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

Sincerely,

Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) 02:31, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for your comment: I have created an ALT which I hope deals with your reservation - Best, --Smerus (talk) 07:56, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the review and the compliments! Regarding the choice of image, I'd rather include your opinion than simply choosing by myself. I agree that many images of historic sites commemorated by markers are more eye-catching than images of markers themselves, but I'm concerned by the fact that an image that doesn't prominently feature a historical marker is less likely to be closely related to the list. That's why I put otherwise not-so-good images of markers at the top of each photo column on the list page, and also that's why I'm not really interested in featuring the beautiful First State Capital image that you suggested. Compounding the problem is the fact that most images that concentrate on historical markers will show old, ugly pieces of metal: most markers placed before 1978 have deteriorated somewhat, and markers placed in 1978 and later are still under all-rights-reserved copyright, so we can't have images that feature them directly. Finally, if we could choose a nicer image that represented the list well, I'm not sure how we'd word the (pictured) statement.

All this being said, can you suggest a good image? I'm quite open to replacing the Pivot Point marker with a better-looking image that will satisfy my concerns. Nyttend (talk) 01:07, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi!

My name is Victor and I'm a storyteller with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. I'm chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who make and use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I'd very much like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project, or if you know anyone with whom I should speak.

Thank you for your time,

A while ago (okay, a long time ago in wiki-time) you did a whole lot of articles on Los Angeles area historic buildings. I wanted to let you know that the National Park Service has finally scanned their nomination documents for California NRHP properties, and they're online on at the NRHP site [http://nrhp.focus.nps.gov/natreghome.do?searchtype=natreghome] if you're interested. Acroterion (talk) 14:06, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

Cbl, were you a party to the 2007 sports notability discussions when Arena Football League players were granted a presumption of notability based on an appearance in a single game? That's just bizarre. I'm not sure how I blew by that element of WP:NGRIDIRON, since I'm fond of quoting it in full . . . perhaps because my eyes simply couldn't believe it. BTW, it was inserted on September 3, 2007 at 23:10 by User:Jmfangio, who was already twice indefinitely banned for being a sock puppet. Previous versions of the standard applicable to Arena players required multiple starts or play in multiple seasons. The athletic skill, media coverage and inherent notability of Arena Football League players are not on remotely the same level as those of the NFL. It's a mystery to how this ever got by, but it's probably too damn late to do anything about it now. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 02:03, 6 May 2012 (UTC)

Cbl, I am kicking around a more specific notability standards for those CFB players who do not meet one or more of the new specific presumption standards on which we already agree (i.e. recipients of major national CFB awards, CFB hall of famers, consensus and first-team All-Americans, major NCAA record holders). In particular, I would like to see the following language included in the new WP:NCFB and/or WP:NCOLLATH:

• "substantial, in-depth and prolonged coverage by independent, reliable sources of the individual college athlete, distinct from any team of which the athlete may be a member" (the "substantial and prolonged" concept is an import from the present standard for high school athletes);
• "in determining the notability of a college athlete, regional media coverage shall carry more weight than that of local or hometown media; and national media coverage shall more weight than that of regional media" (as we have discussed);
• "coverage by recruiting services should be given little, if any, weight in determining the notability of a college athlete" (the idea being to eliminate Scout.com, Rivals.com, etc., as sources for establishing notability);
• "fan blogs shall be given no weight in determining the notability of a college athlete, but major media blogs written by professional journalists and subject to editorial review may be considered" (let's make it specific);
• specifically define "independent sources" to exclude "any media guide, record book, press release, newspaper, blog, website or other publication affiliated with, written or published by the athlete, the athlete's team, athletic department, university, or conference" (the idea here is to consolidate the concept of independent sources buried in WP:N, and tailor it to the specifics of college athletes for the new WP:NCFB and revised WP:NCOLLATH); and
• specifically define "routine coverage" to include "simple quotes from the player, simple quotes about the player's practice or game performances from his coaches, recitation of game statistics, and descriptions of noteworthy plays in post-game articles; coverage of lists of honors and awards; coverage of preseason watch lists; and coverage of the player's recruitment process" (recruitment really should be covered under the standard applicable to high school, not college athletes).
• include links to five or six specific examples of substantial/in-depth/meaningful coverage of the individual athlete (I think we can easily agree on five or six solid examples from the Michigan players we have both reviewed).

That's as tight a standard for which I could ever hope to get consensus, and I hope you will consider these ideas. I still think it offers some subjective wiggle room, but provides better tools to AfD participants when three-quarters of them look at an article and say "that ain't notable." If we can agree on some compromise language, then we can propose it to the working group, and get their input.

We also need to give some serious thought to what we want to do about notability standards for CFB rivalry series and individual CFB regular season games. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 01:05, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

As a big fan of HBO's Deadwood and Walter Hill, I was surprised to find frequent Hill stunt coordinator Allan Graf had no page about him. What a story I found. Would you mind looking it over, especially the sections where your college football knowledge could serve the page? I'm thinking about a DYK hook, but before I post one, I thought I'd ask someone who really loved the subject matter. I'll see if I can find a filmmaker group reviewer to help me depuff the film making section a bit. Not enough sources at this time to take this to FA, but GA looks very doable. Thanks in any case.

Cbl, could you take a look at the Mitch Ivey article, particularly the last paragraph? This article is 100% my handiwork, and I want to make sure that my retelling of the circumstances of his firing by the University of Florida in 1993 is a 100% fair, accurate and balanced retelling. It is, of course, fully footnoted with articles from The Gainesville Sun, The New York Times and Orlando Sentinel. Oddly, nothing survives on the ESPN website. Please let me know what you think, and make any changes you think appropriate. I am particularly interested in your perspective as an attorney, not just a sports fan.

Hi Cbl62. If you could take a look at the Joseph A. Shannon article and its linked works articles and probably all their NRHP documents, I'd appreciate some help. I think I have figured out from NRHP documents that Joseph A. Shannon is the same person who is named J.H. Shannon in one NRHP document and John A. Shannon in another. While not the same as an architect J.A. Shannon in Oklahoma who designed Tishomingo City Hall. E.g. 2 sources state a different variation is the designer of one work, the Dickey Free Library. I am left struggling how to present it in the main architect article and in the others, too. I have not looked for other sources besides the NRHP documents. It would be helpful, presentation-wise, to find an external source that identified the mistakes/variations in names; currently I am not sure how to treat the subject of apparent mistakes in mainspace. There might be more material about Shannon in the NRHP docs for some of the linked articles that I never got to, but I'm walking away from this one for a while. Thanks for your other work recently.

Hi. FYI in completing out articles linked directly from List of RHPs in ND i just started relatively weaker articles for:

• Evans Site (New Town, North Dakota)
• High Butte Effigy and Village Site (32ME13)
• Lower Souris National Wildlife Refuge Airplane Hangar
• Lynch Quarry Site
• Crystal Springs Fountain
• Myers School Timbered Lodge (32BI401)
• Custer Military Trail Historic Archaeological District

I do think these are valid, useful articles but note these are weaker than many others because there are not NRHP docs available online for these ones, i think because they are new listings or they are address-restricted archeological sites. If you have any wonderful ideas about how to improve these, I would be happy to see them. Again, I think they are useful as they are now and don't think it will be productive if/when certain editors attack.... :) --doncram 22:10, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

:{{tps}} I have found some sources for the fountain and placed them on its talk page. Chris857 (talk) 22:32, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

::Thanks Chris857! And thanks Cbl62 for your edits at several of these.

::I've since created a few more short articles on archeological sites and/or newly listed NRHP sites within List of RHPs in Burleigh and List of RHPs in Cass, too. Just about done starting articles for North Dakota, just a few more in Cass remaining.

::I note your edit on Seiler Building, cbl, and think it's fine but not clearly needed. What the standards should be is simply not clear. Here both before and after versions are fine in terms of adequacy of credit to avoid appearance of plagiarism; often edits to change from good quotes that completely avoid plagiarism actually introduce plagiarism (state of inadequate credit being given to original authors for their ideas and for their wording) or change the meaning unintentionally. Thanks, will keep thinking.

::I've just found Research Plot 2 and Research Plot 30 at North Dakota State University as likely good candidates for DYKs, about continuous cultivation of wheat and flax, respectively, allowing for research not feasible without the high levels of pathogens present from continuous cultivation. I'd be very happy to have help developing either or both of these, especially! Cheers, --doncram 14:55, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi. I wonder if you'd care to research and edit about builder George Feick, and various associated sons and/or brothers. I think architect George Feick, Jr. (currently a redlink) was son of the builder. George Jr. was apparently a principal in "Purcell, Feick & Elmslie", currently covered just a little bit in Purcell & Elmslie article which downplays his role. An Adam and maybe a philip and others are involved. I currently think that maybe any constructing-only sons/brothers should be redirected to, and covered in, the George Feick article. And maybe the Purcell & Elmslie article should be moved to "Purcell, Feick & Elmslie" and expanded and that George, Jr. should be redirected there. I'd be happy to defer to whatever you might judge, if you'd care to consider this web. I may or may not soon proceed on starting all the linked NRHP articles, which could end up collecting more relevant information. regards, --doncram 17:47, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi Cbl62. I would appreciate it if you would consider editing the Jules Leffland article, which I started a few wikibreaks ago, and which included long quotes that were commented out by another editor. I happened across it again and have edited slightly, including restoring the quotes. I don't recall exactly what I had intended with the article, perhaps i had meant to edit it further myself and to use some of that material in other ways. But I would be relieved if you could happen to be interested in editing it, instead. I may work at starting linked articles to make more material available, such as built dates for the architect's works. Thanks also for your developing the Walter Mickle Smith article. --doncram 22:04, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

:Thank you for developing that Jules Leffland article. Thanks also for your research and editing at John Y. Hill. I note your commenting at Talk:John Y. Hill#Other John Hills and responded there. Maybe I was semi-legalistic / defensive in my response there. I do appreciate your attention and your apparent interest in development of articles on pretty obscure architects and builders that I have been working on. I assume you have some real interest in the challenge of establishing these, and are motivated by the Good Thing of providing this info for wikipedia readers, and also I experience the timing of your contributions as generally be helpful to me personally. I don't know if more needs to be said. Thanks.

:I went ahead and started an article on John J. Hill, too, to which your attention would also be appreciated if you are interested. :) I dunno; i think i might not have started that one if I didn't think you were interested and following, because it falls below a 5 NRHP threshold that I am kinda inclined to stick to, for the most part, unless I happen to find my way to pretty good sources. I don't want to push you to do work if you don't like it, but your following and your research skills, conveyed without complaints could somewhat influence my threshold. If you want to comment, please do. I do expect that John J. Hill is wikipedia-notable and it is a good thing to get it started, though. Cheers, --doncram 22:11, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

::T.S. Christian could use help. It currently functions a bit like a disambiguation page, covering builder(s) in Pennsylvania and in North Carolina, possibly the same person or possibly two different persons. I have found MPS documents but no birth & death dates or other particulars. I think it is okay/good/useful to have as a wikipedia article on an amorphous-but-important small topic, as is, but it is unusual and I am sure others would prefer for there to be more detail and more certainty. --doncram 10:14, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

You're doing good work Cbl62 but I've also found some of your edit summary comments to be a little accusatory in tone. Bristol Hotel was largely written after it was nommed for deletion. The way you are editing looks as if you're suspicious of something. Technically hotel articles should have information on amenities and one can mention the price of the most expensive room or something. I've authored articles such as Hotel Ritz Paris so generally I know what I'm talking about in regards to avoiding "wiki travel" like content. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:20, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

The brief on Bland Group in my opinion is important in putting it in context and realising who actually owns it...It would be different if it was any old company but I think it ties the hotel to the Rock's history and puts it in context..♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:20, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

== If you're interested... ==

While doing some research to find out who W. C. Dowd was it turns out he was a prominent newspaper publisher and North Carolina politician back in his day (after playing on and captaining one the first Wake Forest football teams) - even serving as Speaker of the North Carolina House of Representatives in 1911. Surely there must be a bunch of sources on him out there (the Wake Forest one I cited briefly mentions his university activity, but a quick Google search brings up a lot more). I've done some US state politicians in the past but it seems unlikely that I'll do this now (then I'll forget), so if you'd like to take this up when you have the time, of course, feel free. – Connormah (talk) 06:25, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

Cbl62, I found a couple more identity cases with early college football coaches:

• H. T. Collier (American football coach at Georgia Tech) and H. T. Collier (American football coach at Tulane)...same guy? That would mean he coached both Georgia Tech and Tulane in 1899. Perhaps, he was a traveling/consultant-type coach, a la Pop Warner?

• Frank Gorton coached football and basketball at Rutgers and VMI. The NCAA database has him coaching basketball at Otterbein in 1917–18. The Otterbein football media guide lists their coach in 1917 as "F. H. Goslon." Is this Frank Gorton?

Perhaps you have access to old newspaper articles that might clear this up? Thanks, oh, and nice work on all the Rutgers bios over the past few days. All the best, Jweiss11 (talk) 02:22, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

:(moved from above) Here's the other one above that could use come clearing up as well, thanks in advance. :Hi Cbl, one more thing if you don't mind - could former Hillsdale coach Nate Duffy be the same person as Ignatius M. Duffy, former Alma coach? The yearbook says Nate Duffy was from Michigan. – Connormah (talk) 00:18, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

I need to flesh out the article Southwest Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year because another editor thought it'd be cute to create a kitten, but I was wondering if you could assist me in determining some past winners. There is no one source that has a comprehensive last of yearly winners, so it's a piecemeal work in progress (much like the SWAC POY article).

I notice you've been changing scores on all the Michigan team pages to reflect the lower score first where Michigan lost. This was discussed previously at the College Football project, and the decision was made not to do it that way. Can you please self-revert all of your changes?
