 * Added best major championship to existing golfer articles using golfmajorchampionships.com as the resource
 * Golfers with existing pages to expand and/or reference and/or cleanup: Ben Crenshaw (references, cleanup); Jonathan Kaye (expand, cleanup); Tom Kite (cleanup); Bruce Lietzke (add references); Davis Love III (references, cleanup); Moe Norman (references, cleanup - much fluff exists and incorporate career highlights into prose); Scott Simpson (golfer) (add references- use the USC reference on Stadler's page)
 * Non-bio golf pages to do or work on: San Francisco Open - reference contains a lot of good information; create List of golfers to win their debut Champions Tour event (Wikitable:name|year|tournament name|runner(s)-up|comments)
 * Non-golf bio pages to do or existing pages to work on: expand Dempsey Barron good material in references on his page;Barton Corbin (categories-American people convicted of murder, American serial killers, American prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment); Daryl Dragon do an early years section; Thomas Ryman for whom Ryman Auditorium in Nashville is named; expand Rex Morgan (basketball player) (good bio on JU HoF); cleanup references in Walter O'Keefe & Edward G. Robinson; cleanup & reference Dwight Stephenson, Jack Lambert (American football); cleanup and expand Ivan Mestrovic; add an early years section to Larry Little and Tony LaRussa; add a personal life section to Beth Behrs; expand and cleanup Edward T.

 * Periodically check: Most wanted articles and look for people, places and things to add
 * Periodically check: Requested articles/Sports for golfers, tournaments, awards, clubs to add
 * Periodically check Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Shark articles by quality for shark articles that need improvement
 * Systematic review of articles I started: Completed 9/20/07
 * Also high priority project Will soon need to start archiving talk page --> see Help:Archiving a talk page; and consolidating user page

Golfer page cleanup/WikiGnome duties

 * Watch for the use of redundant qualifiers attached to present tense verbs that need no qualification. e.g. Nicklaus currently holds the record...--> Nicklaus holds the record...
 * Common nicknames aren't needed in the nickname section of the infobox (e.g. Kenny <--> Kenneth)
 * User:Carptrash has a compilation of 23 POV/weasel words to BOLO for in the first section of his userpage.

Editing Reminders

 * Place these at the top of the article or section
 * Use {inuse} (while actively editing new articles) so those well meaning but annoying people who monitor new page creation will not destoy subsequent edits, and {underconstruction} (for brief periods between major edits during the construction phase)
 * Use {merge} for short articles --> merge into a larger one
 * Use {npov} for bias; also used are {POV-section} and {POV-intro}

 * Use {Expert-subject|subject name (e.g. military history)|date} when article needs expert attention
 * Use {reqphoto} on the talk page to request photos be placed in articles
 * Use {expandsect} when a section requires expansion
 * Use {prune} when an article or section needs condensing, summarizing or reconstructing
 * Use {lead too long} when the introductory section is too long
 * Use {refimprove} for lack of verifiability
 * Use {ibid} when Ibid. and loc. cit. appear in footnotes
 * Use {cleanup-refs} when footnotes are of inconsistent style
 * Use {cleanup-link rot} when bare urls are used rather than proper in-line citations
 * Use {cleanup-rewrite} when article does not comport with Wikipedia's quality standards
 * Use {cleanup-reorganize} when the article shows promise, i.e. good information just poorly organized
 * Use {nofootnotes} when articles contain external links or list of references but no in-text citations
 * Use {timefact} when a chronology source is needed
 * Use {notenglish} when encountering an article written in a foreign language on english Wikipedia
 * Use {citations broken} to tag an entire article or section in the same manner {dead link} is used as an individual tag
 * Place these in-line
 * Use {fact} for citation needed, {cite quote} for a quote needing a citation and {failed verification} for not in citation given
 * Use {dubious} when something just sounds too much like a crock
 * Use {who} when you come across a phrase like "Some observers have said..." or "They say..."
 * Use {says who} in similar instances as above where no source is mentioned
 * Use {weasel words} for evasive, ambiguous, misleading content
 * Use {lopsided} when an opinion needs balancing
 * Yes_check.svg or or ✅
 * &hellip;, &mdash;, –

New Orleans museum ship
Re: In 1992, during a visit to New Orleans, I took a river tour. I noticed, on the opposite bank a mile or so upriver from the city, a WWII Escort "Jeep" Carrier. The tour guide said that it was in the process of being turned into a memorial/museum. I saw some photographs of New Orleans- post Katrina. I didn't see the ship. Whatever happened to it?Hokeman 18:17, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I dont know of this - what is a WWII Escort "Jeep" Carrier? - is it a Landing craft tank or smaller like a LCVP? May be able to track it down still. - mervyn 12:04, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

An escort or "jeep" carrier was the smallest type of aircraft carrier used in WWII. They were used primarily for convoy escort duty in the Atlantic; although a few were also used in the Pacific. Some fought heroic actions (e.g. Taffy 3 in the Battle of Leyte Gulf.) I have tried everything I could think of to find that ship- internet searches,looking through old photo albums- to no avail. I still need to hear from my buddy who went on the trip with me to see if he has any photo's. If I find out anything, I'll keep you posted. Thanks for your help.Hokeman 17:21, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
