Massive wave of vandalism on Rockwood, Tennessee
Hey Brian, I’ve noticed a large amount of vandalism and ridiculous traffic on Rockwood, Tennessee. We may need to temporarily semi-protect this article, to prevent further vandalism. Averagetennesseejoe (talk) 01:54, 27 December 2017 (UTC)

Washington Bogart Cooper
Hello. I see you uploaded many paintings by Washington Bogart Cooper on Commons. Would you please consider uploading this one?Zigzig20s (talk) 15:42, 5 April 2018 (UTC)


 * It shouldn't be a problem, but will it be used in an article? That's normally why I upload them.  BrineStans (talk) 20:43, 9 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes: Joseph Thorpe Elliston. (I'm also looking for someone to upload this picture, taken from this list, for Burlington.)Zigzig20s (talk) 20:52, 9 April 2018 (UTC)
 * By the way, if you can find more portraits/pictures of the Elliston family, please upload them too. Thanks!Zigzig20s (talk) 21:07, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

Pictures of East Knox County areas?
Hello, I have created and I am in the works of expanding several East Knox County pages. I have created the pages regarding the Thorn Grove community near the Midway Road/I-40 interchange and the controversial commercial development project there, the Midway Business Park.

I was wondering since that development is nearing completion of its first phase, and the ever so explosion of residential developments in Eastern Knox County, I was curious if you could take pictures of the Thorn Grove/Midway area, and the in-progress business park?

Thanks, AppalachianCentrist (talk) 23:53, 26 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Sure thing, though it may be a few weeks before I'm back in the area. BrineStans (talk) 01:12, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

Bean Station, Tennessee
Hi there, at Bean Station, Tennessee I notice you changed the Commons link from inline to banner. I had previously changed the link to inline per Template:Commons category: "Do not place this template in a section containing columns without floating left". Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 06:33, 6 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Mags: That's cool.  My browser was just rendering a single column when I made the edit, but stretching it out a bit shows two columns.
 * All good. I wrote my first list article today, List of Chevrolet Corvette owners.  What do you think? Magnolia677 (talk) 15:32, 6 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Damn. It took all of 7 hours for it to land at AfD.  BrineStans (talk) 00:28, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
