Disambiguation link notification for September 3
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ohio State Route 2, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Willoughby. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

File permission problem with File:Mentor Cardinals Logo (as of 2015).jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Mentor Cardinals Logo (as of 2015).jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 18:39, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into other pages. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. If you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. You also need to include the references when you copy material. Thank you. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 23:17, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. I didn't realize it because my main goal was to fix all of the links for each route, I didn't realize I would be working myself at 100 articles per hour. Special:Contributions/Cards84664 Cards84664 (talk) 23:24, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
 * It appears that you are still coping and pasting material directly from other articles as you create these new articles on former Ohio state highways without providing full attribution of the source. Again please read Copying within Wikipedia and provide the source of where you are getting your text. Most of these highways were not really notable enough for a full article at the time I created the list articles; unless you are adding significantly new information to these former roads, I would suggest keeping the lists as they are unless there is a wealth of new or uncovered info to split into an article. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 17:02, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Ohio 872 Sign Google Earth (Screenshot).png
Thanks for uploading File:Ohio 872 Sign Google Earth (Screenshot).png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  Imzadi 1979  →  13:37, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Ohio 872 Sign Google Earth (Screenshot).png
 Thanks for uploading File:Ohio 872 Sign Google Earth (Screenshot).png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:38, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

Former Ohio state routes
In short, I'm redirecting all of them back to their places in the lists for a couple of reasons.
 * 1) The content for each is rather short now, meaning you've created 20 stubs. None of the new articles expands upon the content in the lists, so we're saying the same thing in two places, and it's just plain easier to maintain the few list articles that hundreds of new stubs.
 * 2) The content for each was copied and pasted out of the lists and into the separate articles. That's problematic for copyright/licensing reasons if you don't do it properly.

Those lists are a valid way to handle the topic. We even have a project guideline on them call the "Rockland County Scenario" at WP:USRD/RCS.  Imzadi 1979  →   04:23, 3 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Since you have continued to copy within Wikipedia without attribution, which is legally required, despite being warned and the articles do not expand upon the lists, I have assisted in redirecting them. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 05:23, 3 October 2015 (UTC)

October 2015
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Ohio State Route 2, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. –Fredddie™ 00:59, 29 October 2015 (UTC)

Links in List of State Routes in Ohio
Hi, I see you've been contributing to this list. One problem you may already have noticed is that links like Ohio State Route 6 are not helpful to readers because that route number has been used more than once, and each of the routes that bore that number is described in a different Wikipedia article. I've already fixed the links to this particular route number by adding the "dab" parameter to each Routelist row template. It would be very helpful if you could do this for the remaining re-used routes. Thanks. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 22:00, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Okay, as soon I am done adding old routes to the table (or someone could assist me) thanks for letting me know. Cards84664 (talk) 02:21, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Ohio State Route 290 (Disumbauguation)


A tag has been placed on Ohio State Route 290 (Disumbauguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
 * disambiguates two or fewer extant Wikipedia pages and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
 * disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Recent edit to List of heads of state of France
I've reverted your edit to List of heads of state of France, which removed large amounts of apperently qualitative info-box content without an edit summery. If you feel your edit should be reinstated, could you please expand on your position? Thank you! Nigholith (talk) 04:04, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

The talk page discussion verdict was that it had to be just short descriptions. Cards84664 (talk) 12:01, 21 December 2015 (UTC)


 * I don't see that discussion; are you referring to Sugested Merge of Articles to List of heads of state of France? My main reservation is that your edit left most of the section headers in tact, but stripped most of the content leaving many sections blank. Did you mean to replace that content with less verbose content? Kind regards, Nigholith (talk) 19:01, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

The discussion is a different talk page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:French_Heads_of_state Some of the sections were only left with headers because they only had tables. Cards84664 (talk) 20:03, 21 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Ah, I see now; thanks for clearing that up. Hmm, that is a pickle; on the one hand the article is certainly large and unwieldy, and on the other hand removing the listing content leaves large holes in the article with those empty sections headers... Plus I imagine there will be some readers of the article that would like to see a chronological list of heads without diving through all the dynasty pages.
 * The way I see it, the article loses a lot of it's purpose if the content is stripped out and left with the section headers and the current short descriptions alone; I don't see that as a viable option, do you? We could have a short description with a main for those that don't already have it, like Robertian dynasty; really that should all be main linked in any case. Alternatively we could just collapse the lists, as shown in my sandbox. What do you think? Nigholith (talk) 08:37, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

I think it would be good to collapse the lists for now, until we get a final recommendation from other people on the talk page. Cards84664 (talk) 12:13, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I agree; implemented. We also have a side-effect of all the merging done on that page, the talk page is linking to Talk:List of Presidents of France, which is perhaps why the conversation on your linked discussion has dried up; I'll look into fixing that.
 * Might I also suggest that for future edits you describe your intent in the edit summary, ideally with a link to the talk-page conversation if applicable? The lack of an edit summary—as in your first edit on the page—raises red flags for people like me who review edits. Anyway, glad we could find a solution to this problem. Thanks! Nigholith (talk) 13:28, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I've solved that talk-page redirect issue, and attempted to present the situation on it. Nigholith (talk) 13:52, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

Infobox browsers
Per WP:USRD/STDS, the browser is supposed to point to the previous and next state highway numbers regardless of type. We don't split them up by I/US/SR types, and instead mix all three types of state highways together in one long chain. This has been the way it's been done for many years, so if you wish to change that, I'd suggest that you open a discussion about changing the project standards.

Additionally, if the browsers are listed outside of the infobox, they'd be put at the very bottom of the article, not at the bottom of a state-specific section. In theory, the RD isn't the part of a national-level article that pertains to a state as the history and RJL sections should have content about that highway in a state too.  Imzadi 1979  →   23:38, 30 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I will consider opening a discussion, because it sounds like putting route lists for Interstates, US Routes, and state routes all on one page. (Also, with the current standards, that means I have roughly 700 state route articles to correct now)
 * Cards84664 (talk) 00:33, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Screw it, I'll get on that momentarily
 * Cards84664 (talk) 00:44, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
 * It's only the browsers, not the individual list pages that are impacted. For example, List of Interstate Highways in Michigan, List of U.S. Highways in Michigan and List of state trunklines in Michigan are still separate, but M-1 (Michigan highway) points forward to U.S. Route 2 in Michigan as the next article, and back to Interstate 696 as the previous one. This pattern of using the next number in numerical order, applying the standard Interstate–US–state precedence continues throughout the collection of articles on state highways. (Also, don't reply in the middle of someone's comments as it disconnects the first paragraph of my comments from my signature and could confuse other editors later as to who was exactly saying what.)  Imzadi 1979  →   00:53, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

Oh ok I get it now.Cards84664 (talk) 00:59, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

Revert
Regarding this reversion, you don't seem to know why I had changed that back. In short, according to MOS:RJL, the shields are supposed to appear as a group at the front of the line, not in the middle of the line. By splitting that into two invocations of jct, you make the I-271 shield appear in the middle of the line in violation of the MOS, yet by merging them back together, it appears at the front where it is supposed to be.  Imzadi 1979  →   07:38, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Also, we don't need to use the I-480N shield at the top of the infobox for the Interstate list for Ohio. The designation is not recognized by FHWA, just ODOT, and FHWA (along with AASHTO) is in charge of recognizing Interstate Highway designations. As I understand it, the shield is only used on the enhanced mile markers. It's not used as full-size reassurance markers nor on guide signage, so it's essentially as unsigned as the now-former M-554 (which only appeared on two street blades in its brief existence). Two markers, one each for two- and three-digit examples is plenty, unless we're displaying a small chronological assortment or including business routes.  Imzadi 1979  →   17:08, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

NY Route list
Howdy. My name is Mitchazenia, a long-time editor of NY stuff. I hate to tell you this, but invoking be bold (WP:BOLD) and reverted the entire set of changes between you and the other editor. Your new chart has blown the parser limit, which is why it keeps getting stuck at 232. The other issue prevalent here is that you eliminated all the decommissioned routes, which is incorrect to do. At this point, if you want to try again, do this in a sandbox. Mitch 32 (I can have oodles of charm when I want to.) 20:48, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

Draft:List of state routes in New York
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Draft:List of state routes in New York, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: List of state routes in New York. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot was mistaken and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 22:00, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Digimon Adventure Tri Determination logo.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Digimon Adventure Tri Determination logo.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 17:05, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

Photo watermarks
Could you please retake the photos that have the weird watermark like on the right of this picture? File:Signage of US 6 - Ohio SR 174 Intersection.jpg is another photo with the same watermark. –Fredddie™ 02:08, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Done! Cards84664 (talk) 02:41, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

Please Stop
Please stop reverting my edits. I spent a lot of time fixing the pages and adding new, relevant information. The I-294 page had several issues before I fixed it, including a lack of citations in some areas. Please stop. Thank You! NBA2030 (talk) 19:52, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * @NBA2030 Here you lack to explain why your edits are really needed, since it was promptly fixed by Imzadi1979 (With the formatting). Since you have a proven history of leaving out citations and consistantly reverting articles to your content without consensus, further actions will be treated as vandalism under the WP:3RR policy. Thank you. Cards84664 (talk) 20:02, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * With all due respect, that is absolutely ludicrous. It is not vandalism what I did. I put in citations all the time, and no one has objected to my revisions until now. With regards to the I-294 article, I was simply cleaning it up and revising the history section to make more sense (I included some new citations FYI). The formatting was already like that before I edited the article. For you to threaten me like this is ridiculous. NBA2030 (talk) 20:07, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * @NBA2030 I didn't say it was vandalism, I said it was just fixed by the very person that already told you the formatting had to be different. And yet you revert it back anyway. Just leave it be, because as soon as the tollway merger is performed, it will all be rewritten anyway. Cards84664 (talk) 20:12, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * IF it gets merged. And you can always fix the formatting. No one told me the formatting had to be different on that article. The I-294 needs to be rewritten, it is redundant and there is un-cited material. I don't see anything wrong with the edits I made. NBA2030 (talk) 20:20, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * @NBA2030 See your own talk page. You keep going against the "Formatting suggestions" and other various minor things. I recommend you look at WP:USRD/STDS Cards84664 (talk) 20:24, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Again, until now, no one has objected to my edits. It was a couple of (really minor) formatting errors that could be fixed without reverting the entire article. My edits were focused on cleaning up the history section and removing redundant and irrelevant information. Instead of reverting the article back to the messy state it was in, how about simply fixing the edits? NBA2030 (talk) 20:41, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * @NBA2030 Again, The edits were fixed by Imzadi1979, not me, so you should send him a message instead, because I'm getting sick of this endless argument.

Best regards, Cards84664 (talk) 20:59, 19 June 2016 (UTC)

Please avoid changing "Trump" to "Drumpf"
Hi Cards84664. In one of your recent edits, you changed the word "Trump" to "Drumpf". I assume that this was unintentional and caused by having the Drumpfinator extension enabled. To avoid this kind of mistake in the future, please disable the extension before editing articles that mention Trump. Thank you. —Granger (talk · contribs) 07:18, 24 June 2016 (UTC)

Revision undo?
Hi, I'd like to know if there was a reason that my edits on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_69_in_Texas#Exit_list were undid by you? I'm fairly new to editing on Wikipedia and only pretty much use the visual editor, so I'd like to know if I have done something wrong. I was about to add a few more when I noticed it was missing. Thanks for replying!

Rnjohnson18 (talk) 02:38, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Note you need a reasonable source and the specific decimals with each intersection/ exit. Cards84664 (talk) 16:57, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
 * the reference is more important the decimal point. –Fredddie™ 21:50, 26 July 2016 (UTC)

Yet another revision undo...
Hai. Why did you revert my changes to "Interstate 85 in North Carolina" -> "Exit list"?

Thanks, 168.215.131.150 (talk) 14:55, 4 August 2016 (UTC) also on wikipedia as "ncfriend"


 * @168.215.131.150 That stuff dosen't belong in the list. Also, if you have an account, only edit with "ncfriend" Cards84664 (talk) 16:29, 4 August 2016 (UTC)

OH Turnpike Exit 218
But the signs at this Google Street View post-Toll Plaza, exiting off the Turnpike, have the control city for I-76W at Akron, I-80E as Youngstown. The control cities for the reverse directions are "Penna Tpk" and Cleveland, respectively. No Niles going eastbound or westbound on the Turnpike itself.

Also are you seriously contending that I-80E at Exit 218 is signed for Cleveland and Toledo? Caradhras Aiguo (talk) 16:34, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

Ohio Route 2 in Cleveland's Public Square
Do you have evidence that the modern SR-2 (as opposed to the original SR-2 which was replaced by US-20 when the U.S. highway system was created) ever made it to Public Square? If so, please add it to the Public Square article. It can't be ODH's maps since I just checked ODOT's archive and those are too vague, at least the fronts of them which are only what ODOT posted online.

As an aside, I strongly recommend that you preview articles when editing them; please read through Help:Show preview and That's why we preview, kids. Mapsax (talk) 15:32, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
 * From what I know, the Memorial Shoreway wasn't done until the 30s, so the only reasonable explanation is that SR 2 was in the square from 1926 to 1930-1935. What I'm also researching is that there was a SR 2 alt on lakeside from W 6th to East 9th, but I'm not mentioning it until I can figure out how long it was there.

Ohio Route 2 in Cleveland's Public Square part 2
The pre-US highway SR 2 did not terminate there. It took the same route that the new US 20 took from the Toledo area east to Pennsylvania. I've removed the statement about SR 2 altogether until the research is done. Remember that conjecture won't cut it. Mapsax (talk) 02:25, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

Arkansas highways
Hi. I'm not sure what's going on with List of Arkansas state highways, but here are the maps I used to discover Highway 19.

As you can see, Highway 19 existed on the map for only a year before being replaced by Highway 127 between Old Alabam and Forum, which remains today. It was probably renumbered since there already was a Highway 19 in South Arkansas, and they didn't like to duplicate back then. Although it seems odd, the Highway 14 entry I added to the table seems correct. Let me know if you disagree. Brandonrush (talk) 20:08, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
