Images
Thanks for uploading the images on progression. Since the images are not photos, using JPG is a bad idea. Can you please recreate them as PNGs and reupload them? Also, one copy of an image is enough. Again thanks. WP 06:21, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 6
Hi. When you recently edited Charles Smith Hamilton, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fond du Lac (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Percy Goetschius
Greetings. I noticed in 2006 you contributed this to the Percy Goetschius article: "Goetschius believed that, since the upper tone of the fifth is a harmonic of the lower, a chord rooted on the upper tone demands to be “resolved” by progressing to the chord rooted on the lower tone. Moreover, this theory is extended to other chords in a key, so that the normal tendency of a chord (triad or seventh chord) in a key is to progress to the chord rooted a fifth lower. The sole weakness of this theory is its failure to account for the importance of the subdominant triad IV, a chord frequently used in musical practice.  Although Goetschius acknowledges the importance of the IV harmony elsewhere in his writings, it does not appear to have a place in his theory of harmonic progression." In one example I saw of an analysis of his of a IV triad, he considered it was in fact a root-less 7th on II (so F-C-D in C major would be D-F-C-D but missing the root D). Have you seen examples where he explicitly analyzed a IV triad as filling a true IV function? Contact Basemetal   here  22:14, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Contact Basemetal   here  18:34, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

The only place I've seen Goetschius refer to a "true" IV chord is in the early part of his "Material Used in Musical Composition," where he identifies the I, V, and IV, as "Primary Triads," saying that the others, the ii, iii, vi, and viii, are "interspersed occasionally for the sake of variety." That's why it's kind of disconcerting, several chapters later, to find him constructing a ii7 with an omitted root and then claiming that this is the real origin of the IV triad, even going to say that the discovery that the IV is really an abbreviated ii7 proves that "no chord can be built upon the fifth below the tonic." I'm afraid it all gets a little self-contradictory.User talk:Dr-t


 * You answered my question on May 26 2013 on my talk page right after I'd asked you. Then you answered it again here on your talk page four months later (Septemeber 15 2013) for some reason. Contrary to the other one, this one I've just discovered about three years late. Thank you for both answers. Is it ok if I add your answer here to your answer there, so they're both in the same place? Basemetal  08:02, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

Ford–Lodge interchange
Do you have the missing details for the article from The Detroit News that you cited in Ford–Lodge interchange? Do you have any other sources for use in the article? It would be best to have the article title and page number plus the name of the author if it had a byline.

I'm also concerned because this is borderline on the notability threshold as it is written. WP:GNG, the General Notability Guideline, state that we need "significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject" for inclusion as a stand-alone article. The one MDOT source would not be independent, and a single news article isn't "significant coverage". As written, I could summarize the key details into a couple of sentences in the history sections of both Interstate 94 in Michigan and M-10 (Michigan highway) and have the article deleted. Individual interchanges aren't normally considered notable unless there are more sources that are actually about the interchange and not just mentioned it cited in the article, and it would help to demonstrate that this structure actually has a specific name.
