That's cool, I appreciate the query, because I have been slowly trying to clean up the Illinois cat on Commons. When I first started here (which was only last September--so don't worry about being new) I just put the images in the NRHP cat on commons, they eventually all got moved to the Illinois cat but I still haven't been able to get them all in there own cats. I will help where I can with creating Registered Historic Places in X County, Illinois cats and adding the places to the right cats. I see you're from Illinois. I live in DeKalb County but was born and raised in McLean County, you can see some related collaborations on my user page. Mostly my effort has been concentrated on northern Illinois (since that is where I live) but I have also worked some on improving McLean County related articles. Lately my work has focused on the Black Hawk War. There's some links on my user page, as I said. Sorry to be so long winded, thanks for your work. IvoShandor 19:06, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
 * No bother. I am pretty much obsessed with the National Register, architecture and historic preservation so if you need any assistance feel free to ask. If you don't know about the HAARGIS Database, check it out. There is a lot of information on there and you can query National Register listings by county and city, sometimes the site is buggy but it usually works (persistence pays off generally). That database has a ton of the National Register Nomination Forms digitized for many of the sites throughout the state as well as some other documentation which includes some non-Register properties too. Great resource. In general I wouldn't trust the website nationalregisterofhistoricplaces.com, it seems to be quite off sometimes. I use the NRIS official database whose errors are usually confined to addresses or misspellings. Also if you need any copy editing (you mentioned you were accustomed to technical writing) let me know, I am decent at it, and have worked as an editor in the past. : ) It is good to see another Illinois person active around here.

 * I wonder myself about the copyright of the photographs and slides. You're right many of them are those that were submitted with the National Register application. The National Register themselves are good about responding to emails by the way. You can tell which ones are NR photos and slides, they usually say NR slide or NR photo. I bet they become property of the federal government upon submission, so are likely PD, but we should get a confirmation on that first. IvoShandor 20:12, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

List of Registered Historic Places in Illinois
Hi, I have noticed that you have worked on a lot of the historic places in Illinois. I was wondering if you would be able to assist me. I am currently in the process of creating a new list for List of Registered Historic Places in Illinois on my user page. I am going to try and get this list to Feature List status, but to do that I need to have 70% of the red links linked to articles. I was hoping that you might be able to assist me in the counties you said you are mostly interested in working such as Lake and Cook. I would like to go for DYK status on them (meaning 1,500 bytes of text) as we do each article, but we don't have too. If you are interested, please let me know. Thanks for your time!--Kranar drogin 03:51, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called G LeTourneau. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name G LeTourneau~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:58, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
