Hoaxes and legends of upstate NY
Careful - I didn't create the article, I just moved it to a proper capitalization. DS (talk) 19:32, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Whoops, I'll move it to the proper place. ~ Gosox ( 55 )( 55 ) 19:33, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, that. We had a near edit conflict, I think. I prodded while you were moving and so I proded the redirect page, unintentionally.  I also had it on auto-notify, although that is a bit buggy.~ Gosox ( 55 )( 55 ) 19:39, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

Joseph Smith, Jr. GAN
I notice that you are requesting a second opinion on Joseph Smith, Jr.. What aspect, specifically, were you hoping for additional input on? --erachima talk 11:26, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Neutrality, mainly. I think otherwise it's all set, but there has been some debate.  I don't think this kind of article can ever be perfect, but GA isn't supposed to be.  Is it good enough?  Is it stable enough? ~ Gosox ( 55 )( 55 ) 20:13, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright, I'll see what I can do, but probably won't have time to look at it until this evening. --erachima talk 20:24, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, and I almost forgot: this is my second time reviewing, so I'm not sure how in-depth I need to go. Do I need to check all 400+ refs, for instance? ~ Gosox ( 55 )( 55 ) 20:26, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Sheer impracticality says no, just pick a representative sample. You do have to check all the images for policy compliance though. --erachima talk 20:54, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

I have given my opinion. Final call is, of course, yours. --erachima talk 07:40, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

stubs
Thanks for leaving your large template on  my  talk  page, but  I'm  not  exactly  a beginner here! We all (or most  of us) have our specialities or areas of expertise. Mine should be clear from my  user page. I prefer to  leave stub  sorting  to  the experts who  can do  it  in  next to  no  time, but  you  can be sure, as you  will  also  see from  my  contribs, that  I  always add the correct  stub types if I  happen  to know them. --Kudpung (talk) 14:48, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, after checking out your user page, I  realise that  you  are quite new here and doing  a grand job. I didn't  intend to  sound bitey. However, one tip before tagging anything, is to  find out  a bit  more first about  who or what you  are going  to  get  mad at;) Keep up  the good work on  NPP, it's very  badly  needed.--Kudpung (talk) 14:52, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:16, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

WikiProject United States Government
Greetings. I noticed that you are one of the members of WikiProject United States Government that are still active so I wanted to ask you a question. It appears that this project is mostly inactive aside from what the members might be doing independently. I was considering suggesting that this project be pulled in under WikiProject United States and wanted to solicit comments from some of this projects members before doing so. As with Washington DC and the others the project would for the most part maintain its own independence but I believe this would benefit both projects. What do you think about this? --Kumioko (talk) 00:03, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Greetings, It was recently suggested that WikiProject United States History might be inactive or semiactive and that it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States.

Socialist Party USA: Please withdraw GA status
Hi Gosox!

You granted "Good Article" status to Socialist Party USA. Please review my edits to this article and note that the article was at that time very far from GA status. In particular, it has problems with gross errors of fact, plagiarism, unreliable sources, and apparent conflict of interest. There were also gross errors of scholarship, with Potemkin footnotes to sources that contradicted the claims of the article.

If you agree with these problems, then I believe that you must withdraw the GA status. I lack the energy to fix the rest of the problems. The second half of the article read like an advertising campaign, with cherry-picked items promoting the views of the party. It is not a neutral account using the most reliable high quality sources. It is improper that such an article, even with my corrections to its first half, continue to have an unwarranted GA label.

Sincerely, Kiefer .Wolfowitz 06:33, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

Coordinator sought for the US National Archives WikiProject
Greetings, WikiProject US National Archives member!

We are seeking a coordinator to help reboot the project and work on new initiatives! The role is modeled after other Wikiproject coordinators, like the WikiProject Military History coordinators. The coordinator will work with the Wikipedian in Residence to organize and increase participation in the WikiProject, with the goal that the WikiProject is an active space for collaboration maintained by and for the Wikipedia editors, rather than the National Archives.

Please see the full information at GLAM/NARA/Coordinator and contact me is you have any questions. Feel free to pass this note along to any interested parties. Thanks! Dominic·t 21:03, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

RE: Joe Kearns Goodwin
That argument has been around a while. Unfortunately, if we just left every article that "could" be improved, we'd have a lot of junk laying around. We could have restored it upon request, however. Rjd0060 (talk) 05:09, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Joe Kearns Goodwin, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Michael Barrett (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.
