BB close up
Nice shot. Perhaps do another one showing a small group of BBs and it could replace the older picture of the plastic bag full at the top. -- Ari 23:03, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I tried to do something pretty cool, and I had 2 different kinds of BBs. Hustvedt 23:53, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Looks much better, nice work. -- Ari 23:54, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I added a picture actually showing a BB Gun, since it is the "BB gun" page... Hustvedt 01:27, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Deleting photos
Please don't delete photos from aircraft articles, like you did with Ayres Thrush. I have restored the existing photo in addition to leaving your new photo on the page. That page has lots of room for more photos. If it gets full then more can be put in a gallery on the page. The public domain photo you removed in particular was there to show the radial engine installation and the photo you replaced it with does not do that. - Ahunt (talk) 18:25, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I will not do that again. Hustvedt (talk) 18:34, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
 * No problem - we have room for tons more photos! - Ahunt (talk) 19:48, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Adding photos
Hey, thanks for adding photos to List of RHPs in Boulder and i think some other places under List of RHPs in CO. i like the "shool" pic especially. :) doncram (talk) 02:19, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
 * No problem, look for more in the coming weeks. I will be trying to visit all of the RHPs that have articles near Boulder, and taking pictures of them. Hustvedt (talk) 03:15, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
 * About Boulder, I'd be thrilled if you could visit the Chautauqua(sp?) historic district and take a series of pics of its small cabins. If i recall correctly, the Chautauqua article just has a not-very-pretty picture of its auditorium building.  Adding several pics to an article is okay, although sometimes best is done via use of a Commons gallery.  You can get a free copy of the National Register nomination document for the district, or for any other NRHP, by request to nr_reference (at) nps.gov.  I like ur Denver pics too. doncram (talk) 23:15, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the Colorado Chautauqua article is lacking in pictures, and does only have a fairly ugly picture of the auditorium. I can certainly add to that, no problem. Hustvedt (talk) 00:04, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
 * You were busy on Sunday! Great pictures :-)  I especially like the high school, with the armory coming in second.  I'm visiting northern Colorado over spring break; hopefully I can get some decent opportunities... Nyttend (talk) 19:20, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
 * First day of touring today: we went to the Chautauqua and drove around a little in the mountains east of the city. Although I didn't get the cabins, I took a picture of the auditorium itself (although not as good as the current one), but also for the entire National Historic Landmark itself, I got the main office building; and afterward, got both sites in Salina and a few otherwise — although it was annoying when I realised that we'd gone past some bridges and over another (on CO 7) that are listed.  Perhaps that's tomorrow's job...I'm in Longmont for the week, so hoping to get the sites on 4th Ave. and the westside historic district too.  Couple of questions: (1) We drove CO 7 from Allenspark to Estes Park, but I don't remember the Leiffer House.  Is it visible from the road?  (2) We were in central Boulder, but although the downtown historic district is listed simply "along CO 119", I couldn't see much there and could see historic district signs on nearby streets.  Are the HD signs on other streets perhaps a locally-designated district?  At any rate, I'm glad to see that your new pictures aren't the same places as what I got today :-)  Nyttend (talk) 04:07, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
 * The Leiffer house is most definitely visible from the road. My picture was taken from just about on the road. The historic district I think is Pearl Street and the surrounding residential areas. The stuff along Canyon Blvd (CO 119) is mostly new stuff. One issue I have with the coordinates that are listed here is that they are rounded to the second, so they are sometimes off by a few streets, almost always about 300 feet. The coordinates for my pictures is generally much more accurate than the listings on the pages. Hustvedt (talk) 17:48, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the help; it's appreciated. I got all the Longmont ones tonight, although some are blurry (it was approaching dusk); they'll be fine as little thumbnails, but past 250px they might be rather bad.  It's time for bed right now, so I'm just going to upload my Hygiene church picture for now.  Nyttend (talk) 05:22, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

[unindent] I really like the new Chautauqua Auditorium picture! One question: if you're ever up in Gold Hill, could you get a picture down the main street? I went there expecting a nice little town, not an Appalachia-like community, but I forgot to get one showing anything more than a couple of buildings. I'm not asking that you take a picture for the purpose of saying "this place is a dump"; just thinking that a picture of something more than just the general store and a few little buildings would be best for the infobox. Nyttend (talk) 03:46, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Gold hill would be fairly easy to do. I tried to get a better picture a few weeks ago, but there were trees blocking the view from the road above the town to the east. I can't get the whole town, but I could get most of main street in one shot. Hustvedt (talk) 20:05, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I got a better picture of Gold Hill. It was kind of confusing, since the NRHP entry is just the "Gold Hill Historic Area", and then several of the buildings have the NRHP plaque on them, but aren't separately listed.Hustvedt (talk) 04:05, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I really like the new picture; thanks! It looks a lot better than when I was there; maybe that day was just a bad day to get a picture.  As far as getting the location, did you get a chance to see the boundary list before you were there?  The intersection in the foreground of the picture is the eastern edge of the district, so it's a good idea of both district and community.  Nyttend (talk) 12:02, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Also, I've modified the description of the new image to include its NRHP status. Nyttend (talk) 12:03, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

{{unindent}] The Boulder school pic has been moved/renamed on commons, to use "school" rather than "shool" in its name, in response to move request by me, in response to 2 persons calling for it to be corrected, at my Talk page. -- do ncr  am  21:18, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

NRHP in Colorado
Thanks for fixing the typo :-) I've just finished upgrading the Maine state listings, so "Maine" more naturally flows from my keyboard at the moment than "Main" does.  Nyttend (talk) 06:26, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

You're doing a great job adding pics, like for Arvada Flour Mill. FYI, for that article, and some others, you may have noticed the NRHP infobox was a bit skimpy. It was set up manually by an editor unaware of the Elkman NRHP infobox generator, or before the generator was available. You can create a new infobox easily by visiting http://www2.elkman.net/nrhp/infobox.php, and just putting in, say, "Arvada" and "CO". It generates output that is ready for cut-and-paste into an NRHP wikipedia article. cheers, doncram (talk) 05:03, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, I see. The infobox should have the 2 maps, location, and that description stuff. Would Lookout Mountain Park need the same treatment? Hustvedt (talk) 05:09, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * If it did at one time, it doesn't now. Looks fine now.  Nyttend (talk) 03:34, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I fixed the pages up as I edited them. Hustvedt (talk) 03:43, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Conflicted licensing on image File:American Girl Molly McIntire.jpg
The above noted image or media file appears to have conflicted licensing. As an image cannot be both 'free' and 'unfree', a check of the exact status of this media/image concerned is advised.Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:26, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I took the picture, so I can license the photo itself any way I want, but the doll is most definitely licensed. I will try to clean up the licenses. Hustvedt (talk) 08:01, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * File:Crazy horse memorial comparison.jpg has the exact same issue. Hustvedt (talk) 08:04, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Romanization for words of English origin
On the MOS:JP talk page, a discussion has been started about including or not including romanizations for words of English origin, such as Fainaru Fantajī in Final Fantasy (ファイナルファンタジー) (for the sake of simplicity, I called this case "words of English origin", more information on semantics here).

Over the course of a month, it has become apparent that both the parties proposing to include or not include those romanizations cannot be convinced by the arguments or guidelines brought up by the other side. Therefore, a compromise is trying to be found that will satisfy both parties. One suggestion on a compromise has been given already, but it has not found unanimous agreement, so additional compromises are encouraged to be suggested.

One universally accepted point was to bring more users from the affected projects in to help achieve consensus, and you were one of those selected in the process.

What this invitation is: What this invitation is not:
 * You should give feedback on the first suggested compromise and are highly encouraged to provide other solutions.
 * This is not a vote on including or excluding such romanizations.
 * This is not a vote on compromises either.

It would be highly appreciated if you came over to the MOS:JP talk page and helped find a solution. Thank you in advance. Prime Blue (talk) 11:37, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Minox Camera
Hey, I just wanna know more about the Minox Camera, because I own one, actually my grandfather left it to me. It is a Minox Camera Model B. You wrote an article about it, so I was just wondering if you knew more about the camera. I've been reserching and finding really great stuff. But I was thinking that you coul knew more than the web- sites, since you wrote the article. Please contact me at: minoxcamera@hotmail.com. Looking forward to your reply. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.230.249.225 (talk) 2010-09-11

WikiProject Fire Service
Hello and good afternoon (at least it is afternoon where I am). I was looking at the Wikipedian firefighters category and noticed that you are one of the members of the Wikipedia community that lists yourself as being a firefighter. First and foremost let me say thank you for your service. While I myself am not a firefighter, I do work as a photographer with multiple local fire departments. I am honored to have firefighters as some of my closest friends.

I have been taking an active role in the Fire Service WikiProject and am trying to recruit more members to this cause. If this is something you have any interest in, please let me know? You can leave me a message on my talk page. Obviously there is zero obligation. An interest can be anything from helping out with a couple of pages in your local area to helping to overhaul major templates, and anything in between.

Once again, thank you for your service. Hope to hear from you soon. Stay safe! --Zackmann08 (talk) 17:52, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
