Proposed deletion of Daniel Callahan, Ph.D


The article Daniel Callahan, Ph.D has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Coolug (talk) 21:18, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

Daniel Callahan
You're welcome. Just some things to note - on talk pages, new posts always go at the bottom. The easiest way to comment on one is to click the "new section" button at the top. Also, I deleted the from your talk page. When a talk page gets way too long, people sometimes take a bunch of old posts off and put them into an archive. That's what that tag is for. Finally, if you put at the end, the "please don't edit above this line" will not appear on the screen. This is called commenting, it allows you to put things in the wiki markup without it appearing on the screen. If you want do this, you would type in. Thanks, D O N D E groovily   Talk to me  04:17, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Re:Daniel Callahan, Ph.D

 * Hello there! The orphan tag was placed by me via AWB. I have looked again at the article and believe the orphan tag was appropriate for the following reason: an orphan is defined as "a page with few or no links from other pages (in Wikipedia)." These pages can still be found by searching Wikipedia, but it is preferable that they can also be reachable by links from related pages; it is therefore helpful to add links from other suitable pages with similar and/or related information. See WP:ORPH

Another area of concern I have only just identified is that this page appears to duplicate an existing page Daniel Callahan without expanding on it very much. I am inclined to say it just falls short of CSD A10. I would be interested to know why you created this page in light of the existence of the page Daniel Callahan?


 * No problem :-) If you would like the article to be deleted you can add the CSD G7 template (see WP:CSD) to the article and save the page, be sure to mention in the edit summary that you are the author and request deletion. That will make if easier for the Admin deleting to take action. If you're still unsure, reply to this message and I will tag it for deletion for you. There did appear to be some information on your page not included at Daniel Callahan. Please feel free to edit that page and expand upon the article. Welcome to Wikipedia! Pol430 (talk) 18:16, 22 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Hmmm, no... I cant see any changes to either page. For more info on merging articles please see WP:MM I would emphasize caution with merging two pages of almost identical content. The merger process basically involves copy and pasting the source page markup into the target page edit box. You could copy the entire content of Daniel Callahan, Ph.D to User:MetaCow/Sandbox which is a sub-page of your user page (that does not exist yet, but you can create it by following the link) that you can save you work in whilst you decide what content to copy across to Daniel Callahan. If you decide to that then please remember to place a speedy deletion tag on Daniel Callahan, Ph.D, or, if you need help I will do it for you. Pol430 (talk) 18:54, 22 November 2010 (UTC)


 * As requested on my talk page: - The page Daniel Callahan, Ph.D is now blank and tagged for speedy deletion. I have moved all the content on that page to User:MetaCow/Sandbox for you to edit as you wish. Kind Regards Pol430 (talk) 19:26, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Badger Creek State Park


A tag has been placed on Badger Creek State Park requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Please note that it's not acceptable to copy and paste material from other sites to Wikipedia, even if you change a few of the words. We can't accept such contributions for copyright reasons.

Clackamas Wilderness tone
The tone issue is pretty much the whole article. For instance: "The Clackamas Wilderness offers clean drinking water for visitors. It also has the biggest trees in northwest Oregon. Memaloose Lake is a very popular hiking trail in the Clackamas Wilderness. It continues on through a forest leading 1.4 miles until arriving at the lake, and then continues a mile up to a viewpoint on to up South Fork Mountain." and then the sections "regulations" and "available activities" all make this come across as a guide, or travel brochure. This is counter to what Wikipedua is not, specifically WP:NOTGUIDE.

Not that these articles are perfect, but Bull of the Woods Wilderness, Steens Mountain Wilderness, Bridge Creek Wilderness, and Cummins Creek Wilderness are other Oregon wilderness areas that have a better treatment of the topic. Now they include recreation info, but it is limited and not dominate. Or, in other words, make the article about the place, not what you can do there. Hopefully this helps.

WPORE COTW 2.0 - the picture edition
Greetings one and all. For some of you, this will be your first time receiving one of these messages, as it has been a year since the WikiProject Oregon Collaboration of the Week (COTW) was a regular thing. My hope is it gets back to being a regular thing.

Usually I would go over the past COTW, but we are basically starting out anew. So, without further adieu, this edition is our semi-annual picture drive. We usually try to do it when there is decent weather in the state, and today seems to fit the bill. Now although you are encouraged to go out and take pictures, you can also just search the internet for images that have the proper licensing and upload those. Flickr is one site that has a fair amount of content with the proper licensing (most images on Flickr are not compatible). See WP:COPYRIGHT in general. For some “free” sources, check out the our dormant subproject that has some links to sources.

Lastly, if you need to know what images we need, here are the requests. Please remove the request from the talk page if you add an image.

Finally (this is not image related), as the years have passed, we have lost many good editors, and others, like myself, are no longer in school or are working full-time or both, and thus are less active in the project. The project lives on, but it has created a bit of a power vacuum without a de facto cabal still around all the time. With that in mind, I encourage newer project members to step-up and fill some leadership type roles. Granted, we have no formal ruling junta or anything and no real defined roles, but there are many maintenance type tasks that some of us just took on to keep the project going. For instance, I ran the COTW, was pretty much the only one doing assessments, updating the portal, and even handing out the awards. I am sure others in the project can name what things they have done. The point being, that while I enjoyed those and still do some of those, I simply no longer have the free time to do all of it at a level that the project deserves. That said, I hope to start a discussion at WT:ORE where we can see if some newer editors would like to step-up and take on some of these tasks, which will hopefully make for a more inclusive project, and maybe get us back to the heyday of say 2008 when things were really rocking for WikiProject Oregon.

As always, please click here to opt out of these messages, or click here to make a suggestion for a future COTW. Aboutmovies (talk) 22:23, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Show up at any point during the four hours to get started!

Also: Free burritos!! We will be providing vegan, vegetarian, and meat burritos from food cart Loncheria Las Mayos. Alder Commons has a large, fenced playground. Children are welcome!
