Leslie S. Hodgson
Hi Ntsimp, I started the Leslie S. Hodgson article today, and I know Ogden architecture is an interest of yours, so maybe you can add to it? I'm still looking for more references too. Thanks! Green Glass (talk) 02:20, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:CanadaNickelObverse.jpeg
 Thanks for uploading File:CanadaNickelObverse.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Courcelles 04:22, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

address correction for a Utah NRHP-listed place
Hi Ntsimp, i noticed this diff, and i commented briefly at wp:NRIS info issues UT, and see you replied there already. I wasn't remembering if u used the wp:NRIS info issues system or not; the wp:NRIS info issues UT Utah one was not on my watchlist; i see in fact you do. In general that will help us with future correspondence to the National Register, and I hope there'll be learnings both ways. Thanks. -- do ncr  am  17:06, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I did post some info there early last year, but nothing seems to come of it. If there's a chance it will actually help, maybe I should go through my other corrections and add them there. Ntsimp (talk) 17:14, 27 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, the system has been kind of a black hole, just receiving notes and not anything being done for it. Just having it as a central recording place does provide a service already, however.  It documents our reasons for changing addresses etc., allowing us to deal with editors arriving with "corrections" back the other way, based on NRIS or mirror sites http://www.nationalregisterofhistoricplaces.com.
 * I tried previously to report several batches of Ohio items, working with Nyttend, a while ago, but the National Register contact person assigned may have disappeared, anyhow did not respond to my followups. I would like to try again, to report information for a different state where there was an interested editor who would participate in correspondence and followup, e.g. if they prove we are wrong about one matter, to make the correction in the wikipedia article.  Would you be willing to be that person to participate, if I started again, with Utah?  No corrections for Utah have ever been submitted, unless there were any National Historic Landmark ones (where i did submit corrections and they were implemented).  I will aim higher in the staff hierarchy at the National Register, in a new start using Utah, if you are interested.  If interested, though, to participate fully in the correspondence, a practical requirement would be that we would have to share our emails and probably our real names and location info with them and each other, as I think it works best if we would correspond with them as real people.  If the privacy loss is a problem, I'll just start up for some other state, sometime this summer.  No problem either way. -- do  ncr  am  17:27, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

A Favor...
Hi Ntsimp,

I have seen that you do a lot with Utah articles. I have been watching an article (The Winter Sports School in Park City) and I think I have been looking at it too long. Would you mind looking at it for me? I have added a NPOV tag, but the article's only editor has removed/disputed it. I don't do a lot with Wikipedia anymore, so I am not up on the latest way to resolve these things, but I do know the article needs at least one other person to give it a good read, since it doesn't get a lot of outside editing attention.

Hey, thanks for working with me on this article. It's coming together quite nicely. =-) Dave (talk) 21:58, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

Not sure what my edits "messed up" in terms of units. All I did was set the conversions to WikiPedia defaults, and the only visual change (I think) is that acres are now hectares (which is the default, and the unit used more often for land areas). Donlammers (talk) 12:59, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Apostrophes
Re - actually now that I think about it I'm not sure. It seems there is no set convention: but your edit appears to be correct.Volunteer Marek (talk) 03:40, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

Interview with Wikimedia Foundation
Hi Ntsimp, I hope you're well. My name is Aaron and I'm one of the Storytellers working on the 2011 fundraiser for the Wikimedia Foundation. For this year's campaign, we're interviewing as many of the very active and productive Wikipedians as we can to broaden the range of appeals we run come November. I wonder if you would want to tell me more about your experiences editing and writing here? If so, I'll ask you your personal story and I'll ask you some general questions about Wikipedia. Please let me know if you're interested by emailing amuszalski@undefinedwikimedia.org. Thanks! user:Aaron (WMF)

Scheduling
Thanks for getting back to me Ntsimp! Would it be possible to speak with you over the phone (or Skype), either tomorrow or sometime this week? I'm happy to work around your schedule as necessary. amuszalski@wikimedia.org 70.36.146.205 (talk) 00:38, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the support - comments requested
Thanks for the comment that made me commit to getting WikiProject National Register of Historic Places/Fall 2011 Photo Contest started. I'd love to see any comments about that page, just to make sure that it is easily understandable, and that the contest would be workable. Any more help appreciated.

New NRHP listing in Davis County, UT
Hi Ntsimp ... in case you weren't already aware of it, new Utah NRHP listings were announced today:


 * Davis County: Farmington Main Street Historic District (Approximately Main St. from 200 South to 600 North, along 600 North to Park Lane and 100 North from Main St to 100 West)
 * Morgan County: Morgan Union Pacific Depot (98 N. Commercial St.)

Since you've done such a terrific job of illustrating the Utah lists, I thought you might want to be aware of the additions. Keep up the good work! --sanfranman59 (talk) 22:51, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

NRHP table system change
There is a table formatting system change being discussed at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_National_Register_of_Historic_Places and your input has been requested. Any help appreciated. Smallbones (talk) 04:21, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

Read It
You should actually read WP:PLACE, before saying its only about titles.-- JOJ Hutton  19:54, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Not wikihounding or anything, but I didn't say that. I said WP:PLACE is only about titles, and that is true. I understand your preference, having read your FAQ. My preference is different. You were bold, and I reverted. It's quite clear that you won't change your mind, so I don't know about discussing. I intend to maintain the status quo on Utah articles, which are mostly on my watchlist, but I don't intend to follow you. My position is that I don't want to require anglophone Wikipedia readers to have memorized the 50 states. I certainly appreciate the same courtesy on articles about places outside the US; I don't know much about Canadian provinces, or whatever divisions they have in the UK. Anyway, I know you go through a lot of discussion about this and are adamant, so I guess that's all I have to say. Ntsimp (talk) 20:12, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

Wendell and Allen Jacobson
This is the largest PONZI and fraud ever uncovered in the state of UTAH. These 2 men and the business that was involved lived according to the Federal Government complaint in FOUNTAIN GREEN, Sanpete County UTAH. This qualifies that as NOTABLE in that community.

PLease xplain why you removed it from the Wikipedia or I will revert your edits. 07:04, 18 December 2011 (UTC)--WPPilot 07:04, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

Stromquist House
Since you marked Don M Stromquist House as an nrhp, can you supply any information why it was marked. I cannot find it in the county list and other common sources. Its talk page is marked as needing an nrhp infobox. Can you give its refum and date of listing? Thanks. KudzuVine (talk) 14:07, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Sorry, that was an error of mine. I've corrected it. Ntsimp (talk) 17:36, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
