Re: St. Louis Neighborhoods Infobox Template
Your template, while very nice, seems to duplicate many parts of the Settlement template that is currently present on the for the St. Louis neighborhood articles. I know Wikipedia sometimes frowns on this duplicity of templates. You may want to refer to the talk page on the settlement template and ask the opinion of users there before you go about placing your template on all the neighborhood articles. I'd help you more, but as I haven't been very involved in the community for a while, I'm unable to say much with any authority. Either way, I love the effort you've made to improve St. Louis articles. --Millbrooky (talk) 16:01, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Copyright violations
Onegentlemanofverona, you've copied some sections from external websites to Wikipedia in a couple of recent edits. I will remove the material that is a copyright violation, but please be careful in the future to not add copyrighted material to Wikipedia. You can, however, use that website as a source and write the same content in your own words.--chaser (talk) 21:05, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Maps
you replaced all my neighborhood maps with better ones. I wonder what you think of the maps I put up for the city wards at Board of Aldermen of the City of St. Louis. I'm going to do some similar maps for the neighborhoods. I hope to give each page two maps. I'm interested in hearing your opinion on the matter. Cheers, DaronDierkes (talk) 00:35, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:49, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
