Iowa communities
In addition to the welcome message I wanted to let you know I have been watching with interest as you add information to various Iowa community articles. To inform you, I patrol all Iowa communities (counties, cities, unincorporated communities, townships, etc.) for editing changes and then check for vandalism and/or validity. I wanted to thank you and to alert you to a division of WikiProject Iowa called Communities that has a help section at WP:IOWA/C and encourage you to join.

I noticed you adding information to articles and encourage you to cite a reference for that information. You may want to read the Wikipedia USCITY guideline for layout and content on city articles.

I see you have added the USCensusPop template (population history table) to various articles recently. It looks like you copied and pasted the table and then updated the data for the individual city. This is great and OK, I just wanted to suggest that when you do a copy and paste (for this or any other reference) that you would check to make sure that the information has not changed and then update the accessdate parameter of the cite web template to the day you are editing the article.

I have been working on updating all the various population and density changes for the 2010 census in Iowa communities. I recently added to your entry for Hartley, Iowa and you can see the changes at HARTLEY CHANGES. If you would backtrack and update the entries for the cities you added population tables to, I would appreciate it. If you wanted to help with other cities that would be great! Contact me anytime.

I used a US Census source that I that lists just the 2010 population and the occupancy data in a table at US CENSUS BUREAU. The site defaults to the state of Alabama and you will need to select the state of Iowa (or your choice). After it loads it lists the first 300 entries starting with A, you may have to scroll down to the end and select the next set of entries.

Another editor has put together a useful 2010 census guide for the state of Kansas that can be seen at Recommended Changes To Articles For 2010 Census.

I do not mean to infer that you need to add your information exactly as I have, just showing you my way. By all means please continue adding information as you see fit as long as it follows Wikipedia guidelines. Keep up the good editing, and again contact me anytime.-- Rife Ideas  Talk  15:24, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Iowa Hawkeyes football, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kicker (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.

Nude Nuns with Big Guns - Plot
Hi, you recently edited the Plot section of page Nude Nuns with Big Guns.

In my opinion the plot description is now slightly too much of a quote from the official homepage.

Would you mind re-editing the plot text, perhaps into a mix of "old" and "new"?

Thanks for considering. Micraboy (talk) 12:07, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag.

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to List of Iowa Hawkeyes head football coaches, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. -- WikHead (talk) 08:02, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

A page you started has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating List of Rutgers Scarlet Knights football seasons, RhinoSpear79!

Wikipedia editor Bruno Russell just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

"Fine"

Moved articles
I see that you have moved Heartland Trophy and Cy-Hawk Trophy to Iowa-Wisconsin football rivalry and Iowa-Iowa State football rivalry. Unfortunately, I have to tell you that those are the wrong titles. They should both have an en dash like this: Iowa–Wisconsin football rivalry and Iowa–Iowa State football rivalry. If you don't know to put one, here's a page that will help: How to make dashes.

Ways to improve 1974 Iowa Hawkeyes football team
Hi, I'm JLeach87. RhinoSpear79, thanks for creating 1974 Iowa Hawkeyes football team!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. I can't follow the reference that's listed to verify.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Jordan Leach (talk) 04:21, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

NCAA football win-loss records
I see that you're the one who updated NCAA Division I FBS football win-loss records. Since the 2014 NCAA record book is not out yet, what source did you use for your information? Kobra98 (talk) 02:58, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

I used the 2013 NCAA record book along with the teams' 2014 records.

NCAA Division I football win-loss records in the 1910&
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of NCAA Division I football win-loss records in the 1910&, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: NCAA Division I football win-loss records in the 1920's. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 20:30, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

College Football Rankings
I think that you are confusing the "power rankings" with the coaches poll. I see that you have made several edits changing the coaches poll rankings. You used the power rankings which are different. Here is the ESPN source. JOJ Hutton  18:54, 1 November 2015 (UTC)
