Narrows Bridge photos
Neat photos; they're on the Gig Harbor side, right? You should probably mark them as public domain or license them as, or else some overzealous editor will delete them as subject to copyright. Travisl (talk) 21:41, 27 May 2008 (UTC) 07:20, 1 June 2008 (UTC) Thanks for the copyright info. I took care of that tonight. Yes they are on the Gig Harbor side inbetween the two bridges.

 * You don't need to tell us that - is it a problem for some reason? JohnCD (talk) 08:36, 12 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see, that IP has been blocked as an open proxy. I will place a request at WP:OP to have it checked out. JohnCD (talk) 08:40, 12 March 2013 (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.

Your recent (October 2020) contributions to White Front and Valu-Mart articles
I have noticed that your recent contributions to the White Front and Valu-Mart articles needs some improvements that would make it easier for other editors to check and confirm if what you have actually written is actually true (or if other editors had added new material that contradicts with the existing citations). In particular, I have looked at and

Are your citations from hard copies or online digital copies?

If you are one of the few people who are actually going through a paper archive in a public library, you need to give enough information so that a reader can located the correct article in the millions of pages stored in the back room of the library. At some libraries, patrons are not permitted physical access to some historical newspapers and will have to give the librarian the correct title of the newspaper, article title, author, publication date, issue, page number, column number, and possible location (by inches) within the page.

If you access a digital copy of the article, please give the full url of the article that would include the digital article identification number. If you are accessing articles via ProQuest or Newsbank, you would be given a really long url in your browser and a different url if you use the "copy link" feature. If given a choice, please use "copy link" url. We can show you later on how to get a shorter version of the url that others can use to access the same article.

As an an example, the following is not very help of another editor want to check the article to see if it really supports your claim since that article is not accessible to anyone else (because the url does not point to actual article; not enough information is included for a librarian to perform a hard-copy search):

which renders as:



In contrast, the following example (which accessible to anyone at a library that has a subscription) is more useful:

which render as:

If you have any questions, please ask and I will try to guide you how to properly cite articles and make it accessible to other editors. -- 68.50.32.85 (talk) 04:25, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
