"Single use" FPs
I've replied in two places, but I feel it is worth dropping a note here. Opposing an image because it is not in enough articles is literally contrary to our FP criteria as written, and wholly opposed to the whole philosophy of FPC. Concerning this, a nomination is certainly not "lazy" just because the image has not been spammed- and, with your suggestion that the image should be slipped in to Earth, "spam" is very much the right word.

Harris Theater FAC
How do you want to work so we don't have edit conflicts on Harris Theater? Thanks, Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 01:05, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks - I will work on it until then, Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 02:49, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I have been having internet access issues - sorry. WIll work on it now. Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 14:28, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Am taking a break of an hour or so - will post here when I am able to work on it more. Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 16:18, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I think we have addressed all of Karanacs' points now - there are two or three palces where I wondered if you had seen more in the books on the park (material not online) - mostly on the planning process. I also left a message for Fasach Nua asking if s/he could be more specific on the copyright problem with the compass rose image. Hopefully we are nearly done with this. Congrats on the Jesse Jackson FP - I saw him speak once many years ago and he looked pretty much like that then. Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 03:27, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

(out) I made it clear in the edit summaries that I thought we had addressed all of her comments (assuming she watches the FAC), but have not left a message on her talk page. I can do that if you think it useful? Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 03:34, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I left a heads up message on her talk page - she says there that she does not do much on weekends, so it may take some time. Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 03:48, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Karanacs has switched from Oppose to Neutral and struck all but two points. I think I have fixed the one and can work on the last one too, but do not know the actual Monkey Ward height restrictions (i.e. how tall are they?). If you know or can find out, could you please? Also I added a link to a Tribune article abstract (No Room to Dance), next time you are able to do your NewsBank magic, would you be able to link to the full article? Thanks, FAC is looking good, but I would like to resolve the last two Karanacs points if possible. Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 21:18, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for finding the Tribune link. Hope the library knows the actual height. Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 03:07, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

Congrats on the DYK. Sorry that my PR reviews can't normally be line-by-line with follow-up correction checks.

Saxbe fix question
As the nominator for the Saxbe fix FA, could you help answer my question at the "Details of the Saxbe fix" section of WP:RD/H? I'm confused by a sentence in the "Legality" section, and the one editor who's tried to help me so far hasn't been able to resolve the confusion. Thanks! Nyttend (talk) 02:24, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reply! If you look at the timestamps, you'll see that Alþykkr found the answer after I first left a note here.  I've reworded the sentence; could you give an opinion on it?  Nyttend (talk) 02:46, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks again! I'm glad to be able to improve an FA; it's not something I can do very often at all :-)  Nyttend (talk) 02:51, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Makes sense; I'm thankful for collaborative editing. Nyttend (talk) 02:57, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
 * By the way, I'd like a little advice if possible. Do you edit politician articles much at all?  I looked up the Saxbe fix article in the first place because I visited Mechanicsburg, Ohio (hometown of Senator Saxbe) yesterday, and I photographed a building that had in its window a sign saying that it was his law office.  Is it generally seen as appropriate to include pictures of buildings associated with notable living people in their articles, especially if the buildings are advertised as being their own?  Nyttend (talk) 14:41, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks. I've added buildings photos to bio articles before, but it's always been nineteenth-century individuals such as William Lawrence.  And yes, it's National Register-listed; I took the photo because the building is NR-listed and only afterward did I notice that it was Saxbe's office.  I got a poorer-quality photo of the same building more than a year ago (File:Magruder Building.jpg), but at that point I didn't know that it was Saxbe.  The newer photo should be online in the next few days; I've gotten enough photos of National Register-listed places recently that it will take quite a while to get them all online.  Nyttend (talk) 16:11, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the old photo has been on the Champaign County list since soon after I took it last year; I have sources for the structure, so I'm planning to write about it soon. Thanks for the pointers.  Nyttend (talk) 16:21, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
 * The problem is that there aren't any buildings that stand out above others; there are some impressive churches, and there are several other significant buildings, but none of them is better than the rest. The village has 20 NR-listed buildings — the rest of the county has just 11 — due to a multiple property submission from 1985.  Nyttend (talk) 16:27, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

EV for FPC / VPC
Given the reaction to your comment at (and numerous other places), I thought I'd drop by and give you my two cents. In terms of featured picture candidates, I believe you are thinking about EV incorrectly. EV is evaluated on a per-article basis. For example, this file: File:Alamo pano.jpg has high EV at Alamo Mission in San Antonio. It also has the potential to be used in articles such as San Antonio, Battle of the Alamo, and Spanish missions in Texas. Without a doubt though, its use at that first article is where it has the highest EV. If it were placed in those other articles, it would not be accruing additional EV. This system of 'accruing' EV over multiple articles is how it seems to me that you are thinking about it. The rest of the community however, judges EV in whatever article it is highest. Additional usage is simply a bonus for the encyclopedia, but generally has no affect on the featured picture nomination.

Sorry to drop such a mass of text here, but I simply want you to understand why your comments are generating frustration at FPC. Feel free to respond here, I will watchlist your page.  Jujutacular  T · C 04:06, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Moving your comment here, as I very much prefer to keep convos in one place, hope you don't mind.  Jujutacular  T · C 04:48, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, I understand you FPC folks think of the "POTD" value in a sense.  That is a single day where it highest EV use is most important.  However, if images at FPC are WPs finest work, then if it does no harm why not improve additional articles while the image is on our minds.  I am not understanding what part of your argument is against such improvements.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 04:25, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I never said I was against such improvements. Notice: I said additional usage is a bonus for the encyclopedia. What I'm saying is that if you want to discuss File:Mycena interrupta.jpg to be in use at Gondwana, do so at that article's talk page. Or simply insert it yourself and develop the text to support it. Mainly it is the way you phrase your comments. You began your comment: "I would like to see this image used elsewhere". That seems to suggest to people that you don't believe the picture has enough EV where it's at to become a FP. Compare that with this nomination: Featured picture candidates/Seaweed farming. I thought of a place where it could also demonstrate high EV, and wrote the article. Even if I didn't feel like writing the article, I could support and note that the picture would also add value to another article. We just ask that you judge EV in specific contexts, not across the whole encyclopedia. We are all for improving WP.  Jujutacular  T · C 04:48, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I assume a nominator knows more about the subject than I and could properly tweak a WP:CAPTION better than I. Thus, I suggest where he is looking (the FPC).  I would not really know how to caption proper usage of taxonomic images precisely and do not attempt to do so myself, which is why I say I suggest it to the nominator.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 04:53, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Nominators' talk page is probably the place to draw attention to additional possible uses. The FPC nomination page is to evaluate highest EV and technicals of the picture. Again, I'm just trying help.


 * Now, to ease the tension and dish out some WIKILOVE (everyone could use some wikilove, right?) I'd like to draw your attention to today's Commons POTD. I set it up just for you ;)


 * But seriously, know that I'm just trying to help FPC go more smoothly. I really do appreciate your contributions to the project. During this whole deal I've been reading up on your featured articles btw, nice stuff. Hope to see you around more.  Jujutacular  T · C 05:05, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Grant Park Music Festival

Gondwana Image.
I've started a Talk page discussion for an image for that article to try to resolve the conflict we're having. Talk:Gondwana I feel that this basically unknown species of fungi is NOT a good example to demonstrate the pattern, a map as the image I suggested of an entire Genus demonstrating this pattern is far more educational for the article. But that article as it is is over illustrated. — <i style="color:#6600FF;">raeky</i> ( talk 01:47, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

And here is the shot from Friday morning. I haven't made any attempts at reducing the haze. I'm actually content with the look.

Nomination of File:Victory Monument Chicago.jpg at FPC
Hi Tony! I saw the image that I took at User:TonyTheTiger/upcoming FPC noms. I would request you to wait probably another week before you send it for FPC. I am planning to shoot this monument again. The current image was taken around 2pm and as you can see this has produced a shadow on the right side of the structure. I am planning to take this image again 11am -1pm so that I do not get the shadow effect. See this image. I am trying to get something of this sort! The weather in Chicago as you are well aware is quite gloomy. So I am waiting for another bright and sunny day to take this picture again. Thanks! --JovianEye (talk) 23:39, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I will do that! Besides Ida B. Wells-Barnett House, the following are also on my list:McCormick Place, Stephen A. Douglas Tomb, Illinois College of Optometry, Dunbar High School (Chicago) and more buildings of Illinois Institute of Technology. --JovianEye (talk) 01:13, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Guess today's weather has given a good result. It's a little confusing to decide which of the 2 is better. I'd prefer the new one, but I guess the older version shud be placed at FPC as an alternative option. The perspective in both images is quite different! --JovianEye (talk) 20:35, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

Walter Camp or Casper Whitney
In the 1993 College Baseball All-America Team article, you state that "Walter Camp selected the first All-America team in the early days of American football in 1889." While there are sources that make this claim, the 1889 College Football All-America Team was selected by Casper Whitney. Some sources indicate that Walter Camp assisted Whitney with the selection of the 1889 All-American team, while others indicate that Camp did not become involved in the selection process until some time in the 1890s. If you go by the NCAA guide here, it reflects Whitney as the sole selector of All-America teams from 1889 to 1897; it doesn't recognize Camp as a selector until 1898. Camp is a much more famous personality than Whitney, and unfortunately that appears to have led to him getting credit for Whitney's innovation. Cbl62 (talk) 15:49, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Buffalo Braves seasons at GAN
I'm not going to formally review them given the perception of bias (as noted by your "pet peeve" banner), but I really think you should withdraw these nominations, as all three look like quick fail candidates to me. Notably, they are incomplete, riddled with stub sections and over-rely on a single source of questionable reliability. I was curious though, and found that there are some interesting storylines that you have not integrated into these articles. Of note from 75-76: the fight between the owner and the city over an arena lease, a brawl against Milwaukee, McAdoo's suspension by the team. Google news archive actually has a fair number of game review articles with which to make these articles far more complete. Hope some of this helps, cheers! Resolute 18:46, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Google has made it a bit more complicated these days, but I searched "Buffalo Braves" on a news search, then click on "advanced search" and make sure it is showing results from any time frame, then hit search again. That will get you the timeline on the left hand bar: .  Just a matter of picking the news archive links out of the proquest/NYT paid archive links from whatever month/year you want.

I assume that you are referring to the comment I left with my support at the FLC.

Hi, I wanted to thank you for your feedback on St. Michael's Cathedral, Qingdao, which was (finally) promoted to FA today. This means I'm eligible for my first Four Award (which I have a nomination pending for). I appreciate your work on the article. ɳorɑfʈ Talk! 13:52, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

FTC
Heyo! Not trolling for votes (vote however you see fit), but I just voted on your Millenium Park nom which had stalled along with my and KV5's Triple Crown nom. Mind checking it out to see if one voter can get others to pay attention? FTC seems much slower than it used to be. Staxringold talkcontribs 05:07, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

Buffalo Bills
Your hook for your Buffalo Bills article is somewhat confusing. I have mentioned this on the DYK nomination page. Dincher (talk) 23:37, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

NewsBank
Hello. I see you use a lot of sources from NewsBank without paying for them. How do you do it? ~ <font color="#F900">EDDY  (<font color="Green">talk /<font color="Green">contribs /<font color="Green">editor review ) ~ 00:31, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

WikiCup 2010 June newsletter
We're half way through 2010, and the end of the WikiCup is in sight! Round 3 is over, and we're down to our final 16. Our pool winners were (A),  (B, and the round's overall leader),  (C)  and  (D, joint), but, with the scores reset, everything is to play for in our last pooled round. The pools will be up before midnight tonight, and have been selected randomly by J Milburn. This will be the toughest round yet, and so, as ever, anything you worry may not receive the necessary attention before the end of the round (such as outstanding GA or FA nominations) is welcome at WikiCup/Reviews, and please remember to continue offering reviews yourself where possible. As always, the judges are available to contact via email, IRC or their talk pages, and general discussion about the Cup is welcome on the WikiCup talk page.

Though unaffiliated with the WikiCup, July sees the third Great Wikipedia Dramaout- a project with not dissimilar goals to the WikiCup. Everyone is welcome to take part and do their bit to contribute to the encyclopedia itself.

If you're interested in the scores for the last round of the Cup, please take a look at WikiCup/History/2010/Round 3 and WikiCup/History/2010/Full/Round 3. Our thanks go to for compiling these. As was predicted, Group C ended up the "Group of Death", with 670 points required for second place, and, therefore, automatic promotion. This round will probably be even tougher- again, the top two from each of the two groups will make it through, while the twelve remaining participants will compete for four wildcard places- good luck everyone!
