Speedy deletion nomination of Template:WikiProject Texas Tech University


A tag has been placed on Template:WikiProject Texas Tech University requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion because it is an unused duplicate of another template, or a hard-coded instance of another template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is not actually the same as the other template noted, please consider putting a note on the template's page explaining how this one is different so as to avoid any future mistakes.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. ElKevbo (talk) 17:09, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Tarfu
Hi. I changed the redirect target of Seaman Tarfu to Private Snafu. As it is the most relevant article from the previous disamb Tarfu page. Regards, — usernamekiran (talk)  18:34, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree with that decision. I was 50-50 on where to point the redirect so Private Snafu works for me. Thank you for the heads-up. →Wordbuilder (talk) 19:11, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
 * No problem :) — usernamekiran (talk)  19:30, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

File:USS Leopard (IX-122).jpg
Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Paul Brinegar
Thanks for your inquiry. As to your question, the 1920 federal census was used to document and confirm Paul Brinegar’s parents' names and his father's livelihood. The specific location regarding Brinegar's birth is cited in many other records, including various 1995 obituaries, such as the accompanying one from the Los Angeles Times. Thanks again for your question. It led to my rereading and changing the syntax in the related sentence. As previously written, one could have interpreted that Brinegar had three parents (Paul, Louise, and that "farmer")! I also transposed the order for the given references, placing the LAT obituary (which cites Brinegar's birthplace) before the 1920 census reference. Strudjum (talk) 21:17, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

Follow-up on Brinegar
Glad you’re doing that. My own research on Brinegar has been pretty limited, although I have always liked him, even outside his most widely recognized role as "Wishbone". Good luck. Let me know if I can be of help in any way. Strudjum (talk) 21:29, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
