Oddball is right![edit]

Thanks. Nice to hear from you! Swinterich (talk) 01:45, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your thoughts about Blue Hole (Castalia). The article has been messed with and I haven't got around to cleaning it up. Cheers! Swinterich (talk) 05:16, 5 December 2008 (UTC) Forgot to mention that I haven't ever been there. Been by there and saw the wooden sign once or twice on the scenic route to Cedar Point, once in grade school, and probably once again just after college with my gf at the time.

Years ago, when the Theatrical on Short Vincent was still open (cries out for another article--when my mother-in-law was a little girl, she saw Babe Ruth go in there with a blonde and threw pennies to the kids--she grew up nearby on Rockwell), there was a not secret, but not well-known basement tunnel leading from the Theatrical to Hollenden House Hotel then located at Superior and East 9th, for reasons you can probably guess. Of course this fascinates me, and I heard that this is true from an independent source, but this is not verifiable. My wife's uncle worked as a bartender at the Theatrical, too but they weren't close and I never met him. So my answer is "yes," I will be glad to help you with Hollenden House, especially editing.

Re: the world series of rock

Hi!

I just confirmed that there was a 1980 concert. I was surprised to learn this, too, as numerous edits of mine said that the last show was in 1979. There is not much published information to be found. The Gorman book refers to Def Leppard playing their first U.S. date here without saying what year. (p. 78). Someone sold a concert tee reflecting the 1980 concert featuring Eddie Money, Bob Seger, Def Leppard, and J. Geils Band on e-bay. I saved the image. Before confirming the 1980 concert, and before I saw the date was right, I found a book showing that the last concert was in 1980. (Deanna R. Adams p. 244) I assumed it was a mistake. It isn't. The Adams book was partially imaged by Google and is legible online. There are few published specifics about these concerts unless you go to the CPL and dig up old newspaper articles. Even then, I presume you have to know the dates of the shows. Thanks for your interest.

Just saying hi[edit]

World Series of Rock[edit]

I was the user who uploaded the image of my T-shirt from the 1980 World Series of Rock. Since I was there, I know that there was indeed a concert in 1980. I even have audio recorded at that show - about 80 minutes of Eddie Money, Bob Seger, and J. Geils. It's not great sound, but listenable.

Why was the image link removed? Isn't it pertinent to the subject?

Monsterclean[edit]

You didn't quite get it right, but never mind - Wikipedia's deletion process is rather complicated, and I'm not surprised a new user made a mistake.

I see no-one's given you your welcome notice yet (must be lazy), so here it is:

Welcome!

Twinkle and sandbox[edit]

I wasn't able to look at the edit in question, but this seems a little silly since the warning suggests testing in the sandbox instead of testing in the sandbox.--otherl left^{No, really, other way . . .} 15:22, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I see. Based entirely upon the message you left it appeared that the edit was in the sandbox. The user in question clearly had some abusive edits, but also got a fair amount of flack for purely sandbox edits during that time. Some of the templates provide a direct link to the edit in question, which is helpful. The reason I didn't look for the actual edit is because the Sandbox has an extensive history; any tips on quickly finding any edit in other ways would certainly be appreciated!--otherl left^{No, really, other way . . .} 17:32, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:John_Gorman_WMMS.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:John_Gorman_WMMS.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 01:18, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

John Henry Morgan[edit]

Just letting you know I removed the deletion tag you placed on John Henry Morgan because there was content in the page history which did not meet CSD A3 . Please make sure you check the page history before tagging (esp. if you're not patrolling from new pages). Best, - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 16:42, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
