WikiProject roller coasters

Hi there, just to let you know that WP:ROCO has been given an overhaul. As you are listed as a participant, I just thought I'd let you know that there's a new to-do section and much clearer guidelines for roller coaster articles. Hope to see you over there!

I saw that you added this category to some articles. This is fine, but you probably shouldn't add it to articles that don't cite accidents w/ reliable sources (which are missing in Flight Deck, for example). Best, IronGargoyle (talk) 20:57, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

I'm working from Incidents at Cedar Fair parks as the basis for that and it's listed and cited there (although the cite goes to a now non-existent news story now that I follow that cite. I definitely agree that come of these articles need to have the information and sources from Incidents at Cedar Fair parks transferred and cited there. Eastshire (talk) 21:05, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
Sounds good. :) IronGargoyle (talk) 21:06, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

I have nominated Category:Roller coasters with serious accidents (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) for merging into Category:Amusement park accidents (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at the discussion page. Thank you. — ξxplicit 04:17, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations!

I hope someday to be the same kind of "shill". :-) — BQZip01 — talk 22:40, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

I see you commented on my RfC

Am I permitted to discuss this with you? Glkanter (talk) 19:09, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

As far as I know, you can. I don't know that I have much to add to my Outsider's View though. Eastshire (talk) 19:13, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
On the MHP, I'm an all or nothing guy. First, thank you for your contribution to the RfC. It was nice of you to take the time.
I'd like to convince you that calling us both 'uncivil' is what the news media sometimes does, it's called a 'false equivalency'. Do you mind if I bend your ear a little, and ask you to read a couple of brief sections? Glkanter (talk) 19:31, 23 December 2009 (UTC)


I think we need to be on the discussion page.

"Reminder to use the talk page for discussion

I agree that the RfCU discussion page is the appropriate venue. Eastshire (talk) 19:55, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Non Free Images in your User Space

Hey there Eastshire, thank you for your contributions! I am a bot alerting you that Non-free files are not allowed in the user or talk-space. I removed some images that I found on User:Eastshire/Bethel College (Indiana). In the future, please refrain from adding fair-use images to your user-space drafts or your talk page. See a log of images removed today here, shutoff the bot here and report errors here. Thank you, -- DASHBot (talk) 05:17, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

How to hyphenate ship class names

Eastshire, thanks for your note. Read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(ships) carefully (as I mentioned in my comments when I made the move). The relevant part, under "Ship classes," reads, "Articles about a ship class should be named (Lead ship name) "class" (type); for example, Ohio-class submarine." You can help me to rename these pages according to that standard! The standard is consistent with universal conventions for hyphenation. Thanks! (If you can figure out a way to rename the incorrectly-hyphenated templates, please let me know.) Holy (talk) 16:34, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

Link to Dave Ramsey-related story (referenced by article of same name) is a malware trap.

Thought you'd want to know about this: Talk:Dave Ramsey#URGENT: Apparent malware attack on clicking (current) ref. [13] linking to site freeby50.com ("Suze Orman Smacks Down Dave Ramsey").

Hoping you can come up with a safe alternative. Thanks, IfYouDoIfYouDon't (talk) 07:45, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
