NY 31

Anyone from or near Syracuse have any pictures of NY 31? --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 19:20, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm back

After a lengthy wikication, I'm back (Wikipedia wasn't helping me find a job). I'm going to do my best to maintain this project weekly. -newkai t-c 15:29, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Shortcut

Hey guys, i thought i'd do you a favour and create a shortcut to your page (even though you already have one), just type in WP:SYNY and you'll get a direct link to the WikiProject, its much easier i have found after creating my WikiProject, WP:WLA or WikiProject Los Angeles, if you dont like it feel free to delete it.

Historic Places in Syracuse Area

Syracuse wikipedians are invited to join in documenting the 108 historic sites in Onondaga County that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. I and some others are working ahead in taking photos and posting new articles...see announcements on the main page of this wikiproject. A complete list of sites to cover, with addresses and some info, is available at NRHP sites in Onondaga County. I can provide links to other sources of info to inform article-writing, too. Please join in!. Feel free to announce your own new photos and articles on the main page of this wikiproject, and ask any questions here. Cheers.... doncram (talk) 17:32, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

About 58 sites, out of the total of 122 or so, now have articles. See List of Registered Historic Places in Onondaga County, New York. doncram (talk) 02:32, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, Crazyale for adding pictures of two of the RHPs! The Amos Block picture is very pretty. Nice job with the article, too, including the NRHP infobox and the NRHP document available at the NYS site. doncram (talk) 07:21, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

147 New Syracuse Photos under CC-SA

Recently a Flickr user by the name of Daquella Manera uploaded 147 photos under a CC-SA licence. If you need photos for articles, check them out here. -newkai t-c 18:37, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Some nice pics. The last pic there is, i believe, a pic of Crouse College, Syracuse University, an article which could use an illustration. I think the flickr photo is not usable in wikipedia, though, without it being released under a GPDL or other license by the photographer. doncram (talk) 21:47, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Best / highest rated articles?

Hey, what are the best and/or highest rated articles included within the Syracuse wikiproject? Or which have the greatest potential for getting Good Article status, I wonder. I don't see any assessment within the project per se, but most articles could also be covered and rated by the New York wikiproject or another wikiproject. doncram (talk) 01:56, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

  • That's a good question. Can someone take the liberty of finding this out?--ZeWrestler Talk 17:14, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
