[edit] thanks/jim jeffords
I was slowly plodding through completing entries for all of Texas' congressmen, but you saved me the trouble, thank you. Also I noticed that Jim Jeffords, the gentleman from Vermont, is missing from your list of party switchers. Thanks again. Thepedestrian 05:03, Sep 22, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
[edit] Linda Smith
The Linda Smith page that your user page links to is now a disambiguation page. I think that Linda Smith (politician) is the name of the article about the person mentioned in your table. Tim Ivorson 15:13, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)

You may complain on WP:VIP (an hope someone will notice) or directory to some Admin. This is case for block, IMHO. Pavel Vozenilek 05:23, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Tom Metzger
A tag has been placed on Tom Metzger, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why Tom Metzger is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Tom Metzger. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable.Tom 15:16, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
I immediately recognized this name but cannot think of the details. I think he has something to do with the "Radical Right" in CA. User:Billy Hathorn
[edit] Christian Nationalist Crusade
As a writer, back in 2004 on Gerlad (not O. K.) Smith, I though I might invite to to visit the site above for which I've just written a stub. Also, I would like to see a separate article on the Christian Nationalist Party, and I cannot think of anyone better to write it than you.
My interest in Smith is related to his distribution of G. F. Green's, British, abridged edition of The International Jew.
Yours truly, --Ludvikus 02:40, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Akin
Thanks for adding Akin's quote about Davy Crockett and his Blackberry to Akin's page. It's ridiculous. =D 152.23.196.162 08:35, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Theodore G. Bilbo
I was just working on Theodore G. Bilbo and noticing what a nicely written and well balanced articlce it is. Checking the history I see you wrote the initial draft.[1] Though it has expanded and changed since then it's recognizably the same article. It's easy to think of Wikipedia as a 'sand castle' always in danger of collapsing, but articles like that show the project can elicit and maintain useful material. Thanks for being a part of that. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 11:30, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for those compliaments. --RobbieFal 16:29, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Peer Review of Ralph Flanders Invitation
In the past, you have shown an interest in the article on Ralph Flanders (by initiating the page). It has recently been substantially updated. You are invited to leave your peer review at Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Peer review/Ralph Flanders.—HopsonRoad 12:36, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] United States House of Representatives elections in South Carolina, 1938
You are right about the primary figures for the 3rd Cong. Dist. in the 1938 SC US House elections. I acquired the figures from the book The Primary State: A History of the Democratic Party in South Carolina, 1876-1962, but I might have wrote it down wrong. If I wrote it down correctly, then I'll try to look up the results in a 1938 newspaper. And my local newspaper probably won't have those results so I would need access to the SC Dem papers at USC or if someone in Anderson would look up the results in a 1938 newspaper.
