	Hi, Kranar! I haven't yet figured out how to regexp the banner shells, so I don't know how to add the project into them. Since I helped create the {{tl\|WikiProjectBannerShell}}, it's on my mind and I'm working on it. Sorry for that! -- <span style="background-color: #EECCFF;">]<span style="font-size: smaller;"> (] \| ])</span></span> 05:22, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

	==That's crappy==
	Yeah, that is too bad. You know where that information would belong, unless the building itself gets an article (its notability is borderline imo but I think an effective argument could be made for its inclusion) would be the Freeport article, under a Cityscape section, description of the downtown is perfect for that and if someone has info on Springfield that could fill out that section there as well.

	The offline release version project I am only passingly familiar with but I will look into it, thanks for the link. I am getting to the Rockford discussion now too. ] 11:59, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

	===So is this but . . .===
	Thanks for your support and defense in my recent, unsuccessful RfA. It's much appreciated. ] 15:59, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

	==Hey hey==
	Sounds good about the offline release stuff, I have several articles that will probably be up to GA soon, some FLW stuff some other historic places stuff, maybe some architects, ] is looking pretty decent, needs a bit more expansion though.

	The reason for my message in the first place is to let you know I did some pretty extensive photography Tuesday and Wednesday, though I haven't yet uploaded my photos. I shot ], to include ] - (which needs an article). I got some really good shots of the ]s in the park, including shots of a truck crossing over them. I also shot ] along the Rock River and, as requested ]. : ) I will alert you when the pics are posted and add gallery links to Commons to the articles. ] 18:05, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

	::Hey, if you are shooting Byron, get the Soldiers Monument in the middle of the street, my pictures of that weren't good, it was too dark. ] 11:36, 16 June 2007 (UTC)r

	:::Saw your Byron images, good stuff despite the storm. I find it funny that your picture of the Soldier's Monument looks almost exactly the same as mine. : ) We'll get a good one eventually, I am sure. I'll probably be going to either ] or ] tomorrow, depends on how long and far I feel like driving. And the next time I am in Ogle County maybe the sun will be shining and I can get a good image of the Soldier's Monument thing, keep your eyes peeled for a crazy person in the middle of the road. ] 17:34, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

	== Hamlet (not the play)? ==

	Hi Kranar, how about "]"? In Pennsylvania there are incorporated cities, boroughs, one or two towns, and townships. The state Department of Transportation puts signs up for villages (but they are unincorporated and technically part of townships). Even smaller settlements are not given village signs and I have called them hamlets. I see Illinois has official villages, so would Hamlet work? The other idea I had was "populated place" which is what the ] ] calles ]. See . Hope this helps, I am adding more dots next. ] ''']''' 02:24, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
	*Glad to be of help - sorry the dots are going so slow. I will keep working on them, ] ''']''' 16:40, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
	**Hi Kranar, could you please stub out ]? It is currently a redirect to ]. Thanks, ] ''']''' 01:58, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
	***Wow, you are fast - the dot is fixed and added to the map. Will do more dots tomorrow. Thanks for your kind words on the map's talk page, by the way. Take care, ] ''']''' 03:59, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

	== Re: Merging ==

	Hi there, sorry for the delay, I have been away lately. Merge done (although I only saved one version, one). I put that info in the leading of the article, so check for inconsistencies (in example, the city was founded on 1722 or 1720?). Cheers! -- ] 18:05, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
	:Well, as you may know I don't have English as main language, but if "raiders" is offensive, you can request a reference. If the police was doing a raid (like a ]), then it looks like "raiders" is an appropriate term. -- ] 18:11, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

	== People from Chicago ==

	I am not sure what you are saying your intention is. Do other cities have such subcats? I think American Football players will show up in every team they played for and major college programs as well. In addition they may show up in People from cats. I am not sure how much a Football player from cat would add. Do other cities do this? ] <small>(]/]/]/]) </small> 14:27, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

	:Let me thank you for your tremendous hard work. I see that you are trying to sort ] by specialties. When yo], which is where the bot looks. Also, add them in one place at ]. I did not have a problem with the category as it was, but it is more clear the way you have done it. The category that I have been unable to get straightened out is ]. Most of the people are from the Chicago branch but as the other branches develop a tradition they will have wiki-notable members. Do you think you might have a chance to sort out that category by city so that ] is not in a cat dominated by Chicago actors. ] <small>(]/]/]/]) </small> 22:44, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

	::I am sorry. The problem is that the category is in the bot list. So everyone in the cat gets {{tl\|ChicagoWikiProject}} added to it. It was originally a Chicago comedy troup. Now they have branches in other cities. Mike was in the Toronto troup I believe. What I need are sub cats by city (E.g. ]). One would be Chicago. Thus, actors from other cities would not get the Chi tag. ] <small>(]/]/]/]) </small> 23:12, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

	:Hi there. Sorry but categories cannot be renamed. You usually create the new category, move all the articles to the new category, and add a {{tl\|category redirect}} in the old one. You may need to suggest the change at ], not sure. -- ] 03:23, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

	::Sorry, but I think Rey is wrong on this one. Check it, ] was deleted and renamed to ]. I think renamings happen a lot, especially at ] and probably at ] too. ] 08:02, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

	:::The first line at ] seems to concur with me: ''On this page, deletion, merging, and renaming of categories (pages in the Category namespace) is discussed''
	:::] 08:04, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

	Your right, I have started the process for two of the subcats to be renamed at ]. This just means the names will change to my proposals if it passes. This is a five day process, so I figured I would post these up and work on that other category in the meantime. Also, Ivo if you see this, if you can go there and give your opinion or any other Ill/Chicago members. Thanks guys!--] 11:15, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

	==]==
	Indeed it is. Added to the ] on ], useful , allows queries to the National Register by location and name among other parameters, just in case you wanted to know. I will take a look at what looks like a pretty comprehensive article when I get a chance. It could use {{tl\|Infobox nrhp}}. ] 08:02, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

	== CfDs ==

	In the future, you can add CfDs ], which puts it in a section of the ] but saves the history as its own section. If you want to edit the section you will see where you need to go to make the edits when you try to do so. ] <small>(]/]/]/]) </small> 16:01, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

	== Bot tagging ==

	I am not so sure bot tagging would work the same at the state level. You would have to come to a consensus on how to selectively develop a list. E.g. whereas it is at least moderately relevant to include every alumni of every local univeristy with such an alumni category at the city level, it would be useless at the state level. For starters, You have fewer than 5000 articles at ], we already have over 10,000 at ]. If you use a tag for everything under ] you could have 50 or 100k articles. However, if you are interested you can get started at ]. ] <small>(]/]/]/]) </small> 16:09, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

	==]==
	I created this one awhile back (when I did ]), but I think I thought it was a village at the time, may need a minor tweak or two. ] 05:55, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
	:It seems ] also exists. As for the discussion I am not sure how to approach it and I am not sure if there is a difference in the two designations, but we should probably go with the most commonly used term as opposed to official and I would say that is unincorporated community, settlement, place with people living there, whatever. CDP is pretty heavy handed and bureaucratic in my opinion. ] 11:39, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
	::The dot on the Esmond map is in the wrong spot too, its latitude is about right but it should be over by the Ogle County border, darn it. Just FYI, in case you felt like fixing it. ] 11:40, 21 June 2007 (UTC)


	== deleted article ==

	You recently deleted an entry I had written on Maralee Gordon. I would like to disagree with you on the point that she is insignificant- Rabbi Gordon has been an important leader in her own Jewish community and has had an influential role on expanding the boundaries of women within Judaism and incorporating theories of feminism into Jewish practice. If you visit the Jewish Women's Archive website, you will see that she is featured as one of a number of important Jewish women to the feminist movement. I would really appreciate it if you undeleted that entry, and I know there are many others who would strongly agree with my opinion. Thank you.] 19:03, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

	I ran across your new Madison County township articles. Keep it up! I filled out the list of Ohio townships some months ago, but only with really basic articles — you're doing much better to have a much bigger article than "___ Township is a township in ___ County, Illinois" :-) Hopefully you can get a lot more done soon. ] 03:39, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
	:Speaking of townships I included ] in a suggested Did You Know hook for ], maybe a little main page exposure will search out a potential expander. ] 09:30, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
	::Sorry, no time to do that. Go to ] and click on various townships: you'll see that some are in a much more developed state than others. If you want, however, I'd be willing to create one county's worth of township articles, but in a really basic format, more basic than yours. ] 13:06, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
	:::Yeah, I use a template as well, but it's a lot smaller than yours; about the only benefit that you'd gain from my work, I think, is the changing of red links into blue links. As far as the wikiproject: I know that it could be done, but I'm happy to let others do it :-) I myself find it useful to have the discussion tab remain red if it's not been talked on. I've lately been working on adding county templates to Kansas articles, but I found it confusing at first because Kansas has been a lot more diligent than Ohio has at adding state wikiproject notes. Ah well, I'm sure it will get done sometime, but I have the feeling that not many Ohio people care about the townships. Thanks for the chat! ] 13:22, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

	Hi Kranar, could you look at the map and see if the blue dots for State Fish & Wildlife Areas are distinguishable from the purple dots?

This week marks the fifth week in a row that there has been no significant editorial contribution during the CHICOTW. I would say I am afraid to lose CHIICOTW support by mentioning this, but since NO ONE has come by to help this week, it could not get any worse. If anyone cares about getting an FL at CHICOTW for our past efforts it might be a good idea to express such concern by creating 5 or so stubs from among the redlinks at ].
