== Tanglewood Forest photo ideas ==

I found ] was a former CDP annexed by Austin. One idea is to photograph its local school, Kocurek Elementary School (9800 Curlew Dr, Austin, TX 78748). I wonder if there are neighborhood signage or other markers of the area.

Thanks for your message. I was just coming to your page to drop you a note. The proper place to sort out whether or not an image is being used appropriately on a particular article is not deletion review (it's outside their scope because no page deletion has occurred). Nor is it RFC or the ARBCOM. We are supposed to try to sort things out ourselves before throwing those hand grenades into the mix. The proper place to sort out whether or not a fair use claim can be made is either on the image's Talk page or the article's Talk page. Given the expertise of the usual participants, it's my experience that you get more informed discussions on the image's Talk page. Accordingly, I've opened an initial discussion there. Please bring your comments to that discussion.
*{{Re|MPGuy2824}} Pecos mosquito fish is an outdated usage I found in a 10-year-old book. The correct spelling probably should have been Pecos mosquitofish.

I don't particularly care about the image in this case but I feel quite strongly that you need to follow the proper process. Repeatedly removing content when others are immediately restoring it is edit warring. You've already exceeded the three-revert-rule - and while blatant copyvios are exempt from 3RR, you are basing this decision on a very narrow interpretation of an ambiguous clause which has already been discussed by multiple people who appear equally well versed in the law and in Misplaced Pages's image policy and was ''not'' confirmed in the recent IfD. Neither was it specifically excluded but it's clear that whatever the decision is, it's not a blatant call either way.

Tanglewood Forest photo ideas

I found Tanglewood Forest, Texas was a former CDP annexed by Austin. One idea is to photograph its local school, Kocurek Elementary School (9800 Curlew Dr, Austin, TX 78748). I wonder if there are neighborhood signage or other markers of the area.

Also I found there are some parks that may be nice to photograph that are in Tanglewood Forest.

  • Tanglewood Forest Park (9801 Curlew Drive ) - Includes a swimming pool
  • Gazebo Park (2905 Jubilee Trail)
  • Greenbrier Park (2810 Slaughter Ln.)
  • Howellwood Park (2524 Howellwood Way)
  • Idyllwild Park (2204 Slaughter Ln.)
  • Kempler Park (9302 Kempler Dr.)
  • Lindshire Park (10204 Lindshire Ln)
  • Renaissance Park (2204 Tabor Ct.)
  • Woodlands Park (3011 Slaughter Ln.)

Hutchins
  • Hutchins City Hall: 321 North Main Street, Hutchins, TX 75141

A barnstar for you

The Photographer's Barnstar
Thanks for your excellent picture of the Moore-Flack House. I included it in the new article for John Marks Moore. I hope that it's alright with you. Happy editing! Aneirinn (talk) 17:07, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

McKinney Roughs Nature Park

Hello. Just wanted to thank you for taking pictures of McKinney Roughs Nature Park when you visited in 2022. I've used them for the new article: McKinney Roughs Nature Park. Feel free to review and provide feedback if you'd like. If you would like to collaborate on articles about the Austin area, feel free to reach out! Morogris (✉ • ✎) 19:08, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

  • Hello again. Do you have pictures of the Hyatt Resort near McKinney Roughs? I'll be working on that article next.
I just finished a draft for the giant squirrel statue they have in Cedar Creek (if you have any pictures that would be great)! I may go visit there in about a month to take pictures and could potentially stop by Hyatt and McKinney Roughs too. PS - I'll follow your page so you can respond here. Thanks! Morogris (✉ • ✎) 19:32, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
I just have a selfie of Ms. Pearl and me, and the same for the Hyatt Resort, nothing that would be good for an article. Maybe I can get over there in the next week or so and get some images you can use until you get to visit the sites. Nv8200pa talk 22:24, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi Nv8200pa. Thank you for your work on Pecos mosquito fish. Another editor, MPGuy2824, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

please add this common name with a reference to the target page

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|MPGuy2824}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

  • @MPGuy2824: Pecos mosquito fish is an outdated usage I found in a 10-year-old book. The correct spelling probably should have been Pecos mosquitofish. I couldn't find a current reliable source that uses the term as an alternate for Pecos gambusia. Please delete. Thanks. Nv8200pa talk 11:46, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
    Would you have considered the book reliable at the time? If so, the alternative name is still an acceptable redirect (even though it is outdated). You could have added the details of the book as the ref. In any case, seems good enough. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 11:54, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
