I get lost in all the sections on this project so I don't know where to put this. A "thing to do" is to correct the article titles for places in San Diego County or City. Many are incorrectly formed and the redlinks on the list of SD city neighborhoods are also misformed. Where should this task go? Thanks, -] 06:08, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

For renaming the cities and neighborhoods in San Diego County, it may be useful to create a worksheet similar to the one that I've started to work on for Los Angeles County.

{{Template:SoCalTasks}}Most of you have probably noticed the "Open Talk" infobox that is up at the top right of the page next to the Table of Contents.

==Stubs==
The {{tl|California-geo-stub}} category (]) is becoming quite large (~450 articles), and I keep finding SoCal city and community articles that should have the geo-stub template that don't, so I've suggested over at the ] that one or more new geo-stubs should be created for California.

== Categories ==


This is to explain what I think needs to be done under ] #1. Category cleanup:


Thanks, and happy editing!
The other day I was going to try to create a couple of listings (with heirarchy) for the categories for California and SoCal topics, but after a quick examination of the categories involved, I postponed my efforts. It was clear that rather than the quick hour of work I was planning to do, it was going to take much longer than that (especially because I wouldn't just be listing the categories, but would be trying to clean up all the problems that I found). These problems included:


] and ]
#confusing organization of the categories
</div>
#poorly named categories
(timestamp may not be accurate) <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 15:13, 3 June 2015 (UTC)</small>
#duplicate or overlapping categories where all the articles should be moved to a single category and the other one deleted
#too narrow a categorization (i.e. categories that will never have more than a few articles)


== ] ==
On the other side of the coin are a large number of SoCal articles without articles, or are in the wrong categories, or are in too broad a category and need to be moved to a more focused category. (For example, a large number of the ]-generated city and community articles have had their stub tags removed, even though they only have a few sentences beyond the original Rambot article.)


Members of this project may be interested in . ] (]) 04:12, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
What I think needs to be done are:


== FAR ==
*reorganize the SoCal categories.
*move articles to new categories that need to be moved.
*delete any duplicate categories and too-narrow categories.
*rename poorly named categories.
*create new categories?

===Category layout===
From the category list I generated, it seems Category:California is laid out as follows:
*subject categories:
**]
***rename to History_of_California
**]
***rename to Geography_of_California
**]
**]
**rename to Maps_of_California
**]
***rename to Tribes_in_California
**]
**]
***rename to Hotels_in_California
**]
**]
***put under Associations_in_California
**]
***rename to Law_of_California
**]
**]
***rename to Media_in_California
**]
***rename to Sports_of_California
**]
**]
***rename to Landmarks_of_California
**]
***rename to Culture_of_California
**]
***merge with California_landmarks.
**]
**]
**]
**]
***rename to Botanical_gardens_of_California and put as a subcat of California_landmarks
**]
***rename to Libraries_in_California and put as a subcat of Education_in_California
**]
***rename to Shopping_malls_in_California
**]
***find a way to distinguish it from actual subject categories, as it is a content, rather than a subject, category - i.e. there are no "images" really in California, but only Images '''of''' California in Misplaced Pages.
**]
***make this the parent of California_shopping_malls, California_hotels, Hospitals_in_California, and California_landmarks(maybe)
**]
***The stub project is probably going to rename this to California_stubs
***of which all California stub cats should go under(i.e. they should not go in Category:California itself) - this may be fixed already.
*geographical hierarchies:
**]
**] - which should not be a top-level category, obviously.
**] - a semi-alternative to California_counties, but not exactly...

Regarding the many subject categories, some are pretty obviously on the same topic, and so should be merged, and probably they should be divided into larger groupings and put into subcats in that way.

== Invitation for a Edit a thon in Chula Vista ==
I'm curious about this. The current method we have for naming the lines is ], the stations being ]. But the other rail lines, they are named differently. The Red Line for the Washington Metro is ] instead of ], and a station named ] instead of ]. Should we rename them to the Washington Metro style or keep with the current naming scheme? ] 05:15, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


]
:I believe the Washington Metro more closely matches the ]. However, a specific policy for transportation systems is still "under debate" (see ]). That being said, I agree that the current naming of LACMTA articles leaves something to be desired. Here's a couple possibilities of what I think the names should be:
<b>Who:</b> All members of the public
:* ] →
:** ]
:** ]
:** ]
:* ] →
:** ]
:** ]
:** ]
:* ''or'' ] →
:** ]
:** ]
:** ]
:The two choices I see are: 1) what should be in parentheses, and 2) how should the stations be named. I'm pretty sure that using "Metro Red Line", "Metro Blue Line", etc. is best because Metro itself uses that naming almost exclusively. This is kind of covered by ], but not exactly. I think my personal preferences on the two questions are: 1) use "Los Angeles Metro" or "Los Angeles MTA", and 2) include the word "Station" in the article name. The second thing does not match Metro's usage, as they rarely include the word "Station" when referring to stations on metro.net. P.S. The Pico article should be called "Pico-Chick Hearn Station" since that is its official name, not just "Pico". ] 15:41, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


<b>What:</b> ].
I had a similar question which I posted on the ]. Is the real name Pico'''-'''Chick Hearn? The page spells it with a slash. I also pointed out 7th St/Metro Center; its actual title is 7th St/Metro Center/Julian Dixon, but it doesn't appear to be very common usage. ] 21:43, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


<b>When:</b> Sunday 14 April 2019, 2:00PM PST / 1400 until 4:00PM PST / 1600
:Sorry. I wasn't trying to specifically say that it should be a hyphen. Another interesting thing with the link you provided is that Pico is the only one that has "Station" in the name on that page. Another thing to note is that when I was riding the Red Line between 2003 and 2005, some operators (conductors?, engineers?) would use the eponymous part of the station name and others wouldn't. One guy in particular would always say "Tom Bradley/Civic Center Station" and "7th and Metro/Julian Dixon Station" (he always said the word "and", unlike with "Wilshire/Western Station"). ] 22:02, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


<b>Where:</b> Chula Vista Public Library Civic Center Branch
::Were they automated? I think I recall that the automated recordings would state the full name, while the human voice would simply say the common name. My Red Line experiences have been all with operator voices and I can't recall any of them saying the "Tom Bradley" (I commute to MOCA, so I get off at Civic Center all the time) - heck, I didn't even know that it had that surname until you mentioned it. ] 23:04, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


<b>Sponsor:</b> ]
:::Unlike the Gold Line, the Red Line announcements were not automated when I last took the train (they may be now). This guy was just really animated. For example, he always opened with "Good morning, good morning, good morning ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the Metro Red Line.". ] 23:56, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


<b>Your host:</b> {{User|RightCowLeftCoast}}
::::The Red Line may possibly not be automated. My memories are probably from the the Green ane Blue Lines, as I ride those two for longer times (Green Line takes 10 minutes, Blue Line takes 22-40 minutes, and Red Line is a scant 3 minutes). I know for sure that the Green Line is fully automated; I sometimes hear automated recordings on the Blue Line. ] 00:34, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Popular pages report

We – Community Tech – are happy to announce that the Popular pages bot is back up-and-running (after a one year hiatus)! You're receiving this message because your WikiProject or task force is signed up to receive the popular pages report. Every month, Community Tech bot will post at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject California/Southern California task force/Popular pages with a list of the most-viewed pages over the previous month that are within the scope of WikiProject California.

We've made some enhancements to the original report. Here's what's new:

  • The pageview data includes both desktop and mobile data.
  • The report will include a link to the pageviews tool for each article, to dig deeper into any surprises or anomalies.
  • The report will include the total pageviews for the entire project (including redirects).

We're grateful to Mr.Z-man for his original Mr.Z-bot, and we wish his bot a happy robot retirement. Just as before, we hope the popular pages reports will aid you in understanding the reach of WikiProject California, and what articles may be deserving of more attention. If you have any questions or concerns please contact us at m:User talk:Community Tech bot.

Proposed split of Criticism of the Walt Disney Company page

Hello everyone! I would like your input on a discussion at Talk:Criticism of the Walt Disney Company#Splitting off content to Criticism of Walt Disney Animation Studios about whether to split off content from five sub-sections about Walt Disney Animation Studios to the Criticism of Walt Disney Animation Studios, in order to ensure that the page complies with WP:SIZESPLIT.
