Hillsboro, Oregon

Thanks for starting the article on David Hill--I'm surprised there wasn't one already. I cleaned it up and added some categories. I hope you like the changes. If you have any sources for the information, that would be great. Ask me if you need help with citations. Katr67 16:04, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for providing references so quickly. I formatted them, take a look. If you're interested in Oregon stuff you might want to consider joining WikiProject Oregon. Happy editing! Katr67 22:21, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Reedville, Oregon

Are you planning to add anything more to Reedville? Last time I tried in good faith to spruce up an article about a small town in Oregon the person got really mad at me, so I wanted to ask before I add some historic info from Oregon Geographic Names, etc. Thanks, Katr67 00:33, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:HillsboroShuteIndian.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:HillsboroShuteIndian.JPG. Misplaced Pages gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Misplaced Pages, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions. 07:06, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Orenco Station

Would you like to write an article on Orenco Station that differentiates between the development and the former community, of Orenco, Oregon? I've been too lazy to do it and you are going gangbusters on the Hillsboro stuff so I thought you would like to do it. Great pic of Harvey BTW! (and all your other pics too) Katr67 15:36, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation. Yeah original research is frowned on. I was thinking of making a stub for Orenco Station, but I probably wouldn't add enough material to justify separating it from Orenco, Oregon for now, so I'll leave it alone. Would it be safe to say say "The former community of Orenco now forms the Orenco neighborhood in Hillsboro, which is the site of the Orenco Station housing development"?

You're welcome about Old Scotch Church most of the credit goes to the NRHP infobox. I listed the article on the NRHP project page too. Hmm. References from plates, huh? I don't know if you can use those. If I were you I would take whatever info is on the plates and type it into Google and see if there is anything there. But maybe you could take a photo of the plates and stick them in the article too. Katr67 03:32, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Mission Mill Museum

Hey, one of these days do you think you could take some pictures at Mission Mill? I'd like to spruce up the article but it really needs some photos. Thanks! Katr67 19:22, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Narcissa Whitman

You rock for writing this article! It's always bugged me that she redirected to Marcus Whitman. Katr67 23:51, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

History of Oregon

You might be interested to know that EngineerScotty started this subpage of the Oregon WikiProject: Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Oregon/History of Oregon. As he says here, we need that article if we ever want to get the Oregon article to featured status. Katr67 23:57, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
