I'm trying to update the [[California State Senate]]'s template to reflect the seat left vacant by [[Sharon Runner]]'s death and am not sure how to reprogram [[Template:Representative/current/California_state_senate]] to reflect a vacancy. I read all relevant documentation and I'm still not sure how I'd reprogram the template to reflect a vacancy, since it only appears to work for filled seats with party affiliations. Do you have any insight into how I'd go about updating the template properly? It's been a while since I last did this maintenance work. Thanks!

(answering your answer) yeah I just went in there again, actually, sorry I took a little longer than estimated. It is in fact my error -- one ratio is housing unites and the other is people. I have removed the flag and if I have time to make this clearer at some point I will, but there is non inherent contradiction. You can remove this se |

== Good Article - Los Angeles == |
|||
The [[WP:ARBCOM|Arbitration Committee]] is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the [[Wikipedia:Arbitration|Wikipedia arbitration process]]. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose [[WP:BAN|site bans]], [[WP:TBAN|topic bans]], editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Policy|arbitration policy]] describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. |
|||
As I believe you saw, I nominated Los Angeles for GA status and it failed mostly to my own fault of not seeing some of the issues that were still in the article. Nevertheless I am determined to get it to GA status and have started working on issues listed in the [[Talk:Los Angeles/GA1|GA Review]] but I still have some work to do plus any other issues that still linger afterwards. I know that you are probably one of the most experienced and skilled California editors and I was wondering if you could work with me in improving the article to the point of GA and then co-nominating it with me. I would really appreciate the help on the article so far and I appreciate the consideration. - [[User:SantiLak|<span style="color:#BF00FF;">'''''SantiLak'''''</span>]] <span style="font-size:85%">([[User talk:SantiLak|talk]])</span> 21:36, 25 January 2015 (UTC) |
|||
:I appreciate your confidence in me. I don't have experience with the GA process, and I'm not much interested in Los Angeles as a topic, but I promise to give serious consideration to your inquiry.—[[User:Stepheng3|Stepheng3]] ([[User talk:Stepheng3#top|talk]]) 23:48, 25 January 2015 (UTC) |

::After sleeping on this, I've decided I don't have the energy to help with a GA nomination. I will continue to look for ways to improve the article though. Good luck!—[[User:Stepheng3|Stepheng3]] ([[User talk:Stepheng3#top|talk]]) 20:35, 26 January 2015 (UTC) |

Hey, your edit was actually correct - Pacific is what should be shown, but now for the reason you gave in the edit summary. PST - aka Pacific Standard Time is a time zone, it's the regular time when not observing PDT - aka Pacific Daylight Time.--[[User:NotWillyWonka|NotWillyWonka]] ([[User talk:NotWillyWonka|talk]]) 18:54, 2 February 2015 (UTC) |
|||
Hi! I am currently revamping the UCSF project. I created lots of pages and added a lot of content, but there is so much still to do. I saw that you are part of the SFBA task force, so I thought you might be interested and I wanted to invite you to collaborate once more. In particular, we need to add content, do maintenance, and we really would benefit from pictures, so if you are in SF and could help that would be great. Thanks![[User:Eccekevin|Eccekevin]] ([[User talk:Eccekevin|talk]]) 15:12, 26 July 2017 (UTC) |
|||
:That's not quite accurate. "Pacific Standard Time" and "Pacific Daylight Time" are legal time standards. The time zone (territory) is called "the Pacific Time Zone". Locations in Pacific Time Zone observe PST during the winter months, and many (but not all) observe PDT during the summer months. I admit it's a fine distinction, but worth making in my opinion.—[[User:Stepheng3|Stepheng3]] ([[User talk:Stepheng3#top|talk]]) 19:00, 2 February 2015 (UTC) |
|||
{{Template:WikiProject University of California, San Francisco invite}} |
|||
::Actually, it's very correct and accurate. As a "time zone" is defined as a geographic region within which the same standard time is used. [http://www.timeanddate.com/time/zones/pst PST] and PDT are both Pacific Time Zones, and that is why putting only "Pacific" is better than "PST" - one specific Time Zone observed in certain places at certain times. --[[User:NotWillyWonka|NotWillyWonka]] ([[User talk:NotWillyWonka|talk]]) 19:31, 2 February 2015 (UTC) |
|||
:::I agree with your definition of a time zone, but PST and PDT are not time zones, they are time standards. Beverley Hills is still located in the Pacific Time Zone even when it observes daylight time.—[[User:Stepheng3|Stepheng3]] ([[User talk:Stepheng3#top|talk]]) 19:44, 2 February 2015 (UTC) |

:Thanks for the barnstar. I didn't think there was any mystery about how to thank logged-in editors for specific edits. I issue about three per day, on average. The way I usually do it is I bring up the diff, then click on the "thank" link. There are also "thank" links in the revision history. I haven't found any way to thank IP editors or bots through the notifications interface. For details, see [[Wikipedia:Notifications/Thanks]].

Hi. Thanks for keeping the info box up to date. Please when there is a small change to a legislature don't hide the diagram right away but contact the person who made it or the last person who edited it so they can make a new one and wait a few days before hiding it. It is impossible to keep track of 99 different pages and these diagrams and it is easier to tweak the file than have to make manual edits and then look up the right data and then enter it all over again in the info box. You can also update the diagram yourself using this [http://tools.wmflabs.org/parliamentdiagram/parliamentinputform.html tool] if you are interested.

Hi! Thanks for getting in touch with me. To answer your questions: the edit-a-thon will run from 2pm to 6pm in Meyer Library on the Oakland campus of California College of the Arts. We don't have a more specific schedule planned yet; I was thinking of doing a brief intro at the start with some topic selection and editing advice, as well as links to tutorial videos, and then maybe following up with short editing/research tips at the top of each hour depending on how things go and the questions we hear. The event is sponsored by CCA, specifically the libraries, and we'll have at least a couple staff on hand to help.

:I'm thinking about this. On the one hand, I would regard the department websites as a reliable source for verifying the locations of facilities, names of chiefs, and equipment. On the other hand, they are closely associated with their subjects, and as such cannot establish the notability of their respective departments. To establish notability, I would look into journalistic sources such as the LA Times. Also, I think you made a mistake when you used the phrase "personally attack" because that makes appear that you feel personally attacked.

I noticed you reverted a change of mine about this unfortunate colloquial nickname, arguing it was not reliably sourced. I opened a section on the appropriate [[Talk:Milpitas,_California#Smellpitas|Talk page]], arguing [[WP:CONTEXT|context matters]]. In particular, claiming that something exists can be shown by pointing at it, not always by pointing at someone else pointing at it. For instance, I can show google.com exists by pointing to google.com, and I can show that a term is being used by real people in real conversations by pointing to years worth of this term being used on twitter.com. -- I'm looking forward to your opinion on the matter. --[[User:Elwood j blues|elwood_j_blues]] ([[User talk:Elwood j blues|talk]]) 23:26, 20 March 2015 (UTC) |

Hi. I noticed you reverted an addition I made to the Los Gatos page. I'm new to Wikipedia, but thought it was a useful addition to include the existence of The New Museum on the page.

While those arches might be in the city, a actual photo of the city itself is far far move valuable then a photo of one of its features. If you like I can place a request for comments, on the page and see what other editors feel, but in the past, that has always been a consensus. I suggest you place that nice arch in the story lower down and use the aerial photo of the city in the section of the template that calls for a "image_skyline " as the arch does not provide a image_skyline .

:I disagree. Just because the field is titled "image_skyline" does not mean it has to be a skyline shot. From the air, Modesto looks much like every other major city in the Central Valley.

:I'm sure a pilot's POV is different from that of other people. A pilot is in the habit of noticing airports and such landmarks. That doesn't make the pilot's viewpoint superior. It's very interesting that the arch has its own article, but I don't see why that makes the photo inappropriate for the city's article. [[Modesto City–County Airport]] has its own article. By your logic, perhaps your photo belongs there instead.—[[User:Stepheng3|Stepheng3]] ([[User talk:Stepheng3#top|talk]]) 20:44, 10 April 2015 (UTC) |

::Ammm that is my photo of the airport. It is a photo taken just a few moments before I was direct over Modesto. The airport is in the center of the photo, as it should be. In the center of the photo of the city of Modesto is in fact the entire city of, Modesto, while you can in fact see, to the right the airport it is not the center of the city. The freeway, as you can see in my photo goes right down the middle, of the city in the photo, of the city. What I thought was geographically interesting as well as useful, taking into consideration the Encyclopedic Value of the picture of the entire city was the way it is laid out, something that the picture clearly shows (one big square). We have btw 5 airports in the Simi valley so that really is a poor example. Every human sees maps. We have them on our phone we used to have paper ones in every car. It is safe to say that everyone is well aware of topographical issues pertaining to the city one lives in, but it is difficult to get a full perspective of a area until you put it together by viewing aerial photographs of the area. Many cities have welcome signs arches that are from a previous era and the like. Does that make them a candidate for use as a lead photo, NIMH. To the contrary. Sure that old sigh might have some historic value as it has its own page, but you have yet to give good reason why a photo of a city should not be use in the lead about the city. When you have a real picture of the actual subject, you use it, not a icon that is representative of the city for its historical value.

:::We disagree on so many points, it's hard to know where to start. An aerial photo is very different a map, because a map is abstract and selective. That is why the map view in Google Maps is much more useful than the satellite photo view. To illustrate the layout of the city, use a map, not a photo. Landmarks (large signs, public artwork, water towers, iconic landforms, unique buildings, and so on) are often ideal for representing cities and towns because they are memorable and easily recognizable. But we clearly have very different viewpoints on these issues.

We noticed though that when you edited [[Inyo County, California]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Loch Leven]] ([http://dispenser.homenet.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Inyo_County%2C_California check to confirm] | [http://dispenser.homenet.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Inyo_County%2C_California fix with Dab solver]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small> |

A heated conversation has been going on upon the project talk page. The editor in question seems overzealous (I could be mistaken) in the desire to "expose" this nasty place, but I really don't think it is a broad overview of the facility. I did new photos and some clean up and was asked by the user that had made what I felt were edits that belonged in the body of the page, into the lead.

|||
== notable persons cloverdale == |
|||
Just wanted to thank you for your contributions in cleaning up the [[Manhattan Beach, California|Manhattan Beach, CA]] page way back in 2015. Big ups! |
|||
I shall take your advice and work on persons bio. I read wiki guidelines and see your point. thanks. On another note, since you seem to |
|||
be here often I must point out in the geography of cloverdale hwy 101 no longer runs through the town. Has not for about 20years. |
|||
I know this because I live there([[Special:Contributions/172.12.44.202|172.12.44.202]] ([[User talk:172.12.44.202|talk]]) 12:47, 27 April 2015 (UTC)) |

:I suppose 101 once aligned with Cloverdale Boulevard.

Hello. I noticed that you have undid my revision on [[El Centro, California]] on its box for "Record high" in temperatures. I was only fixing an error in which the record high for July was 125, but it said that the record high was 122 degrees, so I thought it would be appropriate to replace it with the record high for July since it mistakenly stated that 122 was the record high. Didn't you notice that 125, July's record high, was higher than the "record high" for the climate data and would be appropriate to replace it?

:You make a good point. However, what made you think that the July record high was correct? Perhaps someone vandalized the July record high and forgot to alter the all-time record high to match.—[[User:Stepheng3|Stepheng3]] ([[User talk:Stepheng3#top|talk]]) 01:33, 8 May 2015 (UTC) |

*That claim was actually a piece of misinformation, so whoever who changed the average must have tricked me into believing that the average was correct, as July's average was 122 degrees before the vandalism. Like sometimes, some instances of vandalism may go unnoticed for a prolonged period of time, tricking other users into believing that it is correct, like the Jar'Edo Wens hoax that lasted for almost 10 years and it tricked many into believing that this Auberginial deity existed in mythology.

Question regarding California's State Senate members template
[edit]I'm trying to update the California State Senate's template to reflect the seat left vacant by Sharon Runner's death and am not sure how to reprogram Template:Representative/current/California_state_senate to reflect a vacancy. I read all relevant documentation and I'm still not sure how I'd reprogram the template to reflect a vacancy, since it only appears to work for filled seats with party affiliations. Do you have any insight into how I'd go about updating the template properly? It's been a while since I last did this maintenance work. Thanks! One two three... 00:10, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

Creek latitudes
[edit]In this edit you changed the ordering such that Easton Creek didn't appear between Sanchez Creek and Mills Creek as the maps show. I changed it back and deleted the latitude comments you added, since I didn't see an easy way to check and see if some of them were wrong. Dicklyon (talk) 23:33, 27 May 2019 (UTC)

The article Rio Dell, Sonoma County, California has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
No information found about this supposed community. There is a Rio Dell Court in Forestville, but I could not find any source that supports the existence of a Rio Dell "district" or "community". Since California has another Rio Dell in Humboldt County, this article is confusing and pointless; fails WP:V and WP:GNG. Another useless GNIS-only stub.
