Why was this page moved without consensus, against Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive84? Also, there is no "correct name" since the naming disputes have not yet been resolved.-Jeff (talk) 00:03, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Exit list changes

[edit]

Someone just came in and changed the exit list like a bat out of hell and it now looks like crap! I dunno what they did, but I don't have any of those nice little tools that can fix huge rewrites with a few clicks. I see where he's going with it, but with out-of-place junk like the "Terminus of I-78/US 22" (that's only 120 miles away, dufus...), this just devalued the content tenfold. Can anyone help, and can we please discuss changes of this caliber before making them next time instead of just be reckless and doing whatever we feel like when we're in the mood? Thanks!

Edits to tables, especially those using rowspan, should be made carefully. I suggest to the editor who made the changes, check out help:table. I'll revert the table but copy the changed table here for easy access to whoever wants to properly add the intended info back in.-Jeff (talk) 00:21, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:New Jersey Turnpike Shield.svg

[edit]

Image:New Jersey Turnpike Shield.svg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 16:59, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to 9 external links on Delaware Route 1. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

This message was posted before February 2018. After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the RfC before doing mass systematic removals. This message is updated dynamically through the template {{source check}} (last update: 5 June 2024).

  • If you have discovered URLs which were erroneously considered dead by the bot, you can report them with this tool.
  • If you found an error with any archives or the URLs themselves, you can fix them with this tool.

Date of KWVMH designation

[edit]

Perhaps it would be helpful to mention the date when the toll road portion of DE 1 was designated as the Korean War Veterans Memorial Highway. Needforspeed888 (talk) 10:18, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
