Arbcom case you might be interested in

I just filed a case regarding Doncram's editing behavior. Since you spoke up strongly for him in a recent AN/I discussion, I wanted to make sure you saw it. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 06:39, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. In the arbcom request, SarekOfVulcan has cited a recent edit by you to the Architects of the National Park Service article as evidence. I would welcome your reviewing that and providing your characterization of the same, if you are willing.

I replied to your relatively recent reply at Talk:Architects of the National Park Service about the Chattanooga and Chickamauga National Park item, too. Further, I note in history that you recently removed a number more items from the list. This is fodder for the arbcom apparently. I did ask at the Talk page for you to move items to the Talk page rather than simply removing them, because it would be relatively easy for you to do so in the process, while it takes more effort later, and in my judgment it would be worth remembering and being able to reconsider those removals later. On the Chattanooga one, although I agree with your removal in the end, I believe that finding the NRHP documentation and considering it was worthwhile, and easily could have led to our agreeing it should be restored. However I gather your judgment of the relative costs involved and of the likelihoods of restoration involved are different than mine, and I won't bring up this request again. Thanks. --do ncr am 20:34, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cbl, I noticed your comment and doncram's talk page. In fact, we can contribute "evidence" to the case at this stage. Below is the notice I received of it at my talk page. The original deadline was Jan. 17, but the date originally on my talk page was Jan. 24. Subsequently, doncram asked for and received an extension until Jan. 24. (There is clearly something wrong with my notice, because the date advances a day each day.) Lvklock (talk) 02:32, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

An arbitration case in which you commented has been opened, and is located at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Doncram. Evidence that you wish the Arbitrators to consider should be added to the evidence sub-page, at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Doncram/Evidence. Please add your evidence by December 10, 2013, which is when the evidence phase closes. You can contribute to the case workshop sub-page, Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Doncram/Workshop. For a guide to the arbitration process, see Wikipedia:Arbitration/Guide to arbitration. For the Arbitration Committee, (X! · talk) · @812 · 18:29, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Still time to comment

There's still time to submit evidence in that Doncram arbitration case, if you have anything to say, and there are several more days for "workshop" discussion. I'm particularly concerned (on Doncram's behalf) to see that Doncram hasn't submitted anything yet. Maybe you can encourage him to do so... --Orlady (talk) 21:35, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Cbl, are you still willing to co-nominate me? If so, I am contemplating doing it at the end of January or beginning of February. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 22:38, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I would be happy to. You would be a great admin. Have not done it before so it would help to have an experienced co-nominator. Cbl62 (talk) 22:50, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, sir. Secret previously offered to nominate, and I'm following up with him. I may also ask Ironholds to co-nom, too ---- God knows he had enough experience! Nothing like a good roast for entertainment. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 00:00, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How soon do you expect it to be (i.e. How soon do you want me to have a statement prepared)? AutomaticStrikeout (T • C) 04:02, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, ASO. Either next Friday or the following Friday, I think. I'm trying to clear the deck to be able to respond to questions as they arise. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 12:15, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If ASO is taking the laboring oar and preparing a statement, Friday evening is fine. I've got an all-day mediation on Friday, but can make time that evening or Saturday to add my statement of support. Cbl62 (talk) 23:37, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Followup question

Cbl, can we be ready to kick off the RfA Friday evening, February 1? Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 18:42, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Head's up: Secret wanted to push back the kick off until Sunday. He's fully engaged and doing his usual vulnerability background check on the candidate, and I want him to have all of the time he needs. I will ping you when he's ready to roll. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 22:09, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

University of Michigan Olympians

Cbl, would you be interested in creating a List of University of Michigan Olympians? I've left similar messages for Tony and Jweiss. It would parallel similar lists for the University of Florida, Princeton and other major university contributors of Olympic athletes. Good references are available, and I'm happy to point the way for anyone who wants to create this list, including a roster of swimmers, sources, etc. There is a partial list included in List of University of Michigan sporting alumni, but it's not even close to complete. Let me know . . . I am contemplating a major clean-up of the University of Florida Olympians list, and I'm looking for ideas. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 01:25, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Americana at Brand

Cbl62, I noticed that you wrote the section in Americana at Brand called "Fireworks display causes controversy." I'm a Glendale resident who shops at the Americana occasionally, and when I read this wiki article, that section just seemed a little out of place and not that relevant anymore. I lived in Glendale in 2008 as well. I remember the incident being a little annoying, and probably relevant for inclusion in the Wikipedia article in 2008, but four and a half years later, I just don't think it matters anymore. I'm not an employee of the Americana, nor was I paid to write this. I just think that a small mistake made by a company a single time several years ago, that didn't establish a pattern, doesn't deserve a large negative section in their relatively small Wikipedia article.

Nicknames

I notice that you have been removing nicknames from the introductory, bold listing of name in many baseball player articles in recent days. This struck me as being odd. It's always been my understanding that the nicknames should be listed when a player was commonly known by the nickname. E.g. Baseball Hall of Famers Babe Ruth', Whitey Ford, Pepper Martin, Sparky Anderson, Yogi Berra, Chief Bender, Catfish Hunter, Lefty Grove, Kid Nichols, Rube Foster, Dizzy Dean, Home Run Baker, Cool Papa Bell, Candy Cummings, Jocko Conlan, Goose Goslin, Gabby Hartnett, Chick Hafey, King Kelly, Happy Chandler, etc. Has there been a more recent discussion reflecting a change in consensus on this?

swath planning?

Hey, thanks for your comment at time of arbitration process, which may have had some effect. And thanks for your collaboration in the ND articles, now recognized in "Articled" graphic. (If the graphic here is not updated, this seems to show full status.)

By the way, i notice that just 48 in San Bernardino Cty, 70 in Orange Cty, and 36 strategic others that i'll work on would make a swath of 100% articled counties from the ocean to North Dakota and Canada.... :) --do ncr am 13:27, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, it's turned out the swath is coming out through NRHPs in Ventura County instead of the O.C. All but 2 archeological sites have articles there now, and dark red runs from NRHPs in Kern County all the way to Kansas now. :) An interesting one just found is User:Doncram/Charles M. Pratt House, an ultimate bungalow arguably more spectacular than the Gamble House. Out of all that I've touched in quite a while I am guessing this one might be the one you'd be most interested in further developing...your taking that one over would be most welcome, if you're interested.

Great work!

Just wanted to drop a line to say although I am not a Michigan man, I am always impressed with the work you do on Wolverines football history and season articles. After seeing your recent "History of ..." articles, I was inspired to start one for Alabama Crimson Tide football under Nick Saban and look to gradually knock more off the list of Bama coaches back to at least Wallace Wade. I know it will take a while, but to see another editor on here consistently produce such top-notch content on the college team they are passionate about, really motivates me to develop more about my beloved Crimson Tide. It's not said enough around here, but thank you for all of the excellent work you do to produce comprehensive, interesting and cited content in the college football realm. It's always a treat to see what you come up with next! Go Blue and Roll Tide! Patriarca12 (talk) 01:24, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the words of encouragement. It would be great to see the coverage of all the major programs developed more fully to the point where wikipedia is the authoritative, comprehensive, and reliable one-stop shop for college football history. Cbl62 (talk) 15:21, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Potential same person?

I just realized that Tom Scott (American football coach) (found on {{Brooklyn Dodgers (AAFC) coach navbox}}) might be the same as Tommy Scott (coach) (found on the Old Dominion football, basketball, and baseball navboxes). I'm only basing this possibility on them sharing the same name and being in the same era. Can you confirm whether this is the same person or not? Jrcla2 (talk) 18:59, 8 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jweiss11. First, I'm going to say that User:Cbl62 is the best editor I've ever seen at digging up historical resources and verifying cases of "is this the same person?" That being said, I think you're pretty darn good at it too. I left Cbl a message (found here) but he might be busy and hasn't gotten back to me. Do you have any inclination to see if you can tackle this potential case of same-identity? If not no biggie. Thanks! Jrcla2 (talk) 13:26, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cbl62 is indeed a great researcher and editor. I found this 1946 NY Times article that says Tom Scott of the Brooklyn Dodgers was 26 at the time. Blurb from another article found here says the Brooklyn Dodgers coach played at Army in the 1940s. So, looks it's not the same guy as Tommy Scott (coach).

Connie Hill age discrepancy

Cbl62, I was hoping you could solve (or at least address) the age discrepancy in the Connie Hill article.

The infobox, which bases the age on the actual birth and death dates, gives 83. The sources—the Providence Journal obituary cited, which I can't see in full and the abstract of which doesn't include any dates or ages, and the FN4 UMich source cited in non-date capacities—apparently say 82, which is what is listed in the article. Can you recheck whichever source you used for the birth date, and if it is indeed 1918, then the article should probably note the discrepancy between birth date and obits, as having the two ages is a bit confusing.

I am looking for some images of Penn State players from recent seasons, but seeing as whatever we upload to Wikipedia has to be published under a license allowing commercial use, I am not finding much anywhere, including Flickr.

Louisiana–Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns football

An editor moved the Louisiana–Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns football article to Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns football a couple days ago without any discussion even though consensus had been reached in favor of Louisiana–Lafayette as recently as June 2013. For some reason it's not allowing me to move the football article back to where it should be. I tried posting it on the move request page, but a bot has deleted it twice. Would you please help revert the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns football page back to Louisiana–Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns football? Thank you. Treydavis3 (talk) 02:18, 22 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Did you know nominations/1952–53 Michigan Wolverines men's ice hockey season

Cbl62, the QPQ reviews for these two articles have been pending for three weeks now. Are you planning to do them soon, or should the nomination be closed? I'm a bit reluctant to include them on the list I'm preparing of old nominations still needing review with the QPQs undone. Thanks for letting me know.

Mayo Smith

Quite a job you did on that article. How come it's not at WP:GAN yet? – Muboshgu (talk) 18:48, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Mayo Smith

On 2 November 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Mayo Smith, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that ESPN.com ranked the decision by Mayo Smith (pictured) to move Mickey Stanley to shortstop for the 1968 World Series as the third "gutsiest call" in sports history? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Mayo Smith. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
