Atlanta Georgia Temple

Thanks for expanding the article on the Atlanta Georgia Temple. A lot of the Wikipedia temple articles don’t have much beyond vital statistics, so it’s nice to see one improved.

I’m going to change back some of the changes you made to Template:LDS Temple/Atlanta Georgia Temple, and I wanted to explain why. According to the official church website (here), the 1997 event was a rededication, and it is termed so similarly to other temples that have had additions. That page is also a template, with data that is shared by many pages. By changing the parameter keyword “rededication” to “addition” (on the left-hand side of an = sign), you inadvertently caused the rededication date to go missing in the info box and also on List of temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and Comparison of temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I’m also going to change “film” back to “movie”, to be consistent with other temples.

A few of us “Wikipedians” have set up a project to improve temple articles on Wikipedia, you can check out what we’re doing here: Wikipedia:WikiProject Latter Day Saint movement/Temples.

Thanks again for your contributions. Jaksmata 14:07, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Joseph_Standing.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Joseph_Standing.gif. 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

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 ensure 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media 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. Rettetast (talk) 20:34, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

delete image

{{adminhelp}}

I uploaded the wrong image and I need it to be deleted quickly. The image that needs to be deleted is File:ACS_logo.png. I uploaded the correct version afterwards "Acs logo.jpg". Thank you! Matthew R. Lee (talk) 16:33, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see that file anymore. In the future, you can add {{db-g7}} to the description field of an image you've uploaded, and it will be deleted by whichever admin comes along next. Cheers, Jclemens (talk) 06:33, 19 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:American Cancer Society Center.JPG

File Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:American Cancer Society Center.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Radiant chains (talk) 04:49, 9 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Radiant chains. I added the correct copyright status and restored the image. Matthew R. Lee (talk) 16:20, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Thank You for the Wikipedia Picture

     (LDS Atlanta Temple)

Hello, My name is Duane Hurst and I recently made a free (non-commercial) English web site to share information with people. I added links to your Wikipedia/Wikimedia freeware picture. I also gave credit to you on my web pages for your work. Thank you for sharing with the public. My website is:

http://www.freeenglishsite.com/

I also am a "Mormon" and my web site has a Mormon section that contains my Book of Mormon map (pictures of actual locations), my translation of Egyptian hieroglyphs from the Book of Abraham, and other items. I have shared and discussed these with various LDS general authorities and given many fireside presentations about them in Japan, Thailand and USA. My web site sections about the USA and World also have LDS membership and temple information for each country.

I add pictures such as yours to one of the following major sections of my site: 1. World section - contains information and over 10,000 images of every world country and territory. Link at: http://www.freeenglishsite.com/world/index.htm

2. USA section - contains information and images of every USA state and territory. Link at: http://www.freeenglishsite.com/world/usa/index.htm

3. English section - "Mel and Wes" lessons in conversation format. Stories are located in various USA states and world countries such as China, England, Germany, Japan, Mexico and Thailand. Each lesson has many slang terms and idioms, which I link to my Slang Dictionary. This eventually will have over 5,000 terms. Currently, it has about 3,000 slang and idioms. I regularly add new lessons and slang terms. Link at: http://www.freeenglishsite.com/english/lessons/index.htm Slang Dictionary link at: http://www.freeenglishsite.com/english/slang/Eslang_a.htm

Prior to retirement, I taught English at several private and public universities in the United States.

Please share this free site with your friends. I hope all will enjoy the pictures and find the English information useful. Sincerely, Duane Hurst in Utah, USA

Tucker, Georgia

Matthew: Ease up a bit on the Tucker designation for articles like Henderson Mill Road and Northlake Mall (Atlanta), etc. Your efforts might appear, to some, as advocacy. Henderson Mill Road appears to be located in the (potential) new city of Lakeside, or the area traditionally designated as Northlake, but not Tucker. Northlake Mall is not included in most definitions of Tucker (which starts somewhere on the other side of I-285). I'm sure you're just taking the view of "Greater Tucker", but since these areas are presently disputed between various factions seeking incorporation it would be best for Wikipedia if we remain neutral...and drop the effort to categorize everything within a 5 mile radius of Mainstreet as "Tucker" (for now). Gulbenk (talk) 06:29, 22 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Gulbenk. Historically, and according to the current zip code, Tucker extends west of I-285 beyond Montreal Road, but you make a good point. I removed the designation from Henderson Mill Road. Matthew R. Lee (talk) 07:45, November 2013 (UTC)

Matthew: Very impressed with your work on the Tucker article. Great job! I've lived in the area for half a lifetime, and wasn't aware all of the facts you uncovered. The article will require some revision, however, if the Lakeside bill makes it through the legislature. So the article has to be viewed as a work in progress.Gulbenk (talk) 16:20, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your feedback and for your edits, Gulbenk. Tucker is far more than the article indicates but to avoid unnecessary conflict, I took a conservative approach and reduced Tucker to a core area that is typically undisputed. I agree, incorporation or annexation of any area inside the Tucker CCD will affect the article. Matthew R. Lee (talk) 04:47, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Vista Grove, Georgia

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Requesting assistance in deleting the article Vista Grove, Georgia?

' 'Vista Grove Plaza' ' is the name of shopping plaza at 2862 Lavista Road, built in the 1960’s, in unincorporated DeKalb County, Georgia.

The article fails to provide sources identifying the larger area by the name ' 'Vista Grove.' ' The neighborhoods, schools, and houses of worship listed in the article do not now nor have they ever, constituted an area or community called Vista Grove.

The only church that might qualify to bear the name, due to proximity, is Mt. Zion A.M.E. Church. Yet the church website makes no mention of Vista Grove. None of the residential developments adjacent to the shopping plaza use the name Vista Grove and the plaza is not mentioned as a point of reference on any of their websites (See; Vista Green, Leafmore Forest Condominiums, Oak Grove Heights (atlantatownhomes.com)).

Least anyone think the article should be renamed ' 'Oak Grove,' ' the neighborhoods, schools, and houses of worship in the article cover a much wider area than Oak Grove.

For example, Congregation Beth Jacob, is located 2 miles away in Biltmore Acres across from Merry Hills neighborhood. Central Congregational United Church of Christ is 2.2 miles away. Hawthorne Elementary School is 3.2 miles away. Shallowford Presbyterian Church is 2.6 miles away. None of these, like the majority listed in the article, have any association with Vista Grove Plaza or Oak Grove.

This Wikipedia article is likely an advocacy piece for a real estate agent or possibly the Vista Grove Initiative website promoting the introduction of a cityhood bill to the Georgia state legislature. Leaving it as is and not deleting it, could lead less informed residents, potential home buyers, the media, students, and legislators to believe that Vista Grove is an established community with an identity. This article does not meet Wikipedia standards for verifiability, citing sources, or accuracy and should be deleted. Matthew R. Lee (talk) 09:47, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
