Welcome

edit

It is nice to meet you. I see that you are working on some articles. Let me know if you need help - whether it be with admin tasks, explanation about how things work around here, or mentoring for Good Articles. I'm not very active this time of the year - until local stock car racing gets done in early to mid October - then plan to see me a lot more. I like track chasing around Eastern Wisconsin. Dirt and asphalt tracks from April to Oct and ice racing in Jan/Feb. I recently uploaded pictures from the 2010 Nationwide race at Road America; they turned out very well [1]. I have hundreds of images to upload from recent trips in the Midwest. Royalbroil 03:49, 15 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Nice to meet you too. I'm having a lot of fun delving deeper into editing and working on articles. I have been learning a lot about Good Articles and currently trying to get the Auto Club Speedway article up to GA status, I think I'm close. I plan on working on other track articles too.

edit

  Hello! Your submission of Diamond Valley Lake at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Smartse (talk) 15:51, 25 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'll remove this from the nomination page. It's a pity it doesn't meet the requirements as it's a good article and an interesting hook! Good luck with the GAN. Smartse (talk) 21:10, 26 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Your GA nomination of Auto Club Speedway

edit

The article Auto Club Speedway you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold  . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Auto Club Speedway for things which need to be addressed.

Thanks for the review! Lvi56 (talk) 03:04, 16 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
(talk page stalker)Congradulations, I thought it wouldn't become a GA, but you showed me wrong. Also anothe thing that is impressive, it is the first Auto racing circuit / track to ever reach GA level Nascar1996 02:39, 16 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, hopefully more will follow. Lvi56 (talk) 03:04, 16 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Phoenix

Just to let you know, I repaired the logo for the race track: File:Phoenix International Raceway Logo.jpg. Nascar1996 02:55, 16 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thanks! Lvi56 (talk) 03:05, 16 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
You're welcome. Next time you may want to check out {{Non-free use rationale}}. Nascar1996 03:07, 16 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
Also, in articles NASCAR should be capitalized because it is the initials of 'National Asscociation for Stock Car Auto Racing'. Nascar1996 20:33, 16 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
If you would like to (after PIR); how about Charlotte Motor Speedway, or Daytona, or possible get a peer review of Indianapolis Motor Speedway (which I think was close one other time). There just suggestions. :) Nascar1996 22:59, 16 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
Certainly those three could reach GA. Not so sure PIR will make the cut. Good suggestions. Lvi56 (talk) 01:22, 17 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
Why, cant find references? Not enough information? Nascar1996 01:45, 17 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Charlotte

edit

Hello, would you like some images of Charlotte Motor Speedway? I might even has a couple about the dirt track. Also, most of the big track pictures are from the infield. Nascar1996 23:17, 25 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Additional pictures would be great. Lvi56 (talk) 23:19, 25 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
I'll probably will upload them soon. (they do have the date though) Nascar1996 23:20, 25 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
I added the best ones I had. 1 of Turn 2, 1 of the Dirt track from the road, 1 of the start/finish line. Nascar1996 01:31, 26 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
I'll have a look at them, thanks. Lvi56 (talk) 01:49, 26 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
If you can get everyone of List of NASCAR race tracks all GA, you could nominate it as a good topic. Nascar1996 04:27, 26 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
Would that mean every single track on that page? Lots of the older/early dirt ovals would be very difficult to find info on.Lvi56 (talk) 05:09, 26 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
Okay, I forgot about that. Sorry. Nascar1996 05:11, 26 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
Bristol Motor Speedway probably will be easier than some of the others because it has more information. Might not have a lot of sources though. Nascar1996 21:51, 26 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
It's on my list to do Lvi56 (talk) 23:06, 26 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Indianapolis Motor Speedway GAN

edit

Hi there, I thought I'd give you a heads-up that I am reviewing your Good Article Nomination of Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It will probably take me a day or so to complete the review, but since you're taking a wikibreak I thought you'd appreciate some advance notice. If you don't have enough time at the moment, please let me know and I will alert WP:AOWR; I'm sure other editors will be able and willing to help out.--Midgrid(talk) 19:46, 2 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

I have now reviewed the article - unfortunately, I do not believe it meets GA standards, and that it would require too much work to achieve this for me to put the nomination on hold. I hope you are not discouraged; I have left some ideas for improvement in the review. Please let me know if you disagree with the conclusion I have reached. Best wishes,--Midgrid(talk) 17:50, 3 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the review! I agree with many of your points. Feel free to fail the article for now, lots of work to do. Thanks. Lvi56 (talk) 03:46, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Reusing previously published content

edit

Hello. Copyright concerns were raised with the article Inland Feeder at its GA review in January. It was evaluated through the copyright problems board, and it seems very likely that the content is public domain as it comes from official California state documents. (California is one of the few states to make their public records public domain.) We are able to use content from these sources, so it does not constitute a copyright concern; however, Wikipedia's approach to plagiarism requires that verbatim copying or close following be explicitly acknowledged, not just with a citation but with notice of direct copying. I have added attribution to this article here so that it is in compliance. If you have copied or closely paraphrased content from other sources, please make sure that the material is handled in one of the methods described. Thanks. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:30, 7 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Resurrection of Southern California Task Force

edit

After moving from Los Angeles County to Kern County to San Luis Obispo County, I am finally realizing that there is life in California outside of L.A. and San Francisco, where I lived and grew up. Oh, I have also lived in San Diego, San Bernardino, San Joaquin, Yolo and Sacramento counties, and I earned my undergraduate degree in Riverside County. I am trying to breathe life into the Southern California Task Force, and I hope you will join me. Could you visit our list of participants at the other end of this link and update your description of what you are interested in doing for us, assuming that you still want to be in the mix, that is.

In recompense, I will buy you a drink during the Wikipedia Welcome Week I am planning for Morro Bay on the Central Coast in July. Yours sincerely, BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 18:53, 3 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
