A welcome from Sango123

Hello, SpaceJunkie, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We're glad to have you in our community! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

• If you haven't already, drop by the New user log and tell others a bit about yourself.
• Always sign your posts on talk pages! That way, others will know who left which comments.
• The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
• Simplified Ruleset
• How to edit a page
• Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Manual of Style
• Wikipedia Glossary

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Happy editing!

WP:MNSH

If you;'re interested, we have a project on Minnesota State Highways. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 04:54, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Um... not a very good idea to post ur email online. Um... ya just noticed ur edit. You can do whatever is needed pretty much, the project just started. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 06:19, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

I didn't mean remove {{Minnesota State Highway WikiProject}} from the talk page... just not on the article. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 02:25, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

You don't have to be accepted into a WikiProject.... you can just add yourself. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 05:50, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

I don't think it matters if it's a city per se; a town is fine. The problem is when you have like 20-30 cities which is too much for the infobox (well we've run into that with other states). --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 22:41, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Final state highway naming conventions debate

SpaceJunkie, your participation is welcome in the Wikipedia:State route naming conventions poll. Please give your input as to the process by 23:59 UTC on August 8.

On roads, again

Hello. As another participant in the Minnesota highways project, could you please have a look at this? Once again, we are being told "Minnesota State Highway X" is not a common name, after it was settled in a previous round that it is. Jonathunder 20:12, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Minnesota meetup

A meetup of Wikipedians in Minnesota is proposed: please stop by the discussion page if interested. Jonathunder 04:52, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Minnesota State Highway 371 Business

We at USRD discourage the creation of articles for bannered routes - This article is best merged as a section in Minnesota State Highway 371. the Image can be included on that page as well within the section for the business route.

I also removed the route from the browse sequence. The sequence is for main state routes (including Interstate and US Routes passing through the state) only. master son^{T - C} 19:58, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
