WikiProject Proposal for the University of Georgia

Hello all,

I have started a proposal for a WikiProject for the University of Georgia. The UGA article and all related pages including Georgia Bulldogs is in need of much improvement and expansion. If you're interested in joining, please add your name to the supporter list. The University of Florida started it's own WikiProject and that gave me the idea. There is much work to be done! Your support and attention is much needed and much appreciated!

Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments. DMB112 (talk) 18:15, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

Unhelpful editing at DeKalb County School District

I notice this user does repeated unhelpful editing by changing "school district" to "school system" even if some links break, because he/she considers the name change illegitimate WhisperToMe (talk) 05:00, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

Lakeside, Georgia

There's an article about Lakeside, Georgia that no one has bothered. Anyone able to expand it?? Georgia guy (talk) 23:18, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Am I reading it right, it's a city that doesn't exist on any level with only a single source of questionable reliability giving any coverage to a group of people who would like it to be a city? I don't see that there's really anything to expand, and it honestly looks like a case of WP:TOOSOON. - Sudo Ghost 23:31, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Well then, please expand it by finding additional sources to look up information. Georgia guy (talk) 23:42, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

I looked before I commented, and I'm honestly not seeing any evidence that this article's subject exists at all, even as an proposition of any real substance. - Sudo Ghost 23:47, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

I added a source that is very reliable. Georgia guy (talk) 23:53, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

A wordpress blog is not a reliable source, and all that verifies is that someone would like the city to exist, not that it has any chance of doing so or that the desire to have it become a city is notable in any way. - Sudo Ghost 23:56, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

What's the difference between Lakeside and what Brookhaven was until late 2012 (or I should say mid-2012, because it was in the summer when it was made official the Brookhaven was going to become a city)?? Georgia guy (talk) 00:16, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

The biggest difference is that Brookhaven was being discussed by reliable sources before it became a city. Unless reliable third-party sources can show that this proposed city has any notability, I think it would be better to redirect it to the county's article. I don't doubt that there are individuals that want it to become a city, and it may one day become a city, but that desire to create a city doesn't appear to be notable enough to mention it on Wikipedia, especially in a standalone article. - Sudo Ghost 00:26, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Photo request: Casimir Pulaski Monument in Savannah

Can somebody take a photo? Seems to be relatively easy to anyone who is in Savannah. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 15:32, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

Proposed move for the state article

Please see the "Washington and Georgia" section of WP:VPR. I've proposed synchronizing this article's title with Washington (state), either by moving this article to Georgia (state) or by moving the other one to Washington (U.S. state). I don't care which we do, but I think that it would be good for the two to use the same method of disambiguation. Nyttend (talk) 16:12, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Forsyth Park, Savannah, GA - first sentence

Technically Forsyth Park is evenly split between Savannah's Historic District, and the Victorian Historic District. Gwinnett street is the north-south separator, right in the middle where the Confederate monument stands. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.51.195.116 (talk) 18:50, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

Demolished public housing projects in Atlanta

Article:McDaniel-Glenn Homes 41 acres (17 ha), 1000-unit[5] complex in the northwest corner of Mechanicsville, torn down between February and May 2006.[6] Replaced by Columbia at Mechanicsville Station.

The 41 should not be in number form. I want to change it but it has a link to it, should I get rid of the link along with the number? Robert (talk) 00:37, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

No. Go to where the link is (so you know where its suppose to go. Change "41" to "Forty-One" and then relink it back to where ever it was going. 173.200.15.66 (talk) 21:34, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
