| Your contributions at NYPT are always appreciated. Without your edits, a lot of the LIRR station articles would not exist. Your images of the subway and LIRR are also very helpful for readers who want to understand the article. Please don't let a couple of acrimonious move requests bring you down. There are still plenty of people on this WikiProject who are grateful for what you do. epicgenius (talk) 20:06, 1 May 2018 (UTC) |
- @DanTD: Please don't scale back your work on the project because of the page naming changes. Your work is necessary for the project to succeed. I beg you to reconsider your decision.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 09:49, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
I have created a short article on a planned station in East Yaphank, which will replace the Yaphank station. I just wanted to let you know, and I would appreciate help on the articles. Perhaps you know how long the town has wanted the station moved. Thanks, and stay well.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 22:28, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 7
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Business routes of Interstate 94, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Little Missouri River (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

June 2018 NRHP noms from Long Island
June 2018 nominations
Three this time:
- Amagansett U.S. Life-Saving and Coast Guard Station, 160 Atlantic Ave., Amagansett. 1902 wooden building that's an excellent example of how those stations were built.
- Pine Hollow Cemetery, Pine Hollow Road, Oyster Bay. Longtime final resting place for many members of nearby African American community that's existed since late 18th century.
- Wardenclyffe Laboratory, 56 NY 25A, Shoreham. Nikola Tesla's lab, in some disrepair. I bet the state's thinking of it as an NHL. Daniel Case (talk) 17:39, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- I took five images of Wardenclyffe Labs in 2015. User:Americasroof had a pic of the Coast Guard station in Amagansett. The Pine Hollow Cemetery will require adding a trip along New York State Route 106 to my agenda. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 17:53, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
Editing List of county roads in Lafayette County, Florida
I was thinking about editing the article List of county roads in Lafayette County, Florida to match the structure of List of county roads in Lee County, Florida. Is that allowed, or should it be kept in its original format? I was just going to use Template:Infobox road small with very, very brief descriptions and junction lists. Thanks!
God bless, Matthewshill (talk) 23:59, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- Both seem to be acceptable. The version from the Lee County list has more details, and if the knowledge is available, adding those details should be encouraged. I've seen some expanded lists that were unjustly eliminated recently. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 00:59, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
