Hey, what's up Godot, I saw your article at User:Portraits on U.S. Bank Notes, looks great. I'm pretty sure you meant to move it into the article space, right? (That move tool is so confusing I'm pretty sure I've done this myself a few times). I can either move it back into your userspace, or if you want I can move it into the article space for you now (or you can). What do you think? (If I don't hear from you in a bit I'll just figure something out). Peace, delldot ∇.

Er, actually I went ahead and moved it to List of people on United States Bank Notes. Let me know what you think! Peace, delldot ∇. 22:12, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

I think this info might be nicer as a table, let me know if you want help organizing it that way. Peace, delldot ∇. 22:30, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

Hey again, I replied to your message on my talk page. Peace, delldot ∇. 22:37, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

Hey, sorry for snooping, I just looked at your contributions to see if you were around at the moment, I left you a reply on my talk page and wasn't sure if you'd seen it. I saw your work in your sandbox, I put colons before each of the categories in your sandbox so that the page links to those cats but is not included in them. (That way user pages don't show up in the article categories). When you move the article to the mainspace, you can take out the colons. Peace, delldot ∇. 00:03, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of The National Currency Foundation

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on The National Currency Foundation, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Cindy(talk to me) 10:10, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Nomination of The National Currency Foundation for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article The National Currency Foundation is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The National Currency Foundation until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Cindy(talk to me) 13:29, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Hey, I replied to your message on my talk page. Peace, Peace, delldot ∇. 19:29, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Godot13/sandbox List of people on United States Bank Notes (retired original)

Just to let you know, I assumed that Godot13/sandbox List of people on United States Bank Notes (retired original), which you created was supposed to be a user subpage of yours, so I've moved it to User:Godot13/sandbox List of people on United States Bank Notes (retired original). Let me know if I was incorrect and we can sort it out. Cheers! "Pepper" @ 21:54, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

If that means that page is sort of inactive that is correct. I am replacing the live content of the active article with a completely reformatted table and wanted to save a version of the original somewhere... Thanks!Godot13 (talk) 22:06, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Kind of... You can pretty much put whatever you want in a user subpage, which in your case is any page which is User:Godot13/xxxxxxxx where the xxxxxxxx is the name of the page. For example, I have a list of articles I've created at User:Pepper/Created and my to do list at User:Pepper/to do, etc. The page that you created, because it didn't have "User:" in front of it, was technically an article. "Pepper" @ 23:57, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Understood, and thank you for fixing that!Godot13 (talk) 00:00, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

Welcome

Hi Godot13,

I saw that you've been hit with a bucnh of messages, but not yet been properly welcomed. I've placed a weclome message at the top of your talk page with some handy links to an editor new to contributing to Wikipedia. They should help answer some of your questions. But if you are still puzzled, please do not hesitate to contact me, or ask for help from other editors. You can place {{Help me}} on your talk page to signal you need assistance, and some random editor will try to respond. I arrived here as I saw you struggling a bit with some questions at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The National Currency Foundation. Cheers, and happy editting! -- Whpq (talk) 19:13, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

The formal welcome is much appreciated! Is it possible to move the National Currency Foundation article to a Godot13 User page so it is preserved for future resubmission when it can meet the notability requirement? I do have a question about editing etiquette: if I'm browsing articles and I come across an image which I know I can replace with an identical image of significantly higher resolution/quality, is it appropriate to do so? For an example, see the most recent edit to Seal of the United States Department of the Treasury. Thanks!Godot13 (talk) 22:19, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

You can request userfication of the article. That can be done by an administrator (I'm not an admin), and you can recommend that in the deletion discussion. Given your desire to work on the article, I will amend my recommendation to userfy at the discussion shortly. You may want to go the route of using Articles for Creation which will have some form of editor review when you beleive that your article is ready to be moved back. As for editing etiquette, I'm a big fan of Wikipedia:Be bold. In the particular case you mention with the image, that is a perfectly fine edit which improves the article with a better quality image. Just be aware that you should not do this with non-free images. But don't worry. Be happy. And above all, be bold in your editting. If you screw up, there's always an older version of the article in the history that can be restored. Cheers! -- Whpq (talk) 23:31, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

I can userfy something for you if you need it, just let me know. delldot ∇. 16:39, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

There is something I don't understand, and had difficulty finding clarification in the Wiki guidelines. A "Keep" was applied to the AFD discussion. Does this mean that the discussion is not yet over, or someone is voting to retain the article? If the "Keep" was applied to the article for the duration of the AFD discussion, can I remove it to facilitate userfy (in the case where it is my article, not in general)? Thanks.Godot13 (talk) 20:49, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Are you referring to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The National Currency Foundation? I see no "keep" being offered in that discussion. You can get more information about AFD discussions at WP:DISCUSSAFD and Wikipedia:Guide to deletion. -- Whpq (talk) 21:01, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

I don't want to cause the text to appear here, but in the first few lines (after the orphan text)in edit view there is something about a "Keep" Perhaps that is part of the AFD and remains hidden for a reason... I'll read the resources you suggested. Thanks.Godot13 (talk) 21:16, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

I think I understand what you are asking about now. Is it this template: {{Old AfD multi|page=The National Currency Foundation|date=26 December 2012|result='''keep'''}}? That is actually a comment imbedded into the AFD template as a convenience for the editor closing the AFD. If the AFD is closed as a "keep", then that template can be cut and paste into the article's talk page to record the result instead of having to type it out by hand and filling in the parameters manually. -- Whpq (talk) 03:01, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The National Currency Foundation

Hey, sorry, I know I told you I would userfy this no problem, but I think I should wait till this discussion is closed. (It will likely happen within a day). I better not close it myself since you and I are friends so I wouldn't be objective. I'm sure the closing admin will userfy it for you but if they don't I'll check with them to make sure it's ok then userfy it for you if it's no problem. (I'm sure it won't be). Sorry for the bureaucratic runaround. I'm just being careful not to step on any toes. Peace, delldot ∇. 03:54, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

LOL! No worries. I certainly understand bureaucracy and not stepping on toes. All good...

Banknotes list

Hi Godot13, thanks for your note. I'm more than happy to give you a pre-FLC review. I'm a tiny bit busy right now but I'd hope to get it done in the next two days or so. I'll let you know when I'm done (by the way, it looks good at a cursory glance!). The Rambling Man (talk) 19:31, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

FLC

Hi Godot, I apologize for being so tough on you at the FLC. I looked at your past edits and didn't realize you were fairly new here. I really do appreciate your contributions and hope you will continue working on numismatic articles. Without the notes I do think the list is FL quality, but I hope you understand where I'm coming from. If you read through other lists, the purpose of a list is to concisely show the same information for each member. The notes are just fun facts that don't have to do with banknotes and are better left on the person's biography if someone is interested. I see that you want to be more comprehensive and provide background information, but I feel that for a list where the topic is currency appearances, that should be the focus, not just mentioned as the one thing in common. I would not expect full pictures of all the notes as you mentioned, but perhaps you have some specificinformation about why Congress or the Treasury decided to put that person on a banknote. Good luck and happy editing, Reywas92^Talk 17:06, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for reaching out. I've read some past FLC reviews and have found it pretty interesting to see the conviction some people have. I've collected NBN for almost 20 years, but have only just started getting into the research, history, and academic side of banknotes. This is just the beginning Template:Smile for instructions

Wikiproject

I think you should try to engage the people at Wikipedia:WikiProject Numismatics to see if there's enough life there to help with figuring out the best way we can use your image contributions. Currently some of the pages your sticking pictures into are already probably too cluttered with images per our WP:MOS. The ones that are promoted as featured pictures need to be probably given higher priority and others weeded out. Possibly new pages should be created if they don't already exist for specific series or something. Just a thought. It's also possible that the project is mostly dead and noone will respond. Regardless your images should probably be used more and better then they currently are, specifically now that we're promoting several and likely by the quality many of them as featured pictures. The more good homes we can get for them the more featured pictures we can have. ;-) — raekyt 22:30, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

• Understood. I have tried to be careful not to add new images in places where it would be too cluttered. There are certainly times where I'm tempted to remove existing images (or else replace them with my scans). I don't know what the policy is for creating galleries on the article pages, or if that is frowned on. I have no problem, over the long-term, creating a gallery-style (or heavily illustrated) article for each area within the National Numismatic Collection (i.e., U.S. Banknotes, Fractional, Confederate, etc.). I have something sort of interim set up on commons at [[1]].--Godot13 (talk) 00:48, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

• Generally, if your adding a better image, quality, more EV, more relevant, then an existing image it's uncontroversial to remove it. Thats WP:BOLD, just do it. If people have a problem it goes through the WP:BRD cycle, and a WP:CONSENSUS is reached on the article's talk page. As for image galleries, they're generally found upon, per WP:IG. For articles like United States Note is a very broad article, there are a lot of bills that fit that category. Tables like on Federal Reserve Note or Hawaii overprint note along with getting better higher quality scans of each of these examples, many are quite low quality or poor quality bills. — raekyt 02:32, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Extent of your project

I presume (maybe incorrectly?) that if you have access to the Smithsonian's collection, that it all can be/will be scanned? In that case we could in theory convert say the lists on United States twenty-dollar bill be converted into a table with an image for every issue? That we can compile list pages of every bill, and I presume this may extend as well to coinage? — raekyt 17:59, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

We think alike ;-) I have already scanned all of the U.S. Banknotes (large and small type), and major types in Fractional and Confederate (a complete typeset). See User:Godot13/sandbox4 for a draft of something I'm working on (I randomly chose silver certificates first)... My "area" is paper and between the varieties of Confederate, Fractional, and the collections of Colonial and Continental (not to mention the 150,000+ BEP proof sheets for National Bank Notes), I probably will not get to coinage in my lifetime --Godot13 (talk) 18:41, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

I'll bump up the image size when the list is ready to go live...--Godot13 (talk) 18:43, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

• Shame about the coinage. These are very pretty, and the 3 dollar coin could use some nice images. Thanks for all the work though, it's fantastic. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:47, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

• yea.. but theres >1 million paper currency in the collection. What does it take to be able to get access to digitize these things? I presume they don't just let anyone have access, afterall some of these coins are worth millions each. ;-) — raekyt 12:48, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Need you expertise, format etc etc

Hey there, congrats on the support for the Bank Notes article by the way. I created a neutral stub on a part of Exonumia called coal scrip. At the end of May of this year, I get to go to one of the 2, that right, 2 functioning machines that actually issued coal scrip and create some keepsakes. When you read the coal scrip stub, you will see why I need your help. The deal is, I want to document the entire process behind the actual minting and accumulation of coal scrip. I have all of the artifacts, (EXCEPT the machine of course). The subject matter is historical, and can be documented to far beyond a stub. My challenge, I know exactly JACK SQUAT about properly formatting a numisastic(sp) article. ANY help you could provide AFTER I get pics of the machine and its use, would be GREATLY appreciated.Coal town guy (talk) 02:49, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

• I'm fairly new and still learning too... I'm happy to help out. I'll be back home on Sunday and will look at the stub you started and see where we can go from there...Take lots of pictures of the coal script machine (up close details of all the working parts, any tags or plates with names, dates, or numbers. I apologize if this is all redundant-- Set your camera (if digital) to the largest file size so you capture the most amount of detail. Keep lighting in mind: avoid taking pictures when the light source is in the camera's view (or directly behind the object your shooting). The more images of different part of the machine and your experience there, the more options for writing it up--Godot13 (talk) 18:03, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Goof faith edit? [2] Guilty as charged. But seriously, thanks for the warning on the keysort. -- Khazar2 (talk) 14:08, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

• I think you could use {{hs}}. If I'm not mistaken, AWB avoids templates (and thus you won't have to keep reverting) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:12, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Ooops, my bad ;-) didn't realize the typo until it was too late. The visible part has all the proper punctuation/accents, it's just the hidden key sort gets thrown off. Thanks for having a look. --Godot13 (talk) 14:16, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of List of aircraft accidents and incidents resulting in at least 50 fatalities

The article List of aircraft accidents and incidents resulting in at least 50 fatalities has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A new list appears to be a jargon filled duplication of other lists already on wikipedia

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

• Responses to proposed deletion of this list because it is alleged that it is "a jargon filled duplication of other lists already on wikipedia".
• This list is far more comprehensive in scope and quantity than most other aviation accident and incident lists.
• New information, not contained in any other list, has been added.
• This list has higher sorting functionality than any other I have seen.
• This list has exhaustive references to both internet databases and national aviation authority original accident and incident reports.
• Frankly, I think this deletion notice is absurd.--Godot13 (talk) 16:55, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
