Hi, had a question for you; I was wondering if we might want to move Senator Bilbo to "Theodore G. Bilbo", that's what I see him listed as more often as I was Googling around. - Hephaestos 17:18 May 4, 2003 (UTC)
- Sure, sounds like a good idea. Jpcarver 18:49 May 4, 2003 (UTC)
- After I posted this I began thinking the same thing about James Eastland; if nothing else it's a common enough name that it might need to be disambiguated later without the initial. As far as the other ones, I don't really know enough about them to make a judgment. - Hephaestos 18:58 May 4, 2003 (UTC)
Just a note: the spelling is politician, not politican (probably a typo in your template). --Wik 22:26, Aug 29, 2003 (UTC)
Hey Jpcarver, I noticed that your user page mentions the List of Governors of Mississippi (which you should see if you haven't been there in a while). Also, it seems like you wrote some of the Governor's bios, so you might be able to help with this one. I've been going through and adding a table to connect all the Governors. If you look at Ridgely C. Powers, the original text said that it was Adelbert Ames who resigned, not James L. Alcorn. Look on the talk page to see my reasoning. Since you wrote the original pages (a while back I realize), I would like to hear if you copied it, know it intimately, etc. --Ricky81682 (talk) 09:56, Dec 5, 2004 (UTC)
Why the interest in Mississippi, you ask? Seriously, that's a good question. Frankly, I don't remember. I think I started with some disambugiation page that led to a Mississippi governor, and then saw the nightmare that was the governors' page. After cleaning that mess up [1], I just started to create tables connecting all the governors. I believe the obsession just continued and continued without reason. =) --Ricky81682 (talk) 23:54, Dec 25, 2004 (UTC)
Mississippi primary election, 2007
[edit]Can you please update the page with the results? Thanks!
Hey y'all!
[edit]We're going to be having our first Mississippi meetup next month, and I would love it if you'd like to come out! A few of us will be staying overnight, so if you feel up to it, we could have a meet and greet that night and then breakfast the next morning and talk about Wikipedia and everyone's areas of expertise. Let's show 'em how it's done Southern-style! Mike H. Fierce! 21:30, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
Unreferenced BLPs
[edit]
Hello Jpcarver! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 331 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
- William Allain - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- Robert Hue - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
Thanks!--DASHBot (talk) 07:29, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
The article Jeroen Dijsselbloem has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Eeekster (talk) 03:46, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
Suggestion for WikiProject United States to support WikiProject Mississippi
[edit]It was recently suggested that WikiProject Mississippi might be inactive or semiactive and it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States. I have started a discussion on the projects talk page soliciting the opinions of the members of the project if this project would be interested in being supported by WikiProject United States. Please feel free to comment on your opinions about this suggestion. --Kumioko (talk) 03:14, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 5
[edit]Hi. When you recently edited Rosalba Ciarlini, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Natal, Brazilian and Doctor (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

2019 US Banknote Contest
[edit].png){kind=logo}
|
US Banknote Contest | 
|
|---|---|---|
| November-December 2019 | ||
|
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here | ||
