When creating new articles you should put them into categories. All articles are supposed to be categorized....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 14:59, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
- I was just coming to say the same thing. I did a single category for the article at Palco High School but there could likely be more. I also added assessment templates to the talk page which is a good way to notify members of particular projects of new articles. Just FYI. --CNMall41 (talk) 17:47, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

- Yes, you may be right @Animalparty, on the other hand that is the name of the appeal of the original case where he was found guilty of the triple murder. I also prefer the focus on the human being involved who suffered the beatings by police and gross miscarriages of justice rather than a title focused on the name of ine of the legal cases that punished him. FloridaArmy (talk) 20:35, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- I went ahead and moved it to the case, as most mentions of Lyons are in reference to the Supreme Court and/or Thurgood Marshall. We should follow reliable sources when possible, not seek to 'right the great wrongs' of history by granting undue emphasis to people or events. This doesn't mean Lyons the person and the events that made him known can't be described in the article (e.g. in a "background" or "defendant section), but that the broader context should be emphasized. Just as we don't have articles for every minor fictional character in a book, we need not have biographies for every name that appears in a Thurgood Marshall biography. --Animalparty! (talk) 22:05, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
- We'll have to agree to disagree. The murders and trial were extremely notable. The man at the center of it all is veruly notable. The Supreme Court appeal was just one part of it and as you note a footnote in his career. The grislt murders and man accused and convicted are from my perspective the real story. Have you looked for contemporary coverage? FloridaArmy (talk) 22:27, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

Tiffany Zulkosky
You ask "Are there female tribe members serving in the Alaska Legislature outside Alaska? Not being snarky. I might be missing something." Personally, I typically view statements such as that to be a case of grasping at straws to come up with an accolade for someone. Just some general background, Alaska Natives typically don't use the term "tribe" except in a legal sense. This doesn't carry quite the weight it does in other states because SCOTUS decided in Alaska v. Native Village of Venetie Tribal Government that Indian Country is a void concept in Alaska due to the passage of ANCSA. Venetie and neighboring Arctic Village are a special case, as they were established as an IRA reservation sometime around the early 1940s, then chose to accept fee simple title to the reservation's lands rather than participate in the corporation scheme established under ANCSA. That's a little bit of a tangent, but yes, there are tribal organizations, just not quite in the more familiar sense down south. Anyway, there are Native women serving in other state legislatures, which is likely the intent of that particular specificity. Here is one currently serving in the Arizona Senate. My watchlist shows that editors are making a really big deal of Paulette Jordan winning the Democratic nomination for Idaho governor, and she was in the Idaho legislature until leaving to campaign for governor earlier this year. There's a few other states such as New Mexico, Oklahoma and Washington which have strong enough Native constituencies to where it's a pretty good bet that there are others.
My main concern upon seeing this article: there are certain topics in Alaska politics that I try and stay away from because of a possible COI, having been deeply involved in politics behind the scenes during the 1980s and 1990s. Virtually all of the new political biographies created about Alaska politicians the past few years have been persons with ties to a certain political consultant. I've mentioned this elsewhere, but I definitely have a COI as it concerns Chris Birch, a first-term representative who defeated multi-term incumbent Bob Lynn in the primary two years ago and is currently a candidate for Kevin Meyer's seat in the Senate. It makes us appear to be out of touch with reality when Birch's first claim to notability occurred the same year Zulkosky was born, yet no article. There are also other legislators with a more solid basis for notability than Zulkosky who lack articles, apparently for the only reason being that they're white and Republican. So much for NPOV. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 22:38, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for the explanation. I think members of state legislature are automatically, so to speak, notable, so there shouldn't be a problem creating articles on any of them. What is the preferred terminology for Native Americans in Alaska? Indogenous? Native American? Are they not part of tribes? I will have to read and consider that part of your explanation further. Interesting. FloridaArmy (talk) 22:45, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
- The problem I outline with Chris Birch is that he's been my friend for 30+ years, and I've stated as much before, so it's obviously suspect were I to create an article. The pattern of many existing articles also shows plenty of COI, though mostly in the form of legislative staff writing about their bosses. Most admins and other editors who scrutinize that sort of thing take one stance when it comes to content covering the for-profit business sector and entirely the opposite stance if it has to do with the government or non-profit sectors. I prefer to stay away from current legislators as much as I can aside from contributing photos, as we're quite lacking in articles on subjects for which a greater variety of sources are available and a greater basis for notability exists. Putting so much weight on current news headlines leads to short-shelf-life-type POV problems; for example, making a whole lot bigger deal out of Zulkosky's predecessor Zach Fansler than he ended up amounting to being. Then you have the countless one-way judgement pipelines (walled gardens) across the encyclopedia where editors will insist that past legislators aren't notable if they are too far dead or retired to go about hiring a social media consultant to throw their name around certain corners of the web today. We have one editor who stated the following last year about Joshua Wright following his death: "...but having read up on his life as described in the obit, he doesn't seem to pass even basic notability guidelines". Yet, an article exists, with the weakest possible sources imaginable, basically another example of us appearing to portray someone as notable for dying. That editor made other excuses but has not acted on the above statement by nominating the article for deletion. Can you say "paper tiger" (or possibly "full of shit", but that runs into WP:AGF/WP:CIVIL territory)? Good, I knew you could. In reality, Wright was arguably far more notable for being the only African-American practicing dentistry in Alaska for nearly two decades than for being an obscure one-term legislator, according to the sources I've read. Try convincing an editor who spends a lot of time scrutinizing what's on the web today but has probably never picked up a book in their entire lifetime of that, however. Rotsa ruck. You can't have "the sum total of human knowledge", as the famous Jimbo quote goes, when such narrow-minded people have all the time in the world to hang out here and push their agendas.
- Back to your question before my head explodes: Alaska Natives are typically referred to as "Native" or "Alaska Native" depending on the context, at least in the bigger cities where many different ethnic groups coexist. There's also "Eskimo" and "Indian", except that the PC crowd is out to eradicate those terms plus others such as "Chief". Usually, they insert "Inuit" in place of "Eskimo", except that in an Alaskan context, "Inuit" typically refers to indigenous peoples of Greenland and far northern Canada. The ones from major ethnic groups will also frequently refer to themselves by those names (e.g. Aleut, Inupiaq, Koyukon, Tlingit, Yupik, etc.). The closest we come to tribes are with non-profit organizations on the local level, which will either use the term "tribe" as part of the organization's name or the term "tribal" to refer to some or all of its functions. There are also tribal courts. As far as I know, these are loosely overseen by the state court system in much the same way that youth courts are. In other words, I don't believe any of them have sovereignty as a court. Tribal courts mostly deal with child welfare cases, which are sealed in state courts, and operate in communities lacking local media outlets, so it's kinda hard to get good information. There was a tribal court conference here last week. I was hoping to stop by mainly to get photos of Joel Bolger and Jahna Lindemuth, but I suppose that I might have learned something about the system as well had I attended. Hope all this helps.

Hello. Thank you for your good work on stemmery. Would you be interested in adding more about the labor history the Lebanon Woolen Mills please?Zigzig20s (talk) 12:57, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
Hello, FloridaArmy. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Battle of Bloody Hills, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
- remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
- save the page
Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Town Sports. Since you had some involvement with the Town Sports redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Dom from Paris (talk) 15:02, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
Deletion discussion about Peleg Chandler
Hello, FloridaArmy,
I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Peleg Chandler should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Peleg Chandler .
If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.
Thanks,

Hi FloridaArmy. When creating pages, would you please:
- Add appropriate WP:CATEGORIES
- Add appropriate WP:WIKIPROJECTS (particularly including {{WP Biography|living=yes}})
- Use citations of some kind rather than WP:BAREURLS
- Use WP:STUBSORT templates where appropriate
Look, you don't have to do this but it's polite to do so, and you should neither need nor expect other editors to regularly clean up after you. Clean up for good faith new editors is enough of a grind. More haste less speed please. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 07:45, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

Your error in relation to Adele Lacy
The reference reads "Futter was married once before, in 1927, to Patricia Elizabeth Murphy, they divorced a few years later." This was before he married Lacy, thus she was his second wife. Deb (talk) 13:24, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- Our entry reads: "She was married twice, first to director Walter Futter and then to movie still photographer Madison S. Lacy." Nothing is said about Walter Futter's previous marriage. You've reinserted your error repeatedly. You also turned one of my articles into a circular redirect. You've also improperly deleted useful redirects I created as G6.
- I'm pretty patient and try to be helpful but you've been exceptionally nasty to me and disruptive. Your improper speedy deletion of my article was overturned unanimously and you were reprimanded. Why are you still stalking me and causing problems? Go help Sitush. He needs it. FloridaArmy (talk) 13:35, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- If you do not want me here, don't talk about me here. I've not looked at the above example but you're making far, far too many mistakes and wasting far too much of other people's time with sloppy editing. - Sitush (talk) 15:08, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- As I've requested you to steer clear you shouldn't be talking about me elsewhere. Stones and glass houses don't you know. And it's funny you say zi make a lot of mistakes, because I tried to help you with yoir but you weren't interested so I moved on. You've done a lot of sloppy work. But different strokes for different folks. Thanks for respecting my request that you stay off my talk page. The mistake noted above was Deb's so I'm glad ee got it fixed. I also fixed some other errors she introduced. FloridaArmy (talk) 15:12, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
