New userbox for SF residents!
For all you who live in SF, I have just created a userbox for SF residents. Check it out Template:User in San Francisco. Just put {{User in San Francisco}}
Need help changing the Wikidata identifier and Wikipedia article names of the SF Recreation and Park department
I emailed the department after noticing their name gets formatted in a lot of different ways and was told that the official name of the department is "San Francisco Recreation & Park Department". The names of the Wikidata identifier and Wikipedia article for the department are "San Francisco Recreation & Parks Department" (they use Parks instead of Park).
What would be the best way to go about changing this? Spughetti (talk) 20:51, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
- Their website is very inconsistent about "Park" versus "Parks". I would recommend initiating a requested move at Talk:San Francisco Recreation & Parks Department so that others can weigh in. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 21:36, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah I've never seen inconsistency like this before, but my email correspondence with the department confirmed that it's Park, not Parks. Does that mean it's uncontroversial and I can just do the move myself? Spughetti (talk) 23:39, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
- I would still recommend a requested move. Given the inconsistency in public information, basing a move solely on private communication isn't the best idea. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 22:54, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

I'd appreciate any comments, corrections or copy-edits from members of this project. Thank you. 76.14.122.5 (talk) 23:13, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, overall great job finding a lot of references and writing in a neutral style, but is there any reason you can't just expand the History section of San Francisco Department of Public Works? The article about Mohammed Nuru also contains a ton of overlapping info. It's not really clear that a separate article is merited. Steven Walling • talk 04:40, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for taking a look and for your comment. I had previously added a lot of the info to the Nuru article. My vague plan is to remove a most of that and link to this article if it is accepted. I hadn't thought of expanding the DPW article. Let's see what others think. 76.14.122.5 (talk) 18:57, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
