Glad to help. Only admins and bureaucrats can delete stuff on Wikipedia as far as I know. The ability to delete just the text and leave the IP address and the edit summary is new (came in with the recent changes). Did you get my emails? Ruhrfisch ><>°° 20:48, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

I got Tomasak's 2008 biography of Colonel R. Bruce Ricketts and as a result have added about 4 kB of prose to the Clemuel Ricketts Mansion article - dif. I am asking the FAC and PR reviewers to please take a second look at the Clemuel Ricketts Mansion article and make sure it still reads smoothly and clearly. If you find problems, please raise them on the article's talk page. Thanks in advance, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 04:28, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

The Chetco (tribe) article was from a FAC review - it used to be that Chetco was a redirect to the Tolowa tribe article, but they are different so I wrote a start class article. I always Arizona didn't have any Pacific beaches ;-) Ruhrfisch ><>°° 22:12, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading those - the one titled Warmth on Flickr did not upload for some reason, so I just spent an hour (and made several duplicate uploads under wrong file names that are already deleted on Commons) getting it fixed. It is now at File:Quehanna Wild Area Warmth.jpg and in the article. Off to Bruce. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 03:11, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Ricketts Glen State Park is 10 kB and Bruce is now 42 kB, so we are at 4.2-fold expansion. I am done with History and Geology, and have added pictures (I want to get one of the Lake Leigh dam with the breach in it, for now I have the image of the dry Lake Leigh bed in as a place holder). I also added the image map, but it does not yet have the right coordinates as links for the labels.
I figure expanding the lead will add 2 to 3 kB and guess that I may be able to add 2 or 3 more kB in the remaining sections, which would get us to 4.6 to 4.8 fold expansion, which I assume will be enough for DYK. I am guessing I can do the merge of Bruce with the RGSP article tomorrow (Friday) to start the DYK clock, and that it would also be able to be nominated for peer review the same day (though the refs need some work and I think it is overlinked).
What do you think of the pictures? How about the big map placement? Sorry this has taken so long, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 19:15, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
(out) Thanks, it looks good, but agree that it is a bit general. There is some more specific info on deer in the Lake Ganoga article. I will add some links on the talk page, then will upload some new pix. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:18, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

(out) I just checked all the photos - none are fair use and all seem to have good licenses (most are from me or other Wikipedia editors). I updated the fawn photo so it had a template. I think we'll be OK. I had thought of adding an image of the Colonel, but was worried that someone would say it was fair use and decorative only. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 23:51, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

I was able to add the year of the park's establishment. I would like to add something about the flora / fauna (there is a photo of a trillium in the park on Flickr that I believe can be used here). Niagara Don't give up the ship 02:04, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
I see you removed my addition of Coxey to the Danville residents...heck, you removed the residents section as well. My thanks to you once again for your editing work, with the emphasis on you having the courtesy to take the time to leave me a message that you did it. However, I politely ask you, is there a way that I can adjust the addition it so that it meets your standards? I feel that it would add to the page. Jlaucker (talk) 04:20, 30 July 2010 (UTC)jlaucker
