Ah, sorry; I intended to replace it, but couldn't find a good image to replace it with and got distracted from doing so.
Thanks for the approval of DIY for Glass Joe, but I don't know what you mean by Soda Popinski missing information for Punch-Out!! and Nintendo. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 06:25, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Congrats on the continuing and amazing string of DYKs, including the one for Ricketts Glen. You even produce DYKs on your vacation! Finetooth (talk) 17:05, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
Yes, I had seen the discussion - fixed the refs in Ricketts Glen first and was going to comment on the article's talk page. I tried to upload a photo and got the error message too - then tried to use my TUSC account and that failed (it was one of Nicholas T's Hickory Run photos - here - not sure if the license is OK or not). My guess is the bot will be back working soon, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:21, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
Refs are sorted now - thanks for the advice. -- ChrisO (talk) 00:33, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

Dincher, would you mind checking the Jeremy Bamber DYK that I suggested on August 11? The ones before it and after it have been checked, so I'm assuming it must have been missed. I added the source at the time, so it should be fairly easy to confirm, if you have the time. If not, no worries. Cheers, SlimVirgin talk|contribs 10:36, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
Great find - thanks! The file has to be converted to ogv format, which I do not know how to do. I asked at the MediaLab help page before and Penubag did the conversion, but he is not very active now. I will ask there for help. Did you see Red Rock Job Corps Center? I nominated it at DYK. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 15:05, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I wonder if you could help here. I've replied to my reviewer's concerns within hours, but she is taking days to respond to me. Yesterday, I think I satisfied her latest concerns. Could you help this nomination along? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 12:43, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Hullo Dincher. As some good late suggestions have come in, I'd appreciate you taking a quick look at the Aug. 18 nomination you approved for Undershaw, built for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. As article creator and nominator, I have incorporated the best suggestions and would like you to examine ALT6 as the final makeover. Thanks for your time on this, I really want to get it right.

Thanks for the congrats on Red Rock - have you been getting many edits on your recent DYKs? It seems like they get fewer edits while they are on the Main Page now than they used to. I got some pictures of Hickory Run yesterday - it is a lovely park with lots of interesting places. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 00:31, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Ha, fat chance! Blessings on you though who help make DYK possible. Congrats, by the way, on becoming an Awesome Wikipedian. I already knew you were, but now it's official. Congrats also on reaching 100 (now 101) DYKs. That's awesome too. Finetooth (talk) 03:30, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

You looked at this at DYK noms, could you look at Scouter's Training Award at DYK too? It's very similar and someone has a different view. — Rlevse • Talk • 22:47, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

I saw it on Flickr, went to the article to see how the one we had looking the same direction compared, and found you'd already swapped it out. That is some fats work, thanks, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 04:04, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi! Many thanks for the barnstar. On a recent visit to my hometown, I amused myself by roaming around taking photos. I took some in Erie County, also. I have some from Indiana (Pa.) and Mercer that I haven't yet uploaded. Some of these little burgs aren't particularly photogenic -- for instance, there is no way to make Wesleyville or Harrison City, Pa., look beautiful. On the other hand, Mercer and Indiana gave me more to work with in terms of quaintness. Canadian2006 (talk) 02:22, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
Can you take a look at Articles created/expanded on September 3 to see if this above article might qualify for a DYK. Apparently the previoulsy approved ALT1 is no longer approved. Perhaps ALT3 or ALT4 or ALT5 is better suited. Thanks.-Doug Coldwell talk 17:54, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
I approved hook 7. It's not the most interesting hook, but it is certainly without question. Dincher (talk) 23:45, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

How about DYK... that Okmulgee State Park (pictured) in Oklahoma is one of only two places in the world where the fossil coral Gymnophyllum wardi is found? I like the image and would try it in the DYK hook. There is a journal article on the coral here.
I deleted two things from Joepa's article. Thanks for the heads up. Got some more Leonard Harrison pix today. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 01:45, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
