Hello! Why did you completely revert the lead section of University of Southern California? Much of the previous information was outdated or even irrelevant. I changed some of the information to be more comprehensive and to explore graduate programs, research, as well as undergraduate programs. If you felt it was NPOV, why didn't you remove the offending information? As it stands now, this reverted version has some inaccuracies. For example, the Division 1-A of the NCAA is now the FBS. We have to make this a professional article with factual information. So, would you be willing to compromise on these elements? Thank you. Pengkeu (talk) 22:58, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

As the author of one of the only two college football season WP:FAs, I thought I would call your attention to Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/1997 Michigan Wolverines football team/archive1. Feel free to comment.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:25, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
Nice photo of the Kasson School. Is it a panorama?
Speaking of images, I was hoping to ask your advice on something. While watching the Vikings Sunday, I was startled to see what is clearly a photograph I created used in a political attack ad. It does not comply with the GFDL or CC licenses in the use of my work (and needless to say, I am not very happy about it). Jonathunder (talk) 05:10, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi, Bobak, do you have any suggestions for a next date or place for a Minnesota meetup? I was disappointed to miss last Sunday's meetup once a work meeting coincided with the time announced for the meetup. I would be happy to arrange a meetup soon. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 14:16, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Bobak, it's going to be a lot of fun learning from you how to keep improving the articles about Minnesota on Wikipedia. I appreciated your sense of humor and perspective on editing. I hope we'll have another local meetup fairly soon. I appreciate your help in getting the word out and would like to help with the next meetup however I can. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 00:32, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Bobak,
I just realized you are going to have a licensing problem with some of the photos you scanned.
I have created a site on our SHPO Flickr account for our Historic property photos.
Can you FTP me the scans you took of the photos? If so, I can place them under CC-By-SA-2.5.
Email me at joe.hoover at mnhs.org and I can give you an ftp site to upload them too. Myotus (talk) 15:42, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
Fantastic work! I showed it to folks at the office. You might want to differentiate just what region the Headquarters was in the title. It seems like it was the headquarters for the whole Salvation Army instead of just the region. Myotus (talk) 16:08, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
I noticed you were among the listed participants in the College Football WikiProject who are interested in Trojans football. I've been recently cataloging seasons for USC using the "USC Trojans under [coach]" article standard and was wondering if you would be willing to help fill in the rest of the seasons. There are around 55 seasons in need of an article (including some national championship seasons), and four active users on the WikiProject who listed USC as their interest. I figure if we split things up evenly, it shouldn't take too long. If you're interested, we could start doling out seasons and get cracking.
Thanks for your time ― El Cid ∴∵ 01:38, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

How can you seriously call this "repairing vandalism"? As a fellow administrator, I would presume you know what WP:Vandalism really means. Also note that File:Usc football logo.gif is a copyrighted image, and must comply with our non-free content policy. That means that placement on individual season articles is excluded, even if you try to make it look valid by placing a fair-use rationale on the image description page. — Andrwsc (talk · contribs) 23:05, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
