As "someone" used to say: "Abandon Bob Hope, all ye who enter here".

Hello RadioKAOS! First, thank you for all the contributions you've made to the First National Bank Alaska article. We've enjoyed seeing it become more robust as those with an interest in Alaska businesses and history add information. We see that you've added a banner suggesting that the article include more secondary and/or tertiary sources. Forgive us the question, as we are not experts on this platform, but do you have any specific suggestions on how we might help to improve the article? Without editing it ourselves, obviously! We've discussed asking employees and customers to contribute their knowledge and experience with FNB, with an emphasis that their additions avoid promotional commentary. Would that be advisable? Thanks in advance for your input on this! Fnbalaska (talk) 20:53, 5 November 2018 (UTC)fnbalaska[reply]

I noticed that last month Ben Stevens or someone working on his behalf removed all material referencing him from the AK corruption probe. I restored it, and updated the lead section and table (i.e., Tom Anderson is finished serving his time). I noticed that you have previously edited the page. If you have the time, could you review my edits for accuracy? You're very familiar with the subject. I'd appreciate it. Activist (talk) 05:45, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey RadioKAOS; I'm dropping you this note because you've used the article feedback tool in the last month or so. On Thursday and Friday the tool will be down for a major deployment; it should be up by Saturday, failing anything going wrong, and by Monday if something does :). Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 21:57, 13 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

First off, I agree with tagging the section as incomplete. While I don't do it anymore, for years I watched many county articles nationwide, and as such I've often seen people add non-CDPs to CDP sections, having misunderstood what a CDP is. For this reason, we really really need to have an article on a community (or a citation to the Census Bureau or the GNIS) before putting it into a CDP section on a county or borough article. I definitely wouldn't object to a restoration with citation! I don't think that 1980 or 1990 CDPs have been suppressed; it's simply that we don't have information easily available for them, and most people aren't going to go digging for information to write about them. Meanwhile, lots of people have been writing about the new 2010 CDPs; presumably Alaska's not gotten much attention because...it's Alaska and not many people pay attention to it. Meanwhile, my removal of the Fairbanks neighborhoods was a matter of practicality and standard practise — nationwide, we don't include lists of city neighborhoods in county articles. They definitely deserve to be mentioned, but in the city article or in a piece of prose in the borough article's not-yet-created history section; including places that are neither cities nor unincorporated areas in this section is at variance with what we do nationwide, since Fairbanks neighborhoods are already covered with a link to Fairbanks.

Hey there- I was reading over your post on Nytends talk pager and I am willing to be schooled/taught about Alaska so that I can contribute small town articles etc etc. My main are of interest is of course coal towns in KY and WV and PA and TN and OH, however, Alaska is a fascinating place to me as well. I was in particular interested about your discussion of CDPs......I have alot of fun with those as well as you might imagine. Small places are a fascination of mine, and if you dont believe me, just taker a look at my contributions page and I am sure you will see I am being rather truthful. Hope to hear from you soonCoal town guy (talk) 17:22, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not that you don't have plenty on your plate, but the Susan Butcher article has large chunks that are straight rip-off from Source 1. I added the NYT obit to references, but would like to have a couple other sources as I am lousy at rewrites and pussyfooting around text. If you would care to tackle the rewrite, great, but if not could you point me to another RS? Most of the external links are dead.

BTW good eye on the Soldotna shopping center. Dankarl (talk) 01:02, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fortunately the copyvio material was a recent addition, I reverted and then restored those recent additions that were from other sources (I hope correctly). I need to go on wikibreak but talk-page modification will generate an email if you need clarification. Dankarl (talk) 13:30, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What would be most useful at this point would be if you could somehow get the text of the Talbott article (ref 14) from the News-Miner which seems to have been a main source for the version of the article I reverted to. If we knew what parts of that article were sourced then we would know what we need to beef up. If you have time you could check and insert inline citations (I guessed on some Talbotts), otherwise i will tackle it when I get back. No crisis, the article is as good or better than it was at the beginning of May.

If you need to get in touch, please use the Commons talkpage as it, unlike the one on WP, sends me an email alert on modification. I've done a little more cleanup and added some live links to the article and am now trying to convince myself i really am on wikibreak. Dankarl (talk) 15:06, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote—in order to influence Tom Peterson. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. I presume you acted in good faith, and appreciate your bringing this to the attention of WikiProject Oregon. However, the fact that your notice espoused a particular point of view predisposed to disagree with your opinion. YBG (talk) 04:56, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The above template-generated notice might have seemed to bite a bit. To clarify, your notification was

• completely appropriate in its scale (limited, not spamming), and transparancy (open, not off-wiki);
• a little questionable in the audience (WikiProject Oregon is obviously interested, but could be considered partisan)
• inappropriate only in its message (biased, not neutral).

Thanks for brining it to our attention and please keep on working to make WP a better encyclopedia!!!! YBG (talk) 05:17, 26 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've been trying to tighten up the Alaska political corruption probe page, which needs a lot of work. I've done quite a bit over time and recently. However, my efforts to get irrelevant and apparently libelous materials and harangues off the page have been frustrated by one or two posters (there may be sock puppetry there). You usually have some good suggestions and you've been involved in editing the page for some time. Have you any thoughts about it that might be helpful? Activist (talk) 05:40, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for all your input.

I posted prior text to the BLP Noticeboard last night. Got some good feedback from one editor. I think there's been more but I've just gotten back on line after being off since the wee hours this a.m. so I'll look for that in a minute.

You don't see anything that ties the whole matter into the actual subject of the article because there isn't anything. You're right about Lisa, of course. There was a very tenuous connection between her land deal in Kenai and the Polar Pen investigation through Bob Penney's connection to Ted's "chalet." But the connection was remote. In the case of Duncan and ASEA, there's none, of course. There was actually a connection between Polar Pen and Ketchikan. Frank Prewitt, Weimar and Cornell wanted to build a rent-a-pen on Gravina Island, with the feds pitching in a quarter of a billion to build the necessary bridge and an intertie. It didn't go anywhere because the Borough Assembly knew better and Bill W. and Frank P. turned their attention to where they thought they had better action: In Wrangell, where Robin Taylor was involved, and Whittier, where the mayor, the city administrator (for a "city" of 182 people), and the harbormaster all had their fingers in the pie. I don't think the schemers ever wanted to build in Whittier, where there's no labor force, the tunnel problem, tsunamis, avalanche and probably a potential Superfund problem, but it was the mechanism they were using to get the state to change the law to favor their various schemes. If they were able to do that, they could have built anywhere. Knowles wasn't going for it, as were many legislators who gave it the fish eye. In addition to the above grifters, Jerry Ward, Loren Leman and Eldon Mulder were also looking to score big with Cornell or whomever. Frank M. wasn't enthusiastic about the various Cornell/Prewitt/Weimar schemes that included Sitka, Nome (!), and Mat Su as well as those others. There was some talk about Fairbanks, too, but legislators such as Bud Fate put the kibosh on that notion. Uncle Ted got the dough, almost, for the Gravina bridge, but Tom Coburn put a stop to it.

I thought that Frank M. tanked the Bank of the North, only. Were there other banks involved? Lindauer and Obermeyer posting on Wikipedia? Now there's a scary thought! Activist (talk) 05:54, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I went back and looked at what I had remembered about the connection between Lisa Murkowski and Bob Penney and Stevens' Girdwood "chalet." I was wrong. It was not Bob Penney who was involved in the note about the expansion of the Stevens home, it was Bob Persons. Sorry about that. Activist (talk) 21:21, 30 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I guess I can go along with your edit to the Hanford, California article but I would suspect that Sean Parnell is little known outside of Alaska so that the oircumstances of his succession to Sarah Palin would seem to be of interest in my opinion.

I was reading the page for Susan Lindauer, as her name came up in a search I did. It's an OK article, though I wasn't sure what to do with an ADN link for an article behind a paywall. I did insert the reporter's name and edited the URL. Then I hit on the link to her dad's page. I couldn't hardly believe it. There's almost nothing in there about his 1990 "campaign" for governor, when he stepped aside for Wally, very late in the game. There's only the briefest mention of his 1998 race for governor, nothing about Tony or Robin or Jerry (who also stepped aside, but for Coghill in 1990, only to join him again). I think that the page has been well scrubbed.

Weird.

Hi. Please do not add unsourced material to articles, as you did with this edit to Sgt. Slaughter. Material in articles, especially that which goes to a subject's notability, must be accompanied by citations of secondary sources, which a veteran editor like you should know by now. The WWE's own website is not a secondary source, that's a primary source. In addition, those sources need to be in the article, and not in an edit summary. "The sky is blue" does not.

Good timing with the oogruk post. I'd just come across two Alaskan rivers that I was curious about. Is Anikovik River derived from anak (excrement) as is Anaktuvuk Pass? The other is Itkillik River. Would the use of Itkillik be derogatory or just a simple statement? Just noticed that could be spelt "itqiliq" in other dialects. One other thing. Do you know what the name would be for fermented seal fliipers? CBWeather, Talk, Seal meat for supper? 18:10, 18 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

My knowledge of Inupiaq is rather limited, but place names are often portmanteau words. I believe the ending "vik" or "vuk" refers to a place or direction. Ukpiaġvik is the place (Barrow) to hunt snowy owls. Kaktovik (on Barter Island) is the place of seine fishing. Anaktuvuk is the place of caribou droppings, and "anak" (prounounced "uhn-uck") refers to any excrement, the "tu" is from "tuttu" (caribou). I don't know what "anik" means; it might mean sister or brother. The name for fermented seal flippers is "utruk," I think. There are different dialects in Alaska, mostly divided by the North Slope and Kobuk river. Anaktuvuk is where the mountain Inupiat live. I was surprised to hear the difference in the pronunciation of word for the Kivgik festival, for instance, with the North Slope dialect compared to those coming from Kivilina. I think that generally the people from the northern tip of Greenland southwest to Unalakleet can understand each other more easily than Spanish speakers can understand Portuguese. Activist (talk) 21:00, 16 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I should have remembered that anik means a "woman's brother", as it is used here also at the Inuktitut Living Dictionary. Can't link directly to the word. That shows it used in Siglitun, Labrador and Inuinnaqtun. Itqiliq means Cree/Dene or Indian (First Nations) but I don't think I have ever heard it used in any way other than an insult. It's in both the links as well. The dictionary gives several spellings for caribou, tuttu, tuttuk, tuttuq and the most common, tuktu. Most Inuinnaqtun speakers (Cambridge Bay, Kugluktuk, Ulukhaktok) will have no difficulty in understanding other dialects to the west but will say that they can't understand people further east. Sometimes you will hear people from one community complain that the other two communities don't speak Inuinnaqtun correctly. On the other hand my brother-in-law (Ulukhaktok) had no difficulty in picking up the dialect from Taloyoak. CBWeather, Talk, Seal meat for supper? 22:09, 16 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I was trying to remember the name of the bag lady/creature from another planet who ran for US Senator and/or Governor in the late '90s. Was it Sylvia Sullivan? She may have been the first statewide candidate in Alaska to run her campaign from a shopping cart. I remember her on Ratnet, I think, being interviewed wearing a beret that was covered with some reflecting attachments. Every time she moved, they flashed from the camera lights. Either that, or she was getting signals through the fillings in her teeth and interference from them in the ether was causing those sparks. Then again, she may have been a plant to make Theresa Obermeyer look more "normal." Curious, I Googled her name and found this:

The last time I heard of anything like this happening, it was to the 1998 Alaska Independence Party (AIP) gubernatorial candidate, Sylvia Sullivan. She won the primary, but the party leadership disavowed her, refused to allow an AIP member to be on the ticket with her as Lt. Governor, and endorsed the GOP candidate instead.From the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner:

Aug. 28, 1998 — The Alaskan Independence Party has abandoned its gubernatorial candidate and endorsed the Republican Party’s ticket, saying its primary winner is neither viable nor "right for Alaska."

Sylvia Sullivan, the AIP candidate, disparaged the desertion Thursday and vowed to remain in the race.

The AIP’s state committee voted late Wednesday to endorse Republican John Lindauer and running mate Jerry Ward, who won Tuesday’s primary and were on the AIP ticket briefly in 1990. They also declined to name a candidate to the party’s vacant lieutenant governor slot on the November ballot. At first, I thought they rejected her because of her notoriously batshit behavior. I know first-hand of what I speak, as I ran into Sylvia online in 2005. She was quite the tinfoil hat wearer and ALLCAPS RANTER (her critics called her PSYLVIA PSULLIVAN). On the other hand, the AIP is a fringe party, and is hardly in a position to complain about oddball behavior.

My revised hypothesis is that Sylvia may have been too liberal for them. Check out her official page and notice all the "helping the little guy" credentials. I'm now more enamored of this idea, as the AIP is associated with the ultra-right Constitution Party, the direct descendant of George Wallace's American Independent Party.

Read more at ONTD Political: http://ontd-political.livejournal.com/6398447.html#ixzz381s49eWo

Still, she did get 4,000+ votes, I'm guessing from Todd Palin and other loopy Lou's who neglected to abide by cues to exit stage right. Despite the AIP endorsement, the Lindauer/Ward ticket got less votes than Robin Taylor, a future unindicted member of the CBC, in my estimation. Please feel free to erase these comments. Activist (talk) 17:25, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I certainly did confuse the two. I had remembered that "Sylvia" was a nutcase who ran for statewide office, and I thought she was from Fairbanks, but when I read about Sylvia Sullivan from Valdez, I thought I'd just misremembered her home town. Who would have guessed that two different Sylvias fit that rare description and political history? Activist (talk) 06:48, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there,

I wrestled with the newly titled Alaska Dispatch News article (redirect from the ADN article).

You're right about his name, but this Lisa Demer story helps avoid using primary sources to confirm that: http://www.adn.com/article/20140621/candidate-profile-treadwells-underdog-run-us-senate-draws-40-years-alaska-work Activist (talk) 21:46, 11 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What bugs me about the AGF response is that most editors who seem to have better sense still accept that defense when the person making the anti-candidate or promotional edits claims to be NPOV. This is despite the fact that application of the "duck test" leads one with a high degree of confidence to assess them as paid p.r.stooges, working off a client list.

Hello, RadioKAOS. You have new messages at Roberticus's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

I see you have {{User:FMacks/Not admin}} on your userpage. FMacks (no relation to me as far as I know) is an indef-blocked sock, and that template of his also has some intrinsic mistakes in it (mis-categorizes pages). It looks like {{User wikipedia/Non-Administrator}} is an equivalent. Could you replace your use (or let me know what other/different features you need) so I can scrap that broken one? DMacks (talk) 07:57, 26 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have noticed you have changed my edit on the Alaska page. As you have pointed out, Byron Mallott was elected on Bill Walker's unity ticket. If you are not aware, a unity ticket is where two candidates from two different parties run together as running mantes. Mallott managed to secure the Democratic party's nomination for Governor. He chose, however, to merge his campaign with Walker and be his running mate. You stated that Bill Walker indentifies himself as a Republican, but he left the GOP to run for governor as an independant. You were correct in stating that Mallott is a known Democrat. However, states can have governors and lt. governors of different political parties. Walker and Mallott are no different. I would like to reference the List of current United States lieutenant governors page to you. There is are two maps on this page that have Alaska in blue, showing that Mallott is represented as a Democrat. Write back if you have any more questions. I would prefer not to get into an edit war.

I was looking at the page and checked the history. This is something I don't understand. There's an entry as if in an infobox, but it doesn't visibly show in the article. It indicates that Jake died in Austin, TX, two years ago. I'm not sure how he'd feel about that. The Mark Twain quote comes to mind. Activist (talk) 15:14, 11 February 2015 (UTC) Jake is very much alive, and "Patrice" is actually spelled correctly. She is otherwise known as "Sissy" Parker, married to Bill Parker. As usual, you do great work and thanks much. Activist (talk) 10:08, 12 February 2015 (UTC) Also checking out the top of your page and noticed the "baited breath." Found this: "The correct spelling is actually bated breath but it’s so common these days to see it written as baited breath that there’s every chance that it will soon become the usual form, to the disgust of conservative speakers and the confusion of dictionary writers. Examples in newspapers and magazines are legion; this one appeared in the Daily Mirror on 12 April 2003: “She hasn’t responded yet but Michael is waiting with baited breath”." I also wondered about "the town you've never heard of with three people," and thought it might be Chicken, which I've transversed en route to Eagle. Wikipedia says census 2010 was 7 people.[reply]

Hi-I started an article on a former Alaska legislator Bob Bettisworth who died recently. You may want to look at it. Many thanks-RFD (talk) 12:51, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am back-the Governor of Alaska Bill Walker ordered the flags in Alaska to lower at half mast. According to the press release Bettisworth in the Alaska Legislature in 1957-1958 and 1981-1985. I checked the 100 years Alaska Legislature website and Bob Bettisworth served in the legislature from 1979-1984 which his obituary also stated. Governor Bill Walker's press release was wrong regarding the years Bob Bettisworth served in the Alaska Legislature. Many thanks-RFD (talk) 14:33, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, List of people from Canton, Ohio. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:People_from_Canton,_Ohio. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:People_from_Canton,_Ohio – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Drjamesphillips (talk) 00:59, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your objection to the PROD, though the reasons were valid, was I feel a bit too harsh in the wording, and seems to have hurt and discouraged Drjamesphillips.

Hi, again. I was editing some AK politicians pages and was trying to sort out Senate Districts. I found Hollis French's article to be in need of a great deal of work and cleaned it up as best I could, being a bit tight for time. I found that Ellis, French and Gardner were all listed simultaneously as minority leader. Then I went to Johnny Ellis' article and found that an editor had inserted his birth name as "Dennis William Egan." I expect the editor was rushing and on 23 March inserted that info. I went to his or her contribution page, and found that maybe 3,000 edits had been made subsequently, almost all of them regarding elected politicians from around the world or actors on the world stage (i.e. Victoria Nuland). A few of those edits followed yours that you made to Andy Josephson's article. I wonder if you could take a look at the edits made by him or her to see if they're correct? I had changed Johnny's supposed birth name to Johnny Ellis, but I'll go back and remove that rather than research it to make sure that's correct. Certainly, he's not Bill Egan's son with the same name by another mother. Thanks once again for all your great Alaskana work. Activist (talk) 07:54, 30 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you've been quiet so long I was quite surprised to get this much of a response. I figured you were probably busy as hell or burned out. Other than getting one, how does the PFD affect your life? I notice it's over $2,000 once again. Thanks for getting back to me. As usual, you're very helpful. I couldn't imagine how all that crap about French stayed on his (or for anyone's) article for so long... I was just appalled when I read it. I left the business about him claiming to be a marine, because I had no knowledge of the matter at all. I didn't know about the tenure issue. I knew that Johnny had served for quite some time, in the House before the Senate. I was surprised his article was so scanty. I also was aware that Lyman had served for a long time, but didn't recall how long. I knew of Hohman only by rep and through mutual (now long dead) friends, who liked him a lot and were distressed by his demise. When I started poking around in the AK legislators articles, and saw the succession for Johnny's seat, I was surprised not to see an article for Pat Pourchot, given his long and interesting career. Now Ogan, he was forgettable IMHO. I think a Vic Fischer article would be warranted too, but I'm hardly the one to do it. I wonder if Charles Wolforth edits Wikipedia? I don't know if what you're referring to is my comments on CA-23's talk page, but that's quite a district, which has wandered around central California like Moses in the desert. Keeping track of the incumbents from decades ago seems like a huge waste of time and server space. Activist (talk) 10:04, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

So I recently changed Mallott's party affiliation in Template:Current Alaska statewide political officials to Democratic from Independent. You reverted this edit claiming that sources indicated he was a Democrat. Does this source that indicates he did not change his party registration to "undeclared" in order to run as an Independent suffice? http://www.adn.com/article/20140901/walker-mallott-join-forces-governors-race He is also listed on the Alaska Democratic Party's website (http://www.alaskademocrats.org/elected-officials/) though this he is listed along with Independent Governor Bill Walker.

Hello, I've been trying my best to clean up the article, but it's tough to find good sources. I have some books, but those aren't always specific on years. I'm waiting for the Dave Meltzer bio that should be coming out soon. I've also added a bit about his days in Atlanta. Is there anything you could add?

You have been mislead by Good olfactory's false accusations. The Germany issue is a red herring that has no relevance to Washington, DC. The District of Columbia existed in no way, shape, means or form in 1789. The only reason the Germany categories have some chance of surviving is because there was an idea of Germany before 1871. There was not any idea of Washington DC before 1790, and it was not actually created until after that date. In 1789 no one envisioned it, and actions in Georgetown were not in it. His ideas lead to placing Mosques built in 1789 as in Israel or actions done in the Indus Valley in 1789 as in Pakistan, although the person who invented that name would not be born for nearly a century. He uses one iffy issue, Germany, to try and falsely influence other places where it is 100% clear that there is no workable way to retroactively impose the modern name on the past.John Pack Lambert (talk) 06:25, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnpacklambert:, this is a bit pointless carrying on this debate away from the discussion, but I think it would be helpful if you were more careful about the assumptions you make. User:RadioKAOS made their comments in the discussion before "Germany" was mentioned either by me or by anyone else, so it's impossible that they were misled by the issue at the time the comments were made.

The links added do not link to article on Wikipedia, this therefor means the individuals do not have pages on Wikipedia, and are currently not notable enough to be on wikipedia. If the individual can have their notability established, please go ahead and do so. Otherwise, adding red links is not a useful or helpful addition to Wikipedia. Also only adding those individuals to be linked in selective, and a POV, as it is a judgement call and not a reasoned basis as to why these and not the others being linked.

There is a rule that articles in draft space which have an {{AfC submission}} tag may be deleted if they have not been touched for more than six months. Unfortunately there is no rule for articles in that space without the tag but I think that the same rule should apply. I have put in User:RadioKAOS/stale drafts a list of yours - there may be others where you were not the last person to edit. (In fact having created it, I realise that list is small beer compared to the stuff in your user space.)

Another view is that keeping drafts without submitting could be considered to be using Wikipedia as a free host.

I hasten to say that in two respects you are not as bad as the two worst offenders I have seen: the number of articles is much smaller and you seem willing to discuss matters in a calm manner.

In the lower 48, lots of ordinary things such as marriage licenses, property transfers, restaurant inspections by health departments, etc. are routinely handled by counties. Here in Virginia, all the non-county areas are cities, which are constitutionally required to perform such duties themselves or contract out with adjacent counties to do it, and I suppose the same is true in Baltimore, St. Louis, and Carson City, the other three independent cities nationwide. But what about in unincorporated places in the Unorganized Borough? Say you move to Tok and want to buy a house and get married. Do you have to phone some office in Juneau to get this stuff done? Any references would help to improve the article on the Unorganized Borough. Nyttend (talk) 01:58, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
