Thanks for adding the subdivision of the Laotian provinces, it was something I planned to do for quite some time already but always too busy with other tasks. Do you have any direct sources for these, or is it basically the information from statoids.org? I ask because for Xaisomboun there was apparently a change, two districts might have been reassigned to Vientiane province. But it is very hard to find good English sources on Laotian topics. See also Talk:Xaisomboun. andy 20:18, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, your help is definitely welcome and appreciated. I just hoped you'd have more information, Laos is still a widely covered topic here, due to lack of interest of editors here, lack of Laotians with Internet access and English knowledge, but also due to lack of English information sources about it. Anyway, keep on editing... andy 22:12, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, John! I am sorry, but I had to revert your change to administrative divisions of Perm Krai again. The krai is not divided into "former Perm Oblast" and "former KPAO" as your edit leads to believe; rather, it is a single entity which includes Komi-Permyak Okrug (which itself is a transitionary unit). However, I can see that the current layout could use some improvement. If you want to help, modelling the list after administrative divisions of Adygea would be a lot more useful (and consistent). Let me know if you have any questions and thank you for your interest.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 14:44, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dude, I appreciate that and I respect it. But for those who understand Russian subdivision classifications, is the "rural settlement" or "rural locality" the same level as the "selsovet" or is it below the selsovet? I just want to be sure of it, just in case. Reply if necessarily possible. Johnluisocasio 13:09, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I realize we keep responding to one other in one year increments, but, assuming you are still interested, I am going to answer this question (because I happened to notice it today completely by accident).

The way the terminology used in the English Wikipedia is now established, the term "rural settlement" refers to a type of municipal formation, while "rural locality" refers to a type of an inhabited locality. Rural settlements are municipal units which, more often than not, correspond to selsoviets (which are administrative-territorial units) one to one, while rural localities are populated places of rural type (i.e., villages, selos, auls, and such). On some (mostly older) pages, however, these two meanings are mixed up. Hope this helps!—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 19:03, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I see your point. But could you make a diagram that explains each territorial unit by level? jlog3000 (talk) 15:20, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid that with my graphics skills the result is going to be quite ghastly, although if anyone is willing to make such a diagram, I'll be more than willing to help with the definitions, hierarchy, and explanations (although the bulk of information is already available in articles such as subdivisions of Russia, federal subjects of Russia, and types of inhabited localities in Russia).—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 15:50, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No wonder in some federal subjects that the average is like 1.2 rural localities (inhabited and uninhabited) per selsovet. How come? jlog3000 (talk) 16:38, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A selsoviet is supposed to be a fairly compact unit. If there are quite a few villages located in the vicinity of one another, then the selsoviet may include many of them (minding the population caps, though). If villages are separated by large distances (as is the case in Siberia and in the Russian Far East), then a selsoviet is usually organized around just one village (minding the population caps again). Does this answer your question?—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 18:19, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can't argue with that, but just to be sure, can you post an example of a selsoviet with some rural localities? And how come most cities/towns correspond in districts and selsoviets while a few correspond "independently" by other subdivisions' jurisdictions? jlog3000 (talk) 12:14, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ashevskaya Volost in Pskov Oblast, for example, includes 36 rural localities (a volost in Pskov Oblast is the same as a selsoviet in some other federal subjects). As for you second question, there are two types of cities/town in Russia. Larger ones tend to be in direct jurisdiction of a federal subject (such as Pskov and Velikiye Luki in Pskov Oblast). While they sometimes serve as administrative centers of the districts (Velikiye Luki, for example, is the administrative center of Velikoluksky District), administravely they are never a part of them. Smaller towns are normally subordinated to the districts directly (Sebezh, for example). In other words, if you look at the administrative divisions of any given federal subject (ignoring closed cities as to not overcomplicate the example), the first level is districts and the cities/towns under jurisdiction of the federal subject, and the second level is, for districts, selsoviets, towns under jurisdiction of the districts, and sometimes urban-type settlements. The second level for the cities/towns under jurisdiction of the federal subject is city districts and occasionally selsoviets which are under the city/town's jurisdiction (but are not a part of it). I haven't just confused you even more, have I? :)—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:06, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Any maps of some federal subjects with all the subdivisions within it? jlog3000 (talk) 14:03, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's one of Moscow Oblast. Note, however, that it is the map of municipal, not administrative divisions (Moscow Oblast no longer has selsoviets). Most (although not all) of the municipal divisions correspond to administrative divisions 1:1, and municipal rural settlements mostly correspond to the old selsoviets.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 15:17, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, Ëzhiki. To continue our talk, but in a different section, I found some links that are now defunct:

The Census site may be down every now and then, but I was able to follow these links just now without a problem. Perhaps you tried the links during the downtime? The Consultant site (at least its main database portion, to which the link above leads) only works in IE, so you wouldn't see the text if you tried accessing it with any other browser.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 14:50, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I've changed the Constitution link to a more static text on the Consultant site; should work in all browsers now. As for the Census links, come to think of it, they look as if they were done with ActiveX, so it is probably an IE thing as well. There should be a link to an Excel version (which is still restrictive); I'll see if I can dig it up.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 14:56, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article List of mergers in Miyagi Prefecture, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Thanks for splitting out the merger histories from all the prefecture articles. I created Category:Lists of mergers in Japan in order to keep them all together. I also made a page for Tokyo, and am getting ready to do the same for Hokkaidō's subprefectures. At this point, List of mergers and dissolutions of municipalities in Japan is almost redundant to the category, except for the external links that point to more info in each section. Those should probably be verified, and moved to the new pages as references. I'll start on that, if you don't beat me to it. Thanks again. Neier (talk) 10:48, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

With due respect to all the activities to improve all merger related articles, I would like to ask for your opinion as better experienced/educated contributor than myself, about the word choices of the Japanese municipality mergers. I found Municipal mergers and dissolutions in Japan and judged "merge" is the preferred word usage than "amalgamate". so I edited Niigata (city) Merger subsection according to this standpoint. that undid most of the immediate previous edits that harmonized "merge" usage to "amalgamate". in my humble opinion, "amalgamate" is just a bit over dramatized nuance compared to the plain "merge" thus the latter is preferable.

of course I have not studied all other references in other articles, of primarily prefectures, cities and towns of japan, so I would accept if the vast majority of the usages prefer "amalgamate", but just wanted to have someone better knowledge on this topic in Wiki editing context to see if there is any standards that I missed.

Hi - I'm wondering why you changed all the "Senboku" references to "Semboku". Although the town of Semboku may be using the "m" instead of the "n" on their website (a fact I find surprising and I think that actually is a mistake on their website), the Senboku Region (Senboku-gun) has not changed. I am in Misato-cho right now and all the road signs here that mention either the town or the area all use "Senboku". I plan on double-checking at the Misato-cho town hall this week, but I was wondering where you got this information. Thanks! BWH76 (talk) 10:59, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed you've replaced several {{defaultsort}} tags with macronned versions, like this edit. In order for the sorting mechanism to work properly, you should not ever include macrons in the defaultsort. The changes you've made are likely a result of a search/replace that has gone unchecked, but, if possible I think it would be good if you could fix the articles so the sorting is correct again.

Hello! I see that you've been creating a bunch of disambiguation pages and redirects, which are great. One thing I wanted to mention, though, is that once you've got one disambiguation page created (say Buffalo Bulls basketball), there's no need to create more disambiguation pages for the same subject. On the alternate titles (SUNY-Buffalo Bulls basketball for example), just redirect them to the disambiguation page that you created. That way everyone looking for the topic will go to the same disambiguation page, so that if any changes need to be made to that disambiguation page, it only has to be done in one place.

I notice that you've boldfaced the names of a number of college sports teams within the "Athletics" sections of articles on the colleges, e.g. at Peru State College. According to MOS:BOLD, this isn't correct Wikipedia style: the policy states that boldface is acceptable "only for certain usages", which are listed. None of those usages seems to apply to this case; so I'd encourage you to discontinue the practice, and to revert boldfacing that you've already done in inadvertent contravention of WP style.

Could I take exception to a phrase that you've introduced to a number of articles on colleges, in the "Athletics" section? The phrase is, to quote one incidence of it, "Dana College teams, nicknamed athletically as the Vikings..."

First, "Vikings" isn't the team's nickname; it's their actual name. Second, "nicknamed athletically" is a very strange phrase in English. I can run athletically up a flight of stairs, or lift a heavy box of books athletically; but nicknaming something doesn't generally require a great deal of physical exertion and sweating.

I'd suggest an alternative like "Dana College's sports teams, the Vikings..." or "...teams, known as the Vikings,..." Ammodramus (talk) 14:37, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Johnluisocasio. When you want to change the name of a page, please don't simply copy and paste the contents, as you did from UBC Okanagan to University of British Columbia Okanagan. Doing so violates the cc-by-say license that all Wikipedia pages are authored under. Instead, we need to move the page.

Hi. I have reverted a couple of your edits to the article for the following reasons:

• You keep adding the abbreviations for NCAA, ACC, and FBS, when the terms are not used in the rest of the article. We do not need to signify that these entities are known by these abbreviated names unless the names come up again. If you are adding them because you feel people should know that they are known by these names, readers can go to the NCAA and ACC pages linked to in the article.
• You also seem fit to remove links to the various sports that the teams participate in. While you may very be well aware that "Football" means "American football" and the like, there should be links to lead to the proper pages.

Please do not institute these changes again.—Ryulong (琉竜) 15:04, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You don't have to add "National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA)" and "Football Subdivision Level (FBS)" to every article on American colleges that have football teams.

Then where else can I edit changes for the project besides the articles here on Wikipedia? Then I'll stop. jlog3000 (talk) 15:25, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What are you talking about? What project?—Ryulong (琉竜) 15:28, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The one that I'm recently editing the schools'/teams' articles with the basic specific info. And to make everyone happy, undo every other change that I've done of the ACC, Big East, Big Ten and Big 12 schools/teams that I've thought it was necessary (but in your humble opinion, it was not). That way, this argument should be over. I'm tired of being mocked because of something that I thought it was helpful for me to do. End of discussion. It won't happen again. jlog3000 (talk) 15:31, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not mocking you. Is there some sort of language barrier thing going on? All I did was say "This isn't useful" and then asked why you were doing it when you continued to do it. No one gets to unilaterally decide to change the formatting of every article in a topic area without explaining why when asked about it.—Ryulong (琉竜) 15:38, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And I asked you where else can I put my edits, but you avoid that question, with you stating that I should stop those, which I did. And the others have been reverted back before my changes? jlog3000 (talk) 15:41, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You just shouldn't make the changes period. I'm not here to give youan alternative location to enact this project you have in your head.—Ryulong (琉竜) 15:50, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep it up. And I won't make those changes. And as far as I'm concerned, this argument is over. jlog3000 (talk) 15:52, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep what up? What argument? Seriously, I'm having problems understanding you, and it seems you are having the same problems as I am.—Ryulong (琉竜) 15:54, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

See? You're doing it again. That's the argument. I've seen everything you said about not making the changes and stuff, but you kept talking about it after everything I've said about it and stopped. I just wanna end this in peace. jlog3000 (talk) 15:56, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Question: what's the reason for the numerous removals of metric conversion in Japan municipality articles, e.g. 86 kilometres (53 mi) to 86.00 km² in Uruma? ---> Prburley (talk) 01:50, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Only just because I wanna make things fairly balanced. Nothing offensive. jlog3000 (talk) 10:59, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cool. But the metric/customary conversions are standard across all articles, specifically geography-related articles--that's why the convert templates exist. Please read MOS:CONVERSIONS. Thanks. ---> Prburley (talk) 12:28, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Now that you say that, do this favor for me. Try putting that template on ALL of the edits I did on all of Japan's current and defunct municipalities. jlog3000 (talk) 12:44, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is across all current and defunct municipalities? And, did you remove them throughout the entirety of the articles, or just in the opening sentences? ---> Prburley (talk) 13:59, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

On all current and defunct municipalities, yes. BUT, on the sentences that say "As of 2012, the municipality has an estimated population of ??,??? and a population density of ???.?? persons per km². The total area is ??.?? km²" jlog3000 (talk) 14:20, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'd revert/correct them all--the article for Tokyo will give you an idea of how to use the conversion templates of all kinds.

automatically supplies the per km²/per mile that you can use in the body text. ---> Prburley (talk) 14:36, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Also "has" should be in the past tense--I've never seen a population statistic current to the day viewed on the prefectural/municipality site. And if the population given is pre-2013 you could update that by going to the municipality website, it's standard on those websites in Japan. ---> Prburley (talk) 14:36, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh ok. Hope you didn't re-modify the "population density part as "density". jlog3000 (talk) 14:47, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't use "population" + "population density" within the same sentence, it seems like overkill. But I wouldn't modify it either from what's already there. ---> Prburley (talk) 15:17, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Back to reverting/adding back the Convert templates -- how many articles did you modify, and how can they be reverted? ---> Prburley (talk) 15:17, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and thanks for your recent edits on articles of some of Macedonia's municipalities. I was just wondering where you had discovered that Lozovo Municipality and Sveti Nikole Municipality are in the Eastern Statistical Region and not Vardar. This is contradictory to what I've seen thus far. Regards. --Local hero ^talk 01:13, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and you're welcome. And I'm trying my hardest to edit at almost every current municipality (except those that existed between 1996 and 2003 or 2004). About the Lozovo and Sveti Nikole municipality articles, I knew that they were part of the Eastern Macedonia statistical region and not within the Vardar statistical region. Then, I got a bit confused about that. So I'll try to revert those back to its rightful place. jlog3000 (talk) 11:05, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
