[edit] Commercial links
Please be careful about adding commercial links. Wikipedia:External links has a dim view of them. One problem is if we have one such link then many webmasters feel entitled to add their sites as well. In general, we want to add info the encyclopedia rather than direct people elsewhere to find it. Not to worry. Cheers, -Will Beback 05:48, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nice name!
I was delighted to see your edit to List of California ballot propositions 2000-present and immediately thought, That must be someone living in the 310 area code. Thanks for adding info on our local elections! — Reinyday, 08:49, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pasadena City College
Your addition to Pasadena City College left me scratching my head. Are the campus police armed now? Did the survey question ask if they should be? Maybe there's a word missing. -Will Beback 05:16, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- Now it makes sense.[1] Cheers, -Will Beback 05:39, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pasadena City College
Hey, great to see another PCC attendee here at Wikipedia! I was there from 2003 until July of this year, how about you, when did you start?--Folksong 06:51, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] UCLA Taser incident video link
Why did you change the video linked from UCLA Taser incident? They seem to be 2 copies of the same video. Flatscan 01:30, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
- The new link directed to the original video, so I should have been changed. =D Jumping cheese

- I agree that the link should direct to the original video, but I'm not sure that we can determine which is the original or earliest, as YouTube provides posting date, but not time. Threeonezero described his link as the "actual" video, implying that the original link was not "actual" (I inferred "cut" or "altered"), and I was curious about the basis of that claim. I did a quick search for jedifreac (Threeonezero's link) and came up with this LiveJournal post, which has a disclaimer at the top disavowing that jedifreac has any particular knowledge of the incident. jedifreac however appears to be a UCLA student and a CLICC staff member. The video that I saw originally has more Views, Comments, and Favorites, probably due to being posted on digg. Flatscan 04:26, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

- When searching for "ucla taser" and sorting by date, jedifreac's video is earliest 6:53 copy. I fully withdraw my objections to the edit. As a bit of trivia, the version linked at the top of Video and eyewitness accounts currently has 382,631 views. Flatscan 04:32, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orange Line
Why did you move the orange line page from "Orange Line Transitway" to "LACMTA Orange Line"? its technically a transitway and not a rail line so it should follow the naming conventions of the transitways than that of the rail lines. RickyCourtney 22:58, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Threeonezero! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule img[0-9]+\.imageshack\.us\/my.php\?image\=.*\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|svg), is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article.

[edit] Privacy concerns
Hey, I noticed you self=censoring some images in the Metro Rapid article due to "privacy concerns." However, I really don't think that this is necessary. If the owner/driver of the car specifically asks us to remove the photo – great, we'll do it. But otherwise, there's really no need to remove the photos.
