1987 Maryland train collision

My mistake, I thought the effects of weed were common knowledge--in any case, I did find a source for the effects it has on you. Blueboy 96 18:49, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good luck with the GNIS mess wherein a certain editor is creating articles on obscure CA communities.

This mess started a while back when this editor/administrator apparently got access to a new book/source (like a new toy). He will overwhelm you and threaten you with Wiki-speak and the letter of the Wiki law as it were. He will call you a dick and get away with it...all the while junking up county templates and the entire encyclopedia with places that never really existed or were a brief flash in the pan (admittedly a few of those deserve mention, if not an article). Sadly, since only his beloved new tomb/source ever refers to many of these obscure "communities" it will be impossible to remove as you will likely never find another source for at least 50% of them. He will back up his claims with the occasional reference to a historical post office, often creating several articles on the same obscure place (many of his new communities are based on variations of the same name, but with a plural, contracted. or misspelled form) that were somehow picked up by GNIS (or another obscure reference) as a catchall. In any case, you will not succeed. He is very determined and well versed in the politics herein. I feel your pain. Just look at the (now) completely overwhelmed beloved Humboldt County template that he junked up. Welcome to the jungle. Norcalal (talk) 19:19, 11 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
