Other site
Admin: I run http://wikipensacola.com. As I look at some of the stuff you are doing, it seems silly to duplicate one another's efforts. There are a few issues I have with your site, though. When I first visited this site you were using a restrictive license, but it appears that you have migrated to GFDL. Is this the case for all content? Secondly, why do you use that weird SWF Flash thing to render article titles? Just to use that font? :-) Wikipens 22:28, 13 March 2007 (CDT)
Also
May I ask what hosting company you are using? Also what version of MediaWiki? And your logo, did you design that, or pull it from somewhere? Wikipens 15:18, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
Thirdly
I didn't even realise MediaWiki 1.9 was out. Geez.
I am considering merging my project into yours, because as I said, it seems kind-of silly to duplicate our efforts. Firsly, would you have any problem with me doing that?
Secondly, do you have a process for adminning other users? Do you plan on allowing other admins? Wikipens 16:18, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- One more thing: Do you make backups of the database ever? Wikipens 16:54, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- So far, I've done backups whenever I upgrade the MediaWiki software. I suppose that's something I'll need to do more frequently, though. --Admin 17:00, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- Sorry for the endless questions, but I am curious and OCD... Did you try using the logo as the favicon? It looks like it would make a really nice favicon, but too much detail might be lost at 16x16, j/w... Wikipens 17:10, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- Also, you can delete the image I uploaded at Image:Endoftheline.jpg if you like, I am not ready to move the article over, I have to figure out the differences in the google maps extensions our two sites use. Wikipens 17:20, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
Ah ha! I didn't notice that "make a map" link. That makes it a lot more intuitive than the GMaps extension I was using. Mine didn't have the ability to do paths, either. Awesome. Wikipens 20:30, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
24 March
I have responded to you on my talk page. Also, I tried to insert route number (Florida 289) into the infobox code for the 9th Avenue article, but it is not displaying, would you mind taking a look at that? I am not good with conditionals. Wikipens 12:19, 24 March 2007 (CDT)
- I'm fairly certain the problem is entirely my fault. (I'm not good with conditionals either.) The Wikipedia road infobox I copied had all kinds of extra parameters for cross-country highways that I omitted, and some of the output fields were probably lost in the process. I'll look into it. --Admin 13:29, 24 March 2007 (CDT)
- Cool. I was using barebones infoboxes on my project that just had params w/o conditionals. Conditionals are useful but confusing as hell. As far as the addresses thing we talked about on my talk page, that works for me. I'd just like a place to put that info, like what business used to be in a particular building, etc. and it doesn't seem fitting to put it in the article for the current occupant. I'm definitely not advocating we have articles for every podunk address in the city with content like "My uncle Jim lives here", etc. As far as the adminship, thanks a bunch. If I make any edits to articles you started, stylistic or otherwise, that you disagree with, feel free to revert me or bring it up with me on my talk page. Wikipens 14:38, 24 March 2007 (CDT)
- Lolz thanks for correcting my redirect. Wikipens 18:22, 24 March 2007 (CDT)
Name change
Hey, do you know how/have the ability to change a username or reassign edits to another username. I don't really want this username, I picked it before I really committed to migrating my content to your site. Wikipens 18:24, 24 March 2007 (CDT)
- I think there's an extension I can install to do this. Create the username you want and let me know. --Admin 19:46, 24 March 2007 (CDT)
- I would appreciate it if you could. I created user User:DCosson. Wikipens 08:14, 25 March 2007 (CDT)
Hey, I really like this Idea...
I found Pensapedia through a talk page on wikipedia, and I really love the idea. I got an account a few days ago, and began editing when I got the time, and I think I got a lot done, albeit haphazardly I suppose. I was just sort of operating on the principal that "whatever I'm about to do is better than no article on this particular subject" I guess. The issue of the CMPA is pretty...fuzzy. The CMPA board has only been in existence for several months, however CMPA, Inc. has been around for several years now. And of course now Quint Studer no longer has any sort of official position in the CMPA. Maybe we could clarify in the article that Community Maritime Park Associates developed the idea for the CMP, instead of simply saying "developed."
Sorry about the vague categories, again, I think I may have been getting a little carried away.
Anyway, this is a wonderful idea and I'll do what I can to help. Thanks a bunch for getting the ball rolling on something like this.

Park-stub and park infobox
Hey. I could do the stub I guess, but we need park stub and park infobox templates established. :-) dcosson ··· talk 12:40, 25 March 2007 (CDT)
- There's an infobox template for parks already: {{Infobox Park}}. See Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Infobox_Park for some examples. There's no stub yet, but I guess you could use {{Comm-stub}} for now. --Admin 12:46, 25 March 2007 (CDT)
Road infobox
Hey, I figured out why the road infobox isn't allowing the route field to be populated. It's the section {{#if:{{{state|}}}| {{!}}colspan="2" align="center"{{!}}'''<big>{{infobox road/{{{state}}} {{{type}}} name|num={{{route}}}}}</big>'''. The Wikipedia template accounts for subtemplates ("Infobox road/state"). At some point (whenever you get around to it), can you strip this section and replace it with a field which is just "Route" for the title and allows me to input route shield images as the content? dcosson ··· talk 15:31, 25 March 2007 (CDT)

Notability
Evening:
I've added three short articles on people whom are not necessarily notable in and of themselves (all children of Augustus E. Maxwell): Lucy Maxwell Meade, Simeon Maxwell II, and John E. Maxwell. I want to get your take on them.
Personally, I think such articles are good. They may encourage genealogists to contribute something. But if you don't want to go down that road, I'd understand. So what do you think? dcosson ··· talk 21:44, 16 April 2007 (CDT)

Historic Pensacola
Accidentally discovered this pedia doing Google searching, and wish I'd run across it earlier. I'm working on the Wikipedia National Register of Historic Places Project, particularly Florida, since that's where I live. Ironically, I took a trip up thru the panhandle last weekend, and spent a good part of Saturday in Pensacola and took lots of pics. Then I find that you've shot a bunch of the places on my list. My goal, btw, is to get shots of all the NRHPs in Florida. If I can figure how to transfer some of yours to Wikipedia, I'd love to, so as to get some of the stuff I missed. And maybe talk you into getting a pic or two of some of the ones I missed? Anyway, good luck with this project.

Pensacola police photos
At [2], a bit down the page under "Pensacola Police of the Past", there are five PPD photos... the first two are c. 1890s and I have uploaded them as PD-old. Of the latter three, the third's date is unknown; the fourth is from 1938, and the fifth is from 1952. The alt comments for the images state they are courtesy of the Pensacola Police Department. Would you gander then that the PPD is copyright holder? Do you know if they are eligible to hold copyright? dscosson ··· talk 12:08, 25 April 2008 (CDT)
- Works of the federal are generally free to use, but the PPD wouldn't fall under that. From here:
3.1.3 Does 17 USC §10560 apply to works of State and Local Governments?
No, it applies only to federal government works. State and local governments may and often do claim copyright in their publications. It is their prerogative to set policies that may allow, require, restrict or prohibit claim of copyright on some or all works produced by their government units.

Date articles
Hey, man... in the date articles you've edited, you're moving the "Events" sections above the "Births" sections... and changing & nbsp;s to regular dashes. Any particular reason lol? Just wondering. dscosson ··· talk 12:36, 5 June 2008 (CDT)
- The Events before Births thing wasn't intentional... just couldn't remember which we've been putting first, or if we had a rule about that. You prefer Births first? As for the dashes, I usually don't bother with the
–code. I just type in the character like I would in a word processor (option-hyphen on my Mac)... is MediaWiki not translating it the right way?
| coded in | typed in |
|---|---|
| - | - |
| – | – |
| — | — |
On a related note, you can see the new right and left arrows in the {{date}} template, right? (Just January so far.) --Admin 12:52, 5 June 2008 (CDT)
- I can see the arrows, yes. For me at least, MediaWiki is rendering what you are putting in as regular dashes. Not a big deal, I prefer n-dashes though, lol. I don't mind you not using them, but do you mind if I correct them? Haha. And I do prefer the order of "Births", "Deaths", "Events", but more for standardisation than for preference. As long as they are all in some standard format, I don't care as much what it is. dscosson ··· talk 15:20, 5 June 2008 (CDT)
- Nah, I don't mind if you change them. That's weird that they're not rendering as proper n-dashes. I'll start doing the coded forms, I guess. Births -> Deaths -> Events is also fine with me, and I'll try to remember that when I get some time to do the other 11 months. --Admin 15:41, 5 June 2008 (CDT)

- Yeah, it's the old Blount Junior High School built in 1937 (expanded from the earlier Lockley Elementary School built in 1915). Closed around '82, it was purchased from the school district by Frank McGinley for about $5000 "as-is." McGinley was going to turn it into retirement apartments and spent about $250k removing asbestos and fixing it up, and even lived in it for a while, but ran out of money.

I have obtained from the UF Libraries a total of 1,885 high-resolution aerial images dating from 1940-1965. I don't know exactly what to do with them. I don't guess I should upload them all because they're huge. Even after converting them to JPEG at 80% quality they're still 2+ MB each, which works out to 3+ GB. They're pretty awesome though.

But even then having them all on the same page would be cumbersome probably. I'll start using them here and there like I've done in Port of Pensacola.

Table Help?
Hey there. I wanted to use something similar to a succession table on Pensacola High School to put the most recent valedictorian and then the one before him/her. I also wanted to do something similar for the salutatorian. So basically it'd be the title in the middle, i.e. Valedictorian, and then on the left it'd have 2008's valedictorian or something and then 2009's on the right, and it could be updated yearly. Then we could somehow link the title to a list of all of the past valedictorians and a list of all past salutatorians or something like that. I can go ahead and work on the list now, and feel free to make suggestions as to the format of the table. I just didn't know the easiest way to do it. Sethisodd 22:06, 27 June 2009 (CDT)
- Trying to make articles for every school's valedictorian and salutatorian would be untenable, I think, especially since many of them don't return to Pensacola after college. A table listing similar to what you started (and what I've since moved to a single article here) should be sufficient, unless the individuals go on to do other things that are notable. — admin • talk 16:17, 29 June 2009 (CDT)
- I think you misunderstood me. I wanted a table on the actual school's page that simply had the names of maybe the past two valedictorians, i.e. Travis Hornsby - 2008 in the left box, then PHS IB Valedictorian in the center, and then Jenny Zeng - 2009 on the right box. Then, PHS IB Valedictorian would link to the now merged page of the lists. It doesn't have to be implemented, but I thought it would be something neat to include on the school's page. Let me know what you think or if you think the idea could be improved. Sethisodd 16:24, 29 June 2009 (CDT)
Article headers
Hey -- did you change how the article headers display? They are just showing up as inline text for me, whereas before they were flash objects with your fancy Pensapedia font. — dscosson • talk 12:18, 2 August 2009 (CDT)
- Yeah, that happened at my work computer after some software update or another. My home computer still shows the Flash font replacement correctly. I expect the technique I'm using is falling out of compliance as browsers are updated. I think the script has since been updated, but I'll probably switch over to CSS3 @font-face embedding. — admin • talk 19:10, 2 August 2009 (CDT)
F. D. Sanders
The City is looking for a photo of Frank Dent Sanders for a plaque at the new Sanders Beach-Corinne Jones Community Center. You can't, by chance, think of anywhere where you have seen a better image than our crummy newsprint photo, can you? — dscosson • talk 11:42, 6 September 2009 (CDT)
