• If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
• Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
• Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.

You are so my favorite new editor. What do you think--should Cimarron Territory be redirected to Neutral Strip (Oklahoma) or does it warrant its own page? I'll leave it to your good judgment. I'd fancy a Cimarron page myself, but I'm not caught up enough on OK to be able to decide. jengod

I thik you're looking in the wrong place CPret. There are several talk page for the WikiProject, the current discussion is going on with the anon's proposed rewrite is at Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Regions/General. There is also talk specifically about the new maps at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject U.S. regions/Maps. Sorry for the confusion. -JCarriker 16:03, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)

• Regardless of if you know it or not CPret, what you just proposed on Talk:Southwestern United States is exactly what WikiProject U.S. regions is trying to do and what Jmabel and I are tyring to do at Western United States and American West. As such I see no problem with your proposed rewrite. -JCarriker 16:10, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • I have placed a survey on Talk:American West, please vote in it. -JCarriker 21:22, July 9, 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed that you began some work on the Cherokee Strip (Kansas) article, and wanted to make you aware of a new wikiproject, Kansas. Please consider joining us, if you are still interested in articles concerning the state of Kansas. ----Steve 21:33, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Map of Little Dixie Oklahoma.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 17:49, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
