Hey, I really like this Idea...
==Other site==Admin: I run [http://wikipensacola.com 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? :-) [[User:Wikipens|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? [[User:Wikipens|Wikipens]] 15:18, 16 March 2007 (CDT):Wasn't sure if you noticed my previous response, but I'm posting answers to these questions on your [[User_talk:Wikipens|talk page]]. --[[User:Admin|Admin]] 16:01, 16 March 2007 (CDT)::Yeah, I noticed. [[User:Wikipens|Wikipens]] 16:18, 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? [[User:Wikipens|Wikipens]] 16:18, 16 March 2007 (CDT) :One more thing: Do you make backups of the database ever? [[User:Wikipens|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. --[[User:Admin|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... [[User:Wikipens|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. [[User:Wikipens|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. [[User:Wikipens|Wikipens]] 20:30, 16 March 2007 (CDT){{RightTOC}}

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. [[User:Wikipens|Wikipens]] 12:19, 24 March 2007 (CDT)

:'''''Eight years later...''''' Hey, I'm moving back to Pensacola after going to FSU then working in the Washington, D.C. area for a few years. I started poking around Pensapedia in the last few weeks and realized that it could be a lot of fun to start editing it again, so you may see a more activity than normal in the next couple of weeks at least. By the way, I noticed that there are a ton of pages that appear to have been created by spam accounts; I've been deleting the content and commenting that they are "spam pages that should be deleted". If there's a better way for me to ago about this, I'd be happy to do it.
 
:Thanks for keeping this site up!

Not sure if you still even check this page, but if you ever see it, I have another signature that could use transparefying. I need to learn how to do this (well).

:Very strange, doesn't correspond with the geography of Pensacola as I ever knew it. It's definitely the late 20s, early 30s judging by the cars. The tall building labeled as American National Bank ''could'' be the back side of what I knew as the Empire Bldg. and at Gov't and Palafox; but that would mean the camera is somewhere in the vicinity of Government St. between Railroad St. and Seville Square, and the big body of water at the right doesn't make sense.
:The lower dark bldg. left of the bank tower would be sitting on Ferdinand Plaza; that doesn't work.
:Also at the far right is an ornate, baroque church looking kind of building, which is not something I recognize. Plus some more baroque/mediterranean looking buildings not as tall, don't recognize either. And if you look dead center in the photograph, beyond the covered street bridge (also nothing I recognize), the tall building in the distance seems to be set at an angle - which again doesn't correspond to Pensacola geography.
:Don't think the water could be the bayfront, as the Empire Bldg. isn't that close to the water.
:Plus there are too many palm trees (?) at the left of the pic to correspond with that area of downtown. I don't think its Pensacola. Mobile, maybe? Jacksonville? Did the Am. Nat'l Bk. have a branch over thereoutside Pensacola? A mystery, for sure. Where did you find this? [[User:Textorus|Textorus]] 02:53, 22 September 2010 (CDT)::It was listed on eBay and advertised as Pensacola. I think you're right though, despite the American National Bank signage, this has to be somewhere else. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">—&nbsp;'''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]'''&nbsp;</span> 10:45, 22 September 2010 (CDT) == Registration == Was browsing the site and found something that wanted correction (a red link for which there is a page but under a slightly different name) but without a login it looks like my edits won't take. I think I might be able to make a few more contributions - I have some original photos from the NAS which would not be under anyone else's copyright that I might contribute plus some other things, however, I cannot find a registration function which branches off the login page on most wikis. Am an editor in wikipedia - not terribly prolific but my edits persist because I know what I am doing and on several wikispot wikis as well as being a long term editor on DMOZ and a publisher of many sites. Is there some way I might get a login for Pensapedia? I also don't find any easy messaging system besides talk and I don't want to leave my email/contact details in the clear.
