== Re: Other site ==
I'm cool with articles on "lesser" relations of more well-known individuals. Not only is it just being thorough, but historians with better access to primary sources may know more about them. --[[User:Admin|Admin]] 21:56, 16 April 2007 (CDT)
 
== Mundane stuff ==
 
I know it's not as fun as I know it's not as fun as writing articles (which is precisely why I haven't done it yet), but if you have any time, could you help me populate the various Portal and Help pages? I feel like that's a bottleneck that could be limiting wider involvement -- i.e., visitors get to the homepage and don't know where/how to browse/contribute.
 
FYI, I think I'm going to replace the Reference portal (which I originally envisioned as our version of WikiSource) with a generic "People" portal. I also intend to create various sub-portals like Education, Navy, Health care, Architecture, etc.
 
In addition to our talk pages (which have sadly become some of two of the most [[Special:Statistics|popular pages]]), you can [[Special:Emailuser/Admin|email me]] with any questions. Thanks! --[[User:Admin|Admin]] 09:41, 18 April 2007 (CDT)
 
== Progressive Pensacola ==
 
I've been enjoying your [[Progressive Pensacola]] blog posts. Do you intend to transfer the sheriff candidate profiles into Pensapedia articles? <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">&mdash;&nbsp;'''''[[User:Admin|admin]]'''''&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;'''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]'''''&nbsp;</span> 11:59, 23 July 2008 (CDT)
:Much obliged. I hadn't thought about it, to be honest (busy as hell lately, as you I'm sure can tell by my diminished activity here), but it would be a good idea, with some significant editing. I left a lot of biodata out of my profiles for length reasons that would be better suited for Pensapedia.

::Understood. I've been pretty busy meself. I'll just leave it to you when you have some time. <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">&mdash;&nbsp;'''''[[User:Admin|admin]]'''''&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;'''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]'''''&nbsp;</span> 15:42, 23 July 2008 (CDT)
 
== Transparent signatures ==
 
There, I think I got 'em all. The JPGs will have to be replaced manually with their PNG counterparts. (JPGs don't support alpha channel transparency, s'why.) Let me know if you find any more that need the treatment. <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">&mdash;&nbsp;'''''[[User:Admin|admin]]'''''&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;'''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]'''''&nbsp;</span> 20:40, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 
== Google Street View ==
 
FYI... I have installed the widget extension that enables Google Maps Street View. You can see a sample working on [[User talk:Admin#Google Maps Street View|my talk page]]. <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">&mdash;&nbsp;'''''[[User:Admin|admin]]'''''&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;'''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]'''''&nbsp;</span> 17:51, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
 
== Rising Stars ==
 
Nice writeup in the ''IN'', btw. (Was that a Superman pose or what?) Congrats! <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">&mdash;&nbsp;'''''[[User:Admin|admin]]'''''&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;'''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]'''''&nbsp;</span> 18:03, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
:Hahaha. It's my standby pose when I don't know what else to do. I can't believe they used that one. Their photographer went through a few standard poses and then just told me to do whatever. Thanks! <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> 18:07, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
::Gotcha. Not only did they use that shot, you got the "Alice spot" on the cover. (I notice they hid the Obamas in there, while covering up two other dudes in the top corner. Heh.) <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">&mdash;&nbsp;'''''[[User:Admin|admin]]'''''&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;'''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]'''''&nbsp;</span> 18:30, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

== Radio station template ==
 
When you get a minute, could you port [[Wikipedia:Template:Infobox radio station]]? I'm not really so hot at that sort of thing. <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> 09:28, 8 January 2010 (CST)

Wanting to connect as many 'CivicWiki' as I can, would you be interested in hosting a [http://meatballwiki.org/wiki/TourBus bus stop for the tour?]
