I could probably make a hash of this, but I appreciate that you are more adept at these details. I was going to try to explain how the path of the railroad affected all of the related communities; Fillmore, Santa Paula, Simi Valley, Moorpark, Oxnard Montalvo/Ventura. Here's a source Trackinfo (talk) 17:03, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

@Trackinfo: Very interesting source. This is the most direct explanation I have seen so I will incorporate it. Thanks Fettlemap (talk) 17:10, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

@Fettlemap:,
I just wanted to reach out and formally introduce myself. I've noticed we have overlapped with each other several times on Californian topics and want to say I am a fan/supporter of your work on Wikipedia. It's always nice to see other Californians working to improve and expand topics relating to CA. Just wanted to say if I can ever help you out on CA topics, let me know! I'm from NorCal, and from your edits I assume you are from SoCal, but if there is ever a way for us to help each other in improving things for Californian articles, just know I am here to offer a helping hand. Kind regards, Cristiano Tomás (talk) 22:18, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

@Cristiano Tomás:,

Thanks for reaching out, you are correct on all counts. I constantly appreciate your edits. When I look them over, I always know I can learn something about how to improve articles. Thanks for the offer of help, I will keep it in mind and know you can contact me anytime if something comes up. Cheers, Fettlemap (talk) 22:25, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi User:Fettlemap. Given that the Silicon Valley Community Foundation primarily covers our history, I would like to request adding some information about what the organization does. I have put a few of our programs/grant titles on the talk page along with formatted citations that cover them. I’m wondering if you would find it a good use of your time to add some content there on these programs? I am also tagging User:Smuckola, User:Cristiano Tomás, and User:Binksternet who have recently made edits to the article to broader input. Thank you for your consideration.

Hi Fettlemap. Thanks so much for removing the "Controversies" sections from the several Brookfield Asset Management-related articles. I wonder if you could also take a look at a previous edit request I posted at Talk:Brookfield Asset Management#Request to revert non-NPOV edits concerning some edits that were made which I believe reduced the overall neutrality of the article. Some of the problems were already dealt with satisfactorily, but others were allowed to remain. I am asking you, an experienced editor, to have a look and see if there is some room for improvement to the article's neutrality. Thanks again for all your help.

Hello Adflatuss!

• The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
• We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
• Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
• Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
• If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.

Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

You removed the Sally Hampton entry from the Notable people section of View Park–Windsor Hills for lacking a citation. Here's a reliable source: Gold, Scott. "Concern spills in Windsor Hills." Los Angeles Times, July 4, 2008. https://www.latimes.com/local/la-me-outthere4-2008jul04-story.html — directly quotes "Sally Hampton... who has lived in Windsor Hills." Could this be restored with the citation attached? I've also left a formal request on the article's talk page. I'd also note that Dave Waymer's entry in the same list has no citation for his residence in Windsor Hills either, and it wasn't removed. Here's coverage confirming his connection to Sally Hampton: https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/2022/1/24/22895692/life-of-a-saint-dave-waymer — Hampton dedicated her Disney movie A Saintly Switch to him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Saintly_Switch

Could this be restored with the citation attached? I've also left a formal request on the article's talk page. 729zoom (talk) 07:33, 22 July 2026 (UTC)

Following up on the Sally Hampton entry. I've added a citation to resolve the sourcing issue you raised, and I've also noted on the article talk page that eleven other entries on the same list currently have no citation at all and haven't been challenged. Given that, removing this entry again after it's now sourced would be difficult to justify as applying a consistent standard. I'd ask that it be left in place, or that the same standard be applied evenly across the list. 729zoom (talk) 16:51, 22 July 2026 (UTC)
