Thanks! :) FYI, I'm watching the article, though as I do and check on other things it may dramatically bounce up and down my 'attention scale'. As you might have see me say or just noticed, I don't really write or edit copy, but I can line edit, and mostly try to focus on 'meta-editorial' kind of 'maintenance' things.
If you specifically want me to look at something, you can poke me on my Talk, template:talkback me to more briefly aim me at discussion in a particular place, or just add the page to my ' to do list' for things that are 'mess with this stub sometime'-class. :)
I'm not really an 'expert' on wikiCoding at this point, as I'm only fairly recently actually getting 'involved' in the community and things more complicated than just 'semi-random' factchecking and correction. I know how to do a lot of little basic things that most editors, in their focus on content and copy, seem to consistently miss, though. I'd also love being pointed at articles that do 'interesting' and 'correct' things with code, as I can use them as a reference to non-obvious places in the docs.
An example of what I mean is Rittenhouse Elementary School, a work in progress. The 'nesting' of the infoboxes (it's the NRHP one inside the school one) and the formatting of the EXTREMELY convoluted and extensive citations is all my work, that I recently figured out exactly how to do specifically for that article. Revent ( talk) 04:23, 4 May 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for all the details. I'm so new at this everything you say is a learning experience for me. ;-) There's another new tech device I'm going to look into. I see Google Glass has a page started so I'm going to look into another new device people say may be similar to GG but in my research shows they are NOT that similar. It's another pair of video recording glasses that MAY help Alzheimer patients called Epiphany Eyewear. Have you heard about them? Developed by Vergence Labs out of California. Hey the work on Rittenhouse Elementary School looks good, too. Wikipedia can be fun once things get moving forward. I find it pretty amazing; especially when new pages can be added for new technology!!! Again, thanks for your wonderful editorial skills. I will probably call on you again if I can get enough citations for Epiphany Eyewear. Enjoy your weekend. 301man ( talk) 14:22, 4 May 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Erick Miller wearing Ephiphany Eyewear.png. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Erick Miller, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. You have repeatedly made statements that make it unambiguously clear that you are either Erick Miller or someone with a close connection to him. For example, you state that you personally were the creator of the picture that you uploaded as File:Erick Miller Academy presentation.png, and that you are the copyright owner of File:Erick Miller.png, which was "sent to [you] personally". You can't have it both ways: either you have a personal connection to Miller, or else you don't follow him round taking photographs of him, and he doesn't send you photographs of him and donate their copyright to you.

I found this on a Wikipedia Mentor's page.... It's a good one...... thanks Cullen328 ....
Hello, I responded on my talk page, and will add a bit here. I see that you've picked up some discussions on civility from my pages, originally written by Jimbo Wales, and that you have repeated them here. I am a big advocate of civility, and that is fine and important, but much more than civility is required to be a successful editor here. We are here to build a neutral, reliable encyclopedia about notable topics, summarizing what reliable sources say about a topic. There have been literally millions of attempts to use and abuse Wikipedia for promotional purposes, and experienced editors have seen it all, over and over again. Success here requires scrupulous adherence to our policies and guidelines. Articles that fail to comply with policies and guidelines should be deleted. Insistence on that compliance is not incivility. Can you go along with that? Cullen328 Let's discuss it 03:50, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
For various personal reasons, I have only just read your email asking for a copy of Epiphany Eyewear. I have userfied it at User:301man/Epiphany Eyewear for you. Sorry about the delay. JamesBWatson ( talk) 12:32, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
I've just found your latest email. I don't have time now to give it the amount of thought it would take to give a full answer, so I'll try to deal with it tomorrow. I will, however, just answer one quick point now. If a source is relevant to two articles then there is no reason at all why it can't be used on both.
One other point. Unless there is confidential information which you don't want to make public, it is usually best for messages about Wikipedia editing to be on Wikipedia talk pages, rather than in emails. If there is some reason why you don't want the content you sent me to be publicly visible, then it was OK to email it, but I can't see anything that looks to me to be confidential.

Hello Experienced Editors & Admins:
I've been working on this page for a few months, and maybe it's ready to submit. Before submitting, I'd like some feedback from other editors.
Here's the link if you'd please send me some feedback/comments: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:301man/Erick_Miller
I'll start a new section on my Talk page to get feedback, or you can leave your comments in the Teahouse to discuss. Appreciate your help! Thank you, 301man ( talk) 10:04, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
Hello Teahouse: Don't know what I'd do without YOU! :-)
Is there a page on Wikipedia with instructions for using the same reference in an article more than once without making the Reference appear in the "Reference" section more than once?
I'll post this on my Talk page, too for anyone who wants to add please post a "Teahouse talkback" tag so I'm sure not to miss your assistance. I've looked in Help, but must not be searching right. I can't seem to locate the info I need.

I see you added some specs to the Warm Mouse article. Only one of the specs has a citation. But they all should be cited.
There are a couple of ways to do it. If every spec comes from the same source, you can do something like this:
"The specifications for the ValuesRays Warm Mouse are:
Alternatively, if the specs come from different sources, then probably best to have them at the end of each bulleted line, using a ref name tag for any cites that are repeats of what you've used elsewhere.
Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers. N2e ( talk) 18:48, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
Good job 301man on the recent article improvements I suggested. Thanks for taking my comments so well.
Minor item: there is still some inconsistency on the spacing between article prose statements and the citations to support the statements. I offered a guideline on that above.
There is lots more you'll learn as you hang around the Wikipedia world, and those of us who people the editing side of that world, but you're doing great! As before, drop on by my Talk page anytime you want some help on something, or have a question about how to approach a problem. Best, N2e ( talk) 00:26, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
