::Seems like an interesting site, about Prairie school architecture, akin to what can be done in Wikipedia, but done well by a private individual. And we in wikipedia could systematically link to that site's nice pics, e.g. [http://www.prairieschooltraveler.com/html/ny/rochester/boynton.html this subpage about Boynton house in Rochester, NY]. What do you mean to refer me to at the bottom? Maybe you meant the by state links? Or I am afraid i might be missing the lighter side of what you mean. --[[User:doncram|<font color="maroon">do</font>]][[User talk:Doncram|<font color="green">ncr</font>]][[Special:Contributions/doncram|<font color="maroon">am</font>]] 21:57, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

:::Nope, I did mean the individual state links. I took some photos up in [[Jacksonville, Florida|Jax]] yesterday, and was checking to see if I got the right buildings. Found the site in the process. It's not a reliable source, per se, but could prove useful as a starting point to find out more about buildings. Later! :) --[[User:Ebyabe|Ebyabe]] ([[User talk:Ebyabe|talk]]) 04:25, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

== Your continued comments about my NRHP tools ==

I need to impress the following points onto you:

* My infobox generator creates '''infoboxes'''. In-fo-box-es. It doesn't generate articles. I don't know why you continue to tell people that I'm generating articles that are inferior to what you generate, because I'm not in the business of generating articles.

* If you want to complain about the kind of output that my infobox generator delivers, or about the fact that my system translates the "architect" field in the NRIS database into the "architect" field in the infobox, then there's a separate section to complain about that in the [[WP:AN]] thread. If you really want to review my behavior and my edits and my generator, complain THERE. Go ahead and tell all the world what I've done wrong. But do it in a separate section, not [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=432223597&oldid=432216974 here] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=432112470&oldid=432112016 here] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=432085222 here] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=432081899 here] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=432076964 here] and especially [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=432033902 here], where you asserted that I didn't really know when the [[Floyd B. Olson House]] was built. I'm getting really sick and tired of your complaints about my infobox generator. Like I said before, you're using my query tools and infobox generator to defend your own conduct.

* No matter how much you complain about my infobox generator and my query tools, it doesn't excuse your responsibility for writing statements such as, "It was built and/or designed and/or has other significance in 1922, 1936, and 1945. See the National Register nomination form dated ____ __, ____, with __ photos and __ documentation pages."

* If you aren't even using my infobox generator and query tools any more, then it's long since time for you to stop complaining about them. If some other editor is using my query tools to generate articles like "architect = x", where "x" is really a builder or engineer, then maybe you should ask that editor about it, not me. Or, if some other editor uses my infobox generator to say that the date built is the first significant year, where it actually isn't, then you should take up that complaint with the other editor, not me. The alternative is for me to stop providing the infobox generator at all, and that would be a very unpopular proposal.

You need to address the criticisms and the complaints being leveled against you and your editing behaviors. --[[User:Elkman|Elkman]] <sup>[[User talk:Elkman|(Elkspeak)]]</sup> 19:56, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
