Hi, you're doing great work, but you're using too many capital letters in page names, making them difficult to link to. Please don't capitalize page names of generic terms like voting rights organization, because it makes it impossible to link neatly like that... Anonymous troll 15:31, 29 May 2006 (PDT)
See dKosopedia:page name issue and other dKosopedia:naming outlines, but especially conserve capitals.
Obviously, if some group has a specific name, then it's capitalized because it's a proper name. Anonymous troll 15:31, 29 May 2006 (PDT)
Will change those names when I have a chance. Thanks for the friendly request. A tip for whoever posted the comments on those discussion pages: "unhelpful names" is much better than "worst names in the world". I made the change.
Okay, I went ahead and did a massive renaming. --AlanF 16:57, 26 June 2006 (PDT)

Good catch. I missed the misspelling. Chadlupkes 12:20, 2 July 2006 (PDT)
Alan, good work. You're now a sysop, which means you can protect and unprotect pages, move pages, and edit certain templates. --Centerfielder 12:30, 28 September 2006 (PDT)
Amen to that. I really appreciate your work on voting integrity. --Corncam 13:09, 28 September 2006 (PDT)
Wow, thanks, C&C! I promise to use my superpowers for good. AlanF 14:05, 28 September 2006 (PDT)
Bill pages
Alan, I noticed you've been creating some articles for congressional bills (e.g. H.R.811). I've been making stub pages for bills by bulk import from thomas.gov, but they can be hard to find via search unless you know the exact name. The convention I've been using is to put a space between the abbreviation and the bill number, followed by a dash and the Congress number: H.R. 811-110. You can use these stub pages to build on. I've also made a current-status template for each bill that can be inserted in related pages, and that gets updated whenever I do an import from thomas. —Abou Ben Adhem 12:05, 10 February 2007 (PST)
