message: Hello everyone! I got inspired to start a portal for Seattle (long overdue, in my opinion). If you're interested, please help me fix it up, feature some of the best Seattle articles, and create a list of topics. Any suggestions are welcome!

message: There seem to be no criteria for inclusion in List of buildings in Seattle. There are some pretty obscure inclusions (e.g. the East Republican Street Stairway) and some remarkable omissions (nothing in Pike Place Market, nothing on any college campus). Would someone be interested in taking this under their wing and setting out criteria? Or should we just delete the damn thing and let categories and maybe a Wikipedia-space list of articles we are missing do this work? - Jmabel | Talk 03:21, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This looks like a good case for categories, unless someone wants to add text about Seattle architecture. I don't think we need a standalone article that's just lists. --Lukobe 00:28, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: By the way, I have recently added heavily to :Commons:Category:Pioneer Square, Seattle, Washington.

A lot of these could be the basis of articles, and I've done my best to make the descriptions be at least the equivalent of good stubs. - Jmabel | Talk 07:49, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been wanting to start an article on the Pioneer Square totem pole for a while, but can't seem to get around to it. Being Seattle's first piece of public art and a major icon for the city during the early 20th century, it seems worthy of at article. There are some nice photos at the Commons now (perhaps yours, Jmabel, I can't remember offhand). The totem pole is mentioned in several articles, but mainly in bits and pieces about how it was stolen from the Tlingit and how is was burned and replaced later on. There's a lot more that could be said, especially wrt how it so clearly symbolized Seattle's desired (and acquired) role at the "gateway to the north". Not only did it help usher in the use of Native American artwork as a symbol of Seattle (and mainly styles from the north rather than "local Indians" -- like totem poles themselves), but it was intentionally placed so that it faced to the northwest, toward the Yukon and Alaska. Eventually its role as Seattle's symbolic icon with connotations of the PNW coast to Alaska, Indians and gold, was overshadowed by the "new totem pole" -- the Space Needle, with rather different connotations! Anyway, if I don't manage to get around to it, maybe somebody else will. The newish book Native Seattle has a lot of useful info for such a page. Pfly (talk) 00:20, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

message: What, if anything, are the criteria for inclusion in :Category:Landmarks in Seattle vs. :Category:Buildings and structures in Seattle? Why on earth is the Mercer Arena a landmark while Benaroya Hall is not? (Oh, and the Camlin Hotel is in both, violating the rule about including something in two levels of the category hierarchy.) I suspect that this is a distinction without a difference. It seems to me that if we are to continue to have this category, it should only be for buildings and structures with city landmark designation, NRHP listing, etc. - Jmabel | Talk 08:53, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

text: Yes, but if we are going through the work of checking, I'd rather separate the national designations from the local.

message: ... but it's sure there some place. This comes from Richard C. Berner, Seattle 1900-1920: From Boomtown, Urban Turbulence, to Restoration (1991), Seattle: Charles Press, , p. 118-121.
When Hiram Gill was elected mayor in 1910, he appointed "Wappy" Wappenstein as chief of police. Their "open city" administration was dramatically corrupt, to the point of being a national news story. The police chief cut a graft deal with vice bosses Clarence Gerald and Gideon Tupper: his payoffs amounted to a tax on prostitution, paid into his pocket. Gambling was rampant all over town. Tupper and Gerald were so emboldened that they formed the Hillside Improvement Company to build a resort on Beacon Hill including a 500-room brothel (which was actually built, but became an ordinary apartment house after Gill was recalled as mayor). Oh, and the would-be brothel was so big that it required a street vacation. Etc. Maybe it all belongs in an article on Gill (this was only part of a very checkered career), but I think "Wappy" probably deserves one as well. And possibly some of this should make its way into one of the Seattle history article series. (Berner doesn't say so, but I'm pretty sure that I've read elsewhere that the apartment building in question eventually was destroyed when an airplane crashed into it, so the building really might have article potential in its own right.) - Jmabel | Talk 06:27, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Casliber recently posted a suggestion on the talk page for WikiProject United States about getting the US Wikipedians Collaboration page going again in an effort to build up articles for GA through FA class. See Wikipedia:U.S. Wikipedians' notice board/USCOTM. After several days of work from him the page is up and ready for action. A few candidates have already been added for you to vote on or you can submit one using the directions provided. If you are looking for inspiration here is a link to the most commonly viewed articles currently under the scope of Wikiproject United States. There are tons of good articles in the various US related projects as well so feel free to submit any article relating to US topics (not just those under the scope of WPUS). This noticeboard is intended for ‘’’All’’’ editors working on US subjects, not just those under WPUS.
The next item I intend to start updating is Portal:United States if anyone is interested in helping. Again this is not specific to WPUS and any help would be greatly appreciated to maximize visibility of US topics. The foundation has already been established its just a matter of updating the content with some new images, biographies and articles. Please let leave a comment on the Portals talk page or let me know if you have any questions or ideas. --Kumioko (talk) 19:25, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

message: Greetings, there is a discussion regarding removal of the logic used to populate Automatically assessed article categories from Template:WikiProject United States. Most of the categories (over 220 Wikipedia wide) were deleted in February 2013 because they were empty. These categories were previously populated by a bot that hasn't run since 2011 and the categories aren't used.

We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

replies: text: Yes, in general they both meet Wikipedia's minimum requirements in WP:RS. The Stranger often includes opinion in their news articles, so you have to pay attention to what's being said. If a particular fact is in disupte between The Stranger and a larger news organization, I'd probably go with the larger one. If an extraordinary claim is being made in The Stranger, but isn't corroborated in any other source, I'd probably leave it out. Or else attribute it by name to the article's author.<P>If what you're really asking is if Marcus Charles should be speedy deleted, then you should de-prod the article and take it to AFD.

message: The Seattle Civil Rights & Labor History Project at UW has a trove of material that we should be using to expand Seattle and related articles. Currently there is no mention of redlining and racially restrictive covenants in the Seattle article, or in History of Seattle or the Timeline of Seattle or Demographics of Seattle. Columbia City, Seattle is the only article I could find that makes passing mention of housing discrimination. The History article claims that Seattle's neighborhoods evolved organically with no central planing, but there is of course decades of evidence that racial segregationist policies are the reason for the current racial makeup of the city. There are excellent maps that illustrate this over time, which we should be able to reproduce with various mapping tools, as well as copy any maps out of copyright or made by government sources.<P>It's particularly interesting to note that this is not ancient history. Position 9 City Council Candidate Bill Bradburd has strongly denounced the UW findings, and the Mayor's Housing Report specifically because it includes the conclusion that Seattle single family neighborhood's are the result of a segregationist past. It appears that those who oppose upzoning, adding density to single family areas, etc, in favor of the status quo, find it politically uncomfortable to say how Seattle's neighborhoods got this way.<P>I know this sounds very POV to say, but housing segregation in Seattle is a historical fact with zero opposition from credible historians. Wikipedia's policy is to generally conform to that, while giving adequate attention to the significant modern political movement that denies it. Given that even a Featured Article like Seattle makes no mention of this history, it's not surprising that much of the public believes it never happened here.<P>So there's a great opportunity to expand several articles to cover this history, and the UW has done most of the work for us. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 21:18, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
