message: * Vince Redd, former American football Line Backer for the New England Patriots 
Does Redd qualify for a notable "Famous native and resident" listing?  Redd does not seem to have anywhere near the popular name recognition and professional starting career as an American football player as does Jason Witten (I am admittedly not a football fanatic and had to read through the Vince Redd wikiarticle to learn some background information about Reed and his seemingly stalled American football career, so perhaps I should not be making the edit decision to remove Redd from this Elizabethton category...)Bee Cliff River Slob (talk) 22:27, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

message: I am thinking that this article could benefit with some material pertaining to the Elizabethton city parks & recreation dpartment, and more specifically to information about the city parks (i.e.; the Linear Riverside Trail, the Covered Bridge & Elk Avenue Park, and; the park area near the county court house) in addition to other P&R assets such as the city golf course, the rec center in Blackbottom (morning interior pictures of the rec center would be especiall nice, and the riverside ballpark in Blackbottom4.88.154.89 21:32, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Eliz Seal.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:56, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Colonial settlement: ''"...a defperate Body of Settlers"''

message: This is my very first time as a Wiki user, so I hope this works!  First, I think the article is great, especially for the size of the town.  Glad to know that 'Betsy's long/proud history is so well represented.  As for as the expansion of the 'mills' section goes, I can only think of the major(suspicious?)fire a few years ago at North American, that led to the eventual re-development of the land. And the strikes in the early 1930's(?) (which were commmon throughout the nation and industry)  Question: Are either or these matters worthwhile?  And, might I get some help/suggestions as to how to go about adding what I know with enough confidence to warrant the research required to properly cite these histories.  Again this is my first go around with this,(although I read Wiki habitually) and have had little success in the 'sandbox'.  I fear I am a far better historian than editor!  I just don't want to mess a good page up with clumsy or useless info. --FatBean (talk) 06:38, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

message: I am replacing the climate table removed by User:Huntser (User_talk:Huntster) as the cited source is listing information from the USWS reporting for the entire Northeast Tennessee area (also known statewide as the area roughly encompassed by the triangular layout of the "Tri-Cities" (i.e. Bristol, Johnson City, and Kingsport) Carter County, Elizabethton (a Tennessee municipality within the Tri-Cities), the Doe River, the Watauga River (Tennessee section), etc. are all located within the 60 mile radius of this Northeast Tennessee area --- the review of this information is probably not neceessary for most "Tri-Cities" residents within Northeast Tennessee, but provided for those Wiki editors who may not be familiar with the Northeast Tennessee area.
Tri-Cities Regional Airport
Tri-Cities, Tennessee 
National Weather Service
The upshot the climate table in question presents the weather/climate information for the entire Tri_Cities as provided by the U.S. government and agencies such as the NOAA/National Weather Service. Bee Cliff River Slob (talk) 12:04, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Climate Table

message: I though that I should explain some of my edits at the Elizabethton wiki article, with the most noticeable perhaps being: better layout of image files throughout the artcle: 
image substitutions (i.e., info box photo with people about the July 4th parade as opposed to the shadowy ghost town image), 
deletion of large and very slow ISP loading Holston Mountain panoramic (an image file that I am thinking to be better suited for the Carter County, Tennessee, Johnson County, Tennessee and/or Holston Mountain wiki articles or better still as a contribution to Wikimedia Commons), and;
cleaning up the reference hyperlinks.
I am still wanting to address a matter pertaining to a dead link and a reference page number and a brief mention of the downtown brick canopy finished during the early 1970s, but I am running out of time today....Bee Cliff River Slob (talk) 20:03, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Overmountain Victory NHT Headquarters/Visitor Center Feasibility Study and Environmental Assessment Public Scoping Notice	 
Description: The National Park Service (NPS) proposes to establish a new Headquarters and Visitor's Center (HQ/VC) for the Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail, a 330-mile long non-motorized route for public use that traverses portions of Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina. 
This Feasibility Study and Environmental Assessment (EA) will analyze four different sites and assesses the impacts that could result from the operation of a new facility at each location. The EA also analyzes the no action alternative, which is the continued use and operation of the current headquarters at King's Mountain National Park, located in Blacksburg, SC. 
Public meetings are now being held between 5:00pm and 8:00pm in four different locations to solicit input on the potential sites for the HQ/VC:

Feasibility Study and Environmental Assessment for a Headquarters and Visitor Center	 
http://parkplanning.nps.gov/projectHome.cfm?parkID=400&projectId=25061
The National Park Service (NPS) proposes to establish a new Headquarters and Visitor's Center (HQ/VC) for the Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail, a 330-mile long non-motorized route for public use that traverses portions of Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
In recent years, the Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail has dramatically increased its visibility and regional importance. Currently, more than one million people use marked trail sections annually. As a result of this increased regional presence and involvement, as well as growing public support for the trail and its history, additional NPS presence is needed to accomplish operational and administrative tasks and assist partners with various projects and initiatives. However, expanded and regional NPS presence is currently inhibited by the lack of a dedicated and centrally located facility.
This Feasibility Study and Environmental Assessment (FS/EA) will analyze four different sites and assesses the impacts that could result from the establishment of a new facility at each location. The FS/EA also analyzes the no action alternative, which is the continued use and operation of the current headquarters at King's Mountain National Park, located in Blacksburg, SC.
