specs on listing rare, out of print book

Hi: This U.S. One book is very rare-- found it in the old AAA library in FLA that no longer exists, and in spite of a thorough Wiki page, still not mentioned. The point of the quotes was to alert road enthusiast/historians that there was a series of c. 1938 WPA-funded books. Also, the mile-by-mile description quote was to alert readers/historians that this exists c. 1938. Only the truly committed (like students and academics) would probably track down this important historical resource though.

Was planning to do similar with a 1938 book on the Ocean Highway, so please advise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Piero79 (talkcontribs) 17:54, 11 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You are more than welcome to add a citation for the book on the article, just please format it correctly. You can use {{cite book}} to properly format the link. See for example Wendover Cut-off#Works cited. --AdmrBoltz 17:59, 11 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Are you indirectly saying that you do not accept the argumentation for the addition of the quotes in this exceptional context? Why did you delete the important source and just cut out the quotes you scanned or didn't think were appropriate? The initial reference itself seems fine here. Please clarify — Preceding unsigned comment added by Piero79 (talkcontribs) 18:47, 11 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Quotes do not belong in the "additional reading" section, however a properly formatted citation can be added. --AdmrBoltz 18:51, 11 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Dashes in Utah State Routes

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know that Utah uses dashes for their State Route abbreviations. Don't worry, I will not remove the dashes anymore. I have never been in Utah, so that is why I didn't know about the dashes. Tjkovack (talk) 24:02, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

FA congratulations

Just a quick note to congratulate you on the promotion of Interstate 70 in West Virginia to FA status recently. If you would like to see this (or any other FA you may have helped to write) appear as "Today's featured article" soon, please nominate it at the requests page; if you'd like to see an FA on a particular date in the next year or so, please add it to the "pending" list. In the absence of a request, the article may end up being picked at any time (although with 1,329 articles in Category:Featured articles that have not appeared on the main page at present, there's no telling how long – or short! – the wait might be). If you'd got any TFA-related questions or problems, please let me know. BencherliteTalk 17:04, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Information update

Adding to the very unimpressive list of Boeing's products would seem constructive to me. I am sure you are aware of the several different classes of products that Boeing manufactures, yet only aircraft are listed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.168.220.24 (talk) 03:54, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Admrboltz. I've just unblocked this user - based on my reading of the situation, I think there's been a misunderstanding; it looks as though he ran up against the little-known fact that the Books Tool doesn't work for unconfirmed editors, and mistakenly saved the error code. If I've overlooked something, please feel free to reblock, though I'd be grateful if you'd let me know. All the best, Yunshui  08:33, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. --AdmrBoltz 12:57, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Rev-del request

I see you blocked the "Warmnutz" account. Would you consider deleting the revision it made to the article per RD2?--The Devil's Advocate tlk. cntrb. 18:59, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Never done a rev-del before :) --AdmrBoltz 19:09, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
