Thank you for your years of good work on Wikipedia. Andre🚐 21:31, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
You did a ton of good work here. Your articles are holding up well. Do well, be happy. Don't let jealous and small people hurt you. Andre🚐 07:08, 15 December 2023 (UTC) I'm sorry you've decided to walk away. I also get irritated by WP pettiness and the jobsworth attitude of some editors. You have made a positive contribution to the project, and I hope you return at some stage. --Ef80 (talk) 18:35, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

In Sam Robert's book on Grand Central (paperback p140), in describing the 1968 Yip-In, he writes: "They were dispersed by nightstick-wielding police officers after they hurled firecrackers and spun the hands off the information booth's priceless four-faced opalescent glass clock. (Another of its faces was later pierced by a bullet, apparently fired by a police officer in pursuit. That face is now at the Transit Museum.)" When he says "later" do we know that it was later during the Yippie event? Or just at a later time and date? The Untapped Cities blog post paraphrases his description as definitely part of the Yip-In, but I cannot find confirmation either way. Darby23shire (talk) 19:37, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

I took to calling you that because otherwise you had no name...it was "invisible" everywhere to me. Tell me you haven't quit! I'm skipping reading page histories to find out why, but you were one of the Great Wikipedians. A bit, uh, willful, but the quality of your work more than made up for it. Heck, just the quality of your pictures did. That series of the Golden Gate...it's like being there, only being somewhere you're never ever going to get on your own. Fantastic. I'm not going to try to persuade you to come back - though I hope you do. But could you please, would you please, be open to *unblanking* your home page...so that others can recognize what an incredible asset you were to this encyclopedia, and still enjoy and draw from and upon the work you did here. It certainly can't hurt (but maybe some bruised pride), but may well help further the message you have put in its place. OK, have your say on the way out. You earned it. But can't you just leave that as a sort of preface, or banner, and reinstate the rest as it was? You'd be doing everyone - including yourself - a huge service. Sure, such an effort having somewhat the properties of a "public good", won't let you do so and easily exclude the punkinheads who don't deserve it from profiting alongside everyone else who wasn't part of driving you away. It would be great if you could, but please don't let that get stop you from doing it for everyone else. Your oeuvre is monstrous. Monstrous in size, and monstrous good. And should not disappear down some crummy digital memory hole because of some jerks. Don't let them win. And don't prevent others from learning what has been lost. All the best.
