[edit] oil drop

Qyd,

I would like to use the beautiful oil drop image (Oil-drop.png) you created for a project, but I need a 300 dpi resolution image. Could you help me out with this please? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.61.34.247 (talk) 07:02, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm afraid I deleted the image from my system long time ago, sorry. --Qyd (talk) 14:07, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] List of Alberta Highways

I have recently completed an extensive search for Alberta secondary highways using a Government of Alberta issued map, to complete the list for List of Alberta provincial highways#Secondary highway series. After which I have discovered that you have created a number of pages for highways that I could find no reference of. I think that you may like to be informed of the following changes:

Up for deletion are:

• Alberta secondary highway 502
• Alberta secondary highway 575
• Alberta secondary highway 745
• Alberta Highway 745
• Alberta secondary highway 788
• Alberta secondary highway 901
• Alberta secondary highway 940
• Alberta secondary highway 989

Redirected because I could find no reference of:

• Alberta Highway 502 to Alberta Highway 877
• Alberta Highway 788 to Spruce Grove, Alberta

Redirected because it appears their name changed:

• Alberta Highway 637 to Alberta Highway 29
• Alberta Highway 794 to Alberta Highway 44
• Alberta Highway 940 to Alberta Highway 40
• Alberta Highway 989 to Alberta Highway 986

Redirected to the former highways section:

• Alberta Highway 637
• Alberta Highway 745
• Alberta Highway 788
• Alberta Highway 794
• Alberta Highway 940
• Alberta Highway 989

I trust you are understanding of these changes. 117Avenue (talk) 06:52, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Thanks for the Barnstars! Kyle1278 02:50, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Former Alberta Highways

I have recently completed a list of former Alberta Provincial highways, and added it to the List of Alberta provincial highways#Former Highways. I am hoping that you could expand to this list, any highways that were before my time, and what year these changes were made. Thanks - 117Avenue (talk) 21:32, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] File:Northwest-relief.jpg

Hey Qyd. Are you willing to add a more detailed description for the source of this image? "USGS data" is not a well defined source description and it remains an issue for File:Northern Cordilleran Volcanic Province.jpg and File:NCVP seismic volcanoes.png because they are derivatives of that image. See Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Northern Cordilleran Volcanic Province/archive1 for more. BT (talk) 01:03, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

USGS means United States Geological Survey; as a US government agency, all their products are public domain. And so is the file. Can't get more issue free than that. --Qyd (talk) 04:10, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

I know the meaning of USGS, I just did not understand how "USGS data" is a problem as a source description because USGS data is public domain. Where did the file originate from? BT (talk) 05:15, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

I downloaded the data, loaded it in a GIS program, set up colors, projection, etc and saved is as an image. I suppose I can say I created the file (hence, author=me).--Qyd (talk) 04:19, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

[edit] List of Communities in Alberta

Hi Qyd, I see you have some history with the above article and have also noted your past involvement with the List of Alberta Highways article. I wanted to give you a head's up that I am going to improve this article over numerous sequential edits such that it is consistent with the types of municipalities listed in the Municipal Government Act and the hierarchy of municipalities presented on the Alberta Municipal Affairs website (see http://www.municipalaffairs.alberta.ca/am_what_are_municipalities.cfm). I was thinking of the following municipal categories with the following municipal types within:

• Urban Municipalities (Cities, Towns, Villages and Summer Villages);
• Specialized Municipalities;
• Rural Municipalities (Municipal Districts aka Counties, Improvement Districts and Special Areas);
• Former Municipalities (those municipalities that have dissolved or amalgamated to become part of other municipalities);
• Unincorporated Comminities (Urban Services Areas to cover off Fort McMurray and Sherwood Park, Townsites to cover off Redwood Meadows on the Tsuu T'ina Nation, and Hamlets];
• Métis Settlements;
• Indian Reserves; and
• Other (Ghost Towns).

Everything will be verifyiable by various publications on the Municipal Affairs website. So, if you have any questions or concerns throughout the sequential edit process, please don't hesitate to contact me. Cheers, --Hwy43 (talk) 03:14, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Sounds like a great plan, structure seems solid, best of luck with it, cheers. --Qyd (talk) 04:16, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

As I revamp this article, I now realize that the List of Cities/Towns/Villages/etc. of Alberta articles will also have to be revamped to ensure consistency and to minimize redundancy. I'll move onto these pages after the revamp of this article is complete. --Hwy43 (talk) 09:03, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
