February 2026

Please do not change the name of files in articles as you did to Autry Museum of the American West. It breaks the link to the file. I have corrected the mistake. In the future, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

The "Show preview" button is right next to the "Publish changes" button and below the edit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask on my talk page, or to post at the help desk for assistance. Thank you. Katniss May the odds be ever in your favor ♥ 17:38, 26 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Oh my. I am definitely aware of that and have reverted several file name changes myself. Sorry about the oversight. Ken Gallager (talk) 19:13, 26 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Harrisville

Thank you for your edits to Harrisville, NH. Could you add Harrisville and the mills there to your list of places in NH needing photos sent to WikiCommons? Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by DebHR (talk • contribs) 22:08, 26 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your comment. The list that I keep is for places whose articles either need a photo or need a better photo. Harrisville now has an ample collection of good photos! My experience with adding photos to articles is that an editor comes along pretty quickly and adds them to Commons. Happy editing, Ken Gallager (talk) 09:42, 27 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

"mass edit removed all links to the state"

Hi, I just wanted to clarify and ask whether your edit summaries "mass edit removed all links to the state" were referring to my AWB MOS:GEOLINK revisions? If so, I can assure you that my AWB edits were not the diffs that removed the links to the states that your diffs re-added. Transgenderoriole (talk) 03:42, 14 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

No, it meant they removed all existing links to the state. The other spots were not linked at the times you removed the remaining ones. Ken Gallager (talk) 10:02, 14 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the clarification. Transgenderoriole (talk) 19:43, 14 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

NH Editors

Hey Mr. Gallagher, thank you for the appreciation on Wetherbee's page. Looks like you're always there to help me out when I'm making NH-edits. Much love from a Goffstown boy! BakedintheHole (talk) 12:24, 29 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for doing the heavy lifting! I was chagrined when his previous article was deleted. Ken Gallager (talk) 12:29, 29 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I'm also gonna start combing through your list of NH articles missing photos and adding what I can find on Commons. I'll leave a little signature next to each one I help with so as not to delete items off your page. BakedintheHole (talk) 14:20, 29 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]
