'''I am here because:'''

'''Casa Linda''' is a neighborhood in [[East Dallas|East]] [[Dallas, Texas|Dallas]], [[Texas]]. It is situated to the south and east of [[White Rock Lake]] and to the south of Garland Rd. The neighborhood features 1/2 acre plus tree-lined estates along winding roads.Residents enjoy the proximity to White Rock Lake,The Dallas Arboretum and historic Casa Linda shopping center. Casa Linda Estates, along with Lakewood and Forest Hills, are the most desirable neighborhoods in East Dallas. ( though the price for estate in Casa Linda neighborhood is much cheaper than the other twos)

I have noticed that content creation, while a worthy activity, involves significant investment of time and labor, and can require excellent conflict management skills. Moreover, there is a lot of high quality content creation already underway, so what little contributions I will have time for would be a drop in the ocean.

I have also noticed that the Wikipedia community generally deals well (openly, efficiently, and with a sensible outcome) with certain classes of problem, once notified - for instance, [[WP:AFD|articles for deletion]] or [[WP:CV|suspected copyright violations]].

{{Texas-geo-stub}}

I have noticed that it deals less well in processing through the many articles, categories and images in Wikipedian "Purgatory" that may require action to be taken but have slipped through the "recent changes" net.

{{Dallas}}

So I have decided to operate in this murky purgatory. My main aim is not to get involved in protracted debates or to philosophize about the future nature or essential purpose of Wikipedia. I will not be found hanging out on controversial AFDs, or involved in lengthy point-by-point rebuttals of other people's views. And unfortunately I may not have as much time as I would like to perform essential first aid on salvageable articles. But by calling to wider attention articles issues that are more straightforward for the community to resolve I believe I will be making a worthwhile contribution to Wikipedia.

Please do not send me any more messages about deletion of these articles. Consider myself warned. I commented to that effect in the template's deletion [[Wikipedia:Templates_for_deletion/Log/2007_May_6#Template:Flphoto]]. I have asked an admin numerous times to deal with the problem after I received the first message from another user. They apparently did not have enough time to deal with the problem. I volunteered to help if that's what it takes to resolve the problem. [[User:Royalbroil|<font color="#000000">'''Royal'''</font><font color="#FFCC00">'''broil'''</font>]] 18:44, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

:I would GREATLY APPRECIATE if you were to do whatever is appropriate with these images. As you can tell from my tone, I am frustrated. I left a message on the talk page of the second admin to delete the template. I used a stronger tone than here, and I expressed that I was frustrated. It's bad enough to feel the loss of dozens of hard to find good images (even if justified), but it's painful to get messages over and over about it. Cheers!
