Your editor review[edit]

No worries! No one is perfect, and a self-revert one minute later shows that it just slipped out and was not really intended. Best, Dar-Ape 03:21, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The New Way Forward[edit]

It may sound communist, but Bush already said it. I encourage you to reconsider your vote. MPS 21:20, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I wasn't being WP:COOL, was I? I guess I took it personally when you put (what I saw as) a perfectly good article up for AFD. Someday I am going to write a wikipedia essay on how demoralizing it is to new article creators when people are trigger happy with AFDing and CSDing stubs. You know and I know that this article is going to happen eventually. I would suggest that your time on wikipedia would be better spent eliminating actual propaganda than articles needing cleanup. IMHO, in the "old days" of wikipedia, people were more patient in letting articles gravitate towards goodness rather than nipping them in the stub. Peace, MPS 22:57, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your House Template[edit]

I was wondering if it is okay for me to use the House template you have in my signature, or would you not want that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kris Classic (talk • contribs)

SNP Tryst Branch[edit]

I saw the message you left on Forthsider's talk page about this. I was actually going to Afd it, as a regional branch of a political party isn't inhenertly notable, and the article didn't sway me from that opinion. However after some investigation you may have been incorrect in saying it was a copyvio. allexperts.com is also known as about.com, and is a listed Wikipedia mirror [1]. It doesn't seem to be a fully up-to-date mirror, it seems to mirror from somewhere around August 2006 or before. I had to go back to August 11 to find the corresponding spelling mistake ("bor") in the first sentence of this article [2], which is mirrored here [3]. As the page was actually a recreation [4] it's likely it was mirrored around August, so it wasn't a copyvio I don't think. Regards. One Night In Hackney 01:17, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No I was going to Afd it anyway, just didn't get round to it yesterday and I saw it had already been purged. Thanks. One Night In Hackney 01:25, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

JS script[edit]

Add this to your js and the below to your css file. Obviously this code is not designed to create a single tab, and thus is slow, and unwieldy. It provides an excellent base for expansion though. Prodego talk 01:37, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My mistake, I forgot to include the warn tab for diffs! You need this version instead. Sorry about that! Prodego talk 01:54, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RE: On Vandal fighting and editor reviews[edit]

I use a JavaScript based monobook tool for reverting and warning vandals (see this post for more details on it). As far as the editor review, I'm doing it for both reasons mostly. I was encouraged to submit an editor review by Nina, if you look at the post on my talk page. First and foremost an editor review would be good anyways considering that the community has often given me good advice in several cases. Also, Administrator Husond and a few other users have been interested in nominating me for adminship and I have agreed to oblidge a nomination by February. I truly appreciate your interest to submit detailed editor review for me :), please have at me! Thanks.¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 01:42, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thank you for taking the time to write up my editor review and getting to it so promptly! I appreciate the advice and will definitely take it to heart :). Well, I'll see what others have to say, see ya around.¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 06:27, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of House Episodes[edit]

Thanks your finding and putting in all those dates. Keep up the good work, and we'll be a featured list in no time!
Blindman shady 01:35, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks[edit]

Thanks for leaving comments on my editor review. I agree it seems like I am ignoring advice but I am not. If you take a look at zimzalabim's old talk pages you will see I thanked him for giving me advice. Also I think it is fine to cut-and-paste things when it is just a introduction. I agree that you need to personaly talk to each person. Also I have been trying to get into editing articles on religion. I really can not do anything major but I am trying to do small edits. The reason for me "shooting down" J Di was because he was a little bit nasty by saying that he would block me if I kept on doing it. I accept advice if it is in a friendly manner. If you find any other areas where I can improve then tell me on my talk page. Peace. James, La gloria è a dio 00:41, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for offering a third opinion[edit]

Thanks for coming in to offer a third opinion here, I hope it helps resolve it, I really hate the edit->revert endless cycle. Russeasby 23:05, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is reguarding Circumnavigation btw, should probably mention that. Russeasby 23:06, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is neither here nor there, but. . .[edit]

There's nothing wrong with using "it's" as a contraction for "it has." ;) Chick Bowen 03:22, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mkill problem[edit]

I am requesting Mkill is banned from ever touching marciano page, I am requesting ((you tell him) NEVER to leave any messages on my talk page, I do not want to listen to him. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Cbrown1023#Problem_reply http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Cbrown1023&diff=prev&oldid=102725043 There is most of the explanation, you can go on my talk page. Mkill had problems with many users before, some time ago somebody contacted me to watch over marciano page, so I am doing that, to mkil, everything is vandalism, I simply do not have any more time to reply to his every argument, he has time so he can put things together and it looks good, but it's not right, my current boxingwear version should be ok. There is no redundant info, if there is, he simply kills everything else, i wonder if mkil goes for marciano killer, he also uses 58.8 ip to get his point across, when he has no point, switches off and logs on thru his ip, the guy is totally out of line. Boxingwear

Why did you make up your decision to block me for 3 days, when I was not even aware there was poll, how can you make decision without WAITINF FOR A reply, come on now man... I simply want to keep things nice and well, i mean, he provoked me towards this edit war, but i did not start it. Do you know rules, you must wait for other party to reply?! And just so you know, I will be gone tomorrow, for few days at least. But I am sure I did a good job. And then some. He was pulled into war edit, excuse me, be neutral here, will you?

With so many edits, I thought you are an administrator, i mean, you are what's the word synops, that's same? User_talk: BoxingWear

Hey there, fast replies, how do you do that, but go back to my talk page, you did not answer much... How come some are check users, some not? User_talk: BoxingWear

Hey[edit]

Sorry for reverting you here: [5] - I've reverted back to your version. It looks like you were right! My bad. --HappyCamper 00:56, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Removing primary sources[edit]

Removed all IMDB references and will continue to look for references to replace them.

User page reformat needed[edit]

Please consider reformatting your page to fit within a 1024x768 screen -- with room left over for the sidebar. That is the resolution I am currently stuck with. Your page doesn't fit. Will (Talk - contribs) 06:55, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, that's not good. I don't know anything about user page formatting, so there isn't a whole lot I can do about it. I tried to tweak it a bit by changing around the biggest number values, but that didn't work. I'm sorry. PTO 16:31, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd help you out, but your page is beyond my skills. However, today I did just happen to notice that User:Transhumanist runs his own user page school. You might ask him what can be done. In the meantime, I would suggesting changing the table with your user boxes to show only 3 columns. That is how many I can see. Will (Talk - contribs) 22:04, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Battle of Simmon's Bluff[edit]

Updated DYK query On January 28, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Battle of Simmon's Bluff, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.
