Mediation
Hi, I'm your friendly mediation cabalist, here to help you try and resolve this dispute you're having in the nicest possible way :) I've left a note on User:Hogeyes page and will shortly be leaving a note in the article. As a side note, please leave edit summaries, it makes it easier for people to follow what is going on and reduces possible mistakes :) - FrancisTyers 01:09, 7 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, do you mind if I archive the googology bit of the article I don't think its really helping us with the mediation effort. If you disagree please shout on my talk page or email me. Thanks - FrancisTyers 20:31, 7 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Hey, I archived all the discussion as it wasn't getting us anywhere. I'm sure you feel that too, I hope this makes it easier for you to rejoin the mediation effort. I'm really looking for sources here. See the sources section. It might be worth looking at how other encyclopaedias treat anarchism and how Wikipedia treats philosophies/movements in general - for precedent. - FrancisTyers 18:53, 8 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi again, we're obviously getting nowhere with me mediating, one page of discussion in one day is not really helping. I've tagged this over to User:NicholasTurnbull, he'll be your mediator from now on. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. - FrancisTyers 23:44, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Pierre Joseph Proudhon
I saw you speak French-4, I only have French-1. Perhaps you might like to help with the translation of the French article on fr:Pierre Joseph Proudhon? It seems to be much more comprehensive than the English one. I've made more of a start at Pierre-Joseph_Proudhon/Temp, but my French really sucks, feel free to mop up if you have time and just checking the quality of the translation would be good too :) - FrancisTyers 01:38, 9 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I was surprised to see stuff like this without citation:


 * Late in his life Proudhon became more conservative and reactionary, eventually embracing a kind of liberalism. He no longer advocated the abolition of government, and instead argued for increasing its powers while also strenghthening property in order to counter-balance it.


 * Maybe a reading of WP:CITE is in order? - FrancisTyers 01:45, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Archive1
Hi, you seem to have created your talk page archive at the top-level Archive1, rather than User talk:AaronS/Archive1. mordemur 02:15, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Heya
First of all, I fixed the archive link at the top of your page here. ;)
 * Edit: Someone beat me to it!

Second of all, it was because of stubbornness. I figure that I have managed 20,000 edits and prolonged sanity on here specifically because I did not get involved in hopeless political fights, and that includes ones with people I agree with that are nonetheless too rabid and exaggerative and such. However, he did say some accurate things, and I tempered the wrong/slightly wrong things as well as I could, then I removed the page from my watchlist and went back to making maps and writing about hurricanes.

As for Hogeye, he already had an RfC (here) brought against him, and was previously blocked for a month for constant 3RR warring. So there's precedent if you want to take the conflict resolution process to RfM (as may have already been done, since I see a mediator at the top of your talk page) or even RfAr. (ps, vote golbez. ;)

You say you trust RJII's expertise, but in my discussions with him, he would never admit if he was in fact an anarcho-capitalist. So.. I dunno. :)

My dealings with RJII were basically, I'd try to simplify a statement (I was working only on the intro of the article, I tend to think those are very important, and its intro was much too long, though maybe it needed to be) and he'd put something in that's far too broad, like saying all ancaps believe in retaliatory force, which is of course incorrect, some are hardcore pacifists, or comments about fraud, or what not. However, after these first few edits, they tended to be better, and I didn't want to get into an argument. Or are you hoping to get some help on the anarchism article? I can look at it and see if anything is wrong. --Golbez 02:30, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Email
Hi. I'd like to talk to you in private about something. Could you allow email messages to be sent to you via wikipedia? If necessary, you could register a free account with yahoo or gmail for this purpose... Thank you! -- Nikodemos (f.k.a. Mihnea) 09:42, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
 * So, um, did you get my email? I sent it some days ago... -- Nikodemos (f.k.a. Mihnea) 21:06, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok, I sent it again, with an ALLCAPS title. :) -- Nikodemos (f.k.a. Mihnea) 12:26, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, please reply to the email address I sent it from... -- Nikodemos (f.k.a. Mihnea) 08:26, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Mediation Cabal status update - Anarchism
Dear AaronS: I'm Nicholas Turnbull, mediator and coordinator down at the Mediation Cabal. This is a status update regarding a mediation request that you are involved in, Mediation Cabal/Cases/2006-01-07 Anarchism. I have written my initial view on the case and would be grateful if you would please consider what I have written there; in particular, I'd be grateful if you would please carry out the task I asked for to write a single sentence overview of what you think is wrong with the article, so that we can compare viewpoints to come up with a collective solution. Thank you very much for your participation. If you require any assistance relating to this matter please do not hesistate to contact me. Best regards, NicholasTurnbull | (talk) 20:54, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for all the hard work on the anarchism page. Sorry that it has been so unrewarding. - Nihila 03:15, 19 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Indeed, Aaron, your hard work is appreciated. Please don't think otherwise. -- Nikodemos (f.k.a. Mihnea) 12:26, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Finally RJII reveals himself (sort of)
RJII obviously has some hidden agenda, just look here:. BTW, anarchism is no longer protected, and if RJII leaves soon, like he is suggesting, or gets banned, like I'm working on, you may wish to come back to the page, because you have a lot of knowledge we can use to improve the article. Anyway, even if you don't, thanks for the support, things have been frustrating (I have distanced myself from the article a bit, but not completely removed myself) and for contributing your knowledge. Hopefully everything works out for the best. Your wikifriend (if you want me to be), The Ungovernable Force 06:59, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

New Wave of American Heavy Metal
Hi there, and thanks for participating in Wikipedia.

I notice that you posted a new nomination for the deletion of this article on WP:AFD. I just wanted to bring two pieces of information to you about this.

Firstly, when you renominate an article that has already gone through AFD, you cannot reuse the old AFD subpage. You need to use a different page - instead of, use 2nd (or 3rd, 4th, etc.) on the page you wish to delete. The rest of the deletion process is as normal. See also Guide to deletion.

Secondly, you'll probably have noticed that the article is gone again and it hasn't taken a five-day AFD. This is because our criteria for speedy deletion (general criteria #4) allows for the speedy deletion of material that has been properly deleted. In the future, if you'd like to delete this kind of recreated material, just slap the db-repost tag on the article and it will be deleted, assuming it's pretty much the same as the previous content.

Thanks again for your good work! Stifle 09:28, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Individualist anarchism and anarcho-capitalism
Thank you for your comments on Articles for deletion/Individualist anarchism and anarcho-capitalism. I have closed the debate as no consensus. Please note that this does not preclude further discussion of eventual disposition of the article, including keeping, merging, redirection, or a further nomination for deletion. Again, thanks for your comments, especially in not responding in kind to incivil comments made in your direction. -- Jonel | Speak 03:42, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Merrimacport.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Merrimacport.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Longhair 02:28, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Long time no talk
I've been gone for a while, and have tried to avoid the anarchism page since it is such a mess (protected again I see). Is there anything major happening on the page? I saw that RJII and Hogeye are banned, but hogeye doesn't seem to care.

On another topic, have you been paying attention to the userbox scandals? I thought since you are an anarchist, and probably quite into consensus as a wikiprinciple, I thought I would direct you to this. Cheers! The Ungovernable Force 07:08, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Pirates versus Ninjas
Aaron, I'm writing to notify you that I have removed the speedy tag from Pirates versus Ninjas. While it is admittedly not high-profile, it is still a well-known internet meme, and at the very least deserves debate at Articles for deletion. If you still feel it is unworthy of Wikipedia feel free to list it at AfD. Thanks! -- stillnotelf   has a talk page  22:32, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
