MattyGum=BobbyJ?
These users both vandalized Image:ALMP_pub.jpg; the revision by MattyGum was a different pic of the same crater-faced kid used by BobbyJ, leading me to believe this may be the same person. BobbyJ has been blocked indefinitely; given MattyGum's continued vandalism today of Lindsay Lohan's page, at least a warning is in order, I would think. In any event, I'm watching this emotional nine-year-old...

Is Punk'd "irrelevant"?
I'm in the middle of a dispute with backburner001 over the Punk'd reference at Lindsay Lohan. This user says it's irrelevant. I laid out the case for its relevance&mdash;with a rewrite for clarity&mdash;and he deleted it again. His response: "I did my part – I removed content I felt was not significant and I made suggestions for improvement when I was asked for them. If you are interested in working together to fix this problem, do your part and improve the Punk’d reference or give me a legitimate reason for keeping the reference that was in there before." (Essentially, "You think it should stay? Prove it to me and me alone," which sounds awfully close to self-appointed WikiGodhood, but I've been called dramatic already. More on point, "working together" to this editor means he deletes it, but someone else has to "fix" it.) This user's page includes as a goal, "[r]emove irrelevant/trivial content", but a quick look at his edit history is telling: on 30 January, he removed from WP:MOS a "reference to naming conventions for Mormonism"; on 19 February, he deleted "2 paragraphs" from Hiram College "to keep concise". Since then, every deletion of material has been a Punk'd reference, from Lindsay Lohan, Avril Lavigne, Jena Malone, Beyoncé Knowles, Mandy Moore, Chris Klein (actor) and Proof (rapper). After we blasted each other's antagonism (real or imagined), I threatened him with a WP:3RR war and mutual blocking, and backburner001 then agreed to stop removing the reference pending the discussion that results from my Request for Comment. No matter the outcome, your input would be very much appreciated. Radio Kirk   talk to me  21:24, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

My reply to your comment on the Jena Malone page is posted. -- backburner001 00:12, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

JAG mission statement change
I changed to just allow it to be defined by JAG as the section of the constitution would have to be made by the BFA and the wording you added suggested that wouldn't be your intent. - Jord 18:50, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Hello
Hi I'm a new Wikipedian from Natick... just popped in to say hello to a neighbor:

Merlinus (talk)

I was recently married to my lovely wife; We have lived together for several years already... -
 * Hi I Am Marc:
 * We love cats (3 currently own us)... Jeffy(15), Echo(6) & Gizmo(3). All sleep with us in the big bed and no room to move an inch.
 * I was Disabled in a 1993 (Coma)/ and am very slowly recovering. It's tough going out sometimes, though with friends I still do. I have a few supportive friends.
 * I am an "Unenrolled voter." Democrat/ Republicans, I don't care, whoever serves makes my life better in the long run I vote for!
 * Avid reader. Has collection of many hundreds of rare books. Especially Science Fiction and Fantasy.
 * Avid Music collector (2,500 albums).

I am what I am I'm strongly opinionated about disabled peoples' rights and jobs for American citizens who have trouble finding minimum wage jobs in my state today and support Universal health care, I would be dead if I did not have it. I am an idiot about Internet social skills. I hope that the Immigration Reform bill will protect disabled citizens who wish to work like myself first before considering allowing new people to come here. I was searching for an internet forum to be my outlet to express my needs, but found that Wikipedia is not best suited for that. I'm brushing up on Wikipedia's rules of conduct, and slowly starting to begin contributing again. -- Current book and CD' ==

C. J. Cherryh articles
Hi Azathar. Sorry we wound up on opposite sides of the Erik Mona afd issue. Interesting, though, D&D and science fiction are two of my own personal interests, so we share some common interests at least! Your page references Asimov and Cherryh, who are two of my favorite sci-fi authors as well. If you're knowledgeable about Cherryh's works, your contributions would be most welcome to any of the pages in Category:C. J. Cherryh -- there's lots of work to do on some of those articles!
