User talk:Buster7/Archives/2009/December

Hello
your message was rather odd. :) hope you are doing well. Good to hear from you. I have your talk page on my list, being watching what you have been doing for a while.Ikip (talk) 20:53, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

FYI

 * Watch this space!
 * Please "hold your fire". What I would appreciate is your observation of the conduct of discussion in this case.
 * I anticipate there will be multiple opportunities for you to get involved.
 * It is sometimes wise, for their own sake, to give people enough rope to hang themselves.
 * You have seen how I have acted in good faith: people challenge Goldberg on patriarchy, so I source material on him.
 * They challenge him, so I source material on his other books and on Hakim.
 * Then people attempt to hide via redirects etc, anything that could support Goldberg on patriarchy.
 * It's only a few people, and they use the technique of shooting the messenger, rather than finding alternative PsOV.
 * Very unfriendly, very not Wiki.
 * I have plenty of time, I've recently been published in the US, and I have legal advice for here and there.
 * I don't want this to blow up in the face of our wonderful project.
 * When the time is right, helping people to keep things in proportion is what you do best.
 * There are some cool and wise heads at Wiki, let's see if they triumph this time. I hope so. :) Alastair Haines (talk) 03:01, 6 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Stand down! All over. :) And how the heck are you old buddy? I will have a baby daughter soon, woohoohoo! :)) Alastair Haines (talk) 12:10, 6 December 2009 (UTC)


 * WonderfulWonderfulWonderful!!! Take plenty of precious photos. Congrats!!--Buster7 (talk) 12:38, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

Re: Various coats of arms
Hello. I am fairly knowledgeable with heraldry, so if you think of any questions please do not hesitate to ask.

I prefer paintings, but they take much too long to do for articles. I do not like the ununiform clip, art nor do i like the shield being shown while ignoring hte rest of the coat of arms, so i settled making the little paint program drawings. So now is a good chance to ask someone, how do they look? [tk]  XANDERLIPTAK  08:59, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Montessori Conversation
FROM WP:Request for Feedback...............Italic text

I have made a major revamp of the Montessori method article It is located at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Havis1/Montessori_method which is User:Havis1/Montessori method Please look it over; since I want to replace the entire existing article Montessori method Thanks.Havis1 (talk) 15:04, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Editing Wikipedia is a collaborative effort, and replacing an entire old article with another that you have been editing in your user page is against this principal. Please discuss first at Talk:Montessori method. Sole Soul (talk) 00:21, 30 December 2009 (UTC)


 * I have posted my invitation at the MM site. It has been there for weeks - with opportunity to comment; and reference to the new language.  I keep looking for response.  But nothing so far.  In addition, I posted the changes to a major "Montessori" discussion list for comment as well.  So far, just one favorable reply.  I suppose people wait until a definite "action" is taken that gets people's attention that people reply.  But I will allow another week before I act "bold" like suggested by the wiki-folk suggest.Havis1 (talk) 15:11, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * First: the MM site (if you mean an external site) and a "Montessori discussion list" do not count, enwiki announcements only count. Second: in the talk page you said "when I have a revised version ready for inspection, I will offer it here for comment", and only 2 days ago announced that you've completed your revamp, so how do you expect anybody to comment before that? Third: nobody is required to go to your user page to build the consensus there.


 * You can go and be bold if you are sure that nobody will object, but if someone reverted your changes you have to discuss it with them because even merging (which is less controversial than replacing) has to be discussed if someone objected. Sole Soul (talk) 23:51, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
