DYK

 * You're welcome! Congrats on the triple nom. I archived my talk page - thanks for the nudge!  Royal broil  01:12, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

ITN in 2009/April
It seems you missed the South African election.. --BorgQueen (talk) 03:31, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Shouldn't you count April Fool's, too? I was the one who updated the ITN template for the day, as I recall. --BorgQueen (talk) 04:21, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Holy mother of Kazam!
25 articles in a single hook! WoW! Incredible work, the lead is yours when that baby makes it's way on to the front page - then Sasata look out! Great work, how the hell did you managed to do all of them before they expired. I'm seriously in awe. Cheers, Paxse (talk) 15:22, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Something positive? Hell I'm impressed and amazed. That's an incredible piece (pieces!) of work (works!). You can probably understand why Gatoclass is less enthusiastic, he somehow has to squeeze all that into a tiny template designed for a max of two lines per entry! What do you think of the three part alt suggestion? Cheers, Paxse (talk) 15:56, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I think you should get credit in the hall of fame for 25 in any case, but perhaps it would look better as three successive hooks. It's bed time here in SE Asia, but I'll start reviewing some of that massive hook for DYK when I get back online tomorrow. Yep, I do orphan tagging and de-orphaning as well. I like to help out at WP:ORPHAN. No, it's not creating content (?) it's maintenance work - I do both :) There's a backlog here since Addbot stopped doing any regular tagging - feel free to help out too or here with tagging deadend pages. When I keep a couple of pages of that under control and check back for new entries I find it's a nice way to source new articles to nom for DYK as well. Cheers, Paxse (talk) 17:27, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

PRC and Taiwan
I like that. You might want to update Cross-Strait relations. --BorgQueen (talk) 00:52, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

The pigs, please? --BorgQueen (talk) 02:47, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

The Monster nom...
I've reviewed all those (please never do 25 again!) and checked them out. There are a couple of small issues with the nom - one dead reference and one just borderline for length. If you could address those small things, and note that you've done so, it might help to move things along :) Cheers, Paxse (talk) 13:34, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
 * You are very welcome. The ref is at L'Ecrivain the first ref listed. and it still comes up as 404 they must have moved the page on you! Cheers, Paxse (talk) 15:24, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

ITN for Wedding Attack
Thanks. Just to let you know, I'm actually one of the current ITN admins that forgot/was too lazy/just didn't feel the need to log in. I also do the WikiCup, so you should know who I am. Anyway, happy editing, 70.239.8.78 (talk) 01:04, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * G or I? Major ITN admin with the WC. I thought there was only one... 70.239.8.78 (talk) 01:11, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh I suppose Garden helps out here sometimes. I'm the only one in this round with ITN pts besides you, and I'm last in my pool (stuff has kept me from contributing as I would have liked). 70.239.8.78 (talk) 01:16, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * S is correct. I'm having issues logging in (?!?!), but not password-related, but cookies, so I might be back in a couple of minutes.
 * Question (please respoing on my regular talk, if you don't mind): What does DYK additional rule D1 mean, the one that says that items "rejected for In The News" can't appear on DYK? Shouldn't it be that items that HAVE appeared there? Thanks, 70.239.8.78 (talk) 01:27, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * As for table-tennis, I'm unsure of its notability outside of China. 70.239.8.78 (talk) 01:28, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Hey
That sounds like a Checkuser accusation, ;D. Yeah, soy yo. Can you answer my question? It was confusing me when I looked at it. Thanks,  Spencer T♦ Nominate! 01:36, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Btw, I like the dot in your sig. Just noticed.  Spencer T♦ Nominate! 01:44, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Featured user
Re your comment today on the featured-user discussion: I'm sure you didn't mean to imply that you find cruelty agreeable, but that's sort of the way it comes across.

I too think it's a bad idea to feature users. (Vanity, vanity ....)

Reply
In fact, you were the inspiration for the trick. Haven't you suggested yourself that I replace the boxing item with your rugby entry? I thought we had consensus that we should maintain a variety of topics on ITN whenever we could. --BorgQueen (talk) 10:24, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

12 DYK article hook on main page

 * Thank you for all of your work! I know how much work they are, and you did 12 of them at the same time! Incredible! I appreciated your smile.  Royal broil  22:46, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Re: Download's RfA
Hmm, I was unaware of that. Thanks for letting me know. Still, I feel it's inappropriate, so I might be initiating a discussion regarding that page. Cheers, – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 01:11, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Resort
Yes, a lovely picture, isn't it. I was searching for new ITN candidates and found this. (The resort is near the glacier.) But I think we are a few days late; it is dated May 8. --BorgQueen (talk) 01:33, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I just woke up; half my brain is still in the dreamland. I think another article was dated May 5 but yes, we could still use the item anyway. Feel free to nominate it; you have my support. --BorgQueen (talk) 01:50, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * They are good but I find "Read more..." a bit awkward and ambiguous. How about "Criteria" or something similar? --BorgQueen (talk) 02:22, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Hmm, Asian countries dominate today's ITN... Btw, are you having an ITN holiday today? You don't seem to work on any candidate article... I am not complaining at all, just wondered. --BorgQueen (talk) 07:13, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants
Do you think the blurb is okay? --BorgQueen (talk) 16:17, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Just checking. You know I am not a native English speaker. --BorgQueen (talk) 17:07, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I think I mentioned somewhere that I'm originally from South Korea... In South Korea, people speak Korean language. --BorgQueen (talk) 17:14, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Image
Sorry I have to go offline now; can you ask other admins at Talk:Main Page about the image problem? Thanks. --BorgQueen (talk) 03:50, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * ...I am back. I was wondering if you would be interested in updating Kuwaiti parliamentary election, 2009? For the first time in its history, women MPs have been elected. --BorgQueen (talk) 06:24, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks
Thank you for posting the comment on my user page. It is nice to get positive feedback. Is there any similar work to do with Irish tv or radio that you could suggest for me to work on? Thanks once again! CargoK user talk 16:37, 21 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Do you think the series' of You're a Star, should be split from the main page? CargoK user talk 21:47, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * If you would like to make a contribution to the splitting of series development page for You're a Star, the page is: Cargoking/Development Sandbox2. It has all been cut and pasted from the original page. Thanks and feel free to make a contribution to it, and hopefully we will have enough content to make up to page standard!

Inquiry for ITN
Hi, I just want to feature the news of former president of South Korea, Roh Moo-hyun's death today on ITN, but I'm not familiar all rules. Anyway, I added the entry to Portal:Current events/2009 May 23 and nominated it to In the news section on the Main Page/Future events, but an anon removed it without any reason twice. Did I add the wrong section? Could you help me on this? Thanks.--Caspian blue 02:44, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the kind answer. He died 23th morning in Korean time (UTC+9). I think the anon has some issue with OWN, and reverted 4 times already....so if the anon continues so, well....3RR board will be the next due.--Caspian blue 04:53, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your help and guidance. The incident makes me sad....The anon has been blocked for 3RR too. Anyway, keep up the good work!--Caspian blue 17:37, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Great work on the International reactions, btw. - Pointillist (talk) 08:24, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Stampede
Hiya, would you be interested in this? It is just your type of event. But I think it is better if you could create an article about the festival itself, rather than just the stampede. --BorgQueen (talk) 10:38, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

Mainpage Talk
Hey, I know it's fun sometimes to mess with the morons who post stupid comments on talk:main page, but I think it would be better to just revert their comments and not give them the gratification of a response. A denial of attention tends to drive them off in boredom. Random 89  23:40, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
