DYK nom for Aboriginal title in the Marshall Court
Can you please explain what you mean by "internationalize, plz"? I must admit that I am baffled about how to remedy this. Savidan 18:12, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Template:Cincinnati riots
I saw you fixed the category on this one. Cincinnati riots have nothing to do with Protected areas of Nigeria as far as I know, although the last similar template I started does. Oops! You also put in redlinks. Somewhere, can't remember where, there is a guideline that says navigational templates should not have redlinks. I seem to be on a roll doing Cincinnati Riot articles, so probably the redlinks will all turn blue soon. I will leave them. Not important at all, maybe something to remember. :~) Aymatth2 (talk) 00:22, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't feel strongly on the subject at all. I came across the guideline with Template:Nigerian Senators of the 6th National Assembly, which was about 98% redlinks, got interested in the subject and spent a lot of time turning all the redlinks blue - a lot of stubs. Then I started Template:Nigerian Senators of the 5th National Assembly, which is still full of redlinks, and may be for a long time. If the navbar redlink should obviously lead to an article, I can't see a problem with it. I suppose there are pros and cons. The guideline exists, but in my view it really is not important at all. Aymatth2 (talk) 00:53, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Hang on. My riots have great pictures, mostly, at least 1884 does. Stories with a beginning, middle and an end, action, controversy... what else does an article need? Does it have to be about a subject people may actually be interesting in? Not niche or borderline? That could wipe out 99% of Wikipedia. Aymatth2 (talk) 01:08, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * O.k. The riots are obviously cromulent. Let's leave it at that. Aymatth2 (talk) 02:53, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

WikiCup 2010 October newsletter
The 2010 WikiCup is over!

Also, congratulations to, who withdrew from the competition with an impressive 2685 points earlier in this round.

Prizes will also be going to those who claimed the most points for different types of content in a single round.

Winning the featured list prize is, for six featured lists in round 1. Winning the picture and sound award is, for four featured pictures in round 3.

Finally, winning the in the news award is, for nineteen articles in the news in round three.

The WikiCup has faced criticism in the last month – hopefully, we will take something positive from it and create a better contest for next year. Like Wikipedia itself, the Cup is a work in progress, and ideas for how it should work are more than welcome on the WikiCup talk page and on the scoring talk page. Also, people are more than welcome to sign up for next year's competition on the signup page. Well done and thank you to everyone involved – the Cup has been a pleasure to run, and we, as judges, have been proud to be a part of it. We hope that next year, however the Cup is working, and whoever is running it, it will be back, stronger and more popular than ever. Until then, goodbye and happy editing!

Lactarius volemus
Hi Circeus, any chance you'd be willing to check and proofread/comment on the above article that J Milburn and I intend to take to FAC? Sasata (talk) 07:35, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks
I sincerely mean this... thank you for your help with the list of cutaneous conditions, and your work on Wikipedia in general. With regard to Caripito itch and Lepidopterism, I think you bring up a valid point that these terms could be synonymous, so I think merging them into a single article is a good idea. I have also reflected this in the list with the following entry: "Caripito itch (Lepidopterism)" However, not all cases of moth dermatitis or caterpillar dermatitis are due to encounters with Lepidoptera, therefore, I think these terms should have their own stubs and list entries. However, if you want to discuss this further at WT:MED and get more community feedback, I think that would be fine. Thoughts? ---My Core Competency is Competency (talk) 00:51, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I have been continuing to read on this subject. Perhaps all these moth and caterpillars are part of the Lepidoptera order, and, in that case "moth dermatitis" and "caterpillar dermatitis" would be synonymous with the term "Lepidopterism".  Maybe we could post a thread at WT:MED and confirm this.  Regardless, thanks again! ---My Core Competency is Competency (talk)

Biases
I am picking on you at the AfD. You are an excellent and careful editor. --Kleopatra (talk) 05:23, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

2010 in LGBT rights
have you seen the talk page? I have duly responded to each thing. You admitted there are things taht should not be there and you wholescare reverted it. you cant come along suddenly and expect things to be your way or the high way. WP:BRD you were reverted discuss, i did and i discussed. see the talk page and see that ive been the most recent respondent. Consensus cant wait forever, however it can change and you are perfectly in your liberty to answer them. i am very willing to discuss each of your concerns piecemeal, and im sure we can come to some agreement (it seems we already agree on something)

Furthermore, there are additions that you admitted adn others did on talk that are not rights. Ill continue on the talk apge. (put my words on talk page (thanks for me reminding me, changes look more obvious now ;))(Lihaas (talk) 19:53, 19 December 2010 (UTC)).
 * If you dont even see the talk then that is your problem. You ahve a problem, you want to reinsert, you discuss it. Wikipedia doesnt owe you a living.(Lihaas (talk) 21:26, 19 December 2010 (UTC)).
 * Dont think yuou need to start an ANI if you have abjectly refused to the talk page and i ahve answered all queries there.(Lihaas (talk) 22:16, 19 December 2010 (UTC)).

Helixanthera schizocalyx
You are correct to note that there is no peer-reviewed journal article about the species yet. While the creation of an article does not require a peer-reviewed source, In the News candidates appear to be held to a higher standard - so you may wish to comment here if you haven't already.

μηδείς (talk) 05:12, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Already did, and opposed on several other grounds. I agree about the scientific article not being needed. I was just pointing it to avoid people going about searching for the publishing article (which normally is out primary source for newly discovered organisms), and so that they might hopefully keep an eye out for it when it finally does get published . Circéus (talk) 05:22, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Understood, thanks.μηδείς (talk) 12:01, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

2010 in LGBT rights, redux
Hey there. I know you abandoned this article earlier, but I feel like some progress is being made. I thought you might want to take another look? NW ( Talk ) 02:42, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Re : Well, I'll do my best. Might be a challenge though, with just me. Hopefully someone will respond to the RFC. NW ( Talk ) 04:07, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Suillus spraguei
Hi Circeus, if you have the time or the inclination, I'd appreciate it if you could give the above a look-over to see if I've missed anything obvious (or subtle, for that matter) before sending it to FAC. Hope you're enjoying your holidays. Sasata (talk) 21:46, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Agumonadv.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Agumonadv.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Courcelles 03:09, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Years
I noticed you changed this ... the reason I went to this year-first format was out of my desire to show the date in the taxobox (makes it easier to sort taxonomical changes chronologically, and I like to have this information displayed) and from your advice here. Are we gonna stick with this ICBN format? Sasata (talk) 17:57, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
