Cuttyhunk
First off, thank you so much. You did a lot of work, and it really shows.

However, I feel I should ask one question: you only cited one source, and much of the language in your update feels a bit middle-of-last-century; is the update your wording or the book's? If the latter, it's not all that bad. I'd be happy to take some other references and re-work what you have into something that's not a direct derivative of any of them, but keeps the facts that you added.

Either way, thanks! -Harmil 30 June 2005 01:54 (UTC)

Cuttyhunk
Thanks for the compliments! I did use one written source (now way out of print), but also personal knowledge of the island for a lot of the article. I was not sure if I could source myself. I intend to update the page myself, drawing on some other web-based resources, but if you would like to edit it, that's great - I suppose that's what Wikipedia is all about.

I love Cuttyhunk, and wanted to make sure there was more than just a stub on Wikipedia.

I look forward to checking out your pages - it looks like you have an interest in Cuttyhunk and New Bedford, as do I. CrimsonLine June 30, 2005 02:19 (UTC)

Joseph in the Quran
Hi, first of all I'd like to acknowledge the hard work you put into making wikipedia a good accurate source of information for the whole world to see.

Just with regards to your last edit on the topic of the prophet Joseph in arabic literature (the Quran), I just wanted to clarify that the Quran is believed by every Muslim to be the word of God (Allah), therefore he is the rightful author of the book, which is revieled to the prophet Mohamed as a revalation by Gabriel. The prophet Mohamed was unable to be the writer of the book either, mainly due to his inability to read and write - hence why the Quran is believed by Muslims to be the prophet Mohamed's miracle.

Thank you very much for your patience and for listening - May God reward you for it.

I completely understand where you're coming from, Hasooni. The original text said that the quote was "according to Mohamed", the edit changed it to "according to Allah", and I realized that one was unacceptable to Muslims, while the other was unacceptable to non-Muslims. In order to create a Neutral Point of View, I simply changed the text to eliminate a reference to exactly who the author was. The question is incidental to the point of the paragraph.

CrimsonLine 20:51, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

I understood the change and its neutral perspective, thanks very much for that, but I just wanted to clarify the point to avoid a misconception of the religion and that's why I followed it up with a message to you. Thanks again :)

420 (cannabis culture)
Do you have a citation for your recent addition to the 420 article? "Cultural references" in the article must show an explicit connection to cannabis culture (or else the references do not fit criteria for inclusion). — Hiplibrarianship 13:24, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * No, I don't. I was there, and it happened, but I don't have a reference. If those are the criteria, then it should be deleted. CrimsonLine 13:00, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Audio theatre an article to audio dramas
Please if you have time and you know anything to it (I have seen that you have made edits in the article area which owns relations on it), please look on the article Audio theatre, somebody placed a erase discussion on it. after we have had a merge discussion. It would be interesting what you would say to the merge and the delete discussion. And possibly it could help to contact other people that they should help also. )-: Merry Xmas --Soenke Rahn (talk) 17:43, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
