Simulation12
I came here to report User:Simulation12 as a stuborn user. Despite my advice, he always ignores it and uses teplates, bold text, etc wrong. Look at his contributions to the List of Martha Speaks episodes. Also h constantly he adds a theme song section to Martha Speak article even though we don't add theme song sections to tv articles. I was thinking that since he won't listen to me why don't you talk to him? Elbutler (talk) 21:49, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Oops
Sorry for the overwrite here...I had it on an edit screen, walked out of the room for a couple of minutes and came back to finish the post. If he is wikified, he might make a pretty good editor. ;) Cheers,⋙–Berean–Hunter—► ((⊕)) 02:20, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Taxoboxes?
Doug, I never heard back from you regarding the taxoboxes for the Ag WikiProject. What exactly do you need done? Thanks. Ecoleetage (talk) 22:04, 8 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Eco, sorry to not get back to you sooner, I was finishing up an Army class and now I'm back home but shortly off again. Basically, there are no taxoboxes for domestic animals other than dogs, cats, and horses.  See Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Agriculture/Archive_1 and Taxobox in particular, as well as the reference to breed boxes on WikiProject Agriculture under "Guidelines" and under "Infoboxes" which is a subheading of "Templates".  We were discussing a plan at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Agriculture/Infobox nearly a year ago but it fizzled.  The basic problem is that Cow should have a real Tree of Life style taxobox showing it as domesticated, but Galloway cattle should have a breed box whith emphasis on different issues altogether.  I'll be glad to discuss it with you and work on it.  But I don't have time right now to take the lead as I'm getting ready for an extended trip abroad. Together with this I'd like to see us implement the change discussed at one point on the MOS as well as the AG project regarding changing breed list names to get rid of the word "lists", but I'll explain that later.--Doug.(talk • contribs) 02:11, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay, whenever you have time, let me know and we can make it happen. I am on the road for this week and next week, though in decidedly less interesting circumstances than your travels.  Be well and be safe. Ecoleetage (talk) 02:14, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi
A little clarification would be needed about an old administrative comment of yours about user:GreekParadise. In short it was ruled that he edit warred again but others seem to ignore your comment completely. I'll explain in more detail if you come back I see that you didn't edit for a few days. Hobartimus (talk) 03:41, 27 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Let me know what the specific clarification is that is needed. I think it's fairly straightforward.  There was a violation, I warned him but I refused to block him because it would be punitive.  Everything else was more or less strong suggestion since as an administrator I can't impose punishments; though I believed at the time that he agreed to implement the suggestions.  But I'd be happy to clarify further, is this on AN?  Has the user been notified?--Doug.(talk • contribs) 18:18, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
