 * Hi there. Having dealt with users Kober, Ldingley and their cohorts before, let me give you a word of advice. Don't waste your breath on them. There are people with whom you can politely argue despite having totally opposite viewpoints on everything. And then there are those two... As soon as they encounter something violating their rigid points of view, they tend to start droning. Their personal favorites are "You're a xenophobe, and you have some anti-Georgian agenda" It's really funny to watch; one of them once did that to an Australian user... :))
 * Oh, did you see Ldingley's and Kober's brand new userbox?
 * 


 * That was inspired by the Saakashvili userbox. They naively assume I give a rat's behind what some irrelevant people might think of Putin :))) Take it as a true sign of democracy if you wish. If people are reacting so disproportionally offended to the criticism of their politicians, that society is hardly democratic.

Chapters 1, 2, 3 of what?
Chapters 1, 2 and 3 of what? Right now all the articles are tagged for deletion for lack of context. If this is a published book, please indicate what the book is. If this is sort of unpublished work, then it's likely to be deleted regardless. Fan-1967 17:58, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Warcraft III mission articles
I've added the "prod" template to the article Chapter 1: King Arthas, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also What Wikipedia is not and Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Chapter 1: King Arthas. If you remove the dated prod template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. &mdash; QuantumEleven 14:27, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Greece
Thanks, I just visited Greece, Turkey and Crete. Took photos of Mycenae, Troy and Knossos. I needed for my Research. fascinating places indeed.Regards. Ldingley 17:40, 7 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes you are correct and your suggestion is more suitable. It was based on the legend which Alexander favoured over all; he was the direct descendant of the great Achilles. However, later (during the Egyptian campaign) he claimed that he was the son of Zeus (Alexandros Deios). The Greek version of his name would be Neoptolemos. You are correct, in most cases "us" was a Romanized version of the Greek names. I'll find out more. Thanks for your massage, best regards to Denmark. Ldingley 17:32, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

KND episodes
I understand what you're saying, but at least for SCIENCE and AMISH, there are multiple people on the KND fan forum who have seen the episodes and have described them the same way. CARAMEL and MOON... I do honestly have a few doubts about; descriptions for those episodes were given on that same forum by only one fan in New Zealand who claims to have viewed them, but on the other hand, this person was also able to produce sound clips from another upcoming episode, GIRLFRIEND, that proved something unexpected would happen in it. Also, when directly asked about the 'spoiler' in one of those episodes, the episodes' writer, Numbuh 440, seemed as if she didn't know how to respond to the question and didn't want to confirm or deny it, but reminded that "episodes are airing early in some countries, and ... this particular fan wasn't lying about having seen Girlfriend."

I think it can be safely said that the summaries posted for SCIENCE and AMISH are correct; with CARAMEL and MOON it's hard to say, but the possibility can't be completely ruled out at this point.

Recognised versus Recognized
With regards to your changing of the former to the latter on the article List of sovereign states, I am not going to revert you since it appears that the spelling "recognized" is used elsewhere in the article and has a long history of use in the article. However, your edit summary appears to show an ignorance of the existence of non-American English. I find this hard to believe as you refer to yourself as a writer or journalist on your talk page. Nevertheless, I will draw your attention to Manual of Style (national varieties of English). Since I assume you do understand that there are -ise words in non-American English, I will leave you with the suggestion that if you correct inconsistent usage of -ise/-ize, -or/-our, or other American/Commonwealth differences in the future, you leave a proper edit summary explaining this (something along the lines of "standardizing American/British spelling to the most common [or first] used"). Edit summaries like "that's spelled recognized" will likely get your edit immediately reverted by people thinking that you either a) don't know what you're talking about, or b) are trying to push the American spelling over another spelling without any good reason.

List of sovereign states
Actually, I only want to remove Abkhazia and South Ossetia from the list. I do not know enough about Transnistria or about Nagorno Karabakh to decide whether they should be included or excluded. The reason why Transnistria also gets removed when I revert to my version of the article is because when I made my changes it was not on the list either. In any case, my point is that I know that Abkhazia and South Ossetia shouldn't be there and I do not have an opinion (due to the lack of knowledge) about other 'de facto' states.
