Here are conversations I've had with users on pages other than my own:

Christmas Article
(Originally posted at User talk:Pádraic_MacUidhir) As you noticed, I was eyeing the Christmas article as well, and I don't think the anon's edits were vandalism. In fact, I think most of them were improvements. Christmas IS celebrated by non-Christian populations in Western, non-predominantly Christian countries. Take Japan as an example. (Well, it might not be considered by some to be "Western," but hopefully you get the example.) Thanks for adding my edits back in though. -- Hinotori(talk) 11:24, 25 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Completely agreed. His/her earlier edits were a bit too wishy-washy, though. They seemed to want to imply that the holiday has become more secular than it really is, which tells me that they are writing from an (at least vaguely) Western/American POV rather than a world-wide Christian POV. The person's most recent edits are a significant improvment, so I will probably feel all right about leaving the article as it is when I finally slither off to bed in a few minutes. No problem on re-adding your edits- that bit of expansion was definitely needed to give the alternate date some context.


 * Oh, and sorry am I for misspelling your username in my edit summary. I was in a bit of a hurry at the time in order to finish before another edit conflict happened. ;)

 * Ah ok. I only saw his most recent ones which explains a lot.


 * Yep. :)→  P . Mac Uidhir  (t)  (c)  11:47, 25 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Don't worry about misspelling my name. If I had a nickel... ;)


 * Yes, but I have little excuse, as I value my sense for precision and careful nature in text editing. I should have taken more time in the editing.→  P . Mac Uidhir  (t)  (c)  11:47, 25 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Oh, and yes. I'd say 86 reviews, 350 BBS posts, and 1526 Blams/Protects constitutes being a "fan." Probably in excess of healthy levels. :D Merry Christmas.

 * An even bigger fan than I!

 * If I'm not being nosy, do you have a screenname there? :)
 * -- Hinotori(talk) 11:49, 25 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Not yet, no. I really should do so, though. I was introduced to that site's content by a good friend in 1998 CE, and have been avidly enjoying it since that time. If I set up an account, I will let you know.
 * You can be as nosy as you wish, Hinotori. I always tell people exactly how much that I feel they should/need to know, and I am nosy by nature as well, so feel free to be the same. ;)

 * Wow. 7 years and no account. That's OLD sk00l. :D I first came to it my freshman year in college, and the site's been a great stress reliever these last 3 years, though I haven't been visiting the site all that much (except to deposit experience, because I'm insane). And I would indeed be interested in hearing if you set up an account, so thanks for that. I tend to be rather nosy myself, so I try to err on the side of caution. ;) By the way, I'm on AIM often under the name "ShinriVeritas" or "HinotoriZ." On MSN, I'm hinotoriz@hotmail.com. Feel free to drop a line. (Don't bother emailing the account though. It's for junk only. :D)
