Edward M. Rice
Nicely done touches and cleanup to the new stub article, "Edward M. Rice".

I have a question. One of the additions that you made was to add the category: living persons date of birth missing. However, the date is still in the article. Should "July 28" be removed, even though it is quite well known?

Thanks, Vereverde (talk) 20:38, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
 * My bad--that was a mistake. I've removed "Date of birth missing (living people)", and have replaced it with "1960 births". --I dream of horses (T) @ 22:02, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

You deserve a barnstar
Moved barnstar here.
 * Aw, thanks. :-) --I dream of horses (T) @ 06:09, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

Coincidence
Aha, hey thought I'd just drop by to say hi or something because incidentally I noticed something. Your username caught my eye so I went straight to your userpage and I notice you obviously like horses and then I noticed your name being "Emily". There's this girl that I have quite a crush on at the moment, she's a major nerd but has an absolute passion for horses and horseriding and her name is also "Emily" and as a bonus it's her birthday today, aha. =) • GunMetal Angel  07:54, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * If her birthday is today, then obviously she isn't me, if that's what you're wondering. My birthday is in April.
 * But yeah, it is an odd coincidence, but not as odd as you might think. "Emily" is an incredibly common name, at least where I live. That, and horses are cool. --I dream of horses (T) @ 17:25, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Why would I think that? For one I live in a one-horse town, for two I know he well enough to know that she doesn't use Wikipedia and for three she's 16, I'm 17. So yeah… aha, I was only pointing out a coincidence. =b • GunMetal Angel  21:56, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, it wouldn't be the first time I was mistaken for someone else! :-) --I dream of horses (T) @ 18:59, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Poem
Hey I dream of horses. I urge you to keep fixing up the poem since I think you're a good writer. I'm kind of getting that my poetry-writing ability isn't so great anymore but I will soon (I hope) begin working on my second screenplay; the hero is an 18th century Irish woman who, like Aeneas, like Odysseus, is diverted all around Europe while she struggles to both (1) return "home" (America) and (2) found a new nation (she'll help write the Constitution) -- and she fights with a guitar-bow, shooting arrows, plus she uses it to accompany herself singing. I don't know if this one will turn out better than my earlier effort. My first screenplay "Fifteenth Reunion" is kind of corny and needs work, but hopefully the next one will be better. I've been battling to save Earl Killian and working on other projects.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 13:05, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I've been mostly vandal fighting, and doing WikiGnome work. Perhaps, the next time I start getting wikibonked, I'll add to it. If somebody else comes along, and wants to collaborate with us, I certainly will. --I dream of horses (T) @ 17:30, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Great. I'm shifting gears too, but I encourage you to add others if you think it helps. Wikibonked => unsure what this means but it feels like this is what I've been through recently.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 18:01, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Wikibonkery is when you get bored of Wikipedia, so you end up concentrating on other things.--I dream of horses (T) @ 18:08, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I've exhibited symptoms of Wikibonkery off and on, but my doctor won't prescribe anything.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 18:17, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps it is a sign of having a life. --I dream of horses (T) @ 18:27, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 * :) --Tomwsulcer (talk) 19:41, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

Re vandalism warning at Hawthorne String Quartet
Hello there. Re the vandalism warning you left on this user's talk page. I think it was an error. He's very new to Wikipedia, editing for a college project. His excessive use of capital letters in the headings may have looked like vandalism, but all he was doing was adding a discography and list of ensemble members. Do you think it would be possible to strike the warning? Best, Voceditenore (talk) 16:55, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

Dating revamp
Hi, I'm working on a revamp of the article Dating with a Dating -- proposed expansion in a sandbox. I'm looking for feedback. If you have any ideas or suggestions let me know. --Tomwsulcer (talk) 02:08, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Blocked for vandalism?
Hello, I just saw that my IP address was blocked back on April 16 & 28, 2010. I first got this IP on April 30 from Verizon, now Frontier. Please be aware that most Frontier customers do not have static addresses; blocking someone today could cause someone else to be blocked tomorrow. I don't know who edited the Tecumseh page, but it wasn't me.71.121.210.47 (talk) 18:39, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
