URLs are website adresses
For example: "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:I_dream_of_horses". --Niemti (talk) 10:15, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I know what a URL is. I'm using Wikipedia jargon. Please refer to your own talkpage when you have new messages. Thank you. --I dream of horses (T) @ 10:20, 3 July 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm also using "Wikipedia jargon".
 * This is a bare URL: "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:I_dream_of_horses"
 * This is not a bare URL: "I dream of horses' Wikipedia user talk page"

--Niemti (talk) 10:23, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Not in the context of an inline citation. In the context of an inline citation, the latter is a "bare URL". --I dream of horses (T) @ 10:34, 3 July 2012 (UTC)


 * "A bare URL is a URL cited as a reference for some information in an article without any accompanying information on the linked page. In other words, it is just the text out of the URL bar of your browser copied and pasted into the Wiki text, inserted between the ref tags or simply provided as an external link." Please first read stuff and only then try to teach others. --Niemti (talk) 10:37, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
 * You don't understand. You also need to have information about when the website was accessed/looked at/read/whatever. Otherwise, the tag Linkrot still applies.--I dream of horses (T) @ 10:41, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

No, you don't understand. But feel free to read this quote from Bare URLs as many times as you need until you understand what "a bare URL" is. Bye. Oh, and you can also actually read Template:Cleanup-link rot. --Niemti (talk) 10:47, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
 * What I'm reacting to in particular is "Please consider adding full citations so that the article remains verifiable.". A simple, albeit non-bare URL doesn't occur to me as a "full citation". --I dream of horses (T) @ 02:07, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
 * And you can "consider adding full citations" all you want, nobody is stopping you. EOT. --Niemti (talk) 02:38, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
 * What does EOT mean? I dream of horses (T) @ 03:14, 4 July 2012 (UTC)


 * EOT stands for end of topic/thread/transmission/etc. (converstaion). --Niemti (talk) 03:17, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Aw, thanks for answering my question about the abbreviation. I dream of horses (T) @ 03:20, 4 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi there, sorry to bump in uninvited, but did you ever try this template: It's automatic and superb for what I think you want to to. Lotje ツ (talk) 19:34, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I think it's the same as linkrot, but thanks! --I dream of horses (T) @ 20:46, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

No that is a sandbox for an article I am writing
As per your comment a few minutes ago.--R-41 (talk) 21:42, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, you didn't create it in userspace, but in mainspace. I moved it to your userspace. --I dream of horses (T) @ 21:43, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

Mecklenburg Switzerland and Lake Kummerow Nature Park
Hi, I'm just trying to understand why you deleted images from this article. I translated it from German Wiki at de:Naturpark Mecklenburgische Schweiz und Kummerower See, which used the images I originally had in the sizes given. This may be just a learning exercise for me. Cheers. --Bermicourt (talk) 06:07, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I just thought the images were overwhelming the article, and were kind of distracting from it, like there was more "image" than "article". I meant for them to be added back as the article grew in size. That's all.
 * If you wish, you can add them back immediately. I won't mind. --I dream of horses (T) @ 06:10, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
 * That's fine, I get the logic and am happy to leave it for now. I may reinstate them as a small gallery later, rather than dominating the text. Meanwhile I'm off to translate more Ore Mountains articles! Have a nice day! --Bermicourt (talk) 06:15, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
 * You have fun, too. --I dream of horses (T) @ 06:15, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Alliance against Hunger and Malnutrition
Wait, what involvement do I have in the involvement of the speedy deletion? I do not recall being the one who created the page. Can you please explain why you left the message on my talk page? --Thenewguy34 (talk) 19:30, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I proposed it for a procedural deletion, not a speedy deletion. I know it might'e got confused when the article was speedily deleted instead. --I dream of horses (T) @ 04:42, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

ARB
Thanks for the ARB. You can tell me if there is any other article to rescue. I'll try to help! -- Tito Dutta  ✉  05:22, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

Christian Identity
I see you warned the IP about this. In fact, the IP was correct and I'm sorry I didn't fix it earlier. I've sourced it now. Dougweller (talk) 09:53, 9 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Aw, thanks. --I dream of horses (T) @ 01:20, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
